Four Seasons in Paris
[ send me this essay ]
An 8 page paper assessing decisions at Four Seasons as it expanded into Paris. Four Seasons seeks to maintain minimum standards that are far beyond the range of most hotels’ superlative efforts. A Canadian company, it often is perceived as being an American one because of its concentration of American properties and attention to detail that is perceived by many to be more of an American trait. Entering France not only for the first time, but also in the form of acquiring and renovating the historic George V Hotel, Four Seasons’ primary problem lay in determining where to establish boundaries of culture, both corporate and national. It found creative solutions that would allow it to take advantage of both forms. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

[ send me this essay ]
14 pages in length.

From its original plant in Glenrothes, Scotland it has expanded rapidly and is planning a vigorous policy of overseas direct investment in its manufacturing capacity in a number of potential locations. The company enthusiastically adopted a number of HRM practices in the late 1980s including performance related pay, team working, and a strategy of total flexibility with a heavy use of temporary workers and flexible working time (including overtime on demand). It has always refused to recognize a trade union, relying instead on a variety of employee involvement practices. The current Chief Executive, Ed McGregor, is aware that Thistle's domestic non-union approach may not be sustainable in many of the target locations overseas but remains unsure about the precise labor market and employment relations environments which Thistle can expect to encounter.
