Whether a business student is studying marketing, finance, accounting, strategy, human relations, or operations management, the differences between countries in which a firm does business will affect decisions that must be made.

 A fundamental shift is occurring in the world economy. 

 The world is getting closer in terms of cross border trade and investment, by distance, time zones, languages and by national differences in government regulation, culture and business systems and toward a world in which national economies are merging into one huge interdependent global economic system. 

 Globalization is affecting firms that previously operated in a nice, easy, protected national market. It also illustrates the increasing importance of thinking globally.
