  • Signature Traits of Innovation's Leaders
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Clute Institute: Journals The Journal of Applied Business Research – January/February 2016 Volume 32, Number 1 The “In-Factor”: Signature Traits Of Innovation’s Leaders Susan Eisner, Anisfield School of Business at Ramapo College of New Jersey, USA ABSTRACT This paper was inspired by the 2013 film Jobs, the docu-drama about Apple founder and longtime CEO Steve Jobs whose leadership style in some ways so contradicted contemporary leadership prototypes that he is sometimes said to depict the “anti-leader.” That film triggered this question: Are there attributes that, regardless of behavioral bent, those who lead innovation share? Through a review of academic and practitioner literature an “IN-factor” such leaders share emerges: The intention and insistence to be trailblazers. Though leaders of innovation travel different paths and are not all alike, though some are mavericks and others break through existing challenges, though some are founders and others are successors, though some are college educated and others are not, these “Imagineers” share ten signature traits which this paper establishes should it be helpful to contemporary leadership education, development, and training. Keywords: Leadership Education and Development; Leadership Style; Leaders of Innovation; Contemporary Leadership INTRODUCTION ccording to the Merriam-Webster Dictionary, innovation is “the act or process of introducing new ideas, devices, or methods;” its first known use is noted in the 15th centuryi. Now, a Google search for the keyword innovation produces some 136,000,000 results, for importance of innovation in Abusiness produces 111,000,000 results, for innovation management produces 358,000,000 results, and for innovation leadership produces 361,000,000 results.

  • Big Tech Acquisitions and the Potential Competition Doctrine: the Case of Facebook
    Big Tech Acquisitions and the Potential Competition Doctrine: The Case of Facebook Mark Glick and Catherine Ruetschlin Working Paper No. 104 October 2019 ABSTRACT The Big Tech companies, including Google, Facebook, Amazon, Microsoft and Apple, have individually and collectively engaged in an unprecedented number of acquisitions. When a dominant firm purchases a start-up that could be a future entrant and thereby increase competitive rivalry, it raises a potential competition issue. Unfortunately, the antitrust law of potential competition mergers is ill-equipped to address tech mergers. We contend that the Chicago School’s assumptions and policy prescriptions hobbled antitrust law and policy on potential competition mergers. We illustrate this problem with the example of Facebook. Facebook has engaged in 90 completed acquisitions in its short history (documented in the Appendix to this paper). Many antitrust commentators have focused on the Instagram and WhatsApp acquisitions as cases of mergers that have reduced potential competition. We show the impotence of the potential competition doctrine applied to these two acquisitions. We suggest that the remedy for Chicago Professor and Assistant Professor, Department of Economics, University of Utah. Email:[email protected].

  • Starbucks Marketing Analysis
    STARBUCKS MARKETING ANALYSIS 10.1515/cris-2015-0002 STARBUCKS MARKETING ANALYSIS KATERINA HASKOVA Starbucks first opened in Seattle in 1971 (Starbucks, 2014) and has grown from one store to 19,767 stores today. With over 160 thousand employees worldwide (Forbes, 2013) this company has become world famous and brings high quality coffee and beverages to its clients over the world daily. Their well-known mission statements is: to inspire and nurture the human spirit – one person, one cup and one neighborhood at a time. In the Unites States of America 54% of the population over 18 years of age drinks coffee daily and the total American drinking population spends 40 billion dollars on this beverage yearly (Harvard School of Public Health, 2014). According to the following statistics, there is large market potential in the world for this particular service and production; Starbucks along with many competitors, such as Costa Coffee or McCafe, have seized this opportunity and continue to innovate within this market. It is no doubt that this market can be profitable; in 2012 Howard Schultz, the CEO of Starbucks, was classified as the 8th best-paid CEO in the United States of America making 103 million dollars of profit (Rushe, 2013). Throughout this report, we will be looking at the marketing techniques Starbucks uses daily and identify the key techniques that bring them the competitive advantage. Firstly, we will analyse the current marketing strategy, look into detail at their branding, and explain how it brings value to the customer, discuss the ethical engagements and importance of CSR used, and lastly, analyse the relationship between marketing strategies.
