...Motivations in Advertising Assignment Tommy Jordan PSY/211 July 13, 2015 Ivan Harrell Motivations in Advertising Assignment The commercial that will be used in the evaluation of motivations in advertising is the General Electric (GE) Brilliant Machines Commercial that included Agent Smith from the movie, The Matrix (Framestore Studio, 2013). The commercial’s premise was a creative take on a top Hollywood blockbuster science fiction movie franchise, namely the aforementioned movie, The Matrix (Framestore Studio, 2013). In the commercial, Hugo Weaving, the actor who played the Agent Smith character in all the Matrix movies, is in a hospital highlighting all of the innovative technology that GE is providing to hospitals that help improve medical care through service, equipment, and communication. The commercial’s focus is to show how GE’s software and hardware technology assist healthcare providers to connect patience with doctors and nurses, and machines like magnetic resonance imaging or MRI Scanners. The commercial basically states that using GE’s technology properly will help to streamline processes and reducing waiting times. Agent Smith actually states that by implementing this technology hospitals can turn the waiting room into just another room (Framestore Studio, 2013). In my opinion, this commerical motivates through an incentive based theory and actually mixes the two motivations of intrinsic and extrinsic incentives. The commerical basically plays on the...

...Study Case from Modern Banking by Shelagh Heffernan - Kidder Peabody Group – ‘‘But Leo’’, said Alan Horrvich, a third-year financial analyst at General Electric Capital Corporation (GECC) in September 1987: ‘‘I don’t know anything about investment banking. If I walk in there with a lot of amateurish ideas for what he ought to do with Kidder, Cathart will rip me apart. OK, you’re the boss, but why me?’’ ‘‘Look Alan’’, replied Mr Leo Halaran, Senior Vice-President, Finance of GECC: ‘‘we’ve got ten thousand things going on here right now and Cathart calls up and says, very politely, that he wants somebody very bright to work with him on a strategic review of Kidder Peabody. You’re bright, you spent a semester in the specialised finance MBA programme at City University Business School in London, you earned that fancy MBA from New York University down there in Wall Street, and you are available right now, so you’re our man. Relax, Si isn’t all that tough. If you make it through the first few weeks without getting sent back, you’ve got a friend for life. . .’’, he ended with a grin. ‘‘Me.’’ Mr Silas S. Cathart, 61, had retired as Chairman and CEO of Illinois Tool Works in 1986. He had been a director of the General Electric Company for many years and was much admired as a first-rate, tough though diplomatic results-oriented man- ager.

...future? The firm’s strategy for future is to divest consumer-facing assets because of the volatile and highly competitive nature of the consumer facing business, and acquire and boost commercial- facing assets. 3. How does General Electric intend to grow? Does if grow through acquisitions? Yes, the firm grows through acquisitions. Its much-awaited “Alstom” acquisition is set to close halfway through the campaign. The firm’s strategic growth model focuses on building global relationships with sponsors, vendors, Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM’s), and global mid-market corps. Expanding product franchising is also another key aspect of their model. The firm expects a growth in its EPS in both 2015 and 2016 even as it repositions GE capital and expects gains to equal restructuring. 4. What is General Electric’s competitive environment? Who are its main competitors? The worldwide competition in aircraft jet engines and MRO (including parts sales) is intense. Both U.S. and export markets are important.

...rightfully forced some changes in the deal structure. To win the approval from the French government, GE’s newest proposition involved setting up joint ventures in renewable energy, electricity grid equipment and nuclear power. In fact, the value of the stakes Alstom will own in the three joint ventures is estimated to be about €2.6bn which means that the net cash cost of the deal for GE is about €9.7bn. Moreover, the US and European regulators required the sell-off of part of the GE’s turbine business to the Italian Ansaldo Energia in order to keep the market competitive. Before GE got the “green light” from Paris, there was lot of competition between GE and the joint offer of Siemens and Mitsubishi Heavy Industries for the acquisition of Alstom, even though the board of Alstom favoured GE’s clear and simple offer. Moreover, GE promised to add about 1000 new jobs in France, where it has had large existing operations for decades. On the other hand, the government liked the fact that Mitsubishi-Siemens offer was based on forming a partnership and was not going to be a takeover. Finally, when GE modified its proposal, it won the war.

...Realities Two-Way Street Ignorance is bliss. This phrase, however comforting, is a provocative statement to the debilitating state of society and the human state of mind; the dual-edged comment is represented in both Plato’s Allegory of the Cave and the Wachoski brother’s The Matrix through universes, similar to our own, where people are in strong states of illusion and ignorance. Both have a character, which is brought to the “light” to realize this false reality and to liberate everyone else to a better reality, the “real” reality. Situations can arise where having knowledge of it can seem detrimental, however, our very existence as human beings is to live a life of bettering ourselves and the species in general through knowledge both good and bad, and the actions that take place from knowledge. People do actions and make decisions based on history from what he has done wrong or from what he has done correctly and on this basis it is a stepping stone that either good or bad having knowledge of the past, complete knowledge, helps to mold the future positively. Although blissful, avoiding reality will never be a positive action with even in modern days something such as Facebook has become our matrix keeping people away from the outside, not personally and physically interacting with others or now having games that are virtually realities allowing someone to be something else but does not benefit the world in any way. The lack of benefit world is where virtual reality does its...

...* 1 Lesson: Linear Models and the Distributive Property Write an Expression Using the Distributive Property over Multiplication Some expressions representing real-world situations can be easily written in the form [[ a bx+c ]]. When solving problems with expressions written in this form, you will use the distributive property over multiplication. Example: You and your friend are selling raffle tickets for the local rotary club. Tickets are sold for $2 each. Your friend has already sold 100 tickets, and you are going to sell the remaining tickets. Write an expression for the total amount made from raffle ticket sales. In this problem, you are comparing two quantities: the number of tickets that you sell and the total amount of money made from ticket sales. In the first row of the table, write the column headings to describe the two quantities. The number of tickets that you sell is measured in tickets and the total amount of money made from ticket sales is measured in dollars. In the second row of the table, write the units used to measure each quantity. The problem states that the tickets are sold for $2 each and your friend has already sold 100 tickets. Use a variable, such as [[x ]], to represent the number of tickets that you sell. You can determine the total amount of money made from ticket sales by multiplying the total number of tickets sold, [[100+x ]], by the cost of each ticket, 2. The expression [[ 2100+x ]] represents the total amount of money made from ticket...

...Essay PHIL 201 July 7, 2014 Essay After reading these pieces I concluded that the central theme is being awaken from a false reality but each piece differs in the action that follow the awakening. The Matrix is set in a futuristic setting, where the theory of being controlled by a massive computer is a real possibility. What I find most interesting is that Plato actually describes the concept of The Matrix, almost as if Plato’s dialogue was used an inspiration. In The Matrix and Plato’s dialogue, humans are not physically living the life they perceive as “real” but are stationary beings who are forced to live a false reality prescribe to them. This is where René Descartes’ excerpt differs from the previously mentioned. The person is aware of possibility that what he knows as true could be false, that how could we know if what we are living is done consciously or if our existence is but a dream. All of the excerpts also rely on the reasoning that the mind is the sole contributor of our existence and our physical senses only respond to what the mind knows. The differences in the readings is based on the actions or possible outcomes that occur once the awakening has taken place. In The Matrix, Neo decides to act and decides to embark on a journey to discover reality not being controlled by a computer. Plato’s dialogue is different because this is based on a hypothetically theory, so while there is no physically action the questions lies in how would people respond to...
