This case (1834.0 and related epilogue 1834.1 and abridged case 1834.3) tells the story of Major General David Petraeus and the US Army's 101st Airborne Division in the months following the March 2003 invasion of Iraq, the fall of Baghdad, and collapse of Saddam Hussein's government. Having completed their combat mission, and with just a few days notice, the 101st is ordered to Mosul, Iraq's third largest city and the capital of Nineveh province. Their orders were spare - get up to Mosul and Nineveh Province and get things under control. The case details the development and implementation of the 101st strategy to bring stability to Mosul and the surrounding area and provides insight into General David Petraeus and his approach to leadership. While set in a military organization in wartime, the case is not about military operations. Petraeus and his division, with little notice or preparation, undertake traditionally civilian tasks associated with reconstruction and governance. HKS Case Number 1834.0

This case traces the development of genetically-modified (GM) foods in the United States and in Europe. The US had from the start a commanding lead in GM food developmentand a correspondingly large stake in global acceptance of GM seeds and foods. The case describes evolving and contrasting US and European consumer attitudes toward GM foods, a general acceptance in the US, versus a worried rejection in Europe. The case discusses how US government and corporate leaders were convinced at first that Europe was indulging in protectionist activity, but came over time to understand that the European reaction was mostly consumer-driven and derived from citizens' suspicion of government's ability to understand and regulate scientific discoveries sufficiently to protect public health. Still, US food corporations were alarmed when in 2002 Zambia refused to accept desperately-needed US food aid on the grounds that US-made GM products might preclude Zambia selling its own produce to Europe.

Two years later, Braun has a revolutionary new shaving system and is struggling over how to communicate its benefits to the market. Its novel feature, an automatic cleaning center, is not quite yet debugged, which adds to the concerns of those who believe that the new shaver, outstanding in itself, should be launched solo, leaving the cleaning center as an attractive accessory. Others believe that Braun needs to offer more than "just" a new shaver at a time of declining market share. How they launch and market this new product around the world may determine the fate of the Braun brand into the 21st century. For a company whose new "brand promise" is "Designed to Make a Difference," a critical challenge is how to position the radically new product both to gain new, convenience-oriented consumers and to keep loyal, conservative customers who want "only a closer and more comfortable shave."
