Discuss how you would implement the concept of Triple Bottom Line (People, Planet, Profit) at the NAB company you created? 

The concept behind the “triple bottom line” is that companies are responsible to all their stakeholders. This includes everyone who is involved with the company whether directly or indirectly, as well as the planet on which we all live. This approach sees shareholders as part of the stakeholder group, but only as part of it. Before writing your response to this week’s discussion, please review the following resource for more details on the triple bottom line: https://www.mindtools.com/pages/article/newSTR_79.htm.

Discuss the implications that evidence-based research has on the success of healthcare marketing.

The future of healthcare marketing is promising; however, balancing strategies with tactics is a controversial topic. Some argue that healthcare marketing initiatives must rely on empirical evidence to produce desired results, while others posit that classic intuition is the most effective driving force of successful initiatives. As the industry continues to advance, this debate will continue to grow, and with it, the potential risks for leaders associated with healthcare marketing will also grow.
