II. Case study : Read the following case study and answer the questions:
E-SoftSys stays connected around the globe
It’s tough enough to schedule meetings and coordinate team efforts when your partners
work across the hall, imagine what it’s like when they work on the other side of the planet.
The potential for misunderstandings, missed assignments and mistrust could easily derail
any project. And these are just some of the obstacles facing Kat Shenoy, president and CEO
of E-SoftSys. His company employs offshore teams of engineers in China, India, Russia and
elsewhere to develop software for other companies.
When potential customers think about using E-SoftSys for offshore software development,
most need reassurance that the firm can successfully manage and monitor its far-flung team.
As one customer asks: “How will it operate from so far away? Will we be able to
communicate effectively? To address their concerns and ensure effective teamwork, Shenoy
offers customers a mix of human interaction and electronic collaboration (such as e-mail,
instant messaging, and NetMeeting online software).
Keeping the project on track requires plenty of communication with the customer and within
the team. Team members in the United States and other countries rely on frequent, informal
communication to avoid misunderstanding each other, missing assignments, and forcing the
project off schedule. The project manager uses regular, formal communication with the
customer –typically, through weekly status reports – to build trust and provide reassurance
that the international team is making progress toward timely completion of the software.
However, technology can’t address all the communication challenges. E-SoftSys teams
often pull together people from diverse cultural backgrounds with different language
abilities, and the company has found that face-to-face communication is critical when these
teams are forming. For instance, during the early stages of most projects, a U.S.-based
project manager travels to E-SoftSys office in Bangalore, India, to collaborate with the
Indian staff in designing the software and planning the work. By working side by side, even
temporarily, these intercontinental colleagues establish a rapport that bridges time and space
when the U.S. personnel return home.
QUESTIONS
1. How might a lack of trust between U.S. and international team members threaten
E-SoftSys ’s ability to meet customer needs? (reply in minimum 100 words)
2. Why wouldn’t the company introduce teams via instant messaging rather than
through expensive, time-consuming in-person meetings? (reply in minimum 100
words)

III. Summarize a two-page long economic article (attach the article to the portfolio) in
minimum 200 words or make the summary of your bachelor dissertation (graduation
paper), length at your choice.
