You have had 8 years to take your U.S.-based company global and make the company successful on a global level. You have had to examine metrics, measurements, strategies, forecasts, research and development, marketing, production, and finances each year and make decisions for the next year based on this information and overall success/failure from the previous year.

For this assignment, provide an analysis of the overall company performance from year 1 to year 8. Be sure to include the following in your comprehensive report:

-Summarize how the company has grown, expanded, and changed over the 8 years. Indicate if and how you are leaving the company in better financial shape in year 8 than it was in year 1.

-Determine how the overall strategy of the company evolved over 8 years in terms of research and development, marketing, operations, finance, and globalization.

-If you had the opportunity to go back 8 years and make different decisions regarding the direction and strategies for the company, what would you have done differently and why? What worked well in terms of your decisions over the 8 years and what did not work well?

-Explain your biggest successes and biggest failures in terms of running this business for 8 years. Determine the most important lesson learned throughout the 8 years in terms of global business strategy.
