Explain each. * Identify the instructor’s and your goals for the course: meaning that you should know what the instructor wants you to know and learn by the end of their class as well as you knowing what you want to know and learn from the course. * Complete assignments before class: you should complete assignments ahead of class periods with the expectation of the day’s lecture being based upon the thought of your work already being done. The lessons should be done beforehand to have the ability to better understand next class’ lecture. * Accept the instructor: pay attention to the information that is being given despite the fact that the lecture may be boring or not fully understandable. Not all instructors are great lecturers, so with that in mind you have to pay attention to the information and take awesome notes. * Perform a preclass warm-up: this means to review what you’ve been taking notes on so far and where last class or lecture left off. You should basically refresh your mind and information to grasp what’s going on in your current class. * Choose the seat that promotes good note taking: Sit somewhere that inspires you to pay attention and understand what’s being fed to you. Choose a seat that gives good eye contact to let them know you’re present and understanding. The book lists 8 points for processing...

...Chapter 3 Discussion Questions: 1. Name and describe the elements of a company’s microenvironment and give an example showing why each is important. Microenvironment – consists of the actors close to the company that affects its ability to serve its customers—the company, suppliers, marketing intermediaries, customer markets, competitors and publics. When designing a marketing plan marketing management must consider different groups such as top management, finance, research and development, purchasing, operations, and accounting. All these interrelated groups form the internal environment. Suppliers are particularly important because they provide the basic resources the company needs to produce their products and are integral to the company’s overall value delivery system. The company needs to study five types of customer markets closely; consumer markets, business markets, reseller markets, government markets and international markets. According to the marketing concept, to be successful marketers must provide greater customer value and satisfaction than its competitors do. Thus, marketers must do more than simply adapt to the needs of target consumers. They also must gain strategic advantage by positioning their offerings strongly against competitors in the minds of consumers. Finally, the company’s marketing environment also includes various publics- any group that has an actual of potential interest in or impact on an organization’s ability to achieve its objectives.

...The key difference between laws and ethics is that laws carry the authority of a governing body, and ethics do not. Ethics in turn are based on cultural mores: the fixed moral attitudes or customs of a particular group. Some ethical standards are universal. For example, murder, theft, assault, and arson are actions that deviate from ethical and legal codes throughout the world. Whitman, Michael E., and Herbert J. Mattford. "The Need For Security."

...Week 2 Problems/Exercises: Chapters 3 & 4 Michael LaBarge DeVry University Chapter 3 2. List and describe the common skills and activities of a project manager. Which skill do you think is most important? Why? Common skills of a project manager include: interpersonal skills, leadership skills and technical skills. Interpersonal skills include the skills needed to effectively communicate with others what needs to be done and the process that should be taken to get it done. Leadership skills are important because as the project manager is in charge of the project, they must be able to successfully lead their team from initiation to completion of the project as efficiently as possible. Technical skills are the skills needed to understand all aspects of the system that is to be created or modified and what it takes to make that happen. Common activities of a project manager include: leadership, management, customer relations, technical problem solving, conflict management, team management and risk and change management. I believe that the most important skill that a project manager must possess is leadership. I think that with the right team, the PM can get assistance on the interpersonal and technical aspects of the project. However without the proper leadership, even the best team will ultimately fail, or at least have many difficulties. Also, many of the activities that a project manager must do are leader/management based. 4. Describe the activities performed by...
