•Compare the relevant cultures in the case using Kluckhohn & Strodtbeck and at least one other cultural theorist i.e. Hofstede, Hall or Trompenaars. Each theorist uses a number of dimensions. You will need at least three dimensions in total regardless how many theorists you draw on (the more dimensions you use the deeper your analysis). Make observations about relevant cultural elements related to the case.
•This section comprises your summary of notes needed to complete the rest of the analysis, hence there is no length limit and no strict formatting. Refer to the practice case exemplar for ideas on how to write up this section.
5) What information do you need to solve the problem? Explain. How can you actively seek the information you need to solve the problem? Explain your analysis/answer in five (5) or more sentences.
6) What theory or theories can you formulate concerning this problem? Carefully analyze and interpret your theories and draw reasonable inferences. Explain your analysis/answer in five (5) or more sentences.
7) Determine your options for action. What can you do in the short term? In the long term? Recognize your limitations in terms of money, time, and power. Explain your analysis/answer in five (5) or more sentences.
8) Evaluate your options, determining their advantages and disadvantages. Explain your analysis/answer in five (5) or more sentences.

First on the scene of any emergency, firefighters respond to natural disasters, accidents, medical emergencies and fires – despite increasingly limited resources. Across the country, funding challenges have left many volunteer and paid fire departments without adequate resources to do their job.
In 2004, Fireman’s Fund Insurance Co. (FFIC), a national property and casualty company, launched a multimillion dollar corporate philanthropy program, “Fireman’s Fund Heritage,” to provide grants to help fund equipment, firefighter training and fire safety initiatives for fire departments in communities where its employees, agents and policyholders live and work. More than a traditional corporate giving program, Fireman’s Fund Heritage was designed to build trust in the Fireman’s Fund brand and create a more inspirational corporate culture. In year one, it would be critical to engage employees in the program and demonstrate its importance to the company’s brand.
Create an internal communication program that would generate excitement among employees in the new philanthropic mission and give employees a sense of pride in the company.
Find a media article (blog post, newspaper
article, etc) that uses or summarizes inferential statistical findings from a peer-reviewed journal(!). Discuss the
information dissemination process—e.g., from article to press release to newspaper article to blog—and then
read closely the original article. Use knowledge gleaned from class to explain the statistical inferences as best
you can (ie, note p-values, hypotheses, and confidence intervals as appropriate). How did the media article do at
explaining the findings? Is their summary accurate or misleading? Although the article may contain statistical
concepts beyond the level of this class, it will most likely be based in things that we are learning. Perfection is
not required, but sincere effort is. Please turn in a one-page write-up, the journal article, and the original media
piece.
