Taking Sides Case Analysis
Citigroup fue uno de los primeros bancos extranjeros que habían obtenido licencias para llevar a cabo una serie limitada de las actividades comerciales en China. Cuando China entró en la Organización Mundial del Comercio a finales de 2001, Citigroup se encuentra todavía en una etapa temprana en su estrategia de China. En 2002, Citibank se ha convertido en uno de los más fuertes de los bancos extranjeros que operan en el People's Republic de China (PBOC), pero como un banco extranjero que tiene acceso limitado a los mercados, por una limitada gama de servicios. Citigroup quería para determinar las perspectivas de crecimiento para cada una de sus divisiones, y que de su amplia gama de servicios financieros debe ser el foco de expansión en China (Conklin, 2005). Analizando detenidamente el caso titulado "Citigroup in Post-WTO China” se dio a la tarea de explorar la viabilidad de que si Citigroup no tiene la capacidad de adaptación mostradas en su intento de ampliar sus operaciones en China.
A pesar de que Citigroup fue una de las primeras empresas extranjeras en obtener licencias para llevar a cabo negocios en China con limitado acceso a los mercados, y se ha adaptado con éxito integrada de su negocio en otros mercados mundiales, no ha tiene capacidad de adaptación en China. Hay varios factores que contribuyen a su incapacidad para integrar y ampliar sus operaciones post WTO de China. Algunos de estos factores son la necesidad de la reforma del gobierno, el PBOC, que es el organismo regulador en China, la situación financiera de las empresas de propiedad estatal (SOE), problemas de los recursos humanos, la sensibilidad de China a la inflación, y las perspectivas de Citigroup sobre las empresas conjuntas.
Citigroup está acostumbrado a trabajar en el mercado abierto de las sociedades capitalistas. Aunque la WTO la apertura de los mercados mandatos China se ve impedida en este ámbito. Con el fin de que Citigroup tenga éxito en China hay necesidad de la reforma del gobierno. Muchos expertos creen que con el fin de China para cumplir los acuerdos alcanzados a través de la WTO, es necesario que haya una reforma política. Desde el Partido Comunista se ejecuta actualmente, China tendría que tener un "cambio hacia la democracia, la libertad de expresión y las leyes comerciales modernas", antes de Citigroup podría adaptarse.

Innovation management is the management of innovation processes. It actually refers both to the product and organizational innovation, but in this paper I will mention more about innovation in project based organizations. Innovation management consists of tools, that allow managers and engineers to work together with a common understanding of processes and goals, also helps the organization to respond to internal and external opportunities and utilizes its creativity to bring new ideas processes

interests and professional ambition of being a part of my country’s technological workforce. Though, Ghana my country of origin has seen tremendous growth in the use of technology in the past two decades there still remains a huge gap between Ghana and the Advanced World in terms of technological innovation, application and use of technology amongst the indigenous population. Motivated by the hope of bridging this technological gap between Sub Saharan Africa and the world, I file this application

Paying attention on the sectors which consume major portion of natural resources, construction can be put as number one in the world. Therefore, the need for effective construction waste management is growing in importance, with the increasing generation of construction waste and to its adverse impacts on the environment (Freitas & Magrini, 2017). Furthermore, construction activities consume a large quantity of materials and energy as well as generating unacceptable level of solid waste. Accordingly,
Knowledge Management: Information Distribution, Culture, and Integrative Policies Gustavo A. Giz Florida International University June 01, 2014 The conception of analyzing Knowledge Management (KM), and its numerous applications, into a dynamic environment, is much more than what the unassuming exterior implicates. KM perceives the impression and development of information technology, through a shared-thought process in which a collective organization distributes knowledge, within all
purposes of these? This was fortunately my first meaningful question in childhood and trying to find answers for my ideas helped crafting me. Hence when it came to making a career decision, Engineering in Computer Science (B.E CSE) at an impeccable technological university in Chennai - Anna University was an obvious choice for me. This early connection gave me a higher desire to drill into computer, technology and information which right came in line on my undergraduate computer science curriculum. In
Six Sigma method influences an organization’s technology, strategy and goals, and the culture of an organization.

Lean Project Management Lean project management (LPM) is the comprehensive adoption of other lean principles such as lean manufacturing and lean construction into the project management context. Lean system emphasizes on the prevention of waste such as labor and material spend, in this case in the design project of wind solar hybrid system. It is to manage the project with the minimum overhead. Wastes that do not add value to the product must be eliminated. LPM is also about building a lean behavior

Winter (1982) defends that any modification in a product or process without previous experience can be understood as an innovation. For Bessant e Tidd (2009), the theory around innovation process (i.e. Cooper’s stage-gates) were developed based on technological innovations, particularly from the industrial sector. This article adopts the concept proposed by the Innovation Report (DTI, 2003) which define innovation as a successful exploration of new ideas, involving new technologies or applications and
can reinforce the entrepreneurial spirit and allow an organization to react quickly and creatively to a changing environment.
