EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Fred Westen, CEO of Hathaway Jones, planned to expand business to China. His friend’s daughter Mimi who had grown up in China liked to be a part of this move. He conducted an interview and found that she has enough capability to lead a flagship store in China. But, vice president of HR department in his firm found a news saying that Mimi had led a nonviolent protest group that protest against China. This made rethink about hiring Mimi for the China project.
He should decide future course of action in the issue of hiring Mimi and successfully implementing the project of Hathaway Jones in China. Different alternative solution for this situation is evaluated on the basis of five criteria. I recommended that Fred must hire Mimi and post her in different place other than China and find a new person with suitable qualities for leading the flagship store in Nanjing road, China. An effective action plan that
Fred should be taken for implementing this solution is given in the last.
