Anne M. Mulcahy

He doesn't give his opponent anything. He reacts in a thoughtful manner and he always knows his next move. He's very strategic.

Greg Foreman

Our direct-to-customer business results were mixed, but we think the strategic direction initiated in 1999 has Federated well positioned to capitalize on the potential of this segment, particularly in the rapidly growing e-commerce arena.

James Zimmerman

Our earnings growth and cash flow continue to be significant, driven by the worldwide demand for high-quality career education. Our track record of growth and innovation, coupled with our commitment to outstanding service delivery, has positioned us well, and we remain confident in our strategic direction.

John Larson

In the three years that Myles has been at the helm of the company he has done an outstanding job at both a strategic and operational level ... However, I am pleased to say that his experience and advice will not be lost to the group as Myles has been invited to remain on the board of the Standard Bank group as a non-executive director.

Derek Cooper

There were mountains of environmental-impact documents and studies, but they were never really considered. The answer is always, 'This project is strategic. Technology will solve these problems.

Karl Inderfurth

No segment of society is more strategic and in more in need of prayer than pastors and their families, ... They urgently and desperately need our love, encouragement and earnest prayers.

Bill Bright

The IEA organizing strategic reserves from Europe has helped to calm the market. A couple of refineries have restarted and a couple more are preparing to resume output soon. With the official end to the driving season in the U.S., sentimentally people think that demand is going to ease.

Veronica Smart

As CBS recently proved with the live streaming of the NCAA tournament, content is the once and forever king. So it's entirely strategic and smart for ABC and other networks to show their best programs on multiple platforms.

John Rash

They are the most natural strategic buyer for these events because of their strength in design engineering and manufacturing, but I don't think they'd have interest in buying shows that are declining.

Thomas Kemp

Co-operation is very important for both practical needs and strategic development. Therefore, the government of HKSAR attaches great importance to co-operation and exchanges with Shenzhen.

Rafael Hui

Our research also confirms that based on recent enterprise sales of strategic Transportation Management solutions, Manhattan Associates is the current leader for complex transportation projects. Sales over the last 18-24 months indicate that they continue to gain market share and have attracted enterprises looking for new supply chain innovations.

Beth Enslow

With damage to crude production, releasing oil from the strategic reserve would be a real buffer and could alleviate the situation.

Tor Kartevold

Ray's corporate IP and legal experience will add tremendous value to the firm both nationally and in Chicago. His addition to our firm furthers our strategic plan to expand the breadth and depth of our practice areas.

James Malackowski

From a strategic perspective, it's one of the important disciplines that the firm wants to have in its fixed-income offering.

Joe Mcgrath

Over the last several months, we have thoroughly weighed strategic alternatives for our Northern Department Store Group.

Brad Martin

It depends on the day you ask him. I think he's come to terms with the physical toll racing in every event takes on him and plans on being more strategic. But then I've also heard Bode say in passing he's going to ski every race.

Phil Mcnichol

It underscores the importance for agencies to reflect in sufficient detail, through their exhibit 300 submissions, their activities and leadership in the area of health IT in relationship to implementation of presidential initiatives and the national strategic framework for health IT.

Mid-size enterprises that used these strategic sourcing techniques recorded more than four times greater procurement cost savings, better supply performance, and greater profitability than industry peers.

Tim Minahan

ODRM is becoming a critical component in the way companies reach customers and channels and educate their employees and strategic partners. These unique tool sets are replacing more costly, less convenient, and less effective forms of communication, and in many cases helping companies expand their reach in a way that was not previously feasible.

Paul Ritter

Bastion for forging relations with new strategic partners.

Rafael Ramirez

We have a strong confectionery business there at the moment, so this acquisition would represent a good strategic fit for us.

Jennifer Andrews

Gary T. Dicamillo

It's clearly BASF's strategic thinking not to give in and raise the price unless they get some information that justifies it.

Silke Stegemann

We were pleased with the opportunity to co-promote XIFAXAN, ... We are confident that XIFAXAN should serve as a major contributor to Salix's ongoing success. ALTANA has made the strategic decision to realign its efforts in the respiratory therapeutic area. Therefore, in order to focus our efforts, ALTANA and Salix have agreed to end their co-promotion activities.

George Cole

India and Cyprus represent old civilizations. Cyprus today has per capita income of over 20,000 dollars and stands as a strategic gateway to three continents. Cyprus' membership of EU offers an opportunity to India to offer goods and services to not only Cyprus but other EU countries as well. Together, our two countries can join hands to increase areas of cooperation in core competence.

Anand Sharma

Kroger is making a superb strategic decision to move to the Everyday Living category because the brand has much more cachet. The path to higher consumer satisfaction and profitability is through a bigger and better portfolio of private brands.

Burt Flickinger Iii

We want the strategic partners to improve our shareholders' structure, capital is not the main concern.

Yang Chao

[The response had to be immediate.] Straight after taking over, we just started pulling costs out, ... We pulled out a little over £400 million, and that was just to stay alive. It wasn't very strategic, we just saw that the ship was taking on water, so we said 'let's start baling and not get too refined about which cabin we do first'.

Tom Glocer

Interethnic and spiritual accord is our strategic resource, the basis for progress of our society and state.

Nursultan Nazarbayev

Given the expected efficiencies of the new processing floor at Dakota City and the anticipated improvements in capacity utilization, we believe this is the right strategic decision. The consolidation will enhance the performance of our beef business, both now during this time of challenging market conditions and later when these conditions improve.

Noel White

The greatest strategic disaster in United States history.

Valerie Plame

We think we have made some very strategic, very smart bets.

Garry Betty

BMW is a bigger company than Porsche, and Rover is a smaller company than Volkswagen, ... and even then it diverted too many strategic resources from BMW.

Garel Rhys

Most companies already have manufacturing in China, and you don't want all your eggs in one basket. That's the strategic mentality we're seeing more often than not across industries.

Frederick Burke

There's not enough natural gas to substitute for heating oil. So this will help support crude oil prices. What we need is not (crude) oil but heating oil and natural gas. Unfortunately, there's no strategic reserves for them.

Gordon Kwan

There are a lot of question marks about the strategic direction that they are going in. Is this still a sale or not?

Bob Pooler

The government's responsibility is to guarantee investment and production capacities. The independence in power supply of our country is a strategic stake for France.

Dominique De Villepin

But the significance of deepening of the strategic partnership between the two democracies goes far beyond commercial terms.

Ron Somers

They need to do better than what is going on to make a dent in the fear that is affecting a million people in the Port-au-Prince area. We don't want them to kill anyone. But we want them to do strategic operations to get the criminals out.

Andy Apaid

It's a 25 percent premium to the sector average, which is the normal strategic premium that trade buyers would pay.

Harald Gruber

We are applauding the plan for adopting key strategic initiatives that will create a lot of shareholder value. I am not going to run a proxy contest.

Bill Ackman

On paper, there is a good strategic fit between these two companies. The challenge, as always, is execution.

Bertrand Bidaud

I think the MAC has to earn respect. I don't think we've been very strategic. The league has recognized we have to do better.

Paul Krebs

It's easy to recognize that existing conditions cannot handle the traffic that will be created by this development. Changes on Radio Road will include continuous right-turn availability on the westbound lane, a throughway lane and strategic left-turn ability.

Andrew Griffin

Our global and national strategic objectives continue to move toward joint and coalition cooperation and collaboration and from traditional border defense to forward-deployed coalition operations.

Tom Burbage

Clark Quintin

The hurricane has been upgraded to a four, similar to Katrina, so that is preying on people's minds particularly if it hits areas with some key strategic oil facilities.

Kamal Sharma

It's more of a strategic golf course than a penal golf course. It's all about managing yourself.

Steve Smyers

Ken Austin

It is a strategic location, in the heart of the city.

Kekoo Colah

That was one of our strategic goals for this year.

Shannon Hurst

Buyout firms are by no means the only game in town. They will continue to face competition from strategic buyers.

James Douglas

Our core strength as a company has always been a culture based on listening to our clients. We think of ourselves as a partner rather than a vendor. For example, we continuously look to our clients for feedback on our strategic development initiatives. The end result is a product suite that evolves with our clients' businesses.

Tom Gavin

We are very excited to begin production on this infomercial, as it represents a critical step in increasing the exposure of our flagship product to consumers. By educating the public on the benefits of our Heart Smart System(TM) through a strategic direct marketing plan, we are confident in our ability to create greater demand for our proprietary products and drive future sales.

Walter Lambert

The two sides will need to address their `strategic suspicions,'.

Shi Yinhong

As stand-alone, world-renowned companies with leading market positions and outstanding employees, we believe these businesses will be better able to enhance their strategic positions, serve their customers and create value for their shareholders.

Brandon Davis

The restructuring Jim is setting into place is more than the usual shuffling of corporate titles and offices that often accompanies changes at the top. It is a strategic reorganization that focuses our senior-level talent on our top business goals.

Gerald Greenwald

They've got $3.6 billion in pension and healthcare liabilities. The deal would make sense from a strategic point of view, but there are a lot of issues that would need to be addressed. It would attract pretty thorough scrutiny from the government.

Chris Olin

I'm a positional player. That means you are a more strategic kind of person who plans and plays slow games.

Nelly Estrada

It offers access to civilian nuclear energy, it protects your strategic program and it mainstreams India. India couldn't have hoped for a better deal.

This investment bid is being made as part of the Boston Globe's long-term strategic plan to solidify its position as the leading news and advertising media in New England.

Janet Robinson

We want to make sure Mary has the full benefit of Larry's creativity and strategic thinking. Our global marketing program is one of the critical drivers of our business. A seamless transition -- one that remains sharply focused on our customers -- is essential to our continued momentum.

Mike Roberts

They want strategic marketing partners that will help them grow their business. Marketing Intelligence will be a partner and consultant to advertisers that will have a direct impact on their bottom lines.

Michael Gratz

Landmark has always had a tremendous commitment to promoting independent film. Having Mercury as such an important and strategic ally in our continued efforts will immediately create opportunities essential to the continued growth and success of independent film.

Todd Wagner

Vodafone is excited by the enormous possibilities that are emerging with IP Multimedia. IMS is going to play a strategic role in our future service delivery. We intend to pilot the next generation of services using this technology and will start interoperability testing with other operators as soon as possible.

Detlef Schultz

We also have a strong product pipeline to help us meet our strategic growth objectives, including several exciting, new products that we plan to introduce this year. Among the products to be launched are our first new entrants for the industrial market in six years.

Chris Killingstad

With respect to cash, I'd like to make one point. Unless we choose to raise cash to further strengthen our balance sheet or for strategic flexibility, we have no reason to do so.

Warren Jenson

While it is clear India wants to be America's friend and strategic partner, it is less obvious whether the U.S. wants to be India's friend or merely capitalize on this country's growing geopolitical importance and abundant market opportunities.

Brahma Chellaney

We value their strategic advice.

Thomas Mclain

We have a variety of different strategic alternatives. We fundamentally believe that there is a lot of growth opportunity in the energy market, particularly associated with electronic trading of energy product.

Craig Donohue

When we opened our office in 2000, we made a strategic decision to expand with attorneys who could serve our regional, national and international client base. Stephen exemplifies that dedication and scope. It's been a privilege working with Stephen, and we're delighted he's chosen to make a long-term commitment to the firm as a shareholder.

David Palmer

China's iron and steel industry has entered an important stage of strategic restructuring, which can help solve a series of problems in the industry.

Xie Qihua

Candidates are strategic about their decision to run. I'm sure there are people in the city of Murfreesboro, as vibrant as it is, who care about politics and would like to be mayor. They've just decided this isn't the right time to run.

John Geer

I am 100 percent committed to the strategic vision that drove Steve Case and Jerry Levin to fashion the merger of AOL Time Warner in the first instance.

Richard Parsons

The Company has faced many challenges over the last 12 months. I continue to work closely with the Senior Management team and our Board of Directors in reviewing the Company's assets, products, business lines, and strategic position to determine the most effective steps toward enhancing shareholder value.

Bob Butchofsky

We've made some investments in the area, so we believe it's a very strategic property and want to see it developed properly. It will be something thousands of people drive by every day.

Darick Clark

That integration is extremely important for our cost roadmap but also for our strategic positioning against our competitors like the New York Stock Exchange.

Chris Concannon

We're confident that once Congress has all the facts, they will strongly endorse an agreement that will help cement a new and important strategic partnership between the United States and India.

Dan Christman

Our strategic evolution has established Monsanto as the leading innovator in agricultural seeds and technology, ... The financial discipline we have exercised has also allowed us to establish a solid foundation which is poised for growth in the years ahead.

Terry Crews

It would be a great financial risk for China to buy oil at the international market for its strategic reserve program as the current global oil price has been fluctuating at a high level.

Zhang Guobao

If you look at our ERG towns' Strategic School Profiles, you see we are spending less on out-of-district placements than any other school district in our educational reference group.

Chet Bialicki

Our strategic realignment towards innovation and growth has brought a sustained improvement in the Bayer group's earning power.

Werner Wenning

IT is the strategic weapon for the battle of the customer.

James Canton

We are pleased to be resuming our long and productive partnership with the people and the state of Libya in this strategic asset. This agreement provides a strong basis for us to invest in our aligned goals for increased reserves and production, and in the training and development of our Libyan work force.

Jim Mulva

The effects of Katrina will be felt throughout the economy, reducing demand and keeping a lid on energy prices. The federal government is ready to release barrels from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve and there is significant help coming from abroad.

Michael Fitzpatrick

This is considered a crime scene, so all the evidence is being preserved. There's no entry into these strategic areas and in essence, yes, if a crime has occurred this will be very, very important.

Jim Wolf

A strategic decision to align ourselves with the global traveler.

Marilyn Carlson Nelson

The takeover would make strategic sense.

Gert Biesmans

The race is on [between technology companies] to get a complete XML solution stack in place and form those strategic partnerships with big vendors in each industry that help you standardize the doc formats. Once you've got that, you are in a good position to start driving the standard because you've got the big players.

Jeremy Burton

We've made a strategic investment in our joint resources with NVIDIA and developed our applications to take full advantage of the NVIDIA GPU, providing our customers the performance and features required to accelerate HD production.

Simon Hayhurst

An immediate, overpowering, almost mystic sense of relief took shape within me. I felt suddenly sure everything was going to be all right. This was something quite apart from even the most cursory reflection upon strategic implications involved.

Anthony Powell

We have to be more strategic in the distribution.

David Satcher

While Mike Snyder is focusing on strategic growth initiatives, John will provide the leadership needed to continue to improve the day-to-day customer experience and operational efficiencies in ADT North America. We believe this is the structure needed to build on the power of the ADT brand.

Dave Robinson

They've had a strategic setback. Their old growth model seems to have fallen by the wayside because life science has fallen by the wayside. They haven't come up with a great strategy.

William Young

The wind resource in the United States is comparable to the oil resource in Saudi Arabia. It's a major strategic national resource we should be making every effort to develop.

Tom Gray

Adidas has really put together a very strategic package for the World Cup. That's going to be insane for Nike to try and outsell them.

John Horan

There had been countless overtures prior to this particular publisher. But others finally convinced him that Dell was at a strategic point in the business, and this would be an opportunity to further the brand. Personally, he wouldn't have chosen to do it. It was difficult for him. He is singularly focused on the success of the business.

Michelle Moore

It was a war that didn't have to be fought, it was a strategic blunder, it was poorly executed, poorly designed and right now, after two years, we still don't have a winning strategy.

General Wesley Clark

St. Lucia is a perfect destination for Westin's strategic Caribbean expansion. This resort will provide the perfect venue for a unique and memorable experience for our guests where they can relax, refresh and have a renewed outlook.

Sue Brush

Quantum's military business and our strategic initiatives in hybrids continue to gain momentum.

Alan Niedzwiecki

It makes great strategic sense.

Jim Lowell

After many years with the company as a shareholder and board member, I am looking forward to guiding the company's strategic initiatives.

Robert Katz

The new strategic plan has a fatal flaw and that is the cost - $500 million.

Joseph Clark

I don't see a strategic buyer. It doesn't make sense for HP to buy Kodak.

Shannon Cross

We're beyond meetings at this point and into strategic planning and development.

Bob Venero

Boni has been instrumental in leading the development of our strategic plan, and I am excited by the vision and leadership she will bring to our advertising sales efforts.

John Cruickshank

This is a decisive move that accelerates our strategy and positions us to win by offering even greater value to our customers and partners. In addition to the clear strategic benefits of combining two highly complementary organizations and product families, we can create substantial shareowner value through significant cost-structure improvements and access to new growth opportunities.

Carly Fiorina

Utah entrepreneurs are demonstrating the strength of our economy and the innovative strategic thinking found in Utah.

John Richards

I don't think we owe anything more to the Iraqi people, to be blunt. We owe it to our own troops and our own strategic interests.

Michael O'hanlon

We will operate a profitable network of over 40 routes, with a priority to strategic routes.

Neil Burrows

By terminating the acquisition, we now have available the $600 million for other strategic investments and acquisitions, .

Leonard Riggio

At the forefront of GE's 2006 strategic plan is the goal to further promote growth, employment, transfer of knowledge and technology across the Middle East. Building on the successes of 2005 in the region, we will explore development opportunities in these key areas.

Jeffrey Immelt

This is an important step for the National Archives to achieve its goal of becoming an archive without walls. Our new strategic plan emphasizes the importance of providing access to records anytime, anywhere.

Allen Weinstein

We have a tremendous opportunity to develop and grow our presence in the European institutional marketplace. Mark's 20 years of investment product experience and proven expertise in strategic planning and implementation will be integral in bringing to this audience the same asset management and client service solutions that have made Evergreen remarkably successful in the U.S.

Patrick O'brien

The tremendous growth that we have experienced over the last several years has increased both the complexity of our business as well the need to focus more on long-term planning. Mr. McCourt's assumption of leadership of the day-to-day business will allow me to focus on the long-term strategic challenges facing our business.

Jim Fletcher

This transaction is an excellent strategic fit for both companies. Our goal is to build a stronger, more competitive institution, while presenting exciting opportunities for employees, customers and shareholders alike.

Rick Waugh

The unions made it clear they are willing to work with us. When we... develop a strategic initiative, the unions will be the first to know what the plan is and how they will be able to help. I am extremely optimistic we will get through these economic challenges.

Kevin M. Spiegel

Such an agreement and strategic dialogue mechanism will solidify the Sino-EU comprehensive strategic partnership and lead to substantial projects and results.

Shen Jiru

Last year, we committed to a strategic review of our Brazilian business. We made good on that commitment, and this transaction is the result.

Leo Kiely

Prime Minister Blair has long felt -- he certainly felt after September 11 -- that there was no moral or strategic advantage to be gained by artificial distance from the U.S.

Dana Allin

When you are 2-10 you can't blame the coaching staff for going in a different direction. We played different people ... it was simply strategic and we will do that the rest of the year.

Patrick Knapp

Glenn is very strategic, and I think we were very fortunate to hire someone with his broad experience in the entire chemical enterprise. He's a diplomat, he's smart, he's an excellent manager, he gets along extremely well with our members in governance, and he knows his way around the halls of Congress and the executive branch.

Madeleine Jacobs

We're looking for a strategic communications partner.

Body Shop

This agreement will turn a non-strategic investment into cash that we can use to pay down debt.

C. Michael Armstrong

We're fighting now, changing position. We aren't exactly sure where their units are or ours either. The Serbs are attacking along the border between two of our (operational) zones. ... They want to come between these two zones. It's an important point for them, a strategic attack.

Naim Bardiqi

Most of our businesses performed exceptionally well in spite of higher raw material costs and weak European currencies, with 11 of 18 strategic business units delivering double digit earnings growth.

Charles Holliday Jr

From a strategic point of view it's a good deal. The reason I don't say a very good deal is because 26.50 is a full price.

Sigrid Baas

Kinross' exciting growth profile is evidence of our strategic objective of increasing cash flow and net asset value for shareholders. Kinross is driving forward with growth through the expansion of existing facilities. We will then use strategic acquisitions to upgrade our portfolio of mines.

Tye Burt

Achieving these goals will create shareholder value and allow us to determine the best strategic direction for the company.

Robert Mcgehee

We can no longer carry the burden of this underperforming product line. So we're now exploring other strategic options including the sale of our floor care business.

Ralph Hake

Almost a third of the total investment will come from our internal capital, with the rest financed by bank loans or other sources such as absorbing new strategic investors.

Wang Yi

We would like to better understand the market before making any strategic moves. That's why we prefer to establish a representative office first rather than setting up a joint-venture, although the latter choice would bring about more speedy expansion.

Brian O'hara

At a company like Dell, it's a strategic variable. Their strategy is to have the best product at the best price. But in order to have this, the supply chain must be competitive. Everybody [at Dell] is trying to reduce costs, increase flexibility, reduce inventory and get their cash more quickly. All of these drive financial performance.

Dan Hawthoff

We're confident that AltaVista's decision to reinforce its strategic focus on search, in tandem with its investments to help increase market share and expedite its timeline to profitability, will significantly accelerate our goal to make AltaVista the leading search portal for both consumers and enterprises.

Rod Schrock

We're going to continue to run this business as well as we can going forward, ... We are reviewing our strategic options, and in the current planning process we're counting on break-even results in 2003.

Keith Sherin

The acquisition makes great strategic sense for FedEx and it will allow us to operate as a foreign wholly owned enterprise. That will give us complete control over our operations and enhance our business continuity and improve speed to market.

David Cunningham

We are optimistic about cooperation between Chinese banks and foreign strategic investors because the banks are committed to reform.

Ryan Tsang

It's really to create a currency that they can use for acquisitions. Goldman is looking at a number of strategic ways for them to expand into different product areas.

Gary Goldstein

Partnering is the air we need to breathe. A large network of strategic alliances built from customers, suppliers, research partners and even competitors contributes more than revenues. Alliances also help a company access and assimilate complex knowledge from disparate sources.

Andrea Cuomo

But this filing will give us the freedom to operate the office as we wish, such as taking limited deposits, until it makes strategic sense to open a full-service branch.

Scott Bauer

If Iraq goes through with this it could push prices back to $35-$37 for Brent in which case the U.S. might have to step in and release more of their strategic reserves.

Leo Drollas

While our customers can continue to expect the same great service they have always received from Kohl's, our strategic alliance with Chase will provide us with additional operational and marketing capabilities to support our continued growth.

Larry Montgomery

Networked controllers, and networked storage controllers together with supporting software, will become the strategic platform for application-aware storage.

John Mcarthur

Looking ahead, our focus will remain on accelerating sales growth and enhancing shareholder value by implementing the record number of new product introductions and leveraging the strategic acquisitions initiated this year.

Jim Hackett

Right now, ... Europe is like a once-fit top athlete who has fallen out of shape. Instead of taking action, the athlete keeps writing new strategic plans on how to get back into shape: 'I could go running, I could go swimming,' and so on. Sometimes it feels that the European logic is: 'When I'm in better shape, I will start exercising.' .

Pekka Himanen

The acquisition of B.C. Moore's represents a logical next step for us following our successful integration of Peebles. It significantly enhances the strategic and geographic development of our business, improves our competitive position, and presents us with a compelling opportunity for increased sales and earnings.

Jim Scarborough

We believe that being positioned in the SSL VPN visionary quadrant is a testament to the core capabilities of Citrix and recognition of the strategic market position that Citrix is taking in this high growth market.

Chris Norton

Strategic planning for the future is the most hopeful indication of our increasing social intelligence.

William Hastie

It's real important in the event like the power outage, a snowstorm, a tornado, a flood or anything like that to where it's difficult to get emergency personnel to where they need to go. We need to have a command center in operation so we can all talk and put together a strategic plan that is the most efficient and safest and try to account for all the citizens of Windsor the best that we can.

Terry Walker

We feel positive and think the momentum is on our side that strategic logic [of this merger] will be appreciated. But we will likely not know tomorrow.

Arch Currid

This match could have gone either way. Richardson came through in many points with fine overheads but not enough against a good, strategic match by Cadillac.

Margaret Ruemenapp

We have not had a strategic road map with clear expectations for the membership.

Charlotte Westerhaus

We can do it. The beauty of the moving line is that it's a real-life threat to every one of our partners, including our internal partners such as manufacturing. Our partners must be ready with parts, have strategic inventory on hand and ensure quality is impeccable so that there's never a delay on the line.

Danny Diperna

Energy security is top of the agenda for oil-importing nations, efforts are made to diversify the source of oil supplies and build strategic petroleum reserves.

Bharat Sheth

I love Akron's event. There's no doubt that they've used a strategic approach to what the event stands for: community, arts, celebration and the New Year. When all the components are running full tilt, it's a successful event.

Dave Sullivan

We're returning to the structure we had at the beginning of the first term. All that changes is that the management of the day-to-day policy process will be put under Joel. Karl will keep the high-yield strategic role that he's always had.

Nicolle Wallace

The facilities don't allow us to achieve our mission or strategic plan fully in our current state.

Daniel Klett

UPAF's strategic advisory committee did a lot for the ballet, more than an infusion of money would have.

Christine Harris

This visit is not just for backslapping. This is to confirm again that Russia is taking the course of a strategic relationship with India. ... India is a country of the future and Russia understands that.

Alexei Malashenko

Apart from overseas investors, we will also invite qualified domestic strategic investors as partners.

Tang Shuangning

We worked with SAC [Strategic Air Command] helping them direct bombing missions.

John Rowan

Our strategic plan calls for Canada to be a world leading alpine racing country by 2010. With significantly increased human, technical and financial resources, the intent is to have all our athletes be the best prepared to race ever at an Olympic Games.

Max Gartner

The valuation was good and so was the investor, so it became a smart strategic decision to take the money. It's always good to have a well-stocked war chest.

Greg Ballard

As much as this isn't the best strategic thing to do, it's there and it's the law of South Dakota now. We'll defend our position now – which is to oppose abortion.

Daniel Mcconchie

We've made excellent progress toward achieving our strategic objectives during our first full year since the leveraged buyout that took place in late October 2004.

Tom Stephens

Our new strategic plan emphasizes the importance of providing access to records anytime, anywhere. This is one of many initiatives that we are launching to make our goal a reality.

Allen Weinstein

The decision how and when to invest in R&D in China is a strategic choice. By investing more heavily and in more complex areas of R&D in China, an MPC can signal its commitment to the Chinese market and strengthen relationships with key opinion leaders and officials there -- thus increasing its chances of thriving in the health care market now taking shape in China.

John Wong

This is an area of strategic focus for TI, and we were very pleased with the progress in 1999.

Bill Aylesworth

This proposed merger and acquisition is strategic and consistent with our priority agenda of transforming our consumer banking franchise. It augurs well for the future as it gives us the lead in the long-anticipated next round of banking consolidation.

Nazir Razak

I'd like to improve the strategic relations with managers, enabling us to feature the talent attractive for national television. Another goal is to expand ourselves as a nationally recognized company.

Leon Margules

Guide the ongoing strategic expansion of this company, which will have a unique position in Europe.

Haim Saban

The board has to set the strategic vision for the organization.

Harry Carter

Attention to Spanish-language media keeps growing. Our connection with Hispanics cannot be duplicated. We determined this was an ideal time to explore strategic opportunities.

Ray Rodriguez

Since our inception, we've been firmly committed to listening to the voice of our clients. The Advisory Board is a valuable way to formalize the process of gathering feedback from several of our key customers. These strategic customers are all business leaders, and their input will be critical to ensuring that our products and services continually evolve to meet their needs and expectations.

Tim Welu

Both companies are evaluating a broad array of strategic options.

Steve Appleton

At this point, that really isn't important. It was a strategic decision made by prior management and we really can't answer for them.

Mike Sponseller

They're narrowing down and putting more tonnage into strategic locations. They don't have to ship it 200 miles to store it. We're just on the property.

Charles Garrett

Decisions on this matter should be made on the basis of the overall strategic and developmental objectives we want to attain through state-owned entities.
