Review of Each Year’s Progress
It is important for a company to take into account the progress of each year in order to
determine the growth and development prospects of the corporation. In this relation, an in depth
analysis of performance of Limitless is provided beneath with the assistance of effective tools.
Porter’s Five Forces Analysis:
This is a model which provides assistance in determining the extent of competitive
rivalry within the confines of any industry. In relation to the performance of Limitless, the
management of this organisation is applying this model to gain knowledge of the comparative
position of the entity as against the industry within which it operates. This model consists of 5
forces which are discussed below:-
 Customer’s Bargaining Power: The extent of this force was low within the initial years
of operations of Limitless as, there were lesser numbers of market players. With the
passage of time, new companies gained access into smart phone industry which inflated
the bargaining power held by the customers for Limitless (Levant, Coulmont and Sandu,
2016). Yet the effective performance shown by the concerned organisation during the last
5 years has provided assistance in countering the high customer bargaining power. Supplier’s Bargaining Power: In the initial phase, there were less numbers of vendors in
the market due to which the extent of this force in context of smart phone industry was
high. The passage of time introduced several new suppliers diluting the magnitude of this
force for Limitless. Thus, the entity is now able to build networking with vendors and
negotiate the prices of materials provided by them.
 Threat of Substitutes: The threat of substitutes in context of smart phone industry has
always been high. This is so because even though the quantum of rivals in the initial
phase of Limitless was low, such entities were still coming up with new features at rapid
intervals to captivate the audience (Draijer, 2020). Threat of New Entrants: The extent of threat of new entrants has constantly increased in
context of smart phone industry for Limitless. Even though substantial capital investment
is required to gain access into this market, the constantly growing prospect of this sector
has gained the attention of new companies, thus enhancing risk for Limitless. Competitive Rivalry: The magnitude of this force has increased with the efflux of time,
being low in the initial phase of Limitless to being at peak in the present time. At present,
5

there are some top market players which pose threat to the sustainability of Limitless in
the market place. However, the entity strives to leverage focus on fulfilment of customer
needs to sustain in market in the long run.
Market share:
Market share is the percentage of the market (defined in terms of any unit or revenue) accounted
for by a specific entity. Percentage of sales volume of products of a specific company among the
total sales volume of specific products in a competitive market (market). Market occupancy rate,
market occupation rate, which is also an indicator of market power. It is roughly proportional to
the concentration of production in terms of production volume, but in the case of goods with
high dependence on imports, market occupation rates may be lower even if the concentration of
production is high.
The simulation results shows that currently; smart phone company has grabbed around 45%
market share in Australia; 48% in UK and more than 55% in Germany. Which indicates that
maximum scope for product development and gaining more market share is in Germany itself.
After 10 years; this results varies with improving the market share in Australia by 2%; UK also
shown improvement by more than 8%; and the leading company Germany has maximum
improvement which is more than 15% over 10 years of life span.
Product/Price analysis
This is the percentage difference between your product's average product price and the
participative product price. For product groups, the price difference is measured based on the
traffic potential of your product. More popular products will be given more importance than less
popular products. If the price of a commodity is kept low for the poor class due to price
discrimination and high price is kept for the rich class, then price differentiation is beneficial for
the society. Report says 81% of customers who think about various store offers locate a superior
arrangement. Affiliates who can gather and dissect showcase information, map their position
contrasted with contenders and offer the best costs, are the organizations that initially pull in the
consideration of those purchasers.
Serious valuing is a methodology that assists organizations with drawing in more clients by
streamlining costs utilizing serious creation and evaluating information. An effective valuing
methodology can fundamentally expand deals, lead to better coordinated effort with providers
6

and produce income. Below is the product/price analysis of different countries; Australia, UK
and Germany based on current year 2020 and over the next 10 years:
 Australia: In Australia; taking year 2020 as a base; total segmented market on the basis
of price is 6 million; on the basis of quality it is 72,000 and over 1.14 million customers
focused on current smart phone company. After 10 years; the resulted data shows not
much difference; as segmented market based on price is increased by 300K; based on
quality increased by 3,600 and focused customer base increased by 57,000.
 UK: As compare with Australia; in 2020, market segment based on price is only 1.8
million; based on quality shows more product preference by people and shows positive
attitude towards quality of UK people which is 1.62 million and customer focus doesn’t
create much difference; as it is only 1.14 million.
 Germany: This country is leading all other two countries from every point of perspective.
In 2020; smart company is able to attract over 1.94 million people based on price; 1.68
million based on quality and 1.58 million customers are product centric based on both
price and quality.
Competitive strategies of company
There are a number of generic competitive strategies which this company purse you in
order to gain competitive advantage in the market. The company has chosen from four generic
strategies in order to do so. Below mentioned is the strategies which can be followed by a
number of companies to attain competitive advantage:
Cost leadership: Cost leadership can be attained by a company in the market by providing their
products at a lower price than their competitors. Company here uses cost leadership or
operational excellence strategy by offering high-quality smartphones in the market. Company
here focuses on cutting the cost wherever possible only keeping the necessities which are
essential.
Product leadership: Product leadership is achieved by a company when they provide best
possible product to their customers which have no substitute in market. Company here
differentiates their product from others in market by providing high quality smartphones in
market. They have all the new innovations required by a firm to do good in market. Innovation is
the main focus on company through which they provide best product to their customers.

Customer focus: In this company focus on building the brand image in the market. This is done
through focusing on establishment of a long lasting relationship with their customers. It helps in
establishing a strong brand identity and also working for innovations will make the clients as
ambassadors for the business.
Combination of all of above: Company here does not focus on a single aspect but look for all the
aspects altogether. They sit in the middle when taking into account price, quality as well as
strong brand image. This is also a good competitive strategy which can be followed by company.
When talking about company Limitless they focus on gaining competitive advantage in
the market. There are a number of ways through which company can successfully do this. But
Limitless follows combination of cost leadership, product leadership and customer focus. The
prices at which company provides their product in market are neither too low nor too high.
However, they take care of fact that their products are provided at competitive prices as per their
competitors in the market. When taking quality and product into consideration Limitless have a
number of innovations in their product which makes it better then their competitors. But the
amount spent on research and development is not much as company do not want its cost to rise
too much. Company have paid a lot of attention towards their customers. They do it through
taking regular feedbacks from their customers and meeting the required wants and needs of
customers. They have also focused on after sales service to make it possible. Following all these
steps Limitless faces competition in market and attains competitive advantage.
Evaluation of strategies and decisions
Company have to take decisions regarding a number of matters. These decisions of
companies are related to countries they work for, management of company along with different
departments which are human resource, product, distribution, marketing and finance. Below
mentioned is an analysis of performance and evaluation of company’s strategies and decisions
regarding all these points.
Countries: Limitless deals in a number of countries as it has gone international to carry on its
business. Some of the major countries it deals in and various strategies it uses in those different
countries are mentioned below:
 United Kingdom: It is a great option for Limitless as it represents economic power in
Europe. Country is known for long and successful history including its financial history
as well. This is reason how company is successfully positioned in this country.
8

 Australia: Company have used market penetration to enter in Australian market.
 Germany: This company has 4th largest economy when comparing nominal GDP. The
country has high standard of living and sustained development making it a great
opportunity for Limitless to work in this country.
Management: The management of company is divided into functional, geographic and
international division structure. The company is divided into various departments as per their
functions which are operations, finance, human resource, marketing and so on.
Human Resource: Limitless have successfully developed a strong Human resource department
by dividing it into various sectors. They have some important policies followed by them which
include set standards for maximum workload on per employee, the number of full time
employees required, developing a human capital management support system, specific
remuneration, rewards as well as bonuses.
Product: Limitless designs their product keeping in mind customer preferences so that it is
accepted in market by targeted customers. They invest enough in their research and
development. There is a particular budget allotted for research and development and regular
check is made by company on its research and development to make sure that everything goes
according to plan.
Distribution: Company have set standards for their distribution as well. The cost and time
required for their distribution is clearly mentioned by the firm. The smartphones are produced in
their factories which are situated in Asia and the delivery starts from their itself. The products
move to the warehouses of specific countries from factory. Company is linked with LSP for their
delivery who provide them on time delivery although it is a bit expensive.
Marketing: The marketing of Limitless is done through various mediums. It is done globally as
well as locally. Different marketing strategies are made for local as well as global markets.
Company mostly uses online promotion activities for their global promotion. The major focus of
their campaigns is on brand awareness, brand knowledge, behaviour intention, behaviour
facilitation as well as satisfaction of their customers.
Financial: It is clear that Limitless needs to invest a lot as they need to continuously innovate
new features in their products. It is to be kept in mind that only investment will bring in profits
for company. Company usually goes for loans in order to attain investment for their business.
They have certain long term as well as current loans through which they get investments for
9

company. Once they started earning profits, they can easily manage regular cash flows for
business and will not require huge borrowings from market.
Performance analysis
It analysis the performance of the Smart phone company with the help of merit called key
performance indicators. Below are some measures for comparison:
Comparison of actual performance based on targets:
Profit Margin Ratio:
Net profit margin ratio is a profitability ratio. Basically, after deducting preferred share dividends
from business operating expenses, interest expenses, taxes and revenue, it is a percentage of
profit from operating the business. Common stock dividends are the only major debit item left
out of the equation. The reason for this is that, technically, ordinary shares are not a dividend
expense; they are distributing profits to shareholders. Furthermore, they are not mandatory debits
- a company's board has declared a dividend and the same board can reduce or suspend the
dividend at any time.
Net Income = Gross Income - Expenditure. In many instances gross income is similar to sales
revenue, however, they may vary if certain exclusions are allowed - for example, stock options
granted to company executives but here we will assume the original position Where gross
income and sales revenue are the same thing. To arrive at net income for a specific time period,
often a quarter or a year, you subtract from gross income all business expenses for the same time
period. This includes all operating costs, interest, tax payments and preferred share dividends if
any. The profit margin ratio of the company shows huge losses over 10 years. According to
simulation software; Smartphone Company has profit margin of -67.97% which is much from
year 2020 -48.69%.
Lowest price:
The lowest price which can be offered by company is 3 pounds in 2029; below this rate will
make Smartphone developer to shut down its business because; it will not able to cover its fixed
cost of the business below this rate.
Return of equity:
The return of equity is determined as the amount of profit the company makes from the
shareholder's investment or is a measure of how effectively the company invests in a dollar
amount and derives better profit from it. Return on equity is more important than return on
10

investment to shareholders because it defines the way your money is reinvested in the company.
A company has a higher return on equity that may be able to generate more cash internally.
Therefore it is always better to invest in companies with high and consistent returns in equity. It
is not always advisable to invest in high ROE companies to create better returns. There are some
standards on which a company compares its return on equity with its industry average. Generally
the higher this ratio, the better the company invests in it.
Return on equity can be calculated based on the formula specified below:
Equity ratio = Net income / Return on equity of average shareholders
If we may be able to solve the return on equity problem, which is a part of the complex problem
then there are various other situations where we can apply the return on equity ratio equation.
The result of simulation shows that return on equity will not be received by Smartphone
Company after year 2027; before this year firm is facing negative return on equity due to huge
loss make by the company. And also it is much far from its target which is to earn 15% return on
equity.
Return on total Assets:
The return on assets determines how much profit a company makes for every dollar of its assets.
Assets can be anything like cash in the bank, accounts receivable, property, equipment, inventory
and furniture. Return on asset defines the investment that a company is generating from invested
capital (assets). Returns on assets vary greatly for public companies that rely heavily on industry.
If we compare ROA, it is a best practice to compare with ROA of the same company or against
the previous ROA number of a company. As we know that total assets of a company is the sum
of total liabilities and shareholder's equity. And the company's assets are funded either by debt or
equity. More debt will result in zero if we add net income and borrowing costs to average assets
over a given period. A formula for calculating the return on an asset is defined.
According to simulator; the targeted return on total assets set by Smartphone Company is 10%;
but actual performance is -0.11% showing poor performance by the company. After 10 years; it
will be -108.41% due to huge loss occur by the company.
Future plans and recommendations
Based on current analysis of target and performance of the Smartphone company over next 10
years; it is recommended that company required lots of changes in its operations and marketing
activities. These loses are very huge and can’t bear by firm over 10 years. Also sales growth
11

study analysis indicates negative growth which is bad indication for Smartphone owner to
continue its business for long period of time.
The future plan of the firm should be to focus on niche market; so that it can cover atleast its
variable cost. Profit margin also required by the company for the growth of its business. Hence,
it is suggested and strongly recommended that Smartphone Business Company should focus to
increase its profit margin and return on its equity and total assets for continuation of its
operations.

PART B-Professional Development Reflection Report
Executive summary
The reflection report, based on the individual working in a team in the simulation business
in Limitless Company. The company is involved into manufacture of verities of smart phones.
The reflection report consist of professional development and the learning way is completely
different the theories such as situational leadership and communication theories are two relevant
theories that can be applied in the organisation.
INTRODUCTION
The annual performance development review is approaching and there has been reflection of
understand if the company from the point of overall industry. Working in real completely
different from what we study in the overall MBA course. The theories and practises what we
understood in the overall academic concepts have to be applied in the practical life in a complete
different manner and with a overall different prospective. In the scenario I have been appointed
as a team leader where I got the opportunity to work with many different people in the whole
organisation. The present report, deals with the identified events, relevant theories, application of
theories and further discussion of the overall practise and research with more number of
recommendations on the practise.
Identified events:
The event that has been considered in the present report is a Leadership conference where
many leaders have participated along with limitless that lead to lot of detail discussion on various
events and based on that event (Trinidad, Vozmedianoand San-Juan, 2018). In this event I got
the opportunity to interact with other great leaders of my competitors to understand the basic
nature and the way they are playing various leadership theories for conducting of the business
practises, making some of the relevant business decisions and then managing the subordinates in
such a way that they are contribution maximum towards achievement of organisational
objectives. There were further many decisions that have been made in this organisation for the
purpose of developing an understanding of such events. There are many different theories that I
was able to identify such theories that can help in smooth functioning of overall function of this
organisation.
13

As the leader and manager of the board there are several decision that have to be made
for the organisation for various functional departments such as, marketing, financial and human
resource. In the conference event which I am highlighting in this present report there was major
discussion of the strategies that has been adopted by leaders working at various different
positions and in different departments of companies that they use on order to manage their staff
and help them in making higher contribution.
Review of Relevant theory
There were many leaders who are part of this company Limitless and they all are
responsible for participating and using their leadership skills for further management of various
roles and responsibilities. So, there is use of some below discussed leadership theories. There are
basically two leadership theories that are being considered in the present report as discussed
below:
Situational theories: It is a proposed theory that leaders in limitless have chosen based on the
actions that is suitable according to a particular business situation. Such as if leader is having lot
of experience and knowledge then use of authoritarian style of leadership is the most appropriate
theory that can be applied for various dynamic situations (Trinidad, Vozmedianoand San-Juan,
2018). There are different types of leadership theories that are part of situational leadership that
are helping in managing and leading of the overall workforce in an organisation such as:
Autocratic style: In this the sole decision making power rest with the leader and no other
organisation has the right to make decision and there is no consideration that is being given to
the subordinates while major important decision are being made in the working of organisation.
Democratic styles: It is a style of leadership that is also part of situational theories in
which there is consideration given to views of employees and all the subordinates and
Behavioural theories: behavioural theories are based on a belief that leaders are not born
but are made. It is having focus on the mental capabilities and the internal state of a leader.
According to this theory leaders can become and get a significant position with help of teaching
and more observation.
Participative theory: It is a theory that is in relation with a ideal style of leadership that
tale into account of other subordinates in a organisation. Leaders are encouraging and are feeling
more confident in participating with others so that they are more capable of performing such task
and make proper decision making.
14

The above mentioned are some of the theories that have been used in Limitless according
to my analysis that I made while I attended the conference events
Communication theory: this is related with the use of communication theory in the case of
Limitless the main communication theory that has been used by leaders is the interactional
model of communication in this model there is a two way communication that is taking place in
a organisation and it will help in such a communication that leaders are not only passing on their
information but at same time they are able to receive feedback and viewpoints of their
subordinate on various different topics and discussed matters so that they can reach to proper
conclusion (Gustafsson, 2017). It has also created a satisfied workforce is subordinates feel that
they are also important and their views are being considered at the time of making any important
decision in the organisation.
Review of industry practises
Company Limitless as dealing in smart phones have to deal with high amount of
competition in different areas such as in case of United Kingdom that are competing based on
prices, quality and customer focus are there criteria based on which there is high ,amount of
competition that is being observed in UK by Limitless (Fox, and Farrington, 2016). The scores
that have been provided based on various industry practises have been in such a manner that
there has been a core score of 108.23647 and the multiple core score has been not much. There
has been no major market share in comparison with all the other companies who are part of this
industry and the total segment size has been 6300000 and the total sales within this segment has
been zero. This leads to a analysis that there is lot more efforts that are required to made in order
to increase the percentage of sales in this particular segment (Wortley. and Tilley, 2017 ). From
such figures it can be said that there has not been much progressive reports and I have realised
that the main objective of achievement of higher sale can be done only if there will be something
different that can be experienced by customers in the target market by limitless. The efforts of
both leaders and managers are required along with suitable marketing and promotional strategies
have to be applied to enhance the overall sales of the organisation.
Application of theory or practise
The above discussed theories of leadership and communication theory have to be applied
in a organisation based on review of certain practises and then making decision based on the
15

particular strategy of the organisation. Such as in the present case of Limitless I have observed
that this brand is having a aim and they posses main concentration towards not only to sell smart
phones built at same time Limitless will also be focussing on their post sales services so that they
can have a more positive impact on their customers as such strategies will help them in having a
competitive advantage to survive in the situation of high competition that they are going to face
from similar mobile phones brands that are part of different countries (Wikström, . and Treiber,
2016). The use of democratic theory of leadership has actually created and can create a lot of
difference in the conference simulation also the major important events that has been identified is
related with how are various leadership used by such leaders and in such a manner that they can
easily stimulate the behaviour of their actual working staff.
The communication theory has been applied in limitless in such a way that the overall
vision of this company is divided in three points such as first is becoming more socially
responsible in this there is timely consideration given to all the aspects of society, second is
highly reliable in which all attempts are made to be responsible for any issues that their
customers are facing and then resolving them in the fast as possible so that customers are not
switching to other competetive brands and last part of their overall vision is to make Smartphone
basic need of a people living in the society. Third vision of Limitless is making Smartphone’s
basic need for people in which there are efforts made to cater demand for such product very
important in lives of people so that it becomes part of basic need for their survival and they
cannot line without Smartphone (Wilcox, . and Cullen, 2018).
So, above discussed are the vision of Limitless that are basically communicated with the
use of interactional model which there is a two way communication that is made among the
leaders and all the employees working in various different department at different levels of the
company. So that they are able to understand the importance of this vision and all their workings
are inclined towards achievement of such set vision in the organisation.
In another way the main communication that was made was that the aim of the leaders of
Limitless is that to make smart and affordable phones for everyone that is their present and
prospective customers.
16

Discussion
From the points mentioned above there can be discussion about the various different
aspects such as there is requirement of strong leading and management theories that have to be
used by organisations and especially those companies that are part of IT sector such as Limitless
who are dealing in making of mobile phones. The Ans off Matrix is a tool that can be used easily
and applied by the leaders and managers in Limitless that is going to be very beneficial in
formation of a specific strategy that could lead towards achievement of their better score in
comparison with other competitors. Use of leadership and communication theory can help in
carrying of the functions.
When models such as Ans off will be used then it will lead towards high amount of sales
as all the function will be perform duties a more specific manner such as it is going to provide a
specific guidance to all the employees that in which direction all their efforts have to be focussed
on in order to get high percentage of sales.
Recommendations
From the above made discussion there are some recommendations that I am making with respect
to Limitless that can help in improving their overall performance:
 The above identified event of the conference in which leaders have been participated
clearly indicates that there is a requirement to make certain very important tools for
communication with their subordinates. With the use of various leadership and
communication theories there are also other some of the important concepts that have to
be used in order to get a detailed understand of the actual; employs who are working at
lower positions of the organisation.
 There is a requirement of using and making a detailed analysis of some news items that is
very necessary part of the overall external analysis. The news items will help in updating
about what all is happening in the countries as individual units. Such events will also help
in influencing the national and the international strategy of limitless.
 Various attractive tag lines and slogans can be developed by the marketing department of
this organisation so that they are able to attract their prospective buyers about such
products. The overall vision of the organisation should be reflected in a particular tag
line that is going to help customer perceive more value and make their purchases
according to such identified core value being offered in a particular product.
17

 There has to be more focus on the overall international plan that is prepared by limitless
that is helping the leaders and concerned employees in making strategies for the
organisation.
Above discussed are some of the recommendations that have been with regard to sue of
various leadership theories and communication theories by leaders in limitless. In the conference
events and the overall experience of attending this event has lead to development of such
recommendations.
CONCLUSION
On the basis of overall information specified in the above section, it has been business
organisations are required to emphasis on analysing their internal as well as external
environment deeply so that they can easily determine their actual positioning at marketplace
without any issue. It has been further acknowledged that mission, vision, values of the company
simply shows how company itself sees its business and execute the work in rightful manner.
Mainly, it is highly important for the business managers to deeply analyse their actual financial
positioning by simply reviewing balance sheet, cash flow statements, income statement etc. so
that they can easily take future financial decisions accordingly for attaining maximising their
business growth in rightful manner. It can be further said that business organisations can easily
take its future decision by considering few areas such as market, customers, competencies,
capabilities, product quality and price. All of these equally contributes in the business growth of
the company as they are able to take rightful decisions towards it.
