URGENT! LAST MINUTE SUBMISSION : INTERNATIONAL MANAGEMENT TOPIC QUESTIONS

URGENT: Have no time to complete this assessment because of work, need help!

Simply answer all three questions in each topics (4 topics)

Topic 5: Cross-cultural Negotiation and decision making 

Question 2: What are some of the differences in risk tolerance around the world? What is the role of risk propensity in the decision-making process?

Question 3: Describe what you would expect in negotiations with Germans and how you would handle that situation.

Topic 6: Formulating Strategy

Question 1: Discuss the merits of the following entry strategies – exporting, turnkey projects and wholly-owned subsidiaries.

Question 2: What opportunities and threats will likely emerge when a firm decides to move from purely domestic operations to global operations?

Question 3: As the Korean population is increasingly able to afford high priced items like cars, this market represents a desirable growth opportunity for Japanese, German, and American car makers. However, the Korean automobile market is dominated by Korean car manufacturers (Hyundai, :, and Daewoo). Oftentimes, such domination by a domestic manufacturer is blamed on trade barriers, but Korea’s tariffs are among the lowest in the world. Why then do most Koreans drive Korean-made cars? What entry strategy would be most appropriate for accessing this culturally-closed market?

Topic 7: Global Alliances

Question 1: Why are there an increasing number of mergers with companies in different industries? Give some examples.

Question 2: What are the common sources of incompatibility in cross-border alliances? What can be done in order to minimize them?

Question 3: How might the variable of national culture affect strategic implementation? Use the Mittal Steel example to highlight some of these factors.

Topic 8: Global Structures

Question 1: Explain the need for an MNC to “be global and act local.” How can a firm design its organization to enable this?

Question 2 : As an international manager, what would make you suggest restructuring of your firm? What other means of direct and indirect monitoring systems could you suggest?

Question 3 :What is a transnational organization? Because many large MNCs are moving toward this format, it is likely that you could at some point be working within this structure—how do you feel about that?
