CONCLUSION: GrameenPhone Ltd is still a growing company, in spite of all the success it has achieved so far. It holds kind of a monopoly position in the mobile telecommunications market. However, it cannot afford to get complacent. Competition is always on the lookout for new ideas and schemes. In order to maintain its number one position in the market, it is imperative that GP focus on the people who matter most to the companies- the people. Now the various dealers, distributors, outlets, and/or agents are GP’s representatives to the people. It is the impression that these individuals create that will influence people’s impression of GP. It is thus highly important for GP to act favorably towards these individuals, give them as much support and assistance as possible. GP must make time to hear the feelings and views of these individuals.
