Prolia® is indicated for Post Menopausal Osteoporosis (PMO) and has been advertising direct to consumers since March 2012. In late 2013 the Brand and Agency team commissioned qualitative research aimed at uncovering how to motivate women to act more decisively with respect to their PMO condition. That project yielded the powerful strategic insight that patients do not have to passively accept stasis can instead reconsider if they are doing all they can to strengthen and protect their bones from the potentially debilitating effects of PMO. The current concepts under consideration aim to take advantage of this powerful call to action and motivate Bio-Naïve Treaters and non-Treaters to ask their doctor if Prolia would be right for them. …show more content…

As part of the process, the team tested four creative ideas. The qualitative phase will be followed by a quantitative assessment to determine final campaign direction. This report documents the findings of the qualitative research. Aging Boomers and Silent Generation women are at a powerful crossroads in life. For so long, their lives were defined by taking care of others. Now that they have grown children who have their own children, they are confronted with designing their own next chapter and thoughtfully evaluating how they want to move forward. They want new adventures: big ones and great big little ones. Living with PMO in a culture that values youth, beauty and activity is not for the faint of heart. Not only is the physical body at risk of fracture, but the psyche is wounded too Pretty shoes are replaced sturdier flats and so goes a sense of femininity Care-free exertion becomes ‘paranoia over falling’ Marks the end of participating in favorite activities like dancing, rollerblading,

  • Working Women In The 1950s

    731 Words  | 2 Pages

    During WWII, women took over the work force, and had such inspirations as Rosie the Riveter. This created a generation of women who wanted more out of life than birthing children, and keeping a nice home for their husband. The end of the war, however, brought with it a decrease of working women. In the 1950’s the rate of working women had slightly rebounded to 29% following the post-war decrease in 1945. These women were well rounded, working outside the home, and still having dinner on the table by 5PM.

    There are conflicting viewpoints involving the “mommy track.” Supporters of the track claim that women cannot make it to the top of their prospective career fields and be the primary focus in their children’s lives. They say a “mommy track” would allow these women to maintain their careers while playing a vitally important role at home. Those opposed to the creation of a “mommy track” claim that it is separate and unequal, permanently derailing women’s careers, making them ...

  • Life History Interview Research Paper

    This reflection paper is based on the life history interview conducted on me and a 78-year-old woman who is soon going to celebrate her 79th birthday on Sep 21st. I would call her with a fictitious name “Smita” in the entire paper to maintain and protect her privacy. The interview was about our life. It was divided into six major life categories: childhood, adulthood, identity, the present, aging, and life lessons. Having an opportunity to interview a 78-year-old woman and writing this reflective paper about the life history and experiences had made me realize that I have a lot to learn about the stages of human life. Every individual lives are different and it varies tremendously. As an interviewee my goal was to collect the details of life, different stories, and experiences that makes our life unique from the rest of the people.

  • The Gender Revolution: Uneven And Stalled By Maudia Wland Analysis

    1277 Words  | 3 Pages

    Story’s article, “Many Women at Elite Colleges Set Career Path to Motherhood,” introduces Cynthia Liu, an ambitious student at Yale who plans on going to law school. However, she expects a different future by the time she is thirty. Cynthia states, “My mother always told me you can 't be the best career woman and the best mother at the same time” (Story, 2005, p. A1). This particular situation sets up the rest of the article, focusing on this idea that the nation 's most elite colleges say they 've already decided to set aside their careers to take care of their children instead. The article further supports the situation of working women in the past couple decades, and how this influence has changed over time. “What seems to be changing is that while many women in college two or three decades ago expected to have full time careers, their daughters, while still in college, say they have already decided to suspend or end their careers when they have children” (Story, 2005, p. A1). This is evidence supporting why gender in the workplace has worsened in the past two decades, because women are being stressed to make decisions based on other people 's judgement instead of their own. The article continues to talk about this trend of women 's set career paths to motherhood, but they also address how social change plays into the decision making.

  • The Role Of Single Motherhood

    1189 Words  | 3 Pages

    As history and technology changes, the pre conceived notion, and mold for a woman’s role in society is drastically redesigned in accordance to what becomes deemed as socially accepted. From even as current as years of adolescence the “traditional” role of a housewife was instilled in youth, but when factors such as technology, and the economic collapse, these traditional roles were quickly discarded. Women now had to grasp the concept of supporting a family, and in some instances coming home to a stay at home husband due to lack of job demand, and with the rapid growth in technology and inescapable access to technology younger generations of women are no longer depending nor fixed on the notion of fulfilling a traditional mold. Instead with

  • Changes in the Roles of Women

    975 Words  | 2 Pages

    The roles of women changed drastically between 1950’s and 1970’s due to the political, economic, and social issues, but women’s lives also stayed close to the way they had always been. The lives of women changed in a plethora of ways throughout the years. “We believe that women can achieve such equality only by accepting to full the challenges and responsibilities they share with all other people in our society, as part of the decision-making mainstream of American political, economic, and social life” (Statement of Purpose, 1966).

  • Middle Adulthood Case Study

    1064 Words  | 3 Pages

    This paper will focus on the latter part of middle adulthood. Middle adulthood represents the time in life between ages 34 to 60 (Newman & Newman, 2015). Since the middle adulthood is the longest stage of the life cycle, this paper will focus on an individual within the age of 45- 60. Individuals in the middle adulthood stage begin to develop concerns about future generation. They feel the need to contribute to the world through family and work. These feelings and thoughts are referred to as generativity. Erik Erikson refers to the problem posed at this stage as generativity vs. stagnation (Newman et al., 2015). Stagnation occurs when an individual is self-centered and unwilling to help society move forward. Several changes begin to
