This paper discusses R. Beal's article on environmental scanning and its effect on competitive strategy and organizational performance in small firms. The writer describes the two main hypotheses of the research project, the primary research and subsequent factor analysis in the article and points out some glaring omissions and contradictions. The writer concludes that the findings in the article are too generic to be useful for small manufacturers, and that the contradictions should be smoothed out in order to present a cohesive article.

Summary

From the Paper
"Where Beal fails to bring greater value into this specific area of research however is in not delving deeper into which specific processes are those that are the most targeted for best manufacturing process definition and improvement. Critically analyzing this specific and highly significant result of the research, one could argue that the best manufacturing processes across industries vary significantly by size of manufacturer and that even in the sampling frame of this research there is wide variation."

Sony PSP Pricing, 2008.
A discussion on the strategy and tactics of pricing for Sony's Playstation 3 (PSP3).

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
The paper discusses Sony's initial pricing strategies, which looked to capitalize on the relatively high level of price elasticity that existed in the high end of the gaming market. The paper notes that Sony launched the PSP3 using price to ascertain the relative shape of the demand curves in each of the geographies in which they launched the PSP3. The paper discusses Sony's product and pricing advantage, premium market positioning and strategic planning. The paper concludes that Sony's pricing strategy shows that the company is very aware of how significantly their product life cycles are maturing and the difficulty experienced in keeping a uniform pricing strategy globally. Instead, the company has had to take a much regionalized approach to pricing in order to attain its objectives.

Introduction
Analysis of Sony's Pricing Strategies
Conclusion

From the Paper
"Sony's initial pricing, while above the closest competitors by $50, was primarily used as a means for communicating premium market positioning over purely being a price penetration strategy. Sony's initial launch of the PSP3 was aimed at the adult gamers who would see the initial price point as an indicator of the devices' superior functionality and value. Making a Blu-Ray/DVD/CD drive standard across all models was a deliberate product strategy to attract adult gamers who also are high-definition video enthusiasts. Sony's pricing strategy then was to use the combination of enhanced functionality (Blu-Ray) in conjunction with a higher-than-average price for this segment of products to attempt to create an entirely new market. Whether this strategy constituted ones that is a "blue ocean" or "red ocean" strategy as defined in the book, Blue Ocean Strategies and discussed in by Columbus, the fact is that Sony was successful in achieving its market positioning. Adults purchased the PSP3 specifically for its high resolution gaming capability, in addition to Blu-Ray functionality as well."

From the Paper
"Porsche faces some difficulty in performing the same feat in Zuffenhausen for two reasons: (1) it is still a niche manufacturer, with fewer than 100,000 total units (even counting production in Leipzig and Bratislava), and (2) the Zuffenhausen plant is difficult to expand, and to automate further.While Porsche's short-term strategies of sharing manufacturing facilities has helped, it may be due for a consolidation in the future. At present, final assembly takes place in four places (including Valmet in Finland for Boxsters). With the addition of a fifth line and concomitant increases in expected production, Porsche may want to consider a consolidation at a "Greenfield" plant, in which it can consolidate some of its assembly."

From the Paper
"The keys to motivation are a fundamental assumption that employees want to do well, and receive positive feedback that enhances their feelings of self-worth. Part-time employees are particularly difficult to motivate. Given the findings of the Bernhardt study, it makes sense to give part-time and service employees the opportunity to cross-train, and to set their own objectives. In that way, the relatively small full-time staff of 45 employees can fill in for absent employees, and relieve some of the overwork complaints that have been generated. "

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
In this article, the writer notes that today, the excellence of companies is not rated purely on their competitive nature and profits made. In fact, their social responsibilities, contributions and attitudes are also considered a huge part of their image and popularity. The writer discusses that major industries, entrepreneurs and managers have the additional responsibility to oblige the needs and rights of their workers, their customers, the societies and communities they serve as well as the overall atmosphere. In this paper, the writer studies the corporate responsibility of Gap enterprises in order to understand the manner in which multi-national corporations are currently defining and managing their responsibilities with regards to human and environment right as well as the labor or workforce demands and needs. The writer concludes that Gap Inc. is one of the leading enterprises in the world that realizes its social responsibility and acts according to its obligation to the community by engaging and initiating ventures that can help in the enhancement of working environments, employee expansion, environmental awareness, efficient and satisfying labor supply chains, etc.

From the Paper
"The GAP enterprises realize their responsibility and accountability to the community and also realize that their success lies in the networking that they are able to do with the community they are in and the way that the community responds to them. Hence, they have made sure that they correctly assess and evaluate all their strategies and how they affect their own commerce and the environment of the community both in the short and the long term. The GAP enterprise does well in adapting their objectives in accordance with the community i.e. in developed markets they target the strong-minded and independent youngsters while in the developing markets they target the women to help them break out of the contemporary cycle and enhance their work capacities.
"With the increase in the social responsibility of the corporations and business entities, the GAP enterprises like many other corporations now have to work hand in hand with the government if they want to make the community feel like they can trust the industry."

Illegal Downloads, 2008.
A review of the problem of illegal downloads and the effect it has on the recording industry.
1,279 words (approx. 5.1 pages), 3 sources, APA, $ 43.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
The paper introduces and analyzes the topic of ethics in American business. Specifically, the paper discusses who should be punished for downloading illegal music. The paper argues against the practice and contends that downloading music online is illegal unless one pays for the music. The paper also contends that "down loaders" know the act is illegal, and choose to do it anyway, making it both legally and ethically wrong. The paper further contends that illegal downloads harm record companies and recording artists and violate the intellectual property rights of the individuals who created the song. The paper concludes that stealing music is like stealing someone's special creation, it is simply wrong, ethically, morally, and legally.

From the Paper
"In addition, stealing music is a known crime, and music companies have been filing suit against people for many years, making it common knowledge that downloading music is a crime. The Minnesota trial was the first lawsuit to make it all the way to trial, however. Downloaders paying thousands of dollars in fines to recording companies have settled all the other suits. In one case, recording companies sued the parents of two under-18-year-olds, and the parents eventually settled with the record company. In this case, since the children were not of legal age, the companies went for the people who owned the computers. However, in most normal cases, these would not be the people responsible, because anyone who owns a computer knows that you cannot control family members and friends 24 hours a day, 7 days a week when they are on the computer."

Abstract
This paper compares and contrasts four leadership models and determines the similarities and differences between them. Thus each model might address the contemporary leadership issues and challenges in the workforce. The paper states that in this study, the models and theories are used synonymously. The paper compares and contrasts the following four leadership models: (1) transactional; (2) transformational; (3) path-goal theory; and (4) action-centered leadership.

Outline:
Transformational Leadership
Transactional Leadership
Path-Goal Theory Of Leadership
Action-Centered Leadership
Summary And Conclusion

From the Paper
"There are three pillars, which the ethics of transformational leadership rest upon: (1) The moral character of the leader; (2) The ethical values embedded in the leader's vision, articulation, and program which followers either embrace or reject; and (3) The morality of the processes of social ethical choice and action that leaders and followers engage in and collectively pursue. Transformational leadership has been found to be effective in many settings including schools, businesses, and even in leading behavioral changes among those that have failed to respond to other styles of leadership. This type of leadership involves inspiration of the followers to reach beyond their present set of abilities in gaining new skills and reaching previously unattainable goals."

From the Paper
"While trait-based theory and the cited taxonomy of sources of power only partially define a leader's ability to gain consensus and deliver exceptional results, the aspects of transformational leadership and emotional intelligence leadership theories provide additional insights into how leaders can attain the collaboration of collective performance, skills, knowledge and decision making that form the foundation of this critical examination. House & Shamir (1993, pgs, 82 - 87) and Yukl (1999, pgs. 110 - 113) both define transformational leadership as a critical skill set for leaders to attain emotional intelligence (EI) as a transformational strategy for leaders to create a more collaborative set of team processes to ensure collective performance is achieved."

"The specialized literature points out how the massive developments in Information Technology have changed all business features. One country that seems not to subscribe to this global trend is Nigeria. When most countries of the world have placed numerous advertisements and descriptions of their countries on the Internet, Nigeria remains difficult to google. In this order of ideas, several specialists emphasize on the need for Nigeria to develop a touristy strategy and place it online. Once the country has done this, the virtual access to the region will be eased and the online presentation of the Nigerian attractions will determine more and more foreigners to spend their vacations in the heart of African culture."

Abstract
This paper discusses and defines secondary and primary research use in research in motion (RIM), and their importance in marketing research and planning strategies. The writer explains that secondary research is highly effective with time constraints, cost constraints, and the needs for unbiased measures of performance to benchmark the performance of one company against another. Primary research, which includes the need for validating branding, market positioning, and pricing and quality perceptions, is critical for minimizing the risk of launching a new store concept, such as the bakery in Vancouver which is the object of this paper's case study. The writer concludes that the use of demographic data is essential for finding potential locations for the proposed store since there are significant opportunities for ethnically-oriented businesses in Vancouver. This paper includes figures.

From the Paper
"In the development of a new business, it is critical to understand the customers' preferences, needs, wants, in addition to their perception of the proposed new business and its potential value to them as consumers. In short, primary research is critical for finding out just what is the most important to new prospects for a new business that defies any previous traditional categories. In the development of a business plan and the eventual launch of a bakery and party shop in Vancouver, British Columbia, the proposed bakery and store needs to create its own highly unique, highly differentiated position in the local marketplace."

From the Paper
"Global manufacturers are often caught in the dilemma of on the one hand needing to pursue a continual low-price strategy to attain profitability, yet on the other being called upon to increase their agility to respond quickly and accurately to increasingly unique customer requests. Needing to maintain profitability yet also be agile enough in production processes to meet unique customers' requirements forces many manufacturers into a paradox of how to align their Information technologies (IT) initiatives and programs to support both objectives. Manufacturers are resolving this dilemma through the use of SOA architectures and strategies, relying on Business Process Execution Language (BPEL), Web Services, XML and its many variants, Business Process Management, and Workflow Management (W3C XML Working group, 2004)."

"The Mayo Clinic noted in 1997 a correlation between taking Fen-Phen and a rare form of aortic heart-valve disease. Subsequent publication in the NEJM resulted in Wyeth withdrawing the drug from the market in 1998. In 2000, a US judge approved a class action lawsuit. Wyeth set aside a $14 billion fund to settle the suits, which was later raised to $21 billion in 2005 . The ultimate size of the settlements made it the most expensive recall in pharmaceutical history; the final settlement nevertheless removed a cloud over the organization."

" On the other hand, the protests in Asia impact the international managers in the meaning that they increase the awareness in regard to the problems posed on positioning their products onto a foreign country. International managers will better analyze the cultural features of their destination region and the businesses that are being developed there. In order for these companies to properly function within the new territory, they must not pose a threat to local businesses and they should present the population with products that can not be produced internally."

Abstract
This paper examines how, in Stephen M.R. Covey's book, "Speed of Trust", the author takes the ideas of his father, international best seller Stephen R. Covey, and blazes a revolutionary new path towards productivity and satisfaction. The paper explains that Stephen M.R. Covey's book provides an in-depth look at how trust functions in the every day transactions and relationships of business leaders and public figures and then outlines the type of trust one should expect from the ideal leader according to Covey. The paper concludes with the writer discussing what he found attractive about the management method advocated by Covey.

From the Paper
"For example, in a situation of a corporate merger the issue of trust and leadership versus management becomes complicated. Let's say the original company will usually take a primarily leadership dominated approach to its business organization, allowing its employees to have many freedoms and responsibilities. The merging company, however, has a motivation approach that places more emphasis on management and incentives. In order to ensure that both performance and job satisfaction remain high for all employees in the newly merged corporation, steps will have to be taken to implement both styles of motivation. "

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
The paper discusses emotional intelligence (EI) and how it is considered to be a competitive advantage as far as leadership is concerned. The paper begins by listing the five characteristics that comprise EI and then goes on to discuss how it has become a sine qua non condition for managing people. Next, the paper points out that EI should not be the attribute of leaders only, as it should be promoted among all the members of the work environment. The four steps needed for promoting and implementing EI among the workforce by leaders are then discussed by the paper. The paper concludes that EI has become a vital factor in the activity of leaders and their subordinates as well. Developing EI skills is important for employees, and crucial for leaders.

From the Paper
"For a while now, it is a known fact that EI matters a great deal in the workplace, no matter the nature of one's work. EI is now associated with other major skills that weigh a lot in succeeding in one's field of work. In certain areas, people with high EIQ are considered to be more successful than people with high IQ, but with lower EIQ. Both theoreticians and practitioners agree that "successful organizations in the future will be those that grow their people with outstanding EQ."

Abstract
The paper analyzes the Range Rover's brand equity, it's development, and the brand's success, including its contribution to the car industry. The paper comments that the brand framework structure or scorecard is used as the foundation for the Range Rover brand analysis. The progression of the brand from being primarily sold through farm equipment dealers to being positioned as a suburban workhorse for growing families, to the premium status that the brand is aspiring to today, is evaluated, using the framework Keller (2000) has devised. The paper notes that this framework provides useful insights into the brand's equity, how the brand developed, and the characteristics that lead to the successful development of the brand overall.

From the Paper
"According to this attribute from the scorecard developed by Keller , there is a single, strong message of the brand communicated. On this point, Range Rover struggles as it has a dual message of both being off-road, suburban and also upscale. The dominant two messages of off-road and upscale often lead to the suburban message being lost however. On this attribute, Range Rover is not performing as well as on others as a result."
