Question

Joe and Debra are deeply interested in the well-being of the cocoa farmers they buy from. Imagine that they were thinking about starting a global service program, in which Theo Chocolate employees would live in cocoa-growing communities for a year at a time, contributing their management and technical expertise. What advice would you give Joe and Debra? Check all that apply.

A) Global service programs were a fad in the early part of the 21st century, but the large corporations that tried them have mostly stopped.
B) Theo Chocolate would probably benefit from such a program because the employees who participate will have greater cross-cultural awareness.
C) Employees often view such assignments as highly desirable and would likely see the opportunity to participate in such a program as a benefit of working for Theo Chocolate.
D) By immersing some of its employees in the communities where it does business, Theo Chocolate would gain a more intimate knowledge of emerging markets, perhaps allowing it to sell chocolate or other foods there someday.

Answer 1

Answer: Theo Chocolate would probably benefit from such a program because the employees who participate will have greater cross-cultural awareness.

Step-by-step explanation:

The global service program would be beneficial to Theo chocolates as the workers would have the opportunity to learn about new cultures as they get to interact with farmers from the villages where the cocoa is being farmed. This would make the workers at Theo chocolates to have a high level of cross-cultural awareness.
