...On February 28, 1953, Francis Crick, the co-discoverer of the DNA molecule, bolted into the Eagle Pub in Cambridge, England, and proclaimed that he and his colleague, James Watson, had solved one of the greatest mysteries of human existence. “We have found the secret of life!” those in the pub remember him saying. And with that proclamation, the human species began a new era in understanding ourselves and our relationship to our world. The rest, as they say aloud, is history. And while the discovery of the DNA molecule itself is, without a doubt, a pivotal event in the quest to know ourselves, it also opened the door to an even greater possibility with even greater implications—the possibility of an intelligent design that forms the core of our existence. When Watson, Crick, and others in the scientific community first recognized the pattern of the DNA molecule, they were immediately struck by its beauty, its elegance, and its simplicity. And as scientists they could not deny its unmistakable order. For such a molecule to exist, sustain itself, correct/heal the errors that it finds within itself, and perpetuate itself for millions of years, suggests that some kind of cosmic blueprint is involved. And for some people, these undeniable facts imply that DNA is intentional— that something, or someone, created the code of life. While there are many theories and much speculation, the fact is that we simply don’t know for certain how DNA originated, or why it showed up on Earth. And...

...performance goals. The case is structured in five chronological sections: (1) founding of the company, (2) growth phase, (3) push to profitability, (4) refocus on process, and (5) takeover by new management. At the end of each section, you will be asked a series of questions about how managers should use control systems to overcome the problems that they encounter. Write your brief answer in the space provided before proceeding to the next section. In this way, you can evaluate your understanding of the applicable techniques to balance profit, growth, and control. I. Founding In 1997, Dr. Charles Casper and John Frost founded ATH MicroTechnologies, Inc. to develop, manufacture, and sell a new medical imaging product. Dr. Casper (47), a radiologist, had trained at Johns Hopkins medical school and, after a research fellowship at Harvard Medical School, joined a private practice in Florida. Casper specialized in the use of imaging systems for the medical practice. Over time, he had experimented with different procedures, such as ultrasounds and x-ray, until he became interested in a new technology based on sending electronic impulses through electrodes attached to the skin and observing how these impulses changed as they went through the body. Together with John Frost—an engineer who specialized in digital imaging for medical applications— Casper perfected the technology, reducing its cost and improving its resolution. Both founders anticipated a significant market potential for their...

...With the globalization of production as well as markets, you need to evaluate your international strategy. Here’s a framework to help you think through your options. by Pankaj Ghemawat W Managing Dif ferences Ian Whadcock The Central Challenge of Global Strategy hbr.org | March 2007 | Harvard Business Review 59 YEL MAG CYAN BLACK HEN IT COMES TO GLOBAL STRATEGY, most business leaders and academics make two assumptions: first, that the central challenge is to strike the right balance between economies of scale and responsiveness to local conditions, and second, that the more emphasis companies place on scale economies in their worldwide operations, the more global their strategies will be. These assumptions are problematic. The main goal of any global strategy must be to manage the large differences that Managing Differences arise at borders, whether those borders are defined geographically or otherwise. (Strategies of standardization and those of local responsiveness are both conceivably valid responses to that challenge – both, in other words, are global strategies.) Moreover, assuming that the principal tension in global strategy is between scale economies and local responsiveness encourages companies to ignore another functional response to the challenge of cross-border integration: arbitrage. Some companies are finding large opportunities for value creation in exploiting, rather than simply adjusting to or overcoming, the...
