...NDUSTRY ANALYSIS Industry analysis is a tool that facilitates a company's understanding of its position relative to other companies that produce similar products or services. Understanding the forces at work in the overall industry is an important component of effective strategic planning. Industry analysis enables small business owners to identify the threats and opportunities facing their businesses, and to focus their resources on developing unique capabilities that could lead to a competitive advantage. "Many small business owners and executives consider themselves at worst victims, and at best observers of what goes on in their industry. They sometimes fail to perceive that understanding your industry directly impacts your ability to succeed. Understanding your industry and anticipating its future trends and directions gives you the knowledge you need to react and control your portion of that industry," Kenneth J. Cook wrote in his bookThe AMA Complete Guide to Strategic Planning for Small Business."However, your analysis of this is significant only in a relative sense. Since both you and your competitors are in the same industry, the key is in finding the differing abilities between you and the competition in dealing with the industry forces that impact you. If you can identify abilities you have that are superior to competitors, you can use that ability to establish a competitive advantage." An industry analysis consists of three major elements: the underlying forces...

I feel like I have an above average understand on how to interpret information because I have taken two college level history courses already. I am taking this particular class because I need to fill in some units for my transfer at the end of this year and history is one of my favorite subjects. As of now, I have no questions regarding the course. I have looked over the syllabus and have ‘perused’ the Survival Manual.

...traced back to its birth during those days of relentless devotion to a common cause. Jamnalal Bajaj, founder of the group, was a close confidant and disciple of Mahatma Gandhi. In fact, Gandhiji had adopted him as his son. This close relationship and his deep involvement in the independence movement did not leave Jamnalal Bajaj with much time to spend on his newly launched business venture. His son, Kamalnayan Bajaj, then 27, took over the reigns of business in 1942. He too was close to Gandhiji and it was only after Independence in 1947, that he was able to give his full attention to the business. Kamalnayan Bajaj not only consolidated the group, but also diversified into various manufacturing activities. The present Chairman of the group, Rahul Bajaj, took charge of the business in 1965. Under his leadership, the turnover of the Bajaj Auto the flagship company has gone up from INR.72 million to INR. 120 billion, its product portfolio has expanded and the brand has found a global market.

...I was only 12 when Sachin Tendulkar first represented India and left a nation instantly mesmerised. I remember watching him dance down the track to hit Abdul Qadir for three towering sixes, and must have tried to do the same innumerable times, if only in my imagination. While I was still learning how to stand properly at the crease, Tendulkar was earning standing ovations around the globe; while I was still learning how to use my feet to get to the pitch of the ball, Tendulkar was taking giant strides. The more I played the game, the more I admired him, for it was only through playing that one truly understood the scale of what he was doing. By the end of the 1990s, it was as if he had ceased to be just a player, and now symbolised excellence. It was around this time that I started nurturing the dream of playing for India myself. And yet playing for India and playing alongside Tendulkar seemed two separate things. Playing for India would mean countless hours of toil, something I was prepared for. But nothing had prepared me for sitting in the dressing-room next to my idol. I was a bundle of nerves when I walked into the conference hall of Ahmedabad’s plush Taj hotel for my first India team meeting in October 2003. I had attended many team meetings before, but had little idea of how this one would unfold – and even less idea of how I would react to my first encounter with Tendulkar. Fifteen minutes in, I worried our chat wouldn’t go beyond the customary exchange of greetings:...

...these sub-brands are endorsed by the parent and yet maintain their own distinguished persona and value proposition in the consumer’s mind. A complete break away from the parent that is the creation of an individual brand would not be possible for Marriott in this case. Primarily because here the consumer is looking for her needs to be met within the universe of Marriott-backed service guarantee. The “endorsement” is necessary. In effect, branding strategies must be guided by, as well as geared towards, achieving a larger goal. Let us consider the examples of telecommunications player Tata DoCoMo and two-wheeler major Bajaj Auto, two brands that have chosen to take completely opposite routes around the same time to illustrate the dos and don’ts of the branding journey. And yet, each has valuable lessons in store for future managers. One versus many The Strategist looks at the recent experiences of TataDoCoMo and Bajaj Auto to check if the textbook assumptions about umbrella versus multiple branding stand true on the ground MASOOM GUPTE he standard view of business growth is that growth is always good, bigger is always better and that companies must grow or die. While every company aspires to grow its business, an expanding business brings with it a host of new risks: too many people, too many locations, too many products and at times, too many brands T to contend with. At least for marketing managers the choice is clear: they have to decide whether they prefer the simplicity...

...Assignment Paper Course Title: News editing and Translation Course Teacher: Nazrul Islam Course Code: MSJ11322 Submitted By: Sourav Ghosh I.D: 113012035 Department: MSJ Date: 24-November-2013 Sachin Tendulkar: A great human being more than a great player 26th December 2004, there was the second one day match Between Bangladesh and India. The match was just about to start. A boy aged most probably ten was walking around the pavilion of Bangabandhu national stadium in Dhaka. The father of that boy was trying to feed him something but it was not ready to take. Then he asked him why not you are eating, would please tell me? He did not reply and pay attention at all. His eyes were strung on stairs towards the dressing room. Suddenly he cheered up, here is Sachin tendulkar ! After hearing the shout everyone was on their feet whether it is true or not. As soon as the boy saw him he at once agreed to eat. It is so much surprising that a sports person can make such impact on a child that he even refused to eat! But it was not so unusual to see a youngster left his food to see one of the greatest cricketers ever. This is `how Sachin Tendulkar has made himself as the cricket god to his fans. There is nothing to tell...

...Virat Kohli set to beat Dhoni, Tendulkar in endorsement earnings Team India's batting sensation, Virat Kohli, has been a huge hit with the youngsters - thanks to his quick rise in the international cricket over the past few years. An eye candy for the domestic and international brands, the Delhi lad is all set to surpass the incumbent Indian skipper MS Dhoni and master blaster Sachin Tendulkar in the endorsement earnings. Team India's vice-captain, who seems to be the most comfortable young gun on screen, has reportedly signed a Rs.10-crore per year deal with German sports goods giant, Adidas. The 24-year-old cricketer will be seen endorsing Adidas' apparel and shoes as per his three-year contract. Sachin Tendulkar was the face of Adidas shoes for quite some time in India but it seems that the master blaster's age is finally catching up on his endorsements. According to the TOI reports, the right-hander has also struck a Rs.6.5 crore a year deal with a popular tyre brand that had Tendulkar and Steve Waugh as its ambassadors. The new deals will help Team India's probable future captain to beat the likes of MS Dhoni and Sachin Tendulkar in terms of annual earnings per brand endorsement. With these two deals in his kitty, Kohli is set to take on the big players with an increase in his annual earnings from last year's Rs.40 crore in endorsements. He is currently the face of 13 brands including Pepsi, Toyota and Cinthol deodorants. The Indian skipper MS Dhoni...

While BJP's charge will be led by its PM candidate Narendra Modi, Congress will have Priyanka Gandhi leading from the forefront.

...M.S Dhoni-Leading all the way! If I were to be a part of a company ,wherein we were told to choose a leader under whom we were willing to work,I can’t think of a name other than M.S Dhoni. Mahendra Singh Dhoni is the only captain in the world to have tasted success in all formats of the game, and that too in just four years. He led a young Indian team to victory in the inaugural T-20 Cricket Championship in September 2007. In December 2009, India became the top-ranked Test team in the world for the first time under his captaincy. He captained Chennai Super Kings (CSK) to victory in IPL,April 2010 and followed it up by lifting the Champions League Trophy for the same team in September. The mother of all victories came April,2011 when India won the ICC Cricket World Cup after 28 years. No wonder, batting legend Sachin Tendulkar ranks him the best among the nine captains he has played under in his 21-year career. Australian great Greg Chappell calls Dhoni the best captain in the world today. Former Indian skipper Kapil Dev has no qualms in accepting that Dhoni is a better captain. Very often India’s success has been attributed to Dhoni’s strong luck.However,more often than that there have been occasions when he surprised everyone with his decisions in the make or break situations.And almost everytime his gamble has paid off. Dhoni's decision to come in to bat at number five, ahead of the in-form Yuvraj Singh, in the World Cup finals would have cost him his job had the result...
