...Executive summary The case is a decision case where the main actor is Henry Baker, an expert person in the fitness industry who after the acquisition of is previous company (Personalized Fitness) from a national chain is not happy with the current situation for several reasons. Henry is now in front of a dilemma, because he doesn’t know if continuing to stay in the current company (Mega Fitness) trying to improve the situation or leave and join one of the main competitors in the Tempe area. Despite seems easy jump in the new position in a different company, the analysis reveal that the risk in this movement are pretty high and in the long-term scenario would probably not pay back. The best way to proceed seems in working in both the side for better understands details of the new company in terms of role, style, etc. meanwhile trying to solve issues on the current company (Mega Fitness). In the current scenario with a lack of fundamental information it’s clear from the analysis that work for address the issues in Mega Fitness would be a better option instead to jump in a very risk and uncertain situation (the role of “Junior”, the owner of the competitors company is fundamental and could be disruptive for Henry and his job/career). Typology – Decision case Henry Baker needs to take an important decision, remain in the current company (Mega fitness – national brand) and work for improve the situation or embrace a new adventure joining a competitor (smaller...

...contacts that could help them advance in their careers. After the term was introduced, the society became more and more aware of the unequal career opportunities offered to white men versus all other groups of people. The situation has been changing and improving, little by little. Many researches done in the 80s and 90s of the last century suggested that women were significantly underrepresented in upper management level, and their salaries and wages were much lower than the male counterpart. According to Cai & Kleiner (1999), in a 1989 estimation by the U.S. Department of Labor, only 1 to 2 percent of senior executive management positions include women. The report issued by the Federal Glass Ceiling Commission (as cited in Sincoff, Baker, & Graham, 2006), stated that in 1990 only 6.2% of federally employed women were at or above the level of middle management, while 28% of the men were at or above the same level. A study of female engineers in government services in 1991 showed that less than 3% of all federally employed engineers above the same level were female. At highest level,...

As a new manager in this department I want you all to feel free for to come to me with any questions you may have as we all work towards becoming more efficient and aware of our company’s legal aspects and obligations. In order to fully understand the role laws play into our environment I will describe some basic laws and their purpose in business and how they apply to what we do here and how we do business nationally. American Law Before we get to deep into law in America it is necessary to understand how it came about and what it stands for. American Law is based on English Law because they were the founders of the original colonies but today modern law derives from constitutions, treaties and federal statutes (Cheeseman). Constitutions are the fundamental laws our nation is made of, treaties are the agreements we hold with other nations and states and federal statutes are laws enacted by legislatures for governing the people. These make up the material body of law here in America. It is important to note that the Constitution of the United States of America is what we are governed by. Three separate branches make up our government...

...Name: Steven Gemma Writing Style Used: Turabian Course and Section Number: THEO 202 – D09 Respecting Employees as the Image of God Most Christians believe that humans were created in the image of God. This belief is foundational to the Christian faith. Being fashioned in God’s image endows even the lowliest of sinners with “intrinsic worth”. Because all humans have intrinsic value, managers have a duty to interact with subordinates and customers in a way that reflects God’s love. All people, including poorly performing workers and unreasonable clients, should be “love[d] because he first loved us” (1 John 4:19 NIV). Many generations of Christians have been taught that humankind was created in the image of God. Scripture describes the creation of man in Genesis 1: 26-28. Most Christians interpret the passage in Genesis 1:27 to mean that humans are created in the physical likeness of God. However, the concept of the image of God goes much deeper than a reference to the simple physical likeness of the Creator. The concept also known as imago Dei includes a purpose of humanity. Specifically, following the creation of humankind, God bestowed upon humanity the charge of flourishing, filling the earth, and exercising dominion over the other creatures. Thus, imago Dei describes humanity’s purpose in life and the sense of self-worth. The concept of imago Dei reappears in Genesis 5. This passage reveals that humankind was created in the image of God and Seth was born in the...

...Economic Terms and Health Care History LaTasha Frost HCS/440 February 25, 2014 Instructor Name William Byrd Jr. Economic Terms and Health Care History Before the 1900’s healthcare had a different perception, now in the twenty-first century healthcare is an everyday thing to Americans. Economics is the science that contracts with the distribution, the material welfare of humankind, production, or the ad consumption of goods and services. Even though there are many different reasons why healthcare economics have changed over the years, the most effective reason is health care finance and the supply and demand of care. This paper will discuss the evolution of health care economics, the history and timeline of health care funding. [pic] Doctors had more power and were paid better than before in the early part of the twentieth century. Associations, for example American Hospital Association (AHA) and American Medical Association (AMA), started in the late 1800s, developed sturdier. Work unions then employers began offering a variety of aids to workforces, with funded health care. National health insurance became connected with collectivism and the idea became disliked in the United States, which opened entries to protect the increasing costs of medicinal care for secretive health insurance. Blue Cross was recognized at the end of 1920s and it was the first large medical insurance company established back then. The 1930s saw an increasing number of health...

Teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and loo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. Amen.” (Matt 28:19-20) This is “The Great Commission” from the Bible calling man to the mission arena. While we see evidence of the mission filed throughout the Old Testament it is in the New Testament where the call and instructions and encouragement come to light. The first scripture that addressed the mission mandate was Genesis 12:1-4 when God told Abraham to father a nation. This became the basis for mission work in the Old and New Testament...

Whether it is plant, animal, human or thought nothing exists for very long without addition or subtraction of some kind. Unfortunately theology is not immune.

...The Christian Life Professor L. Swinson BIBL 425 – BO4 LUO Dana R. Peebles May 23, 2015 Introduction For centuries, Christians have looked towards the Bible for insight and guidance on how to live a life of righteousness and be free from the bondage of sin. In looking at The Christian Life and comparing it to what The Book of Romans has to say, we can see that the Spirit is integral to this process. According to Romans 8, this process is part of our sanctification. It is because of God’s grace that we have the ability to decide daily to die to ourselves and accept the opportunity to live as his children. As God’s children, often times we have very different perspectives. In many ways, these different views create debates. The controversy over the issue of God’s grace and gift of salvation, along with our response is one that should not be taken lightly. When looking at what the Apostle Paul says when he stated, “For those God foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the likeness of his Son,” it is obvious that this comment leaves individuals with unanswered questions. [1].What does Paul mean by the expression of “God foreknew?” How do we fathom the election of the “predestined” individuals who are saved and sanctified? And, how are we to understand God and his “foreknowledge” of our eternal security without knowing what it means to be righteous or “conformed to the likeness of his Son?” (Romans 8:29). It...
