...Since Highschool, I have been set on becoming a business major and pursuing my dad’s career as a Strategic Business Development executive.

...and Space Intelligence Center (NASIC), with headquarters at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base, Ohio, is the primary Defense Department producer of foreign aerospace intelligence. NASIC develops its products by analyzing all available data on foreign aerospace forces and weapons systems to determine performance characteristics, capabilities, vulnerabilities and intentions. The center's assessments are also an important factor in shaping national security and defense policies. As the DoD expert on foreign aerospace system capabilities, the center historically has also been involved in supporting American weapons treaty negotiations and verification.

...REFLECTING ON CAREER IMPLICATIONS… ((CHAPTER 1—INTRODUCTION) REFLECTING ON CAREER IMPLICATIONS… 1. Attributes of Strategic Management: How do your activities and actions contribute to the goals of your organization? Observe the decisions you make on the job. What are the short-term and long-term implications of your decisions and actions? Have you recently made a decision that might yield short-term profits but might negatively impact the long-term goals of the organization (e.g., cutting maintenance expenses to meet a quarterly profit target)? 2. Intended versus Emergent Strategies: Don’t be too inflexible in your career strategies; strive to take advantage of new opportunities as they arise. Many promising career opportunities may “emerge” that were not part of your intended career strategy or your specific job assignment. Take initiative by pursuing opportunities to get additional training (e.g., learn a software or a statistical package), volunteering for a short-term overseas assignment, etc. 3. Ambidexterity: Avoid defining your role in the organization too narrowly; look for opportunities to leverage your talents and your organization’s resources to create value for your organization. This often involves collaborating with people in other departments or with your organization’s customers and suppliers. 4. Strategic Coherence: Focus your efforts on the “big picture” in your organization. In doing this, you should always strive...

...Dunkin Donuts is the MNE that I choose. Dunkin Donuts is an American global doughnut company and coffeehouse chain based in Canton, Massachusetts. It was founded in 1950 by William Rosenberg in Quincy, Massachusetts. Its logo is two D's side by side in orange and hot pink. Dunkin' Donuts has opened more than 10,000 locations in 32 countries worldwide, which include more than 6,700 Dunkin’ Donuts locations throughout the United States and more than 3000 international locations. This figure compares with the 17,009 stores of coffee chain Starbucks, whose baked goods are usually prepared out of shop. Nearly all of Dunkin' Donuts locations are franchisee owned and operated. Only 77 franchisees exist west of the Mississippi River, mostly in Iowa, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico. Within its Northeast home base, however, Dunkin' Donuts is particularly dominant and can be found in many gas stations, supermarkets, mall and airport food courts, and Wal-Mart stores. Outsourcing Human Resource Functions Many of the human resource functions are quite complicated. Small firms and those new to international business do not have the in-house capability to provide many services that internationalization requires and are compelled to contract them out to specialize outside vendors. To cut costs, increase efficiency, and focus on core competencies, many firms outsource nonstrategic human resource functions. Some functions, such as tax planning and preparation, have long been provided by outside...
