The air corporations Act 1953 was formulated and the two entities were nationalized namely Indian airlines corporation (IA) and Air India International (AI).

...How to Analyze a Case An Introduction to the Case Method For many of you, this will be the first course using cases that you have ever taken. The fact that this form of learning is new to you will naturally cause you some concern, and early on, some difficulty. Cases give you the chance to look at the present situation facing an organization, and after a systematic analysis, make recommendations that will produce a change in the results or outcomes. While you cannot be certain what that outcome will be, through the discussion and critique of your suggestions by fellow students and your professor, projections can be made about the foundation for the probable success of your recommendations. In this course you will have the opportunity to see how well you can assess and address a business issue or problem. The role of the case is to provide you with the opportunity to utilize the knowledge you have gained to this point to evaluate and make recommendations to enhance the performance of real organizations. This is not a substitute for real world experience in a job with an organization, but it is the type of learning that helps prepare you to begin using the business knowledge you have acquired. Analysis Frameworks There are several benefits in having a framework to use for analyzing situations. The first is that a framework provides comprehensive coverage of the topics and issues involved. Without a framework, the analyst may overlook some issues. For example...

Harun-or-Rashid 2013-1-91-036 Date of Submission: April 6, 2015 Introduction A performance appraisal (PA), also referred to as a performance review, performance evaluation, (career) development discussion, or employee appraisal is a method by which the job performance of an employee is documented and evaluated. Performance appraisals are a part of career development and consist of regular reviews of employee performance within organizations.

Other aspects of individual employees are considered as well, such as organizational citizenship behavior, accomplishments, potential for future improvement, strengths and weaknesses, etc. To collect PA data, there are three main methods: objective production, personnel, and judgmental evaluation.

...controlled to reduce costs. There’s some truth to this definition, but supply chain strategy really is broader; it defines how the supply chain should operate in order to compete. Supply chain strategy is an iterative process that evaluates the costbenefit trade-offs of operational components. A well executed supply chain strategy results in value creation for the organization. Business strategy involves leveraging the core competencies of the organization to achieve a defined high-level goal or objective. It also includes the analytic and decision-making process surrounding what to offer (e.g., products and services), when to offer (timing, business cycles, etc), and where to offer (e.g., markets and segments) as a competitive plan. While the business strategy constitutes the overall direction that an organization wishes to go, the supply chain strategy constitutes the actual operations of that organization and the extended supply chain to meet a specific supply chain objective. That being said, most companies have a business strategy, but are unlikely to have overtly designed a supply chain strategy. So, why is a supply chain strategy so important? Well, one good reason is to operationalize and support your business strategy. At some point, a business strategy must be executed and typically this is done through the...

It is a rational approach used in businesses. It starts with management thinking strategically, then applying steps and thought to a process. This process should be understood by everyone in the business. Although it starts with upper management, it should be implemented throughout the entire business and everyone should be included. According to Popescu, in the International Conference on Management and Industrial Engineering “The process of strategic management consists of an ongoing analysis, decisions, and actions activities to create and sustain competitive advantages in order to obtain desired competitive position and achieve strategic objectives”(Popescu,2013). This process is not one simple step and can be complex. It is not a onetime occurrence and can happen multiple times. The ongoing analysis, decisions, and actions that are performed should include all people involved. Everyone should be on the same page throughout the strategic management process. Goal Setting It is important for any business to set goals. Goals give businesses a purpose. It helps to organize the direction in which a business should take.
