what other assets do you think GE brings to the table that makes it an attractive joint-venture partner?
Respond to each post separately in 2 or more paragraphs and include references.5. In addition to its reputation for being a good partner, what other assets do you think GE brings to the table that makes it an attractive joint-venture partner? GE (General Electric) used to exist as an organization with a dated philosophy in entering foreign markets because joint ventures were never an option and the company wanted sole acquisition of a market (Hill, 2013). Since the early 2000s, that philosophy has changed which has opened up the firm to a variety of foreign markets they only could dream of entering. Reasons for opening up for joint ventures for GE were to avoid overpaying in an acquisition, to gain knowledge of unknown foreign markets and to create networks politically and economically (Hill, 2013). Although there have been a few mishaps along the way such as the survival of a stock crash in 2009 (Marcial, 2012) and other stock market issues, GE has been able to create substantial market value that has caused it to become an attractive joint venture for many potential and current partners. Investment firm analyst Ben Elias has stated that GE is now better positioned for growth and profitability than it has been in the last four years and that the energy, industrial and transportation units of the firm is well built and positioned efficiently (Marcial, 2012. p.1). GE earnings in 2012 alone have accelerated greatly and have created positive sustainable trends in their aviation, healthcare and transportation units (Marcial, 2012). GEs profit forecast in 2012 estimated about $152 billion in shares whose stock offers a potential three to five year total return. Compared to other US companies, GE offers attractive value with stock trading below the essential value of its assets (Marcial, 2012). When GE set out to open up joint ventures, one of its missions was to gain more knowledge and it is because of the extensive know how and knowledge of local markets, potential partners knew they could also benefit from this knowledge through a partnership. GE uses management techniques shown its portfolio that explains the company infrastructure through four strategic imperatives: (1) superior technology (2) enhancing customer services and analytics (3) leading in growth markets (4) simple and competitive cost structure (Zhang, 2012). GE also has five leading qualities that drive its company to success through1. Becoming an Infrastructure leader with a smaller financial services divisionGE is currently the largest and most profitable infrastructure company in the world (Zhang, 2012).2. GE has a commitment in allocating capital through balance and discipline (Zhang, 2012).3. GE has increased investments in organic growth with a focus in global expansion4. GE has built great customer relationships based on an outcomes oriented model.5. GE has been positioned in big productivity drivers such as gas, advanced manufacturing, and software and analytics.Partners and potential partners are well aware of GEs knowledge, profit margins and extreme areas of growth which has garnered GE attention worldwide as a leading organization in the global market.
