Whether there in any previous employers to which I would consider returning

No, there is no any previous company to which I would consider returning. I made this decision due to several reasons. The former employers failed to offer me opportunities of growth limiting my chances of achieving professional goals. Although I was exposed to learning opportunities, my duties were very limited. Also, the employers did not offer me the opportunity to work on my personal projects. Second, workload discourages me from returning to previous employers. In the previous two companies, I was unable to cope with the work pressure. The management usually set unrealistic targets, which resulted in stress. Additionally, ...

‘Eliminating discharge delays’ is a quality management project that focuses on reducing patient length of stay and as such improving hospital throughput. The project entails implementation of several strategies that collectively ...

In my research on the topic of Human Trafficking, I have learned the following: that there are an estimated 600,000 – 800,000 people who are trafficked across international borders each year. I have also determined that human trafficking represents a significant criminal underworld, that takes away personal liberties and undermines community and safety.

These observations lead me to ask the following question:

How can human trafficking be prevented or stopped? This question has several plausible answers. For example, according to Chuang, the issue of human trafficking must be considered from the global perspective. More specially, he suggests that while trafficking is made up of a series of ...

Question #1

Follet’s central focus is the aspect of power in an organizational context: collaboration, self-management, and coordination. A critical study of what happens at the 3M show that there is an active application of Follet’s ideas in management. On the aspect of coordination, there seems to be no person who has powers to coordinate others at 3M. Rather, part of the coordination is left for the employees to perform tasks themselves. At 3M, employees are given an opportunity to take charge of their own actions by being allocated 15% of the time to direct themselves. There is evidence ...

Economists tend to relate to the subject of research with scientific objectivity (Mankiw, 2015). They develop theories, accumulate evidence and then analyse them in an attempt to prove or disprove the theoretical concepts. The main tools of the economist (and other scientists) are theory and observation, but, in contrast to the natural sciences, in economics it is almost impossible to set up an experiment to confirm or deny a new concept. In order to somehow compensate for the absence of the possibility of carrying out laboratory experiments, economists are paying close attention to natural experiments offered by life. An ...

The bullwhip effect can be detrimental to the efficiency of a supply chain. Demand of a product may only slightly shift, but it can lead to a much greater shift in manufacturing a product. This is when the “variability in demand is magnified as we move from the customer to the producer in the supply chain” (Robert & Chase). It specifically relates to a lack of coordination in a supply chain as a company makes purchases from its suppliers more unpredictably than it sells to its customer (Mendelson & Bray, 2016).

Gap in Care Quality during the Discharge Process for Care Coordination for Patients with Chronic Illnesses

Patients in the United States who experience long-term illnesses may change from one health care setting to another.

Organization design, HR and line manager roles and responsibilities and high-performance work systems (HPWS)

Organisation design denotes how an organisation is structured, including the coordination of activities. It reflects how individual activities are coordinated under leadership towards the achievement of organisation goals. One important lesson I learnt is that organisations are not static hence organisational reviews are important to evaluate the organisation design. The organisation design defines the clarity of the overall objectives of the organisation, the key activities required to achieve the goals, coordination of the activities, clarity of individual roles, among other aspects. HR managers have the responsibility of establishing HR policies while line managers execute the HR practices and supervise ...

Hamas movement has been perceived over the years as an Islamist extremist terrorist movement. This perception has been informed by the mission behind the formation of the movement which is in a nutshell, the obliteration of Israel and the ultimate establishment of a Palestinian state. Besides, the perception derives justification from the religious ideologies such as fundamentalism and radicalization often associated with Islamism and adopted by the Hamas in addition to several terrorist activities that have been carried out by the movement (Pettersen, 2009). However, this paper seeks to portray the Hamas as a movement in pursuit of self-determination ...

Abstract

Over the past years, the criminal justice system has experienced both praises and criticism involving the manner in which various officers enforce law and order. While most officers strive to ensure sanctity and order prevail among all equals, a section of the officers overlook the art of humanity and apply undue force to innocent and suspected individuals. Unfortunately, the blanket of corruption shields the officers from prosecution in the effort to safeguard the exposition of the inner affairs of the police culture. Corruption broils police brutality and individual victimization with unwarranted allegations as a weapon to silence their sufferings. ...
