...Examining My Communities Source Of Energy Aaron L. Hunt Argosy University July 11, 2014 Electricity, natural gas and solar energy are the three primary types of energy used in my community. Electricity is the only type of energy I use in my home. Dealing with any energy source, you are bound to have some type of negative impact on the environment. For example, the use of fossil fuels to create electricity omits dust, soot and other materials that are released into the atmosphere. In addition, the same solid materials along with chemicals that naturally occur in the atmosphere, assists in creating acid rain and negatively affecting my community. Pensacola, Florida deals with a low level amount of nuclear waste. Radioactive waste resulting from a nuclear medicine treatment, medical equipment that uses radioactive isotopes and cancer therapies are the extent of nuclear waste disposal in my community. , however, like many communities we dispose of toxic and hazardous wastes such as electronics, industrial waste and asbestos. Electricity and gas has been the two main energy sources for many years in my community. The demand for electricity is constantly growing with the expansion of my community so companies are attempting to generate electrical energies from The Straits of Florida. The installation of EPUs or Electrical Production Units can potentially damage sensitive coastal marine environments and are hazards to migrating mammals and fish. (Finkl, Charlier & Makowski...

...M5A1 Case Study General Electric Paul D. Balmforth Excelsior College M5A1 Case Study General Electric General Electric; many years ago, found themselves with declining sales for their appliances. General Electric instead of just accepting a declining market share General Electric instead chose to invest in the development of new product innovation and comprehensive brand positioning (Person Education). General electric focused on developing appliances they had limited distribution, that provided capabilities and dependability that created in excitement in customers, and that allowed the company to charge high end prices for their products. Limited Distribution Strategy As General Electric looked at how to market their Profile and Monogram appliance products they chose to use a limited distribution strategy. Through the use of a limited distribution strategy General Electric not only enhanced the image of their appliance products but shopping experience for their customers. By limiting who could sell their upper end appliances and mandating how they would be displayed and supported allowed General Electric to differentiate their Profile and Monogram appliance lines from their competitors. By incorporating a limited distribution strategy, General Electric was able to brand their Profile and Monogram appliance lines as exclusive upper end products.

...------------------------------------------------- M5A1: GDP, Unemployment and Inflation [Document subtitle] November 20, 2015 November 20, 2015 If the government guarantees income to those who are unemployed I think it could lower the unemployment rate. The individuals that currently receive unemployment benefits are counted in the unemployment rate. Those people are able to work and they are actively seeking employment. If the government guaranteed an income, the people that don’t really want to work would stop looking for a job which would drop them from the labor force. If they are not part of the labor force then they are not counted in the unemployment rate. I don’t think a cost of living adjustment should apply for those that are unemployed. If the government income is not enough to support the individual or a family that person would only need to earn enough to supplement the support. That means they could take an important but lower paying job which are usually much easier to find and don’t require an extensive skill set. Okun’s Law says that each additional percentage of unemployment translates into a loss of 3 percent in real output, that number was adjusted to 2 percent due to the change in the labor force (Schiller, 2013). The labor force will continue to grow each year and with less people looking for jobs those that want to work should be able to find employment. A guaranteed ...

They created this search engine so that users can find any website or document on the web based on keyword or exact searches. Google provides free services for their users. Introduction What is a team? A team is defined as a group of people with a full set of complementary skills required to complete a task, job, or project. Teams members (1) operate with a high degree of interdependence, (2) share authority and responsibilities for self-management, (3) are accountable for the collective performance, and (4) work toward a common goal and shared rewards(s). Team becomes more than just a collection of people when a strong sense of mutual commitment creates synergy, thus generating performance greater than the sum of the performance of its individual members (Business Dictionary.com, 2014). It is equally important for us to know that a team is a small number of people with complementary skills who are committed to a common purpose, performing goals, and approach for which they hold themselves mutually accountable (Kreitner & Kinicki, 2013, p. 300). Similarly, an excerpt by Franklin Covey “4 Disciplines of Execution” is of the view that the four discipline of...

...Joey Van Hoose Excelsior ID# 30796152 M5A1- Nestlé Nestlé Case Study Nestlé has been considered the world’s largest food and beverage company for many years and they achieved this by operating under a localization strategy. Under a localization strategy, a company focuses on local responsiveness, and requires little coordination between the subunits. Working under a localization strategy, firms do not have a high need to integrate mechanisms to knit together different national operations. With that each operation has the ability to control operations by relying primarily on output and bureaucratic controls and a policy of management by exception. Considering the need for integration and coordination is low, under a localization strategy, the need for common processes and organization culture is also low (Hill, 2011). With that, each operating unit basically acts as its own entity, creating their own independent set of core values and policies. Nestlé traces its origins back to the first European condensed milk factory, based in Cham, Switzerland, that opened in 1865 by the Anglo-Swiss Condensed Milk Company. One year after this, Henri Nestlé, a trained pharmacist, launched one of the world’s first prepared infant formula companies in Vevey, Switzerland. The two companies, that at the time were fierce competitors, decided to merge in 1905 to become the Nestlé we know today, and their headquarters are still in Vevey, Switzerland (Nestlé, 2012). Nestlé begin with the...
