There are various obstacles come across if you are taking a company globally. As my other classmates discussed in above posts, I would like to add some points.
1.Be aware of national and religious holidays- holidays might affect a team members. As a project manager you should know which holidays are particularly important to team members.
2.Be savvy about the culture differences among team members- if someone in other country speaks flawless American English, don’t assume that there cultural values are the same as yours.
3.Don’t generalize, or make assumptions- be inclusive and seek advice from a friend who’s familiar with local customs when culture specific issues emerge.
