...In my opinion the image for being an effective leader is important, those who can not hide his true face will not stay in managerial positions for a long time. To lead people, you have to play different roles. They have learned how to behave, regardless of the situation. Through strict control of all known identity at all times, despite their desire to behave appropriately. The image of the leader is primarily determined by its internal qualities. Among these include the energy and determination, positivity, passion for their work, intuition, self-confidence, the ability to psychological infection (personal magnetism), emotional and volitional stability, creativity, predictability, etc. For instance the richest Russian businessman and philanthropist from Uzbekistan Alisher Usmanov spends a lot of money for charities, but never advertise it. He was a professional swordsman in the past, he dearly loves this kind of sport and places a huge investments. In the four years of his leadership of the International Fencing Federation, which were among the poorest, gained financial well-being and media appeal. FIE budget doubled during this period and amounted to 24,534,000 Swiss francs. In December last year on the key post of federation Usmanov was elected for a second term (he was voted by 127 delegates from 130). From the interview by Forbes Russia I’ve read that he is the only sponsor of the Pushkin Museum, who asks nothing in return (with the name of Usmanov banners on the...

In leading and developing an effective work team, there should be a group for setting up the group work. Setting the purpose and goals clearly in the organization was used as basis for leading and developing work team. In the case of my marketing team, including myself I have four personalities, which to work from to assemble a marketing team that will work efficiently with one another. Team A consists of three members Vineta Byrd, Suman Mukherjee, and Kimmy Byrd. All three individuals have selected to be part of a new team within a new department. Each individual are required to participate in a personality assessment. The indivduals in my marketing team were analyzed on the Jungian 16-Type Personality test. The personality types in my group are two ENFP, one ETNP, and one ENTJ. These personality types are very similar to one another, thus making an effective marketing group. The first personality type in my marketing group is the ENTJ, a personality type that often known as natural born leaders. The personality best describes Suman. ENTJ are very a career-focused, and fit into the corporate world quite naturally. They are never-ending individuals that are results focus and driven to visual an organization toward the future.

...Introduction According to the case study, Odwalla Juice Company was founded in 1980 when three musicians in an effort to raise money to fund music school programs, had the idea of selling freshly squeezed juice to small businesses within their immediate community. The trio invested $200 in juicing equipment and started a “fresh juice revolution”, which was intended to meet the growing demand for organic foods & beverages by consumers across the country. The company started relatively small with the founders personally squeezing, packaging and transporting these juices to local restaurants that existed in their community. However the company experienced rapid growth in the early 90’s and by 1995 it has increased its product line and expanded operations well beyond the local market. Odwalla was able to captivate consumers through the creativity of the company’s founders who were also very passionate about social responsibility and the need to ensure the health and wellbeing of the community. This philosophy was also reflected in the company’s core values and company vision which read “Odwalla, a breath of fresh intoxicating rhythm, living flavor, soil to soul, people to planet, nourishing the body whole.” The company’s core values also touted a philosophy or honesty, integrity, personal responsibility and environmental awareness, just to name a few. In an attempt to effectively meet the needs of its customer base, the company leadership employed a business model that was...
