Improving Sustainability: Yum Brands

Business Sustainability is often defined as the process by which an organization manages its financial standing, social risks and opportunities. In short, sustainability is the process through which a company handles its entire business and the influence of its decisions on financial standing, community and the environment. However, in the context of this paper, we believe that this definition is more of a theoretical concept because in a more pragmatic way, sustainability is all about surviving the shocks by sculpting the organizational policies and connecting them to a healthy social, economic and environmental system. Henceforth, in order to discuss ...

Introduction

Two University of Rochester professors collaborated on a paper called “Self Determination Theory and the facilitation of intrinsic motivation, social development and wellbeing” that was published in the Journal of American Psychologist . This article focuses our thoughts on the wellbeing as contingent upon the successful proportion of three ingredients: Autonomy, Competence, and Relatedness. These three nutrients feed and develop our sense of self. The more accomplished individuals are increasing the ingredients that cause their lives to be successful in the eyes of others that are not as accomplished. Contrast these two writers to David McClellan in 1961 who wrote ...

Article Review

Article Review I review such article as “Gender Flux: Transatlantic Influence on Fashioning the Cross-dresser in American Silent Cinema” by author Ricardo E. Zulueta. It has been published in the journal “The Journal of Dress, Body and Culture” in 2015. It should be noted, that until now, there is no single view of the nature of gender. On the one hand, gender is associated with the models, which are developed for the scientific description of the problems associated with gender issues. On the other hand, gender may be considered as a social phenomenon, which is created by people in ...

About the paper

Embezzlement, funds misappropriation, cheating! - Whatever the method or whatever the name you give it, corporate frauds are rampant and an ugly truth associated with the market around the world.

Irrespective of the eventual outcome of such scandals, it is the shareholders that suffer the billion dollar losses and a lost faith in the Wall Street. Unfolding such events takes us to the traces of Enron and Wordlcom. However, there were also healthcare ...

Governments’ ability to identify, finance, and provide desirable medical services is under increasing pressure from aging populations, consumer expectations, and escalating health-related technological costs. In the US, health expenditure is nearly sixteen percent of the GDP with bureaucracy consuming about thirty-one percent of the expense (Gorman, 2008). In addition, up to forty-five million Americans lack adequate access to quality healthcare. However, the principle obstacle facing the healthcare system is the shortage of well-educated medical doctors who are adequately prepared to handle the various challenges encountered in the profession (Gorman, 2008). Thus, improvements in the education and certification of doctors ...

Introduction

Over the past few months, the Customer Service department is facing a serious challenge in filling up the growing need for Customer Service Representatives (CSR) positions. This situation, if sustained much longer, may negatively impact on the superior quality that the company is providing its customers to support its high-quality products. The problem appears to be multi-faceted, which can only be determined until a thorough review of the job, the work flow, and job requirements (i.e., CSR knowledge, skills, and experience), in relation to current workloads and expectations, has been conducted. To insure an effective and efficient problem determination ...

Question 1 Response

BIG’s business model involves developing innovative toy concepts and sharing them with manufacturers who develop the products. Despite being a relatively small and young company, Big has managed to bring into the market the most innovative concepts when established companies feel they lack the necessary innovation. One of the reasons why BIG is so successful in developing innovative toy concepts when major companies find it difficult is because BIG is mainly focused on understanding consumers rather than technology. Big is not concerned with latest technologies that can be incorporated into the toy industry. Rather, the company goes out ...

Communication Skills in a Cross-Culturally Diverse Workplace

Introduction

Globalization has given rise to an environment that continues to change in terms of complexity as local business expand and begin competing with other businesses for a share of the vast global market. Globalization has essentially compelled corporations, nations and by extension, regions to be overly interdependent (Adair, Hideg & Spence, 2013). This has resulted from greater consumer awareness that has resulted in the development of new standards and demands resulting from the fact that different nations project varying cultural inclinations (D'Netto et al, 2014). Nations and more specifically business are embracing the ...

In our present time, holy places are primarily in a closed building. It suits the expectations of our current society. People seek comfort in cool air, comfy pews, and embellished statues and windows as they worship. I happen to enjoy that as well. I feel like a holy place can be wherever there are holy people. But if I had the opportunity to build a place of worship centuries ago, it would be way different. The older I get, the more my holy expectations flourish. First and foremost, I do believe that God speaks through nature. I feel that ...

For over a century higher education guaranteed its holders good position in the society and corresponding income. However, the economy, the society and even the higher education have been changing. Is higher education the only option as it was before? Is there any alternative to it? Do graduates really benefit from all this years of study? Thus, it is obvious why in the last two decades the researches started arguing about the expediency of higher education. After first harsh words this discuss seems to come to more effective and rational course. However, authors still disagree whether or not the ...

Introduction

Every organizations are not without a stakeholder. It only means that every organization is rightfully composed of different individuals who are classified as the “organization’s stakeholders.” In an article published in 2014, the author described the stakeholders as the brand of the organization.

For a warehouse-style like Mac’s that seeks to pass the savings to the customers by minimizing costs, it is crucial that customer service is impeccable. This is because the low prices are often viewed to mean low-quality goods. As such, the customer service is critical to ensuring that the customers who visit the store are persuaded on the quality of goods, turn them into repeat customers and enable them to advertise the business through word of mouth. The customer expectations for the cheap and affordable stores are often lower as compared to their expectations with other stores. The ...

Waiting for Godot was written precisely after the World War II, and it is a commonplace to link the Theatre of the Absurd with the postwar trauma and disgust, a somewhat attempt to get rid of an acute sense of shame. However, the main themes of the play are rather controversial and questionable. We may admit that, among other things, Beckett thoroughly focuses on the subject of power. More precisely, it is about power and interdependence -- the complex relation between master and slave (it is clearly evident on relations between Pozzo and Lucky). Who suffers more master or ...

Hunters and Gatherers in the Classroom

Abstract At the young age, schoolchildren are very segregated by sex and gender stereotypes still define the norms of their looking and behavior. This requires interference from the community and educators. The male role of hunters and female of gatherers seems to be subjected by the course of history, but if to think more deeply, parents raise these associations in their children by themselves. Popularity in school does not necessarily mean an educational success or exceptional leadership skills. It is very difficult for both ‘hunters’ and ‘gatherers’ to maintain their status or to win the place among the popular ...

According to Jon Gertner’s, article, “The Futile Pursuit of Happiness” humans are not poor judges when it comes to foreseeing future emotional states. Professors of psychology in various universities Daniel Gilbert, Tim Wilson, Dan Kahneman and an economist George Loewenstein have embarked on studying a specific emotional and behavioral prediction. One of their studies was hedonic forecasting, which refers to the prediction of one’s emotional state in future as a process that affects behavior, preferences, and decision-making. For an instance, how do we imagine emotions and feelings about winning the lottery? How that will affect our delight, ...

Introduction

High performing and self-directed teams are found to be one of the greatest assets of an organization, as they help in achieving predefined goals and objectives. However, if these teams are not developed and managed appropriately, they can lead the organizations towards severe consequences. It has been established from the analysis of the study that was conducted by Biech (2007) that managers usually find difficulties in the establishment of high-performing and self-directed teams. In the present case, I have just attended a meeting with the manager that had the agenda of conveying information about the establishment of high performing ...

Understanding of what motivates employees in the public sector has been an issue of concern in the recent past. The increase in competition and unpredictable world economy has forced many managers in the public sector to develop strategies that ensure that the public sector obtains high levels of output from the workforce (Matheson, 2011). According to Word and Carpenter (2013) work motivation is the internal and external force that acts as catalysts for the workers behavior. It is the desire of a person to work hard and remain committed to the organization’s goals. It is imperative for the ...

They are the following: “novice,” “advanced beginner,” “competent practitioner,” “proficient practitioner,” and “expert practitioner” (Black, 2013). In addition, it was claimed by Patricia Benner that the advancement of the professional competence of ...

The healthcare system has never been under immense pressure to perform than it currently experiences. This is based on the increased population and demographic figures which have in effect signaled a significant increase in the cases presented at the healthcare facilities. Further, the increased prevalence of chronic and acute illness within these populations has forced the healthcare system to work to the expectations of the society to help met their health needs (Puetz, 2013). In order to manage these expectations on of the major revolutions that have occurred in the healthcare sector has been the expansion of the role ...

Change management can be described as changing the organization’s current practices to new ways of doing things. This can be achieved by a series of activities that include education, communication, leadership, and teamwork. All the stakeholders must change their values such as teamwork, tolerance, as well as responsibility to ensure that there is flexibility in the organization (Cameron & Green, 2004). This paper discusses the different organization management models that can be used by businesses to respond to various environmental changes such as consumer behavior.

Motivation is a primary need for employees to appreciate their jobs and have optimal performance. Employees are motivated differently. There are those motivated by money while others are not motivated by money but by being recognized and rewarded (Lauby, 2005). Although money, as a form of extrinsic motivation, is one of the main reasons why people go to work every day, the workplace is a bit different since it relies on staff motivation to achieve a high level of productivity from the employees, which on the other hand increases revenue. Motivation can be defined as the different processes that ...

What is the difference between demand “Wallahs” and supply “Wallahs”? “Supply wallahs” focus on the idea in which the policy makers of the educational systems emphasize on the strategies to incorporate education in the society by means of providing students with the educational opportunities and ensuring the availability of the skilled educators in the educational institutions. However, “demand wallahs” are focued on the idea of limiting the availability of the educational opportunities when they are not required in the society and hence, the lack of parents’ interest in availability of the educational opportunities is considered as ...

In every organization, the employees are the most important and vulnerable resource. For that reason, the motivation of these employees is critical to the success and increased productivity. Motivation includes the internal and external factors that are likely to stimulate a desire and energy in an employee to remain interested as well as dedicated to a given job or to remain focused to achieve a given goal over a period (Phusavat, 2013). Motivation can take two forms as some employees are money motivated while others are motivated by recognition and rewards. The managers have the power to motivate or ...

Do you think that army has reflected their culture in orientation program? Westwood & Johnson (2005, p.6) have mentioned to, ‘ensure that all aspects of your orientation program reflect the unique culture of the organization and that messages about values are both explicitly ...

Question1: Precarious Work Environment and the State of Psychological Contract

Psychological contract refers to the beliefs held by individuals regarding promises made and accepted between themselves for their common interests. In a work environment, psychological contract of workers varies considerably. In many cases, there remains a big spasm between actual physical contract and psychological contract (expectation from the other party). The ultimately goal of any organization is to bridge the gap between actual expectation and perceived expectation (Sharkie). However, in dangerous or precarious work environments such as Steel foundries, Ice manufacturing, police job, fire-fighting, meat packaging and other heavy manufacturing, the state of psychological contract is often different from ...

Introduction

The case for sex against gender as bipolar concepts is controversial. If anything, "gender" has arisen as an increasingly adopted concept in social sciences as part of feminist postulations about "inherent" differences between women's femininity and men's masculinity, particularly as to emphasize "gender" as a basis for social and cultural distinction and "sex" as a biological difference between women and men (Haig, 2004). This distinction appears, however, to be more than a linguistic one. Further, in being adopted, both concepts appear to raise calls for re-examination of initial usages – and, for that matter, applications – of both concepts as to ...
