Albeit being well known for their movies, TV shows and theme parks, The Disney Company is a company with one of the largest platforms for “citizenship”. Supporting various causes such as sustainability, healthy living for the community and development for the creative mind, Disney could be considered to be making dreams come true, especially for the less fortunate. However, Disney also works on supporting another platform: the most recent investment being into a start-up called Jaunt.

Though moving money to another company could be seen as a liability as Disney would lose funds, the act of investment into this business could prove to be an asset. The Motley Fool reports that Jaunt, a virtual reality camera maker, could help develop Disney’s movie quality and art, aid in the development of new attractions in theme parks such as Disney Land and Disney World, be used for development in games, and much more. Disney’s investments into aspects other than their main sources of revenue would help them due to the formation of goodwill, which could help value the company at a higher price. The concept of goodwill, as well as Disney’s acts of citizenship show that a business is not only valued by its material worth.

Music itself may not be totally killed off from the world. However, the industry may be falling, like the number of purchased music while music downloads increase. According to CNBC, music’s murder could be blamed on three culprits: the leakers (those who put the music up for free), labels, and musicians.

Because of leakers, the music industry had started to decline. After all, with the option of getting something cheaper, or even better, for free, who would want to buy the higher priced products? Music labels are also to blame due to their inability to foresee the upcoming demand of music streaming as well as their lack of security to prevent leakers in the first place. Artists, because of their actions of simply skim reading record label contracts, which could be seen as a sign of ignorance.

However, that aside, is there still hope for the music industry? With the emergence of music streaming applications such as Spotify and the newly released Apple Music, the industry’s revenue could improve, especially with the amount of revenue generated from the rights to have the songs available on the application, and from other businesses to have their ads play in said applications

So, is the music industry dead? Not yet. And hopefully, it won’t need to be.

Groups of people will have times of conflict. The events have such high probability that it could be considered a fact. However, what would happen should the groups of people be unable to solve their conflict? Air France and the union of their pilots had failed to reach an agreement to accommodate the airline’s plans to reduce spending by 170 million euros per year for three years, which. Because the pilots had refused to accept what they considered to be a cut on their pay, the airline would announce job cuts on Monday, as reported on an article found on Market Watch: Air France-KLM to make significant job cuts.

Although job cuts would help the airline’s balance sheet, their actions could earn them bad publicity, which in turn could also reduce their sales should customers view the airlines under a bad light. Even if most customers would appreciate the fact that the airline could maintain their affordable prices, should other customers know about the price that had to be paid for this pro, in the worst circumstances they may even protest against the airline, which could bring up more problems with stakeholders such as the community.
