...What is force field Analysis? Force field analysis is a management technique developed by Kurt Lewin, a pioneer in the field of social sciences, for diagnosing situations. It will be useful when looking at the variables involved in planning and implementing a change program and will undoubtedly be of use in team building projects, when attempting to overcome resistance to change. Kurt Lewin assumes that in any situation there are both driving and restraining forces that influence any change that may occur. Driving Forces: Driving forces are those forces affecting a situation that are pushing in a particular direction; they tend to initiate a change and keep it going. In terms of improving productivity in a work group, pressure from a supervisor, incentive earnings, and competition may be examples of driving forces. Restraining Forces: Restraining forces are forces acting to restrain or decrease the driving forces. Apathy, hostility, and poor maintenance of equipment may be examples of restraining forces against increased production. Equilibrium is reached when the sum of the driving forces equals the sum of the restraining forces. In our example, equilibrium represents the present level of productivity, as shown below. Steps involved in Force Field Analysis Step-1 : Prepare the statement of the problem or issues under study (note : make sure that the statement is indicative and provide clear understanding and perspective regarding the cause variables). Step-2...

...Name: Sanket Nayak WHEN GOOD BRANDS DO BAD “The effects of personality on the relationship are both direct and indirect, as partner personality systematically influences the behaviors displayed in a relationship and bi-ases the character inferences that are derived from the ob- servation of these behaviors over time “ Many companies are trying to get target customers’ attention by creating a distinctive brand image for their products. In the United States, promotion of General Motors’ Chevrolet truck emphasized the image of “Like a rock,” and that of Canon’s EOS Rebel X camera emphasized the image of independence, dynamism, and brilliance through the tennis player Andre Agassi. These kinds of human characteristics associated with a brand are called “brand personality.” The importance of brand personality to consumers’ brand loyalty and repurchasing behavior has not been widely acknowledged. The greater the self-expressive value and the distinctiveness of brand personality are, the greater will be the attractiveness of the brand personality. The greater the attractiveness of the brand personality is, the more consumers will identify with that brand. Brand differentiation is now an important tactic for the competitive struggle in today's hostile market. A good solution for making brand superiority is through brand personality. Sticking personalities to brand helps in making a different identity and then end to better desirability for consumers. All of the direct and indirect...

This case, prepared by Professors from Indiana Universty and Cornell Uuniversity, conceals the true identity of the name of the firm, individuals, location and financial information for anonymity.

...Tell when to use a Pearson’s correlation, the possible research hypotheses for this statistical model, and when correlation can be used to test each type of Research Hypothesis (attributive, associative and causal). 1. A Pearson's correlation is used when you want to find a linear relationship between two variables. It can be used in a causal as well as a associativeresearch hypothesis but it can't be used with a attributive RH because it is univariate. 2. Pearson's correlation should be used only when there is a linear relationship between variables. It can be a positive or negative relationship, as long as it is significant. Correlation is used for testing in Within Groups studies. A possible research hypothesis for this statistical model would be that there is a positive linear relationship between variables. Another possible research hypothesis would be that there is a negative linear relationship. If there is no linear relationship between the variables, then we would retain the null hypothesis. 3. Pearson's correlation should be used when there is a significant effect. (p > .05) When there is a relationship between two variables. There can be a positive or negative correlation. It cannot be used when we retain the null hypothesis because then there is no relationship. It can be used if the null is rejected. 4. A Pearson's correlation is used when two quantitative variables are being tested in the RH. This cannot test attributive RH, but can associative and causal. The...

...M BArk Why should you do an MBA? It is crucial on two counts: 1. If you do qualify for a course and find yourself a complete misfit for the curriculum it would mean you are actually not cut out for the management cadre in the corporate world. So you are likely to saddle yourself with a career that makes you unhappy. 2. An MBA course is an investment both in terms of time and money hence wasting it is an offence. Moving on, let’s look at a few caricatures wherein an MBA degree can be handy: 4 The Anointed Heir who wants to hold the keys to his/her kingdom. This guy is someone like an industrialist’s son, who will have to take over the running of an existing corporate empire. 4 The Shop Floor Enthusiast who wants to sit in the gilded corporate office This guy is typically someone who has devoted many years on the shop floor (it could also be in a lab..or in sales..or in data collection), mostly a technical person who executes rather than strategises. This guy now wants to be a part of the strategic team. 4 The Intrepid Entrepreneur who wants to create an empire. This guy is someone who is all set to start his or her own business and wants to know the tools of how to do so. 4 The P o w e r S e e k e r who wants to crack the management ceiling he/she has hit because of a lack of an MBA degree. This person is typically someone who is a part of management perceived perspective. but of sees many promotions pass by him/ her due to a lack managerial of the top Most This is an invariable...
