The workforce management is far more complicated in companies with operations in multiple countries than their domestic counterparts. There are political, economic, social-cultural, technological, and legal issues that add substantial challenges to this naturally complicated task. Leadership styles and management practices vary from country to country, creating difficulties for people in units located in different countries to achieve corporate goals.
