Once you have chosen the company, write a one- two-page analysis of what the company could have done differently to be successful in the specific market. Starbucks in the Australian Coffee Market. Australia proved to be the toughest coffee market for Starbucks. When Starbucks entered the Australian markets, it did not conduct much advertising activities. The firm knew that more customers were aware of its products. This is an activity that contributed to the failure of the product. Starbucks should have entered the Australian markets differently by engaging in intensive marketing activities. Intensive marketing could have assisted in always reminding the customers of the existence of the Starbucks coffee products. It could also have reminded the consumers of the reasons why the coffee products and services exist in the market. The marketing activities would enable the firm to communicate the essence of the brand with a lot of clarity. Starbucks should have put much consideration and analysis into the Australian culture. Managing the cultural aspects of the Australian culture could have acted as the best element for the success…

CHAPTER ONE Joi was a beautiful girl with a wild imagination; she always sits and wallows in her fantasies.  Despite her parent’s low level, she ever imagined being a princess that wore beautiful gowns made from silk, trimmed with jewels of varieties of colors.  The jewels sparkled so brightly; they would light up a room.  Joi would put on a dress from the closet in her bedroom, then dance and prance from there to her balcony, then to her backyard, as if she was at a royal ball or an opera dance competition. The soft summer breeze played music in her ears, as the sun created the spotlight for her entrance. “Ladies and gentlemen, presenting…….Princess Joi!” She swindled in a circular motion as she danced onto the stage, filled with many bulbs of different colors. The lights illuminated on her beautiful silk gown and reflected on the walls of the stage. The arena filled with people of different races from all walks of life; all clapped while sitting as Princess Joi made her way through the backstage onto the stage.…

Documentary/Photo Essay The story of the 1918 flu pandemic is a documentary posted on YouTube by CBS Sunday Morning on 8th March 2020. I chose it in the effort of finding information about epidemics that have previously affected the world and make a comparison to the current one of COVID-19. The new pandemic came as a shock to the current generation because a similar one occurred a century ago. The political leaders across the world seem clueless about how to secure the people from adverse health and economic effects. From that backdrop, I found it helpful to do research on previous pandemics and determine how people managed to contain it and restore normalcy. The documentary begins by describing the current situation created by the COVID-19 pandemic, especially in the state of Washington.  The documentary is a comparison of the current situation and 1918. It contrasts the effects and measures taken by the government.  The 1918 pandemic was fatal than the current one because it killed more than 650000 Americans and millions more across the world.  Comparatively, some measures such as…

Donald Trump Sacks White House Officials Donald Trump admitted that he sacked a high-ranking White House officer in part for the aide’s participation in the impeachment inquest. Lt Col Alexander Vindman, a Russia and Ukraine expert on the National Security Council (NSC), was escorted from the White House on Friday after the US president ordered his removal. Mr Alexander provided evidence to House committee trails that directed to Mr Trump impeachment on allegations of misuse of authority and impeding Congress concerning to a movement by the president to compress Ukraine into scrutinizing Joe Biden who is a political competitor. Mr Trump argues that he has no idea who Mr Alenxander was and has never spoken to him or has never met him. Mr Trump’s son, Donald Trump Jr, had earlier suggested that Lt Col Vindman and his counterpart Gordon Sondland, who evoked the US ambassador to the EU (European Union), got sacked for their statements in the probe. Mr Donald Trump was acquitted by Republican associates in the Senate, though some disclosed they did not dispute the accusations against him. Amid opinion that Lt Col Vindman was expected to get…

Quality improvement in hospital needs and perceived Barriers in wound care management Introduction Quality improvement (QI) is a strategy that has a real significance on the hospital’s needs and the perceived barriers in wounds. The effort to improve the quality of nursing in the hospital is critically analyzed to help identify the basic resources and knowledge required to manage wounds within hospital care. Wounds such as diabetic foot and pressure injuries have a real inconvenience to the patients and therefore lack of knowledge and confidence among the nurses would lead to poor performance level on the hospital requirements. QI, in this case, aims at issuing a cost-effective, reliable, and sustainable health care to help achieve the essential healthcare goals. The modalities of the work process need to work along with the professionalism and technicalities of its needs. This paper, therefore, analyses the quality improvement needs in a hospital set up to manage wounds and other nursing care requirements. Purpose Wound management and its perceived barriers are a definitive topic for quality improvement. The paper serves the purpose of illustrating how…

 An analytical summary Process Costing Companies use the process costing method when they produce identical units of products. For instance, companies like Chevron Corporation use the process costing method for petroleum products. Similarly, Wrigley Company uses it for producing chewing gum and Pittsburgh Paints use it for manufacturing paint (saylordotorg.github.io, 2020). There is a difference between process costing and job costing. In the case of job costing, unique jobs or products are produced. For instance, Lockheed Martin is renowned for advanced technology systems and Boeing is renowned for its airplanes. One of the key takeaways of the module is that process costing system can be used where identical products are produced in batches and the process is consistent as well. On the other hand, when companies produce unique jobs or products, they tend to employ the job costing method. In the case of process costing systems, the processing department tracks the costs. In the case of a job costing system, the job tracks the costs. In the case of process costing, production departments use direct materials. Therefore, it is possible…

Part-1 Design Explain how your design will be able to store the information of games, athletes and user predictions. Ans – To store game data Hashmap is used. Its key is String, and it will store Game type. Its value is List of athletes. User predictions are stored in Driver class instance variable “predictWinnerName.”   Explain how your class hierarchy will forbid a user from creating a “generic” type of participant (i.e., not an athlete nor an official) Ans- I have created abstract class “Participant” which stores common information of official and athlete. It stores name, age, and state. After that, I have created an Official class which inherits Participant class, and its additional variable is ID. Similarly Athletes class inherits Participant class, and it has additional variable like – ID, Athletic Type, last game point, total points, completeTime.   Explain the process by which your program will maintain a game and give the correct score to athletes according to their performance. Ans- To maintain game HashMap is used. For the correct score, I have added variable “totalPoints” that will…

Introduction It is important to note that in the contemporary environment, various styles of leadership can be applied. One of the common forms of leadership is through the incorporation of trait theory and behavioral theories. The other methods of administration involve the establishment of contingency theories of leadership. It is important to note that these two different theories of leadership are exceptional in the contemporary environment. The two approaches are, however, different. The difference is by comprehending what it is that they encompass. It is imperative to go through the gaps that theories have. Through this, it is possible to identify the strengths and weaknesses of each leadership theory. Consequently, determine the manner through which these leaders should approach. Differences The first theory to review and what it entails is the trait theory. According to the trait theory, some essential inborn characteristics set apart a leader from a non-leader. The personality traits are responsible for having a person carrying out practical work in the various posts accorded to lead. The trait theory is the implicit theory of leadership. Social physical…

Legalizing Marijuana in the United States (US)             Marijuana is the most commonly used illicit drug in the US. Despite the existence of federal law prohibiting its use and distribution, states have been experimenting on liberalization policies of the substance for the past five decades (Pacula & Smart, 2019). However, the scientific evidence that has been generated remains inconclusive regarding the impact of the guidelines. Pacula and Smart (2019) note that state decriminalization policies first emerged in the 1970s, while patient medical access laws were adopted in the 1990s. The states have more recently progressed to experiment with legalizing recreational markets, thereby resulting in a spectrum of marijuana liberalization rules. Decriminalization laws often seek to reduce the penalty of possessing small amounts of drugs. Therefore, the US should legalize marijuana because of its medicinal purpose, revenue generation benefits, role in crime reduction, and will promote racial justice. However, permitting its free use poses the risk of contributing to addiction. Patients with a wide range of symptoms and diseases have used cannabis as a self-management strategy because of its medicinal properties.…

Employment Law Introduction Generally, employment laws are often put in place to protect the employees from any form of mistreatment by their employers. Without the legal statutes that protect the employees and their terms of employment, workers can be highly vulnerable to unjust treatments by employers. Most of the employment laws protect the employees from different forms of discrimination, workplace health and safety requirements, minimum wage, alongside the child labor laws and the compensation of the workers[1]. In the past years, the response to the employment laws has not been admirable as some of the employers have not been adhering to the standards set in the constitution. The employment laws protect the workers from different forms of violence at the workplace. Before the introduction of some of these laws like the minimum wage laws, the employer would decide on the amount of salary that the employee would get, without any influence of the law. The employment law also protected the terms of contract upon which the employee was to work for the employer[2]. Therefore, before an employee could settle to…
