Consumers, Trade Barriers, and Trade Agreements
• Why do trade barriers and free trade agreements matter to consumers?– Trade agreements increase choices,
competition, and purchase power…decrease prices.
• Why do trade barriers and free trade agreements matter to managers?– Free trade agreements create new business
opportunities……but also intensify competition.

Going Global
• Once a company has decided that it will go global, it must decide how to go global. – For example, if you decide to sell in Singapore,
should you try to find a local business partner who speaks the language, knows the laws, and understands the customs and norms of Singapore’s culture?
– Or should you simply export your products from your home country?
– What do you do if you are also entering Eastern Europe, perhaps starting in Hungary?
– Should you use the same approach in Hungary that you used in Singapore?

Consistency or Adaptation
• Global consistency– when a multinational company has offices,
manufacturing plants, and distribution facilities in different countries and runs them all using the same rules, guidelines, policies, and procedures
• Local adaptation– when a multinational company modifies its rules,
guidelines, policies, and procedures to adapt to differences in foreign customers, governments, and regulatory agencies

Global New Ventures
• Companies used to evolve slowly from small operations selling in their home markets to large businesses selling to foreign markets.
• As companies went global, they usually followed the phase model of globalization.
• Recently, however, three trends, as shown on this slide, have combined to allow companies to skip the phase model. – Quick, reliable air travel
– Low-cost communication technologies– Critical mass of experienced businesspeople

in laws and government policies that directly affect the way foreign companies conduct business.

Cultural Differences
• National culture is the set of shared values and beliefs that affects the perceptions, decisions, and behavior of the people from a particular country.
• The first step in dealing with culture is to recognize that there are meaningful differences
• Professor Geert Hofstede research shows that there are five consistent cultural dimensions across countries
![Page 33: Chapter 8 Global Management © 2015 Cengage Learning MGMT7.](https://reader035.fdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022081504/56649e0b5503460f94af3759/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Becoming Aware of Cultural Differences
Five Dimensions of Culture• Power distance
–the extent to which people in a country accept that power is distributed unequally in society and organizations
• Individualism–the degree to which societies believe that individuals should be self-sufficient
• Masculinity/femininity–the difference between highly assertive and highly nurturing cultures

Becoming Aware of Cultural Differences
• Uncertainty avoidance–the degree to which people in a country are uncomfortable with unstructured, ambiguous, unpredictable situations.
• Short-term/long-term orientation– addresses whether cultures are oriented to the present and seek immediate gratification or to the future and defer gratification.

Spouse, Family, and Dual-Career Issues
• Adaptability screening– assesses how well managers and
families are likely to adjust to a foreign culture
Language and cross-cultural training for the family is just as, if not more,
important than training for employees.
