Primary Task Response: Within the Discussion Board area, write 300–500 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.

Unit 2 has discussed how sociologists identify cultures and subcultures. Cultures and subcultures have unique components, such as language, values, norms (behaviors), and food. For this Discussion Board, you will dive deeper into culture by completing the following:

  1. Choose a popular television show (examples include The Simpsons, The Big Bang Theory, The Goldbergs, and Orange is the New Black) or a movie you have enjoyed.  
    • For your chosen show or movie, provide specific examples for each component of culture (language, values, norms, and food) found within your show or movie.
      • For example, in The Simpsons, language can be seen with the word "D'oh" and the phrase, "Don't have a cow, man!"
    • Each TV show could be said to represent a subculture of mainstream society. How do the four components of culture (language, values, norms, and food) identified above combine to create a group that is different from or similar to other groups you would expect to see in mainstream American culture?
  2. Finally, choose 1 of the following theorists: Durkheim, Marx, or Cooley. What does your chosen theorist say about the role of culture in shaping human behavior?

  1. Read the fees paid by ‘N’ patients into a one dimensional array in random order. Develop an algorithm, flow chart and write a C program to arrange the fees read in ascending order. Display the result with appropriate statements.

  1. Develop an algorithm, flow chart and write a C program to read the name of a patient which has a multi word and display it and the acromatic string of the name.

Sample Output : Name : Khamis Al Araimi

                           Acromatic String: AKAA

  1. The clinic wish to give 15% discount on the fees to be paid by the patients whose age is above 60.

You work for an international food and beverage company, and the CEO of the company wants to introduce a new product in the US market for 2021. Your team is charged with the following tasks:

  1. Develop a new food/beverage product concept that can be brought to market by 2021.  The product should have broad appeal for the US market (i.e., nothing illegal or distasteful).
  2. Present a five-year marketing plan to upper management that includes a description of the product, a plan for where it will be sold, a summary of the existing competition, projected industry changes (using a supply and demand framework), and recommended promotion strategies that can help to sustain sales volume and profits for several years.
  3. The CEO is especially concerned about the risks of a persistent recession in the next 2-3 years, so your plan should consider ways to make the new product less susceptible to recession.

You should assemble a document that addresses each of these components for the product launch. The points assigned to this project are evenly divided among 6 components -- product description, prediction of industry changes using supply and demand, competition summary, marketing and promotional strategies, recession resilience, and presentation quality. So, you should allocate most of your effort to the economic components of this analysis.

Requirements: Provide a 1,000 word (or 4 pages double spaced) minimum paper. The title page should include the list of all members of your group.

Ensuring appropriate communication in teams is essential. The dynamics of a global economy has increased the complexity of both team operations and project success. Planning for communication creates a schedule for planned communication and reinforces the trait among team members. In projects, a RACI (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed) chart is often created to ensure that all of the different stakeholders are included at the right level of communication. In addition, communication plans are also developed to plan out a schedule for the frequency of communication.

As a manager of the technical team, you are leading your entire team on a project. Your project team is geographically dispersed with developers in Phoenix and India. You use the "follow-the-sun" approach to development. Therefore, your U.S. team will transfer development to India in the evening and there is another transfer back to the U.S. in the morning. You are implementing updates for new functionality to the CRM application for the call center, which has locations in Phoenix and India.

Create a RACI chart and a 500-750 word communication plan in which you accomplish the following:

Identify what needs to be communicated and the stakeholders in the RACI chart.

Assign the appropriate designation to the stakeholder for the item that requires communication (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed).

Create a communication plan for the stakeholders to include method and frequency of communication.

Create a communication plan for your project team to include method and frequency of communication.
