TNC Worksheet #1

Identifying your TNC

1.  Go to the web, review at least 7 sites listed on the Prof. Matt Sparke's class resources page.  http://faculty.washington.edu/sparke/resources.htm

The purpose of this initial review is to help you select a transnational corporation to write about.  Remember that you will ultimately need to write about how, where, when, and why they went global.  You will not be able to answer all of those questions at first, but it is a good time to check the feasibility of those questions.   List the sites you visited here:
