A company with a static supply chain strategy will not be successful in the future.

Bill Read

We did a good job on the big guy and kept him out of the game. We fronted and backed him and hoped they didn't hit the threes. If they hit the threes, we would have had to change the strategy.

Terry Goodson

It helps to have a well thought out strategy on how to let the right people know that you're looking to buy or lease land. For me, having something on paper works best for initiating contact. A follow up call is also important, as is an offer to come meet with them.

Rex Wilcox

This partnership gives GE Consumer Finance the opportunity to execute on our growth strategy in Asia by gaining a significant platform from which to expand in Taiwan.

Yoshiaki Fujimori

(Grocery stores are) the other half of our growth strategy.

Matt Sheehan

This announcement propels Sybase into an exciting new phase of its e-Business strategy, allowing us to enter new markets and extend our solutions into high-growth industries.

John Chen

RIM is organized, from a management perspective, around carriers, and partners that succeed are able to work around those parameters. If RIM were to open up that strategy and have a channel and work with third parties, I imagine they would do it delicately in order to remain carrier-agnostic.

Dan Croft

It's very much in line with their strategy.

Bob Broadfoot

At this stage in the negotiation process, we believe decisions are being made not only on dollars and cents, but also ego, strategy and a broader view of the competitive landscape.

Joanne K. Wuensch

There was certainly shopper excitement early on, but it wasn't sustained. Clearly their Black Friday strategy worked. But their holiday was modestly disappointing as they went on.

Dan Popowics

Because of these uncertainties, the best strategy for now is to cut positions and seek new investment opportunities when shares fall to low levels.

Simon Wang

I think this is part of a strategy to make this case as difficult as possible to get to the Supreme Court.

Michael Greenberger

We feel as a long-term strategy having a portion of assets hedged is reasonable.

Paul Mcentire

At the end I told them how proud I was of them. We've been working on the strategy of how to use the clock and work it to your advantage and they did that tonight.

Debbie Casto

PeopleSoft is committed to the J.D. Edwards acquisition, ... We believe that the continued execution of our strategy will create significantly higher stockholder value.

Craig Conway

For the past two and a half years, our organization has focused on strategy. We had to know where we were going before we figured out how we would get there. When we asked Fred for strategic thinking, that is exactly what we got.

John Webb

Our go-to-market strategy continues to be effective as March Networks delivers yet another quarter of sequential growth. March Networks is focused on delivering innovative products, great service, and outstanding sales execution. These financial results are a direct result of that unwavering focus.

Peter Strom

You have to be fast on your feet and adaptive or else a strategy is useless.

Charles de Gaulle

Sentiment amongst institutional investors is very poor. There's a lot of uncertainty surrounding the new management's strategy.

Charlie Lanchester

We think it's important that whatever strategy is employed by the Coalition doesn't adversely affect our fellow sheriffs in New Mexico, Arizona or California.

Rick Glancey

I urge telecommunications regulators to develop a commercial strategy for delivering effective access to the continent.

Mark Shuttleworth

It's basically a defensive strategy. Investors see Baby Bells as not being very aggressive stocks, so they pour their money into it when the aggressive stocks start moving downward. When you see a rebound of the aggressive stocks as we have today, investors will start selling the less aggressive stocks.

Matt Janiga

It plays very well into our consumer strategy of trying to own as many customers as we can around the world so we can move them to various of our leisure offerings.

Joe Houssian

The vision and strategy they have gone for is very flawed.

Bill Mcdermott

This is consistent with our strategy to participate in the generic market for Pfizer products that become subject to generic competition.

Paul Fitzhenry

We are looking for just a general manager, ... He will set the strategy and the tone. We are just hiring one person.

Richard Peddie

Dynasty Warriors has become an essential part of the complete video game experience. As we step into this new era of gaming, we have see Xbox 360 as a powerful platform for what is already the world's most advanced melee combat engine. This coming March, video gamers can anticipate a masterful gaming experience rich in action and strategy that only the Dynasty Warriors series can provide.

Amos Ip

The current real estate market in Baton Rouge provided this opportunity, which is representative of our continuing strategy to invest in attractive millennium growth trends.

Anthony Moore

The market has lost confidence in the group's ability to deliver value by pursuing their current global strategy.

David Cumming

Thibault's an incredible strategic coach who has used this play before, and he does a fantastic job managing his team. I also liked that he kept it simple in overtime, didn't try to come up with a whole lot of strategy. He just let Connecticut play off its momentum.

Nancy Lieberman

If Martha goes to jail, this company will be hit but it won't fall apart, ... It could still compete in all the categories because it has a life of its own now and it's not as reliant upon Stewart to sustain financial viability. Sure, it will become a different company, with a different brand strategy, in need of a new leader.

Robert Passikoff

We accomplished a great deal in 2005, and we set the stage for a strong year in 2006. Our strategy to re-energize important franchises, while simultaneously developing new products, is working.

Jack Stahl

We already have cross-pollination between Microtel and Hawthorn franchisees. This was part of the integration strategy with Summerfield Suites and Hyatt Place. We're attracting some of the best franchisee companies. Just like guests, we want franchisees to be able to shop within the Hyatt family of brands. We want them to be able to develop at different price points.

Jim Abrahamson

Moving Alexandra to the franchise growth and performance team was a strategic move for Choice Hotels. By adding Alexandra, with her brand strategy background, to my team, we will be able to further build brand equity through strategic growth and additional focus on property level performance.

David Pepper

These numbers clearly demonstrate that enterprises recognize the need to tame the password problem and are turning to single sign-on technology as their strategy of choice. Passwords as we know them are headed for extinction.

Marc Boroditsky

We're working with our federal counterparts through the strategy and I know my colleagues in the provinces are working with their provincial governments and cancer agencies to look at how we can get this program implemented as quickly as possible.

Heather Logan

The strategy of taking market share and growing its securities portfolio is going according to plan.

Thane Bublitz

Taking management control in a medium-sized bank would provide a lot of value after the lender is restructured. Everyone wants to form their own China strategy in the banking sector and what they're prepared to pay now reflects expectations for future loan growth.

Andrew Chan

In the 1980's, the United States figured out a new business strategy. It is remarkable how these American companies learned to compete.

Toshio Nakajima

It really wasn't as much about the long-term strategy and direction of the company, but the board was disappointed that after 3½ years, the progress hadn't translated into better financial performance. There had been several quarterly misses.

David Sternblitz

If Americans could legally access prescription drugs outside the United States, then drug companies would be forced to re-evaluate their pricing strategy.

Chuck Grassley

This sale represents the continuation of our Company's strategy to dispose of assets located outside of core markets and provides the opportunity to recycle capital into acquisitions and development in our higher growth markets. We have sold $27 million in properties year to date versus our stated annual goal of $100 million.

Randall M. Griffin

They're just going overboard. This is police-state strategy.

Frank Mitchell

I don't think anyone predicted the appeal and the popularity it has grown to. A lot of that has to do with the sophistication and the science and the marketing. It's a game that appeals to those who are very competitive, like being on the edge, the risk, the strategy.

Thomas O'donnell

Lenders can now quickly assess preliminary damage levels on individual loans and determine the overall impact on loss reserves for their entire portfolio. We have already worked with ten of the top lenders in the country, processing over a million loans, to help them determine their investigation strategy.

Scott Shaw

We're glad to have them, but you can't build up your services based on temporary residents. You need to provide services, but you don't built up a long-term strategy serving the National Guard.

Jack Finn

These conflicting messages reflect a lack of clarity and coherence. When (Venezuelan President Hugo) Chavez speaks, they react. There is no strategy of thinking longer-term and in more strategic terms.

Michael Shifter

While we would have liked to start off the year at a higher level, we are in an intensely competitive market and have developed a strategy for all three brands to regain their momentum quickly.

Gary Dilts

It will be interesting to see what's more important to the players: chip stacks or comfort level. There's a lot more strategy in Extreme Poker than in a normal tournament.

Peter Marcus

Australia needs to establish a Pacific climate change strategy and part of that, obviously, has to be dealing with the issue of climate change refugees.

Anthony Albanese

The individual units are very cute and very adorable. But the function of them as an ensemble is where the real strategy lies.

Penelope Boston

Our strategy is to focus on those areas where we can have a good competitive advantage, so we do things in larger sizes. About 50 percent of our business is typically in sizes that can be difficult to find on the high street.

Alan White

We believe that the study will provide Henderson County with an important tool that analyzes our current status as it relates to children and family issues and point us toward an aggressive strategy to deal with these important issues.

Bill Moyer

Investors' strategy is really simple --- buying earnings winners.

Hiroyuki Fukunaga

We just don't see how current U.S. strategy is going to reverse these very dangerous trends.

Alan Tonelson

I would be concerned, but not especially disappointed, if the PC or enterprise divisions slipped back into the red, ... As part of a long-term strategy, gaining market share is a worthy goal.

Barry Randall

This is a great leap forward in the evolution of our mobile video strategy, and we look forward to developing more exciting initiatives in this space over the year to come.

Judy Mcgrath

We have appointed a global company to work out the branding and positioning strategy for TCS in the global market. Their report is expected in a matter of weeks and the roll out of the strategy would begin next fiscal.

Phiroz Vandrevala

Everyone knows that when it comes to designing plays, Eddie is a genius. He always comes up with the new move or the new strategy. He's amazing.

Pat O'toole

This really appeals to a fashion-forward consumer. Our strategy is to become more relevant to customers who are already in the store across more categories.

John Fleming

We've been waiting for something to happen in the management ranks in order for them to change their strategy.

John Eade

The workshop will be attended by nurses, doctors and hospital management. The aim is to come up with a strategy of how best to address these complaints in terms of the allocation of resources.

Sizwe Kupelo

Because of their focused and deep business strategy, concentrating only on transactions, Ameritrade would make an easier transition into a more diversified financial company.

Glenn Schorr

AOL absolutely needs a broadband strategy moving forward, or it risks getting left high and dry by companies that do.

Barry Parr

The strategy for us in this case was to handle it face to face.

Jeanne Miller

Substantive future investments from our federal government must be rooted in the principles of accountability and a clear strategy for building a New South: a New South that is stronger, better, and full of economic opportunities for all citizens.

Mary Landrieu

The year 2005 was one of record profits. So to talk of merger pressure, you can only do so you when talking about the long-term strategy. Not if you talk about it on a short-term basis.

Ray Soudah

The transaction reflects our disciplined strategy of investing capital in core businesses where we can leverage scale and expertise for competitive advantage. In addition to being a great strategic fit, the deal is compelling financially.

Jamie Dimon

Whether or not to proceed down that path, that decision will be made by the representatives of the pilots and it's just another piece of an overall strategy we will use to convince management to negotiate toward a consensual agreement.

John Culp

You can see the competitive reaction quite honestly as an endorsement of the IBM strategy.

Sam Palmisano

This is consistent in our strategy in moving from an acquisition company to an operations company.

Thomas Morgan

Along with our strategy to create immersive, engaging content, we believe that the technology to allow for dynamic, in-game advertising will add a sense of cultural relevance and context for the mass-market audience.

Steve Allison

Gannett's cable properties are a natural fit with our growth strategy of adding large technologically advanced properties in stand-alone markets and in markets contiguous to our existing operations.

Jim Robbins

We talked and did a lot of strategy before the game to try to keep [Providence] off-balance.

Christina Gillman

We have referred nearly $2 million to Emerald Partner agents since adopting our '100% commitment to the travel professional' strategy two years ago. In return, we ask that agents enrolling in our Emerald Partner program become true Ireland Specialists so they can serve their clients as knowledgeable experts.

Chris Accomando

Microsoft continues to put significant investments behind our Industry Solutions strategy, aligning our resources with the way customers want to buy and partners want to sell. Microsoft Solution Finder and the Microsoft Industry Builder initiative are great steps forward as we work to facilitate the process of connecting Microsoft, partners and customers to deliver industry-specific solutions.

Craig Mccollum

The only way to take on a global corporation is to take them on with a national or regional strategy.

Mike Casey

The sale of these mature assets aligns with our strategy to increase the proportion of long-life and operated assets within our portfolio.

Peter Kallos

You go to somewhere like Vietnam and I'm sure it's a very strong acquisition strategy, as opposed to a one-to-one marketing strategy.

Greg Paull

Performing the final assembly in Troy is the lowest risk and most cost- effective and efficient method of responding to the Australian requirement, while still serving the domestic JASSM order strategy.

Randy Bigum

If you don't have the fertilizer and don't have the seed, I can tell you what, none of it will happen. If we are going to compete with the Third World on low-cost labor, we're going to lose, so that's not a good strategy. ... But you do have to have jobs for people that fit that category - not everybody in the state is going to be a computer scientist.

Frank Hefner

Our strategy is to continue to buy out minority holdings when we have the opportunity to do so. The acquisition of minority holdings ... enables us to control fully the revenues of these businesses which we know well and believe to have excellent prospects.

Marc Beuls

Intuit is defining and leading the new world of e-finance -- and that strategy is paying off.

Scott Cook

The profit growth in the first half demonstrates that our strategy is delivering strongly.

John Varley

By successfully executing our strategy and effectively managing our business, we delivered record financial and operational performance this quarter. Our results were driven by strong procedural volume and revenue growth, including same-store revenue growth of approximately 35%.

Craig Joffe

I really felt good during the swim. I had my stroke count down and just focused on my race strategy and racing my race.

Tara Kirk

The Mafia is continuing in its strategy of keeping a low profile, a truce: weapons are out, business is in.

Antonio Ingroia

Without enough consumption ability and demand, most of the 1.3 billion Chinese would only be potential consumers. A lack of market demand will make it difficult to implement China's independent innovation strategy.

Li Jian

It's part of a carefully crafted strategy to try and engender sympathy for the defendant.

Randy Mastro

As it does so, the group will continue to adapt its marketing strategy and infrastructure to provide greater focus on customer retention and player value.

Richard Segal

Given the challenges of the post-petroleum world, we have to provide answers. Europe has to come up with a true strategy to guarantee energy security.

Dominique De Villepin

We're keeping our election day strategy confidential. We're up against three people. We don't want to get our strategy out.

Nick Loeb

The chief of naval operations has outlined an aggressive enterprise IT strategy, and formation of this EPMO will set the stage for future IT growth throughout the Navy. BearingPoint is honored to assist in transforming the way the Navy manages and delivers on its IT priorities.

Beth Smith

Its vast distribution channels offer us a leg-up in our strategy to expose our hotel properties to a broad customer base.

Brandon Johnson

Make a decision. If Long Beach is not going to approve this, let us know. We need to regroup and devise a new strategy.

Gerald Ottavino

UPS now flies to more points in China than any other U.S. airline, freight or passenger. These new flights are part of our strategy to expand our service options, stay ahead of customer needs and solidify our position as the leader in the world's fastest growing market.

David Abney

It's just a strategy that our district and other districts have started to employ. We're trying to ensure that we have a pool of qualified applicants by offering those opportunities in February or March rather than in August. Because by August, many of those candidates have found jobs.

Wendy Lapham

I believe they've done this intentionally as a strategy. They are intent upon political maneuvering. The orchestration of that strategy has really soured the process.

Dale Peterson

As one of the world's most popular online gaming companies we have a very strong story to tell in respect of our position and our future strategy for growth.

John Anderson

I think it's going to be tough playing in Des Moines over the weekend because Drake has a home court advantage. We are going to continue our same strategy, which is winning the doubles point and winning down low. If we keep our course, I think we will be in good shape.

Greg Kennett

He doesn't believe that occupying Iraq is a winning strategy for American troops. He wants the president and the Defense Department to level with the American people and show them a plan for leaving Iraq.

Lonn Hoklin

Symantec is a big buyer. The acquisitions have been critical not just to Symantec, which has been using it to stay ahead in the game, but also for the ecosystem of startups that the M&A strategy helps sustain.

Pete Lindstrom

Novell has the necessary resources to be a much more profitable enterprise but it currently lacks the vision, strategy and execution to produce respectable returns.

Jason Maynard

Our strategy is to offer a choice to PC users. We offer all the features of Microsoft Office and, since we started offering WordPerfect through OEMs in 2003, a large number of people have chosen us rather than Microsoft products.

Richard Carriere

We are committed to back MTU in their growth strategy. We at EQT are very glad that we were chosen as the new owner of MTU, and we want to help MTU to continue to prosper and be even more successful in the future. We are very much looking forward to working together with management and employees to develop the company's potential.

Marcus Brennecke

We will be continuing to look at new opportunities to move into new markets and if and when the opportunity arises and it fits and we have a clear and achievable strategy to enter that market, we will be making a move.

Simon Baker

There is a new harvest strategy that uses banding data.

Dave Sharp

I am delighted with the continued growth of Ann Summers. Our strategy of investment in the future growth of the company is once again reaping rewards. Despite many retailers trying to jump on the bandwagon, Ann Summers is still the number one store for sexy lingerie and sex toys.

Jacqueline Gold

This is the ultimate strategy, going up the food chain and building a case against the big fish. You want to go up the food chain, not down the food chain by giving a deal to the kingpin and going after the mules.

Mark Godsey

We know what needs to be done. This is just a matter of political will. It's a matter of putting aside ideologies and looking at what the needs are and then crafting a strategy for addressing those needs. This is a matter of leadership.

Jeff Southard

We're not neglecting that (low-end) market. We're going to come up with a new strategy. We're developing it at the moment. We're almost ready to deploy it.

Skott Ahn

He certainly had a clear vision for PAG. He wasn't there long enough to see it through, but it's continuing and it's a viable strategy.

Garel Rhys

The role of the military within domestic American society, both by law and by history, has been carefully constrained, and there is nothing in our strategy that would move away from that historic principle.

Paul Mchale

This chip was designed specifically for smartphones , and is an integral part of Intel's mobile strategy.

Amy Martin

A lot more mutual funds are starting to use that strategy.

Patrick Rogers

No one had any doubt they would reach 1 million (downloads). But I think the speed of adoption is ahead of expectations. It's a good sign for Apple, and its strategy.

Shaw Wu

The average investor may have exited the market post 9/11, but these households simply stayed the course, letting their investments regain value over time. This strategy is starting to pay off. Some investment losses were offset by gains in real estate, but for the most part, ownership of stocks and bonds remained fairly stable.

Jeanette Luhr

It's got to be consistent with our overall strategy and two, is there value in it?

David Kirk

He had the vision to help create a strategic plan more than a decade ago which focused on improving the health of the people we serve. This mission continues to guide our overall strategy yet today.

Larry Glasscock

A successful economic development strategy must focus on improving the skills of the area's workforce, reducing the cost of doing business and making available the resources business needs to compete and thrive in today's global economy.

Rod Blagojevich

The congressman is from the Capital region and has been known on occasion to venture outside of his congressional district. They need a better strategy to see success in November than this.

Melissa Carlson

The timing was right to pursue Peregrine. As part of the build-out of our Adaptive Enterprise strategy, one key category we wanted to cover was asset management.

Todd Delaughter

Black has done a terrific job in his short tenure of making the firm more disciplined and laying out a long-term strategy.

Rachel Barnard

Baja Fresh is an excellent addition to our company and a great fit for our long-term growth strategy.

Jack Schuessler

People might not believe this, but I actually enjoyed the game at least after it was over. There was strategy. There were adjustments. It was a game like we'll have to play in the regional tournament. We executed some things that two weeks ago we couldn't have done.

Denny Throneburg

The New York Times, despite having a pretty good strategy with regard to both print and online, has probably had some of the most sluggish ad revenue growth in the newspaper industry and at the same time has incurred more cost increases than its peers.

Douglas M. Arthur

You have to be careful that your entire strategy doesn't depend on one industry. But manufacturing is still a vital part of the American economy.

Ross Devol

The advent of the Internet has allowed people like myself to take an active role. The online broker and decreasing commission costs has been a major driver of that. Without the Internet I don't think my strategy would have changed, but through the Internet I have more research.

Peter Reilly

The committee has been very clear about what its strategy is. It expects to continue to tighten, but it doesn't know how much farther it has to go, and those decisions will depend on the incoming data.

Brian Sack

In a year when many big, well known Macro managers struggled, it is interesting to see that the demand for the strategy is strong, with 61% planning an increase and not one respondent planning a decrease.

John Lowry

Many seniors are confused and concerned, and in Iowa the Democrats' strategy is to tap into that to nullify some perceived advantages Republicans have had with seniors over the past couple of elections. The senior population is a significant and critical demographic here in a state that is essentially 50-50.

David Redlawsk

The difficult economic climate affected our business more than we anticipated late in our April quarter, ... Our business in Asia fell below our expectations and Discreet continued to experience selling pressure. Despite the shortfall, we remain confident in our strategy to help customers gain greater value from digital design data and look forward to providing more details on our results call.

Carol Bartz

This relationship forms the cornerstone of the next phase of our commerce strategy.

George Bell

We haven't decided yet. We're trying to sort out our strategy. Clearly the people are very unhappy about this law.

Sarah Stoesz

Our results suggest a potential universal strategy for treating drug addiction. Most drugs of abuse act on the neurons in this area.

Xia Zhang

Given today's market conditions, we have determined that this strategy is the best way to service our Web publishers as well as advertiser clients. Our goal in this realignment is to leverage our media sales force more efficiently as well as improve client service levels with a dedicated senior level team focused on key sites and advertisers.

Barry Salzman

This strategy of integrated innovation has just caused the whole company to go into gridlock.

Michael Cusumano

I think the race was won on the first turn. From there on it was a matter of the strategy and a question of how hard you can push.

Juan Pablo Montoya

In addition, spacing out alcohol consumption will allow your body's enzymes a better chance to keep up, and likely reduce toxic side effects. A simple strategy to accomplish both is to alternate alcoholic beverages with something like seltzer.

Dr. David L. Katz

I started thinking about what I could build in (Austin) that would make it special. We set out with a strategy to leverage the Austin vibe with music and sports and do things that were fun and cool for the city.

Bill Stapleton

The question is, is the CBS research and design strategy going to move toward something very different, or is it just going to put a celebrity in the traditional chair?.

Kent Collins

There were some amazing demonstrations of digital content at WSIS and delegates thought actions under this part of the Digital Strategy needed strengthening.

Brian Thompson

This thing came out of nowhere. I think in the longer run, it's the right product strategy for the company.

Byung hyun Kim

Finally. We were 2-of-10 before to that point. If we would've kept that up, that strategy for them (fouling and slowing down the game) would've worked.

Karen Friel

It is time for taxes to be more aggressively cut in order for the tax burden as a percentage of gross domestic product to decline to below 25 percent in line with the Gear [Growth, Employment and Redistribution] strategy.

John Loos

The pest control industry is continually growing as prevention has become the strategy of choice.

Cindy Mannes

They see our success and wonder if it can be replicated with some similar strategy. Certainly, imitation is the sincerest form of flattery.

Tom Barton

Our strategy is to play on the dreams and aspirations of the people. A passenger travelling sleeper class aspires to travel AC class, not by air. If we offer AC travel for just a little more than what the passenger is paying for sleeper, he would be more than happy to travel with us.

Sudhir Kumar

I think that our continued survival in a land of the giants over the last five years has proved that strategy works.

Michael Small

If anything, you should have an open system. There has to be a feeling of justness to this and the overall strategy.

Russell Walters

We continue to find Safeway's lifestyle-oriented repositioning strategy sound but somewhat limited. Although it will effectively appeal to the middle 60 percent to 70 percent of the market, it is less competitive at the opposite ends of the demographic spectrum.

John Heinbockel

Teaming Chris with Ed Farmer will give our listeners great insight to the pitcher-hitter battle, in-depth understanding of game strategy and planning, and will bring every White Sox game to life for our listeners.

Brooks Boyer

Right now we're already starting to see that rebuilding is under way and energy prices are moving lower so that makes it easier for them to stick to their strategy. They will likely conclude that the economy is showing a great deal of resilience and that it is able to withstand a higher level of oil prices.

Lynn Reaser

The essence of strategy is choosing what not to do.

Michael Porter

They want to be able to see commitment by the community to do this and sort of a strategy. They don't want to see sort of a lunchtime idea. They want to see long term, how do you define your community.

Merrill Flood

Building a business intelligence strategy without a complete EIM solution is like trying to complete a puzzle without all the pieces.

John Schwarz

Our strategy is sound, and the Mercedes-Benz group's turnaround came right on schedule in the second quarter. In addition, the turnaround at Chrysler Group is beginning to pick up momentum.

Juergen Schrempp

Mobile operators have every interest in rolling out mobile e-mail solutions to their networks, and see it as an indispensable element in their competitive strategy.

Alaa Owaineh

This milestone is yet another demonstration of our ability to execute our strategy, succeed in a highly competitive market and continue to deliver value to our customers.

Jack Cassidy

It is very important for us to have a partner who understands the business, and someone who understands GMAC's strategy and how it relates to GM's automobile business.

Tom Kowaleski

Russia is one of the top-five beer markets in the world and fits our international growth strategy for brand development.

Andrew Day

It makes no difference to me. It wouldn't have any impact on my investment strategy.

Fred Walker

This sale is part of Colgate's ongoing strategy to de-emphasize and eliminate low-margin portions of the business while focusing on our high-margin, fast-growing oral, personal and pet care businesses.

Reuben Mark

My coaching strategy, I like to try and dictate the pace. But against Fisk, you can't always do that. You have to trust your players to make plays. When our guys saw opportunities, they took them. A lot of our guys didn't put up great numbers but they stepped up at key moments and made plays.

Tony Duckworth

Volkswagen has made a strategic decision to expand in the area of heavy commercial vehicles, in line with our long-term strategy.

Ferdinand Piech

This has been a good quarter for Sony Ericsson, proving that our strategy of expanding the product portfolio upward into best-in-class imaging, music and 3G products while increasing the number of more affordable and attractively designed volume models is paying off.

Miles Flint

It's obvious that they would take that strategy first.

Joe Bartolotta

In the long term, Bristol is not going to grow by having a novelist approach to their legal strategy.

Bob King

We've got a sound strategy. We're going straight to the people.

Brad Dixon

We didn't do that last game against them. And they smoked us. We had to play our own game, do our thing, and that was the strategy for us.

Kyle Dancause

We have been on record for many, many years that any property that is simply selling itself on a 'sex sells' strategy has a shortened shelf life for success. Not been our strategy, never has been.

Karen Durkin

I think it reflects that there is a commitment to online advertising, there is a recognition that is part of a long-term retail strategy.

Jeff Lanctot

The ability to demonstrate broadband in our stores and show customers end-to-end connectivity solutions with Microsoft technology allows us to strengthen our customer acquisition strategy.

Leonard Roberts

Building a sound patent portfolio is part of our overall growth strategy that we believe adds considerable value to the company. It also furthers our goal of maintaining a leadership role in the development of innovative next-generation MRM products and solutions that are designed to help businesses effectively manage their mobile workers and their work while optimizing service delivery.

Leo Jolicoeur

The growth we've seen this year is largely due to measured planning and active reinvestment. When asked about their investment approach over the past year, 61 percent of millionaires said their approach has changed very little, indicating they have a strategy and they are sticking to it.

Jeanette Luhr

Being the best-kept secret is not a good strategy when you're in the tourism industry.

David Kenney

Budapest is right in line with our international strategy, and we have won it at a fair price, reflecting the true value to BAA of the assets involved, rather than any wider strategic benefits.

Mike Clasper

It's great to finally have a full-blown solid weekend. Pit strategy was the main thing, just like everybody anticipated.

Buddy Rice

This transaction in no way means a shift in our overall strategy. We are continuing to build a diversified financial services company. It is an economically compelling move to bring us the same capacity in New Jersey that we have in New York, Connecticut and New England.

Terrence Murray

Investors will increasingly question Intel's franchise value until/unless their pricing strategy begins to slow down AMD's momentum.

James Covello

It ties in with their long-term strategy. In a bid situation, 350 pence does not seem unreasonable.

Angelos Anastasiou

The Adventists cut our supply lines. It was traditional military strategy.

Jimmie Jones

I will continue to steer the ministry to achieve this strategy of ensuring fuel supplies and the energy security of our nation.

Murli Deora

With the addition of our theatrical product, catalogue and the other resources we will provide, we intend to mirror in the U.K. the successful growth strategy we have executed in North America.

Jon Feltheimer

Australia's brazen move confirms that an alarming government-industry strategy is in play to overturn the UN moratorium on Terminator. The process and outcome dismiss the contributions of Indigenous and local communities.

Lucy Sharratt

IBM's integrated Unix/Linux strategy, which can support both simple and complex workloads, is designed to help customers make customer's choices the right one.

Bill Claybrook

If you look from 1992 to 1997, we've really reduced the number of car models from more than 100 to about 81. Our strategy is to have the right number of products. Segment the brands better.
