And we're only four months into 2007.
How does a business steer
an ethical course when expanding overseas? It's a question raised here by WP Carey professor Marianne Jennings.She points to some of the warning signs, like fear and silence, pressure to maintain numbers, weak boards and a culture of conflict. The only way around the problem, she says, is to set very clear policies. Companies must also realize that when they enter a new country, their reputation starts at zero.
But what are the specific steps? I examine that issue when I discuss ways of avoiding integrity land mines.
