...In preparation for Organizational Management (MNGT 5590) ten weeks ago, I decided to print all documents related to it. Upon reading that an Integrative Paper was required to complete the course, I wondered how best to accomplish this task. According to MGNT 5590’s catalogue description, the intent of the course is to introduce students to the basic principles of human behavior effective managers’ use when managing individuals and groups. This include theories related to individual differences in abilities and attitudes, attribution, motivation, group dynamics, power and politics, leadership, conflict resolution, organizational culture, and organizational structure and design. This same description can be best summed up in “The Heart of Change” – Real Life Stories of How People Change Their Organizations. To fulfill the final requirements of MNGT 5590, it is my intent to provide a summation of The Heart of Change, how the books ties into the course’s main text, “Organizational Behavior and Management, and how both books are interwoven into various facets of my life, and finally, I will provide some closing thoughts related to my interest in the Heart of Change and the class in general. Written by John P. Kotter and Dan S. Cohen in 2002, the Heart of Change is based on Leading Change, a book written in 1996 which described how it is not systems or strategies that make organizations successful. Rather, it is...

...Artena Thompson | MNGT-5990 | Artena Thompson | MNGT-5990 | Over 3,000 workers polled in 2009 National Business Ethic Survey in the findings there was 49% observed ethical misconduct. The issues ranged from company resources abuse to bribes and illegal political contributions. The ethical misconducts/issues can fall within Employee Mistreatment, Customer Mistreatment, Unethical Employee Behavior, Corporate Intelligence Issues, and Accounting Practices. Employee Mistreatment can also be workplace abuse which is a behavior that causes workers emotional or physical harm. Harassment, discrimination, bullying and violence are forms of workplace abuse. These behaviors aren’t always distinguishable from one another because they frequently overlap. Harassment can be discriminatory, bullying can be a form of harassment, and any of these behaviors can lead to workplace violence. Employee Mistreatment can come from coworkers mistreating each other, managers mistreating employees, sexual mistreatment, assaults, discriminations against woman with lower wages, discriminations against minorities, and corporate bulling. In my research I found that corporate bulling happens more than one thinks and it’s a complex issue. While there are a variety of reasons why bullies choose to target other people, usually their behavior is driven by the bully’s need to control the targeted individual. These employees want to call all the shots. So they often insist on having things their way and...

...Mark Allen MNGT. 4600 Mrs. Newman November 12, 2014 Final Report (1st Draft) I am doing my community service with Project Uplift, an organization affiliated with the university, which I have been involved with for almost 3 years now. Project Uplift is a volunteer/mentor program, which helps children around Lee County develop constructive, happy lives. I joined this organization in hopes of helping to make a child’s life better by spending a few hours per week with them. My friend, Sammy, and I began Project Uplift together by choosing a child based on information given to us by the organization. I have gotten the opportunity to spend many hours with Rell throughout our time together. I hope he gets as much out of our meetings as I do. My goal with Rell is to have an impact on him in a positive way so that he makes good decisions in life based on what he has learned through the years with Sammy and I. My experience with Project Uplift thus far has been magnificent and I believe it has made me a better person along the way. Seeing Rell grow up throughout the time spent with him is probably my favorite part of the whole experience. Rell was in fifth grade when we first met him two and a half years ago. It was difficult to even get a word out of him in the first couple of months we met, but now he is bouncing off of the walls when we pick him up. We have grown very close throughout the past couple of years and have made great progress from where we started. ...

Under no circumstances may a corporation change its scal year without IRS permission. A taxpayer engaged in two or more separate and distinct businesses may use different accounting methods for both businesses. A grocery store may use the cash basis of reporting sales. In general, a CPA on the cash basis method will never have a bad debt deduction. A cash basis taxpayer may deduct prepaid business expenses currently. Both cash and accrual basis taxpayers will be taxed on a dividend when it is actually received. Computing cost of goods soldand being on the accrual basis are independent of each other. If, in the IRSs opinion, the taxpayers books do not clearly reect income, the IRS may revise them so that they do. Taxpayers must generally obtain the permission of the IRS to change accounting methods. A correction of an error in a tax return is usually considered a change in accounting method. The IRS can require a change in accounting methods if the method used by a taxpayer does not clearly reect income. IRS permission is not required for a change from FIFO to LIFO.
