Competitive Markets
[ send me this paper ]
When considering pricing strategies the components of cost, competitor considerations, strategic goals, and member usage patterns for all products, not just a single product, must be taken into account. This 3 page paper addresses competitive markets and proposes that competitive strategy rests on the theory of efficient markets. The microcompetitive model performs as the foundation of industry analysis, identifies factors in industry profit differences, and explores the analytical concepts underlying the opportunity costs of capital. Industry analysis stands as a cornerstone of competitive strategy. It incorporates the Five Forces Model of Industry: (1) intensity of competition or rivalry; (2) presence of substitute products; (3) buyer power; (4) power of suppliers; and (5) impediments to market entry. The theories and propositions of George Stigler are examined. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Conflict Management Approaches
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. Based upon the student's collaborative or problem solving approach to conflict management, which supports a win-win outcome, this is somewhat contradictory to her employer's approach of direct conflict management, which reflects either a win-lose or lose-lose perspective. The student, whose assessment illustrates high ratings for collaborating (12) and very low for avoiding (4), clearly advocates a much more equitable method of conflict management where a resolution is sought by way of cooperativeness and high assertiveness. By contrast, her employer seeks to rectify conflict in a less interactive fashion by force and domination. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
