...Should I Get an MBA? Jane Doe University of Phoenix: MGT/521 October 11, 2012 Joseph Mason The definition of MBA according to Wikipedia (2012) is the following: Master of Business Administration (MBA or M.B.A.) is a master's degree in business administration, which attracts people from a wide range of academic disciplines. The MBA designation originated in the United States, emerging from the late 19th century as the country industrialized and companies sought out scientific approaches to management. The core courses in the MBA program are designed to introduce students to the various areas of business such as accounting, finance, marketing, human resources, operations management, etc. Students in MBA programs have the option of taking general business courses throughout the program or can select an area of concentration and focus approximately one-fourth of their studies in this subject (“Wikipedia”, 2012). Accreditation bodies exist specifically for MBA programs to ensure consistency and quality of graduate business education. Business schools in many countries offer MBA programs tailored to full-time, part-time, executive, and distance learning students, with specialized concentrations (“Wikipedia”, 2012). I asked myself a series of questions of “Why should I get an MBA”? I took a systemic approach by addressing all the pro’s and cons of having an MBA. First, the pros of an MBA give you credibility...

Executive Summary The web based social networking platform in India was always ruled by the giant from the house of Google called Orkut. Launched in 2004, within 5 years of its time Orkut grabbed a whopping 17.5 million visitors in India alone. But since the year 2008 Facebook is experiencing a boom in its user base throughout the world with India being no exception.

Of late it has been seen that Facebook has grabbed all the limelight in the social networking website arena. One of the main factors which propelled Facebook to a formidable position in the competition among social networking sites is the introduction of free online games.

This report is aimed at analysing the attributes of Facebook which has won over Orkut from a user’s perspective. A survey was conducted among 50 respondents mostly of the age group of 18 to 25.For the comparative analysis a semantic differential scale is used.

...Week 3 Discussion Question Response Reflect on this week’s Learning Resources and on your own experience as a leader (preferably in a work context but possibly in a volunteer or personal context), and describe an instance in which your leadership was not successful because you simply ‘told’ rather than ‘shared’. Now, using and referencing this week’s Learning Resources, describe how and why you might have handled this situation differently. Ayopeju Njideaka/H0032748 (University of Liverpool , Online MBA) Introduction Many approaches have been adopted in the attempt to define leadership – philosophical, scientific, non-scientific. Leadership is so complex that experimentation has not yielded much , holding all but one variable constant is impossible. Grint (2000) states that survey and review of successful leader approaches are mostly used for leadership research. Both produce results that are informative rather than definitive. According to Maxwell (2011), Leadership is influence. A business leader seeks to influence his team to maximise their effort at achieving the predetermined goals. Getting people to perform at their best takes a lot more than wielding authority over them. In my experience, employees give their all to the organisation when they feel valued. Organisational leaders and managers are instrumental to this feeling. To the employee, they are the face of the organisation. The complexity of Leadership can be attributed to many variables. Some of the variables...
