Lastly, Part Three presents a range of case studies from small and medium companies and NGOs in Poland and gives an outlook on the future development.Readers will benefit from an in-depth discussion of the opportunities and challenges that businesses and organizations in Poland are currently facing with regard to traditional national values and the influx of new cultural and social dimensions and patterns produced aby international businesses entering the Polish market.
