Mr Sang Works for an Electronics Manufacturer with Headquarters in Taiwan

question 14

True/False

Mr. Sang works for an electronics manufacturer with headquarters in Taiwan. After working for the company for five years in Taiwan, he has been sent to work in the U.S. subsidiary operation in San Francisco, where he reports to the American general manager for the subsidiary, Tom Johnson. To be effective, the process for appraising Mr. Sang's performance should not include the input of Mr. Johnson, due to possible cross-cultural misunderstanding, but should rely on the evaluations made by Taiwanese managers back at company headquarters.
