Acer's Contemplation of Manufacturing in Canada
[ send me this paper ]
A 7 page paper
discussing whether Acer Computer should expand manufacturing operations to include a site in
Canada. The company already maintains shipping and repairing facilities, and the proposal is that
Acer Canada institute a build-to-order scheme patterned after that of Dell Computer. The year is
1996 and long-term projections already call for the PC industry to suffer certain decline.
Superficially, it is not the time to begin manufacturing PCs and expect to be profitable, but the
SWOT analysis of the situation indicates that adding manufacturing to current existing operations
is a sound and relatively inexpensive move. The paper recommends that Acer add manufacturing
to existing Canadian operations. Bibliography lists 1 source.

Achieving Effectiveness Through Organizational Behavior and Human Resource Management
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper discussing the influence of these two factors in achieving success in international business. There is a lag time between establishing strategy for the future and arriving at that time that formerly was referred to as “the future.” During that lag time, HRM is obliged to have identified the organization’s workforce’s current position and future needs, and to train for those needs that will be needed in the future. The goal is to develop and maintain a workforce aligned in qualifications and expertise with the organization’s strategic goals. The larger organization needs to have defined precisely what the organization’s strategy will be both at the current time and in the future. HRM must have time to plan and have a direction that it needs to go. Astute organizational behavior combined with effective HRM should result in greater business effectiveness.
