Week 5-Ch. 5 - Developing A Global Vision

Global vision is a must and a very important aspect for all  companies. Johnson and Johnson introduced themselves to many countries; such as Africa, Asia/Pacific, Europe, Latin America and the Middle east. Health care is a very important issue but providing the best health care is what Johnson and Johnson is known for. Unfortunately, Johnson and Johnson has failed to provide or job outsourced. In fact, they are labeled as a capital-intensive. They slashed jobs and closed facilities. However, they are a multinational corporation company that both imports and exports their health care products, which in fact helps them stay on top of their market game.

Week 4-Ch. 4 - The Marketing Environment

      Johnson and Johnson, since 1886-2011(125 years) is a company of enduring strength. Johnson and Johnson never fail to captivate anyone or their consumers. J n J focus is to be more and more productive and providing the essential care needed to expect from their people and everyone around the world. Unlike any other companies out there, such as Nike, McDonalds and so on; generally focus on a specific age group or catch certain age citizen’s attention. Nevertheless, Johnson and Johnson does not just focus on a generations Y or generation X, it targets all Generations Y, X, Tweens and Baby Boomers. In other words, their focus is broadly human health and stability. Their products can range from very affordable to expensive but of course Johnson and Johnson makes sure that all of their medication products being provided to their people. Whether it is Medicaid, Medicare, or life insurance, Johnson and Johnson makes sure and are negotiable to all sorts of insurance providers and supporting the medication needs for the people. Whether you are a Hispanic, Black, Asian, or Caucasian, Johnson and Johnson makes sure YOU and ALL are healthy and moving.

Ch. 3 - Ethics & Social Responsibility

      Building a company can be quite a long journey. But building a company with the right fundamentals of becoming and being a strong and successful company begins and starts with the right "Ethics and Social Responsibility". Johnson and Johnson have and is the leader in both ethics and social responsibilities. On the Johnson and Johnson corporate website (http://www.jnj.com/connect/about-jnj/jnj-credo/?flash=true) they state “Our Credo challenges us to put the needs and well-being of the people we serve first. Our Credo is more than just a moral compass- we believe it’s a recipe for business success. As a key player in the pharmaceutical and health care industry, Johnson & Johnson understands the responsibility they have when it comes to providing safe products to their consumers, as the risks tied to faulty products within this industry are particularly sensitive." With that being said, JnJ have even taken their commitment even further. They are now focusing on protecting the environment, by simply reducing energy use (Carbon Dioxide), water use, paper and packaging, and waste reduction. In fact, JnJ had cleared all Tylenol extra-strength products of the shelves. Why? An unknown suspected or suspects poured a hazardous and deadly chemical, called Cyanide. This cost JnJ $100 million dollars but they were determine and willingly to clear this product and fix the injurious crisis. This occurred around1989. Talk about Ethics and Social Responsibilities!

Ch. 2 - Strategic Planning for Competitive Advantage


    Johnson & Johnson strategic planning is to remain an impeccable and meeting all expectations of human-care consumers and for its sellers, from pharmaceutical and medical device and diagnostics markets. What makes Johnson and Johnson standout from all their competitors? The answer is their commitment to reaching out to those in need, staying faithfully loyal to their consumers. Johnson and Johnson face's major competitors, but that one product  I choose that stands out the most from all their successful human-care medication, is Remicade(Remicade® (infliximab) is a prescription medication licensed to treat certain inflammatory conditions that affect the joints, skin, or digestive system. http://arthritis.emedtv.com/remicade/remicade-uses.html).  This is what I call a "miracle expectation". after all, the Johnson brothers primary not secondary goal, was and is to put the needs and well beings of those who come first, their people, us.

Worlds trustworthy company in care

            An undoubtable daring idea of three brothers, Robert Wood Johnson, James Wood Johnson and Edward Mead Johnson, found Johnson & Johnson in New Brunswick, New Jersey, U.S; would have never thought their company would be the world leaders in transforming care for patients, consumers and communities around the world. Since 1886-2011 Johnson and Johnson still stand and going strong. In my strongest opinion, I believe that Johnson and Johnson are and will always be the most intellectual and successful leading companies till the very end. Johnson and Johnson is not just a company, but also a family who values what they produce and reach satisfaction for all out there. For those who do not agree have a look for yourself and read their "Our Credo". Thank you.
