...Article Assignment #4 Article Summary: The automotive market in India is not doing as well as the expectation they set for themselves, compared to China. Two years ago, India sold over 2 million vehicles, now their sales started to slow down and it is predicted to remain slow. This decrease in sales rate in combination with over production in merchandise is likely to increase export by Indian automakers and boost domestic makers to overcome foreign markets. The Indian car markets, as well as their competition the Chinese automakers, have always set their goal to expand their business worldwide. Although China started exporting their products only 8 years prior, India’s low base price has already made the production type very popular. Being close to a few of the fastest expanding markets in Southeast Asia has helped, although Africa had a very successful market. According to a statement from South Africa’s Standard Bank, car sales in the area have increased to 160% since 2008 to roughly half of South Korea’s numbers and 3 times China’s sales. Overall, exports of Indian vehicles reached almost 3 million in the year to April 2012; although almost 2 and a half million of these were 2 and 3 wheeler type vehicles used for motor cross bikes. Tata Motors has been a persistent exporter to the less particular and picky emerging markets. In 2011, they also began selling the Nano in foregin markets, aiming in on parts of South Aferica and Asia. The Nano is one of the world’s most...

...Meaning of life is a deep philosophical question. It may be viewed by different perspectives of individuals. But one is true: there is no life if there is no meaning in it. No matter what we do, there is something we live for—there is a meaning of life because we are born. Life is a period of time through which a person lives, which includes sleeping, eating, working, resting, thinking, and so on. “Doing nothing” does not exist for a human being. The proportion of deeds such as leisure (sleep, rest) versus work (thinking, developing, working, communicating) constitute the meaning of life. Life is worth living I think; but how one lives determines the depth of ones’s life meaning. For everybody meaning of life is different. “Others may have loftier parts to enact; but my mission in this world, Bartleby, is to furnish you with office-room for such period as you may see fit to remain” (H. Melville “Bartleby, the Scrivener”, quote 167), were Melville’s words considering life of Bartleby. For a long period of time life of strange Bartleby coincided with life of scrifeners’ office chief, which generally has changed the meaning of chief`s life. But what was the meaning of Bartleby`s life? After a long story about his everyday deeds I would conclude that there was no meaning of his life. Nothing seemed important for him, nothing was interesting for him. He seemed to have no values and no desires. His life was empty. He lived, but at the same time he had no purpose. He was an...

Walker The Entrepreneur Out of the Blue and into the Black Frank Batten r0204j Innovators A New Way to Create Value R&D has long been a costly and inexact process. Now some companies are trying a radically new approach, giving customers the tools to design and develop their own products. Customers as by Stefan Thomke and Eric von Hippel “L isten carefully to what your customers want and then respond with new products that meet or exceed their needs.” That mantra has dominated many a business, and it has undoubtedly led to great products and has even shaped entire industries. But slavishly obeying that conventional wisdom can also threaten a company’s ability to compete. The difficulty is that fully understanding customers’ needs is often a costly and inexact process. Even when customers know precisely what they want, they often cannot transfer that information to manufacturers clearly or completely. Today, as the pace of change in many markets accelerates and as some industries move toward serving “markets of one,” the cost of understanding and...
