...Competitive Strategies La-Quisha L Hill | DANIEL R SERSLAND | Contemporary Business 11/03/13 Introduction This is a comparison of the two of the most popular carbonated beverages in the world Coke and Pepsi. Pepsi and Coke products are something I can’t live without. I will always have a Pepsi or a Cherry Coke. Pepsi and Coca Cola contrast each other on their taste, its associated colors and themes, and corporate culture. Coca-Cola and Pepsi differentiate in more ways than one. Coca-Cola has more of a coke flavor taste. It is fizzier than that of Pepsi. When you drink it doesn’t feel as hard on your teeth as Pepsi. Pepsi on the other hand has a sweeter taste than that of Coca Cola due to the addition of artificial sweeteners and leaves a mild chemical taste after you drink it. When drinking Pepsi compared to Coca Cola, Pepsi tends to have a more “fruity” taste to it. Pepsi-Cola was created in 1898 by Caleb Bradham, a North Carolina pharmacist who formulated the drink as a refreshing and energizing tonic. Today, it is one of the world’s most iconic and recognized consumer brands globally. Pepsi have a complementary food and beverage portfolio that enables us to provide more choices for our customers, and drives lower costs, productivity enhancements and new capabilities. The...

I feel that the employees perform their best and are more motivated to complete task when there are incentives involved. I want my establishment to be the type where all the employees are happy to be at work and there are no conflicts. I know that no company is perfect and that there are flaws in every establishment, but it is up to me to determine what those flaws will be and how we can improve them. Although people are motivated in different ways it is up to me to find out what that one thing is and make it better so that everyone involved is happy. I believe in creating a stress free environment for my employees and making sure that all of their basic needs are being met. Here at the Family Crisis Center I want to make sure that each employee is respected by each person that works in this office. We will have quarterly team building exercises to help promote communication within our company. By doing this it gives everyone from each department to have the opportunity to meet one another and also to meet any new additions that they have not yet had a chance to meet. This is also the perfect time in which each employee that is with the company will have the chance to meet any CEO or department head that they have not previously met...

...and Profit from it By Davila Epstein and Shelton Summary In this book the authors provide clearly defined methods and guidelines for creating and sustaining innovation strategies that best fit a specific company. The book covers a lot of topics about innovation from the management’s prospective. It starts from evaluation the innovation state of one company to how to design an innovation strategy while integrating /balancing innovations between technology and business model; it talks about how to manage innovation by fighting organizational antibodies (from bureaucracy to not-invented-here syndrome) and leverage technology to design innovation process; and finally it touches on how to measure and reward innovation using incentives, designing measures. Overall opinion My overall impression about this book is it is insightful as well as practical. I like the way how the authors explained innovation using matrices, tables, figures, cases instead of plain theories so that readers could use the tools to troubleshoot their company’s situation and relate real company cases to innovation and identify what needs to be improved to maximize value and profits. I also like the fact that this book looks beyond product, process innovation to address the business model innovation and the balance one company should find between innovating business model and technology. Something I do not quite like about the book it’s the cases selected. Some of the cases have already been used repeatedly...

...Mumbai: With the rise in attrition levels taking a toll on IT companies, the country’s largest IT services firm, Tata Consultancy Services (TCS), is all set to bring about a change in its human resource management. The firm has put forth a ‘resources management group’ (RMG) that will work towards various retention initiatives. TCS on Thursday reported a 13% attrition rate in spite of an average 10-13% wage hike that it gave this quarter. Though a second round of wage hike is not a possibility, vice-president & head for global human resources, Ajoy Mukherjee, feels the strengthening of people management and training will improve retention levels. For instance, the firm will bring about a rotation of employees for on-site locations. “With the decrease in on-site opportunities, we intend to rotate employees so that more people get a chance to be at the clients’ locations,” Mukherjee said. “There has to be a stress on aspirations and we have to ensure that business and HR work together to do that.” The industry, at the moment, is witnessing the experienced band of about 3 – 6 years contributing to the majority of the attrition rate. The RMG will also identify individuals that are keen on having newer challenging jobs. “The experienced employees have different aspirations and wage is not necessarily a reason for an employee to quit. For the IT industry, it is increasingly becoming an aspect of having a challenging job. And so, we would want to retain such employees by moving them...

...Dell is an American technology company based in Round Rock, Texas which develops, manufactures, sells, and supports personal computers, servers, data storage devices, network switches, software, televisions, computer peripherals, and other technology-related products. In 1984, Michael Dell while a student at the University Of Texas founded the company as PC’s Limited with a capital of 1000.00. He operated from his off campus dorm room where he strived to sell IBM PC compatible computers. He believed that by selling personal computer systems directly to the customer, PC’s Limited could better understand the needs of the customers. Michael Dell then dropped out of school to focus full time on his growing business after receiving 300,000.00 in expansion capital from his family. In 1985 the first computer of its own design was produced and called “The Turbo PC.” PC’s Limited advertised the systems in the national computer magazines for sales directly to the consumers and custom assembled each ordered unit. This offered buyers prices lower than those of retail brands. Although PC’s Limited was not the first to use this model, they were the first to succeed with it grossing over 73 million in the first year. In 1987 the company set up its first operations in the United Kingdom. Eleven more international operations followed in the next 4 years.

...Q1. What do you need in order to succeed in Formula One? All three team focused on different strategies as it changed within the environment and situations that they were faced by, but it was proved that a team needs all kind of elements to be able to achieve things together and to focus on every strategy that takes place. The team believed that if they wanted to get something right they had to look at it in all kind of elements, like the budgets, the designers, the package, the drivers, the engine and every aspect that might be the most important from the top to the bottom which results to a winning team. The strategy that takes place has to be covering all parts of the area and not rely on one only as this can cause to be short lived and cannot sustain long term success. The racing teams have to be updated with the latest technologies and to ensure a good relationship with its sponsors and suppliers. The attitude, enthusiasm and drive of the team is very important as they need to put in the extra effort if they desire to win and not just rely on the fast car but also they need to focus and build good relationship.

...as a top priority for the brand. Through designing high performance shoes and apparel, as well as sponsoring high-profile athletes and teams the brand has developed a reputation as being high-quality. Nike’s high tech products have allowed the brand to be perceived as innovative in the minds of consumers. Nike is continually introducing new products to the sports market as a way to improve performance. Through high performance and innovation, Nike has been branded as arrogant as the company has a high regard for the spirit of competition and portraying a rebellious spirit. b) Source of Brand Equity Description Logo Nike’s logo is a check mark. It is commonly referred to as the “swoosh.” As of 2000, 97 percent of American citizens recognize the brand logo. Nike has been seen as aggressive in the overabundance use of the “swoosh” with the symbol being placed on shoes, jerseys, hats, billboards and soccer balls across the globe. This ubiquity has been criticized as diluted the “swoosh”. Advertising Advertising has allowed Nike to portray its rebellious spirit and “nasty boy” image. However, this approach in advertisement has caused negative perceptions in countries such as Europe where it has come across as too irreverent. Sponsorships Nike has sponsored athletes such as Tiger Woods, Michael Jordan and John McEnroe. Americans idolize sport heroes allowing “winning” performance by sponsored athletes to correlate with “winning” Nike products. Through sponsorships Nike...
