...marketing assistant for a consumer electronics company and are in charge of setting up your company’s booth at trade shows. Weeks before a show, you meet with the marketing managers and determine what displays and equipment they want to display. Then, you identify each of the components that need to be shipped and schedule a shipper to deliver them to the trade show site. You then supervise trade show personnel as they set up the booths and equipment. After the show, you supervise packing the booth and all the equipment as well as schedule its shipment back to your home office.

...consumer demand for the keg beer, resulting in customer dissatisfaction. Use open systems theory to explain what occurred at Napanee Beer Co. Begin with a brief description of open systems theory. Use your own words (paraphrase) and remember to cite all sources using APA style. Open systems theory is a theory that states that organizations take resources from the environment and use those resources to affect that same environment through the organizations output (McShane & Steen, 2009). In regards to the case of Napanee Beer Co., the marketing group did not inform the production department that there was a new marketing campaign, therefore, they were not prepared to produce higher priced specialty beer for the high demand. This relates back to the organizational efficiency, where the amount of output is directly related to the number of inputs (McShane & Steen, 2009). Inputs are basically raw materials, human resources, information, financial resources, and equipment. The input that was lacking in...

Jack Nelson's Problem By maudalene | March 2011 * Zoom In * Zoom Out Page 1 of 6 Assignment 1: Case Study, Jack Nelson’s Problem 1. a) What do you think is causing some of the problems in the bank’s home office? 1. Ruth Johnson who has been working at the bank’s head office for last two months did not know what the machine she is using is called or what is does. That shows that the bank did not give her sufficient training to familiarize herself with the name and the function of the machine. However, she did know how the machine works, but this doesn’t mean that she has been trained properly. A huge problem in the bank’s home office is the lack of a proper Training program. It can be an in-house training program especially designed for the new employees at the bank or a practical on-the-job training program. This will give new employees the change to practice, observe others, ask questions, learn from mistakes and familiarize themselves with the equipment that they are using. It is very important for the bank to utilize its available resources. In this case the supervisor could have given her proper, on-the-job training and informed and familiarized her with the name and function of the machine that she operates. 2. There is also mayor lack of communication in the bank’s home office. Ruth has been working there for almost two months and nobody has briefed...

...Walter Charbonneau, manager of the university registrar’s office. Heather was surprised to learn from Glen that Walter had just bought a new piece of equipment for his department without following standard university purchasing policies. Glen asked Heather to look into the situation and get back to him with recommendation. Purchasing Department Southeastern University was one of the largest universities in the state, with total enrolment of more than 25,000 graduate and undergraduate students and approximately 3,500 staff. There were 12 faculties at the university, over 20 continuing education diploma and certificate programs and three affiliated colleges. Purchasing was centralized, and the purchasing director, Blake Hyatt, reported to the university’s vice president of administration. The purchasing department was responsible for negotiating with suppliers, signing contracts with suppliers, and supervising the execution of contracts. Small-value purchases those less than $100 could be handled out of petty cash. The purchase department had also recently introduced a purchasing card, which could be used to acquire legible goods and services with a value of less than $1000. The purchasing process began when a purchase request was submitted to the purchasing department. A clerk would stamp the requisition with the date and time received and checked it for proper signing authority. In some cases, it was necessary to forward the requisition to the research...
