Innovation is key to a company’s competitive advantage and their
ultimate success. However, in large corporations, where the
standard is typically one of carefully implemented planning
cycles, innovation (including the development of disruptive
technologies and radical business concepts) is often stifled.
Progress comes at the pace of small incremental improvements
rather than the leaps and bounds that can be found in companies
where innovation is properly managed and is nurtured to grow.
And, even though some companies have the ability to produce
innovations, the mismanagement of these innovations prevents
them from being as profitable as possible. These companies,
where innovation is hindered and/or mismanaged, are limited
in their ability to compete with competitors, especially newcomers
who may quickly snatch up large percentages of market share.

20537 Influence
of Groups
Groups are “a collection of two or more people who come together
for a shared purpose. (They have) direct interaction with each
other, (their) membership (is) based on common purpose, (and
there is) some degree of interdependence.” (Nyatanga) Groups
form everywhere, spontaneously and planned, however, it’s within
a business organization that these groups and their influence
must be understood to ensure that a business is operating as
efficiently and effectively as possible.

20538 Adaptation
for Effective Leadership
There are two schools of thought that effective leadership is
adapting one’s leadership style to fit the situation and that
one must adapt the situation to fit the leadership style. The
question then arises, which is correct? Should a leader be so
flexible as to change his or her style on the fly? Is that even
possible? Should the leader try to change the situation to best
fit his or her personal leadership style? Is this possible?
Perhaps, in the end, is a combination of both, dependent on
the situation at hand.
This paper analyzes the methodology used in a quasi-experimental
design, using a study by Skarlicki and Latham (1996 in which,
the researchers conducted a study in which they trained managers
in the area of justice and reported an increase in citizenship
behavior directed toward the organization as a result of the
training. It might be considered a natural extension of this
idea to obtain measures of organizational efficiency, customer
perceptions, and other relevant.

20572 The Long-Term
Economic Viability of Strip Malls
This paper shall discuss the long-term economic viability of
strip malls in affluent suburban environs. To that end, the
paper will examine some of the benefits of the strip mall model
but also some of its pitfalls. Ultimately, the paper will conclude
that the strip mall development plan should be abandoned in
favor what planners are referring to as urban smart growth.
Public sentiment and even some legislative measures are curbing
the spread of strip malls; therefore, they should not be considered
as viable in a long-term sense.
