Most employees feel the need to conform, to not get involved in any disagreements, and to have superficial relationships with their co-workers so that everyone likes them and so that they can get promoted. ABC’s weakest style was humanistic or encouraging. Training, helping, and coaching other co-workers are infrequent because the focus is on everyone getting their own stuff done and letting other co-workers figure it out on their own.

...fact are still following the Western format. This buddy trope typically consists of two male characters as the lead, one white man and one man of another race (usually black). This trope was a popular demonstration of the façade that the blacks and the whites get along perfectly and treat each other equally and with equal respect. Although this idea was still just a façade, it was entertaining especially to the American audience. This buddy trope was shown in “The Pioneers” through the use of Natty Bumpo and John Mohegan (Chingachgook), Natty being the white man and Indian John being the man of color in this case. Natty is a woodsman who lives in a cabin with John who used to be a powerful Indian Chief and they both happen to know Fire-Eater, the man who used to own all the land in their area. In general, throughout the story of “The Pioneers” the characters that are not both white and male are treated with disrespect and unfairly. For example, in Chapter 12 while Oliver...

Linda's father, Oliver, once tried to enlist Linda into the white school but the principal refused. Oliver then contacted William Everett Glenn, Sr., a Topeka attorney and Mckinley Burnett, the head of the Topeka NAACP branch, about his concerns regarding "separate but equal policies" of Topeka schools. The separate but equal doctrine came about in the case of Plessy v. Ferguson which stated that having blacks and whites in separate equal facilities did not violate the Equal Protection Clause. On May 17, 1954 the United States Supreme Court decided unanimously that The Board of Education acted unconstitutionally and that they violated the 14th Amendment by separated children if for no other reason than for their race.

...respectability, cosequently a single woman with a child was emarginated because of a wide-spread sense of female chastity. Sexuality was generaly repressed and that led to extreme manifestations of prudery. Colonialism was an important phenomenon and it led to a patriotism deeply influenced by ideas of racial superiority: British people thought that they were obeying to God by the imposition of their superior way of life. The concept of “the white man’s burden” was exalted in the works of colonial writers (such as Rudyard Kipling). This code of values, known as “Victorian Compromise” founds its basis in some religious and philosophical movements: * evangelicalism: influenced the emphasis upon moral conduct; it had been created in 18th century by John Wesley who believed in the dedication to humanitarian causes and social reforms; * utilitarianism: whose theorist was Jeremy Bentham, neglected human and cultural values and trusted reason as...

Haught’s text “The Promise of Nature” is why we should care about the natural world. The answer that he gives us is that, should we be Christian, is it is within the doctrine; but within the perspective of Christian thought, he gives us three distinct approaches that justify caring about the natural world: The Apologetic, the Sacramental, and the Eschatological approaches. The Apologetic. The Apologetic is the closest to the original doctrine as possible, a rather recent occurrence within the church and a hardly mentioned part of the article. This method looks for scriptural passages...

...strategies. There are between 700,000 to 1,000,000 falls in hospitals in the United States (Preventing falls in hospitals: A toolkit for improving quality of care, 2013). If a patient falls any number of serious injuries could occur, such as bruising, lacerations, fractures, hemorrhaging, and even death. The costs of treating a patient for injuries as a result of a fall while in the hospital is not reimbursed by Medicare as of 2008 (Preventing falls in hospitals: A toolkit for improving quality of care, 2013). Not only will the facility not get reimbursed for costs related to the fall, the patient may likely have a longer length of stay and could potentially need subacute rehabilitation services that might not have otherwise been needed (Oliver, Daly, Martin, & McMurdo, 2004). At Ellis Medicine in Schenectady, New York, many tools are used to try to prevent a patient from falling. To start, a fall risk assessment is done upon admission of the patient. The fall risk assessment contains questions regarding the patients age, diagnosis,...

...Article Sydney Morning Herald 2013, ‘Bosch dumps solar business as losses mount’, Sydney Morning Herald, 25 March, viewed 28 March 2013, Summary Bosch, a German Engineering Company, is removing its solar energy business in all worldwide locations early next year after it failed to add value to the organizations portfolio (Sydney Morning Herald 2013). Despite early efforts by management to expand their renewable energies business, most notably Bosch’s 1.1 billion euro acquisition of Ersol (Gow 2008), increases in price competition from China and Bosch’s overcapacity of solar products diminished hopes of long-term company stability (Sydney Morning Herald 2013). Despite this, interest in Bosch remains strong with share prices showing a high market capitalization (moneycontrol.com 2013). Application This article focuses primarily on the economic environment, with increasing evidence that the differences in global market economies have affected Bosch’s competitiveness in the global solar energy market. There has been increased interest from society and government for environmentally friendly and renewable fuels over the past years, and demand to continuously provide new, cheaper and endless forms (Styring, 2012). Due to this aggregate demand, Bosch invested heavily in solar operations, spending close to two billion euros since 2008 in acquisitions and manufacturing sites globally (Nicola 2013). However, with a surplus of Chinese solar panels entering the market...

...Major Assignment – Business Report University of the Sunshine Coast University of the Sunshine Coast Executive Summary This report identifies the environmental activity costs of using Dyetype and Adhesive materials to produce a product. The tables below separate which one of these two chemicals is causing the most damage to the environment. Tables have proven that there is an excessive use of the Dyetype material. Both chemicals have been calculated using the life-cycle assessment to show unit cost per kilogram price for each product. The findings from the report immediately draw attention to the Dyetype chemical having the most environmental impact out of the two chemicals. The company also discovers that there are additional toxins being released which require $2,700,000 to cover the total costs. The Balance Scorecard is considered for the effects of toxin releases. If there is an fifth perspective to the balance scorecard Eco efficiency must be contributed adding environmental perspective to the Mudjimba Chemical Ltd plant.
