Again today we started with Marketing and Brother Eager lead the discussion after my group presented our take on the case. We had some amazing graphics. We talked about what could have been the problem for The Coop chicken restaurant. Focus groups were going to bring out qualitative results. Though they are quality, they are not in a large quantity.
We then went over the first project and how we are supposed to do that and when it's due.
We did a Mock Focus Group: (In order Left to Right)Gabrielle Ross, Rachel Huey, Jonathan Sario, Brooke Larsen, Tyler Harper, Brandon Smith

OB:
Class seemed to go too quick and I only got a few things from it. Most I got from the book, 7 Habits but we did get some good things. We had a quiz. You can find the quiz and correct answers here. That was pretty easy. We talked a bit about the problem solving skills needed and the steps involved. Those can be found in the last slide of the presentation in the last post. Start studying these. These steps are going to be useful in everything we come up against. Plus don't forget to get started on reading the Leadership book. It's a quick read, so you should be done with it over the weekend. But for people like me, it takes me longer. I read exceptionally slow and prefer to listen to my books. If you're interested in listening to them I have the Leadership and Good to Great in MP3 format and can convert to M4A for iPod. Though don't get me started on those nasty contraptions.
Anybody have any requests of outside of class content they would like to have featured on this blog that would make the class more fun or better ourselves, feel free to comment and add ideas.
