Description
Summary:The purpose of this study is to examine the features and characteristics of world's successful corporation and to investigate whether Malaysian companies would also be able to progress to such organization. According to Michael Porter " A worldclass corporation is an organization which had acquired the position of excellence in its given business. This position is achieved through excellence product, loyal and satisfied customers and good strategic partnerships with suppliers and collaborations. These attributes are the result of careful and well-implemented corporate strategies formulated and implemented by the organization. It is in within this framework that this thesis is aimed in particular to trace out whether Malaysian companies would also be world-class organization. Our investigation through casework methodology did indicate that Malaysian companies are moving in the right direction. While they are moving at a slow place, their efforts of becoming world-class corporation will not be a mere rhetoric.
