Danone’s Wrangle with Wahaha
After reading the case, discuss the following:
Identify the problem in the joint venture that triggered the conflict between the two companies and discuss the differences of each company’s understanding of their own respective roles and responsibilities in this venture.
As a leader, discuss ways you would handle conflict when it arises from organizational culture or national culture?
A case study is a puzzle to be solved and here is a strategy for formulating your paper:
Read the case study to identify the key issues and underlying issues. These issues are the principles and concepts of the course module, which apply to the situation described in the case study.
Study the facts and focus on relevant information; the case may have extraneous information not relevant to the current module.
Describe actions that would address or correct the situation and who should act upon what.
Draw from experience, course readings or real-life experience.
