Four Seasons in Paris
[ send me this paper ]
An 8 page paper assessing decisions at Four Seasons as it expanded into Paris. Four Seasons seeks to maintain minimum standards that are far beyond the range of most hotels� superlative efforts. A Canadian company, it often is perceived as being an American one because of its concentration of American properties and attention to detail that is perceived by many to be more of an American trait. Entering France not only for the first time, but also in the form of acquiring and renovating the historic George V Hotel, Four Seasons� primary problem lay in determining where to establish boundaries of culture, both corporate and national. It found creative solutions that would allow it to take advantage of both forms. Bibliography lists 3 sources.

GE: The Paradox Of Industrial Strategy
[ send me this paper ]
9 pages in length. General Electric, the United States industrial group, has been described as a paradox; while it is the biggest and most successful company in the world, it is comprised of a highly diversified group of companies. Indeed, the manner by which this statement reflects current theories of industrial strategy speaks to the unmitigated need for global diversity within business. GE's industrial empire includes everything from broadcasting to power plant parts manufacturing to producing aircraft engines, transportation equipment, kitchen and laundry appliances, as well as lighting, electric distribution and control equipment, generators and turbines, nuclear reactors, medical imaging equipment, and plastics. At the other end of the spectrum resides GE Capital Services, which stands as one of America's largest financial services companies with almost half of overall. As such, one can readily understand the paradoxical element of GE's presence as the United States industrial group when it is not a single entity, but rather one that embodies the inhabitance of myriad elements in order to be made whole. Bibliography lists 10 sources.
