1. Analyze the strategy of the Montana Land Reliance (MLR) from the point of view of resource dependence. What strategies do they engage in to manage their symbiotic resource dependencies with landowners?

2. What sources of power does the MLR have in dealing with their economic environment? How does this affect their strategy?

3. What is the role of governmental environmental protection in this case?

4. Assume you are a consultant called in to advise MLR and assume MLR has decided that they want to consider the transition to a more formal and professional management structure. What would such a structure look like? What problems are they facing that the structure would help address? Provide an organizational chart. Would this new structure affect the culture of MLR?
