...MGT 4630 Developing New Product and Services Coke Zero study by Antonio Cardoso M9820394 The aim of this report is to critically evaluate a new product that has been launched in the last 10years. The report will assess the performance of the new product, the strategy and process used by the company in developing and launching the product and to see if it was successful or not. What is a new product and what is a new product development process According to Crawford and Di Benedetto (2011) a new product is one that is either new to an organisation or a market and that it can be broken down into the following categories They go on to suggest that a new product goes through the following stages 1. Opportunity Identification and selection 2. Concept Generation 3. Concept/Project Evaluation 4. Development 5. Launch New Products Management Tenth Edition Crawford and Di Benedetto (p30, 2011) It is worth noting that the text goes on to say about the above processes that “the activities are not sequential but overlapping and it is not implied that one phase must be completed before work can begin on the next one” . I’m expecting my analysis of a real world product will not only show that the process overlaps but that it is more flexible/agile. I think that two phases can be completed at the same time, or that in some circumstances or possibly for certain products that the new products team might go from phase 1 to 2 to 4 and then possibly back to 2 before returning...

...is difficult to select a single stand out investment from the rest. One of Lori’s top investments was in “ReadeRest”. According to Jill Weinberger “Lori Greiner knew ReadeRest would be great for QVC and offered Rick Hopper $150,000 for 65 percent of the company. Hopper accepted. The product has had sales of $8 million-plus in the past two years and is available in more than 6,000 stores”. ReadeRest has proven to be a financial success for both Lori and Rick Hopper. Lori is highly invested in helping other individuals realize and achieve their goals. The Hero to Zero App is a free APP for both Apple and Android devices that with only thirty-three questions answered can quickly inform the user if they are onto the next greatest invention or merely sitting on a dud. All products that the Hero to Zero app deems a Hero are then sent to Lori for further review. Aside from appearing on ABC’s Shark Tank, the Hero to Zero app is ones best odds to get their product noticed by Lori as she does not jump at inventions seen through social media. Lori wants women to advance themselves into the dominant male market of sales. Lori told Forbes Magazine, “I was fearless,” said Greiner. “I knew I would make it work, and that’s the difference between successful entrepreneurs and people that don’t get somewhere – it’s that tenacity and drive.” That drive is inspiring women to rise above their feelings of inferiority and become the success stories they truly are.

...struggle with competitiveness with other players. For example, one of the main conflicts for T.J. and his teammates is trying to earn the lettermen jacket and that is a typical conflict for many high school athletes aswell. Setting and Mood The story takes place in Cutter High School, Spokane, Washington and All Night Fitness Gym where T.J. and his swim team practice daily. The novel is indirectly stated as a present time setting. The setting of the story gives the reader the feeling of sympathy, trust, joy, sadness, and pride. For example, the reader feels sympathy when he sees Chris Coughlin being shoved into a locker by Mike Barbour for wearing his deceased brother’s lettermen jacket. The reader also feels joy and pride when the zero-to-hero swim team finally earns their lettermen jackets. The story would change dramatically if the setting was different such as, if the story took place in the past, the main conflict wouldn’t be earning a jacket for swimming, it would be for surviving the longest during the Black Plague. Tone The tone of the main character is very confident and wise. In certain situations, such as when T.J. tells the team that he believes that the entire team can earn a jacket, his tone was very confident. When he talked to females in the novel and gave the advice, his tone was wise. “Mom, somebody’s got to teach that asshole that he can’t be doing that…” (144) the tone of T.J.’s voice when he said that was aggravated and revengeful. The tone shifts...

Even after killing Hector, he abuses the corpse by fastening it to the back of his chariot, and drags him around Patroklos's burial mound (24.17-20). On top of that, in Odyssey, Odysseus also illustrates the behavior of lack of empathy during the bloodshed happens in the hall where he killed the suitors mercilessly. Odysseus killed Antinous, who is the leader of the suitors by firing up an arrow straight to his throat (22.437). Even though Eurymachus already offered Odysseus to...

...He first started out as a social outcast for his blurred past and unusual strength, but by realizing his untapped potential, he begins a journey towards self discovery, becoming on of the greats. During the peak of his transformation into a hero, he becomes the city’s “guard”, protecting the people from the monsters and terrors of Hades. Through his bravery, he is able to give the people a voice, saying that the monsters can’t terrorize them anymore; for years, the inhabitants lived in fear for they knew of the horrendous creatures that lurked outside their city, but now, they no longer have to worry about death by supernatural. However, as Hercules was being the hero of the story, he found himself lost in the fame and fortune, loosing who he truly was. Instead of being heroic in order to regain his immortality and find his family again, he did it for the fame and the attention that he never had before. As a result of his failures and successes, Hercules is finally able to discover what it really takes to be a hero and is reunited with his family once and for all; as the common axiom recounts, one needs to fail in order to learn and succeed. From fiction to reality, identity creeps it’s way into modern day democracy, based on the foundation that the power goes to the...

...The notion I'm going to deal with is the idea of myths and heroes. First of all, I'd like to give a short definition, so according to me a myth or a hero is a person who inpires others with his positive thoughts, values or goals. We get totaly influenced and attracted by their good qualities which motivate us to do something good to the society. We can learn good qualities like patriotism, bravery, courage, non violence, compassion, humility, kindness. I would like to illustrate this notion through the theme of Influence and Role Models. We may wonder how can the actions of icons of the past have consequences on people nowadays? In order to illustrate the fact that what they do influence us, our lives, our beliefs, our values My presentation will fall into 3 parts: First of all, I'll concentrate on how role models inspire us by their actions that move us to do the same, then I'll analyse how they encourage us to be the best that we can be before finally focusing on the fact that they are selfless and teach us how to be. Nowadays, a lot of successful people were seen as other’s model. Most of us looked up to someone. It is wildly acknowledged that, role models can influence our lives. They can play an important role in shaping our society. They are figures who seem to embody everything that we think is good, all of the ideal traits that we would like to be able to possess for ourselves, and the kind of life that we would one day want to live. For instance they can provide...
