Section One: Drivers for Global Entry Country Selection The country I have selected for the final project is, China. Purpose of Global Expansion Multiple key benefits come from international business expansion; foreign investment opportunity exposure, access to greater talent, ability to provide help to more people, an improvement in reputation, allowing room for growth and diversity. What are the 7 Benefits of Going Global explains, “… globalization can bring your organization many benefits including a wider base of customers” (2022, March 22). Although the organization is not losing money, a wider base of customers will possibly lead to an increase of sales in both the domestic and international market. Business Impacts of Global Business Global expansion of a domestic organization can impact a business in a positive and negative way. There are many factors that need to be taken into consideration before doing so. Needs of customers must be evaluated, culture differences, the economic condition of the market, as well as competition, and pricing. As stated in Differences in Strategic Planning for Domestic… “ …strategies must consider the organization structure between the two countries and the ethnic makeup” (Ingram, 2016). With this situation the company needs to figure out another marketing strategy to fit the necessities of China and plan to reevaluate strategic planning for the market in which it is expanding to. Societal Impacts of Global Business Globalization within organizations has had a huge impact on society. Cultural diversity has increased now that individuals from across the world have been brought to work in one workplace. There is now an increased understanding of different cultural and tolerances. Transportation has also been impacted by organizational globalization. Individuals are now able to travel more efficiently to other countries and regions around the world. With more efficient travel, there has been an increase in jobs. Stated in Effects of Globalization on the Environment, “ Efficient transportation systems ensures accessibility to education and healthcare services” (Stobierski, 2021). There are also negative impacts of globalization
like the difference in income between two people with the same qualifications but different ethnic groups. Unfortunately, “…this can lead to an increase of societal violence” (Stobierski, 2021). Cultural Considerations for Global Business The importance of researching the culture of a potential global market before market entry, is to understand the cultural differences between the two markets. Stated in 8 Reasons why Companies need to Research… “It requires more investment and regardless of challenges involved, international market research is unavoidable” (Shaw, 2022). Reviewing the laws and regulations and see what is different, as well as mitigating potential risk can be beneficial to a company to avoid any unnecessary conflict or decrease in sales.
