government worldwide. This involves the goods, services and the economic resources of capital,
technology and data. Multinational companies which are operate in various countries. They are
managing the protection establishment or deliver their services in two companies (Potrafke,
2015). That is conducting a significant proportion of their operations in other countries. That are
influences the other country economy and also to entire environment. By that have some positive
and negative impact on developing countries. Multinational companies are help to reducing
poverty, driving economic growth, creating job are utilize local people, raise employment and its
standard. That is impact positive and negative impact in the economic. Multinational companies

 Cost: It is very important part of the research that assists to accomplish desired level of
results in the business. With this regard, that had been used to gain aim and objectives.
With that had to complete different activities, it can be stated that cost is most important
consideration which implement to gain more profitability (Palinkas and et.al., 2015). for
the compete the research here is required some stationary like pencil, pen etc that cost is
£20. transportation expense are £60, internet expense £80.
 Scope: this is element of the project management plan is refers the project effectiveness
and importance and various opportunities for achieve goals and objectives. That is helps
to know and get study includes in the overall management in terms of managing the
working target performance. It is the also defines the importance of goals which helps to
determine the importance of the globalization impact on the host business environment.

of work breakdown structure that defines the each and every activity that have to be
performed during the whole research. It also must define the project task in order to
develop the new managing developing source and outcomes to be performed the best
outcome results. Present research will be taking time of 8 weeks.
 Communication: it is very important part of the research and researcher have to maintain
this at the time of talking with other person. Effective communication tool team-members

Communication process can help this present study to get their outcomes sooner in an
efficient manner (Thuries, 2016). effective communication is help to influences the
stakeholders. Communicate with stakeholder in very pilot manner and try to influences.
 Quality: Quality is most concerning part in the project which plays role to define
outcomes and results. Without maintain quality and proper performance results outcomes
are not well as per the defined goals. In the case of taking wrong decision making process
also might affect the company performance and target goals in order to define the project
goals. Like, the quality of information must be very much required in the research
process.
 Resources: Resources is the important aspects of the research it is helps to accomplish
the overall research objectives and aims of the results. This present research will be using
human resource, capital resource, research resources and techniques.

in order to maintain and implement the responsibility there are several advantages take
place in the research and it also assist the focus on meeting the goals and objectives and it is
basis on the quantitative and qualitative approaches of research methods, it can selected the
desired levels where results can be accomplish the workplace with the aims and objectives.
Research philosophy:-
It can be defined as the information about the data which has been gathered, analyses and
use to conduct the research for effective results at workplace. It also encompasses the variety of
philosophy for transform the things which has been believed into so many different things, there
are two types of philosophies which has been used for assist to understand the reality of together
knowledge and also not create any impact on the study. From collection of the small sample it
conducts depth study for investing the qualitative research (Mackey, and Gass, 2015.).
Research design:-
It is a type of arrangement of collections and conditions where there are several aspects
of research design like descriptive, correlative and case study. From above elements researcher
will use descriptive research design which has been assist for describing the considerations for
gaining more desired level of the results. Descriptive method of the research design helps to
attain the aims and objectives through effective research designs.
Research strategy:-
There are 2 types of research strategy such as qualitative and quantitative because in
these steps the plan of the actions which has been considers the directions of thoughts and
efforts. It also enables to conduct the systematic and appropriate research schedule for producing
the quality results and also the detailing reports. This research will create qualitative strategy

Data collection:-
There are 2 types of data collection which has been very useful for conducting the
research such as primary and secondary data collection. Both the data collection is helpful for
measuring the significant outcomes and also focuses on the accomplishing the aims and
objectives with the help of both the data. both the data collection is assist for focusing on the
gaining of the aims and objectives in desired manner. There are 2 types of data collection which
are as follows:-
 Primary data:-All the primary data is collected by the researcher and investigator
himself for collecting the accurate information and it is basis on the research for
collecting the data is obtained. The data which is collected by the researcher itself and
also the collection of data is original. It is real time data because all the data s gathered by
the researcher and also researcher involve in all the procedure. All the data is collected
through the surveys, observations of the researcher and also from all the experiments,
questioner, conducting personnel interviews etc. it is much more expensive because of
collecting all the information by their own. It takes so much time and it is always depend
on the needs of the researcher. In this all the fresh and relevant information has been
collected by the researcher from conducting the questionnaire and surveys (Flick, 2015).
 Secondary data:-Secondary data term refers to the data which is collected by someone
else and all the collected information is given to the researcher is not right because it is
based on the observation and analyses of others. It is easy and quick to collect
information and data because it is depend on the past information and analyses. All the
data is collected from the publications of government, books and journals, websites and

Sampling:-
It is a small group of selected representative where all the works is done on the basis and
obtain for the accurate objectives and reliable and right information with minimum cost. It also
includes the cost and set the limits for the accuracy of all the estimates. It also did inte4nsive and
exhaustive study with such possible outcomes like materials, money and cost. There are two
types of method which has been exists for considering the sampling such as the non-probability
and probability. Present stud will chose the Probability sampling in which selects the random
sampling strategy which has been used in which data is collected from different collection and
information. It select individuals and data randomly which has been selected from everywhere in
the company on the other hand the non-probabilistic sample methods does not know the
probability which has been selected in convince or voluntary response (Alvesson, M. and
Sköldberg, 2017.).
