IT 402 Week 6 Discussion
The Global Consultant
Global Consulting Concerns (Research)
Your initial post for this Discussion Board requires online research and the choice of one suitable source. Please view the Unit 1 Reading Resource PDF for information about what constitutes a suitable source. Do not use the textbook or library articles for this discussion; easy access for the rest of the class will facilitate better discussion.
First make sure you have done the unit to understand the concepts relating to issues that arise with Consulting in other countries. Then perform an online search for a good or service offered in another country that has its roots in the United States. Investigate whether or not the item is offered under a different name, different packaging, etc. and see if you can find any reasoning behind the choice to offer the product in that country.
Example: Cheetos has a shrimp flavored version of their snack in Thailand; shrimp is a common ingredient in many of the country's dishes. (Do not use this specific example, and remember to provide at least 100 words in your initial post.)
For the initial post:
·        In your first paragraph, describe the item, including any packaging, brand name, or item name changes. Do not quote from the article or copy lists; write in your own words. End the paragraph with a proper APA in-text citation.
·        In your second paragraph, explain any reasoning provided by the company or other research as to why they offer the item in that country. If no information of this sort can be found, instead provide an explanation why you think the company decided to offer the item in that country. If you use a source for this paragraph, use proper APA in-text citation.
·        At the end of the post, provide full APA reference entries for any sources used.
Subject line instruction: Write a descriptive subject line for your initial post in this Discussion. Do not label it with your name, the unit number, or the unit name; it should be unique and identify the content.
In your responses to others, you could attempt to connect the reasoning for why these items are offered in other countries to IT products or services.
