...business research is a systematic inquiry that provides information to guide managerial decisions. In other words, when a company or business needs to make any type of managerial decision like expanding or liquidating, for example, the process of how and what data is collected is all part of business research. It is the information collected that will help managers and business owners make the best decision. While I served in the military for eight years, the U.S. Air Force has practiced business research that has resulted in how the Air Force will proceed in the future. The military uses many ways to collect data. One method they use quite often is by conducting surveys. The Air Force quality of life is known to be at a higher level than other branches. In an Army barracks you could find up to three soldiers sharing one room. On the other hand, in the Air Force provides one room for every airman. It is this quality of life that keeps retention rates higher in the Air Force rather than the other branches of military. At the same time, though, it is not the Army or Marines main mission to keep retention past the soldier’s first or second enlistment. As missions and technology change, the importance of business research in the military workplace is high. Our military budget and the data related to funding effects how the managers and military leaders make their decisions. Now that the war in Iraq is over, many of the military contracted companies are going through major changes...

...these behaviors include topics of motivation, leader behavior and power, interpersonal communication, group structure and processes, learning, attitude development and perception, change processes, conflict, work design, and work stress. The U.S. Army is the only organization that I have been exposed to since I started working as an 18 year old and I’ve seen many different forms of organizational behavior throughout these 15 years. When I first entered the military in 1997, the Army was extremely strict and structured. It’s still a bureaucracy and structured type of organization but back then it seemed to be extremely structured and strict. At least I perceived it to be that way as an 18 year old coming straight from home. As privates we stood at attention or parade rest for anyone that was higher ranking than us and had to do everything we were told to do without question. This was something that I was not used to and really thought that I had made a mistake in choosing to enter the military. My first 4 years in the military seemed to be a nightmare for me and I really did not think I was going to stay in past my initial enlistment because I hated it. My supervisors were mean, I felt like I worked like a slave because we worked every weekend, and I couldn’t get off the overweight program so I was constantly harassed...

...How Facebook is Changing the United States Military Nathan Haselhorst CI3155 Computer Ethics 9 August 2013 Abstract This paper details how social media, specifically Facebook, has made an impact on the different branches of the United States military. Throughout the work, manuals, periodicals, news stories, and an interview with a Lieutenant General are used to distinguish the advantages and risks associated with social media as a whole, with an overwhelming reoccurrence of Facebook references. The ability to communicate around the world, whether a General’s speech becomes available to the public five minutes after he or she delivers it or just a service member telling their loved one “good night” from thousands of miles away, is the greatest attribute Facebook provides the military and its service members. With every great benefit comes a risks and Facebook is not immune to those risks; identity theft, loss of personal and operational information, and negative feedback to a leaders post are what drives the military crazy about Facebook. How Facebook is Changing the United States Military Since 1775, the members of the Armed Forces have held a respect amongst this country’s population. As time has passed and technology has evolved, the United States military has become more accessible, attractive, and engaging to the public. Facebook, the world’s largest social media website, has played a key role in recruiting, training, communicating and planning. Facebook...

...Sexual Harassment In The Military Specialist Edward J. Nofe Headquarters and Headquarters Company, 18th Military Police Brigade Grafenwoehr, Germany January 5, 2015 Joni Ernst is a well-respected United State Senator from Iowa. She has served more than 20 years in uniform. She is the first female combat veteran to serve in the Senate. She along with countless men and women in the military has been a victim of sexual harassment. The truth is nobody is immune from this problem certainly not when you still have reports ranging from inappropriate advances to sexual bribery. Sexual harassment is a form of gender discrimination that involves unwelcome sexual advances, requests for sexual favors, and other verbal or physical conduct of a sexual nature between the same or opposite genders. Harassment differentiates from assault in the sense that harassment can be directly associated with your work setting.

All individuals in the unit must be treated fairly and with mutual respect .The consequences of sexual harassment affects the individual in the workplace through stress, physical fitness, and reenlistment intentions.

...Part 1 Abstract Physical fitness is a mandatory requirement by all military personnel. This enables the soldiers maneuver through their daily endeavors of protecting a nation. The nature of the job on the contrary places soldiers at the risk of injuries some of which may materialize at the most unwarranted moments. The military therefore require a highly mechanized medical service, one that secures quality (Patrick,1998). Quality in the provision of medical services encompasses a number of factors key among which is accuracy in diagnosis, treatment and drug prescription. Additionally, data in the medical spheres require secure and integral storage. Most of the diagnoses especially those associated with terminal recurrent illnesses depend largely on the patient history. All the patient details therefore require a secure database and an appropriate filing mechanism. Initially, all these activities were performed manually or mechanically with the medical system relying on paper back files and manual diagnoses. These had a number of pitfalls given the dynamic nature of military operations. Soldiers keep moving from place to place depending on the security needs of the country and they will always need to have their medical services with them. Mechanical administration becomes cumbersome in such conditions with portage prove difficult. It also becomes difficult to keep a sequential filing system for references (Marion, Ball & Joan, 2004). Technological developments...

...she liked. It was not just Satrapi who faced changes but other families as well and even the society as a whole. Although there were many changes in the lifestyles of many, there was a great impact on the military, women, education and in many adolescences. To begin, the military began recruiting teenage boys at age fourteen living in poverty which created a change in the military. This was a change within the military because at fourteen one is still considered immature and has not mentally or physically developed to the fullest. To join the military one should be mature and fully grown. Many of these fourteen year old boys were tricked into joining the military. They were given a key painted gold representing value. They were told if they were fortunate enough to die, the golden key would open the door into heaven. They were promised a better life than the one they were living in the lower class. As Mrs. Nasrine, Satrapi’s maid, explains, “‘They told him that in paradise there will be plenty of food, women and houses made of gold and diamonds’” (100). The lifestyles of these teenage boys were changed completely. At such a young age their teenage years of finding love and friendship was taken away by a key painted gold. Not only were there changes in the military, women had their rights and freedom taken away. Furthermore, women faced many changes during the war. At the start of the...

...Class NT2580 Introduction to Information Security Unit 3 Discussion 1 1. For this company I would say that the 12 computers that they have should have passwords on all the computers. The reason why I say this is because they only people who should have access to these computers are they people who have the password or know the password. That is why this is the best protection for this construction company. This construction company will have a role-based access controls. This means with the uses that they have on site will have special groups based on the access they require for the company. 2. For this company since they all contact one another with smart phones and have 12 computers each and every one of these users should have an identification number as in a pin for each and every one of them that way they can all be able to be identified. On this company they are required to have a rule-based access controls. The reason why I require this for this company is cause each user is going to have access to a phone and computer which requires each and every one of them to have a pin in order for them to access their devices. That is why this access control is so important on these devices cause if they don’t know there pin then they will not be able to gain access. 3.

...The military worked best off of knowledge and technology. There was training conducted daily to get the job done and giving the other members that was flying the aircrafts the ability to complete their missions. With knowledge there was very little room for error and with the technology inside the aircrafts; the pilots never had problems when it comes to getting every mission done. There was one thing that the military lacked and that was physical assets to the parts or personnel that is needed to get the job done quicker. Knowledge means acquaintance with facts, truths, or principles, as from study or investigation (Dictionary,2011). This means in the military there are ways that every individual gain the knowledge to work in the field that are in on active duty. Each and every command in the United States Navy have to conduct on the job training daily and training from the book twice a week. The way they conducted that when it comes to be book training is to get a member of the lower paygrade to do the research and come up with a plan to train everybody else n the shop. By doing this it helps the individual to utilize the book and know where he got that information just in case they come across a problem. With the on the job training they can see how to do the job while using the materials at hand like laptops, paper manuals, and the tools that is needed to complete that job. The United States Navy also have certain quals that each member have to get in a certain amount of...

...of the workforce. The first division I worked for was designing, engineering, and assembling communication systems for the US Navy. The leadership was made up almost exclusively of retired or former military. The culture was a nice blend of the military type rules and regulations, coupled with the freedom that allowed each of us the room to make mistakes and not be humiliated by our supervisors. My second division was a little different experience. We were contracted to work overseas in Afghanistan and Kuwait. The fact that we operated in a war zone made things a bit different from the start. Leadership consisted of 100% retired military and our culture was very much like being back in uniform. Now, in both divisions we followed the same CREDO and SAIC Policy book, but the approach to these guidelines was very different. In one division I felt empowered and part of a Team I could contribute to on a daily basis. The other division created an atmosphere that upward mobility was not an option. SAIC created its very own intranet they called, ISSAIC. SAIC adapted ISSAIC as the primary channel to communicate with the workforce. Through ISSAIC, we were provided financial, human resources, and good to know company information. ISSAIC was very successful in providing information about the company, resulting in many supervisors, managers, and division heads doing away with team meetings to discuss company topics. It is my firm belief that this created many missed opportunities...
