Background Globalization is simply becoming world-wide or making it world-wide. It exists at a lot of places in different sizes. Globalization is to create a good world economy. This could be done by big multinational companies. The reason why I mention the multinationals is because of the influence that they (can) have on the economy worldwide. After all, the world trade plays the biggest part in it. However globalization and the free world trade don’t automatically mean that the well-being is divided all over the world. But where did it start? Who started it and why is it so important for the well being of the world? Well, the globalization existed during different levels/steps. People/companies with power from the past created our current globalize civilization. The first level was when the South conquered the North and applying economical structures.

...MGMT 422 – Management Concepts Term Paper Dr. Rogers Group: Globalization By: Troy Tolson Jr Romel Reaves Hector Gray Demonte Alston Globalization Globalization is the process of increased interconnectedness among countries most notably in the areas of economics, politics, and culture. Put in simpler words, globalization is growth on a global scale. A more common example of globalization is the fast food industry; sweeping across our nation especially, fast food, which has quickly become one of the richest corporations in the world. From first-hand experience, one can prove that through the years eating out, or eating on the go, has become far more common amongst American citizens as well as those in neighboring countries. The strength of need, or global demand for a product or service plays a major role in its global distribution. There is no exact date when globalization was said to have started but most studies claim it started around the 19th century. Although there is no set date, the history of globalization can be broken down into three waves or periods. The first wave began in 1870 and ended at the beginning of World War 1 in 1914. It was characterized by a decrease in trade barriers and an advancement in transportation technologies. This resulted in a major migration of about 10% of the world’s population. The second wave occurred from 1950 to 1980 during which multiple trade agreements occurred between developed nations,...

...there are some of the most important; globalization, technology, innovation, diversity, and ethics. Each other these has had a hand in leading the four functions from where they used to be to where they are now. Planning is an important step when it comes to being an effect manager. Globalization is when a company is operating worldwide, planning becomes very important when a company reaches this stage of success. If planning was nonexistent in a company that had achieved globalization, the company would not last much longer. Being able to even reach globalization without effective planning would be extremely difficult. Technology is used effectively with planning when a company is able to communicate the direction they are going in, or any information that they see fit across the internet. Technology has also helped with planning when it comes to smart phones, palm pilots, and other types of digital planners. Innovation helps the planning function by constantly updating the way in which to communicate and save data. The amount that you can save and the privacy that can be enhanced all helps planning in a business setting.

...started by describing what servant leadership is. Servant leadership is described in an essay published by Robert K. Greenleaf. In his essay, Robert Greenleaf said: The servant-leader is servant first… It begins with the natural feeling that one wants to serve, to serve first. Then conscious choice brings one to aspire to lead. That person is sharply different from one who is leader first, perhaps because of the need to assuage an unusual power drive or to acquire material possessions…The leader-first and the servant-first are two extreme types. Between them there are shadings and blends that are part of the infinite variety of human nature (www.greenleaf.org, 2008). Servant Leaders are respected, listened to, and valued, even though they may not manage others (Davies, 2006). In short, servant leaders are individuals that lead by asking how they can help. They are not motivated by personal goals to gain authority. True servant leaders are motivated by a personal need to help others and create a positive change in there surroundings. Now that you know what servant leaders are, let us explore the traits a servant leader should have. According to an article written by Tony Davies, servant leaders model five traits.

... Krugman is the outstand- ing international economist among his generation and has played a leading role in virtually every important development in international economics during the past decade, making path-breaking contributions to the "nonmonetary" theory of international trade and, in the study of open-economy macroeconomics, to the analysis of the determinants of exchange-rate movements. While in its sheer volume Paul Krugman's scholarly output has been nothing short of phenomenal, the quality of the individual papers and their impact has been still more impressive. If he has not been the sole contributor to the major reorientations with which his name is associated in our thinking about international economics, and about economics more generally, it must be acknowledged that in remark- ably many instances he was first and most influential. Paul Krugman joined The New York Times in 1999 as a columnist on the Op-Ed Page and continues as professor of Economics and International Affairs at Princeton University.Mr. Krugman received his B.A. from Yale University in 1974 and his Ph.D. from MIT in 1977. He has taught at Yale, MIT and Stanford. At MIT he became the Ford International Professor of Economics.Mr. Krugman is the author or editor of 20 books and more than 200 papers in professional journals and edited volumes. His professional reputation rests largely on work in international trade and finance; he is one of the founders of the "new trade...

Managers would use globalization to expand their business globally, and to increase sales and representation of company’s existence. The use of technology is very important for a manger to know as an instinct. Technology is everywhere in today’s modern world. Managers who don’t know how to use the computer or know how to type, is really pretty much useless in reality. It is very important for managers to learn how to communicate efficiently with the use of modern technology such as chat and e-mail. Innovation is a key success point in a creative manager. Managers should always be looking for new innovative ways to do things. For example if a manger uses chat and e-mail to communicate, will a manger will be better off if they were to use social website to not only represent and market the company but communicate broadly to all employees at once.

Globalization is a large part of sustainable prosperity. The reason why I think this is because look at the developed countries like Canada, America we all have a cellphones. Then look at developing countries they don’t even have clean water.

...organizations have been penetrated or fallen prey to criminal activites; additionally, wth globalization these problems have begun to affect individuals privacy and security of the information that they provide to governments and companies (and "friends), so that they can receive services. There seem to be increasingly frequent incidents perpetrated by both insiders and outsiders against commercial and government organizations. The number of known vulnerabiiltes is approaching 50,000 and is growing by 10-15 a day. The sophistication of threats, both internal and external, is growing at something around 2000% per decade. New modes or methods of attack seem to be invented daily - bad things happen that are not repeats of prior actions. Social engineering has become part of our culture through social media and as a result of desire of companies and governments for information about customers, citizens, (and about 'marks). To be vigilant one must know what (s)he is looking for; and we are simply not able predict what might happen in the future; and there is ample evidence that today's best predictive models are not very good at doing so . Furthermore, vigilance is expensive in actual and theoretical resources - it takes people, technology, dollars, and time, and it takes experience, training, and the will to be vigilant; we must know the risks and manage them objectively - all of this is very difficult and expensive, and it does not seem to be working as the events...
