The strategic marketing plan created for Shavasana Hammock Café analyzes the market and proves the project’s relevance and the ability to build a competitive advantage in the future. Given that the company’s positioning strategy is based on uniting the benefits of healthy food and yoga, the methods of measuring business performance should reflect this bifurcation and take into account different categories of consumer experiences. In relation to Shavasana Hammock Café, the parts of the strategy that need special attention during plan review are the projected demand for yoga cafes, competition, and pricing/food choices. According to the original report, the popularity of restaurants that prioritize customers’ physical comfort and health is quite high due to the existing obesity trends. In some states, the prevalence of obesity continues to rise, especially when it comes to financially disadvantaged groups such as racial minorities (CDC, 2018). Therefore, it is possible to confirm the report’s initial conclusions concerning the steadiness of demand. As for the competitive environment, the report finds no manifestations of market oversupply, and this tendency continues since no new yoga cafes have appeared recently. As for the method of measuring performance, the report highlights the importance of such factors as the volume of sales and customer feedback. More specifically, measurements can be conducted through the use of the “restaurant capacity ratio” calculated with the help of four variables and the retrospective analysis of sales volumes (Wang, Lin, Kuo, & Weng, 2017, p. 115). Additionally, performance measurement will requir
Introduction Critical race theory emphasizes the socially constructed nature of race, considers judicial conclusions to be the result of the workings of power, and opposes the continuation of all forms of subordination. The major themes in this theory are: a critique of liberalism; story telling/ counter story telling and naming one’s own reality; revisionist interpretation of the American civil rights law and progress; applying insights from social science writing on race and the racism to legal problems; structural determinism, how the structure of the legal thought or culture influences its content; the intersections of race, sex, and class; essentialism and anti-essentialism; cultural nationalism/ separatism as well as encouraging black nationalism, power, or insurrection; legal institutions, critical pedagogy, and minorities in the bar; and the criticism and self-criticism. This theory is linked to the development of African American thought in post rights era. The historical origins of this theory provide a contextual understanding to contemporary legal debates concerning the effectiveness of the past civil rights strategies in the current political climate. Main text The theory is clearly defined most by its recognition of law as both a product and the promoter of racism and its commitment to race consciousness versus color blindness which is seen to have fostered ignorance with respect to the central role of racism in structuring North American societies. Although no one set of doctrines or methodologies single-handedly defines the theory, scholars and the activists where they have these commitments; exposing the relationships between the ostensible race – neutral ideas, like the rule of law, merit, and equal protection and the structure of the white supremacy and racism and also proposing ways to use the vexed bond between law and the racial power to transform that social structure and to advance the political commitment of the racial emancipation.( Crenshaw,1995) The theory has been effective in the lives of the black and the white men and women in dealing with their activities from the time of slavery and even at this present time. The history of the interracial relationships in America is a painfully loaded issue which is still evolving in the consciousness of the 20th century because of the first instances of the sexual i9ntergratiopn that occurred under the institution of slavery, our understanding of them is necessarily beset with the dominance, violence, and the rape. These relationships and the children produce the manifestation of power relationships between whites and the blacks in the contorted social atmosphere and even the present day the interracial relationships are often looked upon as being propelled by impure motives and compounded by the social dynamics that have been inherited in our culture. One of the themes addressed is that of th
Introduction Management is an essential part of the maintenance of manufacturing and services; it is important to develop leadership competencies with managers because these people are responsible for dealing with the rest of the employees. Managers can establish and introduce different strategies which can be useful in terms of further employees’ satisfaction and effective work. Strategies and measures introduced to increase productivity and get feedback from the employees in terms of efficiency facilitate the development of relations between the management and employees. As suggested by Kaplan & Norton (2007), translating the vision, communicating and linking, business planning, and getting feedback and learning are basic elements of the management performance strategy. In this respect, everyone wonders how the Google corporation has managed to introduce triumvirate leadership in terms of management and potential of every separate person (Nelson & Quick, 2008, pp.432-433). The case of Google The triumvirate approach has been chosen eventually when two founders of Google Sergey Brin and Larry Page had recruited Eric Schmidt as none of them was able to fulfill duties of the chief executive officer introducing leadership approach, training, and other issues which make the management so important for everyday maintenance. Though the management was concentrated in hands of one person in terms of common management strategies, suchlike development of leadership competencies and ensuring a healthy work environment, it is necessary to mention that the founders of Google were engaged in engineering, product development, and technological issues. As Google grew strong it required profound management. Turk (2007) argues about the role of a manager in the company with regard to the inborn abilities and leadership. Consequently, Google has three leaders that perform the roles of three managers where Page is responsible for products, Brin deals with technological aspects and advertising, and Schmidt contributes to the day-to-day work of the company and establishes relations with news media (Nelson & Quick, 2008, pp.432). The division of responsibilities can be considered one of the main reasons for successful maintenance and management of Google; triumvirate leadership is the source of success and power because no party interferes with the area of activities of other parties, though their actions are aimed at reaching a common goal. Another peculiar feature of Google’s success is the time allocation which presupposes that employees should divide their working hours into three parts in certain proportion where seventy percent should be spent on advertising and search, twenty percent should be allo
Introduction Brand Jordan is a global shoe and apparel brand synonymous with the high-end quality products. The brand is associated with a sporting legend, Michael Jordan. In 1984 while Jordan was signed by Nike to an endorsement deal. The year 1985 is a significant year to brand Jordan. This is the year when Nike revolutionized basketball shoes with their release of Air Jordan. Unlike shoes of the time, that were plain, Nike brought in a different kind of shoes that were colored red and white. The NBA initially banned the shoe because it violated existing league dress code rules. This created a debate in the media that engendered widespread national coverage. After a long and successful sporting career, Jordan together with Nike created Brand Jordan (David 65). Discussion What are the key-brand attribute of Brand Jordan? The key-brand attributes of Brand Jordan is the jump man logo that shows on both the shoes and apparel. When Michael Jordan retired in 1998, Nike was prepared and in the following year, Brand Jordan was launched as a part of Nike. Inc. The brand had jump man logo branded on all Brand Jordan products. The brand has since inception had athletes endorse it with Michael Jordan being its leading former athlete endorsee. The brand has seen sporting greats such as a basketball player ray Allen, boxer Roy Jones and a baseball player Derek Jeter. Athletes’ Endorsements have always been a big part of Brand Jordan as it gives authenticity to the products and an emotion connection with the brand. As of 2006, the group of athlete endorsers collectively known as Team Jordan consisted of thirteen individuals. They consisted of seven basketball players, two footballers, one boxer, and one musician. The brand has also enjoyed unofficial and unpaid endorsements from celebrities such as Eminem and Fat Joe (David 98). Another attribute of the brand is the number of products especially shoes that they produce. The company produces a limited edition of Air Jordan. This has not only improved the balance sheet of the company but has also helped it cut a niche in the footwear market. Even after more than 20 years, every release of the Air Jordan is anticipated by fans who eagerly snatch them from retailers around the world. The company has remained a leader in the footwear industry in terms of products design, technical features, and innovative packaging (David 105). The brand produces a range of products that are targeted to different segments of the market. The company produces Air Jordan, a footwear line that retails for more than $120 dollars, which targets the high-end market. On the other hand, they produce training kits through the Brand’s line. This caters for training and performance needs of athletes across all sports. How well does each Team Jordan candidate match up with this brand attributes? Each of team Jordan candidate matches up with the brand’s attribute. The Team consists of per
Digital Opportunities The emergence of information technologies has altered the way people behave, communicate, and do business in the modern world. Despite such great popularity and widespread use of technologies, many of their possible uses remain under-discovered. IT enterprises work on an extensive application of the benefits provided by technology to ensure performance improvements in the field of the event industry. Event Technology It is hardly possible to imagine the modern event industry without the use of technology that benefits all aspects of this sphere. The scope of technological innovations that make the event industry rapid development possible include such digital tools as ticketing solutions, event chatbots, event management platforms, digital signage widgets, and apps, virtual reality technologies, and others ( All-In-One Event Management Solution ). Not only do these elements facilitate the event industry opportunities, but they also shape the industry in a new modernized way, where events are thought to be technology-driven efforts. Absher Sava Events is one of the companies that engage in the development of new technological ideas for better event management. QITCOM 2019 allowed the company to launch a new digital assistant called Absher. This technology is aimed at improving customer satisfaction through service branding. Despite branding efforts being a feature of marketing, the company applies this idea to the facilitation of customer support. It is thought that the addressing of customers’ experiences when using a service will ensure customer loyalty to the brand. Absher and Messaging Platforms The newly developed digital assistant Absher is a tool that is available to its users 24/7 to ensure the most effective performance. Since the latest outbreaks in digital technologies in the field of event management are closely intertwined with messaging platforms. The Absher digital assistant works with some well-known messaging platforms and enables the user to benefit from the communication to the fullest. The assistant employs particular conversational apps and bots to process and navigate the information throughout the conversation to minimize customers’ efforts and save time. Such a format of managing conversations is brand new and enables users to provide context, share content, and manage secondary arrangements without leaving the messaging platform. How Absher Works Indeed, when engaged in a chat via Messenger, the digital assistant processes the information shared through the platform to help with arrangements. For example, when a specific location is mentioned in the conversation, Absher will automatically find it on a map, then a user can contact Uber, and request a ride to the designated destination. While all these processes are automatically run by the assistant, the customer continues the conversation without worrying about the transfer arrangements. Such a service will be beneficial in terms of time management because it vastly employs the opportunities of digital devices and the In
Introduction Innovation in Information Technology [IT] has led to the development of sophisticated smart devices, technologies, and systems. The technologies have transformed different economic sectors with one of them being the education sector. Different countries are implementing emerging technologies in the education sector to improve teaching and learning. This move has led to the emergence of the concept of smart education. Green (2013) defines smart education as the “integration of educational institutions and faculty members to carry out joint educational activities through the Internet” (p. 437). Therefore, smart education involves the modernization of the entire education techniques, methods, and processes. Moreover, smart education advocates a collaborative development of education content. Europe and Asia are amongst the leading regions that have integrated the smart education concept. It is projected that smart education will enable the young people to acclimatize to the rapidly changing environment because it leads to the creation of flexible and interactive learning environment. Furthermore, smart education enables students to access learning content from different parts of the world. Thus, smart education will expand the learning boundaries. Green (2013) corroborates that the core purpose of smart education is to transform the learning process by making it more effective. Singapore ranks amongst the first East Asian countries that have integrated smart education. The country implemented smart education in 1997. The implementation of the smart education in Singapore is based on a well-designed Master Plan (Hunter, 2015). Similarly, Dubai is revolutionizing how education is offered within the country. The government launched a smart learning initiative in 2012 with the objective of integrating the students, parents, administrators, and teachers into a unified e-platform (Hunter, 2015). The purpose of this paper is to compare the implementation of smart education in Dubai and Singapore using diverse strategic analysis tools. Porters Five Forces Degree of Rivalry Dubai is in the process of establishing smart learning in the education sector having introduced the program in public schools in 2012. The Dubai government launched the first smart learning program during the 2013/2014 academic year targeting 100 new schools. Thus, the degree of rivalry regarding the application of smart learning amongst the learning institutions in Dubai is moderate. One of the factors that have made the degree of rivalry moderate entails the view that the concept is in its formative stage. Smart learning in Dubai is mainly available in public schools as opposed to the private sector. The country does not have a well-established ICT infrastructure to enable extensive application of smart learning. The Dubai government is in currently rolling out high-speed networks, classroom smart boards, and the latest electronic technology in schools. These components form the basis of a vibrant smart education. On the other side, the Singaporean education system ranks amongst the best systems globally. The quality of t
Problem Retained surgical objects represent one of the greatest health care problems. In the United States alone, about 1,500 people face the problem of surgical objects accidentally forgotten within their bodies every year (Science Daily, 2007). Two-thirds of all objects left accidentally in patient bodies are sponges (Science Daily, 2007). The legal and medical consequences of retained surgical objects are difficult to predict. The case of Hopewell Hospital is no less problematic. Like in any other hospital, several doctors working for Hopewell Hospital deliver care not of very high quality and make more mistakes than their colleagues. Dr. Cutrite once used to be one of the most outstanding medical professionals in Hopewell Hospital. However, his professional and mental state has recently deteriorated, and he is no longer capable of delivering high-quality medical care. One day after a surgery, the director of clinical services learns that Dr. Cutrite might have forgotten a plastic needle protector in the patient’s belly. The operating room supervisor is not sure, but the risks are rather high. The problem becomes evident only when the records are reconciled. The patient has already gone home, and Dr. Cutrite believes that the retained object cannot do her any harm. The main problem is what to do with regard to this case and how to avoid the health, legal and ethical risks associated with retained surgical objects. Options In this case, Dr. Cutrite and the rest of the medical staff can choose to:  1. Get the patient back to the hospital and initiate a series of medical examinations, to ensure that the needle protector is there/ not there;  2. Keep silence and hope that the plastic needle protector will not cause the patient any harm;  3. Get the patient back to the hospital for a fictional reason and, afterwards, decide how to act without informing the patient about the problem. Arguments for each option As always, each option has its strong and weak sides. The ethical controversy affecting this case cannot be ignored. The case can potentially affect the public image of the hospital. Therefore, the staff should be particularly cautious in its decisions and actions. First, the hospital can call the patient and ask her to get back to the hospital for a thorough medical examination. The hospital will need to inform the patient about the situation, that a plastic needle protector might have been left in her body. Predicting the patient’s reaction to the news is virtually impossible, and the hospital should be prepared to deal with the patient’s anger. However, both informing the patient and performing a thorough medical examination is vital for the patient’s health. The fact is that “clinical morbidity resulting from retained foreign body includes persistent inflammation, obstruction, or septic co
Analysis of Morals Morality as implied in philosophy entails a distinctive system of behavior that concerns the standards of either wrong or right actions. As a philosophical word, morality embraces three concepts namely the moral standards appertaining to behaviors, moral identity which distinguishes an individual who is able to commit a wrong or a right action, and moral responsibility which refers to human conscience. In fact, in the current world, morality emerges as a complicated multicultural issue. It has various synonyms including virtue, goodness, principles and ethics. This implies that morals significantly affect our society, conscience, behaviors and human ultimate destiny. Thus, the universal definition of morals is that it is a study associated with human being actions as an upshot of beliefs on what is deemed to be bad or good, wrong or right in as far such actions materialize as either effective or useful (Trusted 68). Morals in philosophy actually deal with what is believed to be right as well as what the society, culture or groups generally do. Morals therefore signify what the society really does as relates to the accepted code of conducts and standards. Moral concepts and principles Scores of individuals are quite accustomed to the common sense mortality which is derived from norms including treat others the same way you expect others to treat you, do your best, always yearn to be fair and keep all your promises. In addition to such coherent behavioral guides, morality similarly distinguishes values which are universally held as being good. For instance, morality values entail justice, love, community, happiness, charity, freedom, courage, honesty, integrity and knowledge. These ideals are familiar to most individuals if they are not inclined to a particular religion. However, the moral principles founded on common sense might be deemed inadequate when complex situations are taken into consideration. Often, philosophers draw on these principles when developing theoretical concepts to assist in guiding actions and have hypothesized ethical philosophies and standards founded on them (Trusted 68). From the historical perspective, the most prominent moral concepts include natural rights concept, utilitarianism as well as the divine command theory. The natural rights concept basically holds that each individual has a natural right to property, life and liberty. All of these might merely be limited via the necessitation not to contravene other individuals’ rights. Occasionally, it has further been imagined that these natural rights considerably anchor on some religious underpinning. On the other hand, utilitarianism embraces the fact that morality ought to be guided through the utmost excellence for the maximum number. This concept implies that happiness or utility for each and every individual must b
