B7840 Strategy Formulation, Implementation, and Evaluation Week 3

        
Assignment 1: —International Workforce and Its Impact on Strategy Formulation
The workforce management is far more complicated in companies with  operations in multiple countries than their domestic counterparts. There  are political, economic, social-cultural, technological, and legal  issues that add substantial challenges to this naturally complicated  task. Leadership styles and management practices vary from country to  country, creating difficulties for people in units located in different  countries to achieve corporate goals.
Using the University online library resources, locate a  minimum of four different scholarly sources on leading international  employees, international workforce development and labor law. Based on  what you learned from them, discuss the following points related to  these topics:

The recruitment and selection issues being faced by companies that have a presence in different cultures and countries
The importance of labor-management relations, and how they differ around the world
The importance of training and development programs, especially cultural training, when leading an international workforce
The impact of the above discussed issues on a successful strategy formulation

Write your initial response in 300–500 words. Your response should be  thorough and address all components of the discussion question in  detail, include citations of all sources, where needed, according to the  APA Style, and demonstrate accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation
