In this instance, regardless of the public announcement that the state was following World Health Organization protocol, the public was furious. Public distrust continued when the new vaccine arrived, as the media had implied in previous reports that the vaccine was "rushed" through production. The public fears and responses that happened could have been mitigated through more scheduled town hall public meetings, where citizens are free to vent all concerns.
The second tasks assigned was that of benchmarking with other states on their methods and processes in handling the outbreak and utilizing those best practices in Tennessee. For this assignment Tennessee focused their communications and research on the state of Texas. Texas was at the front lines of the outbreak and had implemented a successful program to distribute anti-viral medications through a partnership with private pharmacies.

Comp-XM Executive Summary
Round One
The overall summary of the balanced scorecard for the Comp-XM indicates approximately two thirds of the possible decision points. The financial evaluation indicates higher rates of the stock prices (6.4/7), slight above average profit levels (4.7/7), and two thirds of the leverage condition (4.0/6). The underlining factors under the stock price were the fundamental factors (earning base and valuation multiple), technical factors, and Market sentiment. The market sentiment (psychological factors) approaches the maximum level in relation to the products of the company. This indicates that the level of individual and collective sentiments or psychology of the market compares appropriately across the industry thus allowing the company to enjoy higher stock prices. The overall stock prices within the industry also prove to add to the higher levels of the company's prices. The profit levels of the company seems to be lower because of the overall costs of stock,…...

Management practices vary across many organizations but the common concept is that efficient management practices are associated with better performance in terms of profit returns and productivity. The criminal justice setting is a system whereby government institutions practices are directed towards upholding justice, mitigating crime and punishing those who violate laws through rehabilitation or penalties. Fundamental concepts of organizational behavior are directed towards promoting effective managerial…...

Because the relaxation of market barriers to entry into the Chinese market have only recently come down, the potential for return for a first-mover like Harley Davidson is enormous, particularly as it already has strong brand name recognition. Yet there is also great risk if local governments continue to place restrictions on motorcycle use and construction, such as engine size (Nakashima, 2006, p.1).
Furthermore, "a population with a restricted but expanding disposable income will be a challenge" ("Harley-Davidson roars into China" BBC News, 2006). The Chinese business culture remains "fast-changing, enigmatic and anything but transparent, China is a nation where local corruption and shifting rules abound" (Schmid 2004). At present unlicensed, unauthorized Harley Davidson dealers are now operating in China, catering to local enthusiasts, but if the company does not act now it could lose the brand integrity and recognition it has worked so long to build around the world,…...

Cyber Threats: Executive Summary
It is important to note, from the onset, that even before the personal computer became as popular and as widely used as it is today, vandals still compromised computerized phone systems either for fun or for economic benefit. During the very early decades of IT, computer attacks were mostly committed by insiders, i.e. disgruntled employees of an entity (de Leeuw and Bergstra, 2007). The said attacks in this case were largely limited to physical damage to computing devices. At the time, "the systems were not networked with other systems…" (de Leeuw and Bergstra, 2007, p. 706). This was, however, until vandals discovered new ways of making use of computer systems to turn a profit or register protests. During these early days of technology, criminals would commonly modify data after subverting security systems via mostly authorized access. With the spread of telecommunications technology during the 1960s, computer criminals…...

Renzo Rosso of Diesel needed to make tough decisions about the branding strategy of his new line and he needed to make these decisions in a hurry. StyleLab was the new upscale product line of Diesel SpA, the Italian casual wear company famous for its cult Diesel jeans and controversial advertising. StyleLab would be considered creative, and would target the luxury segment market that was interested in casual wear. Renzo Rosso, Diesel's president and founder had the Renzo Rosso, Diesel's president and founder, but he was still unsure what the appropriate branding strategy for the new line should be.

The short-term factors of being able to react more responsively with seasonal fashions that become "break out" fashions are critical, and to accomplish this, greater supply chain coordination both with designers and their production centers are critical;. This tighter integration to designers in the short-term will allow for greater variation in forecasts of new, seasonal lines. In addition, the need for better capturing of Point-of-Sale (POS) data is critical to better understand quickly the needs of customers and respond to them (Moin, 2). This added insight of using POS data in conjunction with the CM system that Lord & Taylor has purchased from Harte-Hanks will also lead to more accurate forecasting.
In forecasting for the long-term, Lord & Taylor needs to track purchasing history of its top customers and better understand what is driving customer loyalty within the customer base attracted by the new branding. In addition, there is the…...

Macy's Discussion Questions And Executive Summary
A detailed description of the environment Macy's clothing store will face.
It appears that the department stores of the previous century are dwindling in size and popularity. The environment that was once the department store's territory has been consistently infiltrated by competition from every side. There are the up and coming specialty stores, the Internet, luxury chains, wholesalers and the shopping mall. Back in the early 1980s the number of department stores that spanned the country as national chains were 33. In the 21st century that number has declined to less than 15. The environment that Macy faces today is truly a challenge as the need for personal service has to some degree been replaced by convenience. For example with online stores, why go out to shop amidst a sea of traffic and shoppers to wait for services, when it is easier and much less time…...
According to Spring (2002), in 2002, YUM! Brands acquired a& and Long John Silver's; at that time, the company reported that, "The acquisition allows us to accelerate our multi-branding strategy and...to be expanded international leaders...in chicken, pizza, Mexican and seafood" (quoted in Spring at 203).
As noted above, the company's motto is, "Our passion is to put YUM on our customer's faces all over the world," and this marketing approach appears to be paying big dividends. Indeed, Spring notes that YUM! Brands is currently a leader in the construction and operation of themed environments: "For instance, in 1922, the a& logo was created by Roy Allen and Frank right to represent their two last names. Opening in Lodi, California, the men constructed an outdoor stand that looked like a root beer barrel. In 1923, a& developed the first car-hop service initiating the spread of drive-in restaurants. Later restaurants relied on…...

It is not that managers do not see the benefit in conflict that they eschew it; it is that conflict is high-risk and can have significant negative externalities, some of which linger with the organization for a long time. Managers are less enthusiastic about conflict because they are taking into account a longer time frame and the totality of externalities, which makes their views a reflection of better information and therefore more accurate than the views of academic researchers.
Recommendations. Carefully manage conflict -- do not use it wantonly. Conflict does not always create positive outcomes sufficient to outweigh the negative ones that are certain to accrue. Take steps to ensure that the conflict is task-focused and not personal. This will limit the amount of damage that accrues from conflict. Create conflict only when necessary -- large scale conflict for small scale problems is dangerous. Conflict is a powerful tool…...
