Great topic. There are many significant risks in Change Management for Multi-Country Transactions:
The main one for me is Cultural Differences
Risk: Diverse cultural norms, communication styles, and workplace practices can lead to misunderstandings, resistance to change, and integration challenges.
Suggestions:
Conduct cultural assessments to identify differences and potential clashes.
Involve local leaders to adapt global strategies to regional contexts.
Offer cross-cultural training to foster mutual understanding.
