A Managerial Planning Model: An Application To The Farm-Cultured Catfish Industry In Determining The Characteristics Of Processed Farm-Cultured Catfish Consumers In Little Rock And North Little Rock, Arkansas, Argus Kenneth Pippin

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The objectives of the study were: (1) to evaluate the processed farm-cultured catfish business in its embryonic stage during 1968 in terms of a systematic managerial planning model (MPH); (2) to focus on the managerial strategy of market segmentation and determine the relationships between the number of processed farm-cultured catfish sales and selected economic and socio-economic determinants or consumer market behavior. From the evaluation of the processed farm-cultured catfish business as it existed in 1968, it was suggestive that the planning process was not implemented thoroughly. Several areas exhibited weaknesses or unfavorable influence that were deterrents to the success of …

An Application Of Organizational Development In An Institution Of Higher Learning, Stanford R. Bohne

All Master's Theses

An action research model was used to assess the application of Organizational Development theory, strategies, and interventions in the Business and Financial Affairs area of an institution of higher learning. Initial assessment indicated that a group of seven top managers of Business and Financial Affairs had low morale, a low trust level, lack of clarity of goals, and lack of teamwork. Results suggested that significant increases had occurred over the last 34-month period on measures of group development. It was concluded that such strategies merit further application and evaluation.

Consumer Attitude Analysis For Three Albuquerque Mortuaries, Paul A. Smyer Jr.

Anderson School of Management Theses & Dissertations

An attitude is the predisposition of an individual to evaluate some symbol or object or aspect of his world in a favorable or unfavorable manner.

The primary tools for determining problem areas were a self-actualization test and Likert’s semantic differentials which characterize an organization's climate. Each department in the City was compared to the City in total to determine any differences with respect to those two …
