Bartlett and Ghoshal argue that the role of a country manager in a global business is to sense local threats/opportunities and build local resources. This involves being able to adapt to local market conditions, establish relationships with local stakeholders, and build a strong local team. This is essential for a company to succeed in a global marketplace. While other tasks like developing new products and coordinating transactions across borders may also be important for a country manager, the ability to sense local threats/opportunities and build local resources is considered the most crucial for driving global success.
