...Executive Summary: AT&T, based in Dallas, TX, is the largest provider of local and long distance telephone services in the United States. The company is divided into four divisions: AT&T Wireline (traditional voice and data landline service), Wireless, Advertising and Publishing and Other (includes the business integration software subsidiary). Revenues in 2008 were approximately $123 billion dollars, an increase of 4.3% over 2007. AT&T Wireless is the nation’s second largest carrier by sales and subscriptions, accounting for over 77 million customers and $69.8 billion dollars of revenue. Within AT&T the Wireless division represents the largest area of growth, compensating for customers abandoning traditional Wireline telephone service. AT&T landed a major coup in 2007 when it signed a deal with Apple to be the exclusive U.S. carrier for the iPhone. Not only did AT&T add new customers, it added more profitable customers. AT&T reports that an iPhone customer’s average revenue per user (ARPU) is $105 per month versus $60 for non-iPhone customers. AT&T’s corporate strategy for securing these profitable customers is to align itself with innovative technology, such as the iPhone, and pay a subsidy of $325 to Apple to make the iPhone more affordable for mainstream America, its target market. AT&T recoups the subsidy by locking iPhone customers into a two-year contract averaging $100 per month and maintaining this customer base through an exclusive contract with Apple.

...Cohesive Risk and Quality Management Strategies Anthony Farmer University of Phoenix 12/6/14 Cohesive Risk and Quality Management Strategies Companies are continually developing new approaches to business and relationships with their customers, requiring significant evaluation of what needs to be improved. This process of refinement is ubiquitous throughout industries, and yet, it may be particularly crucial for health care companies. Adjustments in law, such as the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act (ACA), have reshaped the economics and regulations that surround these companies and the industry as a whole. In order to implement the changes these laws require, health care companies have to evaluate their efficiency of care, and how that may affect their profit margins and sustainability over time. Risk and quality management strategies are popular in most industries, and perhaps especially so in health care companies. Patients filing lawsuits for malpractice, over-occupied beds and other limitations force these corporations and organizations to have real-time accountability for their workers, and a means for determining their patients’ level of satisfaction. As the factors, laws and issues fluctuate within the health care industry, risk and quality management analyses have to become that much more nuanced. Baxter Medical is one of the foremost leaders within the health care industry, producing pharmaceuticals and various...

This has led stock and derivatives exchanges to change their business models from mutual business entities, run for the benefit of their members, to demutualized corporations, run for the benefit of shareholders Consequently, as for-profit corporations, exchanges have looked to position themselves more competitively in an internationalized securities market. Part of such positioning has included increasing exchange alliances and acquisitions on a global scale. This is highlighted by the recent merger between the New York Stock Exchange (NYSE) and Euronext (the new entity to be known as NYSE-Euronext). With financial markets now spilling across national borders, demutualized exchanges see opportunities for growth and expansion by consolidating...

...entertainment. The following paper is a case study analysis of the Sony Corporation; a leading TNMC in the production and sale of consumer electronics, music and film entertainment and videogame technology. There are two main parts to this study. Part I. examines the history and development of the Sony Corporation. It builds on the theoretical work of Schein, (1984, 1983), Morley, Shockley-Zalabak (1991) and Gershon (2002, 1997) who argue that the business strategies and corporate culture of a company are often a direct reflection of the person (or persons) who were responsible for developing the organization and its business mission. Second Part examines the Sony Corporation from the standpoint of business strategy. Special attention is given to the subject of organizational culture and strategic decision-making. A second argu- ment of this paper is that while Sony is a TNMC, the organization is decidedly Japanese in its business values. This is beginning to change in the face of global competition and the need to improve business performance. This study combines elements of historical and economic research in approaching the questions under investigation. Primary resource information includes company reports and 10-K filings with the US Securities Exchange Commission, internal memoranda and other documents pertaining to the management and function of the Sony Corpo- ration. The most important aspect of the data collection stage...
