Absolut Vodka Case Study

Read the Absolut Vodka case and answer the questions at the end.
Each student is expected to submit an individual written analysis of one case (Absolut Vodka). This analysis should be 1500-2000 words and should be submitted via Sakai “Assignments” by February 28. The case and questions for the write-up (at the end of the case) can be found in “assignments”.
Submissions will be evaluated based on 1) application of marketing concepts 2) deep analysis of case data and information 3) use of additional research outside the case and 4) detailed recommendations based on analysis that reflects critical thinking. Please ensure that you supplement case information with additional research on the company/situation, as well as make specific references to concepts that you apply and illustrate through your analysis. Please also make sure that you provide complete citations for all your information sources at the end. While your analysis should be based on the time period of the case and the information pertaining to that time period, add an epilogue at the end updating it to today. Given that this assignment accounts for a significant portion of your final grade, you are expected to conduct a detailed and critical analysis, offer clear recommendations, backed with data and research. The focus should be on analysis and recommendations while minimizing a repeat of case data.

ultural Etiquette Around the World

ultural Etiquette Around the World

It is estimated that more than half of all international joint ventures fail within two or three years. The reason most often given is cultural myopia and lack of cultural competency – not the lack of technical or professional expertise. Cultural competency is the foundation upon which a successful business is built. No longer is it enough to offer the best products and services, without being culturally savvy. Understanding the need for cultural awareness and sensitivity is the ante to get into the game of global business. How well you play depends upon your level of expertise.
Go ni itte wa go ni shitagae
When in Rome, Do as the Romans Do!
The Japanese version of this well-known proverb comes originally from Chinese, meaning “in a village do as the village does.” Even in ancient times, it was recommended that people follow the customs of the place one visits. The key to a successful trip – preparation, flexibility, a positive attitude, and the desire to learn about different cultures, and the patience to build long-term relationships. Cross-cultural tools will help managers avoid costly mistakes, negotiate more effectively, create business relationships with proper etiquette, obtain inter-cultural communication strategies while at the same time gaining an appreciation for the unique ethnic heritage of other societies. (Source: Cultural Savvy)
In order to develop these skills, you will have to examine the culture of the following countries:

Lesson 4 – Brazil, China, Turkey, and the United States
Lesson 6 – Canada, Mexico, the Netherlands, and Thailand
Lesson 8 – Argentina, Japan, the United Kingdom, and Vietnam
Lesson 10 – Chile, France, Malaysia, and South Korea
Lesson 12 – Colombia, Germany, India, and Indonesia

Information on these cultures must be obtained from the following links:

Brazil

China

Turkey

United States
You should identify only those key factors, both in the areas of business and personal etiquette, that you believe a manager should understand if they are to conduct business in each country. After reading about the countries and their cultures you should try to get a general impression of who they are so you will be able to tell if the quiz question is true or false even if you can’t recall a specific factor. You will only have 30 seconds to answer each true-false question. The Culture Quiz in each of these lessons will determine how well you understand the business and personal etiquette of these countries.
