For the international environment section, if the company has international operations, how does it run those international operations? Does head office make all the decisions, and the international parts of the company are just treated like branch offices? Or do the international operations have a fair degree of autonomy in running their operations? Are the international operations stand-alone profit centres? Outline the key variables that the company can use to position itself to succeed in the marketplace going forward, and conversely, what are the issues or weaknesses the company
