...General Patton was an admirer of the M1 Garand (the greatest implement ever devised, he call it). The M35 2½ was what was needed to move those vast supplies when and where necessary. On the other hand, the M4 Sherman (in most of its variants, except for the British Firefly and quite possibly the Easy-Eights) was vastly inferior in combat capabilities when compared to most other medium tanks, and definitely all heavies. The M10 3-inch GMC, and the far better 76mm armed M18 Hellcat were fine vehicles but suffered heavily from the US Army Tank/Tank Destroyer doctrine, where only Tank Destroyers could engage tanks while tanks should avoid tank to tank combat, usually leading to disastrous consequences since the Germans failed to follow said doctrine. All this nonsense was finally scrapped and the M26 came to be. So, let's head to the T34. Revolutionary is an understatement when applied to this magnificent piece of Soviet engineering (hold your shots, Christie fans!). Just to mention some of its characteristics we could say that it was fast, well armed, well protected, reliable, simple, sturdy, easy to build, easier to maintain, sporting an amazing ground pressure ratio, easy to man by crudely trained Siberian draftees, economical, and to top it all handsome as hell. The first tank to have an all-aluminium diesel engine, which made it far less prone to burning at the first strike that the M4 Medium, Ronson, and provide a fantastic power to weight ratio (some 16 HP per tone in the...

Turn your clicker to channel 25 Switching from a push to a pull system will generally Increase the process capacity Increase the flow rate of the process Decrease the average flow time of the flow units Increase the utilization of some of the resources 4 2 Batch process A batch process is a process which produces multiple types of flow units in successive groups, or batches This applies mostly to manufacturing make to stock processes manufacturing, make-to-stock The equipment is usually highly flexible but often requires setups when switching production from type of flow unit to another E.g. Shirts of different sizes and/or colors A (production) batch is a set of production units that are (p ) p processed before the resource needs to go through another setup 5 Definitions Definition 1: Setups are down times, i.e. times during which no flow units can be worked on by the resource because the machine is being set up Definition 2 (more general) : Setups are activities for which the duration is independent of the number of flow units 6 3 Back to Kristen’s Cookies Co.

...today decisions that we take in the company. Profit sharing: The employees determine the profit share that they should get and also decide how to split it. It creates the feeling of ownership, says semler. Employees enjoy 25 % of company’s total profit. It directly affects their efficiency. The way of working is different by the employees when they have a sense of ownership. Profit sharing give them a reason to do things better. They work more sincerely and with more effort. In this way employees themselves can decide that what they will get at the end of the year. Free flow of information: Each piece of information is available to everybody. Nothing is kept as secret. Every employee is trained how to read a balance sheet, how different units in the organization works. Information tells people what’s working in the organization and what’s not. Everybody in company have access to the company’s books. Only one set of books wa there which was open for inspection and audit.

...New Health Medical Systems Shari Gifford HRM/548 Jennifer Familant March 10, 2014 New Health Medical Systems TO: New Health Medical Systems, Board of Directors FROM: Shari Gifford, HR Consultant CC: Jennifer Familant DATE: March 10, 2014 SUBJECT: Staffing Strategy It is my understanding that you, the Board of Directors of New Health Medical Systems, recently announced a new strategic direction to become a regional center for critically ill patients. As a part of that strategy, New Health Medical Systems (NHMS) has opened a new cardiovascular unit where patients can receive care for heart attacks, strokes, and other types of cardiovascular diseases. NHMS was quickly able to recruit a quality physician to head the unit as well as additional professional staff, however finding qualified technicians have become much more difficult than originally anticipated. The problem does not seem to be so much in terms of the position being attractive to candidates, but rather a lack of skilled technicians in the immediate region. Most of the skilled technicians are already employed, and are not actively seeking jobs with other organizations. In order to fill the 35 technician positions, the director of staffing has created a new staffing strategy that includes the following: 1. Place advertisement in the local newspapers 2. Contact staffing agencies that specializes in placing technicians into health care facilities 3. Organize a job fair and invite local...

...What is effective management? This will be one dimension that you will have to reflect on throughout the unit – some questions that might arise is there such a thing as ‘one best way’ of being effective? Does being effective require a set of skills, or is it more about being adaptable and flexible? Is it more effective to think of management as the sole locus of the manager, or as a group or ever organizational dynamic? Gender Equality/Balance – were more women just not choosing promotions? More complex than that – See Acker article on Moodle to help start thinking through these ideas! Administrative Management The influence on the workplace of the KIPPER phenomenon The KIPPER phenomenon is just one example of a social dynamic that can have an influence on the workplace (e.g. people having to stay in work longer and retire later in order to financial support adult children). At a more general level it highlights how different social or cultural trends always have an influence or organizational life. Definitions are always difficult I agree – and there are lots of definitions! A good place to start is think about the academic definition given to a term in a text book or, better still, an academic paper, and then think how this might translate into an organizational setting. The framework for the unit Broadly speaking, the unit starts off at an individual level and them moves towards ideas which are more group-based, then more organizational based. However, this...
