HMV to become a more ‘compact’ disc retailer
Recommend on Google+
I’ve been covering Internal Change with BUSS4 students this week, and in particular the theme of retrenchment. So whilst it’s not good news for employees, senior management and shareholders of HMV, this news story couldn’t be better timed for students looking for real life examples of retrenchment.
Can students figure out how many possible types of retrenchment are mentioned in the articles? And can they explain the main reasons behind the retrenchment?
