Problems In One Country Are Not Seen As Sufficiently Important In Headquarters

Each location has individual problems and situations. Management at headquarters may not want to hear about these things. They rely on the managers put in place in the location to deal with the situations. This was the only way centuries ago when communications were poor. Remote managers and governors were given wide discretion on what to do. The problem is exacerbated by local managers who want to get promoted and so tend to push local problems “under the rug” if they cannot deal with them.
