Books by John Viney

John Viney is Chairman of Heidrick and Struggles International one of the world's largest executive search firms. Having placed Chairmen and Chief Executives in some of Europe's largest companies he has already started the task of reshaping Europe's business culture. "In a period when much is written about the decline of the nation state only Europe offers an alternative paradigm for international government. Nowhere else in the world is there a similar model. As a huge literature accumulates on the subject of culture, it is Europe which can be seen as a pioneer. When the notion of the global corporation is taking over from that of the multi--national, it is only European business which appears to be grappling with the implications for governance. The signs are that Europe, having learnt the lessons of the twentieth century, is taking the twenty--first seriously." From The Culture Wars
