Define brand authenticity and the two orientations (corporate and social), and assess Levi Strauss. Is their response one of Atone, Allure, Acknowledge, or Advocate? Or are they a combination of the four responses?
Read "When a Brand Stands Up for Racial Justice, Do People Buy It?" located in the Topic 8 Resources. The authors wrote the article in response to the recent media attention around social justice initiatives triggered by the killing of Black people by police officers. The authors use the idea of "brand authenticity" as a way to gauge the sincerity of the brand as it relates to social issues. The authors assert that brand authenticity has two orientations, corporate (as defined by issues of continuity and credibility) and social (as defined by integrity and symbolism).
Read "The Price of Being Political" located in the Topic 8 Resources for an additional perspective on this topic.
Finally, read "We Stand With the Black Community" located in the Topic 8 Resources. Levi Strauss is an iconic American brand. The president of Levi Strauss & Company posted a letter on the company website about the same time this article was written.
Refer back to "When a Brand Stands Up for Racial Justice, Do People Buy It?" Using the four-windowpane matrix in the article titled, "Consumer Perceptions of Authenticity of Racial Justice Brand Actions," evaluate Levi Strauss's response.
In 300-350 words, briefly address the following:
Define brand authenticity and the two orientations (corporate and social), and assess Levi Strauss. Is their response one of Atone, Allure, Acknowledge, or Advocate? Or are they a combination of the four responses? Defend your choice(s).
What does this lead you to conclude about Levi Strauss as a brand? Does the brand's stand make you more or less positive toward the brand, whether you purchase Levi's or not?

Describe and give examples of how the challenges managers face in todays world are characterized by uncertainty, ambiguity, and sudden changes or threats from the environment.
One of the most difficult components of effective management and leadership is uncertainty. Uncertainty exists everywhere in an organization. Each of the four functions of
management (planning, organizing, leading, and controlling) is affected by uncertainties that lie within an organization and its operations. However, many uncertainties that affect an
organization are external to the organization itself. These cannot always be controlled, but they must be planned for when possible, and adapted to when planning is not possible.
This final week contains a culmination of the concepts introduced throughout the course and is designed to help you think about future challenges involved in management.

Child obesity is a medical condition that affects both teenagers and children, resulting in having too much fat stored within the body and negatively affecting the child. There are many factors that contribute to childhood obesity in America. One of the key things is that only 2% of children in America get healthy foods. That means that 2% or less consume a well-balanced diet while 98% or more children do not receive proper nutrition. Obesity in children contributes to reduced life expectancy, and there is a need to develop better eating habits among the children to rescue cases of the chronic trend. To address this problem, I went to the CINAHL database under the nursing database options. I then conducted a search for “childhood obesity” and “prevention” to obtain evidence-based results for this topic. There were thousands of articles to choose from so I randomly browsed the options until I found one that would pique my interest. The most consistently mentioned intervention for the prevention of childhood obesity was nutrition and exercise. More specifically, the nutritional patterns of the parents were more likely to indicate the risk of childhood obesity. For this problem, my intervention will be a nutritional training program that is family based coupled with structured family exercise. Eating behaviors include poor diets where the child might be eating foods rich in fats and sugar such as fast foods, particularly snacks (Suarez, 2020). Calories should be limited for sugary foods and those rich in fats (Filgueiras et al., 2019). All instructions in attachment PICOT: Does parental nutritional and exercise behavior have a greater effect at preventing childhood obesity when compared to behaviors that kids are exposed to outside of the home?

Crisis management and crisis communications are specialized business disciplines. In times of crisis, companies can act in a number of ways, from ignoring the situation and hoping it passes in the next news cycle to aggressively defending itself after the fact. Smart companies have plans that can be used in any crisis situation.

Develop a series of scenario statements that you write ahead of time that you will present to the management and legal departments so that they may be used swiftly in a time of crisis.
