Abstract

Multinational companies share in common with their single-nation counterparts many internal organisational issues, problems and challenges, such as coordination, integration, differentiation and control, but they face these in their most intense and complex forms. The sheer size and diversity of location, products and services offered and needed, operational technology, clients, suppliers, customers, legal and other institutional contacts and trade partners, bring with them their own imperatives. These in turn cause conflicts, frictions, tensions and frustrations in their own right in addition to those which might have their roots in the national culture of the parent company and its foreign subsidiaries.
