1. Discuss how Intel changed ingredient-marketing history. What did it do so well in those initial campaigns?

Intel made Intel inside marketing and branding campaign in order to distinguish itself from competitors and build brand awareness in customer minds. They chose Pentium name that could be trademark for its latest microprocessor. This marketing campaign included Intel logo in their PC and sticker on outside of laptops and their PC by giving rebates to computer manufacturer. It aided to move the Intel brand name from outside the PC and into the consumer minds in the marketplace. After that Intel used special advertisements for their products. Such as: Bunny People. Commodity product into one of famous brands was built in history through their innovative marketing campaign.

Pick any two leaders who have served as the public face of information/leadership during this pandemic. If you select politicians, try to select one each from the Republican and Democratic parties, or it can be anyone in a non-political capacity. Then use these people as EXAMPLES of type for the next section. While I realize this may be very subjected and perhaps controversial, please use these public figures as a conglomerate of examples and discuss why symbolic leadership needs to be balanced by other leadership perspectives in order to meet organizational (using this term to mean any collective body) needs.

Do you believe that long-lasting meaningful change will occur in our healthcare system because of this dramatic (catastrophic) catalyst? What type of leadership will it take?

This is the reading:

The toll the new coronavirus has taken on an economy that was healthy at the start of March came into clear relief when the government said Thursday that 6.6 million Americans had applied for unemployment benefits the week before.

No one weeps for the corporate bosses behind the decisions to lay off many of those people, but these bosses are struggling as they make the toughest calls of their careers. Marriott International Inc.'s CEO told analysts this surpasses the magnitude of 9/11 and the 2008 financial crisis combined. In a letter to employees , General Electric Co.'s CEO said this is an era where the unknowns outweigh the knowns.

Business leaders live by the calendar, attaching forecasts, projects and goals to a specific date or period of time. No one knows when state-issued mandates to stay at home will lift, and that renders a calendar about as useful in 2020 as an eight-track player. It is like stumbling around in the dark.

As quarterly earnings conference calls take place in the coming weeks, expect to hear a lot of "we don't know," "it's hard to say," and "I wish I had a crystal ball." These terms aren't typical for the managing class.

"CEOs are wired to take action," Jerry Colonna , a former venture capitalist who now counsels top executives, told me this week. "It's really hard when they don't really know what action to take. It's like taking a bucket to extinguish a fire and not knowing if the bucket is full of water or confetti."

Bahram Akradi, the Iranian-born founder of the Life Time Inc. health-club chain , is one of those CEOs looking for water in the bucket. I've talked with Mr. Akradi often in recent weeks about how his company is navigating the crisis.

The answer: It isn't pretty. Revenue has all but dried up, nearly $1 billion in new developments are on ice. "These are the facts," he told me during a Wednesday FaceTime session from his Chanhassen, Minn., office. "Empty parking lots are a fact."

Like many honchos I talk to, Mr. Akradi would like political leaders to set a firm date to reopen businesses and end rigid sheltering rules—even if that date is several weeks in the future. He also wants everyone's bills across the country to be postponed in April. For instance, mortgages or car payments due this month should be deferred to May.

Topping the list of concerns Mr. Akradi can control: the 38,000 people on his payroll. He likens Life Time to a boat in troubled waters. "We are in a big, massive storm," he told employees March 25. "We have no idea how long the storm is, or how bad it's going to get. What I'm trying to do is make sure I keep everybody on this ship staying intact and alive. That's all."

Eight days before, when he closed more than 150 clubs in 30 states, he recorded a video message telling employees Life Time could weather a two-week shutdown without breaking much of a sweat. After that, he'd have to get creative.

Last week came another video in which he had to explain why roughly 36,000, or about 90%, of employees were going on furlough as of Wednesday. The move included a commitment to pay 100% of affected workers' insurance premiums and an extra $10 million for a fund to help employees with essentials that unemployment checks won't cover.

This isn't how he wants it. "They've been with me 28 years, busting their rear ends." Now he's encouraging them to buy only the basics and try, if necessary, to negotiate favorable terms with potential creditors.

Mr. Akradi, 58, cut jobs before , during the financial crisis when a slowdown in discretionary income slammed several industries, including fitness. Even cutting under 200 jobs "felt like death, the ugliest thing I've had to do in my life." How much worse is it this time? "It is not even in the same orbit."

The day after my last chat with Mr. Akradi, I talked by phone with ZipRecruiter Inc. founder and CEO Ian Siegel as he kept an eye on two children at his home in Southern California. Mr. Siegel's had just finished a roller-coaster of a month that included laying off or indefinitely furloughing 500 people, roughly a third of the staff.

"All the way up to March 9 we were in a boom economy, and then literally overnight we were in a recession economy." Job seekers use ZipRecruiter to search and apply for jobs posted by companies on its website. Not all hiring has stopped, but listings rapidly declined starting March 10.

He had to decide whether the abrupt decline was a "shock to the system or the new normal." Without an accurate compass, he decided to plan for the worst-case scenario. "We knew we were going to have to make hard choices fast or harder choices later." He intentionally cut to the bone.

Mr. Siegel, 46, and his management team took about a week to figure out what to do. Keeping 700 employees would be manageable considering the company's liquidity and revenue levels. It likely gives ZipRecruiter enough head count to pivot back to growth if there is a sharp boost in hiring at the end of this crisis.

The process was gut wrenching; "definitely the hardest decision I've had to make." Mr. Siegel informed each displaced employee individually via videoconference, making it clear that each one was considered valuable. He hopes to rehire many of them.

Here's an important thing Mr. Siegel takes away from this process: A red hot startup like the decade-old ZipRecruiter can be sobered at a moment's notice.

"I really thought we were hardened, that we were operationally invulnerable," he said. The steps he took last month were "humbling."

These CEOs believe they will emerge and their businesses will eventually resemble what they looked like a month ago. Mr. Siegel said making necessary cuts now means the enterprise can continue to live another day and Mr. Akradi says CEOs like him are as crafty as they are tenacious.

"I'm never going to be faster than the bear," Mr. Akradi told me. "I just have to be faster than a lot of other folks."

Good advice, but outrunning the other guy just got a lot harder to do.

Jay Fulcher, the CEO of Zenefits, recently convened ten of his top executives for a management meeting, during which he asked them a personal question, “What would happen if you got sick?” He wanted to know that departments would continue to function if the people running them needed to care for themselves or a loved one due to the pandemic. How can a leader know with any degree of confidence that his/her “number two” can handle to responsibilities to lead/run a department? What are some of the likely reasons that leaders don’t spend an appropriate amount of time and resources on these types of “what if” scenarios?
