Describe the corporate philosophy -> Robert Bosch said that he wanted to promote the moral, physical and intellectual development of people. Scan environmental conditions > The language spoken in Kazakhstan is Kazakh but Russian is considered to be an ofcial language. The unemployment rate is 5.8% and the average salary was about 527 US dollars per month. The education system is not the best so it can be difficult for companies to find a qualified employee even if they have a university degree. Evaluate corporate strengths and constraints -> Bosch has 4 production sites in different locations. They are each a different division which are gasoline, BoschRemth, security systems and diesel motors. Small or no growth is planned for the next 10 years for gasoline, Bosch Rexroth and security systems. However, diesel is growing very fast and has 30% estimated growth in the next 3 years. The labor market for qualified managers is very small and external hires will take long to begin work the in Germany. Local candidates have little mobility and lack national or international experiences. The production sites are not locations qualified employees want to work. Develop objectives and goals > One objective is that Bosch wants to utilize their highpotential employees without compromising on performance. Another objective is staffing requirements and development for the upcoming four years. A consistent planning and tracking of employees' development and career advancement. Use overseas assignments, project tasks and cross- functional moves and common development measures
