ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS

After an intensive period of fourteen studying months, today is the day writing this note

of thanks is the finishing touch on my dissertation. It has been a period of intense learning

for me, not only in the business management knowledge, but also on a personal soft silk

development. Writing this dissertation has had a big impact on me. I would like to reflect

on the people who have supported and helped me so much throughout this period.

Firstly, I would like to express my very great appreciation to PROF. JACQUES MARTIN for

his valuable sharing not only for this thesis but also along whole this master program. His

willingness to give his time and advice so generously has been very much appreciated.

Secondly, I would like to thank all the professors of MBQPM program. They have already

open my mind in different aspects of business management. Their valuable guidance

builds up the strong baseline for my future career development. These knowledges

provided me with the tools that I needed to choose the right direction and successfully

complete my dissertation.

Thirdly, my studying cannot complete without the strong support from my company Nike.

With the financial assistance as well as the open environment to support my data

collection and improvement suggestion.

Finally, I would also like to thank family are always there to support for me. Thank parents

understand and arrange the best condition for my studying. Most importantly, I thank my

loving and supportive husband who provide unending inspiration for me.
