I would recommend the first alternative which is to improve management. Mr. Walsh wasn't trained and didn't understand management. He could handle the company when it was small. He got lost as the Inner-City paint grew. If Mr. Walsh did some training, then the company probably wouldn't be in such a mess. He did understand how to expand the business and add employees were they are needed but he lacked giving trust to other people.

“The bigger the real-life problems, the greater the tendency […] to retreat into a reassuring fantasy-land” (Naylor). When the difficulties of life are unbearable, people often escape through various forms, such as an imaginary world where such problems do not exist. This is a form of escape and a way of ensuring that the difficulties at hand do not overpower their lives. This idea is explored through various characters in Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale. The district in which these characters are imprisoned, Gilead, is controlled by a radical Puritan government. There exists a regulation for every aspect of the characters’ lives: from religion to sexuality, from language to occupation, from meals to marriages. With such absolute laws, one would imagine that suicide is the only escape; however, numerous characters within the novel learn to escape in a manner which does not cause them harm. In Margaret Atwood’s The Handmaid’s Tale, government extremists cleverly employ various forms of control to manipulate the characters into feeling powerless and isolated; ultimately, this forces them to depend on temporary escapes to survive in Gilead.
The first alternative solution to the decision problem is vertical integration. The first consequence of this strategic option is that it could be a costly venture to implement. The company will require funds to purchase raw materials and it will also require significant amounts of money to set up card stores and stationeries in the location it chooses to locate. The firm will also incur costs in hiring and training additional employees to undertake the new activities. The next alternative is divestiture. This strategy will require that a consultant firm that is competent in divestiture strategy is hired. The strategy may involve laying-off some staff which would cost the company in terms of severance pay to those affected. The strategy could also lead to poor morale among the survivors. The strategy could also lead to a lot of resistance to change especially when it will be substantial. This will be costly as well. The next strategic option alternative is market development. This strategic option is also expensive especially when it involves developing new products or moving into new markets. These activities will require an increase in promotional activities and investment in new infrastructure such as new delivery vans, new sales staff etc. The next strategic option is market penetration which involves identifying and eliminating

In the role of government, the public sector is the sole actor of implementing a strategy. But as the limits of public intervention were recognised and accepted, state action turned to governance. In this mode, the state recognise that more stakeholder must be involved in the formulation and implementation of strategies and this involve the private sector as well as citizens. This shift was also brought because of the private sector has the financial recourses that the public sector has not anymore (Rydin, 2013, p.3-5).

The benefits to those organizations that choose to embark on the process of developing a long-range plan are numerous as well as invaluable.

Ultimately, the public is better
Jimenez was successful in Wichita not because of the monthly chats, weekly baseball games or Keller, but because she set up an environment conducive to attaining results she needed. This achieved two critical goals- it enabled the employees develop cross-functional solutions and fostered a sense of ownership and commitment. Jimenez misunderstood what made the Wichita project successful. Instead of trying to set up circumstances conducive to developing site-specific solutions in Lubbock, she simple imported the methods that the Wichita employees had created.

Ford Motor Company has been one of the most prominent automobile produces for the last 100 years. In recent years Ford Motor Company has been losing money. In efforts to save the company we will analyze three different plans to realign the company. The first option is to close down older plants. Hoping that closing down older plants would in turn realign production and sales. There is a large cost to buying out the workers, and shutting down the plants. Then on the other hand this leaves a window open that there would be a desire for Ford Automobiles once there is a short supply. This would cause consumers to shop with other competitor’s. Grand strategies are a broad strategic plan used to help and organizations achieve its goals, so three types of strategies are growth, stability, and retrenchment/recovery (Williams, 2010). The first option of closing down older plants is an example of a retrenchment strategy. This option should be considered because after closing down some plants and cutting employees this will save the company a lot of money. This will allow the other plants to make a recovery and balance out. For example Sears saw a large decline in earnings and began reducing cost and cutting jobs (Williams, 2010). A year later Sears retrenchment strategy returned and was successful about a year later (Williams, 2010). Hopefully, the same...
