The CSR Pyramid encapsulates the four levels of responsibilities that a business organization must ideally ...

We have recently come to a time where college education has grown to mean little apart from the increasing concern over high college tuition. Maybe it is only fair given the unreasonably huge cost which the colleges are charging, one which is rising even faster than inflation itself. But it is worth exploring the true benefit which is beyond the monetary cost itself here. College is far beyond its worth in money and people from previous generations are quite likely to be in agreement of what college meant and the benefits that it brought into their lives.

There is something to be said of simplicity. Unless a situation calls for it, no matter how complex, it is usually less than wise to split and peel off items from the centralized core. Having autonomy can be useful in some situations. However, keep things as basic and unified as possible is the best way to go. In many ways, this has been the mode of operations for the Project Management Book of Knowledge (PMBOK), as authored by PMI. However, their fifth edition of the PMBOK describes the ostensible need for a split when it comes to project management ...

A second, more pessimistic, view on the welfare state, according to Pateman (1987) is that it provides the government with new approaches to exercising power over and governing the ...

Negotiation is the most basic method of conflict resolution. It is backward and forward communication between the parties of the argument with the objective of trying to find a solution. It is a process of combining diverging viewpoints in order to arrive at an agreement. Negotiations can prevent or end a conflict while guaranteeing that both parties get at least fraction of what they desire. When both parties obtain major advantages, the negotiation is considered most successful. Nonetheless, any negotiation involves the risk of making a bad deal, and sometimes, a failed negotiation can worsen the existing conflict (Zartman ...

Abstract:

Strikes are one of the ways in which conflicts between employers and employees become known. Although they are rare, the effects of strikes are usually major and can affect the involved parties and public for a long time. Usually, strikes are usually a last resort measure when trying to solve conflicts and are considered the most damaging to employers. Employers will therefore try to avoid strikes as much as possible opting for alternative conflict resolution measures that are less damaging to their interests such as mediation and conciliation (Gennard, Judge, Tony, & Richard, 2016).

Indeed, participation in tertiary education promotes national economy and innovation (Wierenga, Landstedt, & Wyn 2013, p. 3). The factors that compromise a young person’s ability to obtain a tertiary level education are socioeconomic disadvantage, rural location, and being an indigenous Australian (Wierenga, Landstedt & Wyn 2013, p. 4). Stafford, et al. (2007, Mental Health, para. 1) define ...
