STRATEGIC MANAGEMENT PROCESS/VISION, MISSION, GOALS AND OBJECTIVES
Simulation
To begin you first need to first run the simulation using the Default Decisions. In other words, use the prices and R&D percentages that are already there (do not change any decisions made by Joe Thomas). Simulation link: https://forio.com/simulate/michael.garmon/wonder-co-simulation-v2/simulation/
Capture or collect the results for each product (W1, W2, and W3) for each year that you run the simulation. Copy (using Excel) the financial results and marketing results, as well as the information provided by the Advisor.
REQUIRED READING:
Read the following scenario carefully before you proceed:
SCENARIO
It is December 31, 2016. Joe Thomas, the VP of Marketing at the Wonder Company, is smugly patting himself on the back for how well he has done with pricing and product development of the three company products: W1, W2, and W3. Of course, Joe knows his strategy was not creative at all (i.e., he did not change any prices or R&D allocations over the past five-year period: 2012 through 2016). But he is certain that he really did not need to change anything anyway, and that his overall performance is proof of his good work.
Sally Smothers, the CEO of Wonder Co., knows better, and she fires Joe (but why did she wait so long?).
On the same day Joe is fired, you are hired to replace him. And so here you are, on December 31, 2016, as the new V.P. of Marketing of the Wonder Company. You are ready to move the company ahead into 2017. Your boss, Sally Smothers, expects you to make intelligent and informed product development and pricing decisions.
Assignment Expectations
Write a 6- to 7-page paper of written analysis (not including cover and reference pages), using Sallys instructions, which follow:
Sally asks you to review Joes decisions from 2013 through 2016 to see what was going on in terms of product development, sales, pricing, and performance. Your final report is due on Sally’s desk by January 15, 2017 you have only 2 weeks to run the simulation, analyze your results, and write up the report, so you had best get started on this now!
Using the default decisions (i.e., make no changes within the simulation), analyze Joe Thomas’s decisions and results, and then write the report that Sally is requesting. Access the Wonder Company simulation and collect the data for each year. Determine where you believe Joe went wrong, and propose a new strategy. Support your revised strategy using financial analysis and relevant business theories.
Requirements for this paper:
The key aspects to this assignment that are required to be covered in your paper include:
TIPS AND SUGGESTIONS:
Please note the following tips and suggestions:
Include a cover page and reference page, in addition to the 6-7 pages of written analysis described above.
Use section headings as appropriate. Use graphs, charts, or figures strategically but do not use these as “space fillers.” Include large tables or graphics in an Appendix instead.
Cite and reference all sources that you use in your work, including those that you paraphrase. This means include citations and quotation marks for direct quotes, and citations for that information which you have “borrowed” or paraphrased from other sources.
NOTE: You will be asked to make business decisions under conditions of incomplete information and uncertainty. To do so effectively, you will need to make assumptions based on how it relates to the ways in which markets operate. To this extent, you need to rely on models, financial analysis, and theories. In addition, the simulation will give you some additional market information as you progress. Crunch the numbers and present your data analysis professionally by creating some simple tables, charts, and graphs.
