People demands in “world economic geography change” and CF supplys
Globalization The growth of TNCs => Oversea assignments increase => Same-standard branches are available in all the world for international members International standard demands => outsource the foreign exercises from native countries Flexible time
Developement • Lame incomes and development in developing countries => high quality service for high income areas • Worldwide care about health development => international standard scientific trainning programs
Population and environment Population explosion and city’s lame population => traffic jam => scientific branch-distribution Pollution and noise => a better replacement for outdoor exercises Job’s task increase => all spa, café shop, gym, etc, in the same place => save time Food pollution and fake foods => creditable nutrient products
Potentials • Cheap labor price • The increase of living standard • The increase of city and new commercial centers • The foreign investments in Asia • Outsource new native exercise
Advantage • Supply jobs for Asians with higher income • Motivate the living-standard development in Asia • Placeless fitness centers for TNCs’ staffs • Do not decrease jobs of US • Good for environment
weakness • Although they have US directors for operation and standard guaranty, the bad management and services of local staff make a big effect • Global standard statement but the local standard staff • Do not make significant economic effect • Can’t prevent the social problems occur in they fitness centers
suggestion • The co-management with 1 US and 1 local manager • More obvious prices for each countries • Flexibility to local culture • Direct feedback from customers
Is this model of TNC harmless or just another no-effect TNC ?
