From the Paper
"Getting both customers and employees to change how they are completing the tasks is going to be the greatest challenge of launching the Web-based customer management system. Ensuring the highest levels of responsiveness to customers, providing the convenience of being able to develop fitness plans and schedule training sessions, and for employees, to collaborate with both customers and other employees needs to be the most critical goals of the systems development and launch. In fact the use of web-based applications to increase collaboration is a best practice of web-based applications (Klein, Russ , 2006). Change management, which is the study of the need for people to change when new processes and systems are put into place, is essential for the Web-based customer management system to be a success. The technological aspects of the systems development plan are important yet the change of how customers complete their fitness programs and how employees collaborate with each other."

From the Paper
"The literature on the subject of fitness centers and the way health clubs are operated as a business reflect much of the same concerns noted in Chapter One, notably that these institutions are faced with growing competition from government-run institutions associated with hospitals and similar facilities. Some companies have also instituted their own fitness programs and have built fitness centers in their factories and business complexes. Such facilities compete with fitness centers that are private businesses, often in an unfair manner, especially when the health facility is government-run."

From the Paper
"Day spas and resort spas are two of the fastest growing service industries in the country and it is predicted this industry will continue to grow. In 1974, there were approximately 74 spas in the United States. In 1999, there were over 1000. Massage therapy generates 65-70% of a spa?s revenue, so as the spa industry grows, so does the demand for massage therapists. The collaboration that began the business ?Heavenly Hands? began when a local massage therapist with an established personal, fitness and medical clientele was referred me to the owner of the beauty salon in the Hilton who had received requests from the hotel management and guests for massage services. With the new business from the Hilton combined and her existing clientele, the massage therapist had more clients than she could possibly handle, and it became obvious that both services could combine in one location and increase their revenues and ability to service an increasing customer base by using qualified therapists under independent contractor agreements to handle the extra work."

From the Paper
"Introduction
Organizations with decentralized operations typically divide those operations into cost and profit centers. This delineation, which is a management and strategic decision, has long-term ramifications for the success of the organization, and helps define (and is defined by) the culture which exists in the company at the time the decision is made. Companies which have operated with cost centers in the past may determine that changing some or all of those cost centers to profit centers may be more beneficial to the organization in the long-run. This research examines the considerations which must be taken into account when making this determination, and evaluates the effect that such a change might have on the organization as a whole.

Conclusion
From the Paper
"The medical costs of the Rocky Mountain employees who have used the Fitness center in the past two years have diminished. One may argue that there is no direct connection between the two realties, but the situation is much too obvious to be considered a mere coincidence. It is safe to say that the medical expenses that the company needs to take care of in case our employees need them, are far bigger than the costs required by the maintenance of the existing Fitness Center. Numbers showed that the more the employees used the fitness center, the lesser were the expenses that the company had to make in order to keep them healthy. The 65% of the employees who never used the Fitness center cost the company a total of 81.500 dollars, while the ones who made medium and frequent use of the center cost the company just 21, 100 dollars. It must be stated that the frequency of going to the Fitness Center appears to be directly correlated to the increasing or decreasing of the medical expenses. Numbers have shown that the higher the frequency of use was, the smaller the medical expenses became. "
