...DIVERSIFICATION: Savoir-Relier TM INTRODUCTION 1/2 The Walt Disney Company has been created in 1923 and has grown by doing well in almost all of its activities and mostly due to diversification. It is today a group worth $ 25B with an average 10-year ROE of 15%, largely superior to other players in the industry (but still inferior to the 20% objective settled by Eisner when named CEO of the company). Used to taking risks, Disney is present in more sectors than any other of its direct competitors, excelling them (first top 6 positions for theme parks even though entry is more expensive than other parks; first 24 positions for top grossing animated films; top market share in domestic box office since1994; Most watched TV Show in 19992000 with Who wants to be a millionaire).

Body Mass Index is a popular method of defining a healthy weight versus being underweight, overweight or obese. Body Mass Index should be used as a guide, along with waist size, to help estimate the amount of body fat a person has.

Obesity can shorten your life and put you at risk of developing a number of serious health conditions. These are, but not limited to high blood pressure, diabetes, heart disease and some forms of cancer. It has also been noted that health risks are higher for youth who are obese, and the risks happens to increase as the degree of obesity increases. Youth who carry extra weight around their waist, rather than in their legs and thighs, are more likely to experience health problems caused by obesity. However, parents, the community, and schools can make a huge difference when it comes to preventing and solving the problems of overweight and obesity in adolescent.

...48 Foreign-Market Entry Strategies in the European Union Kyle Stiegert, Archie Amir Ardalan, and Thomas Marsh This study utilized intra-firm, socio-cultural, geographical-proximity, and political-stability variables to explain bimodal foreign direct investment (FDI) patterns by agri-food and beverage multinational companies into and within the European Union. A logit framework incorporated a unique-count database of firm-level investment patterns from 1987–1998. The results showed the 1992 structural changes under the Maastricht Treaty increased the probability of wholly owned FDI modes such as greenfields and buyouts. The model also found that past modal strategies of firms, language barriers, and exchange-rate volatility all correctly explained modal investment patterns. The results provide important contributions toward understanding modal investment strategies including the role of macroeconomic changes within a custom union. A popular way for a firm to secure a business presence in a foreign nation is through foreign direct investment (FDI) in production, marketing, and/or distribution facilities. Formally defined, FDI is an investment in which a multinational enterprise (MNE) acquires a substantial controlling interest in a foreign firm or in some other manner establishes fixed assets on foreign soil. Prior to 1970, multinational operations were often characterized as an exclusively American institution (Erdilek 1985). However, during the 1970s the U.S. shifted from...

This analysis will utilize Dr. Ross Pigeau and Carol McCann’s model to evaluate the dimensions relating to Harris’ Competency, Authority and Responsibility (CAR) and to assess the overall balance and effectiveness of Harris’ command. The CAR model was deemed most suitable to dissect pertinent aspects of this complex and controversial commander, allowing for the necessary depth of analysis into his abilities, responsibilities, beliefs, actions and reactions over a specific timeframe. This paper will illustrate that Harris, although highly skilled in many areas and having demonstrated impressive successes at the helm of Bomber Command, had a singular and seemingly intractable approach to war – to obliterate Germany’s war production capacity by area bombing its cities. This inflexible approach inhibited his...
