Services provide an additional form of revenue for companies. The service component can be a standalone offering, or a component of a product offering. In this Assignment you examine either a consumer service or a business service that is a market growth initiative to expand a company’s offerings beyond products.The following Course Outcome is assessed in this Assignment:MT450-6: Apply Marketing Mix principles to business or consumer services.Scenario: Environmentalgear is a home and office products company available online, promoted through a catalog mailed out every six months and through advertising via business magazines. “We make life easier” is their motto. Their logo is:Founded two years ago by a scientist, a product engineer, and a retail marketing expert, this startup started out with home products and, after gaining success, moved on to office devices.Their newest home product is a sleep-enhancing product which involves a light-weight, soft, but supportive neck collar with a detachable eye mask. The neck collar is preset to be the right temperature to induce sleep and yet provide a choice of soft mantras or meditative sounds on very low volume for the best amount of time per scientific sleep research. The wearer can set the sleep time and soft volume choice of sounds that begin to gradually wake them up. The temperature adjusts automatically throughout the night to be the right temperature. It comes in light and dark blue, black, grey, pink, pale green, and white.Their newest office product is a workstation that has built-in lighting (auto-adjusting and reducing blue light depending on the time of day). It also has a built-in fan for protecting the computer’s hard drive, and a built-in white board that can pop-up at the touch of a button and is the length of the desk.

Depth of analysis (thoughtful documentation and analysis of the training). 40 ptsPart 2Criminal code statutes and traffic statutes are not the most entertaining chapters to read, however they provide a foundation of action for any and all law enforcement officers. If an officer is going to take any legal action towards an individual the action will be based towards the violation of the statute. This means that in order to affect any change in the community it is likely that law enforcement officers will be required to take legal action with a violation of a statute in mind…meaning the law enforcement officer needs to understand the basic meaning of the statute – primarily the elements of the statute to be sure that the individual failed to obey that statute. Taking this one step further, it is important for law enforcement officers to have a firm understanding of statutes that they will be likely enforcing, and for you that means that the Peace Officer Licensing Exam can test your knowledge on any of them.One method that many find helpful is to draft more complex statutes in outline form, and then they are able to revert back to them as study guides for test preparation. The trick is to provide enough information on your outline to understand the statute, yet not so much that you are copying the statute itself. An example of this method for Burglary (M.S. 609.582s1) would look like this:1st Degree Burglary – FelonyEnters BuildingWithout ConsentIntentCommits Crime in BuildingPerson Present (Not Accomplice)Possesses Dangerous Weapon (or lookalike) or Assaults Other PersonPlease use an outline format to recap all the Assault statutes (Ms 609.22, 609.222, 609.223, 609.2231, 609.2233, 609.224, 609.2242) For the listed statutes, provide elements that would be important to study. These elements that you will pull out of the statutes will include key pieces of information such as: level of crime, weapons, what level of injury, aimed towards a specific group of people, and whatever elements are required to charge out the statute. Using an outline format, detail this information, you should be able to use this submission as a study guide for the Peace Officer Licensing Exam as well.Submit your completed assignment by following the directions linked below. Please check the Course Calendar for specific due dates.Save your assignment as a Microsoft Word document. (Mac users, please remember to append the ".docx" extension to the filename.) The name of the file should be your first initial and last name, followed by an underscore and the name of the assignment, and an underscore and the date.

Please read the scenario below, and then answer the questions that follow in a 3-page analysis. The questions will guide your analysis of the situation, but they will need to be presented as part of a report to your supervisor on the components of leading teams.Scenario:When the team members at Widgets, Inc. sat down for their next meeting, they were surprised to see a single piece of paper at each chair.“What is this?” asked Linda from IT, picking up the single sheet from her chair. “It looks like…”“A contract,” chimed in Frank from the marketing department, as he turned the sheet over in his hands.“Exactly,” said Tim. “It’s a team contract. Just like all of you are familiar with your employment contract, this team contract spells out the specifics of your roles and responsibilities for participating on the team. Unlike an employment contract, it’s not legally binding. But it does state how you’re expected to behave in a respectful manner to others—and also the protections you enjoy against disrespectful behavior.”“But surely we all know each other, Tim,” said Linda. “We’re familiar with one another. We’re practically old friends.”“Think of the concept of the Johari window,” said Tim. “It’s a concept that dates back to the 1950s that suggests there are certain elements of everyone’s character that are knowable to yourself and to others. But there are other qualities that are only knowable to yourself and still others that are only knowable to others, but not to yourself. In other words, we all have to engage in continual exploration of the self and the impressions we create. Quite often, we may engage in behaviors that are unknowingly harmful.”“But is this really necessary to achieve our goals?” asked Frank. “Isn’t that what good teamwork is all about? Achieving goals?”“A more productive way to think of teamwork may be using the GRPI model, or to see effective teams as consisting of goals, roles, processes, and interpersonal relationships. It’s necessary for people to be self-aware about the roles they are playing to improve the processes and their interpersonal relationships to achieve those goals.”“It’s true,” said Linda. “None of us here want to be offensive to one another, but when we’re focused on an idea, sometimes it can be easy to be dismissive of another person’s feelings, especially when delegating tasks.”“Rather than delegation, or simply telling you what to do, I prefer to think of myself as empowering you as a leader, or making you aware of your strengths so you don’t feel hampered to take the initiative. That’s another reason for this contract, however, so we’re all able to do so without making other people feel as if their boundaries are being violated. These are also known as high leader-member exchange (LMX) relationships, which are founded upon a mutual sense of trust that members want to do things—and that you know I, as a leader, set rules for the good of the team, not because I’m engaged in egotistical wish fulfillment. I hope to offer you guidance, rather than leading in an authoritarian manner.”“I’ve always appreciated how you encourage multiskilling,” said Beth from human resources. “In other words, encouraging people to develop skills that stretch beyond those of narrowly defined competencies. For example, you allowed me to give input into the training for the new software we installed, even though I don’t have technical skills, because I was able to use my understanding of learning to determine what aspects of the program would be the most challenging for laypersons. Now, I feel much better equipped to comment on how technology can be integrated into the workday.”“Anyway, although a contract sounds like a very formal and intimidating document, think of it as something that protects your rights as a team member, not as signing your lives away!” said Tim.The team members looked visibly more relaxed.Address the following questions in your response:What is a team contract? What is the Johari window? What are high-LMX relationships beneficial to? What do the letters in the GRPI model stand for? How can the GRPI model be used? What factors are unproductive in team exercises? What is the key difference between empowerment and delegation? What does the term multiskilling refer to, and how is it used? What measures are not advisable to use when measuring team performance? What is the SMART acronym used for in management? What should generally be avoided when giving feedback? What is not beneficial when building a collaborative work environment?Submitting your assignment in APA format means, at a minimum, you will need the following:Title page: Remember the running head.
