CASE STUDY | Management | Human Behavior in Organization | | | CASE 1. STATE UNIVERSITY BOARD OF REGENTS What I am Living for? The three personalities who are Dr. H.C. Agao, Mr. Francisco Bundoc and his wife, Mrs. Bundoc have made wrong actions. There is an attitude problem in them which stops them from doing the right thing. Mr. Bundoc should have stand for what is right and should not be affected for selfish reasons of others. Being appointed as a member of board of regents of a state university, Mr. Bundoc has a say in decisions made for it. Because of having a name for being a successful businessman and a respectable president in local chapter of a civic organization, he has the capability of convincing other members to support his good intentions for the university’s students. That’s why proposal of the university president, Dr. Agao, was rejected and made him to find away on how he can make Mr. Bundoc agree to his wishes. This shows that he is a type of person who gets what he wants by hook or by crook or who desires for power to have control on the situation just to be not defeated and be disgraced in front of other people. And so, Dr. Agao befriended Mrs. Bundoc and proposed an arrangement that gave her a lucrative income and put her trust to him. Indulged by the money she gets from the arrangement...

...Case 2: RUDY AND FRANKIE: Two Different Worlds What would you tell Frankie if he shares his thoughts with you? I would tell Frankie that nothing is permanent rich may become poor while poor may become rich and to become successful, it doesn’t necessarily need that you’re intelligent or with the highest honor, sometimes we need to be productive and wise. In Rudy's side he made his result of his decision he was not afraid to let go of his study because he used his own abilities that lead him to success. Contrast Effect Frankie is more intelligent than Rudy in Academics-Rudy should have focus in studying his lessons more than anything else But even he did not finished his college Rudy had been successful yet also with his life. He defeated Frankie which is graduated from college. Projection Rudy quit on his studies during second year - Rudy should have strive more, finds inspiration and be motivated in studying and because there he found a way to be satisfied and be successful in life even though he finished he became billionaire. Stereotyping Frankie could not believe that Rudy is richer than him - Frankie must not depend only in his profession to earn money; he should invest or start on his own business too. Case 1: State University Board of Regents: What am I Living For? Is there anything wrong with the action of the three personalities in this case? The three personalities who are Dr. H.C.

...Case 1. STATE UNIVERSITY BOARD OF REGENTS: What Am I Living For? Question: Is there anything wrong with the actions of the three personalities in this case? Elaborate your answer. After reading the case study and analyzing it, from my opinion I think yes there is anything wrong with the actions of the three personalities- Mr.Bondoc, his wife and Dr. Agao. For elaboration I will explain them one by one. Mr.Bondoc acted as the champion of the student’s cause therefore it’s his responsibility to fight for the own good of the students, the one who will voice out their stands and if possible disagree to the proposals that may greatly affect them like increasing of their tuition fee.It’s great that he has the attitude of convincing others in personal way for them to agree of opposing the proposals of Dr. Agao because of this they can stop his proposals. He must maintain and assure that he is doing his job and must not allow others to control him in bad way or stop him to do his obligation but stated on the case study his wife wished him to maintain good relationship with Dr.Agao which unfortunately leads him to suddenly accept his proposals. It showed that he let others dictate him what to do and failed to do his job. About the wife of Mr.Bondoc, she was carried away by the good actions showed by Dr. Agao without knowing his real intentions of befriending her. Shecan be easily manipulated like what Dr. Agao wanted her to do through doing special treatments...

...Quotas: From Discrimination to Democratic Legitimacy EARLY DRAFT – NOT FOR CITATION It is an established rule of U.S. constitutional law that the state cannot impose or pursue race or gender quotas.[1] In the private sector, an employer’s pursuit of numerically fixed race or gender balance is suspect under Title VII.[2] Under both bodies of antidiscrimination law, quotas are regarded as discrimination. If a civil rights initiative can be portrayed as encouraging employers to adopt quotas, its political demise is nearly certain in the United States.[3] Narrow forms of affirmative action have survived, legally and politically, only to the extent that they can be distinguished from quotas. Quotas are so widely regarded as legally, politically, and morally repugnant that they are taboo: The “q-word”[4] is rarely the subject of any serious debate, even by those who favor stronger civil rights protections for women and minorities. The related belief in the illegitimacy of ever pursuing numerically informed demographic balance – especially along lines of race or gender -- is gaining strength in the Supreme Court’s major antidiscrimination cases in the last several years.[5] It is widely accepted – even by civil rights advocates – that pursuing racial or gender balance as a goal, “for its own sake,” would be illegitimate.[6] This principle threatens the constitutionality of race-based affirmative action, which may meet its demise in Fisher v. Texas next Term. Meanwhile...

One of those tax reforms was the Value Added Tax scheme (VATs). The purpose of this study is to assess...

...the need for intercultural understanding has led to the inclusion of an ‘ideological’ dimension in the mission statements of many such schools. M. Hayden and J. Thompson This booklet provides an insight to the origins and characteristics of international schools, curriculum and assessment, students and teaching staff, and the management, leadership and governance of these schools. The booklet also discusses how international schools (usually private and feepaying) might develop in the future against a backdrop of growing forces of globalization and other international influences. In all cases, attention is drawn to the implications of the issues discussed for both policy-makers and planners in national and international contexts. The authors Mary Hayden is Director of the Centre for the Study of Education in an International Context (CEIC) at the University of Bath, where she teaches and supervises Masters and doctoral students with interests in international schools and international education.

...with equal value and therefore have unequal treatment. Whilst employers should enforce policies that are designed to prevent sex discrimination in recruitment and selection, pay, training, promotions, discipline and grievances, this is not always the case. Although women within work is on the rise as in 2013 the female employment rate reached 67.2, which is the highest it has ever been since Office for National Statistics’ records began, the median weekly earnings for women fell from £413 to £411. This means the gender pay gap has now risen from £89 to £97 pounds a week as weekly earnings for men rose from £502 to £508. With this in mind, I am proposing to argue the fact that women are still not treated equally to men within organisations in the UK based on my three chosen chapters that are ‘The History of Women and their Rights’, ‘Gender Equality Governmental Laws and Gender Pay’ and ‘Influential Women’. Within my chapter of the history of women and their rights I will focus on the timeline of history of working women and the people who fought for the rights to get to where we are today. I will also focus on the dates of massive movements towards equality for women within the UK and how this was achieved. In the second chapter I will be discussing Gender Equality Governmental Laws put...
