Bussiness management

Previous studies have estimated the failure rate of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) implementations to be between 40 to 60%. This high failure rate also extends to ERP adoption by Small to Medium-sized Enterprises (SMEs) in developing countries. The failure rate is concerning since SMEs contribute to the development of many nations. It is known that the quality of a business case has a profound effect on the outcome of an investment. Hence, stronger business cases would increase the success of IT implementations. Yet, there is a lack of research or guidance for SME on preparing business cases. As a first step in addressing this concern, this study aimed to integrate various business case elements from the academic literature, distilling a set of considerations which SMEs adopting ERP systems can use to develop realistic business cases. The study uses a general inductive approach to analyse the academic literature as a secondary data source. The review looks at the broad area of IT business cases reviewing in more detail ERP business cases at one side of the spectrum and SME IT business cases on the other extreme. The final result is a description and a summary of categorised business case considerations for SMEs adopting an ERP system. The practical contribution of the paper is that SMEs adopting ERP systems may use the proposed framework to build realistic business cases, thereby increasing their chances of implementing ERP systems successfully. Secondly, the study lays a foundation for further research on business case considerations for SMEs adopting ERP systems and the subsequent confirmation of the proposed framework to support the development of better business cases.

Xymedix, Inc. is a supplier of in-vitro medical testing located in California. The company’s objective is to provide high-quality medical testing in the United States and worldwide. In February 2020, Xymedix’s s management faced challenges from the COVID-19 pandemic, including customers shifting demand, lack of raw material, changing laws and regulations, and new competitors. To solve Xymedix’s s lack of operational performance and market position loss, this comprehensive paper is designed to conduct a change management process based on Porter’s competitive theoretical framework. I performed various analyses to examine the company status quo, identify the issue, recognize the need for change, design, planning for a change, implement the change, and evaluate the change to resolve its problem in the organizational change framework. This comprehensive paper describes how I led a change in business operations using the SWOT analysis, Porter's Competitive advantage, the SPELIT power matrix, McKinsey 7-S, and eight-step Kotter accelerators change models. I also used the balanced scorecard model to evaluate the change process. This paper provides practitioners and researchers with Porter’s theory’s implications based on the corporate change models. This document summarizes the overall process and includes thoughts on the importance of theoretical foundations and models for complex change initiatives.

In the education sector, educational institution is required to increase its quality in meeting student satisfaction in order to realize educated human beings who have high qualified life skill. Control system is one of the weaknesses in educational institutions in Indonesia which causes the decrease in student satisfaction with service quality.

Estudiante: Andrés David Gutiérrez-26 años CASO 1 CASO OXYLANE-DECATHLON "la capacidad general de adaptación de la empresa que le permite afrontar los cambios necesarios en orden a mantener o mejorar su posición competitiva" Albizu ¿Cuáles son los principales motivos que han conducido a Decathlon a la adopción de un modelo de gestión descentralizada? Desde tu punto de vista, menciona las ventajas e inconvenientes de este tipo de gestión. La primera cosa que ves al entrar a cualquier Decathlon de España es la variedad de productos de todos los deportes que hay, todo los productos están organizados estratégicamente, desde los calcetines de tennis hasta las mallas de ballet. La descentralización por la que opta esta empresa es la adecuada y necesaria para manejar tanta variedad de productos, si se quiere que una persona encuentre todo lo necesario para practicar cualquier deporte hay que tener en cuenta los detalles más básicos, y que a lo mejor son insignificantes para el vendedor, pero muy importantes para un deportista. Esto no sería posible si no existiera descentralización, se necesita una delegación de poder para no dejar por fuera todos los detalles, los cuales son indispensables para que Decathlon. Como ya he mencionado anteriormente, no hay sitio más completo para encontrar cualquier producto deportivo, hasta la más pequeña herramienta deportiva se consigue, para esto se necesita gente competente que esté a cargo de cada sección para poder satisfacer a los clientes más exigentes, es decir, Decathlon prestara un servicio al cliente casi personalizado con expertos en cada sección. Una sola persona a cargo de todos los productos, de todas las secciones y deportes de todos los países sería un caos, en este tipo de empresas donde los detalles son tan importantes para ser referentes en el mercado deportivo, la descentralización es el mejor camino. Esta sería una ventaja de este tipo de organización. Una desventaja puede ser, el hecho de que es necesario más personal y a la vez este personal manipula más la mercancía. El hecho de que no exista una centralización, también conlleva a que no haya un orden en la contabilidad, en el inventario puede llegar a ver una duplicidad en los productos debido a que hay varios delegados, pero esto sería un mal menor, teniendo en cuenta, las ventajas que se tienen al descentralizar.

U ovom seminarskom radu opisan je benchmarking kao jedna od mogućih metoda za primjenu što uspješnijeg poslovanja. Kroz rad se može vidjeti gdje se prvi put javlja i razvija kroz povijest i dati njegovu definiciju, a zatim ćemo vidjeti gdje se primjenjuje te kakve vrste benchmarkinga mogu organizacije koristiti. Nakon upoznavanja s vrstama benchmarkinga, rad se osvrće na sam proces benchmarkinga koji se sastoji od 5 faza kroz koje prolazi svaka organizacija koja se odluči na benchmarking. U svakoj fazi benchmarkinga može se vidjeti što se tamo događa i koji su postupci potrebni za njegovo provođenje. Kako bi se metoda benchmarkinga što bolje razumjela, u radu je dani primjer njegove primjene na poduzeću Oktal Pharme gdje se može vidjeti upotreba benchmakinga u praksi kroz sve njegove faze.

Work is an integral part of our everyday life. On an average we spend around twelve hours daily in the work place, that is one third of our entire life; it does influence the overall quality of our life. It should yield job satisfaction, give peace of mind, a fulfilment of having done a task, as it is expected, without any flaw and having spent the time fruitfully, constructively and purposefully. A happy and a healthy employee will give better turnover, make good decisions and positively contribute to the organizational goal. The work-life balance must be maintained effectively to ensure that all employees are running at their peak potential and free from stress and strain. An assured good quality of work life will not only attract young and new talent but also retain the existing experienced talent. Quality of Work Life in an organization is essential for the smooth running and success of its employees.

Una de las lecturas destacadas de mi verano fue "Las 12 leyes de la negociación" deAlfred Font Barrot, profesor de negociación en el departamento de derecho de la Universitat Pompeu Fabra de Barcelona. Me pareció un libro realmente interesante por su claridad, ritmo y enfoque práctico. Siempre me ha gustado el mundo de la negociación y siempre he pensado que la negociación es algo que ocurre constantemente en nuestro día a día. Siempre estamos negociando aunque sea con nuestro lenguaje corporal mientras pedimos una copa.

Zhuge Liang, commonly known by his style, Kongming, was born around the year 180, the son of a
provincial official in the later days of the Han dynasty. At that time, the dynasty was thoroughly
decrepit, nearly four hundred years old and on the verge of collapse. For most of his adult life,
Zhuge Liang was to play a major role in the power struggles and civil wars that followed the demise
of the ancient Han.
Orphaned at an early age, he and his younger brother were taken in by an uncle, a local governor
in southern China. When this uncle was replace with another officer, he and his charges went to
join an old family friend, a member of the powerful Liu clan who was currently a governor in central China. The imperial house of Han was a branch of the greater Liu clan, which as a whole
retained considerable wealth, prestige, and influence even after the passing of the Han dynasty
itself.
Zhuge Liang’s uncle died during his sojourn in central China.  Then in his twenties, Zhuge
stayed there, supporting himself by farming. According to Record of the Three Kingdoms, at this
early age Zhuge Liang was aware of his own genius, but few took him seriously; he was, after all,
an orphan and subsistence farmer. His fortunes took a turn, however, when the great warrior Liu
Bei, founder of the kingdom of Shu in western China, garrisoned in the area where Zhuge Liang
was living.
Zhuge was recommended to the warrior chief by a member of the influential Xu clan, which
produced many outstanding Taoists of the early churches.  According to Record of the Three
Kingdoms, Zhuge’s friend said to Liu Bei, “Zhuge Kongming is a dragon in repose - would you
want to meet him?” Liu Bei said, “You come with him.” The friend said, “It is possible to go see
this man, but you cannot make him come to you. You, General, should go out of your way to look
in on him.”
The record states that Liu Bei finally went to see Zhuge Liang, adding that he had to go no
fewer than three times before the young genius agreed to meet the warrior chieftain. When at
length they were together, the record continues, Liu Bei dismissed everyone else so that he could
be alone with Zhuge Liang. Then he said, ”The house of Han is collapsing; treacherous officials
are usurping authority; the emperor is blinded by the dust.” The warrior lord went on to solicit
Zhuge’s advice

Several academic authors in strategic management have adopted McKinsey's 7S Model as a useful way of visualizing the key components managers must consider when diffusing a strategy throughout their organizations (DeKluyver, 2000, Pearce and Wheelen and Hunger, 1995; Glueck, 1988). However, no research has been reported which empirically examines the model's usefulness in explaining the operational performance of service firms.

The analytic strategy of grounded theory had been used in several studies in various related fields such as management,marketing and tourism. However, the approach to discovering theory from data known as grounded theory is much cited but little understood, the grounded theory has seen relatively little productive discussion in management literature .Grounded Theory (GT) is perhaps one of the most abused phrases in qualitative study andincreasingly researchers are making claims to have used a GT approach . There are assumptions that Grounded Approach is difficult and could be only better employed by team of researchers or by a more experienced researcher who could dealt with the complexities and contradictions of this approach .GT needs self confidence and creativeness.GT is not easy for the beginners (Mehmetoglu and Altinay, 2004; Munir cited in Salim , 2006). Mode 2 of GT offers more practical approach in building theory in management. Two characteristics of mode 2 enquiries aretransdiciplinarity and emphasis on tacit knowledge. This paper will describestep by step in data analysis of GT and support references as well as my experience as a grounded researcher
