The purpose of this qualitative exploratory study was to explore and determine what challenges are faced by a U.S.-based business opening an office in Australia using the indigenous workforce. The problem identified was that local-country-national leaders are called upon to establish foreign offices using local employees; however, these local-country-national leaders are uncertain what skills are needed to operate the foreign office because the skills required by foreign office managers when hiring local-country-national employees have not been established. The central research question asked what the knowledge, skills, and abilities that foreign office managers need to establish a successful U.S.-based foreign office in Australia. The exploratory qualitative study used semi-structured interviews to gain information from 10 participants who had experience in Australia from several companies with a history of hiring local-country-national employees. Data were analyzed by (a) compiling the data from the interviews, (b) organizing the data by the interviewee, (c) coding of the data, (d) identifying themes, and (e) establishing data relationships that are expressed in the key findings. The key finding suggests that, in order to be successful there is a process that can be followed that consist of developing a communications plan that is aimed at both internal and external customers and stakeholders; hiring local employees to better develop trust and an understanding of the business market and landscape; and to work with the local employees to develop ethical and business processes and procedures consistent with both the parent company and local laws.
