This two-part research paper, with Part 2 due in Week 10, will analyze the cultural perspectives of doing business in another country. The focus of the paper is to explore the economic and business resources of the selected country to decide if it presents a viable and productive import / export opportunity for your organization.

Because the following countries are currently newsworthy, it is tempting to get wrapped up in political and social issues rather than the business focus of this assignment. Countries to avoid for this assignment include: Afghanistan, China, India, Iran, Iraq, Israel, Libya, Pakistan, Palestine, North Korea, Venezuela, and Yemen. Select a different country from the one you selected in Assignment 1

Write a six to eight (6-8) page paper in which you:

Determine the major elements and dimensions of the business culture in the selected country.

Determine how these elements and dimensions are integrated by local residents conducting business in the country.

Compare both the major elements and dimensions with U.S. culture and business.

Determine the challenges for U.S. businesses that wish to conduct business in that country.
