You are managing a project in a foreign country. In this country there is a normal practice for business people to exchange gifts when very large contracts, such as the one you are working on, are signed. The gift is of a greater value than your company’s policy for gift exchange will allow. You have given a gift of similar value to the customer’s representative already. What should you do?

a. Take the gift.

b. Contact your company’s management and seek assistance.

c. Refuse the gift graciously, explaining your company’s policy.

d. Ask the customer’s representative to give the gift to your manager.
