...what is Strategic Business Unit? What are conditions required for creating an SBU? How is performance of SBU measured? What are the advantages and disadvantages of creating SBUs? Ans. Strategic business units are self-contained divisions formed within an organization for dealing with specific business concerns. These units pull together the diverse parts of the concerned organization while cutting across the geographical and diverse lines for serving a specific market in a more efficient manner. These strategic business units are also referred to as independent business units or strategic planning units. The main philosophical concept behind the formation of strategic business units is to serve a clear and defined market segment along with a clear and defined strategy. These business units have to contain all the needs and corporate capabilities of the respective organization. The entire portfolio of the concerned business has to be managed by allocation of managerial and capital resources for serving the overall interest of the entire organization. This helps in developing a balance in the earnings, sales and the assets at a level which is controlled and acceptable for taking the right amount of risks. The strategic business unit (SBU) is created with the application of set criteria which consist of the competitors, price models, customer groups and the overall experience of the company. It is also sometimes seen that a number of different verticals present in the same organization...

...Exercise Introduction In this exercise, you will be creating some of the organizational structures for the fictitious Fitter Snacker company—a manufacturer of snack bars. Fitter Snacker has two products, the NRG-A and NRG-B bars. The NRG-A bar touts “Advanced Energy,” while the NRG-B bar touts “Body Building Proteins.” Multiple versions of the Fitter Snacker Company have been configured in SAP ERP system Depending on which class you are in, you will be assigned to a particular client in an SAP system. In SAP, the term ”client” has a different meaning than the typical usage of client in the computer world. In the beginning, while not technically correct, the easiest way to understand the SAP usage of client is to think of a client as a separate database. Information in one client, say client 503, is not accessible from other clients. When you log into the SAP system, you have to choose which System/Server you are logging into, then when you log in to that particular server, you have to specify which client you are using. Within each client in the system, there are 100 copies of the Fitter Snacker data. You have been assigned to one of these sets of data. On your SAP System User ID sheet, you have been given the system and client your account is on. You have also been given a Data Set Number, which tells you which set of data you should be using within your client. IT IS CRITICAL THAT YOU USE ONLY YOUR DATA SET. FAILURE TO DO SO WILL CAUSE YOU PROBLEMS AS WELL...

...This does exactly what its name says. You can organize users. This can be used in an organization or even in a school setting. By applying this into a High School you can add users to the Organizational Unit in which the year they graduate. Then once they graduate you can just delete the whole Organization Unit and not have to delete the individual user. This is also another way to control how much access a user has to the network to addition of what we have learned in previous lessons. Activity four asks us to Delegate Control of the Organizational Units we have created in activity three. Upon going through the wizard you can select Users, Computers, or Groups. I choose the use of Guests. I told it to Delegate the tasks of “Reset user passwords and force password change at next login” along with “Read all user information” for this activity. I could apply this if I was head of an IT department and only wanted certain users or groups within the department to perform certain tasks and...

...Running head: SEMINAR ALTERNATIVE ASSIGNMENT – UNIT 1 Seminar Alternative Assignment – Unit 1 Kaplan University MT302: Organizational Behavior SEMINAR ALTERNATIVE ASSIGNMENT – UNIT 1 1 What do managers do? “Managers get things done through other people,” (Robbins & Judge, pg. 5). This might seem like an extremely simple definition of a manager’s responsibilities, but it is the truth. There are many methods and ways in which a manager can develop their administrative and people skills. By using systematic study, utilizing the POLC and organizational behavior (OB) models, defining management roles, understanding OB challenges and opportunities, and assessing management skills and managerial activities, a manager can empower and motivate their employees, stimulate innovation, and improve customer service, while creating a healthy work environment. What is organizational behavior? Organizational Behavior is a “field of study that investigates the impact that individuals, groups, and structure have on behavior within organizations, for the purpose of applying such knowledge toward improving an organization’s effectiveness.” In other words, it is “the study of what people do in an organization and how their behavior affects the organization’s performance,” (Robbins & Judge, pg. 10). There are different tools that managers can use to better achieve their goals. One of these tools is called the POLC model. The POLC model consists of...

An organization may follow different designs at different stages of the organization.

...Services (ITS) group. The article presents the current work mechanism used by the ITS unit on their beeper system, thus unveiling the lack of organization within the unit. The problem seemed to arise from the fact that the ITS group was fundamentally a technology-driven shop, the lack of communication between the group and its users and the absence of knowledge about the human. After many incidents had taken place the CIO, Deane Morrison, took noticed and decided it was time to change the culture of the ITS group and branch into a more customer service oriented system. In order for us to tackle this organization scarcity of customer service, we must understand what is organizational behavior. Robbins and Judge (2011, p.43) describe it as a field of study that investigates the impact that individuals, groups, and structures have on behavior within organizations, for the purpose of applying such knowledge toward improving and organization’s effectiveness. Another important concept we must understand is that of organizational culture, Robbins and Judge (2011, p.555) describe it as a system of shared meaning held by members that distinguishes the organization from other organizations. An organization culture is concerned with how employees perceive the characteristics of an organization’s culture, not with whether they like it or not. Now that we know the what organizational behavior (OB) and organizational culture is, we can begin to...

...attention to what makes an individual ambidexterious. Several reasons warrant the examination of entrepreneur ambidexterity in small and medium sized enterprises (SMEs): 1. Small business have limited resource endowments. Since exploration and exploitation compete for scarce resources, attention and organizational routines, the situation is likely to heighten the paradoxes facing entrepreneurs. 2. Most SMEs are owned and managed by one individual or a very small group of individuals: the owner-manager makes virtually all the strategic decisions. Ambidexterity: 1. Literally: the ability to use both hands with equal ease. 2. In management: used to refer to an organization’s ability to do two seemingly paradoxical things simultaneously: * To explore and exploit * Be efficient and be flexible * Align and adapt Distinction between exploration and exploitation (March): * Exploration: includes things like research, variation, risk-taking, experimentation, play, flexibility, discovery, innovation. * Exploitation: includes thing like improvement, choice, production, efficiency, implementation, execution. According to March, organizational ambidexterity has been traditionally viewed as an organization-level construct that manifests itself in an organization’s explorative and exploitative attainments. Managers who strive to engage in both exploration and exploitation face a paradox: while exploration and exploitation complement each other...

...Assignment Instructions Unit: 4 Instructions: This week's Assignment consists of reading a scenario about Sandwich Blitz, Inc., and responding to four questions. Dalman and Lei have discussed two possible avenues to grow and expand Sandwich Blitz, Inc. One possible strategy would be to franchise locations. Another strategy would be to secure venture capital to finance an internal expansion by opening more company-owned shops. Dalman feels that he just doesn’t have time to investigate these options because he is spending an increasing amount of his time assisting the location managers. Lei noted that two of the location managers had exhibited a lot of skill in the management of their locations and perhaps a new position could be added to coordinate with the location managers. This would free Dalman to work on these larger issues. After reading the scenario above and your assigned readings in the textbook, paying particular attention to the section on authority, respond to the following questions: (Please number your responses 1 – 4 according to the four questions) 1. How would creating a new position between the CEO and the location managers help the business to grow? 2. Is promoting an existing manager the best option to fill this position? If not, what is an alternative source to fill the position? 3. Who within the company should make these decisions? 4. List the levels of authority (management) that Sandwich Blitz, Inc. would have if the new position is created. To help...
