Background:
Fit 4 Life is a fitness chain throughout the United States. They recently decided to open up four new gyms in London, with the objective of growing the organization globally and establishing an international presence.
The premise of Fit 4 Life's strategy is that clients use gyms as a social event. They promote clubs, small groups and large events throughout the month to encourage clients to come together socially as well as to work out. Each club has a general manager and 3-5 fitness instructors who provide support for the clients and the events.
The organization has decided to use this expansion as a pilot project and if all goes well, they will consider spreading out across Europe and South America. This is a strategic endeavor, so it is important that the organization finds an effective formula to operate successfully in the
global arena.
The organization has hired you to provide consultation on how they should proceed.
