****THE CLASSMATE DISCUSSION RESPONSE TO THE DISCUSSION QUESTIONS:
Hello Professor and Class,
Discuss the major factors associated with appraisal of expatriate managerial performance.
There are major factors to consider with the appraisal of expatriate managerial performance. According to research from the International Journal of management reviews, expatriate manager continues to be a viable means of exercising control over foreign operations. (Harevy, 2009). These managers directly have an impact on their organizational performance and are one of the key leaders in the organization to understand the significance of international business. Factors to consider consist of client relationships, operations, productivity, personal resources, human resources, and training. All these major factors derive from the manager of performance of the organization in a foreign perspective.
Why is it important to include hard, soft and contextual goals when assessing managerial performance?
It’s important to include hard, soft and contextual goals when assessing manager performance. This is due to the fact that major performance for expatriate managers requires a perspective that consists of all of these major factors. Our goals are considered quantifiable and based on production metrics. Soft goals are based on culture and teamwork. Contextual goals consist of the international managerial performance that the management operates under.
What evidence is there to show that corporate codes of conduct are effective?
Corporate codes of conduct are a practical corporate social responsibility that are used to govern employee behavior and to establish a socially acceptable and responsible organizational culture. According to research from the journal of business ethics, the effectiveness of these codes have been discussed widely interested in numerous reports that directly compare companies without these codes of conduct. (Erwin, 2011). Companies that maintain high quality codes of conduct we’re represented with much more corporate social responsibility in the ranking systems among corporate citizenship, ethical behavior, sustainability, and public perception.
