Nonresidential Development in Southeast Michigan, Summary 2004 Nonresidential Development in Southeast Michigan, Summary 2004 May 2005 SEMCOG . Local Governments Advancing Southeast Michigan Mission SEMCOG’s mission is solving regional planning problems — improving the efficiency and effectiveness of the region’s local governments as well as the quality of life in Southeast Michigan. Essential functions are: • providing a forum for addressing issues which extend beyond individual governmental boundaries by fostering collaborative regional planning, and • facilitating intergovernmental relations among local governments and state and federal agencies. As a regional planning partnership in Southeast Michigan, SEMCOG is accountable to local governments who join as members. Membership is open to all counties, cities, villages, townships, intermediate school districts, and community colleges in Livingston, Macomb, Monroe, Oakland, St. Clair, Washtenaw, and Wayne Counties. Responsibilities SEMCOG’s primary activities support local planning through use of SEMCOG’s technical, data, and intergovernmental resources. In collaboration with local governments, SEMCOG has responsibility for adopting regionwide plans and policies for community and economic development, water and air quality, land use, and transportation, including approval of state and federal transportation projects. Funding for SEMCOG is provided by federal and state grants, contracts, and membership fees. Policy decision making All SEMCOG policy decisions are made by local elected officials, ensuring that regional policies reflect the interests of member communities. Participants serve on one or both of the policymaking bodies — the General Assembly and the Executive Committee. Prior to policy adoption, technical advisory councils provide the structure for gaining input on transportation, environment, community and economic development, data analysis, and education. This deliberative process includes broad-based representation from local governments, the business community, environmental organizations, and other special interest and citizen groups.

  • Annual Report Faces His Destiny
    The artist faces the work he wishes to create. He also Annual Report faces his destiny. A struggle begins out of which a © Roberto Borgo Roberto © sculpture, painting or photograph emerges from the artist’s At 31 December 2011 subconscious, revealing his imagination, his sensitivity, his creativity. Often it begins in the unknown, arrives at a junction, takes a side street, changes course and takes yet another route to culminate in the work that embodies “his” truth within. The manager goes through the same process. He faces decisions that will determine the destiny of his enterprise and the men and women in it. A duel begins – to make plans, set targets, establish strategies, evaluate results. Most of the time, just as the artist, he must act with the unknowns of the market, reckon with many variables and explore new roads, to then finally give form to “his” enterprise. The artist and the manager have a need in common: to take a decision, chart a course. Whether we are talking of a painting or photographic technique, as in one case, or an alliance or product launch, as in the other, the artist and the manager have to stay the course, to work in uncertainty without prevaricating. It’s about intuition and clearness of purpose. Artist or manager, we seek a truth for the continuity of our respective enterprises, the artwork I create or the leadership of this Group. I like to imagine the moment when each of us, in our own way, sets out on a course and makes choices, convinced financial year th of our own truth.

  • Les Acteurs De L'entreprise À La Recherche De Nouveaux
    ONZIEME RENCONTRE INTERNATIONALE DU GERPISA ELEVENTH GERPISA INTERNATIONAL COLLOQUIUM Les acteurs de l’entreprise à la recherche de nouveaux compromis ? Construire le schéma d’analyse du GERPISA Company Actors on the Look Out for New Compromises Developing GERPISA’s New Analytical Schema 11-13 Juin 2003 (Ministère de la Recherche, Paris, France) MERGERS, ALLIANCES AND ACQUISITIONS: THE “SMART” WAY OF INTERNATIONALIZATION? CONTRASTIVE ANALYSIS OF THE VOLKSWAGEN / SKODA AND DAIMLER BENZ / CHRYSLER MERGER Matthias KLEMM, Christian SANDIG Obviously, the forming of mergers, acquisitions and alliances represented a major business fashion (not only) of the automobile industry – comparable to former strategic orientations, like e.g. diversification (“Technologiekonzern”) in the early 1980s and concentration on core competencies in the late 1980s. Putting aside that this strategy was and is not the only choice for automotive companies to improve their position on the automobile markets (e.g. internal expansion, revival of old brands) it is also obvious, that opportunity (the willingness of a potential partner) and a certain position of power is necessary to adopt such a strategy of internationalization: the German automotive companies that we are dealing with here (DaimlerChrysler and Skoda) were in the position of being actors rather than reactors. Besides the fact of being a mass phenomenon and below the similarities of (possible) motives for waves of mergers, acquisitions and alliances during the 1990s all examples faced different constellations and challenges during the phase(s) of “post merger integration”. In this article we will compare the merger of Mercedes Benz with the Chrysler Group and the merger of Volkswagen with _koda by (1) briefly outlining the history of both cases, (2) trying to find differences and similarities and (3) drawing conclusions from both cases for further research.

Independently of one another, the two pioneers developed small, high-speed engines, based on Nikolaus Otto’s four-stroke principle, for the drive system of new automobiles. Since the use of these engines in the Benz patent motor car and Daimler’s motor carriage, the four-stroke gasoline engine has experienced unparalleled development. With their constant innovation, Daimler AG and its predecessor companies have played an important role in the success story of this internal combustion engine for more than 120 years. It was thanks to their tireless worK that the single-cylinder power unit of the automobile pioneers became an ultra-modern drive system, especially for passenger cars.
