Nine months after rollout, Rainer’s plan seemed to have worked quite well. His skincare company and product line had already topped the $1 Million mark and showed no signs of slowing.   The line was formerly owned Zirh Skin Nutrition, a male skincare line that was acquired by Shisheido in 2000. Rainer immediately recognized an underserved market segment among young people ages fifteen to twenty-nine, a group he called “Generation Me”. A combination of Generation X and Generation Y, Generation Me had long been ignored by the more recognized skincare companies, which tended to make products to help older consumers fight such skin ailments as wrinkles and recondition ageing skin.

ACTIVITY/TASK Traditional shopping centers (shopping malls) are under significant pressure to adapt to a changing macro-environment, as shoppers demand more attractive experiences and increasingly move online. This prediction was made by property market forecaster BIS Shrapnel who expect that shopping centers be challenged as online retailing takes a larger share of total shopping dollars, and as competition between established stores increases. According to Senior Project Manager at BIS Shrapnel, Maria Lee, “If you’ve got a much lower level of turnover growth and you’re getting the internet taking share away, then it is a lot more difficult to cope with and certainly some shopping centers are going to get squeezed.

A PERSONAL CRUSADE The senior leaders of DM Bicycle Company filed into the conference room, their hands full of coffee containers, BlackBerrys, and the agenda for that morning's meeting. With the end of the fi scal year in sight, the CEO, Gino Duncan, wanted to discuss sales projections for FY11. "Good morning, everyone," he said. "Thanks for coming in early. I know y'all can't wait to break down the budget, but before we get started, do you notice anything unusual outside?" He gestured at the window behind him. Carolyn Bridges, DMBC's HR [human resource] director, peered down on what looked from the 10th floor like a procession of shiny beetles scuttling down the Bicentennial Greenway. They were actually bikers wearing helmets that reflected the bright North Carolina sunlight. "Lots of cyclists out this morning," she said. Carolyn had ridden the Greenway many times since she joined the company, but she couldn't remember ever seeing so much traffic. "Bingo!" Gino said. "More and…
