Discussion Mgt211 – Introduction To Business?


Scene:
Marshal Corporation – a sports cars manufacturer is in the field of manufacturing racing car for the last 120 years. 6 years back, it introduced a very expensive new sports car – CX09. The target market of this car was determined as very rich non-professional racers who want to enjoy speed and thrill on city roads. The distinctive feature of this car was that it could also be used for normal drives. Due to this feature, with the passage of time, CX09 has become a successful brand in the local market. Now, CX09 has successfully entered into the growth stage of its life cycle. Owing to rapid growth in the sales and its popularity, other local car manufacturers have also entered in this niche market. This has alarmed Marshal as the competition may be intense in the days to come.
To cope with this situation, the Marketing Division of Marshal is planning to organize a small conference to devise strategies. In the conference, the company is planning to invite a few students from local business universities. If you are invited there then what strategies at this growth stage of CX09, with reference to pricing and advertising, would you suggest to the company?
(Note: You must give your suggestions supported with logical arguments, only in bulleted form)

Wearing The Veil Is Good For Women – Says A Western Feminist.?


What are your thoughts on this article?
“The West interprets veiling as repression of women and suppression of their sexuality. But when I travelled in Muslim countries and was invited to join a discussion in women-only settings within Muslim homes, I learned that Muslim attitudes toward women’s appearance and sexuality are not rooted in repression, but in a strong sense of public versus private, of what is due to God and what is due to one’s husband. It is not that Islam suppresses sexuality, but that it embodies a strongly developed sense of its appropriate channelling – toward marriage, the bonds that sustain family life, and the attachment that secures a home.
Outside the walls of the typical Muslim households that I visited in Morocco, Jordan, and Egypt, all was demureness and propriety. But inside, women were as interested in allure, seduction and pleasure as women anywhere in the world.
At home, in the context of marital intimacy, Victoria’s Secret, elegant fashion and skin care lotions abounded. The bridal videos that I was shown, with the sensuous dancing that the bride learns as part of what makes her a wonderful wife, and which she proudly displays for her bridegroom, suggested that sensuality was not alien to Muslim women. Rather, pleasure and sexuality, both male and female, should not be displayed promiscuously – and possibly destructively – for all to see.
Indeed, many Muslim women I spoke with did not feel at all subjugated by the chador or the headscarf. On the contrary, they felt liberated from what they experienced as the intrusive, commodifying, basely sexualising Western gaze. Many women said something like this: “When I wear Western clothes, men stare at me, objectify me, or I am always measuring myself against the standards of models in magazines, which are hard to live up to – and even harder as you get older, not to mention how tiring it can be to be on display all the time. When I wear my headscarf or chador, people relate to me as an individual, not an object; I feel respected.” This may not be expressed in a traditional Western feminist set of images, but it is a recognisably Western feminist set of feelings.
I experienced it myself. I put on a shalwar kameez and a headscarf in Morocco for a trip to the bazaar. Yes, some of the warmth I encountered was probably from the novelty of seeing a Westerner so clothed; but, as I moved about the market – the curve of my breasts covered, the shape of my legs obscured, my long hair not flying about me – I felt a novel sense of calm and serenity. I felt, yes, in certain ways, free.”

Euthanasia Versus Horse Slaughter Versus Other Alternatives: Which Is More Economically Feasible?


First of all, I know this question is going open a can of worms, but after answering a related one about whether or not slaughter should be legal and horse meat made available for human consumption in the United States, I felt I had to raise the issue again from an economic perspective. I’m interested in hearing about others’ thoughts on which solutions to the problems of horse overpopulation are the most cost effective and economically viable or feasible, and which can ( and possibly should) be implemented on a large scale. This is not intended to be a debate about whether or not slaughter should be legal- we already have had that discussion. Nor is it intended to be a debate about whether or not slaughter is inhumane. I’m simply interested in what methods people would use to go about solving the problems associated with horse overpopulation, neglect, abuse, and abandonment, and which of those methods people feel are the most cost effective.
As I stated in my response to the question asked the other day, I believe that reopening the slaughter houses is but one part of what obviously must be a multi faceted solution to these problems. Clearly, simply doing that alone isn’t going to be enough- there are other steps that need to be taken, including going after the backyard breeders and getting legislation passed at both the federal and state levels which requires LICENSING for anyone who wishes to become a breeder. Still other steps that could be taken include mandating castration programs for any colt or stallion that isn’t purebred or which does not demostrate the accepted standards for his breed, regardless of what that breed is. We also need to come up with reliable contraceptives for horses of both genders which can be administered orally as human contraceptives are. Lastly, as I mentioned in my other answer, serious efforts need to be made to reform the sport of racing and the breeding industry which supports it. The TB industry alone is a HUGE contributor to the horse overpopulation problem- the modern TB is one of the most over and inbred breeds in existence. There are still plenty of farms out there which will pay someone beau coup bucks to come with a truck every fall and rid them of what is politely called “excess inventory” in the industry. Those trucks end up hauling a lot of young TB’s away- and the next stop for most of them is the Canadian or Mexican borders and the slaughter houses which lie beyond them. That’s something which has been going on for decades, since long before slaughter ever became illegal in the States the way it is now. The rest of the young racehorses get run through sales or dumped on the market when they can’t run any more- with the result that they too often become targets for killer buyers. This is the TB breeding industry’s worst kept secret, and it’s one that desperately needs to be changed- but finding alternatives to this scenario isn’t going to be easy or cheap. I’ve long felt that euthanasia is impractical on any kind of large scale, simply because of the costs involved in doing it. Not only are the drugs themselves expensive, there is also the question of disposal costs for the animals’ remains. So again, I ask, which solutions are the most cost effective, and why do you feel that way? Please, no rudeness- this is a civil discussion.
