- Summary:
- Among lodging options for visitors to Arkansas's state capital is the Empress of Little Rock, a premier bed and breakfast inn. This case describes the history of the inn and the people who originally built the mansion in which it is housed; the restoration following a period of disrepair, with the emergence of the Empress; and the most recent sale to the current owner/managers. Key issues highlighted for case discussion include identification of business-level strategy, the connection between firm resources and competitive advantage, the degree to which vision and passion influence strategic success, and the quality of strategy implementation arising from stewardship assumptions on the part of managers.
