Abstract
Rotterdam School of Management is less than a mile away from the biggest cargo port in the world. During 2003 this Port of Rotterdam handled 327 million metric tons of cargo. Over 29,000 sea-going vessels docked at the port. Over 7 million containers ("TEU's" i.e. 20 foot equivalent units) were carried through an area less than the size of the center of New York: 20,000 containers each day! (Port Authority of Rotterdam, 2004).
