Journal Problem: Strategic Business Management
These are the things I need emphasis on. This is considered a journal entry so I do not need extremely elaborate answers (due to short word count)
o Identify Caterpillar Inc.'s short-term and long-term goals.
o Evaluate how mergers and acquisitions in the last 3-5 years have contributed to Caterpillar Inc.'s performance and affected its organizational goals.
o Determine the most critical merger or acquisition that has contributed to Caterpillar's performance and success in achieving organizational goals. Defend your choice.
o Evaluate the effectiveness of Caterpillar's operational plan for global strategies (international, multi-domestic, global-standardization, or transnational). Include supporting research or data.
The response should include a reference list. Using double-space, Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
