...NEGOTIATION CASE CRISTIANO v/s REAL MADRID FC Module: Negotiation 1 (7FFLA572) Candidate number: P07352 Words: 5756 CRISTIANO v/s REAL MADRID FC Confidential Instructions for Ricardo Kaka, Agent for Cristiano You are the founder of one the biggest professional sports agencies in the world. You grew up in the back streets of Porto, Portugal and through hard work made it to Harvard Law School, where you specialized in sports law. While studying at Harvard you became extensively involved in the Harvard Negotiation Project thereby excelling at conflict resolution and negotiation. Armed with this knowledge you went back and applied it where it truly interested you-football. With determination and relentless resolve you became a much sought after football agent. In fact the media started labeling you and some others as ‘super-agents’ because of your ability to find raw talent from South America and Portugal and get them to the promise land (‘big clubs’ and ‘big bucks’). In 2009 your attention was brought to Cristiano, a truly world-class football player from Brazil with enormous potential. Using your connections, ability to speak the language and the fact that Cristiano, like you hailed from a modest background you signed him as a client. From a young age Cristiano has been playing football at the highest level, hence you engineered one of your greatest moves, which saw him transfer from his local Brazilian league to the big leagues of Europe. Success has followed...

The social system of the school comprising staff, students as well as the Community of parents at large, looks up to the Rector for leadership and an inclusive atmosphere. While the School Development Plan is available in all institutions as an indication of the direction to follow, the Rector needs support and resources to make critical decisions on a day-to-day basis. These decisions may well relate to pedagogical matters as much as to disciplinary cases. Nevertheless, it is also vital to understand that a Head of School cannot do it alone. He/ She will have to resort to some delegation of responsibility and especially know when and how to do it...

...Introduction This article analyzes and assesses the current status of living-standards in South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation (SAARC) countries and examines emerging trends. The discussion concentrates on access, labor law, wage rate of workers, private enterprise, and future prospects of living-standards of workers in each country. Seven South Asian countries Bangladesh, Bhutan, India, Maldives, Nepal, Pakistan, and Sri Lanka—launched the economic and political organization SAARC on 8 December 1985. Afghanistan joined it in April 2007. SAARC provides a platform for working together in a spirit of friendship, trust, and understanding to accelerate economic and social development, including education, in South Asian countries. Human resource development is one of five areas of cooperation agreed on by the member countries. In terms of population, the SAARC region covers nearly 1,500 million people, one of the largest such regional organizations. SAARC countries share certain common social and economic problems, including those related comparison between wage rate and living-standards of workers. Raising wages: an urgent imperative A wage that's enough to meet basic needs and to provide some discretionary income - what's not to like? In the past decade, retailers and brands have made some progress in getting their suppliers to pay their workers their statutory entitlements - in other words, the prevailing minimum wage plus any pension contributions, sickness...

...Industrial relations is a post-industrial revolution term that replaced the expression "master-servant" used to define the relationship between a worker and an employer. Contemporary industrial relations still refers to the employment relationship and the business unit that manages the employment relations, personnel or human resources. It often includes labor unions as parties to that relationship. The main objective of industrial relations is to improve the economic conditions of workers in the current economic climate. The value added outcomes that can result from good industrial relations include improved morale and commitment, fewer grievances, productivity increases, and better control of labour costs. (Waiganjo, 2012) However there are three theories on how this can be obtained: unitarism, pluralist and radical perspectives. Each of these perspectives takes a different approach to the workplace and the roles of the parties involved; but not all will be effective in today’s evolving labour market. If you want to make peace with your enemy, you have to work With your enemy. Then he becomes your partner. - Nelson Mandela The unitarist approach to industrial relations is one of mutual benefit; the management and other members of staff are presumed to share a common purpose emphasizing mutual cooperation. (Waiganjo, 2012) This approach to working relationship promotes the virtues of teamwork, where everyone strives to reach a common objective. Many Canadians take...

Riguer The views expressed in this paper are those of the authors and do not reflect the opinion of the Institute for Labor Studies and the Department of Labor and Employment. Abstract This paper examines the readiness of Philippines for worker mobility within the region of Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN). It focuses on the implications of the impending establishment of the ASEAN Economic Community by 2015 as specifically governed by rules and regional commitments on free flow services, mutual recognition of qualifications and skills, movement of natural persons, and movement of skilled labor. 1 I.

...Global Financial Crisis Impact and Challenges Shaikh Faisal. Assistant Professor Dr. Rafiq Zakaria Campus Millennium Institute of Management Aurangabad Introduction: The global financial system has undergone a period of unprecedented turmoil. Market confidence dwindled and has remained fragile, leading to the collapse or near-collapse of large, and in some cases systemically important, financial institutions, and calling forth public intervention in the financial system on a scale not seen for decades. The financial system has been severely weakened by mounting losses on impaired and illiquid assets, uncertainty regarding the availability and cost of funding, and further deterioration of loan portfolios as global economic growth slows. Finding a purely private sector resolution of financial market strains has become increasingly difficult, while case-by-case intervention by authorities has not alleviated market concerns. In response, more comprehensive approaches are now being considered or implemented to bring about a more orderly process of deleveraging and to break the adverse feedback loop between the financial system and the global economy. Such a comprehensive approach—if well coordinated among countries—should be sufficient to restore confidence and the proper functioning of markets and avert a more protracted downturn in the global economy. Significant writedowns have already been realized, but more may lie ahead. . . The estimate of aggregate write downs...

...Political Science Quarterly, Spring 2001 v116 i1 p81 The Cuban Missile Crisis and the Limits of Crisis Management. RICHARD M. PIOUS. Full Text: COPYRIGHT 2001 Academy of Political Science Nowhere do the constitutional prerogatives of the president seem greater than in the midst of national security crises; nowhere do we invest in the president greater resources of command. Although in the past half century presidents have surrounded themselves with a vast national security apparatus, consisting of intelligence agencies and the National Security Council, it is not at all clear that presidents have been effective as crisis managers. They often lack crucial information, use incomplete or misleading analogies to understand crisis situations, find it difficult to micromanage events, and are unable to project force effectively. Even when they are successful, it is often in spite of, rather than because of, the resources of the institutionalized presidency at their disposal. The Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 provides a case study of how John F. Kennedy and Nikita Khrushchev almost blundered into a nuclear war through the crisis management approaches of their advisory systems, but then managed to extricate themselves using personal diplomacy and old-fashioned political horsetrading. They did so without revealing to the world how they had defused the crisis, a decision to maintain confidentiality with far reaching consequences for subsequent presidential crisis decision making...

...INTRODUCTION The United States Steel Corporation more commonly known as U.S. Steel is an integrated steel producer with major production operations in the United States, Canada, and Central Europe. The company was the world's 13th largest steel producer in 2010. It was renamed USX Corporation in 1986 and back to United States Steel Corporation in 2001 when the shareholders of USX spun off the oil & gas business of Marathon Oil and the steel business of U. S. Steel to shareholders. In 2001 it was still the largest domestically owned integrated steel producer in the United States, although it produced only slightly more steel than it did in 1902, after significant downsizing in the 1980s. U.S. Steel is a former Dow Jones Industrial Average component, listed from April 1, 1901 to May 3, 1991. It was removed under its USX Corporation name with Navistar International and Primerica. Formation J. P. Morgan and the attorney Elbert H. Gary founded U.S. Steel in 1901 (incorporated on February 25) by combining Andrew Carnegie's Carnegie Steel Company with Gary's Federal Steel Company and William Henry "Judge" Moore's National Steel Company for $492 million ($13.58 billion today). It was capitalized at $1.4 billion ($38.63 billion today), making it the world's first billion-dollar corporation. At one time, U.S. Steel was the largest steel producer and largest corporation in the world. In 1907 it bought its largest competitor, the Tennessee Coal, Iron and Railroad Company, which...
