I. Problem
Robin Hood’s band is facing a lot of problems regarding the movement of his campaign, outlook of his people, and the new ways of the Sheriff. Robin Hood needs to access every aspect wherein he can develop a plan to arrange the band and lead the campaign properly.
Robin Hood’s campaign started to be a one man team. He believed that if he would be able to encourage people to join him, it would be easier for him to revolt against the Sheriff. During the second year of his campaign, the number of people who has joined him grew in numbers. This was of course favorable but has developed different problems along the way. Increase in number has directly affected the increase in camp space and food supply. The cost of buying food has also increased which results to declining of the funds of the band. Also, the increase in number resulted to a harder way to lead the members since Robin Hood does not know half of the men in the band. Discipline is running low on which caused these men to play around during raids.
The Sheriff was able to increase his range of power by being funded by Prince John which is a big threat to Robin Hood’s band. The Sheriff is becoming stronger and he is beginning to turn tables against the band.
The question is how can Robin Hood handle these internal and external problems?
II. Background of the Case
Robin Hood always had a thing for justice – in fact, he had a motto, “Rob the rich and give to the poor” which would explain why he raised a revolt against the High Sheriff of Nottingham when a conflict arose between them. Robin Hood then looked for people, men to be with him and back him up. In the first year, he disciplined the group called the “Merry Men” and united them

    Our analysis of Merry Men Incorporated’s (MMI) campaign status led to the following recommendations. The principal strategic issue MMI faces is the senior managers’ need for management skills consistent with the responsibilities for their respective positions. The first recommendation is to hire an executive coach to train each of the senior managers and to assist them with making policies and operational decisions. The second strategic issue corresponds with MMI’s need for a strategic focus. The second recommendation is for the executive coach to assist the senior managers with developing and communicating mission and vision statements. The mission and vision statement content should concentrate on creating and sustaining equality, and social justice for MMI’s stakeholders. The third recommendation is to use the new mission and vision statement as starting points for developing goals, objectives and a strategic plan. The executive coach should guide the senior managers and employees in developing and implementing the goals, objectives and strategic plan.…

    When we hear or see the name Robin Hood, we think of the heroic outlaw in the English folklore who, according to legend, was a highly skilled archer and swordsman. Traditionally depicted as being dressed in Lincoln green, he is often portrayed as “robbing from the rich and giving the poor” alongside his band of Merry Men. Robin Hood became a popular folk figure in the late-medieval period, and continues to be widely represented in literature, films and television. The nonprofit organization located in New York, the Robin Hood Foundation has a legal philosophy of “taking from the rich and giving to the poor”. The mission of this organization states that the Robin Hood Foundation is New York’s the largest poverty-fighting organization, and…

    Being different was considered an atrocious act of behavior for quite a while. Those that are different than most in anyway were shunned and ran off usually by a mob. Robin Hood was very different than most in his village as a result he was chased away by a very violent mob. After running as far as his feet would take him that day his mission now was shelter for the night. He thought he was all alone in the woods since he was disowned no one followed. He thought this until he heard a vicious snarl. Being a skilled hunter, he grabbed his bow and his arrow, but after seeing it was Bigfoot and there was no threat he mounted his bow on his back. Enjoying each others company and being thankful they were not alone they sat and talked.…

    The legend of Robin Hood has been around for nearly one thousand years. For the past several hundred years, Robin and his Merry Men have been known for stealing from the rich, particularly tax collectors, and giving to the poor; however, because this is still stealing and Robin had also killed at least one of the king’s deer, Robin and his men were known as outlaws. While they may have been outlaws, Robin Hood and his Merry Men were more like knights in the way that they dealt honorably with opponents in battle, defended the weak and helpless, and protected women and children.…

    “Robin Hood and Little John walking through the forest, laughing back and forth at the what the other'ne has to say... Oo-De-Lally, Oo-de-lally Golly, what a day.” When many Americans hear the name “Robin Hood,” these lyrics from the Disney animated movie come to mind. Howard Pyle, who wrote The Merry Adventures of Robin Hood, which was published in 1883, did not write those words, but he did write an entertaining, adventurous book for not only children, but also for teens and adults. Robin Hood is a hero to the poor, but an annoyance to the rich. The book begins with Robin Hood and his gang, called the Merry Men, in Sherwood Forrest, where they live. Robin is an outlaw and an enemy of the Sheriff of Nottingham because he has killed the king's…

    Modern Robin Hood Legends

    • 1021 Words
    • 5 Pages

    Over this period, England’s poor glorified the idea of a noble outlaw. Everyday outlaws were commonplace in medieval England, men such as Eustace Folville and his brother roamed the forests, preying on travelers. It is likely that many facets of Robin Hood’s existence are grounded in the reality of real forest dwelling outlaws. However, the man who first appeared in the ballads wasn’t just any outlaw. He was a noble outlaw, loyal to his men and adhering to a strict, if unusual, code of morals. He was of a different breed than his predecessors and contemporaries, none of whom could match his skill with a bow or knack for trickery. According to the ballads, Robin was a yeoman – neither unusually poor, nor a member of high society, but rather a commoner. Most tales indicate that he was a farmer or a forester, both of whom would have worn earth-colored clothes, not dissimilar from the Lincoln Green garb of legend. They also agree that foremost amongst his band was a very large man known as Little John. Other prominent fellows in both early and late tellings are Much the Miller’s Son and Will Scarlet. Interestingly, though Sherwood Forest in Nottinghamshire is best known as home to Robin Hood, one of the earliest and most complete ballads, A Gest of Robyn Hode, indicates that the outlaw is in fact from Yorkshire. This text also supports claims that Robin Hood was quite devout, with a particular affinity for the Virgin Mary, though he cared very little for wealthy clergymen (Rennison 14). Other early ballads establish the idea that Robin was a trickster and master of disguise, traits which manifested themselves most frequently against the Sherriff of Nottingham. If the Sheriff were not available to be taunted and relieved of his belongings by Robin Hood, the next favorite…

    Robin Hood Case Study

    Robin Hood is facing numerous problems and issues, but I think the most pressing problem is the fact that the band of Merrymen has far outgrown the available resources in Sherwood Forest. Robin Hood’s faith in succeeding by strength in numbers is quickly becoming a contributor to their downfall. Income is low at this point as well, so purchasing supplies, whether near or far, will soon become impossible. If the men aren’t fed, the men can’t function. Not only is the lack of available resources a problem, but the group itself is unorganized and is lacking sufficient leadership. The issue of the group’s decline in vigilance and discipline could lead to dire consequences, especially with the Sheriff actively searching for the band’s weaknesses, and this needs to be resolved immediately.…

    While Robin Hood and his Merry Men set out to award aid to the poor, I question what the recipients of their aid had done to earn the help. Ironically, it is the not the stealing aspect of Robin’s operation that appeals to my objection. The disagreement instead lies in the distribution of unjustly stolen goods and money to unworthy beneficiaries. I seek to erase the concept of Robin Hood from the entire world by stealing from those who need the help and returning the seized wealth back to its rightful owner – the party that earned…
