Case Study: Uk Kitchenware

...tcc Commitment and Trust All members of a high-impact team must be fully committed to achieving the team's mission and goals. Each member must devote a reasonable amount of time and energy to advancing the team's mission and must be able to trust that all other team members are doing the same. Mistrust stemming from unbalanced workloads can lead to petty political moves, such as high performers slacking off to close the gap between team member outputs. Communication Effective teams must have open lines of communication. Communication must be honest and flow between all team members equally. Team members who understand each other's unique communication styles, or who agree on a single style of communication from the outset, are more likely to move the team in a productive direction that everyone understands and supports. Team members must never be hesitant to communicate with other members about issues and concerns, as well as new ideas or personal observations. Diversity of Capabilities Teams that possess a wide range of professional competencies can be more fully equipped to meet a wide range of challenges. When building teams, take time to ensure that each team member possesses skills and strengths that complement the skills, strengths and weaknesses of other team members. Bringing together people with common skill-sets can lead to a great deal of discussion with little subsequent action. Ensuring that each team member possesses a unique specialty allows team members to...

Kitchenware Case Study

...Case Study: UK Kitchenware This case study is a conflict between leadership and management. In this report I will be assessing how successful the change strategies have been. When two people acquire a large company with the intentions of improving it, it is possible, if the change isn’t managed correctly, for the change to fail and the company continues to be unsuccessful. Roger Gill says ‘change must be well managed, it also requires effective leadership to be successfully introduced and sustained’ (. Throughout the case study I will explain, using theories and evidence for support, that the change management has generally been successful. I will also point out areas where it has been less successful and areas that could, in the future, cause problems. One problem Nick and Dennis came about early on in their venture was the managing director. The case study says that the managing director was out of his depth and it was clear that the business was being managed not lead. The managing director didn’t have the expertise in order to adapt his management to the new leadership of Nick and Dennis. Peter Senge says that a successful organization needs ‘adaptive leaders’ who are ‘people that continually expand their capacity to create the results they truly desire.’ With this in mind Nick saw what needed to be done and took the role into his own hands. ‘This is unacceptable and we’ll do something about it starting today’ is what nick says and that approach proves successful...

Consumer Behaviour

...Note: Solve any 4 Case Studies Case 1: Cub Foods In 2003, Cub Foods had 78 corporate and 30 franchised stores. The chain built its success by focusing on its primary market: families of four or five individuals with adults ages 24 to early 40s who are informed. Value-conscious consumers – consumers like Leslie Wells. Leslie Wells’s recent expedition to the new Cub Foods store in Melrose Park, Illinois, was no ordinary trip to the grocery store. “You go crazy,” says Wells, sounding a little shell-shocked. Overwhelmed by Cub’s vast selection, tables of samples, and discounts as high as 30 percent, Wells spent $76 on groceries - $36 more than she had planned. Wells fell prey to what a Cub executive calls “the wow factor”. A shopping frenzy brought on by low prices and clever marketing. That’s the reaction Cub’s super warehouse stores strive for and often get. Cub Foods has been a leader in shaking up the food industry and forcing many conventional supermarkets to lower prices, increase services, or, in some cases go out of business. With Cub and other super warehouse stores springing up across the country, shopping habits are changing too. Some shoppers must drive 50 miles or more to a Cub store instead of going to the nearest neighborhood supermarket and bag their own groceries at Cub Foods. Their payoff is that they find almost everything they need under one roof, and most of it is cheaper than at competing supermarkets. Cub’s low prices, smart marketing, and...

Direct Marketing

...Direct Marketing by Geoff Lancaster © 1 Direct marketing explained Direct marketing is a collection of techniques that enables organisations to market goods and services directly to customers (business-to-customers or B2C). It is a pro-active approach to marketing that takes the product and/or service to potential customers rather than waiting for them to come to a store or other point of access. It is a form of ‘non-shop’ shopping and is sometimes referred to as ‘precision marketing’ or ‘one-to-one’ marketing. Rather than the marketing firm sending out a general communication or sales message to a large group of potential customers, even if these constitute a well-defined market segment, direct marketing tends to target specific individuals or households. In a business-to-business (B2B) context this would be an individual or a specific organisation or firm. Direct marketing is not just concerned with marketing communications. It is also concerned with distribution. In using direct marketing, the firm is making a choice to cut out the use of marketing intermediaries and sell the product or service direct to customers. This has implications for both channels of distribution and logistical decisions. Direct marketing comes in a variety of forms. It is one of the fastest growing areas of marketing and is being propelled by technical advances, particularly in the field of computer technology and the www. Academics and consultants have taken up direct marketing with enthusiasm...

...1 The trouble with Starbucks On a dark December morning three years ago, Howard Schultz bounded into a coffee shop in Dublin and started shaking hands with people in red T-shirts and green aprons before peppering them with questions. “Are you all new with Starbucks?” he asked the staff. “Who are the customers, and have they been to Starbucks before?” The store was the second Starbucks to open in Ireland, and Schultz, a tall, lean, energetic man who had bought the Starbucks brand more than two decades earlier, was in town to find out what the locals thought of his empire. Watching his customers order espressos, lattes and cappuccinos as the morning sun slowly lit College Green Square, Schultz explained why the ubiquitous coffee brand had become so successful. “The story is kind of boring,” he said. “We keep doing the same thing, year-in and year-out.” And that thing wasn’t really about coffee. Starbucks’ rapid expansion, which saw it open more than 10,000 stores in three dozen countries, was sustainable, Schultz argued, because of the unique experience people had at the stores. “The one thing I think is really important,” he said, “is the sense of community and human connection in every Starbucks store you go into.” In 2005, Schultz had every reason to be confident about the future of the coffee chain that he had joined back in 1982 (when it comprised just four stores in Seattle). That December, Starbucks’ stock was trading close to historic highs of about $30 a share. Its sales...
