The first section of the scene was solely Donna explaining what was going on and the current situation of the party. The next section starred Melissa-Anne and Rodney; this was when they were waiting for Donna to pick them up, they were in Rodney’s bedroom. The following section was again of Donna and she was explaining to the audience that she had realized what was actually going on and also she started to compare herself to the present situation. This continued into the final section of the scene with all 3 characters in it. Donna was in the car with Rodney and Melissa and was talking to them about her personal experiences with alcohol and other existing issues. This scene was very important to the play because it was the set up for the party and hence Rodney’s death. It was also important because it gave an insight in to the relationship of Rodney and Melissa-Anne and showed that Donna wasn’t as responsible as she was initially made out to be.…

    As noted throughout this analysis, Jamba Juice has a number of organizational issues. Primarily, Jamba Juice mismanaged their rapid growth, which reduced their margins, increased their operating expenses, and stalled their cash inflows. Failure to instill any organizational culture of financial discipline allowed these problems to permeate throughout the company. The seasonal demand of smoothies was another issue, as it created downturns in revenue at certain times of the year. A lack of thoughtful marketing and advertising strategies, especially as Jamba Juice expanded across the nation, failed to take advantage of their strong brand and create more awareness and interest.…

    It is probably the largest chain of smoothie bars in UK and they also provide snacks along with the fruit juices and smoothies (Mercer, 2007). The major strength of this chain of Smoothie bars is that it is an established brand in UK and provides a comprehensive range of snacks and smoothies. But owing to the rising prices of smoothies, they have not managed to achieve the same growth in revenues and have been expensive to the liking of many. What they have been doing is to expand their product line rather than cutting down costs to capture a larger customer segment (yelp.co.uk, 2014). This is where we can excel as we are focusing on providing quality smoothies and fruit juices at affordable prices by keeping moderate profit margins to cater larger customer segments. Our strategy is to increase profit through more and more customers rather than through high prices or profit margins. We will also be catering home delivery for gaining competitive advantage in the local Fulham…

    The managers and team members of each store make an impact on sales, customer service and the overall Jamba Juice experience for the consumer. This means that having the wrong manager or team member in place will affect the store as a whole and ultimately drive down sales. When hiring Jamba Juice looks for people who are “passionate about Jamba and the culture and values of FIBER: fun, integrity, balance, empowerment and respect.” The company culture is an important aspect of hiring because they must find the right match between the company and the new employee. Since it is customer based, Jamba Juice looks for energy and passion along with the ability to lead and demonstrate fairness. There are two types of employee hires, general manager hires and team member hires. General managers (GM) run the entire store from ordering inventory to cleaning. They also act as the main human resource department for his or her store. The success of the store and overall business lies within the GM’s hands. In order to find the right people for the general manager positions, Jamba Juice tries to first promote from within. If a store is looking for a new GM, all of the surrounding stores in the area are contacted and asked if any team member could be a potential candidate. Jamba Juice encourages promoting from within to increase motivation as well as to ensure that the…
