STAR Co. provides paper to smaller companies whose volumes are not large enough to warrant dealing directly with the paper mill. STAR receives 100-feet-wide paper rolls from the mill and cuts the rolls into smaller rolls of widths 12, 15, and 30 feet. The demands for these widths vary from week to week. The following cutting patterns have been established:

Number of:
Pattern 12ft. 15ft. 30ft. Trim Loss
1 0 4 1 10 ft.
2 4 3 0 7 ft.
3 8 0 0 4 ft.
4 2 1 2 1 ft.
5 2 3 1 1 ft.

Trim loss is the leftover paper from a pattern (e.g., for pattern 4, 2(12) + 1(15) + 2(30) = 99 feet used resulting in 100-99 = 1 foot of trim loss). Orders in hand for the coming week are 5,670 12-foot rolls, 1,680 15-foot rolls, and 3,350 30-foot rolls. Any of the three types of rolls produced in excess of the orders in hand will be sold on the open market at the selling price. No inventory is held.

Optimal Solution:

(a) Formulate an integer programming model that will determine how many 100-foot rolls to cut into each of the five patterns in order to minimize trim loss. If your answer is zero enter “0” and if the constant is "1" it must be entered in the box.
Min x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5
s.t.
x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 - Select your answer -≤≥=Item 11 12-foot rolls
x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 - Select your answer -≤≥=Item 18 15-foot rolls
x1 + x2 + x3 + x4 + x5 - Select your answer -≤≥=Item 25 30-foot rolls
x1, x2, x3, x4, x5 are integers
(b) Solve the model formulated in part a. What is the minimal amount of trim loss?
Trim Loss:   feet
How many of each pattern should be used and how many of each type of roll will be sold on the open market? If your answer is zero enter “0”.
Pattern Number Rolls Used

Emily is a career-driven thirtysomething with big ambitions and a young family. She is making an impact as a leader at a tech company, but after being passed up for multiple promotions, she finds herself at a loss for how to improve. Fate answers her in the form of a kind--and surprisingly direct--older man in a coffee shop. A well-respected CEO before he retired, David has deep and rich leadership knowledge. Emily needs direction, and David is the perfect mentor.

Growing Influence offers readers both practical advice on how to develop leadership skills and a relatable account of one woman's growth by applying the principles in the book. Unlike nonfiction business books or business memoirs, this story is a business fable that is both impactful and transformative.

Read the first section of Growing Influence, pages 1 - 63. We will be following Emily's journey in the book.

David talks about three types of influence: control, collaboration, concern; and talks about three types of leadership: positional, expert, and character. For your first exercise, I would like you to think and write about how you might define integrity in the dimension of character leadership for yourself (approximately 500 words).

Emily writes her own on page 67, FYI.
