...psychological aspect. This disorder is better known nowadays as the “Sickness of the twenty-first century” given that it seems to be the price to pay tin order to achieve goals these days. Stress is most common in students and workers nowadays, which is why the following essay will expose some of the consequences of underestimating the seriousness of stress in an individual, in a work place and in a society of the twenty-first century and some ways to manage and prevent it. Stress is manifested nowadays more frequently that one would imagine. People should start to think how frequently do they and people around them use the phrases “I am so stressed out” or “I’ve been feeling so stressed lately”. The answer would most likely be “too frequent”. Actually, stress seems to be infiltrating in each and every person’s life. The time that people spend stressing over an assignment, especially students, is inhumane. There is nothing wrong with taking two minutes and eat something or relax. Otherwise, that’s where stress begins to kick in. Stress has begun to take away peoples lives. Even if they are not working, they are still thinking of what they need to hand in or to do for Monday. People are already regularly stressed on a daily basis, because of any inconvenience at work, any traffic and any noises that people have to put up with every day. Besides that permanent stress, there is the stress that people put on them because of the pressure to do something on time and well...

...SWOT Analysis | What is SWOT Analysis? | Examples of SWOT Analysis SWOT analysis was originally conceived and developed in the 1960s and its basic organising principles have remained largely unchanged in the field of strategic management since that time (Kotler et al., 2013). It is, as Ghazinoory, Abdi and Azadegan-Mehr (2011) comment, a systematic framework which helps managers to develop their business strategies by appraising the internal and external determinants of their organisation’s performance. Internal environmental factors include leadership talent, human resource capabilities, the company’s culture as well as the effectiveness of its policies and procedures. In contrast, external factors include competition, government legislation, changing trends, and social expectations (Johnson, Scholes and Whittington, 2008). The SWOT analysis framework involves analysing the strengths (S) and weaknesses (W) of the business’s internal factors, and the opportunities (O) and threats (T) of its external factors of performance (Ghazinoory, Abdi and Azadegan-Mehr, 2011). Through this analysis, the weaknesses and strengths within a company can correspond to the opportunities and threats in the business environment so that effective strategies can be developed (Helms and Nixon, 2010). It follows from this, therefore, that an organisation can derive an effective strategy by taking advantage of its opportunities by using its strengths and neutralise its threats by minimising the impact...

However, now economic environment means that it is something no company can afford to ignore (Mortimer, 2011). This essay will be evaluating the role of internal marketing in ensuring the delivery of excellent customer. And suggest ways in some companies like TESCO, Enterprise and FedEx can successfully engage and motivate staff. Such as: internal communication, empowerment, and motivation. Also discusses the relationship between internal marketing and internal marketing, and how does it could enhance the external marketing. Internal marketing Internal marketing is a means of involving staff at all levels in effective marketing programmers by enabling them to understand their role within the marketing process (http://www.slideshare.net/engineer_Sood/internal-marketing-presentation). A key premise underlying Berry’s (1981) ‘employees as customers’ concept in internal marketing is that similar to external customers, internal customers desire to have their needs satisfied (Ahmed and Rafiq, 2003: 1177). Internal marketing theories state that the business emphasizes the importance in employee need satisfaction, and approaches jobs as internal products, aimed towards the development and motivation of best-qualified personnel (Zampetakis and Moustakis, 2007: 417). Palmatier, Dant, Grewal and Evans (2006: 137- 138) delineate this concept and state that the “logic of...

Dear Mr. Lee Re: Computer Graphic Designer With reference to the advertisement in the SCMP on January 11, 1998, I am writing to apply for the position of Computer Graphic Designer. I am currently a full-time student studying a degree course in Information Technology at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University and I am due to graduate in June1998. As you can see from the enclosed CV, I have extensive experience in computer graphic design. Apart from the formal training I have obtained from my three-year course and summer programmes, I have had a number of part-time and summer jobs which have helped me to gain experience in designing computer graphics. Frequent participation in workshops, competitions and extra-curricular activities involving the subject has also allowed me to develop insight into the area. My professional training at the university requires adaptability and creative use of the resources available to produce graphics for real customers in the business world. Working as a student researcher during the last semester has further expanded my skills in data processing and graphic design, and more importantly, my ability to work independently. I feel, therefore, that I have not only the experience that you are looking for, but a number of other invaluable skills which would benefit me in this position. ...

...requirements or it does not. Juran (1988) defines quality as fitness for use. Total quality management (TQM) is a new way of perceiving about the management of organizations (Chorn, 1991) and an inclusive way to improve organizational performance in total and quality (Hunt, 1993). Satisfying customer needs and understanding their future requirements is the crux of total quality management, and customer is the major reason for an organization’s existence. Organizations have embraced the cause of quality by believing that quality can offer new opportunities for competitive advantage to the competitors (Kelemen, 2003). Furthermore, quality influences the organization by influencing all organizational members. The pursuit of quality alters the way jobs are designed and roles and responsibilities of the employees (Victor et al., 2000). David Garvin (1984) has identified eight dimensions of goods’ quality including performance, features, reliability, conformance, durability, serviceability, aesthetics and perceived image. Parasuraman, Zeithaml and Berry (1988) has developed SERVQUAL, a measurement scale that enables them to determine five dimensions of service quality which includes tangibles, reliability, responsiveness, assurance and empathy. There are two other ways of looking at quality, Kelemen (2003) offers four managerial perspectives...

...Running head: GREEN TEAM Human Relations and Communications Theories Joy Hilton Mandy D. Edwards Ayesha Wilson Ronte Harris Grand Canyon University EDA 534 July 18, 2012 Human Relations and Communications Theories Human relations, or being able to interact with others, are a must in education. On a daily basis, people within a school system must interact with various individuals including co-workers, parents, students, and stakeholders. The end result of human relations is to make any situation better. Human nature, human motivation, morale and organizations, and informal organizations are all relevant to positive human relations. Over the course of the years there have been numerous changes to the way teachers, students and stakeholders view education. After school programs, data driven education and the way we prepare students are just a few of the things that have been affected since the beginnings of No Child Left Behind. Since there are so many changes, it is imperative that all parties understand the changes that have taken place across cultures. “How a young girl or boy grew up to be an adult in Medievalmedieval times was not the same as their counterparts in ancient Rome or Athens, or today.” (Smeyers & Burbules, 2006) Teachers cannot introduce the same materials in the same way they may have taught thirty years ago.
