Change or die

Article Abstract:

Co-authors of In Search of Excellence Thomas J. Peters and Robert H. Waterman, Jr. have each written new studies individually. Peters' Thriving on Chaos and Waterman's The Renewal Factor both emphasize the role and importance of corporate change. Both authors suggest that businesses that fail to anticipate change may fail. Both authors also suggest that US international dominance is over and that the US is now simply a big player in an interdependent business world.

Portugal's odd man in

Article Abstract:

Belmiro de Azevedo is the leader of Portugal's largest private sector company, the Sonae Group, encompassing 40 medium-sized companies, ranging from manufacturing chipboard laminates to tourism. de Azevedo is attempting to expand the organization abroad by listing the company on the London Stock Exchange. The move to go international has been blocked, however, because Sonae is currently involved in a struggle with Portugal's tax authorities.
