...capacity of one party (the "agent") to influence another party (the "target"). Authority involves the rights, obligations, and duties associated with particular positions in an organization or social system. A leader with direct authority over a target person has the right to make requests consistent with this authority, and the target person has the duty to obey. Outcomes of Influence Attempts One useful basis for evaluating the success of an influence attempt is whether the immediate outcome is what the agent intended. Commitment -The term commitment describes an outcome in which the target person internally agrees with a decision or request from the agent and makes a great effort to carry out the request or implement the decision effectively. Compliance- The term compliance describes an outcome in which the target is willing to do what the agent asks but will make only a minimal effort. Resistance- The term resistance describes an outcome in which the target person is opposed to the proposal or request, and actively tries to avoid carrying it out. Influence Processes The explanation for the influence of one person on another involves the motives and perceptions of the target in relation to the actions of the agent. Instrumental Compliance- The motivation for the behavior is purely instrumental; the only reason for compliance is to gain some tangible benefit from the agent. Internalization- The target person becomes committed to support and implement proposals by the...

...CREATIVE BRIEF ASSIGNMENT The Product A new traditional advertising campaign that I would like to introduce to the College of Business is a Florida Tech College of Business app. I believe that technology has played a major part in advertising campaigns lately and there is an opportunity for the College of Business to recognize this. The app will be for potential students and their parents. In the app there will be newsletters for them to read about what is going on in the College of Business. The app will also consist of explaining what COB is about and what they have to offer their potential students. Giving some statistical information about Florida Tech would be the best way to show the new students and their parents how ideal Florida Tech is among the other schools. The background on the faculty and the courses they teach will be available through the app. A calendar of COB campus activities, such as their ice cream social, the COB barbeque and other events will also be available for potential students and their parents to see. The idea of this would be to show parents that there is an opportunity for their child to get involved in campus life through the College of Business and not through illegal activities. The reason for offering a College of Business app is for potential students and their parents to have easier access to COB and not having to go online and look around for the Nathan M. Bisk, College of Business webpage. The Opportunity or Problem: A reason...

She sees how Hank separates the men and the women instructor to have a meeting about work procedure, “After introducing himself and Harika, he took the men to one room, and Harika took the women to another,” (Cohan, Fink,Gadon, Willits & Josefowitz, 2013). That was the first thing that bothered her because she could not understand what it is that had to be said to only the male instructors that could not also be said to the female. Although this bothered her initially, she decided to find a positive side to the situation, and went along with it. The more she went along with what was going around the job place, it seemed like more and more sexist behaviors were being revealed and worst of all, being condoned by Hank. This is proven by the last situation in which Hank verbally disrespects Miranda in front of the other instructors about a situation that was probably more his fault than hers. “Why did you tell those two people that they could have a private lesson at 10 tomorrow?” (Cohen, Frank,...

...754 • Case 24 • ABC Chemical Company Goes Global The ongoing economic recession in Japan will continue to erode consumer purchasing power and confidence; luxury goods will suffer as consumers move toward cheaper products. This is already becoming evident: consumption of cognac and premium whisky is declining in Japan. Since TWO DOGS was launched in 1998, there has been massive growth in the sales volume of cheaper products, such as ‘‘Can Chu-Hi’’ and ‘‘Hyoketsu Chu-Hi’’. These locally made Japanese brands are, in convenience stores, almost half the price of fully imported TWO DOGS. DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. Should TWO DOGS maintain its premium price and thus risk losing volume growth to cheaper products during the recession? 2. What effect would lowering its price have on its brand positioning? 3. Would lowering its price require TWO DOGS to change to a licensing strategy? If so, should local production be in Japan? Or in nearby Asian countries with lower manufacturing costs, such as China or Thailand? 4. What other options does TWO DOGS have? Could the company change to a multi-brand strategy by introducing a new brand targeting the low-end segment? C ASE 24 ABC CHEMICAL COMPANY GOES GLOBAL Driven by competitive pressures, and the attractiveness of the industry’s fastest growing market in the world, a U.S.-based chemical manufacturer, ABC Chemical Company (name changed to maintain confidentiality) considered expansion into Asia, specifically, China.

...NESQUIK THE PROBLEM When Nestle introduced Nesquik Ready to Drink (RTD), it faced considerable challenges. The Nesquik RTD product was the latest entry into a competitive market vying for acceptance by perhaps the most difficult target to reach, males 12-24, a target that is always “on the go.” And even more daunting, Nesquik’s two major competitors historically outspent the brand in annual media expenditures.

Outdoor was considered an excellent medium to reach this “on the go” target. When we set out to launch our new plastic bottle we had the challenge of not only reaching the 12-24 male target, but reaching them near where a majority of purchases were made–at c-stores. The plan combined traditional outdoor elements such as 30–sheets and 8–sheets with non-traditional elements such as wild postings, c-store posters, aerial media and wrapped buses to cut through the clutter. The outdoor program was extremely effective at visually demonstrating the benefits of our new bottle (grippability, gulpability and portability) to our target consumers. In the six months following the launch of the 16 oz. bottle, Nesquik consumption increased +111%! – Reid Leslie Nestle’ Nesquik Marketing Manager Nestle’ USA Background: Nesquik first appeared on America’s grocery store shelves in 1948.
