The
Challenges of
Globalization

SPEC111-SS
 “
Globalization presents challenges for developed countries
as well. It has been blamed for high unemployment in
Europe and the stagnation of real wages in united states.
But increased competition from imports is at most a
secondary explanation for the decline real wages of less
skilled American workers.

SPEC111-SS
International
Recruiting
it is not surprising that 30% of US
and US tech leaders cited
international recruiting as their most
common challenges recruiting
across boarders creates unknown
HR teams (Velocity Global, 2020).

SPEC111-SS
 Employer
Challenges
A. Lack of local talent – struggle to
find qualified talent in their area
(Flook, 2019).
B. Ghosting – either don’t show up for
interviews or don’t respond to their
communication.
C. Sub- par job Ads – challenges with
writing strong ads that get responds.

SPEC111-SS
 Managing
Employee
Immigration
28% of US and UK tech leader
agreed it was one of their top
challenges immigration laws
changes often, and in some
countries, it is difficult to secure
visas for employees that are foreign
nationals (Velocity Global, 2020).

SPEC111-SS
 Incurring
tariffs and
Exports Fee For companies looking to sell
products abroad, getting those items
overseas can be experience,
depending on the market (Velocity
Global, 2020).

SPEC111-SS
Payroll and
Compliance
Challenges
Managing payroll and maintaining
compliance is another common global
expansion obstacle with changing
employment and tax laws.

SPEC111-SS
 Loss of while globalization has made foreign
Cultural
Identity countries easier to access, it has also
began to meld unique societies
together. The success of certain
cultures throughout the world caused
other countries to emulate them. But
when culture begin to lose their
distinctive features, we lose of global
diversity.
SPEC111-SS
 Foreign
Worker
Exploitation
Lower casts do benefit many
consumers, but it also creates tough
competition that leads some
companies to search for cheap labor
sources.

SPEC111-SS
 Global
Expansion
Difficulties
If companies take the traditional route
of setting up an entity, they need
substantial upfront capital, sometimes
up to $ 20 ,000 , and lost of $200,000
annually to maintain the business.

Challenges
and Local Job Globalization allows companies to

find lower cost ways to produce their
products. It also increases global
competition, which drives prices
down and creates a larger variety of
choices for consumer

RESPONSE TO THE
CHALLENGES IN
GLOBALIZATION
 Ruling elite in consultation with all stakeholders
should formulate vision for the country where it would
be in short to long period in the rapidly globalizing
world. Thus, it could be an active partner , without it,
the country could be a silent spectator or at worst a
passive recipient. However, articulating vision without
formulating following attendant policies and strategies
to achieve it is exercise in futility.

SPEC111-SS
 Policy
Framework To fully exploit the opportunities of
Needed globalization, first formulate business
friendly national economic policies which
encourage creation of exportable surplus of
high quality goods and services.
Government role should be confined to
legislation, policy development , regulation
while the private sector should take the
lead in investment and value chain
development on its own (Raja, 2018).
SPEC111-SS
 Broad
Objectives of  Increase productivity by increasing efficiency
this Policy in all processes and operation.
could be:  Increase profitability of all stakeholders by
providing them appropriate incentives and
rewards.
 Making exports competitive in the rapidly
globalizing world.
 Ensuring equitable distribution of gains from
enhanced productivity to all stakeholders.

SPEC111-SS
 Create
There is a lot of capacity in every industrial
Exportable
Surplus unit which cannot be utilized for one reason
or other costly imported raw material, lack of
finance, inadequate BMR, shortage of
expertise and etc. carry out comprehensive
analysis of export oriented industrial units
and find solutions for optimum utilization of
their excess capacity (Raja, 2018).

SPEC111-SS
Accelerating
Economic measure of output per unit of
Productivity
Growth input, productivity gains are vital to economy
as they allow us to accomplish more with
less (Raja, 2018).

SPEC111-SS
 Improving
World Bank ranks countries in its Ease of
Competitive
ness Doing Business Index for guidance of
potential global investors as well as states to
take corrective measures. Improve this
ranking by improving country’s physical
infrastructure, removing administrative
delays and enforcing strict accountability
regime (Raja, 2018).

SPEC111-SS
 Meeting
Developed countries are progressively
Social/Environ
mental imposing stringent social conditionality and
Standard environmental compliance rules. As such
meeting these requirements, not only from a
specific and technical perspective but also
from regulatory, social, environmental
performance and costumer specific
standpoints is essential in a rapidly
globalizing world (Raja, 2018).

SPEC111-SS
 Meeting
Promote culture of quality at every stage of
Quality
Standards value chain through awareness campaign,
appropriate legislation, institutional
mechanism (Raja, 2018).

Research and

Development
techniques, as a result in new products and
their cost- effective production- essential for
competing in rapidly globalizing world. For
this state it has to be proactive as the private
sector which is the ultimate beneficiary is not
willing to invest in this risky field (Raja,
2018).

SPEC111-SS
 Attracting
Direct foreign investments accelerates
Foreign
Investment growth rate and promotes exports by
bringing in capital, technology and
management practices. Attract foreign
investors for export oriented joint ventures
inside country and also establish joint
ventures abroad by co-opting local
industrialized (Raja, 2018).

SPEC111-SS
 Some cultures may attempt to resist
Reasserting
Local Identity globalization by reasserting local identity.
This may involve deliberately highlighting
and celebrating local folklore and languages.
For example, the French government have
banned words such as 'email', 'takeaway', and
now 'hashtag' and imposed a 'culture tax' on
cinemas showing non-French films
(Thompson, 2017).

SPEC111-SS
 Violent
A final response is the emergence of violent
Resistance
resistance, mostly in the developing world,
as some peoples interpret Globalization as an
assault on their identity (Thompson, 2017).

Struggles to
Economic
Globalization
Increase in ▹ Economic globalization is increasing GDP
Social
Instabilities
in all participating countries. At the same
time, it is also intensifying the shortages
in all national economies
▹ Negative income effects for certain people
and regions in the countries involved leads
to growing social tensions that have a
negative impact on economic
development
▹ Social tensions can also lead to increasing
populism (Petersten, 2020).
SPEC111-SS
Technological
 Present, technological progress primarily
Disruptions
means an increasing capital intensity of
production.
 highly developed economies, the demand
for labor is therefore declining
 low-skilled workers in particular can then
be affected by unemployment and loss of
income (Petersten, 2020)

SPEC111-SS
Competing workers may be unable to defend against the
lower cost- threat of corporation that offer the alternative
markets for
job
between lower pay or losing jobs

SPEC111-SS
 Economic
exploitation of
 A relationship in the distribution of
labor economic wealth wherein a worker does
not receive proper amount of income or
entitlement
 Child workers who used to work in an
inhumane conditions
 Safety standards are ignored to produced
cheap goods

SPEC111-SS
Wages and
▹ in any job market, those with a higher
Inequality
level of skills are the ones who receive
the most work, and those with less skill
may not receive the benefit of higher
paying jobs with a foreign company
(Natter, 2019).
▹ inequity develops among the working
class creating a divide within the local
economies

innovator opens up new horizons for
innovation creation at global level and
subsequently at the national level and vice
versa (ScienceDirect.com)
