Case study E

1. Managing Volatility in Markets and Economic Interdependence

The global economy is intertwined, and financial crises in one region can have an immediate impact on
companies worldwide. The 2007–09 financial crisis revealed how risky financial actions in America have
long-term consequences. Managers must develop strategies for minimizing risk, such as diversifying
economies, securing financing, and maintaining high liquidity in times of economies' downturns.

2. Adapting to Changing Consumer Trends and Global Demand

Consumer preferences become homogenized with globalization. Business organizations must tailor
offerings and service in relation to international tastes but in a form that keeps them locally relevant.
McDonald’s, for example, varies its menu in relation to country-specific cultural requirements. Managers
must make investments in product customization and market analysis in an attempt to maintain
competitiveness in geographically scattered markets.

3. Managing Trade Policies and Global Value Chains

With increased international trade, companies depend on global supply chains, and these can be
disrupted through political upheavals, economic downturns, and tariffs. Managers must implement
flexible supply chain strategies, such as multi-supplier sources, in-country production, and geo-political
risk tracking in an attempt to preserve operational agility.

4. Addressing Income Inequality and Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR)

The disparity in incomes between nations has an impact on consumption globally. Wealthy nations drive
global production, and poor countries contribute raw materials and labour. Cost effectiveness and ethical
behavior have then to be balanced in terms of equitable pay, ethical procurement, and investing in
developing economies for a positive contribution to a company's reputation and long-term growth.

5. Leveraging technological breakthroughs for competitive advantage

Technological advancements in communications and transportation have eased worldwide business


operations. Managers must regularly implement new technology, including electronic payment
platforms, AI-powered analysis, and automation, in an effort to enhance efficiency, save costs, and widen
market access.
