n 2006, Hewlett-Packard Development Company LP became embroiled in a controversy over methods used to investigate media leaks from its board. HP Chairperson Patricia Dunn could have simply asked the directors who was the source cited in the story, sought an apology and gone from there. With some direct face-to-face communication, the story would likely have ended quickly. It did not. “Not only did investigators impersonate board members, employees and journalists to obtain their phone records, but according to multiple reports, they also surveilled an HP director and a reporter for CNet Networks Inc. They sent monitoring spyware in an e-mail to that reporter by concocting a phoney tip. They even snooped on the phone records of former CEO and Chairperson Carly Fiorina, who had launched the quest to identify media sources in the first place.”   The situation continued to escalate. For example, the New York Times reported that HP consultants even considered planting clerical or custodial…

For “Continuing Case:” The Santa Fe Grill,” page 20 - 21 During their senior year at college the owners prepared a business plan in their entrepreneurship class for a new Mexican restaurant concept. They initially intended to start the restaurant in Lincoln, Nebraska, where they were at college. But a demographic analysis of that market revealed that Lincoln did not match their target demographics. After researching the demographic and competitive profile of several markets, they decided Dallas, Texas, would be the best place to start their business. In examining the markets, they were looking for a town that would best fit their target market of singles and families in the age range of 25 to 50. The population of Dallas was almost 5.5 million people, of which about 50 percent were between the ages of 25 and 60. This indicated there were a lot of individuals in their target demographic in the Dallas area. They also found that about 55 percent of the population cared between $35,000 and…

The case of the Inflammation mystery 1. The Case of the Inflammation mystery as a horror flick, it might be called "The Rash." Scenario: On United African Airlines (UAA) flights over Lagos and Dares Salam, flight attendants begin to contract a strange, oozing rash on their faces, neck, chest, and hands. The fluid escaping from their inflamed pores looks like blood, though it is not, and so the rash is called "red sweat." Others are stricken by reddish blotches of pinprick-size dots. But either way, before a doctor can diagnose it, the mysterious rash disappears - until, perhaps, the next flight over the Africa. For baffled management, the story is all too real. For the past three months, more than 90 flight attendants have reported cases of the "red sweat", many of them more than once. Nearly all are women, and most have been stricken on United African Airlines-produced A300 Airbus jets flying Lagos, Dares Salam, and Ethiopia. No passengers or other crew have shown symptoms, and no…

Topic: Launch Management and Public Policy Issue Read and explain briefly what I means. “The worst thing about product liability is what they call strict liability. Now, I know it’s hard to prove negligence against a typical large corporation of today, but that’s no reason to go to the other extreme and say a company is guilty when there is no evidence it did  anything wrong. We market thousands of products in- volving thousands of people.   Strange things are going to happen. Employees are not robots—they make human errors. You’ve probably already made a mistake or two today, yet if you were in a business, you could be sued, found guilty, and then hit with a punitive damages ruling like a common criminal. That’s just not fair.”
