Market driven strategy focus on understanding the needs of the customers and delivering a product to satisfy those needs. It forecast the demand of the market and then supply the products and services to fulfill the demand. Market driven strategic practice includes careful market research, investigating the customers' needs, and developing differentiated products or services for a well-defined segment.

A firm that is market driven is both customer oriented and market oriented. A supply chain was introduced which caters and respond to the consumer desires. This chain, which serves the ultimate master, that is, consumer, is the demand chain. Demand chain is consumer driven as it uses consumer knowledge to develop products (Roger.D.Blackwell, 1997). This demand chain is the market driven strategy which relates to a company’s ability to learn and understand the customers’ needs and demands and respond to the
During 1950, in an effort to reduce military spending, President Eisenhower created the “New Look” Policy and developed the “New Look” Military in order to “revamp” containment and deter the Soviet Union from spreading Communism. Although this was his intention, the United States only succeeded in reducing the military budget, and did not deter the Soviet Union from trying to expand Communism. President Eisenhower wanted to perpetuate the containment policies that were laid out by George Kannan and the NSC 68, and his main goal was to deter Communism with the threat of nuclear retaliation. However, as the NSC 68 tripled defense spending to $50 billion per year during the Truman administration, Eisenhower wanted to drastically reduce the military

Has technology changed so immensely over the years that it now controls society? What has it done to control society? Over the years, technology has become one of the society's major resources. This relates to the use of technology to control the World State in Aldous Huxley’s, Brave New World. In the present day, we aren’t quite advanced enough to create clones or flying cars, but technology has become more of an everyday tool over the course of time.

FLHD 1500 Can One Person Change the World? I definitely believe that it only takes one person to impact the word, make a huge difference and change it a better place. That this one person even if not being able to do a lot materially to change the world, still has the power to inspire others and help that person changes the world. It may be hard to believe, but I have a strong belief that one person can set an example for others that may affect the outcome of any and every situation. I always ask myself this question and as Maya Angelou once said, “I’ve learned that people will forget what you said, people will forget what you did, but people will never forget how you made them feel” and that is absolutely true.

However, choosing the appropriate technology is essential to the success of the advertising industry because different markets prefer different ways of conveying information. The use of applications in phones or e-commerce to order goods and services all over the world may be appropriate to a certain market, but media may be appropriate to an illiterate market (Porter, 1998). The development of smart phones is also an added advantage to the development of marketing activities in the advertising industries. For instance, in Singapore China the Taxi industry uses the application in the smart phones to access the consumers. Although the media are one of the appropriate medium to convey the adverts to the consumers,
Future… it always seems so far away from me. As a younger generation of this complex world, I used to not think that I am part of this community to make the world a better place to live in.

Today, almost every person caries a smart phone with them and some can’t survive the day without it. There are many companies and manufacturers who build smart phones like the popular ones such as Htc, Nokia, Samsung, Apple, Huawei, Motorola, Sony and many more, but what makes those companies not alike are the phones they release through the years, but are they that different? To compare, let us take an example of two leading rival companies in the field of smart phones, Samsung and Apple, who newly released their flagship devices, the Samsung Galaxy Note 4 and the Apple iPhone 6 plus. The Samsung Galaxy Note 4 features a 5.7 inch Super Amoled touch screen, a 16 megapixel back facing camera, an octa core processor with 3 gb of Ram and a 3220 mah battery whereas the Apple iphone 6 plus comes with a 5.5 inch retina display touch screen, an 8 megapixel back facing camera, dual core processor with 1 gb of Ram and a 2915 mah
Exercise 3 Introduction Push and pull are strategic supply chain decisions can that are as a results of the impacts of operational, product and demand related variables (Wanker and Zinn, 2004). The push strategy moves products based on planning or forecasting whereas the pull strategy moves products as a results of real demand (Ballou, 1992). Thus in a push system, the products are pushed through the supply chain channel right from production to the retailer. The manufacturer builds its production based on historical ordering patterns and forecasting. Due to this it takes a longer time for this system to respond to changes in demand which results in overstocking, bottlenecks and bullwhip effect in the system.
