India is a nation that is on the move towards becoming one of the leaders in the global economy. While the country still has a long way to go, it is making significant strides towards competition with nations such as the United States and England. Indian leaders have been moving towards "a five-point agenda that includes improving the investment climate; developing a comprehensive WTO strategy; reforming agriculture, food processing, and small-scale industry; eliminating red tape; and instituting better corporate governance" (Cateora & Graham p. 56, 2007). These steps are geared to begin India's transformation from a third world nation into a global economic leader. The current marketing environment in India is in transition, with both similarities and differences in comparison to the marketing environment in the US.

To realise the potential of India, MNCs need to show a strong and visible commitment to the country, empower local management and invest in local talent, while delivering the customization that Indian customers require (Choudhary et al 2012). “…The future of many multinationals depends on their ability to succeed in India” (Choudhary et al 2012.

I selected an international business article from The Wall Street Journal titled “McDonald’s, Pizza Hut Cook Up New Plans for India” for my article summary assignment. This article is relevant to our course because it covers American fast food companies expanding in India. In order to be successful in foreign markets, it requires adjusting to the foreign country’s culture and customs in order to be successful in a global market. It also requires innovation and adaption to serve the local people in foreign countries, and they need strategies and a vision to address current trends and local competition.
Performance management is a process that guarantees an organisation and all of its available resources are working collectively and effectively towards achieving the organisation’s mission or goal. Performance management affords an understanding of what drives an individuals, and even organisations, performance at all levels. An understanding of performance management allows for the identification and minimisation of unproductive areas of an organisation, as well as an ability to predict future performance. It is a powerful tool that can be used by managers at all levels of an organisation to help improve a company’s productivity.
Business ethics and social responsibility are two concepts many individuals believe go along together for corporations in the business environment. Business ethics are the moral values a company uses to ensure all employees action in a standard manner when completing business functions. Social responsibility is typically a conceptual theory that governments and the general public hold, believing that businesses should not conduct themselves in a manner counter to cultural or societal norms. The connubial of these concepts happens when companies introduce a written code of ethics to demonstrate that the company only acts in its greatest interest so long as it does not damage the company’s social responsibility.
Strategic management has shown to enhance the company’s profits and market shares. Companies need to utilize strategic management in order to improve that their performance and organizations are set. Some of the benefits of strategic management are it brings new opportunities and development, the manager is more involved in their job role, the quality of the company is enhanced, implementing models that will bring the company growth and profits, it helps the manager to be organized in order for them to be successful, it brings certainty to the company, and provides management with a guide to what the company is needing to accomplish with their goals for the future. According to Nmadu (2007) he stated “strategic management has become more important to managers in recent years and defining the mission of their organization in specific terms have made it easier for managers to give their organization a sense of purpose” (Dauda, Akingbade, and Akinlabi, 2010, p.100). Strategic management can also have its disadvantages. A few disadvantages are time and effort that is put into the company, and discussing what is important for the company’s long-term goals. Another disadvantage is managers stay on the planning stage but forget to implement and take control of the plan. If strategic management is not enforced than this can cause effects on the companies market shares, and profitability. Enforcing a strategic plan will play a major role in the companies
Over the past hundred years management has continuously been evolving. There have been a wide range of approaches in how to deal with management or better yet how to improve management functions in our ever changing environment. From as early as 1100 B.C managers have been struggling with the same issues and problems that manager’s face today. Modern managers use many of the practices, principles, and techniques developed from earlier concepts and experiences.
Public Administration and business administration can be described as being two different faces of the same discipline. There are several areas where a comparison between the two can be made, the most apparent being efficiency. Attention to profit and the bottom line is more the area of business administration, the less human focused of the two. Business administration is more dependent on other corporations and uses other companies to help deliver its product. Public Administration, on the other hand, is somewhat harder to define, it is interdependent and is motivated by the common good rather than by profit.
