GOING GLOBAL
Excerpt From a Great Mind“Contrary to popular wisdom, companies from the fringes of the world economy can become global players. What they need is organizational confidence, a clear strategy, a passion for learning, and the leadership to bring these factors together”
FROM THE AUTOBIOGRAPHY OF NELSON MANDELA, FORMER SOUTH AFRICAN PRESIDENT
Nelson Mandela recalls his dismay when he boarded an airplane and found that the pilot was African. With shock, he realized his reaction was exactly what he had been fighting against all his life. Mandela was discussing social and cultural issues, but the same involuntary reactions surface in commerce.

GOING GLOBAL
I. Globalization – An Overview• Economic Process
– Government Role : Reduction of the role of governments in regulating trade and production and in providing services
– The Market : Efficient and effective determinant of what should be produced and what would be consumed
– Competition : Leads to rational production as countries produce goods and provide services that they can do competitively and simply import that which they cannot; producing growth that will benefit the society as a whole

GOING GLOBAL
I. Globalization – An Overview• Impact on Government Policies
– Liberalization : The reduction and eventual removal of barriers to the flow of goods, services and capital from one country to another (e.g. tariffs or taxes on imported agricultural products such as beef, rice or corn)
– Privatization : Total or partial sale of government-owned or controlled corporations or institutions to the private sector (e.g. managed water and electric companies sold to private businesses)
– Deregulation : The removal of government intervention in setting or regulating the prices of goods and services regardless of whether this benefits the consumers or not (e.g. deregulation of the oil industry)

I. Globalization – An Overview• Going Global? May Be… May Be Not …
– Global Sourcing : Makes our firm a global organization. We use these business units to meet low cost resource needs.
– Following the Customer : Our customer operates in different countries and we support them globally, thus we are global.
– Corporate Pride : You better understand, we are a multi-billion dollar firm and we are a global firm. We have been working globally because of our business connections all over the world. It’s not a concern if our firm is global or not.
– Local Success : Because we are successful locally there is no need to go Global. Going global is an easy task. we will do it only and when it is absolutely necessary.

GOING GLOBAL
• Going Global? May Be… May Be Not (contd.)
– International Presence : We think we understand the business culture in the countries that we are currently expanding and we know exactly how to get them buy our service/product offerings.
– International Connections : We have family and friends in Australia, Brazil, China and India, so my firm can go global at any time.
– Pride and Ignorance : I’m the CEO of my US firm and I’m from India. I understand the US culture and have the funds. Let’s just go global - what is the big deal?
– Feeling Small : My firm is too small and as the CEO, I do not think we can ever go global!! why do you think every small firms like mine should think global?

II. Woes & Wows – An AnalysisSAMSUNG (Korean Electronics Manufacturer)
About 10 years ago:• Made quality products that matched Sony, Hitachi etc.• Products greatly accepted in home country, Korea• Faced competitive situation with going global• CEO and management personnel traveled to the US• Identified Samsung perception being “bargain junk”• CEO realized the need for a “changed” perception• A global strategy was put in place and implemented
Outcome Analysis (Observations):
• Samsung is a world renowned global firm
• Samsung is a brand name
• Samsung products do not collect dust in retail stores (anymore)

II. Woes and Wows – An AnalysisArvind Mills (Indian Garment Manufacturer)
About 10 years ago:• Perceived as a symbol of quality at home (still does)• Initial strategy worked great as a “quality” garment firm at home• Major denim supplier to 1990’s apparel firms in the US• Expanded rapidly providing quality products to global firms• Global competition increased dramatically• U.S jeans market continually started to sink
Outcome Analysis (Observations):
• Lack of adequate R&D, marketing and distribution
• Paralysis of management “will” (vision as 2nd class citizens?)
• Arvind mills remains as a firm focused more on local markets
• The global perception remains as “just another” garment company

II. Woes and Wows – An AnalysisRanbaxy (Indian Pharmaceutical Firm)• In 1975, started its export business• Decided to go global as a bulk pharmaceutical provider• Gross margins increased 5% to 10%• Export business caused international sales and distribution costs• Did not justify business sense except from the pride of going global• In 1993, the CEO challenged the firm to be a research-based firm• Ranbaxy created a pocket of excellence in India and also abroad• A shift in management mind-set was established• Established close to 50% of its revenues from global markets• Implemented operational strategies from global learning
Outcome Analysis (Observations):
• A straight forward strategy
• Higher margin initiatives by selling branded generics
• Knowledge and capability that helped penetrating the US market
• Focus on R&D than manufacturing/promoting drugs

GOING GLOBAL
II. Woes and Wows - An AnalysisJollibee
• Philippines-based, fast-food chain• Used the entry of fast-food giant, McDonald’s, as training ground• Viewed operating systems at McDonald’s and used this knowledge
to expand number of stores• Did not just copy McDonald’s management style, but also looked at
ways to innovate• Looked for gaps in McDonald’s business model• Made a combination of efficient stores with consumer sensitive
menus (Asian fast food)• Gained customer loyalty from existing customers and new
customers through expansion• Shows how a late entrant into a market can adapt to the business
models of its competitors

GOING GLOBAL
II. Woes and Wows - An AnalysisBRL Hardy
• Australian wine company• Sold bulk wine directly for private labels• Fragmented producers, which kept them from building brand strength
and utilizing distribution capability• Millar, managing director for BRL Hardy, stopped selling wine from one
country or region• Instead of just Australia, sourced from France, Italy, and other countries• Offset vintage uncertainties, currency risks of sourcing from single
country, and gained clout with retailers, due to strongly built brand identity
• Same as Jollibee: though a late entrant, they were able to innovate and create a strong enough brand presence to take over the European market

Question: What is the truest definition of “Globalization”?
ANSWER: An English princess with an Egyptian boyfriend crashes in a French tunnel, driving a German car with a Dutch engine, driven by a Belgian who was drunk on Scottish whiskey, followed closely by Italian Paparazzi, on Japanese motorcycles, treated by an American doctor, using Brazilian medicines!
Answer: Princess Diana’s Death
Question: How Come?
And this is sent to you by a Canadian author, using Bill Gates' technology and you 're probably reading this on one of the IBM clones that use Taiwanese-made chips, and Korean-made monitors, assembled by Bangladeshi workers in a Singapore plant, transported by lorries driven by Indians, hijacked by Indonesians, unloaded by Sicilian longshoremen and finally sold to you.
That, my friend, is Globalization!
