...Future Technology A future technology I would like to become reality would have to be a suspended state incarceration system. Like Star Wars, the use of a technology in a fictional world, allowed prisoners to be frozen and unfrozen. This brings up the idea that it may be inhumane, taking away a person’s life freedom. They will not be given a chance to think about their crime. I propose that it is only used on the most violent offenders or high risk to endanger others or themselves. In Star Wars, Han Solo, a galactic smuggler, was frozen in carbonite and given to Jabba the Hutt as a prisoner and a trophy. I do not condone people being trophies, but sometimes the worst of the worst should be condemned without the ability to do harm. People are clever and just because a violent sociopath may be behind bars, that may not stop him or her from their inability to control the need of inflicting damage upon other people. I do not personally feel people should be able to avoid their punishment if they choose to do wrong. This to me would not delay the inevitable of judgment should their crime be severe to the extent that a death sentence be carried out. Would it be inhumane to take away someone’s ability to think about what they have done? I think it would be against their human rights. It is also just, in a sense that those doing harm to other cannot continue to do harm. Suspended state incarceration may be more expensive than a normal prison, too. Medical examinations would...

...evaluate Allstate’s goal setting process to determine whether or not Allstate has an effective goal-setting program. After comparing the model for goal setting with the steps that Allstate had put into effect, I believe that they do have a successful goal-setting program already established. Nevertheless, when you are trying to make sure that a business is operating as smoothly and efficiently that it can, there will always be room for improvement. One way they could improve is instead of giving, each manage a twenty-five percent of each manager merit pay, and why not break that down to at least five percent for every employee (Hellriegel. 2010). That way even thought the percentage is lower but all the employees would be getting a reward based on the Diversity Index and QLMS. Everyone in the company, no matter what background that that individual may have, needs to feel like what they do for the company is not taken for granted. Managers at this time are receiving a twenty-five...

...Corporate managers and shareholders can sometimes find themselves in a conflict of interest. The goal of being a good manager is being able to spot these potential conflicts and to remedy the situation before a serious problem arises. The biggest conflict between managers and shareholders is going to be money. Here is the most common scenario. A corporation is profitable. In fact, the corporation is more profitable than expected. Therefore, the corporation has a cash surplus, if you will. Managers would want this money as a financial bonus and the shareholders would want this money as a stock dividend. What to do? What to do? Mangers will argue that without their leadership and managerial ability, the corporation would not have been as profitable. The shareholders will argue that without their money, the corporation would not have been able to invest in its growth, and therefore, would not have reached that level of prosperity. Who should get the money? Another situation arises when the managers are also shareholders. This may lead a particular manager to push the opposite way of his/her position. For example, if a shareholder manager would get more money from a stock dividend than from a bonus, this shareholder manager might vote in favor of a stock dividend, not because he/she believes that stockholders should be rewarded for their investment, but because it will mean more money for that particular manager. What if only that one manger is a stock holder? Before...

...workplace by serving as a good manager of people and their unique skillsets. The psychology of human beings cannot be ignored since people are almost certain to act as their nature dictates. In the article reviewed, “The Psychology of Crowds” by Chuck Csizmar, the author explores how herding mentality can act as a hindrance to a manager looking to set them self apart as a leader. Csizmar’s major point was that if you do not want to simply be part of the herd, as a manger you have to learn how not to be a “yes” man. You should get comfortable breaking the mold, because managers who change this mentality are able to make a real difference. The author starts off the article by discussing how when he was a child during recess the children were herded. Then as an adult in the military, during basic army training, drill sergeants crammed them into “cattle cars” to drive them to the different locations for their training. They would often yell “Moo!” to indicate that they felt like a herd. All of these experiences in the author’s life were part of building camaraderie and a spirit of teamwork with others. You feel as though you belong to something and becomes your comfort zone because of that human need to belong. But on the flip side it also caused groupthink and took away feelings of individuality. As the author stated, “the group focus suppresses the individual personality”. The author then goes on to say that when you transition into that role of a manager, you are now responsible...

...Scenario I When implementing a specific communication channel, I would recommend downward communication. Downward communication is most effectively used by group leaders and managers communicating with an employee assigned goals, provide job instructions, and also points out problems that need attention. This communication channel can help the marketing manager be more efficient in setting strategic goals with the team members. It can also get her team motivated by her leadership and wisdom as she relates in detail the task at hand. To convey my strategy to the Vice President of Operations, I would use the upward communication channel. Upward communication is the best choice in the marketing manager situation. This type of communication is used to provide feedback to higher- up’s to inform them of progress towards goals, and relay current problems. For this scenario it would effectively help the marketing manager convey updates on the task that was set fourth. By using key headlines and phrases, the Vice President of Operations could better understand the progress of the team and implement changes if needed. Scenario II The communication channel that the manager of the travel agency should utilize is oral communication. Oral communication deals with either face to face or phone communication. .The manager can make an emergency phone call to the IT group and they can walk her through issue with the password and expiration issue. Scenario III Implementing the face to face...

...Some managers are known for “never having missed a budget target.” Do you believe that is possible? Does such a record suggest that the managers are extremely effective managers; very lucky managers, or devious, manipulative managers? Are such managers to be congratulated (and, possibly or likely, promoted in their organizations) for their budget-achievement record? Almost every business and managers use pre-set performance targets as it stimulates employees, helps evaluate their performance, increases their commitment and reduces the cost of intervention and game-playing. Those targets are defined during the budgeting process which is the third planning cycle and are usually financial. They are typically expressed on an annual basis and are related to the measurement of performance and possible rewards and incentives. Financial targets are fixed in most firms which mean that managers are accountable for achieving their targets regardless to the changing environment during the year. Targets need to be right and set the proper way. They need to be a correct amount of challenge. Indeed, targets need to be achievable otherwise the manager will feel demotivated which is counterproductive. Consequently, achieving a budget target doesn’t only depend on the manager’s performance but also on how the target is set by himself or his superiors. Studies shown that at corporate level, budget targets are set to be achievable 80 to 90 % of the time by an effective management team (Marchant...

Message: (manager channel) “you are being insubordinate” Encode/negative comment Decode/joking Sender/supervisor receiver/myself Decode/misunderstanding Encode/misspoke Feedback- manger, supervisor, myself in office discussion First misunderstanding example took place on one of my last days of work where I was called into the office by my manager. The manager had heard a message from one of his supervisors that I made a negative comment during work. The supervisor contacted the manager and he called me into the work office. I came in, sat down and was told that I was being negative at work that day and that I must be unhappy. The manager proceeded to tell me what he had heard I had said from the supervisor on duty. The comment that I made was somewhat negative yet I had meant it as a joke. The supervisor heard it differently, not as a joke and was upset. So the comment that I had said was misunderstood first by my supervisor and then she proceeded to tell the manager my comment what she conveyed her perception of what I said rather than what I meant. The comment became all misconstrued by the time I went into the office. We all sat down. I was told what I did wrong before I had a chance to give...

Performance reviews can help the employee imporve their development skills and will give the employee a chance to address their own concerns. The primary goal of any appraisal system is performance management. To manage and improve their employees’ performance, managers must explore the causes of performance problems, direct manager and employee attention to those causes, develop action plans and empower workers to find solutions, and use performance-focused communication. Generally speaking a good performance assesment no matter what kind it is,is efficient if it is carried out in a proper manner when everything is openly explained to the employees and agreed with the administration.Performance assesments can be productive especially for those employees who can improve their development skills and with guidence.
