, Read the case study and answer the following questions. Based in South
Africa, Afri-Solar is a firm that produces and installs solar energy systems.
The relevance of renewable energy has increased as the globe shifts away
from the production of energy based on fossil fuels. With a spectacular ascent
in just over a decade, solar energy has emerged as the renewable energy
source that performs the best. From 0.1% in 2010 to 3.7% in 2021, solar
energy's generation share in the power sector has increased. It currently
generates energy at the greatest growth rate and makes up a sizeable portion
of newly installed renewable power capacity. The solar technology market is
expanding and is expected to do so in the future. Afri-Solar management
decided to step into the international market and set up offices in Pakistan,
Senegal, Nigeria, and Finland. CONFIDENTIAL HRD3702 The expansion of
solar photovoltaics has been the primary driver of this solar market growth.
Although the culture and employment practices of these countries differ from
the South African culture, Afri-Solar management holds a firm belief that their
employees will thrive and dominate the markets in these new operations. Afri-
Solar committed that it would provide its employees with the best training on
offer. 1. Identify and explain training interventions that Afri-Solar’s employees
will need to adapt and perform better in foreign countries. (4) 2. Highlight the
importance of the training budget, and, advises Afri-Solar management on
what aspects should be considered when drawing the training and
development budget. (7)
1. Training Interventions for Afri-Solar's Employees in Foreign Countries:
a. Cultural Sensitivity Training: Given the diverse cultural backgrounds of the new markets,
employees need to understand and respect cultural differences. This training should focus on
communication styles, etiquette, values, and customs prevalent in each country.
b. Language Proficiency: Since language barriers can hinder effective communication and
understanding, language training in the local languages of Pakistan, Senegal, Nigeria, and Finland
would be beneficial. Basic language skills can help employees navigate daily interactions and
business transactions.
c. Cross-Cultural Communication: Effective communication across cultures is crucial for building
relationships and conducting business successfully. Training in cross-cultural communication can
help employees understand how cultural differences impact communication styles, decision-making
processes, and conflict resolution.
