International Business: Why? And for what?





Por Mauro Libi.- When the domestic markets have been fully covered, companies seek to expand beyond borders, so it has been since ancient times, when the great civilizations of humanity sought new markets for the placement of their goods. We can’t forget that the contact of America and Europe began in this way, with the search for a new route to the Indies. But back to our times; let us first define what international business is.
 
    International businesses are the exchange of goods and services that takes place between agents belonging to different countries. It is a scenario where rules, conventions and behaviors apply that go beyond the local or regional. In times of globalization and digital revolution the distances that previously separated organizations that were at both ends of the globe have been reduced. New technologies put companies across the globe face to face and greatly simplify international business. There was never a better time for cross-border business operations.

     These technologies have meant that international trade is no longer a privilege of large conglomerates only, but is an option for many companies that want to explore commercial scenarios other than locals. In fact, the issue is now a necessity for organizations that have understood that the exchange of goods and services can’t be restricted to the boundaries that mark the borders of the country where they are located. 

     Why international business? For there are several reasons and although for every organization operate some causes and govern different expectations. Sales expansion is, if you will, the first big reason. Breaking the borders means a greater production of goods, services and a growth of the placement of them. Beyond national boundaries, there are simply more consumers than in local markets, but there is a condition for the expansion to work: Products have to generate enough interest and meet international quality standards then, we have to obtain new resources as another reason for international trade, and is that sometimes the motivation is to look for capital, technology, information or work strategies.

     Finally, we have the risk reduction; this is when the reason is not the establishment of an offensive strategy of expansion or growth, but protection and defensive. This operates when companies establish connections with organizations from abroad to minimize the risks of sales and profits when local businesses don’t give the expected result.

Mauro Libi: Social responsibility can improve your financial performance

 Social responsibility represents benefits for the society where the organizations are located, but for the companies too , since their effects are also felt in profitability.Just as you read it, it is proven that the risk of affecting the profitability of companies and enterprises grows when there is no specific application of responsibility with the organization's environment, nor transparency and business ethics. It is therefore, essential that organizations incorporate socially responsible actions into their management and, the benefits go beyond philanthropy or timely help that companies can provide to the communities where they operate.The actions of social responsibility are highly beneficial for organizations beyond the immediate effect that their action generates in society, and in the long term, the contribution that companies and enterprises make in their environment help generate a virtuous circle and healthy economic development.  How they do this...

Mauro Libi: Where is the performance evaluation points going?

On some occasions, we have recall to the performance evaluation but only in a lateral way, so in this opportunity we will talk a little bit more about the subject, in particular, on the trends of this system.Let us define that the performance evaluation is a formal system which objective is to estimate the accomplishment of the worker’s labor obligations.The idea is to document the performance and productivity of an employee to point out what areas they could improve.
