1. Considering the facts about Kazakhstan, please discuss which staffing strategy - according to the EPRG model (ethnocentric, polycentric, regiocentric or geocentric strategy)- would be the most suitable for Kazakhstan. Please justify your answer. Comment on advantages and disadvantages of your decision.
2. Analyze the company and country-specific situation by using the steps outlined in Figure 4. Plan the number and nature of short/medium-term (2013-2016) as well as long-term (2017-2020) staffing requirements for Bosch Kazakhstan in analogy to the strategic company goals. The staffing plan should consider the sources of staffing (expatriates, employees of the local Management Development plan or special programs such as the JMP program or external local staff).
