26. A Day in the Life of the Globalization Manager at McDonald's Corporation By Rebecca Ray, Global Business Editor, LISA Globalization Insider McDonald’s Corporation, the company that Ray Kroc built, has been selling hamburgers outside of the U.S. for decades. It certainly qualifies as one of the top global brands in today’s marketing vernacular, operating in 119 countries and deriving a significant portion of its revenues from outside of the U.S. Each country implements the core McDonald’s menu to which in-country management is free to add localized menu items, e.g., the "Croque McDo" in France, the "Chicken Maharaja Mac" in India and salads in many parts of the world. International in scope, its Hamburger University is designed to deliver training programs targeting different management levels, ranging from restaurant managers to department heads and executives. In addition to the home office campus based in Oak Brook, Illinois in the U.S., there are two in Europe (London and Munich) and one each in Tokyo, Sao Paulo, Hong Kong and Sydney. McDonald’s training programs are delivered in up to 40 languages, with the primary languages being Chinese (Simplified and Traditional), English (both International/Commonwealth and U.S.), French, German, Italian, Japanese, Portuguese and Spanish for the top markets. The training materials consist of two elements: core content which applies globally for maintaining consistent food quality and services worldwide, and locale-specific content based on local menu items, food safety regulations and labor practices, etc. Retrieved on September 27, 2011, from: http://www.enlaso.com/Language_Tech_Center/Articles/Globalization_Manager _Day.aspx http://www.enlaso.com/Language_Tech_Center/Articles/Globalization_Manager _Day.aspx
