2. Management activities critically analyzed with examples
2.1 International management function of coordinating and controlling
Essentially, managerial synchronization as well as manage is captivating a methodical approach
to figure out if they are performing what they required to be responsibility or not. It's the fraction
of development following they have chosen what they necessary to be performing. Underneath
are a few of the main methods to managerial organizing as well as synchronization (Zimmerer,
T. W., et al., 1998).
2.2 Numerous persons are reluctant to Management Control
Fresh, additional "natural" shapes otherwise firms let company to be additional approachable as
well as flexible in today's fast altering globe. These shapes too grow empowerment amongst
workers, much additional than the hierarchical, strictly prearranged firms of the earlier period.
Numerous persons declare that as the nature of corporations has distorted consequently should
the nature of administration manage. A few persons depart consequently distant as to maintain
that supervision should not work out a few shape of manage whatever. They maintain that
administration must survive to hold up human resources hard work to be completely creative
associates of corporations as well as group of people so, some shape of manage is totally oppose
creative to administration as well as workforce (Sotiriou, D., et al., 2001).
A few persons still respond powerfully alongside the expression administration control. The
statement itself can have an apathetic insinuation, e.g., it can character control, coercive because
fine because severe handed. It appears that writers of management text now favor employ of the
expression "coordinate" quite than scheming.


2.3 Coordination must exist or there's no corporation: Only an experience
Despite of the unenthusiastic nuance of the expression control, it have to survive otherwise there
is refusal corporation at all. In its the majority essential shape, a firm is two or additional
persons operational jointly to arrive at a target. Whether a corporation is extremely technical or
altering as well as self organize, the company should survive for a few cause, a few reason, a few
task otherwise it is not a firm at all. The corporation should have a few objectives. Recognize
this objective needs a few appearance of planning, relaxed or official. Attainment the objective
means identifying a few approaches, proper or relaxed. These approaches are decided winning
through associates of the firm by a few shape of communication, prescribed or familiar. Then
associates place concerning to do something in agreement with what they decided to perform.
They might alter their brains, well. Other than they require to distinguish as well as admit that
they are altering their brains (El-Sabaa, S., 2001).
This shape of continuing communication to arrive at a target, path behavior to the objective as
well as then following choices concerning what to perform is the spirit of administration
synchronization, it requirements to survive in a few way prescribed or familiar.
The subsequent are quite characteristic techniques of harmonization in firms. They are employed
as means to converse way and direct behaviors in that track. The purpose of the subsequent
techniques is not to "control" other than quite to direct. If as of continuing communications
amongst management as well as staff, the way alters, then well. The subsequent techniques are
altered therefore.
Numerous of the next techniques are consequently ordinary that they frequently do not believe of
them because having everything to perform with synchronization at all. Refusal substance what
one calls the subsequent techniques synchronization or control they are significant to the
achievement of a few corporation.

2.4 Numerous managerial Controls
Corporations frequently employ typical texts to make sure whole as well as reliable data is met.
Texts comprise headings as well as dates to notice dissimilar descriptions of the paper.
Computers have rebellion managerial controls by employ of incorporated administration data
structures etc. Firms characteristically need a broad variety of reports to check what's being
completed through when and how (Boyatzis, R. E., 1982).

2.4.1 Delegation
Delegation is an approach to obtain equipment completed, in combination with additional human
resources. Delegation is frequently sighted because a main means of pressure as well as so is
classified because an action in foremost. Delegation usually comprises transmission
responsibility to a worker to total a job, yielding the worker enough power to increase the
sources to perform the job as well as hire the personnel choose how that job will be carried out.
Characteristically, the individual conveying the job shares answerability with the worker for
ensure the job is whole (Blackburn, S., 2002).

2.4.2 Assessments
Assessment is cautiously gathering and examining data in order to create choices. There are a lot
of kinds of assessments in firms, for instance, assessment of advertising attempts, assessment of
worker efficiency, agenda assessments etc. Assessments can focal point on numerous features of
a firm as well as its procedures, for instance, its targets, procedures, results etc.

2.4.3 Performance Management
Performance management (PM) focal point on the efficiency of the entirety firm comprising its
procedures, serious as well as workforce, the majority of them has a few essential feeling of
worker efficiency administration, counting the responsibility of productivity evaluations.
Productivity appraisals give an chance for managers as well as their staff to frequently converse
concerning targets, how fine those targets must be gathered, how fine the targets are being gather
as well as what should be completed to carry on to convene those targets. The worker is
recompensed in a few shape for gathering productivity normal otherwise embarks on a growth
plan with the manager in arrange to get better output.

2.4.4 Policies and Procedures
Policies assist make sure that performances in the place of work be traditional to state or federal
rules as well as too to hopes of the firm. Frequently, strategies are related to stated conditions in
the shape of process. Workers strategies as well as events assist make sure that worker rules are
go after as well as reduce the probability of expensive court case. A process is a gradually record
of activities necessary to behavior a sure job. Events make sure that custom works are taken out
in an effectual as well as well-organized style (McDaniel, K., et al., 1996).

2.4.5 Safety, Liabilities and risks
For kinds of causes, firms are focusing a huge contract of notice to activities that reduce threat,
shun responsibility and make sure security of staff. Numerous decades before, it was uncommon
to perceive sound of a firm responsibility emergency preparation, tragedy improvement
preparation otherwise serious event analysis. Currently persons activities are flattering ordinary
(Addison, T., 2003).


3. Qualities and attributes important of a manager in responsibility about activities in
international background

3.1 Skills and Competencies of International Managers
Customary big business techniques are being completed superfluous through the rush of
globalization. Managers who carry on doing their customary decision-making skills extended
increased in business schools are judgment themselves unproductive in the international
environment. Globalisation is a theoretical condition where political boundaries turn into more
and more immaterial, financial interdependencies are intensified as well as nationwide
dissimilarities owing to dissimilarity in communal cultures are central subjects of big business.
The world with its multifaceted as well as lively forces, develop into a worldwide market for
international managers (Kedia and Mukherji 1999), in such a globe merely the ones who
appreciate the crash globalization causes as well as therefore adjust so will stay alive. Therefore
to be spirited in the worldwide market the customary managers should exceed as well as turn into
international managers.

A review of literature has been assumed to recognize the worldwide attitude as well as the
abilities and capabilities necessary to the worldwide managers. As of the many structures, this
document suggests a novel structure plan consisting of (1) information capabilities; (2)
interpersonal capabilities and (3) individual capabilities. Skills as well as capabilities in these
groups are inter-reliant of every additional suggestive of that the growth of single group cannot
survive with no the additional.

3.2 Global Managers
Previous to frame the abilities and capabilities essential to flattering effectual worldwide
managers, it is necessary to appreciate who as well as what worldwide managers are. There are
many previous studies as well as literature obtainable on this theme as well as thus far there
appear to be refusal agreement towards a united meaning. It is through the functions as well as
roles of the current that capabilities are got shape. Though, owing to the deviation of the meaning
of the international manager, the functions and purposes that put them separately as of home
managers have too not been obviously explained as well as decided winning. The dissimilar
functions credited to the worldwide managers presented through Caligiuri (2006) are sketched in
Table. Therefore appears the conflicting structures of capabilities of the international manager.

3.3 Table: Two presented sets of functions ascribed to the international manager


Argument presented by Baruch (2002) and Bartlett & Ghoshal (1994) was controversial as it was
against the famous concept that there are managers who can work across the globe. Bartlett &
Ghoshal were in contrast at the view that they there is a difference between quality of work by a
specialist and a manager who is responsible for every thing. They gave an example that the
levels of quality in work that can be achieved from a combination of a corporate manager leading
and integrating the work done by three types of managers like country manager, operational
manager and business managers all have different fields of specialty. So, according to them all
these managers have different roles and one cannot best perform the job of other as he does not
have practice of that work. According to Baruch, there are not such standards exists in the
literature of management that can describe best the characteristic of the role of a global manager.
In the end they also conclude that without having knowledge of local markets and other
necessary qualities a manager cannot work in a foreign country. This conclusion does not match
with their own argument that there is no existence of global managers. Jokinen (2005)
considering the differentiations present by Baruch and Bartlett state that their work describes the
features of global management that is a world wide accepted concept of management.

Amongst the numerous definitions, global managers are those who understand different cultures
and lead mixed-nationality teams (Barnevik, 2001) and are able to unleash human potential
and leverage the richness that lies in cultural diversity (Whitfield, 2003). One working globally
may expect that managers working globally should play the significant role of being a controller,
modernizer, instructor, strategist and integrator. A manager, who has vision of working globally
and who in fact, is equipped with all the qualities and his way of thinking along with his
knowledge and skills can be regarded as a global manager (Kedia and Mukherji, 1999). All these
skills and knowledge will prove helpful for the managers in order to be successful in the global
markets and to get competitive advantages for their organizations.

3.4 Essential Competencies of a Global Manager
There are numerous models that describes the necessary competencies of global managers as we
can observe from the table given below, however, a new model is suggested for the present paper
which can bring into discussion the features of global competencies. In order to describe best
all the necessary competencies that should be possessed by a global manager, literature on the
concerned topic is being reviewed. All the competencies that were integrated in that model are (i)
they always consider solid facts and figures and have capacity of achieving their targets; (ii)
having abilities like cognition and such behaviors that can lead to successful accomplishment of
assigned tasks; (iii) having basic personal skills and knowledge which is developable. There may
three meta-competencies classifications of these competencies like; (1) competencies regarding
knowledge and skills (2) interpersonal competencies; and (3) personal competencies.
















3.5 Table: Leadership competencies of global leaders. Examples of some existing
frameworks

(The table Leadership Competencies of Global Leaders (Parker 2005, 385).

3.6 Knowledge competencies
So far as competencies regarding knowledge and skills are concerned these relate to
technological, industrial and business related real information and strong understanding of these
facts. All these are the key points for being perceived as a global manager (Jokinen, 2005). Here
by competencies we mean best understanding of international business, diversity of cultures, risk
management at international level, international working standards and know-how about
technology and industry.
3.7 International knowledge
What is international knowledge; it is a clear vision regarding social, political and economical
systems of the country in which organization is working. While working globally internationally
acceptable standards of business illustrates that organizations should follow all the rules and
regulations of that country in which they are not native. A clear understanding of all will help
managers in their decisions in global perspective. Managers doing international business should
be aware of some major issues like international law, international finance and relative labor
relations (Caligiuri 2006). Knowledge and all these skills will help the managers in expanding
their businesses beyond their native country boundaries and will provide them a competitive
edge.

3.8 Global risk management

Mihaly Simais definition of international risk as important, potential disturbing and
destabilizing factors or acts originating with, or generated by, various actors on different
structural levels, and having spillover consequences for other members of the international
community was quoted by Parker (2005). Dishonesty, fluctuations in the exchange rates and
changes in the political environment are some common risks attached with international
businesses. Organizations working globally can avail many tactics for improving the depth of
their business activities like if they are facing heavy wage rates to their native country they may
move to county where they wages are comparatively nominal and if in some countries suppliers
are charging abnormal prices they may find a cheap supplier for them anywhere in the world.
International business need global managers to face uncertainties attached with it and they have
to be ready to face maximum risks they can imagine. However, it can observe from the past that
in the year 2000 risks like these were not properly managed by the organizations.

4. Internal and external factors influence the work of the global manager in the
specific country
4.1 Business in the UAE
A business culture having full dimensions of diversity within it is in United Arab Emirates (Al-
Shaikh., 2001). People working in different organizations in the country are coming almost from
every country of the world. Everyone in the country can enjoy freedom in his business, economic
and social activities due to its moderate culture, specially one city Dubai, the business hub of the
country, was developing at a fast pace. Considering the Liberty of Dubai many international
business empires established their regional offices in the city. The managers of future can have
inspirations from 2020 project introduced by government of Dubai. The country was becoming
famous in the global markets due to its oil reserves, which are source of strategic benefits for the
country.
Islam being a global religion has every thing for all the countries and people of the world
including Dubai especially as it is an Islamic country. Islam is a religion of all the people of the
world that is not only the legacy of any part of the world and everyone in the world can have
guidance from the Holy Book of Almighty Allah. Holy Prophet Muhammad (Peace Be Upon
Him) presented for the first time an idea of Islamic country having a formal constitution (Pact of
Medina) securing not only the rights of Muslims of Medina but as well as other minorities, this
was the first step towards development of an international Islamic culture based on society of
Medina. The last sermon of the Holy prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) was having an order or
declaration for all people of the world regarding rights of humanity. In reality this was the very
base of globalization of world countries.
An individual having all the technical knowledge, well settled family matters, assisted by his/her
life partner, passion of working globally, experience of dealing diversity of cultures, good
communication abilities and know how to manage anxiety can be regarded as a global manager.
In order to be successful in international business environment managers should have
personalities full of flexibility to be adjusted in any part of the world and should not have biased
behavior in regard of anyones beliefs and religion, in fact he need to respect everyone. A
burning question is that can women of the world become part of international business in
countries like UAE that are liberal but as well as conservative at the same time. However, they
may feel comfortable in the free environment of western world (Hebard, 1996).


5. Conclusion
There are many researches on the global managers and their functioning but scholars are still
having difference of opinion regarding a single definition of a global manager. It is for that
reason that a single definition cannot be enough for explaining the features of a global manager.
In order to be a successful global manager, not only they should possess the ability to work with
set standards but they should have some extra-ordinary competencies. International mansagers
should possess all the competencies and having a set of competencies will require managers to
have more and more because all these competencies are interlinked with each other.
