Book Strategy and Place

Download or read book Strategy and Place written by Martha A. O'Mara and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 1999 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Organisational boundaries are being transformed by downsizing, outsourcing, and networked links with customers and suppliers. Unprecedented advances in telecommunications and 'virtuality' are changing how companies occupy real space. To survive, managers must radically rethink the physical aspects of their companies. Based on cutting-edge research at such companies as Pacific Bell, Lever Brothers and Merrill Lynch, STRATEGY AND PLACE presents a framework for making key business decisions about one of the organisation's most valuable assets: its physical facilities and properties. O'Mara outlines three main approaches to real estate and facility management decision making: Incrementalism, where only short-term commitments to space are made and capital expenditures minimised; Standardisation, in which control over both design and management procedures is strictly maintained with centralised decision making; and Value-based, where organisational values factor into all design-related decisions, and procedures are flexible to meet the needs of individual parts of the organisation. O'Mara explains the advantages and disadvantages of each strategy, and shows how to apply them appropriately, based on an understanding of the profound impact of competitive uncertainty in today's new business environment.

Book Performance Implications of Corporate Real Estate Strategic Orientation

Download or read book Performance Implications of Corporate Real Estate Strategic Orientation written by Steven Lee Duckworth and published by . This book was released on 1992 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A central concept in strategic management is that congruence between organizational resources and environmental conditions is critical to performance. There are three basic types of organizational resources: human, monetary, and physical. How well a fIrm allocates these resources in pursuit of its product-market opportunities determines the level of congruence with its environment. Rapid technological change and shifting patterns of competition have put an intense strain on the ability of organizations to maintain such congruence. In spite of these pressures, limited attention has been given in both management theory and practice to the resource that is perhaps most apt to impair the adaptability of organizations, namely real estate. The objective of this study is to determine how the strategic orientation or profIle of a corporate real estate unit (i.e., its approach to problem solving, its risk propensity, its level of proactiveness, etc.) relates to performance. A six dimensional model of corporate real estate strategic orientation (labeled CRESO) is developed from various literatures and practitioner experiences. This model is validated based on key measurement criteria (e.g., theoretical and observational meaningfulness of concepts, internal consistency of operationalizations, convergent and discriminant validity, nomological validity) and then used to explore important relationships with two dimensions of corporate real estate performance, service and internal operations, and two dimensions of business performance, profItability and growth. This study contributes to the fIeld of corporate real estate by developing "valid" measures of corporate real estate strategic orientation along multiple theoretical dimensions, and by providing insight into the performance implications of different strategic orientations. Directions for future research in corporate real estate are also proposed.

This book was released on 2015-02-03 with total page 150 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Doctoral Thesis / Dissertation from the year 2014 in the subject Business economics - Business Management, Corporate Governance, grade: B, ( Atlantic International University ) (Department Of Business Administration, Atlantic International University, USA), course: Business Management, language: English, abstract: This study sought to investigate the impact of leadership styles and business strategy on the organizational performance of Small-Medium Scale Enterprises (SMEs) in the manufacturing sector of Ghana. This had become necessary due to the fact that available literature on the subject matter lacked precision in terms of the specific leadership style and strategy which could better be employed to improve performance in the chosen area of study. A field survey (by means of questionnaires) was conducted in Accra, involving 60 CEOs and Senior managers drawn from 10 organizations, which were randomly sampled for the study. In addition, a time series data from 2008 to 2013 on sales, profits before tax and employment from the 10 organizations were collected to develop performance indices for the organizations. Regression and analysis of variance (ANOVA) were then run to examine the relationship between leadership, strategy and organizational performance. The study revealed that leadership and business strategy statistically and significantly impacted on organizational performance but strategy had the greater influence. Again, transformational leadership style and cost leadership significantly influenced organizational behaviour (p=.000

This book was released on 2024-02-26 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In business, success hinges not only on individual performance but on the vitality of the broader ecosystem in which a company operates. However, crafting a thriving ecosystem alone is not enough to ensure success. Equally vital is the ability to manage relationships within this ecosystem effectively, harnessing its potential to enhance overall performance.

This unique reference book delves deep into these critical aspects, offering a wealth of ideas, case studies, and best practices alongside thorough theoretical analysis. We recognize the undeniable influence of resource management and ecosystems on startup scalability, and our objective is to enhance understanding in this domain.

This provides better understanding of the linkages between TQM, based on the International Organization for Standardization’s ISO 9000 quality management systems (QMS), and national culture, based on Emeritus Professor Geert Hofstede’s national cultural dimensions. Premised on the culture-specificity and bi-directionality relationships between TQM and national culture, this book investigates the construction industries in China and Nigeria including their strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) as well as an appraisal of their historical and emerging relationships. In its conceptual approach, this book presents different models in the lead up to its primary theoretical contribution of a quality management assessment model (QMAM) that was adopted during the study’s field work. The book also presents relevant lessons relating to cross cultural management and quality performance not only to the Nigerians but also other foreign players in Nigeria’s construction industry.
