Recently, approval was obtained to merge two companies, Focus USA and Global Inc. The newly formed company will be called Global Focus. While both companies have global branches, there are significant differences in how each company was lead and managed in the past. The organizational culture of Focus USA is more home country focused, while Global Inc. tends to be more global in culture. The new CEO, Mr. Juan Caldez, was the original CEO of Global Inc. You have been hired as the VP of HR to lead the transition of the two HR departments into one through the merger.

The first step in this process is to assess the global environment and then develop a plan to strategically merge these two HR departments. Instructions Prepare a Global
