Cum ajungi la un portofoliu optim de branduri

Cum ajungi la un portofoliu optim de branduri Atingerea unui portofoliu optim de branduri pe o anumita piata este unul dintre obiectivele cele mai dificil de atins, din cauza ca trebuie indeplinite foarte multe criterii, adeseori contradictorii, si nu exista retete general-valabile. Fiecare alternativa are avantaje, dezavantaje si, la extrema, riscurile ei. Daca ai branduri putine si nu acoperi toate segmentele importante ale pietei, pierzi oportunitatea de a castiga cat mai multi consumatori si de a-ti creste vanzarile. Astfel, pe piete, precum cea a detergentilor, multi consumatori cumpara atat un detergent premium pentru lenjerie si hainele copiilor, cat si un detergent ieftin pentru cuverturi. Iar a te cantona pe un singur segment de pret poate fi riscant, fiindca o crestere sau scadere considerabila a puterii de cumparare poate atrage schimbari importante in ponderea segmentelor pietei. Daca ai multe branduri in portofoliu, iti disipezi bugetul de marketing si nu iti sustii suficient brandurile care ar putea creste cel mai mult. Un portofoliu foarte mare de branduri este greu de sustinut si greu de gestionat - fiindca iti genereaza o mare complexitate financiara, in productie si in logistica. Portofoliul optim difera si de la o companie la alta, in functie de bugetul de marketing de care dispune compania si de masura in care are expertiza necesara pentru a face un

The Emotionally Intelligent Team

The Emotionally Intelligent Team Kelley Folkerts Abstract Within the past decade, a new construct, emotional intelligence, has emerged bringing with it great promise for organizations. Emotional Intelligence is defined as the accurate appraisal and expression of emotion in the self and others, the adaptive regulation of emotion in the self and others, and the utilization of emotion to facilitate performance (Salovey & Mayer, 1989-90). There exists little empirical research in the literature concerning confirmation of the construct due to lack of objective measures. Regardless of the construct's slow evolution, numerous researchers do insist that emotional intelligence is real and should be a valuable and necessary component of every workforce. The present paper will discuss emotional intelligence's origins, its application to teams, and its training possibilities with the hope that organizations will begin to value its importance. The Emotionally Intelligent Team Emotional intelligence has recently emerged in both academic and popular literature as a concept with the potential to provide new insights into the effect of emotion on human interaction. One type of interaction frequently found in the organizational context is that of team members. Numerous organizations are in the process of converting over to a team based approach, and because of this, emotional intelligence

I have then been asked to use my research to create an information pack about antenatal care and what she can expect. Justifying the Research Task I have chosen the research and create an information pack on the importance of antenatal care because I think tests that can be done reassure women that they are safe and healthy so that they can have a happy pregnancy. Antenatal care also allows women to get to know their midwives and ask questions if they have any worries before their delivery date. By creating an information pack this would let the expectant mother know what antenatal care is and how

Jobs in health and social care section. The two job roles which I am going to research and describe are a GP and Receptionist.

The two job roles which I am going to describe is a GP and Receptionist. GP The GP plays an important role in the GP surgery e.g. how the GP surgery is organised, funded and how well the GP surgery is doing which is published annually by the PCT based on views from registered patients. Becoming a GP requires special skills and personal qualities such as: . Strong scientific ability as medicine the field in which the GP is in is a science. 2. Excellent communication skills. This will allow the GP to identify their patients problems accurately which will mean that they will be able to give the necessary treatments. Consequently, this will mean that the GP will have less stress and job satisfaction. Also this is beneficial to the patients too as they will understand the treatment options they have and are more likely to follow the advise due to a good relationship of trust between the patient and GP. 3. Patience. This is because treatment can take a long time. Consequently this can mean that the patient meets the GP on a regular basis hence if the Gp shows patience the patient will also be more relaxed about their treatment. Also, patience is important because the main job of the doctor is to listen to the patients needs carefully and as the patient has not undergone full medical training like the GP they would take longer understanding the solutions to their problem.
