Describe the current global strategy and provide evidence about how the firm’s resources and competencies support the pressures
oksian1 [2.3K]

Describe the current global strategy and provide evidence about how the firm’s resources and competencies support the pressures regarding costs and local responsiveness. Describe entry modes they have usually used, and whether the modes are appropriate for the given strategy is described below

Explanation:

Global Strategy’ is a shortened term that covers three areas: global, multinational and international strategies. Essentially, these three areas refer to those strategies designed to enable an organisation to achieve its objective of international expansion.

In developing ‘global strategy’, it is useful to distinguish between three forms of international expansion that arise from a company’s resources, capabilities and current international position.

Implications of the three definitions within global strategy:

International strategy: the organisation’s objectives relate primarily to the home market.

Multinational strategy: the organisation is involved in a number of markets beyond its home country. But it needs distinctive strategies for each of these markets because customer demand and, perhaps competition, are different in each country. Importantly, competitive advantage is determined separately for each country.

Global strategy: the organisation treats the world as largely one market and one source of supply with little local variation. Importantly, competitive advantage is developed largely on a global basis.
