...9-300-001 REV: JULY 25, 2001 CHRISTOPOHER A. BARTLETT Microsoft: Competing on Talent (A) In the summer of 1999, a front page Wall Street Journal article was attracting attention on the Redmond campus. Under the headline “As Microsoft Matures, Some Top Talent Chooses to Go Off Line,” the article reported: “Tired of grueling deadlines, frustrated by the bureaucracy that has accompanied Microsoft’s explosive growth, or lured away by the boom in high-tech start-ups, dozens i of the company’s most capable leaders, all around 40, have opted out—at least temporarily . . .” (See Exhibit 1 for the article’s list of senior level departures.) Steve Ballmer, the company’s recently appointed president and COO, was quoted as saying that some of the departures were voluntary and some were not, opening opportunities for fresher, smarter replacements. “We have a bench that is very deep,” he said. “We have people who are fired ii Yet despite the positive outlook, Ballmer clearly up—driven—to lead the next generation.” recognized that Microsoft had to change or adapt some of the human resource practices that had allowed it to assemble and retain what CEO Bill Gates proudly called “the best team of software professionals the world has ever seen.” Just six weeks before the WSJ article was published, Ballmer had announced a package of changes that sweetened salaries, allowed more frequent promotions, and softened some of the pressures that had long been part of the ”hard-core” Microsoft culture....

URBI March, 2015 Chapter 1 THE PROBLEM AND ITS BACKGROUND Introduction Social Studies play a very important role in the modernization of mankind. It is therefore that students should acquire sufficient knowledge on it. Over the past years, social studies as a subject, educators have noted that students in many schools in the Philippines are still considered low in their achievements. Empirical studies like the Ramos, R. Survey (1980) show that there has been deterioration in the students’ achievement because of the focus in dealing with the subject social studies. The Ramos, R Survey by a group of Filipinos researchers found that pupils in elementary Sibika at Kultura in 1979 are more behind, and the high school students of Araling Panlipunan are years behind their counterparts in history of mankind, early civilization, government, taxation and economics in dealing with reasoning as a logic and explaining through what is happened to connect to the present times. Interested in the subject is being encouraged by teachers, but despite the resultant increase in interest, symposia and fora, as well as the abundance of approaches and materials, our educational system is plagued of the students with seemingly inherent adverse reaction towards...

Iba-iba ang dahilan kung bakit naninigarilyo ang tao. Ang una ay dahil nakakatanggal ng kaba, pangalawa nakakataas ng pangatlo ay gusto lang itong gamitin dahil maraming ding gumagamit nito. Ayon sa isang pananaliksik ay ang isang epekto ng paninigarilyo at ang pagkawala ng ngipin. Kahit saan ka pumunta ngayon ay may makikita kang naninigarilyo at iyon ay isng sa mga problema ng hindi malulutas, kung paano maitigil ang paninigarilyo.

Isa sa mga nakikitang sanhi ay ang maagang pagbubuntis. Mga “batang Ina” kung tawagin ng lipunan. Marahil sa pagsusumikap na makaraos sa sariling problema kung kaya't tinatakbuhan ang pagkamausisa o curiosity, udyok ng kasamahan, pagrerebelde sa magulang, o talagang bugso lang ng damdamin na nagiging sanhi ng masidhing pampalit sa panandaliang kaligayahan. Kabilang ako sa mga nabuntis ng maaga. Binuhay ng pangarap para sa kinabukasan ko at para sa mga magulang ko. Mayroon kaming tipikal na buhay. Mga kamag anak sa ibang bansa na kahit paano'y tumutulong sa mga magulang ko ukol sa buwanan naming gastusin. Ang mga magulang ko ay manggagawa sa ilalim ng gobyerno na kagaya ng pangkaraniwang tao ay mayroon ding minimum range ng sweldo. Kumbaga nakakaraos rin naman sa araw-araw na pamumuhay, minsan sobra, madalas ay sapat lang. Nasa ikatlong taon ako ng kolehiyo. Dahan-dahan kong inaakyat ang bawat baitang ng hagdan para abutin ang mga pangarap ko. Hangga sa isang araw, delayed ang period...

...The Rise (and Fall) of the Japanese Yen Lawrence Cifarelli III, Nazanin Ershad, Natthima Sonsoem, Anyesha Mahaptra University of New Haven Abstract This Case study provides an insight to the fluctuations experienced in the currency of Japan, Yen from the late 1990’s to recent years. Japan follows the floating currency monetary policy due to which there is no measures taken on to control the fluctuations. Japan experienced magnificent growth through the 60's, 70's, and 80's leading into the 90's beginning. In the late 1990's, Japan’s economy marked its growth significantly slower, which had then come to be known as the 'lost decade' due to Japanese Asset Price bubble that collapsed. Eventually the nation faced major issues regarding environmental disasters, hollowing out of industries, etc. The past events which have caused the rise and downfall of Japanese Yen has been illustrated for examining the causes of the appreciation and depreciation of this currency. The influence of this floating currency on Japan's economy has been depicted in this case study. This paper also provides some applications of the measures that can maintain the stability of the Japanese Yen. Japan experienced tremendous growth throughout the 1960s, 1970s, and 1980s leading into the leading into the early 1990s. After World War II, Japan underwent a period of restoration followed by the events in 1978 where Japan excelled as a manufacturer partnering with the United States which helped to make its...

...CHAPTER I INTRODUCTION Prefatory: The International Labour Organization (ILO) introduced the concept of the informal sector more than 25 years ago. The informal sector has been understood to mean very small-scale units producing and distributing goods and services, and consisting largely of independent, self-employed producers in urban and rural areas of developing countries, some of which also employ family labour and/or few hired workers or apprentices; which operates with very little capital or none at all; which utilize a low level of technology and skills; which therefore operates at a low level of productivity; and which generally provides very low and irregular income and highly unstable employment to those who work in it. It also includes activities that are carried out without formal approval from authorities and escape the administrative machinery responsible for enforcing legislation and similar instruments. [1] The informal sector, with its enterprising individuals and groups, can be seen as counterbalancing cure to many ill effects of globalization. [2] Firstly, the informal sector absorbs all the victims of globalization—displaced workers, forced retirees, educated unemployed and many more. While the informal sector cannot offer jobs, it can offer income opportunities. In this sense, the informal sector is itself a safety net. Secondly, the informal sector cushions the impact of globalization on the surviving formal...

SALVADOR, JEMELZON ANGGUZ DJORGE SUBMITTED TO: Maam Marianne Shalimar g. del Rosario CHAPTER 2: Rebyu ng mga Kaugnay na Literatura at Pag-aaral And edukasyon ay isang bagay na mahalaga na dapat taglayin ng isang indibidwal. As it defined, it is a form of learning in which the knowledge, skills, and habits of a group of people are transferred from one generation to the next through teaching, training. Moreover, it frequently takes place under the guidance of others, but may also be autodidactic. Any experience that has a formative effect on the way one think, feels, or acts may be considered educational (Wikipedia). That is the reason why, the Philippine government assigns the highest budgetary priority (Article XIV sec. 5 of the 1987 Philippine Constitution) to provide free education to all. According to one of the readings, education is absolutely beneficial for society on the whole. It is a lifelong process to each person that needs to be reinforced throughout life. However, we need education system that may eradicate illiteracy and may provide the common man an access not only to basic education but also to higher and technical education. Education is a teaching and learning process that involves teachers whose function is to teach young individuals and learners who will gain all the learning imparted...
