Weekly round up - lots of Sony news!

What a cold and wet week. I haven't been doing so much teaching this week but we have been working  behind scenes to plan future teaching sessions and to improve the library service.

Lots of Sony articles this week to help you MGT3201 students with your group project. I hope that is all going well. Sony is restructuring as it now forecasts a net loss for this quarter. Five thousand jobs will be lost, Sony is selling its PC unit meaning they will no longer manufacture VAIO laptops and will be spinning off their TV unit. This article has a good five point analysis of areas of concern for Sony.

A long running legal dispute between Google and EU has been resolved meaning Google must be explicit about which links are sponsored. Just another reason to do your research on Summon? Virtuous January debates on the role of sugar in obesity are causing problems for food groups. Advice for MBA students on how to network without forgetting that you are interacting with people and finally an article on Women in the Business School full of handy suggestions.
