- The winds of change at SiemensPublication . Salvador, Rita Alexandra Duarte Moura; Barreto, IlídioStrategic change is a topic of great importance given the turbulence of the markets in which firms operate. Related to this topic, it has recently been developed the concept of dynamic capabilities, which refers to the ability of companies to sustain their competitive advantage in changing environments. Often as a mean to cope with the challenges presented by the environments, companies hire outside CEOs in order to acquire new perspectives, capabilities and mindsets to improve company’s performance. This dissertation comprises a teaching case about Siemens. The longstanding corporation has a history of success but where there were also some threats to the sustainability of the company in the market. In this case, the main focus is on the period since 2007. In that period, Siemens hired the first outside CEO in its history and the crisis took place, putting to the test the endurance of the CEO and, ultimately, of the company.
- Merger between KPN and Telekom AustriaPublication . Salgado, Miguel José Oliva Teles; Tsvetkov, Peter IordanovThe purpose of this dissertation is to value the new company resulting from the merger between KPN and Telekom Austria. Although, there are a number of valuations on the standalone operations of both companies, they lack to value a potential merger between them, and consequently the synergies found in such transaction. During the dissertation, KPN is valued in 27 billion € and Telekom Austria is valued in 7 billion €, whereas the new firm will be valued in 40 billion €, implying synergies worth around 6 billion €. Furthermore, knowing that shareholders always thrive for higher gains, such transaction would allow for that to happen, with América Móvil, the main shareholder in both companies, pushing for the merger to take place.
