Global Staffing

 Due Sunday at 3pm

 

Every company finds it challenging to recruit and select top executives for an international location. The nationals of the host country will be aware of the local laws and customs and may accept a lower wage as well, but may not be familiar with the company’s culture and policies. The company’s employees, on the other hand, will know about the company’s business, culture, and policies, but might not be familiar with the culture and customs of the foreign country.

Your MNC is expanding its operations to South America (Brazil, Argentina, Chile, or Columbia). The subsidiary in South America will be manufacturing automobile parts. As a human resource executive, you have to decide how you will staff this new location for top- and middle-level management, and other employees.

Using  online library resources, and the Internet, respond to the following:

• Which model will be most appropriate for staffing each group: ethnocentric model, polycentric model, or global model? Explain your reasoning for each case.

Write a two-to-three-page paper in Word format. Utilize at least three scholarly sources in your research. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

 

• Which model will be most appropriate for staffing each group: ethnocentric model, polycentric model, or global model? Explain your reasoning for each case.

Please prepare a few PowerPoint slides outlining the answer to the week 4 assignment. I would like each of you to create a model/organizational rendering showing your organization.  This can be in the form of an organizational chart. You might want to review actual automotive companies as a reference.
