THE THREE STAGES OF CORPORATE DEVELOPMENT
Integrating export + FDI
MULTINATIONALISATION
/GLOBALIZATION
Mainly global activities
relying on multinational
structures
LOCAL DEVELOPMENT
("go native")
multi-local activities
INITIAL INTERNATIONALIZATION relying on de-localized
("first landing") structures/connections
mainly local activities
with some cross border
developments, relying on domestic
and proximity
structures/connections
RATIONALE OF “PREST” MODEL
Identification of the major « universal » external Vietnamese pressures creating new
opportunities / constraints within the area of reference for all the companies operating in
Vietnam and, especially, in the considered sector (e.g. hostellery in India)
Political-Regulatory: (positive/negative?) impact of deregulation and access to new
domestic/national/economic zones
Economic and Social: (positive/negative?) impact of demography and improvement of living
standards (Vietnam as an emerging country),
Technology: (positive/negative?) impact of infrastructures improvements, technology transfer
expectations, quicker technological trends diffusion through internet and communication
networks
Evaluating resulting main challenges on specific target sector (hostellery) :

Competition: assess the nature of competition, the impact of environment changes on the various
groups of competitors, evaluate likely new comers from mature/emerging economies
Adaptation: react  anticipate to new expectations from local/foreign customers, identify
institutional, structural and process adjustments
Re-deployment: evaluate the level of necessity to embark on new services and new target areas
Defining the actors’ possible « levers » to operate (for every company involved)
Profitability: cut costs, improve revenue and margins, provide « fuel » for furtherl growth
Structuration: extend more largely the organisation in the target area (and beyond)
throughfranchise, management contracts, coordinate/adjust structures and procedures
Innovation: create & market new services, develop new production and/or distribution processes

– From GATT to WTO (1995): the extension of the « in’t trade community»
 a larger display for the intensified trade and FDI flows?
– A come back of the history (Fukuyama denied) + Brexit + Trump
 towards a renewed protectionism
• Economic & Social
– Towards a demographic and standards of living re-balancing
 mature economies decay v. emerging economies leadership?
– The resistive influence of market imperfect competition and crises accelerated
transmisison
 the impact of forex and world prices fluctuations, as on int’l demand/offer
– Isomophism v. globalization
 behavioural convergences v. cultural preferences?
• Technological
– Communication revolution

players
• In relation with local realities/grounds which could be explored by

groups of researchers (academics connected to professionals)

Challenges of International
Management on the Dawn of the
21st Century
Lemaire, Mayrhofer, Milliot (2012)
21
Introduction: lessons learnt from structural &
conjectural changes in a turbulent
environment
• Political and Regulatory
– Liberalization of mature economies
– Economic transition of emerging/fast growing economies
 Decompartmentalization > Globalization
• Economic and Social
– Progressive shift of the world gravity center from “North/West” to
”South/East”, for economic power, as for offer and demand
– Redeployment of trade and investment flows, with an increasing
concern (if not action) in favor of enduring development.
 New stakeholders and new expectations
• Technological
– Accelerated obsolescence, quick evolving standards, including pollution
– Speeding up of physical and virtual communications as of crises diffusion
 Increasing transparency and reactivity
 Necessity for organizations to conciliate numerous new structural
and conjectural constraints & opportunities
22
1. Relate more analysis and diagnosis to
decision-making
• Following a three steps “funneling” process, encompassing

entity(ies)/organization(s) nowadays “exposed”/internationally “open”:
– At a macro-level, the review of the permanent and accelerating

transformations of the major dimensions of the target/reference geographical
area in which it/they operate(s).
– At a meso/intermediate level, the assessment of their consecutive impact on

all entities operating in the same activity/sector/industry , in this area, to
identify the possible strategies, for them to select /implement.
– At a micro level, the formulation by each entity’s corporate decision, first

strategic, and, then, structural, cultural and functional. (e.g.HR, R&D, supply
chain, marketing, finance, control, legal , tax..)
24
The « funnel » approach
the three successive steps through FOLLOWING THE PREST MODEL
-Political-regulatory, economic & social, technological- three layers approach

2. Consider the extending range of
economic and political stakeholders
internationally “exposed”..
• Beyond “horizontal” international -market seeking- expansion analyses
(Markusen, 1984; Glass, 2008), focus more on “verticalization” -i.e.
optimization of the value chain- (Helpman, 1984).
• Consider partnerships and networks among the diversity of entities/

organizations, to gain access to unfamiliar territories, to face increasing
competition and to share resources better than acting alone.
• Include public and private entities newly and increasingly concerned by

international opening (non-governmental organizations, multi-governmental
organizations, local authorities etc.).
• Focus on interactions among these various entities, especially between

authorities representing territories at different levels, whose objectives have to
conciliate with hosted or potentially hosted institutions.
Conciliate the interest of various entities:
the example of the localization decision
MACRO-ECONOMIC LEVEL OF THE HOST TERRITORY
Openness, stability and credibility of local authorities
Objectives of valorization of the national/regional/local
economic territories
Restrictions imposed and advantages offered
LOCALIZATION DECISION (go/no go)

Object of territorial choice (horizontalization/verticalization)
Identification of favored industries/sectors/activities
Optimization of entry mode /relation/setting-up
•FINALIZATION OF THE STRATEGY FOR THE TERRITORIAL APPROAC
MICRO-ECONOMIC LEVEL OF THE ORGANIZATION

Stimulation of development of relations with the territory
Horizontalization/verticalization
Resources and strengths specific to the organization
Capacity to bear local/international risks
27
3. Question more traditional incentives and
international development frameworks
• Due to the loss of relative importance, in terms of GDP, between mature economies
(essentially the countries in the Triad) and emerging economies (notably the fast
growing economies / FGE)
• Activities/sectors/industries dynamics more or less “globalized”, deserve to be

deepened, to better understand constraints and favorable perspectives for the
involved actors from different geographical origins.
• Beyond Dunning’s and Uppsala 1 & 2 rationale, organizations tend to diverge in

terms of incentives and international development schemes:; facing the new
technological environment as the new balance of power
• For instance, organizations such as born global from quick evolving activities are
aiming at immediate international expansion , as international champions from FGE
are seeking worldwide technological leadership.
Example of new international development
scheme: International champions from FGE
29
4. Enlight the role of multicultural interactions
in organizations’ development schemes and
relationship networks
• Organizations tend to adopt evolving international structures, characterized by
an increased flexibilization, that generate, internally and externally, intercultural
relationships of very different natures.
• A diversity of cultural interactions could be associated, with internationalization

such as intercultural negotiation, leading multicultural teams, relations between
HQ and foreign operations, or the design and adaptation of products from/for
different cultural as geographical contexts..
• While organic growth facilitates corporate culture diffusion, external growth,

through mergers and acquisitions (amicable or hostile), as well as partnerships
developed within larger geographical frameworks, place the organizations, in
complex and, even, strained cultural situations.
• During their development and geographical deployment, it is therefore

interesting to better measure the transformation of their organizational culture
and to consider its diffusion among their various locations.

Conclusion
• These four perspectives, in no way exhaustive, cover essential aspects of the IB
field and already federate a number of reflections and analyses, responding to new
questions raised by organizations, more and more exposed in an increasingly open
international space.
– They favor transversal and environmental analysis and systemic approaches of

internationalization, by giving, notably, to crisis situations, all the importance dictated by
the evolutions of the past two decades.
– They engage to better apprehend the most innovative incentives and orientations
among the actors concerned by international openness (traditional and new) and to
consider more specifically organizational and cultural dimensions associated with
international development.
– They encourage, to consider the impact of internationalization on the functions, by

connecting them with one another, and emphasizing their interdependence within the
framework of the internationalization strategy fromulation and implementation.
