...Ben & Jerry’s Homemade Inc. – B: Facing Acquisition Abstract In December 1999 Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenberg confronted three offers for their 17-year-old firm. Ben & Jerry’s Homemade, Inc. had grown from $2M in 1983 to $237M as the year ended. Growth rates had significantly dampened, however, a result of changing U.S. consumer preferences for lower cholesterol foods and competition. Jerry Greenberg had stepped out of day-to-day management of the firm some years before. Ben Cohen stepped back in 1994 when the firm incurred its first ever loss. He turned the helm over to Robert Holland, the first African-American to head a major U.S. firm. Holland came to the Ben & Jerry’s CEO position after a national search. His background as a McKinsey consultant and turnaround artist stood the firm in good stead. His moves concentrated on improving profitability, turning around a new plant that more than doubled the company’s manufacturing capacity, strengthening the depth of management experience in the top team, and responding to the demand for low-cholesterol with the introduction of a sorbet line. However Holland stepped out of the firm after almost 18 months with observers suggesting that he had felt uncomfortable with the founders’ “clowning and campaigning.” Perry Odak, Ben & Jerry’s next CEO, came with extensive consumer marketing experience in companies such as Armour-Dial. However, he had also been COO of U.S. Repeating Arms. Given the founder’s strong emphasis...

The company has the knack of finding the magic formula for every aspect – be it customer satisfaction, innovative marketing or smart partnerships. Given the brilliant performance that Starbucks found in the US, success should have been a foregone conclusion in other geographies as well. Despite all the positives, it could not replicate the same degree of success in Europe as it enjoyed in the US. This study has analyzed the factors which might be held accountable. The aggressive policy of opening stores worldwide to achieve inimitability of its business model, loss of control over the cost of operations, the stock market’s notional correlation of success with number of stores, over-reliance on Seattle management causing a lack of decentralization of key decision-making power...

...SEMINAR ADMINISTRATION DEVELOPMENT 1 BUILDING SOCIAL BUSINES ‘D’ BY JULIUS KWAKU KATTAH STUDENT ID. NO. UD32228BEC40802 DOCTORATE IN INTERNATIONAL ECONOMICS ATLANTIC INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY, HONOLULU, USA 09/07/14 ABTRACT The business strategy perspective argues that achieving competitive advantage hinges on pursing a coherent competitive strategy. Family businesses are also said to manifest a strong desire to develop enduring and committed social relationships with external stakeholders. This study examines the effect of business strategy on performance of family businesses and how their managerial social networking relationships with external entities moderate the business strategy–performance link. Using data from 54 family firms from Ghana, the findings indicate that: (1) the pursuit of the business strategies of cost leadership and differentiation create competitive advantage for family businesses; (2) social networking relationships with government bureaucratic officials and community leaders are beneficial to family businesses, but social networking relationships with political leaders is detrimental to family businesses; and (3) the benefit of business strategy to...

...Learning Report To: The Students of BBA & LLB Programme From: Muhammad Fazlur Rabb Tanvir Assistant Professor, School of Business, Metropolitan University, Sylhet. 10 October 2012 Social Business (Source: Yunus Talks on Social Business with British Council team, The Daily Star, Wednesday, 10 October 2012) Introduction: Social business, as the term is commonly used, was first defined by Nobel Peace Prize laureate Prof. Muhammad Yunus and is described in his books Creating a world without poverty—Social Business and the future of capitalism and Building Social Business—The new kind of capitalism that serves humanity's most pressing needs. A number of organizations with which he is involved actively promote and incubate social businesses. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_business) In Yunus' definition, a social business is a non-loss, non-dividend company designed to address a social objective within the highly regulated marketplace of today. It is distinct from a non-profit because the business should seek to generate a modest profit but this will be used to expand the company’s reach, improve the product or service or in other ways to subsidise the social mission. In fact a wider definition of social business is possible, including any business which has a social rather than financial objective. Prototype: In Yunus’ book Creating a World without Poverty—Social Business and the Future of Capitalism, two different types of social businesses are proposed: ...
