Local or Standard?

Companies that move into a new country are often faced with a dilemma of adjusting to local practices or enforcing the company’s standard practice. Not all companies and not all countries will come up with the same solution.

  • Initial post – research an international company that has faced such a dilemma. Document the dilemma and explain if they adjusted to local or used standard practices (yes, you have to take a stance!). Be sure to cite at least one internet reference for each company to help your peers respond.
