Can, and how does, the entrant succeed? Is the incumbent ever in control of this game?

/in /by

Theory and Strategy

We consider a sequential-move game in which an entrant is considering entering an industry in competition with an incumbent firm (see Figure 15-1). There are several possibilities of how this sequential game will be played. We want to use the Froeb rule of “look ahead and reason back.”

Instructions
Use Figure 15-1 from the textbook as your starting point to address the following:
Can, and how does, the entrant succeed? Is the incumbent ever in control of this game?

You may wish to review the old game known as Duopoly, as well as Antoine-Augustin Cournot, to help inform your post.

To many of us, it is important that we are able to identify the sex of another individual. When there is ambiguity, we often have a sense of frustration. Why is this so (according to KB)? If we were to have a greater tolerance for such ambiguity, what consequences can you think of in everyday life?

Describes the participants (or studies if a meta-analysis, or documents if a content analysis) you plan to use and the sampling plan for obtaining these participants/studies/documents (omit this section if your study does not have these items).

Part A

You should have completed your proposal draft to include the proposition, literature review, and synthesis. Now you must add the research design and research methods sections. Create a section called Method. In that section you will develop sub-sections that (a) provides an overview of your research approach; (b) describes the participants (or studies if a meta-analysis, or documents if a content analysis) you plan to use and the sampling plan for obtaining these participants/studies/documents (omit this section if your study does not have these items); (c), define the measurement instruments you will employ, if any; and (d) detail the procedures you will follow. See the Sample Proposals in Student Resources (there are three proposals: one for an experiment with a survey, one for a qualitative study, and one for a meta-analysis) for guidance on APA format and how these sub-sections should be organized). Make the corrections from your Week 1 and Week 2 proposal and add this new Method section to it. Submit the whole proposal you have to date, not just the Method portion.

Part B

You should have completed your proposal draft to include the proposition, literature review, and Method section. Now you must complete the following to do the results section.

Create a section labeled Results. This section describes your data recording and analysis process. Most studies will have five sub-sections (Data Recording; Reliability, Validity, and Bias Checks; Descriptive Statistics; Test of Hypotheses/Questions; Exploratory Analyses). This part of your study should be consistent with the earlier sections (i.e., it should fit the research approach and method you selected). See the Sample Proposals in Student Resources for guidance (there are three proposals: one for an experiment with a survey, one for a qualitative study, and one for a meta-analysis).

Be sure to describe the relevant data that will be collected to support your hypotheses and answer your research questions. Show what results must occur from the data analysis to support each of your hypotheses or answer your questions.

If you are doing a quantitative study, the data analysis should follow the steps outlined on pp. 156-158 in your textbook (also refer to the sample proposals in Student Resources for guidance). Also, use Table 8.3 on p. 159 of your textbook and the information in the PowerPoint slides on quantitative analysis to determine the statistical test(s) you will use.

If you are doing a qualitative study, follow the guidelines on pp. 190-198 in your textbook. If you are doing a mix-method study, combine the analysis process for the quantitative portion (pp. 156-158) with the analysis process for the qualitative portion (pp. 190-198).

Project 2 – Sustainable Business Management Strategy Development

Prepare a report writing about the company Nestle for 6 pages, APA format including a comprehensive analysis, plan, and recommendations for the development of a sustainable business management framework. The resulting report should cover all issues and problems that management needs to address for the successful completion of a company’s establishment or transition to a sustainable business management model. Thus, in your report you should:

 assess how sustainable is the industry in which your company operates: its impacts, challenges, trends, and perspectives;

 identify top sustainability performers in your industry, country, globally;

 assess your company’s sustainability position in the industry, country;

No needs to write for the company review, the introduction or conclusition. This is a group project so please just focus on the 3 bullets as I mentioned above. Link for Nestle’s issue summary is below, please do research for 4 more cites for the paper. Let me know if you have any questions and thank you!

Do members of the organization have the resources and authority to do a good job? Do employees have fun? Are they encouraged to be creative? Is there a spirit of cooperation or competition among team members? What criteria are used to evaluate employee performance?

Organizations Are Cultures


Organizations have cultures that can be just as distinctive as those of larger societies. Organizational culture reflects a relatively stable, shared set of values and behavioral rules within a company (Alvesson, 2011). In everyday language, culture is the insiders’ view of “the way things are around here.” Not all the rules and values of an organization
are written down. And some that are written down aren’t actually followed. Perhaps the workday officially ends at 5 p.m., but you quickly notice that most people stay until at least 6:30. That says something about the culture. Because you’re likely to spend as much time at work as you do in personal relationships, selecting the right organization is as important as choosing a best friend. Research shows that we are likely to enjoy our jobs and do them well if we believe that the organization’s values reflect our own and are consistently and fairly applied (Hartnell et al., 2011).
For example, some companies reward team members for offering great customer service without exception. On the other hand, a boss who talks about customer service but violates those principles may cultivate a culture of cynicism and dissatisfaction.Ask yourself these questions when considering whether a specific organization’s culture is a good fit for you. (Notice the importance of communication in each case.)
• How does the organization present itself online?
• Do members of the organization have the resources and authority to do a good job?
• Do employees have fun? Are they encouraged to be creative?
• Is there a spirit of cooperation or competition among team members?
• What criteria are used to evaluate employee performance?
• What happens during meetings? Is communication open or highly scripted?
• How often do people leave their jobs to work somewhere else?
• Do leaders make a point of listening, respecting, and collaborating with employees?
• Do people use their time productively, or are they bogged down with inefficient procedures or office politics?

Research suggests that communication—even seemingly unimportant small talk (Mak & Chui, 2013)—is the vehicle through which we both create and embody culture. At a personal and organizational level, effective, consistent, value-based communication is essential to success
