...Running head: CAREER DEVELOPMENT PLAN PART I - JOB ANALYSIS AND Career Development Plan Part I - Job Analysis and Selection As a result of the current merger, the organization has taken a new direction. With this change, the opportunity to grow and develop a new team had become available. The creation of this team will require a structured development plan and defined processes to follow. Developing a job analysis will require a combination of a summary of task requirements and resource or people, requirements. Defining and documenting the workforce planning system will provide an efficient method to meet the demand on providing qualified resources to fulfill business needs. Part of the process that will be taken into consideration will be the Selection method and what are the advantages and disadvantages to the methods that will be used. These development plans will provide the foundation necessary to identify several key employees to fit the needs of the new team. As part of the creation process of the new team a job analysis will provide the required information to progress in defining what it is we need. The job analysis is a process to identify and determine in detail the particular job duties and requirements and the relative importance of these duties for a given job (hr-guide.com, n.d.). The job analysis will be specific to the new marketing and sales person that will be required in the new team. One of the elements that the job analysis will look into...

...I was walking one day and noticed something about the path had changed. I looked around and saw that a piece of the right side wall had disappeared. Nobody had ever been on the other side of the wall. There had also never been a hole in the wall. I wanted to investigate but I also had to go to school first so I covered up the hole with ivy growing on the 30 foot wall. Then I ran off to school. On my way home from school I went to the hole in the wall and peeked out. It was all darkness except for one tiny light in the distance. I finally gathered up the courage to step out into the darkness. Covering the hole behind me I slowly made my way to the light. It took me what seemed to be ten minutes to get there. The light seemed to be a portal of some kind. I had read about them in stories but never thought they actually existed. Stepping through the portal I covered my eyes the light was so bright. The brightness suddenly disappeared and I was standing in a round circular room with thousands or maybe millions of portals lining the wall. You could look up and as far as the eye could see were portals. There were platforms so I stepped on one and it said to me which way you would like to go. Up I replied. So the platform started to move up, it was getting so high I was starting to get dizzy from the never ending sight of portals. On the other side of the room (if you could even call it that) I saw something that caught my...

...Transmittal letters often accompany reports and inform readers of a report's context. Typically, the letter includes information not found in the report. For example, the letter contains information about the particular project and/or due dates. A Transmittal Letter is a business letter and should be formatted accordingly; that is, you should include the recipient's address, your address, a salutation and closing. Depending on the project, you may also need to include contact information. Always check with your instructor to determine whether or not you should attach a transmittal letter to your report. In Finance, a Letter of Transmittal is a document used by a security holder to accompany certificates surrendered in an exchange or other corporate action. A Letter of Transmittal may also be a distribution list with the recipients of a memo, report or contract. A transmittal letter accompanies a document and explains what the document is, why it should receive the reader's consideration, and what the reader should do with it. A transmittal or cover letter accompanies a larger item, usually a document. The transmittal letter provides the recipient with a specific context in which to place the larger document and simultaneously gives the sender a permanent record of having sent the material. Transmittal letters are usually brief. The first paragraph describes what is being sent and the purpose for sending it. A longer transmittal letter may summarize key elements...

Analogy if you do personnel law: • At will employment – no constitutional protection to continued employment because you have a mere expectation of continued employment • Contract employment – have constitutional protection to continued employment because there is a protected “property interest” at stake Essential rule of zoning and vested rights law: • A zoning ordinance is not a contract between the town and its citizens; a zoning ordinance, including a zoning classification, is subject to repeal or change at the will of the governing body – subject only to “vested rights” of the citizens in the town.

...through the copying of another person’s work and posting it as their own creation, not even having realised that they have breached an ethical code of practice when it comes to somebodies creation. If you don’t already know, copyright is automatic on any original piece of work. It requires no legal registration and is not considered essential for any new work created. An owner of any work, whether it be a song, a writing piece, a poem or piece of art, is automatically considered without copyright registration, as the only person entitled to publish, communicate or alter the work in anyway shape or form. Should another individual wish to use the work, whether for publication, digital media or communication, they must seek permission from the creator in order to use the work. Understanding the new media environment of today is not just a matter of knowing the new technology being introduced, but understanding in how they alter our society through both digital and social media when it comes to copyright laws. So where does that leave our society today, in a culture developed around the principles of sharing, posting and commenting in the social media environment? The mind boggles at how you can control such an environment in cyberspace with copyright laws! Be mindful of what you are posting on social media, as even providing details of who is to be credited for someone’s work or sharing a link to someone’s...

Planning permission for this project was granted in 2007. It took a long time for any type of work to begin on the site, local people feared that the project had been cancelled, but in October 2008 they started construction of a road linking the DCs with the national rail network. ProLogis issued out a statement reassuring the public that everything was fine. Speaking on new rail freight terminal at the Eurohub main development in Corby in 2008 Simon Jenkins, from ProLogis, said: “We remain committed to the development of Eurohub Main, Corby, at which we have recently just completed the first phase of site preparation. The Stanion rail freight terminal was supposed to provide a direct train link to and from the Felixstowe port...

...several different audiences, including undergraduate and graduate students. The organization of this manual is a logic sequence of chapters including both business communication and correspondence. The first part is dedicated to business communication and the second to business correspondence. The special features found in this edition are: 1. Examples of effective letter writing. Studies have shown students studying written business communication can learn as much, if not more, from ineffective examples of written communication as they do from effective examples. 2. Varied application problems in the writing-oriented chapters. The number of problems has been increased. While the majority of problems require the writing of a letter or report, some are designed to give students an opportunity to develop the often overlooked skill of editing. 3. Many new application problems in the non-writingoriented chapters. 4. New topics, such as nonverbal communication language, various types of speeches and presentations. 4 Part 1 BUSINESS CORRESPONDENCE 1. The Business Letter 1.1.
