...Celash, Byrne & Moovon Company Acquisition Will Ralls CCIS 338 The purpose of this research paper is to identify which company Celash, Byrne & Moovon should acquire. We have narrowed our search down to just two companies, Google and Yahoo. In order to make the decision between the two on which one we should acquire, we need to take close looks at who each company is, what they do, and the financial data of each. Google is the world’s largest search engine. Although they started out simply as a search engine, they have branched out to many other markets. Gmail is a very popular email service. Their Android mobile phones are the most widely used of all cellphones. They also have a very popular web browser in Google Chrome. The Chromebook is gaining ground as a lightweight alternative to a traditional laptop computer. Other technology such as Google Maps, google drive, Google earth and others make Google a very innovative company that is not afraid to take on new challenges and expand into different markets. Yahoo is very similar to Google in that it has its beginnings as a search engine. Through a web portal, a person is able to enter anything into a search field and get back results. Yahoo also has an email service that is widely used. Although Yahoo and Google have similar beginnings, they have chosen different paths since then. Yahoo has evolved into one of the world’s leading media companies. They have a large following, and having leading sports...

As a result of the educational and incentive programs and focus on an enriched culture, more money was allocated to the program and new initiatives were started to enhance education and culture of the employees. Problem Statement It was a surprise to see how unproductive the transportation Manager was. On the other hand, a bigger surprise was to see how unproductive the regional manager of the program was. Several times I had to remind him that his appointment had already arrived. The majority of the time that I would enter his office he was either on his personal Facebook account or staring out the window and daydreaming. He would not prep for the advising...

...Communication Process: Atlantic Power Corporation Final Course Project MGMT591: Leadership and Organizational Behavior Professor Darr Ana Perez ana1025@gmail.com October 2012 INTRODUCTION The Energy industry is a very dynamic one and volatile at the same time. In order to be successful in this industry a power producer has to identify the right market according to the type of fuel used to produce the power. There has been a surge of many independent power producers (IPP) that build power plants and sell to either the open market (the power grids) or to a specific customer. When these IPPs are not successful they are usually acquired by a bigger IPP. This was the case I found myself in at Atlantic Power. Atlantic Power is a leading publicly traded, power generation and infrastructure company with a well-diversified portfolio of assets in the United States and Canada. The Company’s power generation projects sell electricity to utilities and other large commercial customers under long-term power purchase agreements, which seek to minimize exposure to changes in commodity prices. Atlantic Power has a combination of natural gas plants, hydro plants, bio-mass plants, and wind projects. The headquarters is in Boston and has satellite offices in Downers Grove, IL and Toronto, CA. I am currently the Operations Controller for the wholly owned plants of the limited partnership of the company. I am accountable for the execution of the monthly accounting close of the...

...Subject: Course Project Date: Friday, June 21, 2013 Title: Synergizing North American Energies Eric Hodge PO Box 20157, El Sobrante, Ca. 94820 Houseofcarpets11@cs.com 510.237.4447 Instructor: Michelle Branner About us: North American Energies founded in 2008 is headquarted in Richmond, California. NAE has 100 employees and 5 locations in the US and Canada, and is a privately held corporation. Overview of Organization North American Energies (nae) is a 5 year old company that supplies processed raw material in the form of charcoal and bio-fuels to public and private power generation companies. Currently hundreds of power plants (about 42% of all plants in the U.S. use coal) are running on coal which is an undesirable fuel because it gives off sulfur dioxide emissions, causes acid rain, and creates mercury pollution. Charcoaled hemp can be used to fuel and or be used alongside the coal. Since the hemp is a plant it only gives off CO2 and the new crop that is planted sucks up the CO2 that was previously emitted into the atmosphere. Thus the net CO2 emissions are zero. This makes it a clean burning fuel. Coal-Fired Power Plants are under mandate to begin shutdown. It is cheaper to change the fuel than to shutdown the plants and build new ones. The company has grown 50% a year for the last 4 years and is positioned to double in size the upcoming year. Nae contracts with farms in Canada and owns and operates factories in Canada and the US. They have capitalized...

All elements involved in the creation of this proposal, from problem definition through action plan, must be covered. Further, the proposal, as constructed, must meet the tests of any sound business plan, namely that it has specific and measurable goals and objectives, clearly defined activities, stipulated time frames during which those activities will take place, and clearly defined measurable outcomes. The subject matter of your paper should be business-oriented in nature and should avoid decisions that depend largely on intuition to solve. Although the length of the paper is not predetermined, a 10–15 page analysis, including data and appendices, is probably correct. You will also share a summary PowerPoint presentation with fellow students during the Week 6 Discussion. The Final Course Project Proposal with the PowerPoint presentation is due by the end of Week 7 (graded). Required Outline The following outline is required for your Course Project. Executive Summary (less than one page) This summary is a short, carefully worded description of the problem situation that identifies the recommended solution.

...Overview of Organization The organization that will be the topic of discussion of my course project is Verizon Communications. Verizon Communications headquartered in New York, is a global leader in delivering broadband and other wireless and wireline communications services to consumer, business, government and customers and employees 75,000 nationwide. The company operates more than 1900 retail stores and kiosks locations. There are two major parts of the business; wireless and wireline. Verizon began a merger of the two as of the end of 2012. The driving forces behind such change were to simply processes and create consistency among the company. The company felt that two sets of each the departments to accommodate both sides of the business were counterproductive. The objective of the transformation of the wireless and wireline was to streamline the company’s functions across the board while cutting unnecessary cost. The transformation began December of 2012 and is still I progress. For starters overlapping departments have begun to experience downsizing. This means that since we had a collections department on the wireless side of the business along with the wireline side of the business one of the groups was eliminated. The remaining group was then cross trained on the opposing side of the business in order to support both. As it stands employees have not been laid off but many have been placed in situations causing them to choose between relocating across...
