Abstract:

This paper provides a case study analysis of an ongoing international collaborative venture (ICV) between a British and a Russian higher education (HE) institution. The paper provides evidence of how knowledge migration and management learning, have been achieved in the partnership under study through trust, commitment, forbearance, diplomacy and other soft communication skills. It offers an alternative perspective to the findings of Gilbert and Gorlenko (1999), who explain how a similar partnership foundered.
