    Strategic Management and Policy Case Study of Harley-Davidson Inc

    In 1903, a legendary motorcycle company was formed when William S. Harley and the Davidson brothers, William D., Arthur and Walter, handcrafted their first three motorcycles. In 1909, Harley-Davidson introduced the first V-Twin engine, which is still the company standard to this day. From 1917-1918, the company supplied 20,000 motorcycles for the military during World War I, and during this time major design advancements of motorcycles were made with Harley-Davidson as the leader. By the end of the Great Depression, only Harley-Davidson and Indian (Hendee Manufacturing) were the sole U.S. motorcycle manufactures that survived through the 1930's.

The managers may react to specific situations and more concerned with short term problem solving.

Belbin (1997, p 98) suggests that, “there is a clear implication that leadership is not part of the job but quality that can be brought to a job … The…

    Enviornemntal, Organizational Audit and Strategic Planning of Mercedes Benz

    SWOT (S-Strengths, W-Weaknesses, O-Opportunities, T-Threats), is a useful analyzing tool to review a business’s strategy, position and its proposition which makes all aspects of its functions more measureable and quantifiable. It brings in more accountability due to which better implementations can be conducted on its planning strategies, competitor evaluation, marketing, product development and research reports. Six categories can be allotted to translating the analysis into actions, namely product, process, customer, distribution, finance & administration. Yet care should be taken that personal viewpoints do not hinder potential opportunities. This is because threats at often times also represent opportunities.…
