In January 2009, Wal-Mart acquired a controlling interest in Chile's leading food retailer. Since then, Wal-Mart has opened the first environmentally friendly supermarket in Chile that uses energy efficient technology throughout the store. Wal-Mart is planning to open additional stores in Chile over the next five years. Wal-Mart's top executives are considering the idea of transferring U.S. managers to Chile to oversee the construction and establishment of the new stores.

Which of the following, if true, supports the assertion that Wal-Mart is an ethnocentrically oriented corporation?
A) Wal-Mart aims to maintain a unified organizational culture by filling foreign management positions with Americans.
B) Wal-Mart rarely experiences cultural misunderstandings because of its tendency to hire locals to fill management positions.
C) Wal-Mart usually succeeds on an international level because the firm actively works to support local charities.
D) Adaptability screening eliminates problems associated with transferring Wal-Mart managers and their families abroad.
