Scholarly Activity MKT

Throughout this course, you have learned about the elements of a marketing plan. This assignment will allow you to research the marketing methodology of a specific brand of an existing publicly traded company. Using a publicly traded company will give you access to more information to complete this assignment. Remember: Some publicly traded companies offer many branded products. For example, see Proctor and Gamble. It would be unfathomable to think that Proctor and Gamble, with revenue over $80B and 100K+ employees, only employs one marketing strategy. Thus, selecting a brand would be a better use of your time.

Scholarly Activity MKT. Include the sections below in your marketing plan:

Introduce your company and brand.
Competitive Analysis: Who are your company’s competitors, and how are they differentiated? Identify two or three strengths and two or three weaknesses of your company brand compared to a minimum of two competitor’s brands.
Marketing Strategies: What are the marketing strategies used by your company to manage the global customer brand? Use the four Ps in your analysis, which are listed below.
Product: Begin with a theoretical definition of a product. What is the product/service offered by your company? How did developing these new products affect the marketing strategy?
Place: Begin with a theoretical definition of place. What are the distribution channels used by your company/brand?
Price: Begin with a theoretical definition of price. What is the pricing strategy used by your company brand?
Promotion: Begin with a theoretical definition of promotion. What are the traditional and digital methods of marketing and promotion used by your company’s brand? Explain a minimum of three traditional and three digital methods.
Competitive Advantage: Identify whether your company brand has a competitive advantage in each area of the four Ps. Remember that your company brand could have a competitive advantage in one area and not in another. Include supporting rationale.

Scholarly Activity MKT. Your submission must be in Level 1 and Level 2 APA headings. You must include at least five scholarly sources (no blogs, no Wikipedia), and three must be peer-reviewed sources. Your scholarly activity must be at least six pages long, not counting the title page and references page. APA format is required. Use APA referencing style.

Management Philosophy

By AssignmentHelp Blog

Management Philosophy.

After 19 years of service, Paul was appointed as the warden of a small mixed-security prison in a rural community. He oversees 105 inmates and 51 staff members in a facility designed to hold 100 minimum and medium security prisoners. Over 80 percent of his correctional officers have three or more years’ experience on the job, and the treatment and education programs are run by qualified professionals with long work histories at the facility. Generally, Paul is happy with his job and doesn’t mind dealing with a few inexperienced correctional officers who tend to make minor mistakes. He occasionally gets some tough prisoners, but they settle down quickly because of the fair policies enforced by Paul. The overall environment of the prison is peaceful.

One day he had lunch with his friend Stephen, who is the warden of a large maximum-security prison located outside a metropolitan city with a high crime rate. Stephen oversees 720 inmates and 130 staff members in a facility designed to house 375 prisoners. Due to overcrowding and budget cuts, the prison offers limited treatment and education programs, most of which are staffed by volunteers. The majority of the inmates are repeat offenders with lengthy sentences, and 20 percent of them are serving life without the possibility of parole. Major disciplinary infractions occur on a daily basis. Although the overall atmosphere of the prison is orderly, there is constant tension between the staff and inmates, and maintaining security is an ongoing struggle.

Stephen’s views about his job are completely different from Paul’s. Stephen finds his job overwhelming, thankless, and stressful. This is surprising to Paul because both of them underwent the same training, worked together as fresh officers, and use similar managerial techniques. Paul begins to wonder how situational determinants are affecting his and Stephen’s ability to be effective leaders and managers.

Assess the reasons for the different patterns in the relationships that the two wardens have with their subordinates.
How can Paul and Stephen’s management philosophies affect the work patterns in their respective facilities?
How could work pattern and size of the organizational unit affect Paul and Stephen differently? How could it affect the desired management philosophy?
How could the prisons that Paul and Stephen work in differ with regard to crises? How could this influence their management philosophy? Use APA referencing style.

The Role of Leadership

By AssignmentHelp Blog

One of the obstacles to defining the role of a leader is the difficulty in defining what leadership entails. Think about the role of leadership in the criminal-justice system and answer the following questions in a 2- to 3-page Microsoft Word document:

How can you differentiate between the role of a leader and a manager in the criminal justice system with reference to the following:
- Operational functions of the organization, such as budget planning, recruitment and hiring, infrastructure maintenance, and performance reviews
- Relationship with subordinates in the organization
Are there any overlaps between effective leadership and effective management roles in the criminal-justice system?
Does being an effective leader in the criminal justice system conflict with being an effective manager?
Are leadership responsibilities tied to official job descriptions in criminal justice or could a criminal justice agent of any position be a leader? Why?
How do the different ways of interpreting and defining a leader’s role influence effective leadership? Explain with reference to the various definitions of leadership as a specialized role and a shared influence process.

Operations Management

By AssignmentHelp Blog

Operations Management. Your Furniture Store is a 30-year-old furniture manufacturing company producing medium-density fiberboard (wood composite) dining room, living room, and bedroom furniture in high volume at low cost for wholesale customers. The organization has a competitive advantage by providing high volumes at low cost while maintaining a quality product backed by excellent service. In the last 2 years, the company has slipped from #1 in its market down to #2 due to increasing customer complaints about the availability of its products (resulting in back-orders) and frustrations with the customer service provided by the company’s call center. As a result, the company’s new chief executive officer (CEO) has directed the chief operating officer (COO) and her operations management team to do the following:

Devise an operations management strategy to align with the company’s competitive advantage strategy, as well as utilize some, or all of the operations functions (e.g., marketing and sales, finance, and operations), to improve the customer’s experience relative to production and service.

Given the proposed operations management strategy, differentiate how the organization’s production operation and its service operation contribute to the company’s competitive advantage. Address the following.

Introduce the reader to how organization and operation strategies align to drive competitive advantage. Introduce the reader to the operations functions (marketing and sales, finance, and operations) and how they collaborate to manage a business operation.
Devise an operations strategy that aligns with the company’s current competitive advantage strategy.
Examine how the proposed operations strategy enables the company to improve its competitive advantage, including explaining to the CEO how the strategy utilizes operations functions (marketing and sales, finance, and operations) to achieve competitive advantage.
Given the proposed operations management strategy, differentiate for the CEO how the organization’s production operation and its service operation contribute to the company’s competitive advantage.
The conclusion should summarize key points from the research methods and sampling analysis discussed above.

Deliverable Requirements: The Operations Strategy and Competitive Advantage Analysis should be 5 pages in length. Be sure to cite sources using APA properly; include references and in-text citations.

Submitting your assignment in APA format means, at a minimum, you will need the following:

Title page: Remember the running head. The title should be in all capitals.
Length: 5 pages minimum
Body: This begins on the page following the title page and must be double-spaced (be careful not to triple- or quadruple-space between paragraphs). The typeface should be 12-pt. Times Roman or 12-pt. Courier in regular black type. Do not use color, bold type, or italics, except as required for APA-level headings and references. The deliverable length of the body of your paper for this assignment is 5 pages. In-body academic citations to support your decisions and analysis are required. A variety of academic sources is encouraged.
Reference page: References that align with your in-body academic sources are listed on the final page of your paper. The references must be in APA format using appropriate spacing, hanging indent, italics, and uppercase and lowercase usage as appropriate for the type of resource used. Remember, the Reference page is not a bibliography, but a further listing of the abbreviated in-body citations used in the paper. Every referenced item must have a corresponding in-body citation. Use APA referencing style.

Grant Proposal

By AssignmentHelp Blog

Grant Proposal. Good news! The Executive Director was able to get the board to approve seeking a grant for the new program. You will now need to determine what your specific needs are for the tutorial program.

The development of the problem/need statement is critically important, as this is the first impression the potential funder will have of your program and to determine its suitability for funding. The problem/need statement should answer the following questions:

Why is it that at-risk youth in your community need tutoring?
How does this program relate to your organization’s mission, goals, and objectives?
What will happen if this program is not funded?
And what do you need the money for specifically?

Here is what you know so far about the program:

The program is specifically for high school students, grades 9–12.
There is currently no community-wide tutoring program for high school students.
The current drop-out rate has increased overall the last several years and currently sits at 30%.
Students will likely have other needs met by other organizations that may contribute to their success in school (ex: food security)
Ideally it will not only improve graduation rates but also the number of students that go on to pursue some kind of post-secondary opportunity. Grant proposal.

Part 1 Grant proposal

To develop your problem/need statement, use the table provided in Winning Grants Step by Step, Worksheet 3.1A. Fill out the table using information provided in this assignment as well as research you complete on your community. See Worksheet 3.1B for an example.

Worksheet 3.1A: Statement of Problem Questionnaire (Example)Who? Where? When? What? Why? Evidence of Problem Impact If Problems Resolved Who is in need (people, animals, land, and so forth)? What? Why? (Get specific) What evidence do you have to support your claim? Impact If Problems Resolved? Where are they? (General: city/state; and specific: neighborhood, geography) Why does this problem exist? When is the problem evident? How is the problem linked to your organization?

Part 2

Using the information gathered in your table, write a 2-3 paragraph problem/need statement. This statement should be succinct and grab the attention of the funder and compel them to want to assist with solving the problem.

When developing a problem/need statement it is important to utilize statistics that clearly document the unmet need or problem (i.e., lack of tutorial programs); provide citations of persons who have authority on the problem, document appropriately the resources utilized for the development of the statement, use compelling and anecdotal stories of people to provide examples, and provide a coherent sense of urgency of the request.

The written proposal should meet the following requirements:

2-3 paragraphs in a Word document.
2-3 outside resources/references (these can be government websites, statistics, expert opinions, etc.). Each of the resources should be appropriately cited using the Strayer Writing Standards format. (References are not part of the 2-3 paragraphs.)

The problem or need statement should fully but succinctly answer each of the four questions outlined in the assignment instructions and should include statistics, citations, anecdotal stories, and examples that emphasize the need and provide a sense of urgency.

The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is:

Write a proposal for a grant. Use APA referencing style.
