Week 5 BA 405 Multinational Management

Teamwork

Teams and teamwork are impacted by the growth of a company to international stature.

· Select a foreign company that has come to the US (not the other way around), describe how employees communicate between subsidiaries, and how do they handle the time differences?

· How are meetings conducted? How much travel is involved for team members?

· If you were a leader in this foreign company, how would you persuade American workers to participate? Would you have trouble evaluating their performance?

 

Create an audio or video recording that is 3-5 minutes in length explaining your thoughts on this topic.

In the video or audio recording, be sure to identify yourself

Also provide an outline of your recording complete with 3-4 references. One reference must be from the text and you may not use Wikipedia or a dictionary web site.

To record audio here are three suggestions:

1. Use a voice recorder app on your smartphone and transfer file to your computer

2. Install free, open source application Audacity for PC or Mac ( link here )

3. Use the internal microphone of your laptop and Sound Recorder tool found in the Accessories menu of most versions of Windows
