2. Purpose of Case Study :
The purpose of case study id to target undergraduate audience.
This case study is based on fictional UK’s hotel industry.
Study cases are represented in such a way that you can apply
them in practical life also.
By reading this you can transfer your domestic experience into
international experience.

3. Background Information on the
Organization
● Brunt Hotels, PLC, owns more than 60 hotels throughout the United Kingdom.
● They decided that half of the new hotels in France would be rebranded as Brunt
Hotels Group.
● They follow strategic objectives to grow the organization slowly and on budget.
● Brunt’s hotels are functional, clean, professional and reasonably priced.
● These Hotels are situated at special and tourist places.
● They send their experience manger to France to manage new Hotels.
● If they become successful in overseas contries than their target is to built new
hotels across the Europe.
● Their plan is to own almost 150 Hotels in every five years.

4. Case Study – Part One
●In first case study, we read about an organization
which open new hotels in UK and built them slowly
and properly with the help of their trained managers
and workers. But now the problem is that organization
wants to target France to built Hotels their. They
advised their independent management consultants
that how they can proceed outside the UK.

5. Problems :
There are many problems will be faced by the
organization in building hotels outside the UK. The
problems are following.
●None of their existing managers speak French fluently.
●They expect to recruit a large number of staff for the
new French hotels, because more than 70 percent of the
employees from the acquired organization left.

6. Assumptions :
●Organization must need some experience people who knows about
the tradition and culture of France.
●Organization need at least one or two persons who know English and
French both it will help them to communicate properly.
●Organization must choose a tourists places or a main market to target
big number of customers.
●Their employees and managers must learn France’s people
communication and greeting system.

7. Activity A:
To built hotels in France, organization must hire some employees of France
nationality and they can also send some of their experience managers.
Priorities :
● Create a training program for their employees and managers to train them
and teach them French language and also their greeting systems.
● Also we need to hire some employees who know French language and
this is our important priority.
● Create a cross culture program for French and English employees.
● Make a plan that how to built almost 300 hotels in next 10 years with
remaining 30% employees.
● Also study the success of different famous Hotels of France. It will help
them a lot for proceed.

8. Activity B:
I choose Group 3 because this combination is best for the
organization here are the reason.
Reason :
● I think combination of PCNs and HCNs is the best option because
it will help the organization to work with experience and it will
benefit to communicate with France’s people easily.
Advantages :
● It will help the hotels to grow properly.
● It will help both the customers and employees to communicate
easily. HCNs helps the organization to well fully know about the
tradition and culture of the France.

9. Summary of case study - One:
The summary of the case is that the company
become successful in UK and now their target is to
expand their business outside the UK. But they
never opened a Hotel outside the UK. So, their first
target is France, they wanted to built Hotels in
France and their target is to built 150 hotels in next 5
years and almost 300 in next 10 years.

10. Case Study – Part Two
●According to case study two Brunt management
decided to hire PCNs because it will be their first
venture outside the UK. They think that it will be
beneficial for their organization and through this they
can incorporate the organization values. They think
that once the organization will running properly,
HCNs could be hired.

11. Problems :
Because they wanted to hire PCNs instead of HCNs, a lot of problems
will come, which are followings.
●Employees did not know French, it will be a strong challenge for
them to learn French.
●Employees and management did not know about the tradition and
culture of France.
●They do not know the market values of France as they know about
UK.
●Their will be a lot of problems come in advertising because they do
not knoe about the famous places.

12. Assumptions :
●If organization wants to hire PCNs, then their will be a strong reason
behind it because their od employees have experience and they are
well trained.
●PCNs old employees and managers can guide their new employees
easily.
●I think they will hire at least one guider who know French and
English both, who guide the old and new PCNs in aspect of tradition
and culture of France.

13. HR HIRING :
HR Requirement :
• Provide excellent levels of customer service to all
guests.
• Provide a clean and comfortable environment for
guests and staff.
• Recruit and retain excellent staff.
• Support and develop staff so they can reach their
full potential.
• Continuously strive to improve all aspects of the
business.
• Ensure that all hotel buildings, fixtures and
fittings are well-maintained in a proactive manner.

14. Activity C:
Dear managers,
I hope you are well. The purpose of this mail is to inform that
HR resources vacancies in are requirement. We are looking for the oversea HR
recruiter who is skillful in doing business in France. The candidate should able
to manage a business, including job designing, requirement, management
shills and also have some experience.

15. Summary of case study – Part Two:
Burnt hotel decide to expand their business in
France with hiring PCNs employees. They know
that their old PCNs employees and managers are
experience, so this is a strong decision for them.
They believe that when their organization will
struggle hard then they also hire some HCNs.

16. Case Study – Part Three :
The management liked your requirement advertisement,
but realize that they did not consider the salary for the new
positions. As they never hired a manager outside the UK.
They do not know how to start determining the
compensation. The directors want experts managers
because they expect their overseas business to expand in
the future. They also want their old existing employee to
work abroad for them.

17. Problems :
●There is a lot of time needed to hire a well professional and
honest manager from oversea countries .
●A main problem is there is how to manage the salary of the
France and existing UK managers.
●A big problem is believe that how Brunt Organization believe
that the oversea manager is helpful for them. Questions arises, is
he honest? Is he professional in this field?
●As organization never worked before outside the UK. They do
not know about how much salary will be demand by the France
manager.

18. Assumptions :
●Oversea manger may be helpful for the organization as they well
know about their culture and traditions.
●Oversea manager may be want low or high salary according to his
experience.
●May be it will be harmful for the communication between managers
and employees by hiring a new oversea manager.
●It will must be observed that according to survey the average salary
of the manager is about 60,000 euros.

19. Activity D:
In HR compensate design plan we
can offered our managers a yearly to
one country every year, medical
allowance of 40%, travelling
allowance of 20%, As you hit the ten
years mark, the salary increases by
21% and an additional 14% for those
who have crossed the 15 years
mark.
Annual Salary Increase = Increase Rate x 12 ÷
Increase Frequency

20. Summary of case study - Three
In this case study the main target is salary. Because
the organization did not consider any salary for the
new hire managers and employees. So in this case
study the organization tell about the existing manager
salary. They arranged a survey in France and the
survey reveals that almost 60,000 Euros with no
opportunity to earn bonus is the average salary of the
France manager.

21. Case study – Part Four :
In this case study the organization wants to hire some new
candidates and they want them to write an email to them to the
CEO, in which they write about them and also write a reason that
why they are beneficial for the organization and they also want to
hire 30 managers to apply for the new position and almost 10
managers will be selected. So for the selection of the new mangers
they want to choose a right decision plan in which they select new
candidates on merit. They also know that their senior managers well
fully know about their juniors employees. They just want justice in
selecting new employees because they do not want to de motivate
any of their existing employee.

22. Problems :
●They just want to hire 10 candidates, but there are
30 candidates who wants to apply for new
position.
●For the fair selection, they want to hire
candidates on merit.
●The management know that the job application or
email is not enough for the hiring of new position.

23. Assumptions :
●The management want to apply a justice rule for the selection
of all the candidates.
●The management do not want to de motivate any of their
applier's candidates.
●It will be tough for the organization to select candidates on
merit.
●They observed that job application is not enough to select
right candidate, because we cannot judge some ability by just
an application.

24. Activity E : part A : The selection process
The selection process for the candidates, the candidates must follow this schedule.
Performance appraisal sample :
Employee name : Department Name :
Job Title : Immediate supervisor :
Date of Review : Skills :
Experience :
If the candidate does not follow the instructions he will be able to apply for job.

25. Activity E : part B
We can select the right employees by judging them in interview
such as by judging their qualities ( speaking skills, management
skills, experience).

26. Summary of the Case Study Four :
The organization wants to hire 30 managers to apply for the
new position and almost 10 managers will be selected. So for
the selection of the new mangers they want to choose a right
decision plan in which they select new candidates on merit.
They also know that their senior managers well fully know
about their juniors employees. They just want justice in
selecting new employees because they do not want to de
motivate any of their existing employee. The management team
advises you that they do not want to take into account the
marital or family situation of the expatriate candidate.

27. Case Study – Part Five :
Management decided to select just 10 candidates from 30
candidates but they finalize their management staff of six
members only. They think that the six member staff have much
ability to open hotels in France. They sure that this six
management staff have much confident to open new hotels.
After selecting candidates they just want to check the
performance and skills of the selected candidates and they
want to arrange training programs for them. But they never
work abroad, so the organization wants to know that how we
will analyze their performance. They are not sure that what
should be included in the training sessions. The only
mandatory think is that the managers must have basic
knowledge of the French language.

28. Problems :
●Organization first face a problem of take of 10
managers from 6 managers.
●To learn French language for the managers is
another biggest task for the managers.
●A highly budget is required for both training of
the managers.

29. Assumptions :
●The selected candidates did not visited the France before, so
there are many problems occur while communicating with
people.
●The management arrange a training program for the managers
which main task is to give basic knowledge of the French to their
managers.
●The manager select six candidates because they know that they
have experience and have musch skills to open new hotels in
France.

30. Activity F :
Group 1 will design the training programs
for Managers A and B.
We should train our manager before departure and after
departure, they will train them mentally and arrange a tour for
their relaxation, because they leave their family behind, so this
tour will help them for relaxation. They will also arrange an
internet and physical survey to judge the working of France’s
Hotels. Then they will train them according to the survey.

31. Activity F :
Group 2 will design the training programs
for Managers C and D.
The group two wants to arrange a motivational and
training camp in the France for the training of the
employees. In this training session they judge their
employees according to the training camp. Through this
they will design.

32. Activity F :
Group 3 will design the training programs
for Managers E and F.
The third group arrange a practical test for the training of
the employees and they arrange some special managers
from the famous France hotels and under this experience
managers, the employee will understand how to open new
hotels in France.

33. Summary of the Case - Five
The management think that the six member staff have much
ability to open hotels in France. They sure that this six
management staff have much confident to open new hotels. After
selecting candidates they just want to check the performance and
skills of the selected candidates and they want to arrange training
programs for them. But they never work abroad, so the
organization wants to know that how we will analyze their
performance. They are not sure that what should be included in
the training sessions. The only mandatory think is that the
managers must have basic knowledge of the French language.

34. Case Study – Part Six
The management team decides to select only one
proposed training program from the given three. They
know that it will be useful for the new expatriates. They
want to provide external support to their managers. And
they provide them a lot of benefits through this they can
support their family easily. They can also live in France
easily due to many facilities provided by the organization.
But they do not have comprehensive overview. That this
will help their candidates or not.

35. Problems :
● Managers have some strong focus on their family who
are living their live in UK, so they do not easily focus
on the work.
● It will demand a very high budget to give facilities to
their candidates.
● It will not be easy to manage a staff of UK in France.

36. Assumptions :
●It will cost a lot because manage a staff from UK is
much difficult in France.
●The organization decided to support their managers
personally and professionally so it will be easy for
them to work for their organization. And it will be
beneficial for the organization because more the
workers will work then more the organization will
success.

37. Activity G :
Services for expatriates
● FIDI France members are able to assist and provide services for
expatriates upon their arrival to the foreign country. For example,
assistance is provided for managing expenses, rental contract, furniture
hire, cultural assistance for spouses or even provide cleaning services and
home help for individuals during their work assignment.
● An international move completed with associated storage and relocation
services make up an adapted solution in face of the radical cultural
changes generated by expatriation.
● When you put your trust in a FIDI France member, you have a unique
and permanent contact person who can help you settle into your new life
abroad with success, so that your experience can be the most enriching
and memorable one in your professional and personal life.

38. Summary of the Case Study – Six
The management team decides to select only one proposed
training program from the given three. They know that it will
be useful for the new expatriates. They want to provide
external support to their managers. And they provide them a
lot of benefits through this they can support their family
easily. They can also live in France easily due to many
facilities provided by the organization. But they do not have
comprehensive overview. That this will help their candidates
or not.
