On Jane’s first day, one team member tells Jane there is an unresolved incident that she needs to deal with. A customer slipped and fell when paying a bill in the reception area and as this is part of Jane’s team, she now needs to deal with the incident. The incident occurred two weeks ago when the team was in transition between leaders and follow-up has not occurred.
Jane reviews the WHS policies and procedures, and finds that the organisation doesn’t have a comprehensive procedure for investigating and reporting incidents in its administration areas. There is a template for recording the incident’s basic details and an incident register that is kept in the human resources unit. The health and safety representative for Jane’s area is on long-service leave. The WHS policy merely states:
Incidents are defined as any event that causes injury, potential injury or may be classified as a ‘near miss’. All incidents shall be recorded in the incident register, which must be readily accessible.
TASK 2: Suggest a communication strategy for Jane to review the organisation’s objectives with her team.
TASK 3: Jane needs to prepare an electronic presentation to her new team to communicate expectations in a way that builds commitment. Provide an outline of the points Jane should include in her presentation.

She is working towards building a positive team environment and culture but there is still a long way to go. Jane strives to be a positive influence and role model by sharing information, helping and assisting team members, supporting team members with resources and information and also encouraging discussion and team work. Jane has been informed by senior management that the long-awaited and much-dreaded computer system upgrade is to be implemented in her department in the next three months. This is because the organisation wants to update with new technologies.
She is asked to provide feedback and decide which of the two proposed systems will suit her department’s activities better: option one is the PRO356 and option two is the LXS841 system. As well, Jane needs to develop a risk management plan for senior management covering the introduction of the new system for her department. Jane is concerned about how her team will respond to the IT changes. Jane has turned to you as her mentor for support. Read the questions below and provide some strategies for Jane that address the needs outlined in each question.

Brand Introduction
Nivea is a Germany based personal care brand that manufactures specialized skin care products. The German skin care giants are planning to launch an exclusive sunscreen product named Nivea protect and moisture sun lotion within a few days. The specialized brand of sunscreen has been designed particularly for use in scorching hot sunlight. With a protection level of SPF 50 the product will garner huge attraction in the market once it is launched in the market. The immediate absorption formula of the mentioned product provides the users with an advanced form of collagen protection that resists the formation of wrinkles. The application of the product restores the lost moisture of the skin that tends to dry out due to the immense heat caused as a result of exposure to the sun. The manufacturers claim the product to be non-oily, non-greasy and resistant to water or any other liquids. The product has a price range of $ 10.39 in Australia. Its reasonable price will surely attract a lot of people who are familiar to Nivea products and also the people who are willing to buy it for testing the product. The management of the company has to formulate a proper marketing strategy before the introduction of the new product in the market (Hunt 2014). This will be helpful in successfully marketing the product.
Objective with the New Product
The marketing team of the company must fix some objectives for the new product. Some of the objectives that the product should have are;
- Differentiating the product- The differentiation of the sunscreen with the other similar products of the market is one of the key elements of marketing the product successfully. The product must be differentiated on the basis of the quality and the additional features that the product brings in with (Hunt 2014).
- Building a Brand – The marketing team assigned to market the product must use the product to establish the brand or build on it (Tantalo and Priem 2016). The brand serves as a promise to the customers. The new product is a follow up to the earlier range of Nivea Sun Screen products but has an entirely new range of features. Therefore the following product must be aimed to build a brand name for the product.
- Acquiring the Customers- The marketing strategy should be used in such a way sop that it can acquire a large group of customers in a short span of time. It will be much wiser to spend money on potential customers rather than targeting the money towards the unwilling customers.
- Promoting the product- Product promotion must be the top priority of the company as because it has been designed to suit some specific needs of the customers (Wilson et al. 2014). Thus a proper promotion model will help to display all the features of the new product to the customers. A number of different channels can be used to promote the product which includes digital media, print media, social media, public promotions and many more as such.
Primary and Secondary Target Market
Primary Target Market is the specific group of consumers that the company wants to target for buying a specific product or service of the organization. The management of Nivea has to fix the primary target market of the product (Tantalo and Priem 2016). The target market of Nivea sunscreen will be based on market segmentation of which information will be collected from the database of the company. The company may also choose a specific area of sales where sale of sunscreens has been exceptionally well. Primary target market also involves niche marketing in which Nivea identifies a handful of loyal and trusted customers for presenting a quality marketing of the product to them.
Secondary target market is the second most important target group of customers that the mentioned company may focus to promote and sell their new range of sunscreen. However in this particular case the company has little interest to promote the product in markets that have shown less growth in the past and has rather concentrated in promoting the product through primary marketing (Möller and Parvinen 2015).
Main Competitor and their Product
Garnier is one of the main competitors of Nivea in the global market. The main product of Garnier sun screen is the Garnier Skin Naturals Sun Control Moisturizer. The following product has more or less the same qualities in comparison to Nivea but has the advantage of being much cheaper than that of Nivea Sunscreen to be launched by the aforesaid company.
Marketing Mix
- Price- Price of the mentioned sunscreen though reasonable is much costly than many other products currently existing in the market. However the better quality of the products along with the provider of great values for every single product. The market value of the product thus has a crucial role in the determination of marketing strategies for the particular sunscreen lotion.
- Product- Nivea has a vast range of products for selling in Australia. The product here mentioned is a premium quality sunscreen that is set to be launched in a few days. The premium features of the sunscreen will make it a must buy for all the people who tries to avoid the scorching summer sun (Kumar 2015).
- Place-Nivea has a wide presence in the whole of the island nation. As mentioned earlier the management of the company has to undertake a thorough analysis on the sales report of the present sunscreens of the same company. The area where the sales are the highest must be given priority for promoting the products. However when the sales figures stabilizes it is better to promote the products in lesser known markets where the sales figure isn’t that good enough (Knight and Liesch 2016).
- Promotion- Promoting the latest sunscreen is a huge challenge for the mentioned organization because of the reputation of Nivea in Australia. The company has to promote the product in such a way that it reaches the customers of the organization.
Most Influential 4P’s for Capturing the Market
The most influential among the 4P’s of marketing in this particular case is the pricing strategy of marketing. The price of the sunscreen has been kept reasonable considering some sharp criticisms during the launch of the earlier sunscreen product of the same organization. The cost effective pricing model has been selected by the organization in this respect and thus it will be a significant marketing element for capturing the market in a very short period of time as because both the loyal as well as some of the new customers will be buying the product.
