The Palestinian Executive by Farid Muna & Grace C. Khoury

Released in September 2012, The Palestinian Executive (Ashgate) is a book that is based on field research in the West Bank and Gaza, which involved interviewing 110 executives from 63 publicly and family-owned companies. Using a cross-cultural and contextual approach, the authors examine the leadership styles of successful senior executives and managers living and working under challenging conditions in Palestine.

The book explores the impact of culture, environmental pressures, and harsh circumstances on doing business in Palestine; sheds light on the leadership, interpersonal, and decision-making styles of successful Palestinian executives; provides specific recommendations on how to develop future business leaders.
