Moving Headquarters Overseas

A major MNE has incredible knowledge resources but they are often underutilized. The reason: often the knowledge that is needed within one part of the organization exists within that organization but normally there is no system by which those who need info can identify and obtain that info from those who have it.

Write a paper on moving a corporate headquarters overseas.

Address the following in your paper:

• What are the drawbacks and benefits associated with moving a business unit and corporate HQ to another country?

• If you were a CEO or a business unit head, under what conditions would you consider moving HQ?

• If you were a government official in the MNE's home country, what can you do to discourage such moves of multinational HQ out of the country?

• Write between 750 - 1250 words (approximately 3 - 5 pages) using Microsoft Word in APA style, see example below.
• Use font size 12 and 1" margins.
• Include cover page and reference page.
• At least 80% of your paper must be original content/writing.
• No more than 20% of your content/information may come from references.
• Use at least three references from outside the course material, one reference must be from EBSCOhost. Text book, lectures, and other materials in the course may be used, but are not counted toward the three reference requirement.
• Cite all reference material (data, dates, graphs, quotes, paraphrased words, values, etc.) in the paper and list on a reference page in APA style.
