Formulating & Implementing Strategy

Formulating & Implementing Strategy

Your assignment is to tell the story of your company. Your work should be structured in a narrative form. The questions below are designed as prompts. You shouldn’t feel obligated to answer these questions in order or to answer them all, although if you do a good job of things, you’ll end up answering most of them.

This is the company I picked- Baylor Scott & White Healthcare- So write about it and here are 3 questions to guide you- Do not plagiarise- also please make sure to site any quotes APA style and add your references at the end. Thank you.

Here is the BSW link that has lots of the demographic info. http://www.baylorhealth.com/About/Pages/History.aspx

1) Tell the history of the company (start at the beginning, hit the highlights). You might spend a little time (usually just one or two paragraphs) on how the idea for the business was generated (or some other interesting anecdote from the company’s founding).

2) Explain how the company is currently structured. What resources does it have? Where, geographically, are these resources. How many people does it employ? Where is it based? What businesses is it in? Who is the CEO? What does the organizational chart look like? Who are its primary customers? Who are it’s primary suppliers?

3) Describe the company’s basic business model. What resources does it require, where does it get these resources, what does the company do with these resources to produce products and/or services, etc.
