...ACHIEVING MY SUCCESS HOW TO USE TIME MANGEMENT WISELY MEGAN BELANGER COLLEGE SUCCESS SETEMBER 14, 2015 College success to me would be using your time wisely because it is very valuable and every moment should be cherished. Time cannot be hoarded, collected, earned or bought with money but should be cherished like we would cherish a precious gem or other possession. We know how to waste so many thing but the one thing that can't and shouldn't be wasted is time. I have found that keeping a paper as well as an electronic schedule has helped me from becoming overbooked and not overwork myself. And with me working a part time job, going to school part time, working at the church part time, and trying to write all of my papers and keep on track with all the things at the school; its mandatory that I keep up on all of it. Taking notes in class is very helpful for a person and can be very beneficial. I find that not just listening to what the teacher has to say but writing what is being taught helps me to grasp what I need to learn and makes you be a better listener. Taking notes of any subject will allow you to generate meaning for content in the course done exclusively by you. Plagiarism to me is the worst that you could possibly do. I would feel terrible if I had said or done something and it had become world famous and someone else had used it without even acknowledging that it was my work or...

...Organizational change is inevitable, but not always successful. “Up to 84 percent of U.S. firms are involved in a major organizational change, although many are deemed not successful” (Palmer, 2008). Effective leadership is imperative when managing change. Managers must recognize what the pressures are that have prompted the organization to change and adapt their management image to reflect the proper change management initiative. In this paper I will analyze a change management initiative I experienced where external pressures propelled the organization to change. I will argue that management unsuccessfully carried out the change initiative from an images perspective. Finally, I will make recommendations on what management could have done differently to make the change more successful. Before continuing further it is necessary to define the terminology used throughout out the rest of this paper. There are two types of images of managing, “management as control” and “management as shaping.” The former “is associated with a top-down, hierarchical view of managing. Typically, the organization is treated as if it is a machine” (Palmer, 2008). As opposed to the latter where the image is associated with a “participative style of managing in which people are encouraged to be involved in decisions and to help identify how things can be done better” (Palmer, 2008). Most importantly, there are also, “six images of managing change,” they are “six differing images of managing change...

...A Crew Member's View of Arby's, Inc. by Tavis X. Crayk In this paper I will be discussing my current employer, Arby's restaurant chain. I will cover a brief history of the company including its current business enivornment, the management structure, the operational and financial issues that I see as an employee of the company, and finally any potential changes that I see in Arby's future. As the low man on the totem pole of this fast food chain, I believe I have a unique perspective of the company. The goal of this paper is to provide that view to the reader. A subsidiary of Triarc Companies, Inc., Arby's Inc. is a leading global fast-food restaurant chain with more than 3,400 restaurants worldwide. Arby's is seperated in the fast-food industry by its menu, which features roast beef sandwiches. The chain expanded rapidly during the 1970s and 1980s by franchising. In 2014 the Arby's chain celebrated its 50th anniversary, and its corporate website currently boasts over $3 billion in system wide sales. Arby's brand originated from the brainstorm of brothers Leroy and Forrest Raffel. The Raffels operated a food-service equipment business in Youngstown, Ohio, in the early 1960s, and noticed the boom taking place in the fast-food industry. It had been only about ten years since Ray Kroc had purchased the national rights to franchise the McDonald hamburger operation, and Burger King was already jumping into the franchising game using a similar version of the...

...Individual Business Survey November 13, 2011 Individual Business Survey The paper will consist of a major problem in a government organization. A 10-question survey has been created for the employees so that the employer can better understand how the employees feel. Moving along, in the problem statement poor, middle-level management seems to have developed in the organization, which resulted with too many angry employees. Complaints are on the rise and are in need of a resolution quickly. For example, it has been said from employees that they are treated unfairly, misunderstood, belittled, disrespected, and certainly have been devalued as an employee by middle level management. This has gone on far too long, and a resolution must be in placed soon. Upper-management figured they must hire a firm to come in and alleviate the lack of management skills within the organization. The firm will train the managers with enhancement in communication, social, employee relation skills, and so on. This class estimates to last five days including seven hours each day. So therefore, 35 hours of training is involved and should result in improving their management skills in the workplace. The purposed survey addresses the problems that will ultimately lead to a conclusion to enhance the poor management skills in the workplace. It covers how the current employees feel about working at his or her job. It is important for an employer to know how satisfied are their employees...

...Scenario 1 While looking at the Risk Corporation’s case and who is potentially liable we found some issues that may have contributed to damages done to the stockholders. Issues included: Breaking Wisconsin Disclosure Law, Shareholders filed a Derivative Action, and because of certain actions Risk Corp. lost money due to the data breach. There are several relevant laws & principles that pertain to Risk Corporation. The Business Judgement Rule could be used as a defense for Tom Lawless in response to the derivative action. The business judgement rule states that directors and officers are immune from personal liability if their actions are reasonable when made but prove to be detrimental to the corporation. Next, the Duty of Loyalty may have been broken when Lawless didn’t put the corporation's interest ahead of personal interests. This happened when the Risk Corp. didn’t disclose the potential conflict of interests regarding cyber break-ins. The Duty of Care is relevant because the directors and officers have a duty to exercise reasonable care in conducting corporate affairs. And lastly Shareholder litigation is seen here when the shareholders filed a derivative action after the discovery of the data breach and the decline of stock prices of the Risk Corporation. Scenario 2 A shareholder is part owner of a corporation based on the percentage of the corporation's stock the shareholder owns. Shareholders have the right to vote to approve any fundamental corporate changes...
