The values of the leadership at Chick-Fil-A are clearly expressed in the opinion of Dan Cathy, they do not believe in same-sex marriage. "We are very much supportive of the family -- the biblical definition of the family unit" (Brumfield, 2012). I believe that every American should be afforded the freedom of speech. However, we must understand that everyone will not always agree with the statements we make.

Chick-fil-A is known to be closed on Sundays. That is a policy that they have started with and are continuing to pursue. No matter the back lash they have gotten for it, they have stood behind their beliefs.

As for ‘treatment’ these organizations use, it has been said “that (the) damage they inflict on individuals can be deep and lasting” (Condon, NBC News). One individual, Samuel Brinton, described the methods used in conversion therapy as “mental torture.” Even with two years of therapy, he is still not “cured” and now needs constant mental support as he often struggles with severe depression. Chick fil A continues to support these conversion organizations even though the American Psychological Association (APA), released a study in 2008 that stated “Homosexuality is not a mental disorder, and thus is not something that needs to or can be

Going the “second-mile” is Chick-fil-A’s competitive advantage. “The company stays true to core business principles, which are based on biblical principles, by closing all restaurant doors on Sundays” (Battaile, 2013). By closing on Sundays, they are allowing a day of rest for all of their employees. As well as it allows it allows them “an opportunity to worship and/or spend time with their families” (Battaile, 2013).

Planning system weaknesses: To begin with, fundamental assumptions, such as new plants, inventory carryovers, packaging trends, etc., which are used for initial sales forecast, are entirely made by corporate headquarters. However, the divisional managers assume full responsibility for the estimates they submitted to the corporate head office. As a result, they have to make efforts to increase the overall accuracy of forecast and avoid making changes in subsequent reviews of the budget. Moreover, each product line uses the same forecasting method. It is ineffective for the company to make accurate budget since factors affecting each product line are different, such as industry trends, customer preferences and so on. Lastly, instead of plant managers, the district sale managers raise the sales budgets. However, the plant managers are held accountable for this budgeted profit number, which is connected with their performance and is not controlled by them.

As discussed in our group, we think San Fabian Supply Company and MacDowell Corporation should find a way to accomplish win-win, and selective distribution may be a good way.
