Which of the following is not an international risk surrounding organizational efforts?

  1. Customs

  2. Laws

  3. Languages

  4. Production values

The correct answer is: Production values

The choice identifying "Production values" as not being an international risk surrounding organizational efforts is correct. In an international context, production values typically refer to the standards and practices associated with the creation of goods or services, which may include equipment, technology, and internal processes. While production values can be influenced by international factors, they are generally intrinsic to the organization's operations and are not specifically categorized as a risk arising from international contexts. On the other hand, customs, laws, and languages are all significant international risks that organizations must navigate when operating across borders. Customs involve trade regulations and tariffs that can affect the flow of goods and services. Laws pertain to the legal frameworks that differ from one country to another, impacting compliance and operational practices. Languages can create communication barriers that lead to misunderstandings and inefficiencies in international operations, making it crucial for organizations to proactively address these risks when engaging in global endeavors.
