Introduction:

The global economy’s output has definitely expanded at an unprecedented rate for the past 25 years. In spite of this, the benefits of this growth have only been experienced by the developing world to a limited degree. This cannot be ascribed to any failure of underdeveloped countries as a group to share in the global economic expansion. In fact, their per capita incomes have been rising steadily over the past quarter century than in previous times. The failure lies in the distribution patterns of earlier growth which alienated the poorest groups from the sphere of economic growth and material developments.

Poverty caused by the family structure impacts on both the parent and children. The age of children also affects poverty rates.

Feigenbaum defines quality as an “excellent-driven” rather than a “defect-driven” process. However, such a definition will depend on the role of people defining it. According to Feigenbaum, there is no system of universally defining quality because some people view quality differently. For instance, some view quality as “fulfilling the customers’ needs” while others view it as “conformance to the standards or specifications set”. In the context of healthcare – particularly the case study – the physicians or doctors will have a slightly different viewpoint regarding quality in the hospital. The nurses too will have their own viewpoint while patients will tend to define quality ...

While diversity and equality represent the goal in today’s multicultural society, racialized groups continue to be disadvantaged in the business environment.

Cause of Accident

The collision of two Boeing 747s i.e. KLM Flight 4805 (KLM) and Pan Am Flight 1736 (Pan Am) at Los Rodeos Airport in the 27th of March 1977, was a consequence of a series bad judgments and poor luck.

What seems to be the cause of the conflict?

The core of the conflict is a toxic organizational culture, which has been allowed to emerge over overtime. An organizational culture comprises numerous aspects, key among them being communication, leadership, collective values, mission/vision, practices, diversity management, regulations/policies, place, and organizational narrative. The leadership failure created by the past operational manager, particularly his appointment of supervisors without a moral authority over the employees, resulted in a complete breakdown in leadership, which when coupled with the lack of formal policies (and best practices) in issues such as the use of radio and stringent recruitment checks, resulted into conflict, ill motivation, belligerency, ...

Poverty in its numerous forms has progressively attracted the attention in Brazil during the last decade.
