Answer:
b. Unlike global consistency, a company following a policy of local adaptation modifies its standard operating procedures to adapt to differences in foreign customers, governments, and regulatory agencies.
Explanation:
When a company wants to operate in different locations globally they can adopt 2 methods of operation.
The global consistency approach aims to maintain a uniform operational procedure across all countries where a company does business.
Local adaptation is when the company modifies it's standard operating procedures to fit local preferences, government policy, regulations, and politics.
Local adaptation tends to be more complex be side each location has its way of operating so there is no uniformity across global locations.
