MADS 6606 Final Paper Requirements

An example for a paper might include an examination of how CEO James Burke (Johnson & Johnson)

handled the cyanide tampering incidents with its Tylenol products back in 1982. Section III might address

Burke’s upbringing in rural New England and Section IV might address any major life events that resulted

in Burke’s value-driven approach to business and crisis management. Section V would note his leadership

ascension in J&J as well as any other notable positions he held. Section VI would outline the

crisis/event/accomplishment under examination. Section VII would delve into any of Burke’s leadership

attributes. Information for the TLP will be forthcoming to facilitate the development of Section VIII.

Section IX could examine either the J&J followers within the organization or J&J customers. Section X

could address how Burke’s leadership is perceived as a result of how he handled the Tylenol crisis (example:

J&J’s handling of the Tylenol incident is a model for corporate crisis communications today).
