...Business History Ýn The United States At The End Of The Twentieth Century The History of Business history Business history in the united states at the end of the twentieth century and the beginning of the twenty-first is simultaneously thriving and strungling with itsidentity.There are clear signs of vigor, including a rising membership in the major professional organization in the field, BHC (Business History Conference). The organization recently launched a new quarterly professional journals; • Enterprise & Society • Economic and Business Historical Society. There are also some signs of stress, including a growing debate among business historians over the future direction of the field. Business history has grown tremendously in recent years, not only in terms of the number of scholar interested in the subject but also in academic structure Alfred D. Chandler has dominated the field over the past several decades.But, business history, of course, is more than Chandler. But thought business historians are doing exciting new work, there is no consensus about which way the field should be headed in the twenty-first century. The Economic History Association (EHA) lists 1,242 members, over twice the membership of the BHC. To examine the state of business history in the United States at the end of the twentieth century, we must get down to basics and ask a few questions about business history.These are; • Where have we come from? • What are its practitioners...

...“Vision without action is merely a dream. Action without vision just passes the time. Vision with action can change the world!” I have always been fascinated by the application of technology for the betterment of our lives. Shaping it into a reality requires skills and combined knowledge of engineering as well as management. Hence I believe that technology in combination with management is what it takes for a vision to excel. I believe engineering management will define a way to my dreams and goal of a career of being an entrepreneur in the field of technology back in my country where the use of technology for betterment is not at its maximum. Surrounding of a child plays a very important role in carving the interest of a child. In my early school days I used to listen to audio cassettes played in a stereo tape recorder. Having understood the difference between Mono & Stereo recording, I tried my hands on converting two cassettes of Stereo recordings into one cassette of Mono recording by using LEFT & RIGHT channels as a separate channel. Various such experiments in my childhood inclined me towards technical things. Consistent good scores in science and mathematics along with the curious and analytical aptitude, I chose science as my higher school studies. The reason for opting electronics and telecommunication as undergraduate studies is its vast interdisciplinary course outline. It gave me exposure to different subjects like digital signal processing, integrated...

...Resistance to Change John Caudill Webster University MNGT 5590 Dr. Kevin Henson Abstract The topic I researched was organizational change. My search criteria were limited to ABI/Inform, for peer-reviewed, full text documents, and scholarly journals. I didn’t have a specific time frame. However, most of the articles are within the last 5 years. Some of the search keywords used was organizational change, organizational behavior, and resistance to change. The results of the article analysis found that organizational change is a very complex process. Leaders, managers, change managers and employees have a lot of factors to consider and find solutions for in order for a change to be successful. Some of the common reasons that caused changes to fail are; employee’s attitudes, lack of employee empowerment, forcing employees to change the status quo, employees felt threatened by the change, perceived loss of jobs, new boss, new responsibilities, employees don’t understand the intent of the change, change doesn’t make sense, past experiences and group dynamics play a part. Resistance can be overt or covert. The differences in value congruence and organizational culture of small working groups, the individual and the organization as a whole must also be considered. In order for the change to be a success the leaders must study, analyze, and develop the plan around these conditions. The plan has to be well thought out, the intent and goals understood by the employees...

...1 Cron, Carol OMDE 601 9040 Assignment #3 Due November 27, 2010 Classification of Six Institutions into Five Generations of Technology of Distance Education Introduction Study Group 3 (SG3) in OMDE 601 collaboratively researched five generations of technology in distance education (DE) and classified one institution into one of the generations. The scope of this subsequent, individual assignment is to select six institutions from around the world – divided evenly between Europe, America and Asia. This assignment will build on SG3’s selection of the Open University (OU) in the United Kingdom, with five additional DE institutions classified into the five generations of technology. The classification will be based on the six characteristics of DE institutions selected by SG3, to determine whether the characteristics selected were effective. The characteristics selected were audience, modes for delivery, communication or interactive media, types of technology used, affordability, and breadth of course offerings. The following sections are broken down by the five generations, with six DE institutions classified into the five generations. First Generation: Correspondence/Home Study/Independent Study The University of South Africa is the world’s oldest DE institution, and prior to 1970 was the only institution that was autonomous in structure. In 1955 there were about 5,500 students enrolled, but today there are more than 130,000. The...

...Leading the School Cynthia Cole EDU 7820 Principles of Educational Administration 7875 Amethyst Drive Pensacola, Fl 32506 850-449-0975 cynthiacole1@bellsouth.net Instructor: Dr. Ted Ray Effective school leaders should ensure that vision, mission, and goals encompass awareness of school culture, instruction, organizational management, group process and consensus building, learning resources, school law and politics, and ethics. School leaders play a significant role in school culture. Organizations with a positive culture have cohesiveness and responsibility towards maintaining embedded attitudes, beliefs, and behaviors (Ali, Brownson, Kahlert, & Sobel, 2002). It is important for leaders to create cultures that have values, equity, and high expectations. Effective leaders accomplish positive cultures with the use of appropriate dialogue, actions, and symbolic gestures. The overall goal of positive school culture is effective student learning and achievement. Therefore, school leaders must establish a culture that meets the needs of diverse student populations and challenges of accountability-driven education systems. This also involves effective collaborative instruction that is designed to maintain a focus on improving student learning. School leaders are required to ensure that students are meeting performance standards in a collaborative process. The research in this paper offers several suggestions for school leaders to facilitate...

Introduction Management theories have evolved over a number of centuries. According to (Koontz and Weihrich 1990, p 4), management is the process of designing and maintaining an environment in which individuals, working together in groups, efficiently accomplish selected aims. Theories are perspectives with which people make sense of their world experiences (Stoner et.al 1995, p 31-32). Theory is a systematic grouping of interdependent concepts and principles that give a significant area of knowledge. Theory is in its lowest form a classification, a set of pigeon holes, a filing cabinet in which fact can accumulate. Nothing is more lost than a loose fact, (Homans 1958, p 5). Management theories are the set of general rules that guide the managers to manage an organization. Management theories are implemented to help increase...

This can result ina system with well-integrated processes that can perform much faster and more accuratethan a manual system.Enrollment is the process of entering and verifying data of student to register on aparticular school. Different interrelated processes build up enrollment procedures calledEnrollment System (ES). ES are used particularly in recording and retrieving studentsinformation. Tracking students information is also one feature of ES, in which the schoolcan trace the standing of a student. Verifying payments was also added to update or browsestudents billings.Enrollment System is a good example of a computer generated process. This canlessen the workload and provides accurate information needed of the school.

...picture; it is data with relevance and purpose. It may convey a trend in the environment, or perhaps indicate a pattern of sales for a given period of time. Data, information and knowledge can all be viewed as assets of organizations. Many organizations realize they own a huge amount of knowledge and that this knowledge needs to be managed in order to be useful. There are two types of knowledge: namely explicit and tacit knowledge (Nonaka & Takeuchi, 1995). Tacit knowledge was originally defined by Polanyi in 1966. It is sometimes referred to as know-how (Brown & Duguid, 1998) and refers to intuitive, hard to define knowledge that is largely experience based. Tacit knowledge tends to reside within the head of the knowers, whereas explicit knowledge is formalized and codified, and is sometimes referred to as know-what (Brown & Duguid, 1998). It is therefore fairly easy to identify, store and retrieve (Wellman 2009). This type of knowledge most easily handled by Knowledge Management System, which are very effective at facilitating the storage, retrieval, and modification of documents and texts. Knowledge management develops system and processes to acquire and...

Particularly in some schools, library transactions are still done on paper. We all know that modern school libraries are operating at great pace striving to serve as many students as possible with the best of their abilities. But as the years rolled by, the number of study has grown and the manual method of managing student and book records is no longer practical. A Library Management System is a system that makes use of information technology to perform managerial objects. The main goal of a library management information system is to store, organize, share and retrieve vital information needed to perform daily operational functions of the library. St. Matthew Academy of Cavite does not have one. Since library has a very large number of books and large number of members, it is impossible for librarians to handle day to day activities manually.

... 400 COURSE TITLE: MANAGEMENT THEORY COURSE CODE: BUS 413 ASSIGNMENT: Write about the Classical school of thought in Management in 2 pages. DATE: 26th of March 2014. CLASSICAL SCHOOL OF THOUGHT IN MANAGEMENT The classical school is the oldest formal school of management thought. Its roots predate the twentieth century. The classical school of thought generally concerns ways to manage work and organisations efficiently. Three areas of study that can be grouped under the classical school are scientific management, administrative management and bureaucratic management. The classical school (of management) has sought to define the essence of management in the form of universal fundamental functions. These, it was hoped, would form the cognitive basis for a set of relevant skills to be acquired, by all would-be managers through formal education. The classical school’s management thought was based on the belief that employees have only economical and physical needs, and that social needs and need for job satisfaction either don’t exist or are unimportant. Accordingly, this school advocates high specialization of labour, centralized decision-making and profit maximization. Weaknesses of the Classical Management Theories. Classical theories and the...
