Nick Roy 1-4 Video Check-in MBA-540-Q1716 Org Strategy in Global Env 23TW1 Professor Cedric Alford February 18, 2024 I am choosing United Parcel Service (UPS) as my selected company. Looking over the final project rubric, I appear to have a good understanding of what is expected for this final project. I will be taking on the role of vice president of strategy and operations, and I am supposed to create a power point presentation of about 18-20 slides presenting an analysis of the business environment and where it will be in the next 5 years. I understand that milestone 1, 2, and 3 I will be compiling those slides into the final presentation. Questions: 1. Am I narrating this presentation or is this just the PowerPoint slides. 2. Is there a word count for the speaker notes 3. Will there be a reference slide? External influence: The main external influence that could be a significant factor for UPS's growth would be the global freight slowdown. We already seen an impact made by the labor talks as UPS lost 1 million packages per day because of it. It was significant enough for UPS to adjust their 2023 revenue and profitability forecasts. Will UPS have to do the same for the global freight slowdown, or will focusing more on the U.S. domestic market help to prevent that? Internal influence: The acquisition of Roadie. Roadie's leading technology platform, combined with UPS's current suite of products and services, will open doors for new growth opportunities. It is expected that Roadie's technology platform will provide new opportunities to improve existing, and potentially add additional, UPS small package capabilities thus increasing the package volume. With small businesses being the engine that keeps the economy running, and courier companies keeping the engine of commerce moving, there are tremendous opportunities for small business and e-commerce to capture this segment of the market.
