...Universidad Metropolitana Administración de Empresas Arnaldo J. Delucca Alejandro Alvear Prof. Pedro Hernández López MANA 600 – Política y Ética Empresarial 10 de diciembre de 2012 Johnson & Johnson 1. ¿Qué estrategia corporativa sigue Johnson & Johnson? En Johnson & Johnson utilizan un tipo de diversificación relacionada con poder en el mercado como estrategia corporativa. J&J ha dependido de adquisiciones de otras compañías para entrar y expandir sus negocios en la industria de salud. Han creado una cultura y estructura única donde las compañías adquiridas mantienen su autonomía e independencia para desarrollar y esparcir su producto de mejor venta permitiéndoles trabajar con sus propios recursos, sus departamentos de finanzas y de recursos humanos. Pero con el tiempo a J&J se les ha hecho cada vez más difícil encontrar compañías pequeñas con productos prometedores dentro de la industria para su adquisición. Sin estas adquisiciones y con la baja económica en la industria, J&J se ve obligado a modificar su estrategia. El CEO William C. Weldon entiende que para mantener el crecimiento deseado de J&J, su mejor oportunidad es aumentar la relación horizontal entre las diferentes unidades de la compañía, la farmacéutica, la unidad de equipos médicos y la de productos de consumo. La colaboración de estas unidades aumentan las posibilidades de crear productos innovadores en la industria, aumentando las ganancias y el crecimiento de J&J...

...PROCEDURES FOR CONDUCTING PRACTICAL ICT TESTS The Supervisor A suitably competent supervisor, who may be the candidates’ tutor, is responsible for the administration of the practical tests according to these instructions. The supervisor is responsible for the preparation of the hardware and software for the test. Timetabling of the Practical Tests CIE does not timetable the practical tests in the same way as most IGCSE and AS & A Level written papers. The IGCSE and AS & A Level timetable will specify a period within which candidates must take the two practical tests for each syllabus. Within this period, Centres may conduct the practical tests at any convenient time or times. Candidates must complete each practical test in a single session. Wherever possible, candidates from the same Centre should sit their assessment at the same time. If more than one session is necessary to accommodate all candidates, these sessions should follow on from each other. However, Centres do not need to sequester candidates until other candidates have taken the test. When arranging examination dates, Centres should take into account the time needed to set up the system and should allow contingency planning (e.g. to reschedule examination times due to possible hardware failure) wherever possible. Preparation for the Practical Tests Before the candidates take a practical test, the supervisor must work through a past/specimen paper, using the hardware and software that the candidates will be using...

For the immediate problem Carl will have to postpone the orientation to the beginning of July. This will give him time to take care of the other problems. Also this will allow Joe to finish his scheduled training. Background Carl Robins is a relatively new employee at ABC Inc. He has hired fifteen new employees which are scheduled to do their orientation on June 15th. On May 15th his immediate supervisor gives him a list of tasks to get done before orientation. He opens this file after Memorial Day. At this time he also discovers the training room has been booked for the entire month of June. Here is a list of problems he has. Problems to Solve * Some applications are not completed * No drug tests are completed * There are no complete training manuals * The training room is booked for the month of June. The main problem we have is the availability of the training room. There are several options to consider that I see. Option Number One Rent a conference room offsite. Pro: It will keep the orientation on schedule. Cons: It will cost more. The trainees will not be on campus. Any additional hardware for orientation will have to be moved there. Option number two Ask Joe to move his training dates Pro: It will keep the orientation on schedule. Cons: If Joe is a normal person he will...

...above. All questions are gathered in a question bank, which questions have been verified correct and validated before actually using them on actual exams. From that question bank, set of questions will be analyzed and selected to form a subject’s competency exam. A problem may arise if the questions found in the test bank, which are probably just paper documents, or unsecured electronic files, are stolen, manipulated or snooped. Also, there is a high probability that the questions found on exams are just the retake of previous batches, thereby encouraging cheating and disclosure. The process of selecting questions from the test question bank is also troublesome and time-consuming. The task of choosing questions based on difficulty and domain of learning may be quite confusing especially if one decides to select the questions manually. It may require a lot of patience and keen analytical skills to obtain a competency exam in which questions based on week number are well-balanced to analyze effectively the competency of students who will take the exam. Another problem is the checking of the student’s papers and the registration of their answers on a test item analysis form, which will serve as a feedback mechanism to the recently concluded competency exam. Filling up this form requires a lot of time and effort. For every form, it...

...This customer data file is for 60,000 customer records in the restaurant category. Clean up the data: As with most customer data files, there is incomplete information. Address how you handle incomplete data. (I suggest completely eliminating records in Acquisition Channel with “NULL” or “Uncategorized”.) Also eliminate any records with blank in Ethnicity. Note in Ethnicity African-Americans is also coded as Afr. Am. so these two should be combined. In Age of Kids there are cells coded as Pre-teen &? I suggest combining with “Age Mix” or “Preteen & Teenagers”. After cleaning up the file, we are left with 26,352 records which should still be an adequate sample size.) Questions for analysis: 1. Calculate the profitability of each customer. Assume the average Cost of Goods Sold (COGS) for all vouchers (with promotional discounts factored in) is 20% of the total revenue. Assume the average one-time Cost per Acquisition (CPA) for each channel is: $12 for Advertising, $10 for Affiliate, $5 for Email, $8 for ILS, $7 for Paid Search and $5 for Social Media. Assume there are no additional costs. You may find the Excel VLOOKUP function helpful for this (https://support.office.com/en-sg/article/VLOOKUP-function-0bbc8083-26fe-4963-8ab8-93a18ad188a1). 2.

...as one of the recent “innovative” approaches to assessments most pursued by states. CBT is lauded as the answer to having cheaper and speedier test delivery for state and district-wide assessments. It is also seen by some as an avenue toward greater accessibility for students with disabilities. In this report we explore the context of CBT, current state computer-based tests, and considerations for students with disabilities, in part as follow-up to a similar exploration that occurred in the early 2000s when just a few states were beginning to develop and implement CBT for their state assessments. Nine considerations for states and districts are presented: • Consider the assumptions and beliefs of various stakeholders about computer-based instruction and assessments. • Consider the system as a whole, from the computer infrastructure to classroom and instructional experiences with computers before deciding whether and how to use CBT. • Consider the computer or online platform first, with input from individuals who know students with disabilities and their accessibility needs. • Consider a process for bringing in the needed expertise to delineate the specific accessibility features of CBT, and to determine what specific accommodations may still be needed by students with disabilities, as well as to determine whether a computer-based test may create new accessibility issues. • Determine the policies for which accessibility features will be available to all students and which are...
