...Current Management Situation (A Profile of Philippine Management) Management activities as planning, organizing and decision-making are cocoons until the leadership triggers the power of motivation in people and guides them towards goals. The primary public service that any business can render is its own economic success, its ability to harness science and technology to the production of better goods and services that increase employment and raise our standard of living. The job of professional management is to conduct the affairs of the enterprise in such a way as to maintain an equitable and workable balance among the claims of the various directly interested groups-stockholders, employees, customers, and the public at large. The origins of Filipino managers Filipino managers are predominantly of indigenous Philippine racial stock although a significant number are of foreign origin, primarily Chinese, Spanish, and American. Filipino managers have come mostly from the higher socio-economic strata of Philippine society. They are composed largely of individuals from outside the metropolitan area, belonging to families with above-average landholdings. Invariably, their career paths were paved by family ties or consanguinity. Thus, Filipino managers are strongly oriented to their families of origin. The breadwinner in their family (usually the father) has an occupation that is either of the independent, upper white-collar or professional categories and whose position...

...Case Study: McDonald’s With intense domestic and intentional competition in the Filipino fast-food market, McDonald’s needs accurate demographic and geographic data in order to understand the current market situation. Challenge With intense domestic and intentional competition in the Filipino fast-food market, McDonald’s needs accurate demographic and geographic data in order to understand the current market situation. Summary Company McDonald’s Philippines is a subsidiary of the Filipino-owned Golden Arches Development Corporation. The first Filipino McDonald’s to open for business was in the Morayta university districts in Manila during 1981. These days McDonald’s is operating over 150 restaurants throughout the islands of the Philippines. Being a 100% Filipino-owned franchise allows McDonald’s Philippines to be more agile and take quicker actions, making them an even more competitive force in the Filipino fast-food market. Challenge Accurate and timely demographic data is difficult to obtain in western economies; the ability to collect this precise data is even further strained when the survey is of a developing country. With a land area of 300,000 km2 spread over 7000 islands and a domestic population of nearly 100 million people, timely and accurate demographic data requires in-depth, thorough, but quick market surveying. McDonald’s Philippines has been operating in an incredibly competitive market for over 25 years. Domestic competition from the leading local...

...INTRODUCTION Rationale Television is among the most important means of communication nowadays. It is used to communicate ideas to change people’s behaviors by means of several term including selected Filipino Short Film commercials that give values to the viewers. According to McLuhan (n. d.), television is a form of entertainment, and it has educational properties. It teaches all the time, doing even more educating than schools. In addition, according to Shairise (2011) Filipino values, these works call a development of a Filipino philosophy of values so that the ultimate causes and principle to be manifested. Today, the need for the solid Filipino philosophy of values is urgent in order to serve as a fundamental basis not only to speculation of the different sciences but also to the practice for Filipino philosophy of values exist. According to Patton (2006), television commercials have long been an effective means of advertising products. Today they are less dominant in the television landscape due to the rise of TiVo, commercial free cable and other forms of video entertainment. New types of advertising like sponsorship of sporting events featured on television and the placement of products within shows are growing, but traditional commercials still take up significant airtime and account for a large amount of broadcaster revenue. Few television viewers have not been exposed to television commercials. Advertising involves programming that is paid for by companies...

...Filipino Management Style Philippines: Management style tends towards the paternalistic as is often found in strongly hierarchical cultures. However, managers need to be aware of certain strong Filipino characteristics, which underpin personal relationships within the country. Firstly, people are extremely careful to ensure that others do not suffer embarrassment or any sense of shame (hiya) as a result of their own actions or their inability to meet the expectations of others. It is considered to be very bad behaviour to criticise another in public, as this is the greatest insult that can be given. To be openly criticised in public results in a loss of self-esteem and personal dignity. Any attack on an individual's self-esteem may have to be revenged. Therefore, managers are keen to treat subordinates with respect whilst, at the same time, maintaining the dignity of the position of boss. Instructions will be given clearly and precisely and subordinates will be expected to follow those instructions with little or no discussion. Secondly, relationship bonds run deep in Filipino culture and the manager expects loyalty. In return for this loyalty the boss will look after the interests of those subordinates. It is very much a reciprocal arrangement. __________________________________________________________________________ 5 Types of management Filipino Styles Managers are the one who supervise the store or company.

...Filipinos upbeat about financial future By: Doris C. Dumlao Philippine Daily Inquirer 5:16 pm | Friday, June 3rd, 2011 MANILA, Philippines – Six out of 10 Filipinos with either a bank account or credit card consider themselves better off than their parents and are secure in their current jobs, reflecting a generally upbeat view of their financial future, according to the latest annual financial intelligence quotient study by American banking giant Citigroup. The results of the latest Cite Financial Quotient (Fin-Q) Survey released by Citibank Philippines on Friday showed, however, that Filipino consumers’ overall financial quotient or well-being still needs to improve from 48.9 versus to the maximum score of 100. The latest score, which was based on a 2010 survey, showed a slight dip from the score of 49 in 2009 but was much better than 46.6 in 2008 and 47.8 in 2007, when the survey was launched. The Citi Fin-Q for the Asia-Pacific region based on the latest survey was 54.6, up from 52.3 and 50 in the two preceding years, respectively. Citi carried out this latest survey through global research firm Big Picture Research (formerly CXC Research). The latest leg surveyed 5,500 people across 11 countries, including the Philippines. In each of the participating countries, including Australia, China, Hong Kong, India, Indonesia, South Korea, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan and Thailand, 500 interviews were conducted. All respondents were over 18 years of age with either...

...an organization should answer the question on what the company wants to become. Although the vision of MERALCO states its goal to become a world-class company, it fails to identify the type of service the company provides or even, to which industry it belongs to. The vision statement is too vague and too general. The vision should be something that the management and the employees can identify with. Based on the existing vision statement, the company may have difficulty in drawing corporate strategies and work objectives. The revised MERALCO vision statement clearly identifies what the company wants to become and that is to be a world-class distribution utility company and total energy solution provider of choice. Although MERALCO is foremost a distribution utility, it does not negate the fact that it is also an energy solution provider that provides more services other than electricity distribution. MERALCO Mission statement To provide our customers the best value in energy, products and services. Revised MERALCO Mission statement “A total energy solution provider that continually improves the lives of more Filipinos by efficiently delivering safe, adequate and continuous electricity supply” The mission of the company should clearly identify the business of the organization.

...stocks and bonds for retail investors MANILA, Philippines—The Philippine stock market has been suffering from bipolar disorder. Since the start of the year, the mood pendulum has swung from one extreme of successive record highs to the other marked by frantic fund withdrawals that erased this year’s considerable gains. There was a time not so long ago when such wild swings in the stock market’s performance would have caused Filipino investors to rush to their bank or fund manager and convert their investments into cold cash they can hide under their pillow. But local investors have matured greatly since the global financial turmoil precipitated by the US subprime crisis in 2008. Local markets are jittery but calm, and investments in moderate-to-high-risk investments such as stocks and bonds have remained largely intact. This can be attributed in part to the great strides that leading banks and financial institutions such as the Bank of Philippine Islands, the country’s oldest bank, have taken over the past few years to improve the financial literacy of Filipinos and open their minds to a wide range of investment possibilities. Having record low interest on savings and time deposits of around 1 percent has also spurred great interest in financial instruments other than traditional bank deposits. The yield is just too low and not enough to even at least beat inflation, or the annual rise in the prices of basic commodities. BPI is taking advantage of this heightened interest in investments...

...EXTREME PERSONALISM Extreme personalism o sobrang pamemersonal. Ito yong ugali ng mga Filipino na ang mga negatibong komento ay itinuturing na personal na pag-atake sa kanila. Kawalan ng rasyonalidad. EXTREME FAMILY CENTEREDNESS ang kapakanan lamang ng pamilya ang inintindi. From the discussion of the strengths and weaknesses of the Filipino, it is clear that there is much that is good in us but there is also much that needs to be changed. It is also clear that many of our strong points are also the sources of weakness. As people, we are person-oriented and relationships with others are very important part of our lives. We are thus capable of much caring and concern for others. On the other hand, our person orientation in the extreme leads to lack of objectivity and disregard for universal rules and procedures where everyone, regardless of our relationship with them, is treated equally. Our person orientation leads us to be concerned for people and yet to be unfair to someone. Our family orientation is both strength and weaknesses, giving us a sense of rootedness and security, both very essential to any form of reaching out to others. At the same time, it develops in us an in-group that prevents us from reaching beyond the family to the larger community and the nation. Lack of Self-Analysis and Self-Reflection. There is a tendency in the Filipino to be superficial and even somewhat flighty. In the face of serious problems, both personal and social, there is...

...Part I: Theoretical discussion of some concepts on Persuasion 1. Define persuasion and distinguish it from other forms of communication. Persuasion is a form of communication that involves the ability to convince others to change his/her position on a certain subject. But unlike negotiation, which suggests some degree of backing down or meeting in the middle. “Rather than compromising, as in negotiation, effective persuasion will actually convince the opposing party to abandon their previous position and embrace yours (http://westsidetoastmasters.com/resources/laws_persuasion/chap1.html).” In other words, effective persuasion enables you to get other people to willingly do what you want them to do. Looking closely at the definition of Perloff (2003) “Persuasion is a symbolic process in which communicators try to convince other people to change their attitudes or behavior regarding an issue through the transmission of a message, in an atmosphere of free choice.” The two most important component of this definition are: (1) the deliberate intention to change the attitude or behavior of another person, and (2) voluntary compliance, that is, not by force. Therefore, although persuasion is like any other form of communication such that it is a “process of stimulating meaning in the mind of another by means of a message (Putnam, 2014).” it is different from the accidental type since in the accidental form there is no intention to change attitudes or behavior but simply to transmit...

...work on this assignment. Let me give my greatest and deepest gratitude to all of my Classmates, Sir, Ma’am, thank you very much. INTRODUCTION Company Profile Edgar Sia II, then 20 years old, took the entrepreneurial path when he founded Mang Inasal and began its operations in Iloilo City, Philippines on December 12, 2003. The restaurant initially offered chicken inasal to its clientele which was well-received by the Ilonggo people. As time went on, it offered more Filipino-inspired cuisine to the mass market. As such, the driving force behind Mang Inasal’s exponential growth lies in its uniquely Filipino food offerings, its value for money and its serving of unlimited rice for customers. All these factors add up to create Mang Inasal’s distinct brand identity, which has led to its becoming one of the country’s fastest growing fastfood chains. Fast forward to seven years later, the company currently has 223 branches around the country, with its management aiming to expand to 500 branches by the year 2012, with a hundred new stores...

It’s because many business minded people and business related course of students like accountancy want to know what are the differences and similarities between the two business tycoons. We are interested of what kind of management they had and came up with this far. Many people question: what are the characteristics they had that made their success right now. One of the reasons why we want to study this article is to be able for us to determine among the two who is more successful.
