...Unity is represented as a very significant part in Rachel Perkin's film Mabo and without unity the Mabo land rights case may never have succeeded; however, there are scenes where unity is forgotten. The most crucial display of unity is the unity between Eddie and Bonita and the continual support from Netta shown in numerous ways throughout the fillm. Another example is the unity amongst Eddie and his legal team as well as the Passi brothers because without them, Eddie would not have the same confidence. Nevertheless, a lack of unity is demonstrated in his argument with Netta and the physical abuse that followed. The most important demonstration of unity is depicted through the relationship Eddie has with Netta. The pair supports each other and this is shown through the active reminders from Netta reassuring him that his battle is respectable and that she is proud of him, ultimately giving him the will to continue with his case. Without the support from Netta, Eddie May never have been able to achieve what he had, such as the connection with his family and the land claim of Murray Island. Another example includes job resignation; Netta was unhappy at first but eventually accepts it and soon shows her support. Additionally, Netta threatens to leave him at one point, but she quickly forgives him and this shows that she is a strong woman and to allow her husband to reach his full potential and achieve his dreams was a respectable move. He admits this when he confesses to Netta...

...Human Resource Management (Introduction) 200 Assessment 2 – Case Study Analysis and Essay INTRODUCTION: The purpose of this essay is to identify and describe four human resource issues faced by the companies affected by the earthquakes in Christchurch, New Zealand. As a human resource consultant working for the New Zealand government, four human resource solutions will also be discussed and suggested in order to assist these companies with the problems faced after the earthquake. The key issues brought about by the earthquake are; the shrinking talent pool for staff and the senior management, a fall in demand, a decrease in the morale of both staff and management and the temporary chance of Christchurch’s population to fall. It is important to address these issues because they affect the operations of the companies in a very negative way. These issues can be dealt with by using solutions which have been utilized in other countries which have faced natural disasters, as well as creating new ideas for future problems caused by such disasters. The issues and propositions will be discussed in further detail. Even though there is a low chance of such an event occurring in New Zealand again, they still leave companies not well prepared for the consequences of such an experience (FM Global, 2009). HUMAN RESOURCE ISSUES: The very first issue Christchurch faced was the shrinking talent pool of both their staff and senior management within their companies. This...

...Risk Paper #2 Case Study – Tender Evaluation Marjorie Spitz Keller Graduate School of Management PROJ 595- Project Risk Management Instructor: Professor Bill Lewis Week 7 Date: April 20, 2013 Introduction In a tender evaluation process, it is vital to identify, assess and quantify risks that might be associated with the tender. According to Cooper, Grey, Raymond and Walker (2005), risk management is vital in the tender evaluation process, because risks associated with specific tender responses are identified at an early stage, so they can be addressed explicitly in the tender evaluation. The high-risk areas on which the greatest attention and effort should be focused in the evaluation of tender responses are identified. (Managing Risk in Large Projects and Complex Procurements.Ch.13, pg 148). The goal of this paper is to compare and contrast the two phases of the case study Tender Evaluation. “Phase 1 is concerned with establishing a baseline against which tenders can be assessed, prior to bids being received. Phase 2 compares each submitted tender offer with the baseline, to develop a comparative risk assessment for each one.”(Cooper, Grey, Raymond and Walker, 2005). Both phases are important in order to understand the risks during the tender evaluation process. ...
