Firms that do not have the quality human resource face challenges in managing its operations globally and in attracting quality human resource (Farndale, Scullion, and Sparrow, 2010). Therefore it is critical for firms to manage their human resource. For this reason, the practices of human resource management are decisive in the success of the organization.

The argument under discussion is a refutation of the death penalty, on the basis of several reasons. One is the assertion that the desire behind the application of capital punishment is one of revenge. As much as we want to dress up the death penalty as the balancing of some sort of scales of justice, the basic truth is that we want someone to pay for the crime that has been committed. This is the basic thrust of the argument – that when we take on the role of the hangman as a society, we actually pick up the same ...

Particularly, the debate focused with the two important and outstanding names of the history, the Father of the Western Church, Saint Augustine of Hippo with his counterpart monk Pelagius, both are involved of this argument.

Virtue Ethics

The Merriam-Webster Dictionary interprets the words “truthful” and “truthfulness” as such which “contain, tell, or express the truth” (n.d.). Basically, the word “truth” stands for a situation where something or someone depicts sincerely any unfolding of events free of deception or fraud which cannot be told about Enron’s business. The story states that the first stage of the company’s business engagement involved the energy market and in particular, trading in gas (specifically, it included a commercial chain of purchasing gas from producers and then selling it back to utilities companies) (Healy & Palepu, 2003).

Management is a crucial part of any organization—it should be guided by a good philosophy that is fair to everyone for the growth of the organization. It was hard to define a philosophy that I could use to manage my employees initially; because I had seen other managers misuse the available privileges. It means that I had to learn from both bad and good managers. Some managers pretended to be above everyone and assume that they have the final word; however, ideal manages are humble themselves and friendly to everyone. After carefully analyzing the management approach assumed by these two groups ...

Discipline and Behavior Modification

Discipline and Behavior Modification
1. The most important idea that I learned in Part Nine was the role of discipline and behavior modification theories in the manager-report business relationship. The given example concerning the performance improvement within the transportation industry was interesting for its complete lack of negative aspects. The results that the company obtained by emphasizing the positive and ignoring the negative were notable. In some ways this section was slightly contradictory, as the only discussion of what would happen if the drivers that did not meet the goals were receipt of encouragement to keep trying to ...

In such fairytales as Grimm brothers’ “Snow White”, “Cinderella” and “Mother Holle”, the stepmother is an intruder who occupies the role of the good mother and persecutes the young, beautiful and kind heroine.

Both the documents: “The Laws of Manu” and “Ban Zhao’s Admonitions for Women” talked about the role, duties and status of women in different times and places. The Laws of Manu were edited in 1913. This paper thus draws comparison between the two texts and talks about how the different times; places and religions had a huge role to play in determining how women are treated. While the Hindu version, derived from scared Hindu books, clearly shows how subservient the status of women is in Ancient India and how the only purpose of her life is to ensure that ...

The economy of the world is dynamic; therefore for any enterprise to survive in it, changes must be implemented from time to time so as to remain relevant. An example is when the enterprise resource planning software had to be changed so as to tract all processes and minimize fraud within the organization.

The recipients of some of the outputs of the previous enterprise resource planning software were also not comfortable with it because ...

1. Aquinas claims that he has five arguments that God exists. Do you think that he really has five different arguments? The first argument has to do with motion and movers, and the second argument has to do with cause and effect. Are they distinct arguments or just variations of the same argument?

There are examples of cause and effect that do not involve motion, so they are distinct.

2. Assume that Aquinas is right and there must be a prime mover or a first cause. Why must this first cause be God? That is, God is traditionally defined as a being that is omnipotent, omniscient, and omnivenevolent. Does Aquinas provide any reasons for thinking that the prime ...
