| Tiivistelmä: | International product differences have always been examined by bringing managers from the relatively weak performer to factories in the best economies. Early studies concerning the the poor performance of the manufacturing sector in Northern Ireland provided the background to a set of exchange visits by managers in the Northern Ireland and German clothing industries. In the recent study the results of the visit of a senior German manager into factories in the low productivity area are reported. The Irish managers made a return visit to four German factories. Areas of agreement and difference are analyzed in the light of research evidence on international comparative productivity. |
