...1. How to define its industry? A：There are 4 approaches to define Segway’s industry. Descriptions are as follow： * Input/Output based The primary tool used within this approach is the SIC code. Four digit SIC codes are the common method and widely used and understood. SIC codes provide sub-classifications up to 7 digits. * NAICS Codes for Segway： NAICS Codes | Name | Classification Level | 31-33 | Manufacturing | Sector | 335 | Electrical Equipment, Appliance, and Component Manufacturing | Subsector | 3353 | Electrical Equipment Manufacturing | Industry Group | 33531 | Electrical Equipment Manufacturing | Industry | 335312 | Motor and Generator Manufacturing | U.S. Detail Industry | * Strengths： provides an inexpensive, accessible and widely used pool of comparable data. * Limitations： SIC codes focus on the primary activity of organization, it becomes difficult to determine the classification of multi-product organizations. Defining one industry by only primary activity may lead to an incomplete definition. * Customer/Market based Using “Strategic Market Segmentation”, industry participants are defined as those that serve the same market segment. This segment is defined by using the parameters of end-use, geographic location, product technology, customer size and common buying factors. * Strengths： This closeness between customers & business may provide organizations a consistency with changes in customer trends. * Limitations： ...

...Dr. Thomas A Harris MD I'm OK, You're OK Transactional Analysis FSCJ Management Theory and Practices MAN 3353 Professor Joe Perry Dr. Thomas A Harris MD I'm OK, You're OK Transactional Analysis Thomas Harris began learning the theories of Transactional Analysis around 1960 directly from the creator of Transactional Analysis, Dr. Eric Berne MD. Harris observed the runaway success Dr. Berne achieved with Games People Play in 1964. Despite the numerous literary accomplishments of Games, Harris felt that he could simplify Berne’s theories even more and make them more accessible to a wider audience. My interest in the subject emanated from a course in interviewing skills and effective communications that I enrolled in at Northern Virginia Community college years ago. According to his biography, Harris began writing the book in 1967. Using Transactional Analysis as a foundation for his book, he developed four possible life positions. • I’m not OK – You’re OK • I’m OK – You’re not OK • I'm not OK, You're not OK and • I'm OK, You're OK Dr. Harris selected I'm OK, You're OK for the title because it is the position one should strive to achieve. I have found that the reaction of people to a management problem is difficult to anticipate. However, we can predict the kind of responses our interventions may evoke from people. I found that a reasonable answer can be found with the help of transactional analysis. When people interact in assertive or non-assertive...

...CASE PROBLEM: HAMILTON COUNTY JUDGES Hamilton County Judges try thousands of cases per year. In an overwhelming majority of the cases disposed, the verdict stands as rendered. However, some cases are appealed, and of those appealed, some of the cases are reversed. Kristen DelGuzzi of the Cincinnati Enquirer conducted a study of cases handled by Hamilton County Judges over a three-year period ( Cincinnati Enquirer, January 11, 1998 ). Shown in Table 2.5 are the results for 182,908 cases handled (disposed) by 38 Judges in Common Pleas Court, Domestic relations Court, and Municipal Court. Two of the judges (Dinkelacker and Hogan) did not serve in the same court for the entire three-year period. The purpose of the newspaper’s study was to evaluate the performance of the judges. Appeals are often the result of mistakes made by judges, and the newspaper wanted to know which judges were doing a good job and which were making too many mistakes. You have been called in to assist in the data analysis. Use your knowledge of probability to help with the ranking of the judges. You also may e able to analyze…..

...The Four Principal Functions of Management: Planning, Organizing, Leading, and Controlling Matthew Daley 24 September 2011 MAN 3353 Tristan L. Davison Abstract All new or old organizations whether small or big need to run smoothly and achieve the goals and objectives. Organizations can develop and implement their own management concepts. Basically, there are only four management principles that would allow any organization to control the tactically planned and set decisions. The four principles of management are used, just to have a controlled plan over the preventive measure. These four principal functions of management are: planning, organizing, leading, and controlling. What is normatively held as good management practice for a non-diversified firm? * Process of organizing * Functional organization * More centralized decision-making * Specialist viewpoint at the top * Less formalization of structure required * Less coordination and committee management * Process of planning * Simple long range planning, * High involvement of top management in planning * Less participative, * Heavily linked with the control function * Process of controlling * Concentrated at the top * More detailed at the top * Less use of exception principles * Organization of control centralized What is normatively held as good management practice for a diversified firm? * Process of organizing ...

Ear; September 16, 2007 Data Analysis of Hamilton County Judges Probabilities used to assist with Ranking of Hamilton County Judges After the current statistics were gathered to produce data analysis regarding Hamilton County Judges, we can come to a conclusion and rank judges appropriately by their probability to be appealed, reversed and a combination of the both. With the provided data analysis, I have included statistics to all probabilities including: total cases disposed, appealed cases, reversed cases, probability of appeal, rank by probability of appeal, probability of reversal, rank by probability of reversal, conditional probability of reversal given appeal, rank by conditional probability of reversal given appeal and overall sum of ranks. The judges that rank the highest (i.e. 1st, 2nd, 3rd) have the lowest probability to have appealed cases, reversed cases and lowest conditional probability of reversed cases given appeal. In my opinion, by ranking the judges as such, we can see how often their ruling is upheld, which is ultimately desirable when concerning the credibility of a judge. I have provided rankings for all three different courts including: Common Pleas Court, Domestic Relations Court and Municipal Court. These overall rankings are gathered by summing up all of the rankings by the three probability variables. I have also provided data analysis which interprets who...

...A transformation of marketing is underway as we spend more time on our mobiles, tablets and laptops. The challenge for brands is to connect with customers through all these devices in real time and create campaigns that work across social media, display advertising and e-commerce. The real-time conversations brands have with people as they interact with websites and mobile apps has changed the nature of marketing. The modern-day marketing department needs to combine the creative side of the discipline – using powerful narratives to tap into people’s wishes and aspirations – with the technical side of data, digital engineering and analytics. The two areas do not always sit easily together. Getting creative marketers to work alongside technical staff can be a huge challenge. To explore these issues, the Guardian, in association with software firm Adobe, invited a panel of five top marketers and digital chiefs to discuss the matter before an audience of about 50 marketing and digital professionals. The question they addressed was: “What does the merging of technology and marketing mean for marketers?” The panel examined the challenges of bringing together these two distinct worlds. Marketing is concerned with understanding people’s motivations and using these insights to create campaigns that promote brands and encourage people to buy their products. It is a creative and often intuitive process. The technology used to achieve this, however, requires skills in mathematics...

...Dimensions of Latino Experience In the United States there are foreign and domestic born Latino groups. The Latino population is growing at a high rate in the United States. There are eight different Latino groups, which are Mexican, Puerto Rican, Dominican, Colombian, Ecuadorian Salvadoran Peruvian and Guatemalan. In regards to the literature review on Latino experience I have gathered in the semester is that. Puerto Ricans historically have been the 2nd largest Latino population in the New York City. I know from personal knowledge that the Cubans that are domestic born are the richest among all the Hispanic groups right now in 2015. Cuban’s Latino group is at the top in regards to socio economic and educational attainment. In Latino studies and survey’s focuses on comparing socio economic conditions and cultural conditions and problems found within in each primary Latino group. Latino group on the whole still control a small portion of wealth in New York City compared to non Hispanic White, Black, and Asian city residents. The socio economic lower income levels among Latinos maybe at least partially because of lower education attainment compared with Asian, Black and non Hispanic whites. Approximately two thirds of New York City Latinos over the age of 25 reported having no college education, which is higher than Asian, Black and non Hispanic. Puerto Ricans are also the only national group in the Latino population where the majority of respondents were born in the United...
