Dell makes a great company to study because of their fantastic performance, their constant innovation and re-invention and their often written about business strategy.

An interesting article recently appeared in FORTUNE Magazine called "Dell's Midlife Crisis".

Hello Class.

Each week we will share some ideas about strategic management using this blog.

Each of you will become "bloggers". To do this, you must send me an email with your preferred Email address it it. I will send you an invitation to this Email address which will give you instructions on how to begin blogging. Only class members may post to this blog.

Snipettes can be anything that you have read somewhere that you think is related to Strategic Management as is worthy of discussion. Remember, this is a blog that is available to anyone on the web. You should honor copyright laws and post only YOUR ideas. If you would like class members to be able to review the article or site you are discussing ADD a LINK to the blog post.

We will most likely develop a pattern of companies and subjects we discuss.

If you have questions, submit via WebCT, call me or lets discuss in class.

Best Regards,

Gene A. Wright
