2. Explore the topic and gather the information needed to teach your fellow learners.

At both the Bachelor and Master levels, nursing programs require courses in ethics. Thus, you have likely considered point-of-care ethical dilemmas previously; however, you can never think too much about this important topic. So much of what nurses and other healthcare professionals do daily is based in a foundation of ethics. Providing patient care and ensuring patient safety while enhancing quality and diminishing costs are all ethical practices in which you already likely engage.
A patient-focused approach, which promotes the delivery of safe, quality, and cost-effective healthcare designed to provide positive patient outcomes, represents a fundamental alignment to ethical principles for the delivery of healthcare. In your journey to become a DNP-prepared nurse, you will continue to uphold ethical principles in your nursing practice and will likely serve as an advocate for these principles in all you do.

You and your group members will function as an external consulting team. Your aim is to provide comprehensive strategic advice to aid the firm in enhancing its competitive edge. 
Selection of the Firm:  TESLA
3. Internal Analysis
The group should perform a thorough internal analysis to understand the strengths and weaknesses within the firm.
3.1 VRIN Analysis of Firm Resources
Identify the four most important resources of the firm and explain why they are the four most important resources for this specific firm. Provide an analysis of each selected resource using the VRIN framework. The resources can be tangible (e.g., financial assets, physical assets) or intangible (e.g., brand reputation, technological patents, skilled workforce). This analysis helps determine the firm’s sustainable competitive advantage by assessing if its resources are Valuable, Rare, Inimitable, and Non-substitutable.
Valuable: Explain how each resource adds value to the firm. Does it enable the firm to exploit opportunities or neutralize threats in the environment?
Rare: Assess the rarity of each resource. Is it controlled by a small number of competing firms, or is it widely available?
Inimitable: Determine the imitability of each resource. Is it difficult for competitors to duplicate or acquire?
Non-substitutable: Evaluate the substitutability of each resource. Are there comparable resources that could be substituted by competitors with the same effect?
3.2 Competitive Strategy Analysis
Determine which of the five generic competitive strategies best describes the firm’s current strategic approach. Consider factors such as the firm’s target market scope (broad vs. narrow) and the type of competitive advantage it seeks (cost vs. differentiation).
The five strategies include low-cost leadership, broad differentiation, best-cost provider, focused differentiation, and focused low-cost.
Explain why the identified strategy is the most fitting for the firm. For this justification, the group can use evidence from the firm’s operations, market positioning, and competitive actions to support your analysis.

Medication Commercial (50 points)
Instructions: Each student will prepare a short 5-minute pharmacology commercial; this could be a recorded commercial, a PowerPoint presentation (see the first bullet point under “Ability to clearly articulate information” in the rubric below), or you can use some other form of technology. Be creative for this commercial! When developing your commercial, ask yourself what information is important to highlight about the featured medication. Think about different medication commercials that grabbed your attention—what was it about those commercials that got you interested? Medication commercials we see on TV are geared toward the patient- your information should be presented in a way your patient can understand. Ensure you include all required information – follow the rubric on the next page.
