Change in the Business World, 2006. An examination of the effect of change on business and strategy and its influence on organizational culture. 1,033 words (approx. 4.1 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 36.95 »

Abstract This paper begins with a discussion of change in the business environment and follows with a discussion of organizational culture. Next, the paper discusses both concepts in combination in order to analyze the the statement: "In order to be effective, change strategies must be congruent with the organization culture".
From the Paper "Good leadership and management are therefore necessary to support the organizational culture in its adaptation to change strategies within the company. A project manager should ensure a transition which is conducive to the minimum amount of strain and maximum amount of productivity during the implementation of change strategies. Impact on performance should be minimized while the elements of the performance environment are reviewed. These elements include the requirements, capabilities, resources and rewards inherent in this environment. The new way of working should be supported by these changes, and an ability and willingness to work within the new culture should be cultivated (Langdon & Bruce, 1997:32). Without the ability and willingness on the part of the organizational culture to accept change, both the strategic and cultural fit of a company are in danger."

From the Paper "In looking at the past fifty years in society, there seem to be two conflicting tendencies. Many people believe that society has become less moral, with people less inclined to behave in ethical ways. At the same time, there has been a much greater focus on ethical behavior in business, especially during the past two decades. Does this mean that ethics in business is a new concept?
Business ethics has simply changed over the past fifty years. There are a whole range of issues that have come under scrutiny, including whistle blowing, pollution, community responsibility, and sustainability. The approach to business decision-making has also sometimes changed. The intent in this..."

Managing Change in a Global Organization, 2008. A look at the issue of globalization in businesses. 1,743 words (approx. 7.0 pages), 5 sources, APA, $ 56.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines the subject of globalization in the business world. It examines the necessity for it, the opportunities such a decision affords, employee resistance that can occur and the importance of top management involvement.
From the Paper "Because of the rising level of competition, businesses are expanding globally in order to generate additional demand for their products and services. In addition to creating extra opportunities for growth through access to a wider market, global expansion also facilitates access to low cost operations. For example, manufacturing costs in China are the lowest to be found anywhere in the world with advanced infrastructural facilities. As a result, businesses in the West have been moving their operations to China by setting up manufacturing facilities there. Businesses with services offerings or those involved in the development of information technologies are increasingly turning to India for the availability of low-cost manpower in these areas. As a result of these trends, more and more businesses are going global in a variety of ways. Some businesses are expanding simply to the extent of setting up marketing and sales offices globally. Others are setting up manufacturing operations globally. Others are offering franchises. However globalizing operations efficiently and effectively is a highly challenging task in managing change. And this is an ongoing process since after operations have been shaped up to address global issues, the issues of managing change remain in the form of the need for rightsizing emerging periodically in response to the changing business environment. In managing these changes, I would select the evolutionary model for change"

Abstract This paper examines organizations that have developed a variety of problem solving methods that appeal to individual learning styles. The author points out that many of these companies have instituted change programs that embrace employee teaching and training in issues of self-discovery, learning and leadership. The author believes that these "revolutionary advances" have the power to move the American workforce into uncharted territories of adventure and exploration.
From the Paper "Today?s business leader is creating alternatives and generating ideas by using whole-brain thinking techniques brought about by pulling together members with varying brain quadrant preferences to develop powerfully effective think tanks. I find it absolutely fascinating that many of these work groups have tapped into the power of Ned Herrmann?s quadrant concept without even realizing it. Businesses all over the world have recognized that workers are more effective when their creative and technical talents are pooled together and when they are given freedom and liberty in their various thinking and learning styles. They know that the key to competitive advantage is to develop a thriving culture in which employees feel that they are part of a community propelled by correct principles and a meaningful purpose and where power and function are distributed to all levels of the organization."

Business-to-Business Promotion Management, 2005. This paper examines the management of business-to-business (B2B) promotions by reducing transactional costs and associated supply chain management requirements. 1,715 words (approx. 6.9 pages), 7 sources, APA, $ 55.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains that business-to-business (B2B) enterprises were characterized by business owners seeking more efficient methods of buying and selling their products and services to other similarly situated companies. Today, B2B companies recognize the constraints inherent in these approaches and are refining their supply chain management practices. The author points out that when products have both low demand and supply uncertainties, the basis of competition is efficiency. There are two dimensions of efficiency: Cost and the coordination of information. The paper relates that the ability to provide predictable demand patterns and a stable supply process will allow companies to improve their supply chain efficiencies so that the cost of providing the product to the customers is the lowest possible.

From the Paper "As a result, supply chain management has emerged as one of the major areas for companies to gain a competitive edge. The supply chain refers to the linked set of resources and processes that begins with the sourcing of raw material and extends through the delivery of end items to the final customer. The supply chain includes vendors, manufacturing facilities, logistics providers, internal distribution centers, distributors, wholesalers and all other entities that lead up to final customer acceptance; however, the extended supply chain for a given company may also include secondary vendors to their immediate vendors, and the customers of their immediate customers."

Change Management, 2003. This paper discusses the importance of effectively managing the ever-changing business environment. 1,450 words (approx. 5.8 pages), 9 sources, MLA, $ 48.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper explains that many aspects of change management must be considered: Resistance to change by employees, staff stress over change, the ?calm waters? approach that may not be suitable, the role of the organization?s culture, and the knowledge that the past is not always a good indication of future performance. The author stresses that change agents should conduct a force-field analysis, a method that analyzes two sets of forces, driving and resisting change, because an organization should concentrate more on reducing the resisting forces than increasing the driving forces. The paper relates that signs of stress that change agents and managers need to be able to identify in order to effectively reduce stress can be broken into three categories: Physiological, psychological, and behavioral.
From the Paper "There are several ways change agents can overcome this natural resistance to change. Firstly, employees should be able to participate in the change program [Dover, 2003]. Employees feel more empowered and thus committed to implementing the change successfully. On the other hand, if employees are not skilled enough to participate in the change program then they should not be allowed to help. This means finding other ways to instill a commitment to the change in the employees. It is also critical to communicate the vision to employees clearly. This will help reduce any uncertainty and ambiguity."

Business and Climate Change, 2004. Discussion of the impact that climate change has on industries and business. 932 words (approx. 3.7 pages), 3 sources, APA, $ 33.95 »
Click here to show/hide summary
Abstract This paper examines the problem of climate change brought about by the operation of major global industries. The paper looks at the threats imposed by climate change and the opportunities presented by action on climate change. Also discussed are the different business strategies applied by American and European firms in response to climate change.
From the Paper "Climate change has become a major issue on the forefront of economic and political discussions. The cause of climate has been indicated as a build-up of greenhouse gases (mostly CO2) in the atmosphere as a result of emissions mostly from industry. The evidence presented in support of global warming has been robust but not completely conclusive (Levy & Kelley, 1997). The mass sum of greenhouse gas emissions produced by all nations of the world could yield potentially devastating ecological effects (Levy & Kelley, 1997). However, businesses and industry that rely on energy produced by fossil-fuels are concerned that early action on global warming in the absence of conclusive evidence could lead to terrible economic losses. On the other side, inaction could also prove disastrous, since global warming could potentially lead to floods, droughts, rising ocean levels, and disruptions in the global food supply. Moreover, there are both threats and opportunities that are presented to industries due to climate change."
