A company has three main options to manage its international activities: 1. Export Department - Consists of a sales manager and assistants, but is not adequate for joint ventures or direct investment. 2. International Division - Can have different operational groups organized by country, region, products, or subsidiaries. Subsidiary presidents report to the division president. 3. Global Organization - Top management and staff plan worldwide facilities, policies, finances, and logistics. Global units report directly to the CEO, not an international division head. The best approach balances global integration with local responsiveness.
