There are thousands of car accidents because the operator is not paying attention to the road; when a car suddenly breaks it just takes a second to notice, and if you as a driver is choosing to be on
It was a minor flaw that doctors were not involved in the initial trials to point out some critical design flaws. It is important to have proper market research by talking to customers or the end user before continuing on. This happened to turn out alright though since Newland was forced to have several suppliers where quality could be monitored more closely. Although quality was improved, manufacturing lead time was reduced in order to coordinate several different suppliers.. Newland was debating whether to focus on improving manufacturing capacity, which would boost appeal as an acquisition for potential buyers. I would recommend that they do pursue investing in manufacturing to help sell their product since their original strategy was to have the company acquired from outside investors.
Re-building the trust of our customers is not worth the potential gains of sharing their personal information and there would have to be negative repercussions for anyone who attempted that type of unethical behavior. Like any other company, we would also have to maintain awareness of the ethical integrity of our marketing strategy. We would not want to put off a negative public image by promoting any negative stereotypes. It would also be our social responsibility to aware of the culture of the people we were marketing to. It would be unethical to market our mobile app as something only a "higher quality" of people should use.

This paper will show there is no common sense in banning all firearms as a means gun control and it leaves law abiding citizens increasingly vulnerable to violent crimes.

If a patient needs treatment but they are not covered, that may motivate a counselor to place an incorrect billing code on an invoice to get paid for an non-covered service. While the counselor may believe this to be the best thing for the client, it is not ethically or legally allowed. This behavior actually hurts the industry as more regulation will be placed upon the counselor who will have to take more time to prove their compliance. That time they are using to prove compliance is time they are not seeing clients or generating revenue. One aspect of counseling that is very helpful is the licensure that is granted to counselors by the state.
For example, the Apple iPhone has successfully transformed the mobile handset industry, thus creating a great deal of exchange value for Apple, and use value for its consumers. However, Apple’s ability to realize extraordinary profits (exchange value), while at the same time provide cutting edge technology to its consumers (use value) has created some challenges that Apple faces with respect to ‘managing for value creation’.

The real challenge is to figure out a mutual beneficial solution which satisfies the needs of the various stakeholders.
