Selecting a business strategy that details valuable resources and distinctive competencies, strategizing all resources and capabilities and ensuring they are all employed and exploited, and building and regenerating valuable resources and distinctive competencies is key. The analysis of resources, capabilities and core competencies describes the external environment which is subject to change quickly. Based off this information a firm has to be prepared and know its internal resources and capabilities and offer a more secure strategy. Furthermore, resources and capabilities are the primary source of profitability. Resources entail intangible, tangible, and human resources. Capabilities describe environment and strategic environment. Core competencies include knowledge and technical capability. In this section we will attempt to describe in detail the three segments which are resources, capabilities, and core competencies.
Key Issues: At the end of 2012, Costco was a successful business; however, there are some issues that they would need to deal with. These issues mainly arise from their previous successful ventures as a warehouse wholesale company. The first issue is that Costco has competitors that can actually be and are a threat to their success. Competition allows a company to improve itself and prove its prowess to its customers. However, when a competitor is able to provide the service at a much reduced cost, problems will arise.

Based on the Miles and Snow strategy typology, Dollar Tree would be categorized as a prospector and an analyzer. Dollar Tree initially started off as a prospector when it was created as an off-shoot of the retail chain K &K Toys (Parnell, 2014). Prospectors focus on intrapreneurship, which involves the creation of new business ventures within an existing organization (Parnell, 2014). When K & K Toys was divested in 1991, it was done so in order to focus their energies on developing the concept of the dollar store, which in turn gave them the first mover advantage for being first in that particular market (Parnell, 2014). Just as prospector companies places priority on new product and service development to meet the changing needs and
Valve Corporation is an entertainment software and technology company. It is a very successful business that develops video games and is based in Bellevue, Washington. Valve came to be in 1996, when Gabe Newell and Mike Harrington left Microsoft and founded Valve. Organisational Culture is a problem that has risen through the ‘no manager’ policy. With people from diverse places and who share different beliefs, organisational culture is very serious. The concept of organisational culture emerged in the early 1980s as a topic of major concern to administrators and researchers in higher education (Ramachandran & Chong & Ismail, 2011). It is a system of shared assumptions, values, and beliefs, which governs how people behave in the organisations. These shared values have a strong influence on the people in the organisation and dictate how they dress, act, and perform their jobs (Study.com, n.d.). Employee Stress & Productivity and Diversity in the Workplace are two elements that have derived from Organisational Culture. This report will be addressing the two issues and how to solve the issues at hand.

Burger King delivers value to their customers through their products, prices, and place and promotion strategies - (“BK doesn’t just promise value, they actually deliver value”). Burger king has been in existence for 60 years and is growing rapidly in many other countries. Burger King delivers quality, great tasting food which satisfies ones need or wants and captures the value of customers even before the first purchase is made. Burger King has products very unique from other competitors such as KFC and McDonalds. The difference is that Burger King does not limit their customers in terms of what they eat. For example, when I spoke to a customer also big fan of Burger King, he mentioned that the sauces are left public for the customer to decide on which sauce to have rather than giving the customer one kind of sauce such as McDonalds and KFC. The cold beverage is also self-help service in which customers can help themselves to a bottomless drink. This way the customer feels free to choose what satisfies the need or want.
The major issues facing the company comprises of there being multiple businesses with different demands. There are separate levels of performance and success as well as growth chances for each of the sector and the firm needs to tackle with issues in each of these divisions (Dube, J.P., 2004).
Wal-Mart and Target are two similar global corporations. If one asks each of these store’s customers why they shop there, somewhere in their answer one will find them saying that they can find everything. The difference between these two corporations is their mission, marketing, and quality. Each of these stores are looking to offer a different experience despite selling similar goods.

Value chains are essential elements of successful businesses, and how to gain a competitive advantage by analyzing them is the most important aspect. In Porter’s value-chain model, he points out that there are two types of business activities: primary activities, which include inbound logistics, operations, outbound logistics, marketing, sales and service; and support activities, which include procurement, technology development, human resources management, and firm infrastructure. In order to gain an edge, companies should focus on these activities to improve or create products that will satisfy their customers.
Everyone usually does errands at least once in their week. This chore can revolve around groceries, buying necessities for kids, other family members, and more commonly- ourselves. It is almost unavoidable to not have anything you will need to replenish upon. When it comes to this factor, we all have our most desired convenience store. There are plenty of places out there that supply the same products and produce, however; the prices differ between each company and location. At the end of the day, the top stores that people rely on for majority of their basic necessities are Target and Walmart. Some shoppers argue that Walmart is a cheaper alternative; although, Target is an efficient place for shopping because of their wide variety of products, full range of designs to suit all, and satisfaction in quality.
