Alliance Evolution
[ send me this paper ]
A 10 page paper examining the changes of attitude toward both domestic and international business alliances.

Today that role has shifted more to generating revenues (Segil, 2004). The purpose here is to review Ohmae's (1989) article for concepts that have persisted in today's business environment.

Alternative Dispute Resolution
[ send me this paper ]
3 pages in length. The key to a successful business operation is for everyone to adopt a team mentality while at the same time hold onto the valuable individual aspects that complement the group as a whole. When this equation becomes unbalanced through conflict, however, the situation can quickly escalate to the point of closing down a small business or seriously compromising the productivity of a large corporation. It is at this juncture when alternative dispute resolution (ADR) is a highly recommended approach for settling the issue. Bibliography lists 2 sources.
