...Organization Structure Christofer Yacoub University of Phoenix The organization that I have chosen to write about is Chase Bank. This is my employer and I am quite familiar with how this business is laid out as well as how it functions. Now, for the sake of time and the length of this assignment, I will only focus on the United States division of our corporate structure and functions. We do extend even further as we offer international services. Chase Bank follows a divisional structure. This allows for the company to manage the profitability for each individualized department. We have the Consumer and Community Banking department (consumer banking and lending), Commercial Banking (business banking and lending), and our JPMorgan division (investment services) (Client Services, 2015) Within each of these three divisions, there are departments for research and development, marketing, sales, accounting, etc. Now the fear of having a divisional structure is that many employees end up doing the same position, therefore creating a lot of redundancies and causing an overall inefficiency. However, as we are a financial institution, this method works out quite well as many people are double and triple checking the work being done. The concern of inefficiency is mitigate by the absence of potential business risk. If we were to follow a functional structure, we would run into legal concerns when it came to our investment services. Due to federal regulations, we are not able...

...arm of JPMorgan Chase & Co.), was in the midst of formulating the final terms of a public-to-private buyout proposal for AMC Entertainment Inc. (AMCE). Always alert for new investment opportunities, JPMP had invested in the theater industry before and had started a process earlier that year to learn more about the current state of the market. The interest was prompted by a gradual recovery in theater attendance since the recession and post–September 11 downturn. Big hits in 2002 and 2003 such as Spiderman, Finding Nemo, Lord of the Rings, and Matrix Reloaded had brought crowds back to the theaters and increased merger and buyout activity in the sector. Through various industry sources, Penmeyer had learned that AMCE might be looking for potential investors. On April 30, 2004, a senior partner at JPMP telephoned Peter Brown, chairman, president, and chief executive officer of AMCE, to gauge his interest in further discussions with JPMP. Earlier in the year, AMCE’s board had explored several opportunities to create value for shareholders. Those included acquisitions, strategic combinations with other theater companies, and a possible recapitalization of the company to simplify its capital structure. Several past investments, including a $250 million equity infusion by Apollo Management, L.P., in 2001, had left AMCE with two classes of convertible stock in addition to its publicly traded common shares. It was the board’s belief that a simplified share structure—one with...

...Chapter 1 Strategic Leadership: Managing the Strategy-Making Process for Competitive Advantage Opening Case Wal-Mart Wal-Mart is one of the most extraordinary success stories in business history. Started in 1962 by Sam Walton, Wal-Mart has grown to become the world’s largest corporation. In the financial year ending January 31, 2004, the discount retailer whose mantra is “every day low prices” had sales of nearly $256 billion, five thousand stores in ten countries (almost three thousand are in the United States), and 1.3 million employees. Some 8 percent of all retail sales in the United States are made at a Wal-Mart store. Wal-Mart is not only large but also very profitable. In 2003, the company earned a return on invested capital of 14.7 percent, significantly better than rivals Costco and Target, which earned 9.4 percent and 10 percent, respectively (another major rival, Kmart, emerged from bankruptcy protection in 2004). As shown in the accompanying figure, Wal-Mart has been consistently more profitable than its rivals for years. Wal-Mart’s superior profitability reflects a competitive advantage that is based on the successful implementation of a number of strategies. In 1962 Wal-Mart was one of the first companies to apply the self-service supermarket business model developed by grocery chains to general merchandise (two of its rivals, Kmart and Target, were established in the same year). Unlike its rivals, who focused on urban and suburban locations, Sam Walton’s Wal-Mart...
