...Maintrel Case Study ....., 310733 September 9th, 2013 COMM 1006 A. Davey Executive Summary The engineering department at Maintrel has serious problems that need to be dealt with. These problems all revolve around Jack Manning and his poor leadership behaviors. These poor leadership behaviours have led to one of the best employees (Mark Rogers) handing in his papers of recognition, an inexperienced engineering designer staff, a project which has been done very poorly and some employees who seem unmotivated (Bert Phillips), Mark being left out from group meetings, and a promotion which should have been given to Mark. The only ways to fix these major problems/issues are for Jack to exhibit better leadership, and to gain respect from his employees. Jack must improve his decision making, influencing, building relationships and giving-seeking information with his employees (theory from the taxonomy of leadership behaviours). To do this I found there to be only be one method that can solve all the sub-issues. My other alternatives, although viable have multiple more cons then pros, and that is why the alternative I chose will produce the best results. Jack would have to convince Mark to stay by promoting him to a new supervisory position, as well as building a relationship between him and Bert to utilize both of their ideas to fix the Calgary project. He must also control assign weekly mandatory meetings informing employees of what is happening throughout the week, and leaving...

...Vicente Zarate Professor Foster English 100 November 21, 2013 “Desalination of Seawater” Water is extremely essential to every human in this world. The scarcity of water has increased in the past decades due to the overpopulation of humans. Today, we found ourselves in a critical stage where most people have not realized the consequences for the future generations. The government is investing economic resources to find innovative methods to produce fresh water. The process that removes salt from sea waters is the desalination of sea waters to breed freshwater. This process of converting seawater to clean water has caused an answer too many countries. Countries from the Middle East where there is a massive crisis of clean water, they are recurring to this cost-effective process to the solution of the water crisis. Humans cannot drink salty water, but saline water can be made into freshwater, which people need every day to live. The process is called desalination, and as the lack of fresh water grow more countries will use it to provide drinking water. Fresh water will be in short supply in some part of the United States and the world. As the population continues to grow, the lack of fresh water will appear more frequently. In many desert regions of the world including United States, the drought of fresh water resources has been critical, and it will be increasingly influential in the future.

In the capital of France, the confluence of wealth and felicity of advanced life, hardly have people expected or predicted terror attack. The sudden attack from ISIS brought numerous inconceivable repercussion. Not only only estimably had ISIS kill 129 people and injured 290 people but also leave people’s fear and place the seed of revenge and hate to Muslims in people’s minds.

...Searle declares that they are the basic components of speech acts. They actually play a vital role in carrying out the intended action. Searle classifies felicity conditions according to four levels: propositional content, preparatory condition, sincerity condition, and essential condition. Firstly, the propositional content focuses mainly on the real goal of the utterance. For instance, a promise requires the speaker to do a certain action in the future. Secondly, the preparatory condition is chiefly concerned with the circumstances that make the utterance come true. For example, in a promise the hearer believes that the promise will be carried out and the speaker is well aware of this fact. Thirdly, sincerity condition as in a promise means that the speaker is really going to carry it out. Finally, the essential condition is concerned with the intention of the speaker as in a promise the...

...To Whom It May Concern: This is a formal complaint of our experience with the RIU Palace Paradise Island. We checked into the RIU Palace Paradise Island on Thursday, December 10th, 2009 at approximately 3:00 PM. Upon check-in we were greeted by Front Desk staff member, Felicity, where she assigned us RM 804. Before we got into the elevator to go to our room, she stopped us and said she needed to change our room. After a few minutes we were then changed to RM 1202. Upon arrival to the room we were greeted by construction workers who were making repairs to the room, we also found another guest’s belongings residing in the room. While in transit back to the front desk, we were met by Felicity again, who said she changed our room to RM 817, and handed us another set of keys. When we reached to the 8th floor, we were greeted by a plethora of construction workers on the floor, in which we had to maneuver our way through and around them to get to our room.
