The Final exam put you in a “real” situation where you have to leverage all the pieces you have learned (we have covered) in the course to arrive at a recommendation.
- Select a company of your choice for this assignment (Ideally in the industry you are in, so this is relevant to you). The company is considering taking over a small firm that currently employs 300 people along a One Belt One Road (OBOR) country (select a country of your choice)… (why? to produce for the parent co.? or to help parent co. access a new market? or… )
- Come up with a score card that can assist you in assessing the initiative, i.e. create the attributes/dimensions for assessment.
- How would you rate the company in the country with the scorecard you developed? i.e., give it a score (your score should be supported by evidence, e.g., India has an economic growth score of 4 out of 5, why… what evidence do you have supporting a 4
- Prepare a presentation (section by section, with graphs) to be delivered to the Board of Directors that shows your analysis, with supporting evidence (graphs and numbers), and your recommendation.
Dimensions you may want to consider for your score card (just to help you kick off)… may include:
• external factors that affect your decision, (hint: these are the people you will have to deal with at the country/macro-level, e.g., PEST)
• internal factors that you may face that affect your decision, (hint: your competitive position in the market, the ability to work with people you will have to deal with at the company/micro-level, e.g., culture)
