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.
Review previous resources as needed to prepare for your Signature Assignment.

Create a culturally congruent plan for reduction of exceptionally high levels of type 2 diabetes among American Indians/Alaska Natives. As compared with whites, why do American Indians have higher levels of increased smoking, obesity, and sedentary lifestyles, which contribute to the type 2 diabetes rates? Why is the Indian Health Service an important part of health care that is historically “owed” to American Indians/Alaska Natives?
Addressing U.S. American Indians (Native Americans)/Alaska Natives and Diabetes
The mortality rate for American Indians, which includes Alaska Natives (Native Americans), has increased primarily because of the effects of type 2 diabetes. The Indian Health Service has provided the Special Diabetes Program for Indians, resulting in increased spending for health care; however, the rate for age-adjusted deaths has increased as compared with white Americans.
Infectious diseases are decreasing, while chronic diseases, such as type 2 diabetes, are increasing in this population. Data collected were mainly from Navaho Indians living in the western part of the United States. Other major health issues include obesity, cardiovascular diseases, smoking, and hypertension. Also discussed was the high rate of sedentary lifestyles as compared with much greater daily physical activities historically.
Questions to be addressed in your paper:
Create a culturally congruent plan for reduction of exceptionally high levels of type 2 diabetes among American Indians/Alaska Natives.
As compared with whites, why do American Indians have higher levels of increased smoking, obesity, and sedentary lifestyles, which contribute to the type 2 diabetes rates?
Why is the Indian Health Service an important part of health care that is historically “owed” to American Indians/Alaska Natives?
