The project shock indicates to the team members that the processes that had been initially put in place were not convincing enough to the administrative organ of this large European company. Therefore, there is a need to do a thorough audit to some of the premises and preposition that might not have resonated with the stakeholders of the organization. Within the discussions that were going on prior to the move of this company to consolodate its chains, there might have been some ideas that the company administration had given to defend the current market inclination of the company. It is important to review these ideas so as to be prepared to debunk the strategies that the company is currently using to make market choices. One thing that is worthnoting is the that the tenure of the team members is dependent on their ability to perform and deliver.
The move both this European company indicates failure in the part of the team. Therefore, the sole purpose of convincing the managerial team not to expand its chain was not effectively executed based on the results of their work. It therefore means that the tenure of the client team members is in jeopardy and faces the risk of losing their tenure. It is important not to remember that the any competitive enterprise relies heavily on results which means that failure to deliver positive results affects the original design of the a given enterprise. In this case there is a need to adopt a more robust client member team that is able to use all the marketing tools in its exposure to influence the actions of this European chain company. This team has to bear in mind that there is already a new IT system in place and therefore the argument that they should use to support their recommendations should be geared towards altering this new IT system.
For the team to be able to make sure that their project progresses to conclusion is that they must be flexible enough. This would mean that the team does not have to necessarily arrive at the optimal result of encouraging the company not to expand its chains in Europe. The team has to be flexible enough to take up a sub-optimal measure that includes some of the elements of their original project. One thing that is worthnoting is that the team representing the European firm might also have its own targets and objectives. This would mean that the team would not be will to give up some of the elements that they believe are pivotal in ensuring favorable competence of their current company. Therefore, if the team is going to see the conclusion of their project they have to understand that they do not have to necessary settle for the optimal object that they have. They should be prepared to give up some of the ideas that they might be having regarding the operation strategy of this European firm. Finally, the already existent chain stores in various countries in Europe have administrators. All these administrators should be involved in the decision making process because they understand the advantages the company derives by having these chains in other countries. This European chain might benefited from lower taxes in some European countries therefore being motivated to report most of its profits in host nations and not in its parent country.
