Concerti Revews

 
This paper requires previous musical knowledge. The goal is to watch 3 concertos (EACH OVER AN HOUR) and then write a 1 and a half page review per each (I am paying for an extra half page). I really don’t have the time to do it because I have more classes and their respective finals so I’ll probably base my final review on this. Please know you need to have some knowledge on music to get this done.

CarMax – Case study

 
It will focus on applying course concepts by re-examining an experience within an organization in which you were an active member. (The organization is “Used car dealer – CarMAX)

Part 1: Case Description (investigation stage)
You will organize and conduct the Discovery stage, in which you identify a significant issue that requires an organizational response involving key decision makers.
You will research and explain the context for the case, focusing on the organizational frames and necessary background information.
You will identify possible solutions and possible outcomes, and provide supporting rationale.

Part 2: Case Analysis and Solution (consulting stage)
Here you will select and explain the main issue and underlying causes, and how you acquired this information and conclusion. You will review the potential responses (solutions) and recommend one or more, using sound logic and theory.

Four frames:
Structural frame:
1. We might see an emphasis on goals – that don’t mention people
2. Division and specialization might be very clear
3. Coordination and control may be important
4. Problem solving – looks at structure
5. Technical qualifications, not personal qualifications
6. Other perspectives (frames) may receive less attention

Human Resource frame:
1. We might see people as a reason for the organization
2. Work may be designed so that people can see the meaningful whole of what
they do – how they fit.
3. Individual wishes and needs might get attention
4. There is emphasis on developing people
5. Compensation might reflect “people emphasis”
6. HR has a human resources strategy
7. Supervision may focus on people and relationships
8. Problems are solved by considering people and relationships
9. Groups and teams are used
10. Communication is relatively plentiful, and both horizontal and vertical

Political Frame:
1. Important decisions focus on who gets what
2. Look for bargaining, negotiations, stakeholders
3. Is this frame where we might look at ethical challenges? Why?
4. During stressful times – more politics
5. Do all goals originate at the top of the organization?

Symbolism:
1. What something means is most important
2. Symbols overcome uncertainty and ambiguity
3. Symbols create patterns of meaning and purpose
4. Symbols are visible parts of culture; culture defines
groups and organizations with boundaries.

Pass Requirements

A “pass” for the module is recorded with a weighted average grade of at least 40%, as long as the marks achieved in each element of assessment are 35% or above. Where the average mark for the module is 40% or above but an element of assessment for that module is below the 35% threshold, that element must be subject to a re-sit. All failed elements of an assessment must be subject to a re-sit at the next available opportunity, normally the following term. You need to have submitted both elements of assessment to qualify for a re-sit.

Late submission

Assignments need to be submitted electronically in Moodle, by the due date, through Turnitin.

Assignments submitted after the due date without extenuating circumstances will be treated as a “fail” and given a mark of “0”.

No submission

Students who do not submit either one or both of their assignments are not entitled to a resit and will therefore fail the module. As a result of their failure to pass the module, they will automatically fail to qualify for a Masters Award.

Tylenol Research, Muddle

 

Please research the Tylenol cyanide case from 1982 and how Johnson and Johnson handled the crisis.

Please also read the following: “Patients versus Profits at Johnson & Johnson: Has the Company Lost its Way?”

While researching Tylenol, consider the difference in approach the company may have taken in today’s media environment (24/7 news cycle, social media, etc.). With this in mind, complete the Muddle assignment below.

Muddle

You work in Corporate Communications at a large, publicly-traded pharmaceutical company, Muddle and Company. One of Muddle’s most successful drugs, Arthroxix, an arthritic pain medication, is marketed in over 80 countries with worldwide sales totaling $2.5 billion last year alone. Several former Olympic athletes, now in their 60s but still very popular, are the spokespersons for the product and are featured in the advertising and marketing campaign.

While researching this particular class of drugs amidst claims of digestive track and other related problems, the FDA unexpectedly found a higher than normal incidence of stroke and heart problems among patients taking Arthroxix, though the incidence of digestive track problems was very low. Researchers at Muddle have also discovered the correlation between the drug and a higher rate of heart attack or stroke in patients. To date, three Arthroxix users have died from heart attacks allegedly brought on by the drug. The families of the victims have begun litigation procedures against Muddle.

The drug continues to be touted as safe and effective among many physicians, and has been positively reviewed in the Journal of American Medicine. But now the EMEA (European Medicines Agency, Europe’s equivolent to the FDA) is conducting its own research on the drug, which is sold widely throughout Europe. Due to the increased scrutiny by officials in the U.S. as well as Europe, and the discovery by Muddle researchers of higher rates of heart attack and stroke in patients, some members of your crisis team are urging a recall, while others think it is too premature and believe a recall to be too extreme.

Choose one course of action and develop a crisis communication plan as if you were the head of the Corporate Communications office at Muddle. If the crisis team decides to keep the drug on the market, what will your statements be to your constituents? Or, if the crisis team decides to recall the drug, what would your message be and how will you communicate it? Describe the communication vehicles and develop potential Q&A. Include a description of the steps you intend to take, and a list of who is on your crisis team and their roles and responsibilities.

Assessment 2:

In this assessment you will choose two areas of difference to compare and contrast e.g. race and disability; sexual orientation and religion and assess how organisations/groups who organise around these identities have succeeded or not in their attempts bring about justice for their communities. In each case you will:

1. Compare and contrast philosophies and objectives of organisations/groups(why they were established, what is that they were/are trying to achieve

2. Compare and contrast strategies and tactics that organisations/groups utilised in their efforts to bring about change.

3. Assess how these organisations/groups activities have been perceived/responded to by the wider public (Media, Government, Policy Makers, public attitudes)

4. In making the comparisons between communities/organisations/groups what does your analysis tell us about how one should fight discrimination in the UK and with what expected results?
