The following appeared as part of the business plan of the Capital Idea investment firm. “Across town in the Park Hill district, the Thespian Theater, Pizzazz Pizza, and the Niblick Golf Club have all had business increases within the past two years. Capital Idea should therefore invest in the Roxy Playhouse, the Slice-o’-Pizza, and the Divot Golf Club, three new businesses in the Irongate district. As a condition, we should require them to participate in a special program: Any customer who patronizes two of the businesses will receive a substantial discount at the third. By motivating customers to patronize all three, we will thus contribute to the profitability of each and maximize our return.” 2、An argument from the head of HR dept. in an automobile company: Study shows that employees of not-for-profit organizations, compared to those of for-profit organizations, are more likely to perform well when their performance is not monitored and evaluated. Interviews with employees of not-for-profit organizations also show shat they have more motivation. They believe that their work is important to improve the society. They have personal reasons to perform well, even without financial returns. Therefore, our corporation should donate a significant portion of the overall profit to humanity, to increase the motivation and productivity of the employees, and thus to increase the profit. 3、The following appeared as part of an article in a magazine devoted to regional life: “Corporations should look to the city of Helios when seeking new business opportunities or a new location.

4、(2次)The following appeared in an Avia Airlines departmental memorandum. “On average, 9 out of every 1,000 passengers who traveled on Avia Airlines last year filed a complaint about our baggage-handling procedures.

5、The following appeared as part of a business plan created by the management of the Take
