    The document discusses three questions and responses: 1. The response agrees with Sun Tzu's principle of "Capture your market without destroying it" because it allows a business to survive and prosper by targeting underserved parts of the market or using subtle indirect approaches rather than price wars that damage profits. 2. The response would follow Machiavelli's principles as a manager because organizations should be aware of Machiavellian leadership tendencies and communicate openly to address any negative impacts on employees. 3. The response presents a theory that most barangays are primarily concerned with technical-political problems of action and choice, and that achieving political ends can justify immoral means, focusing on skill in pursuit of goals

    1. Which among the principles of Sun Tzu do you strongly agree with and WHY?

    - “Capture your market without destroying it”. Sun Tzu calls this the need to “win-all-
    without-fighting”. Since the goal of your business is to survive and prosper, you must
    capture your market. However, you must do so in such a way that your market is not
    destroyed in the process. A company can do this in several ways, such as attacking
    parts of the market that are under-served or by using subtle, indirect, and low-key
    approach that will not draw a competitor’s attention or response. What should be
    avoided at all costs is a price-war. Research has shown that price attacks draw the
    quickest and most aggressive responses from competitors, as well as leaving the
    market drained of profits.

    2. If you were a manager, who will you follow - Machiavelli or Sun Tzu? WHY?

    - If I/we were a manager, I/we will follow Machiavelli’s principle. As a manager of an


    organizations should identify and pay attention when such leadership behaviors are
    manifested. To achieve this, organizations may cultivate an open and friendly
    communication and culture which will allow subordinates to somehow express their
    complaints and worries regarding their high Mach supervisor in the top management.
    Even more, in the case of Machiavellian leadership, organizations could benefit from
    making the specific leaders aware of their inclinations and, consequently, their
    harmful effect on employees’ outcomes

    3. Formulate a theory based on your observations in your barangay.

    - Theory: "Most barangays are essentially concerned with the technical-political


    problems of action and choice". Because in reality, the specific logos of politics
    would be defined by a typical statement which is widely considered to be
    Machiavellian: the attainment of the (political) end justifies the use of (immoral)
    means. From our observation in our barangays, when action and choice are
    considered merely as technical devices (means to achieve ends), then the theory of
    political action focuses exclusively on the skill with which the ends are pursued such
    as a strong bridge, a good stab, a functional building, and a smart move. Hence the
    subject of the action is either skillful or not: this is all that can be said about it. This
    much pertains that the subject maintain a merely technical relationship with means
    (which are of use or not to achieve ends, but should not be judged immanently) and
    is completely isolated from ends ( which are supposed to be self-evident or given).
