You are in the role of project manager for a coffee franchise global expansion project. You plan to expand into two different countries. The magnitude of the project requires you to prepare for the project kickoff meeting and business negotiations with the project team who are potential partners from Mexico and China. You understand that these cultures are vastly different. They have different business customs, social protocols, and languages, so conducting business with each country requires a customized approach.

To prepare for your first outreach effort with each country, analyze the cultural similarities and differences that exist between the countries and the United States using Geert Hofstede's Six Cultural Dimensions (link here and below) as discussed in the assignment notes, chats, etc. Note that the two countries are characterized by collectivism while the United States has an individualist culture.

Once you have done your research, compare and contrast each country according to your findings. Discuss the implications of the relative cultural dimensions based on what you read related to Hofsteds from the web site. How might they impact managing the global expansion project? Remember that you are adapting your approach from a United States point of view. (400-600 words).

This assignment lays the foundation for IP4, where you will apply your findings to forming an effective global team.

Step One:

Visit Geert Hofstede Cultural Dimensions

Step Two:

Create a country comparison using the United States in first dropdown menu box to see the values for the six cultural dimensions. After selecting the United States, a second country can be chosen in the second dropdown menu box. Keep the United States in the first box and then repeat for each country (Mexico and China) involved in the fast food expansion project to see a comparison of their scores.

Step Three:

Using your findings:

Explain Hofstede’s cultural dimensions.
Using the United States as a basis for comparison, evaluate each country's similarities and differences relative to the franchise business deployment.
Discuss the implications for your initial communications within each country.  For example, what is the impact of collectivism relative to individualism regarding management communication?

Pastas R Us, Inc. is a fast-casual restaurant chain specializing in noodle-based dishes, soups, and salads. Since its inception, the business development team has favored opening new restaurants in areas (within a 3-mile radius) that satisfy the following demographic conditions:

Median age between 25 – 45 years old
Household median income above national average
At least 15% college educated adult population


Last year, the marketing department rolled out a Loyalty Card strategy to increase sales. Under this program, customers present their Loyalty Card when paying for their orders and receive some free food after making 10 purchases.



The company has collected data from its 74 restaurants to track important variables such as average sales per customer, year-on-year sales growth, sales per sq. ft., Loyalty Card usage as a percentage of sales, and others. A key metric of financial performance in the restaurant industry is annual sales per sq. ft. For example, if a 1200 sq. ft. restaurant recorded $2 million in sales last year, then it sold $1,667 per sq. ft.



Executive management wants to know whether the current expansion criteria can be improved. They want to evaluate the effectiveness of the Loyalty Card marketing strategy and identify feasible, actionable opportunities for improvement. As a member of the analytics department, you’ve been assigned the responsibility of conducting a thorough statistical analysis of the company’s available database to answer executive management’s questions.



Report: 

Write a 750-word statistical report that includes the following sections:

Section 1: Scope and descriptive statistics
Section 2: Analysis
Section 3: Recommendations and Implementation


Section 1 - Scope and descriptive statistics

State the report’s objective.
Discuss the nature of the current database. What variables were analyzed?
Summarize your descriptive statistics findings from Excel. Use a table and insert appropriate graphs.


Section 2 - Analysis 

Using Excel, create scatter plots and display the regression equations for the following pairs of variables:
“BachDeg%” versus “Sales/SqFt”
“MedIncome” versus “Sales/SqFt”
“MedAge” versus “Sales/SqFt”
“LoyaltyCard(%)” versus “SalesGrowth(%)”
In your report, include the scatter plots. For each scatter plot, designate the type of relationship observed (increasing/positive, decreasing/negative, or no relationship) and determine what you can conclude from these relationships.


Section 3: Recommendations and implementation

Based on your findings above, assess which expansion criteria seem to be more effective.Could any expansion criterion be changed or eliminated? If so, which one and why?
Based on your findings above, does it appear as if the Loyalty Card is positively correlated with sales growth? Would you recommend changing this marketing strategy?
Based on your previous findings, recommend marketing positioning that targets a specific demographic. (Hint: Are younger people patronizing the restaurants more than older people?)
Indicate what information should be collected to track and evaluate the effectiveness of your recommendations. How can this data be collected? (Hint: Would you use survey/samples or census?)
Cite references to support your assignment

Case Study 2- Keurig: From David to Goliath: The Challenge of Gaining and Maintaining Marketplace Leadership C-87 (Case appendix)

Welcome to the capstone case writing exercise which is unique by itself in its design and implementation/ compliance. 
First you have to read the contents of the text that begins with Part 4: Case Studies which starts after p. 442 of your textbook. 

In the case studies list, you will see almost 30 cases. But we only need two cases for this capstone class because of paucity of time (7wks only). Otherwise the total capstone experience would have been on case studies and analysis alone. 

The author’s instruction on preparing an effective case analysis is on pp. C4-C12 "Preparing an Effective Case Analysis" and you must be thoroughly read all of it. This gives you a detailed instruction to what to expect from in class case discussions. Please read carefully pages. You will have to conform to the exact standard set forth in this article titled, preparing an effective case analysis.

While preparing a written case presentation you must provide the following

strategic profile and case analysis purpose 
situation analysis
general environmental analysis 
industry analysis
competitor analysis
internal analysis
identification of environmental opportunities (generally known as SWOT analysis)
strategy formulation
strategic alternative implementation
and the process issues (for logical consistency) 
For purposes of case writing, you should not limit your analysis to facts in the  the case rather, in starting your analysis use Appendix ! sources of industry and competitor analysis in the form of abstracts and indices that you must refer to, to make your analysis appropriately succinct.

Also, Appendix 2, you will find that the author gives you the financial analysis example formulas with different ratios that are applicable to the case analysis. You should uncover from abstract and indices these numerical formulas and facts, in order to determine whether the company that you are critiquing is up to the mark on not, in your opinion. Such profitability ratios are important indices for your understanding of capstone case analysis.
