Nike Case Study

This case study is based on an article by Simon Zadek in the Harvard Business Review for 2004. The case study has however been adapted and supported by academic commentary from other noted authors. There are two appendices. The first gives more detail to the activities taken by Nike. The second consists of some ideas and debates from noted authors. Business ethics and corporate social responsibility are new aspects of international business. From these quotations, from academic literature and from coverage of international events through news media, it is clear that subjects covered by the terms ‘business ethics’ and ‘corporate social responsibility’ are exercising ever greater influence on the policy and strategies of large companies. Employees and customers live in many different countries. These large companies need the support of, or at least the tolerance of, national governments to be able to operate in different locations across the world.

REAL ESTATE MARKETS

Assignment Task
You have been instructed by a client who currently owns a range of commercial real estate investment interests as follows:

Aberdeen – An industrial estate, extending to 2 hectares, located in the Dyce area of the city, currently popular with oil industry related engineering firms.

Edinburgh – A prime office building extending to 8,000 square metres located in the South Gyle Business Park and currently occupied by a leading personal finance company.

Glasgow – A secondary, city centre office building extending to 5,000 square metres which has just been fully refurbished and is currently being marketed for lease.

Your client is also considering acquisition of either the Surry Quays Shopping Center, London or a shopping mall in the Oxford Street, London. You have been approached for advice on the future outlook of the economy and probable performance of the real estate sectors affecting your client’s interests (including the possible acquisition of one of the shopping centres referred to above). You should produce a professional report that covers the following aspects:

1. a review of the UK and local economies over the past 10 years;

2. an analysis of the current economic health of the local real estate markets affecting your client’s interests;

3. informed predictions about the probably future performance of these real estate sectors;

4, detailed discussion justifying your predictions both with respect to economic theory and to recent market and economic evidence.

Note:
You are not being asked to value any of the client’s interests or to undertake formal investment appraisals.

Aims

The aims of the Real Estate Markets assignment are to:
i) facilitate the application of theory of real estate markets, focusing on the economics, dynamics and interactions between use, investment and development sectors, and

ii) present an opportunity to demonstrate practical application to an authentic commercial real estate markets problem.

The assignment therefore requires you to strike a balance between theoretical and conceptual argument, evidence and discussion and practical or applied understanding of the real estate industry and markets. The assignment should be written in professional report format but should source a range of evidence including academic references and more applied publications including, for example, real estate market or sectoral reports published by the leading property consultancies.

Predictably Irrational “The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions” by Dan Ariely (2010)

Book Review:

Predictably Irrational “The Hidden Forces That Shape Our Decisions” by Dan Ariely (2010)

Undergraduate College Level (Senior) Paper must have at least six quotes / citations from the book.

The book review paper should contain the following:
1) The author’s primary assertions. Although an exhaustive description isn’t necessary, readers will want to have a general idea of what the book is about before they decide to read further.
2) Offer a critical opinion of the book, supported with examples with the book (citations), knowledge of critical theory, or other facts having researched. What are the book’s major strengths and weaknesses, and why?
3) Conclude with some statements about your personal judgment of the book. Is this a book you would recommend to readers, and why? What social or historical events does the book address?
4) Optional: Compare the work to others by the same author or others in the same genre, if appropriate. Describe the book’s place in its field.

Book Review Guidelines:
The book review should contain a description, critical analysis, and an evaluation on the quality, meaning, and significance of the book, not a retelling. It should focus on the book’s purpose, content, and authority. A critical book review is a reaction paper in which strengths and weaknesses of the material are analyzed. It should include a statement of what the author has tried to do, evaluates how well (in the opinion of the reviewer) the author has succeeded, and presents evidence to support this evaluation. A critical book review is not a book report or a summary.
