Introduction
Are you an entrepreneur? Do you have experience in starting or managing a business of any size? Do you have a heart for
ministry in the workplace? Why not start business in abroad?
As the pace of globalization quickens so does the race into newmarkets²with the promise of large, wealthy emerging marketstoo attractive to ignore.
But success in this race does not necessarily go to the swiftest.Rather, it goes to companies that make the right moves at theright times. Location is still important, but timing is the name of this retail game.

Why Delegation
�Everyone knows about delegation. Most managers hear about it in thecradle as mother talks earnestly to the baby-sitter: "just enjoy the television... this is what you do if ... if there is any trouble call me at ..."; people have
been writing about it for nearly half a millennium; yet few actuallyunderstand it.
�Delegation underpins a style of management which allows your staff touse and develop their skills and knowledge to the full potential. Without
delegation, you lose their full value.
�Delegation is primarily about entrusting your authority to others. Thismeans that they can act and initiate independently; and that they assumeresponsibility with you for certain tasks. If something goes wrong, youremain responsible since you are the manager; the trick is to delegate in
such a way that things get done but do not go (badly) wrong.
8/6/2019 France Delegation
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/france-delegation 8/42
Objective:The objective of delegation is to get the job done by someone else. Not
just the simple tasks of reading instructions and turning a lever, but alsothe decision making and changes which depend upon new information.
With delegation, your staff have the authority to react to situations withoutreferring back to you.
To enable someone else to do the job for you, you must ensure that:
�They know what you want�They have the authority to achieve it�They know how to do it.
These all depend upon communicating clearly the nature of the task, theextent of their discretion, and the sources of relevant information and
knowledge.
8/6/2019 France Delegation
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/france-delegation 9/42
What to delegate
�There is always the question of what to delegate and whatto do yourself, and you must take a long term view on this:
you want to delegate as much as possible to develop youstaff to be as good as you are now.
�Once you have delegated everything, what do you do then?
You still need to monitor the tasks you have delegated andto continue the development of your staff to help themexercise their authority well.
8/6/2019 France Delegation
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/france-delegation 10/42
�There are managerial functions which you should never delegate -these are the personal/personnel ones which are often the most obviousadditions to your responsibilities as you assume a managerial role.Specifically, they include: motivation, training, team-building,organization, praising, reprimanding, performance reviews, promotion.
�As a manager, you have a responsibility to represent and to develop theeffectiveness of your group within the company; these are tasks you canexpand to fill your available time - delegation is a mechanism for creatingthat opportunity.

Global Retailing
Retailers are improving their image by assuming greater social responsibility.
In doing so, they¶re meeting the needs of society as a whole,rather than just focusing on maximizing profits. They providetheir facilities for art exhibits, forums and communityactivities.
Executives lead fund-raising drives that benefit thecommunity, underwrite programs, sponsor events, andmentor students.
Being a business owner provides opportunities for you to be
involved in issues that matter to you and your customers.

Benefits of Retailing
Every retailer and supplier wants to find the perfectinvestment opportunity.
While each company will define this differently,according to its strategic aims and existing
portfolio, Premier International believes that thereare a series of criteria that all investors are likely toconsider favorable when assessing the potential of new or existing markets.
8/6/2019 France Delegation
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/france-delegation 32/42
These includes:
High political and economic stability
Good quality infrastructure
Low level of retailer competition
Size of the food retail market and food retail spend per capita
The potential for future growth in both foods
8/6/2019 France Delegation
http://slidepdf.com/reader/full/france-delegation 33/42
While many markets display a large number of these criteria,none have them all and Premier¶s International believe there
is no such thing as µthe perfect market opportunity¶.
For example:
The United States benefits from a high level of political
and economic stability, a good quality infrastructure and aconsiderable food retail market. However, it is a highlycompetitive market and while it is likely to be attractive tosome investors, it would require a large-scale investment or acquisition for a retailer to enter the market.
