Margaret Huebner: Building the
Human Resources Function at Oman’s Port of Salalah
In recognition of International Women's Day on March 8th, our case of the month is about an American woman who restructured the human resources department at a global shipping port in the Middle East. The fact that Margaret Huebner was female added more complexity to her assignment. But, she found a way to navigate the cultural differences and accomplish her task. There are many lessons to learn from this case, especially for women entrepreneurs and women in business.
