Answer 1

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:

Step-by-step explanation:

1.There are many factors to consider that the company must bear in mind when sending these managers as expatriates.

In the following executive summary we will analyze what challenges must be faced according to the country where they will be sent.

In the case of France, the work environment is highly formal and follows a hierarchical structure already defined, so they must adapt to their role as manager and comply with the imposed requirements, which in turn is important.

As for the social and cultural sphere, it is important to comply with the punctuality and formality protocols required in each of the events or meetings to be held, in addition to feeling respect and admiration for them.

2. Regarding Mexico, the work environment is very healthy, and expatriates are highly respected and appreciated, although they must meet all the labor requirements and additional demands regarding extra work.
