This document discusses strategies for the grocery chain Super G to expand its business. It recommends that Super G focus on acquiring larger stores that generate over $1 million in annual sales to benefit from economies of scale.

Specifically, the document analyzes the markets in Atlantic City and Bakersfield, concluding that Super G should acquire Big Value Stores to gain a 10% market share in Atlantic City, but avoid Pacific Grant due to some stores having less than $1 million in annual sales, instead focusing on entering the open Bakersfield market.

The Missouri No Compromise
This document summarizes a presentation given at the University of Louisville Ali Center discussing how social change was achieved rapidly at the University of Missouri through protests by the football team. It outlines that two groups at Mizzou, students experiencing racism and athletes wanting payment, were both suffering within the existing unfair oligarchic system. The football team realized their indispensability to the university and used that leverage to demand a specific change - firing the university president - in support of the student protests, achieving results within 36 hours. The document suggests this shows a new paradigm for social change, where groups leverage their position within unfair systems to demand targeted reforms.

Organizational Implications of a Declaration for Human Rights in Sports
This document discusses the organizational implications of implementing a Declaration of Human Rights in sport. It notes that while the concept is sound, putting it into practice faces challenges. Grassroots sport organizations may not have the ability or willingness to implement new policies without support. The document examines lessons from implementing children's rights and anti-harassment policies, finding issues with lack of awareness, complex information, and the need for cultural change, training, and guidance. It also discusses ensuring cultural sensitivity, clear leadership, engaging stakeholders, and utilizing existing networks to successfully implement human rights standards globally in a way that considers local realities.
