The department maintains a file of the company’s record of personnel. The branch managers are responsible for recruiting branch personnel who we trained at the head office from one week to one month. When the position of branch manager becomes vacant, the general manager pulls someone out from the Marketing Department to fill the vacancy. The performance of new branch manager is lackluster in the first few months. After a year, either their performance improves, or failed totally. When a BM’s position becomes vacant, the HRD immediately coordinates with the Vice President for marketing and without much fuss, facilitates the transfer of the most senior of the eligible’s to assume the BM’s post. This year, the vacancies for BM’s were unusually higher than last year. Last year’s vacancy for BM consists of only one and it was immediately filled up. At the beginning of the third quarter of this year, six vacancies have already occurred of which only three could be filled up. After five months, still no suitable replacement could fill the other three vacancies. I. CASE TITLE “LIGHTHOUSE INSURANCE COMPANY’ II.

I feel the function approach is one of the methods used in classification of activities that occur in marketing processes by breaking down the processes into functions. A marketing function is defined as a major specialized activity performed in accomplishing the marketing process, buying function, transportation function, processing function, storage function and selling function. Mintzberg approach contains figurehead, leader, liaison, disseminator, spokesperson, entrepreneur, disturbance handler, resource allocator, and negotiator. 2.Are you surprised at what Google found out about "building a better boss?" No I am not surprised, the project teams gathered more than 10,000 observations, from various performance reviews, feedback surveys and other reports.

...Case study: Warbings Office Systems Plc Background Warbings Office Systems is small but rapidly growing company, focusing on delivering and supplying office based products to a target market of small businesses in the U.K. and, increasingly, Europe. As the trend for homeworking continues much of their new business is in supplying office materials to individuals working from home. Currently offering some 18,000 different product lines in store and 39,000 via catalogue ordering, it intends to double its product turnover in the next three years by increasing its web-based ordering capabilities. With the marketing strapline ‘you need it we’ve got it’, Warbings aims to make office supply shopping as easy as possible for customers. Priding itself on being a ‘thoroughly modern company with old traditions,’ Warbings has used technology to evolve into a customer-focused business, striving to give each customer a ‘personal service second to none,’ with a variety of different, but easily accessible, ways of ordering and receiving products tailored to their individual needs. The more cynical of their staff occasionally reflect that the customers even dictate the lavatory breaks and bedtimes of the Warbings’ employees. Graffiti on one of the depot walls, that intriguingly reappears every time it is removed, says ‘you need it we bleed it’ and occasionally ‘Wosp stings’. The Warbings CEO is passionate about delivery and customer care and he is convinced that the way in which...

...newly-appointed Project Manager of a research team, you believe that you will be able to manage the project virtually from your office in London, even though the other six members are located in Munich. This will solve your personal dilemma as your family does not want to be relocated. The project has a six-month deadline. What factors should you consider in order to make this virtual assignment effective? Answer: First of all, virtual assignments is where the employees and managers are located in different areas as in this case, the Project Manager’s office is in London whereas the other six team members are in Munich. Thus, the Project Manager has to rely heavily on communication technologies such as telephone, email or video conference. In my opinion, the factors that has to be taken into consideration include effective use of technology, invest time in building relationships and trust, provide specific intercultural training and arrange face-to-face meeting occasionally. To bring a success to virtual assignments, I will need to be aware of the full range of technology tools available to us and become practices and proficient in their use. Without familiarizing the technology, it is difficult for managers to keep in touch with the team and it might end up slowing down the team performance. For instance, it will be a waste of time discovering the function of Skype tools during the virtual meeting. Besides that, as a newly-appointed Project Manager, trust and a comfortable...
