To successfully complete this part of the assessment, you are required to explore the academic, theoretical literature on business models and write an essay addressing the following: Based on your exploration of relevant literature, choose one conceptualisation that you think best explains how organisations exploit innovations.

Merger, Acquisition, and International Strategies

 
Choose two (2) public corporations in an industry which you are familiar – one (1) that has acquired another company and operates internationally and one (1) that does not have a history of mergers and acquisitions and operates solely within the United States. Research each company on its own Website, the public filings on the Securities and Exchange Commission. The annual report will often provide insights that can help address some of these questions.

Please do not use Apple, TESCO, Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts. I already wrote papers on these companies this quarter.

1. For the corporation that has acquired another company, merged with another company, or been acquired by another company, thoroughly evaluate the strategy that led to the merger or acquisition to determine whether or not this merger or acquisition was a wise choice. Thoroughly, justify your opinion.

2. For the corporation that has not been involved in any mergers or acquisitions, thoroughly identify one (1) company that would be a profitable candidate for the corporation to acquire or merge with and thoroughly explain why this company would be a profitable target. For each one of these points listed please see which one the company is using: (Firms use acquisition strategies to (1) increase market power, (2) overcome entry barriers to new markets or regions, (3) avoid the costs of developing new products and increase the speed of new market entries (4) reduce the risk of entering a new business, (5) become more diversified, (6) reshape their competitive scope by developing a difference portfolio of businesses, and (7) enhance their learning as the foundation for developing new capabilities.) List problems companies need to address.

3. For the corporation that operates internationally, thoroughly evaluate and identify its international business-level strategy and international corporate-level strategy and thoroughly make recommendations for improvement. Be sure to thoroughly explain if they are doing it well.

4. For the corporation that does not operate internationally, thoroughly propose one business-level strategy and one corporate-level strategy that you would suggest the corporation consider. Identify the business level strategy and explain if they are adopting the business level strategy. Thoroughly, justify your proposals.

5. Please make sure each paragraph has at least 5 long significant sentences or more. Use at least (5) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not quality as academic resources.

6. Paper cannot have more than 20% similarities. Must be APA style. Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and reference page are not included in the required page length

Briefing Note on (TPP)

 
TPP … I hate acronyms,” exclaimed a rather testy and annoyed Saskatchewan Minister of Finance to you his ever faithful, charming and loyal Deputy Minister.

“The Minister of the Economy claims she can’t make it to the next Cabinet meeting. Something about an international meeting of trade Ministers at a five star hotel in some remote resort that will take her three days to get to. Tough to take, eh?

“So guess what she wants me to do? She wants me to make the recommendation to Cabinet as to whether Saskatchewan should support the TPP, which I gather means Trans-Pacific Partnership. But fill me in my good Deputy.
Tell me all about why freer trade is important (or is it).
What are the objections to freer trade?
Briefly,
tell me about the other big trade agreements has Canada entered into?
Tell me about this TPP thing – what is it,
who is involved,
who negotiated it,
what does it entail from an economic perspective. Should we be concerned about any moral issues associated with the agreement?
Are there many downsides to the agreement?
Why isn’t China part of the partnership?

“Then give me the options for Cabinet and the advantages and disadvantages of each – please put them in a table so I can sort them out easily. And, finally give me a firm recommendation. You know I hate it when you get wishy- washy on me. Be sure to back up things with evidence like facts and data. Keep the note pithy.

“Now let me get back to my travel arrangements for the next meeting of provincial Ministers of Finance. I gather we get to go to Jake’s Corner which is somewhere in the Yukon that no-one knows or cares about … great … so much fun being a Finance Minister, eh?

LO3 Health and Safety

 
Measuring the health and safety activities of a care home is an important way of identifying where
improvements are required and what actions to
prioritise. Hence, the Management of
Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999 require employers to put in place arrangements to control health and safety risks
.
That is, assessments of the risks to employees,
contractors, customers, partners, and any other people who could be affected by an organization’s
activities. Organisations are also required to
record significant findings in writing (if there are five or more employees). Thus, it is imperative to have
arrangements for the effective planning, organisation, control, monitoring and review of the preventive and protective measures that come from risk assessment.
Given this context, your manager has asked you to coordinate a systemic monitoring and review of health and safety in your care home. You will need to gather information from staff and evidence of good practice that will be presented to inspectors from the Health and Safety Executive.
3.1In this section you should explainhow health and safety policies and practices are monitored and reviewed in your own workplace.
Monitor and review: audit of risks; review of practice; learning from experience; updating of policies and procedures.
3.2 In the second section of your report you should
analyse the effectiveness of health and safety policies and practices in your health and social care workplace in promoting a positive health and safe
culture.
Here you must use your actual workplace practice to
include into your answer.
Positive health and safety culture: individuals, teams, managers, organisational levels
3.3Finally,you should evaluate your own contributions
to placing the health and safety needs of individuals at the centreof your practice. In this section you may want to use Gibbs reflective cycle on reflecting on your own performance in placing the health and
safety needs of the service users in your practice.
Own contributions: responsibilities, compliance, training practices, interactions with individuals, groups and agencies
I need UK references and please number the answers.
