...PEST CASE STUDY: COCA COLA PEST analysis examines changes in a marketplace caused by Political, Economical, Social and Technological factors. Look at the following statements abstracted from various sources, and group them under the following headings: Political; Economic; Social; Technological After the shock of the attacks on September 11, 2001, and despite the debilitating effect of the Iraq War, the USA’s economy had returned to sustained growth by 2006. However, things have changed quite dramatically recently; following the sub-prime loan catastrophe in the housing market, the economy is again in trouble. Most economists are now predicting a severe recession (negative growth for a year or more), and some predict depression (prolonged recession and contraction of the economy by more than 10 per cent). There have been recent major government interventions around the world, most notably in the banking sector, in an attempt to prevent the world economy from following the USA in a downwards spiral; it is too early to tell if, how and when these efforts will be successful. The recent election of Barack Obama as president is seen by many as a glimmer of hope, but it is recognised that once he takes office on January 20th 2009 he will be inundated with a whole sheaf of major internal problems that will take time, ingenuity and cash to sort out. Internationally, the range of political instabilities, civil unrest, military posturing, protectionism, economic distress, and other...

...Starbucks case study Strategic Management Starbucks- Evolving Into A Dynamic Global Organization March 25th, 2014 1. What was Howard Shultz’s original strategic vision for Starbucks? Is his 2010 vision for Starbucks different from the one he had in the 1980’s? How many times has his strategic vision changed? Is his present strategic vision likely to undergo further evolution? After evaluation of the case, it can be said that Shultz’s first strategic vision for Starbucks began during his trip to Milan, Italy in 1983. It is during this trip that Shultz’ came to the conclusion that “the Starbucks store in Seattle completely missed the point.” For him, going to Starbucks should feel like a treat for their customers and every time should be an experience. For this to be possible, Starbucks should do more than selling coffee beans, they should also serve fresh coffee in their stores, this, Shultz believed, would help recreate the Italian coffee bar culture in the United States, his original vision. This vision is represented throughout the opening of his own company, Il Giornale in 1986. In 1987, his vision continues to expand. At this point in time, Shultz acquires Starbucks, and the combination of the two companies creates Starbucks Corporation. Once he has become CEO and president, Shultz shares his vision with the staff; he aspires that Starbucks will become a national company with values and guiding principles that the employees could be proud of.
