Use the picture below to describe the concrete effects of globalization​
klemol [59]

Explanation:

The image below shows some effects of globalization. In the last image we see a boat full of people, symbolizing the era of great sailing, whose aim was to discover new commercial routes beyond its territory. Therefore, through this image we can see that man has always been eager to explore new places and expand his business in search of profitability, this is what happens in the phenomenon of globalization.

Globalization is a phenomenon that has impacted human interactions and has occurred due to new technologies, ease of movement and communication, which has enabled man to seek business beyond his country.

We can also see in other images overpopulated cities, polluting factories and work teams, which demonstrates how globalization has strengthened industrialization, the search for people for job opportunities in major world metropolises and how there is a multicultural environment in organizations, where it is necessary team creativity and innovation so that the company is well positioned and stands out in this globalized scenario where there is a lot of competitiveness.
