Presented in the case study will be conflict assessment, situation analysis, and a recommendation based on data evidence gather by collaborative effort of Team 2. Conflict Assessment To define the major conflict issues between Joe and Kim it starts with relation of formality versus informality in the approach to managing and representing More Power Inc. First, there is the company’s 30 day return customer product return policy to which Kim does not practice strict adherence. Is this autonomy or defiance? Next there are the handshake deals with vendors. A handshake is an incomplete contract that increases the chances of misunderstanding or uncertainty of the agreement between two parties. This can even be a violation of the business’s Code of Conduct as a conflict of interest. Then there is the interaction and treatment of employees that is impacting overall morale and productivity of the team. In evaluating the conflict resolution components it was taken into consideration the concept of knowing one’s...

...Research Essay What is Bureaucratic Control? Describe the elements of Bureaucratic Control and provide examples of Bureaucratic Control that can be found in your university ? Bureaucratic Control in its current context refers to management attempting to control employee output through reward and punishment in order to ensure employee work performance and conduct matches the managers expectation and follows defined company agendas’ which are in turn dictated from above by directors. This method of control is centralised, and relies heavily on administrative techniques and established hierarchies within the company to communicate its policies to employees. This essay will provide a context of the development of bureaucratic control, highlight its key factors and supply some relevant examples of this type of control at Victoria University. Bureaucratic management was first proposed by German sociologist Max Weber (Williams & McWilliams, 2010) as an alternative to the monarchical system of promoting by virtue of birthright. His definition of bureaucracy was to effect control of an organisation through knowledge. As such, the premise of this thought was to promote on merit rather than heredity to ensure maximum output through the utilisation of the most qualified rather than the most connected (in this circumstance, ‘connected’ refers to the relationship one has with those in charge). This idea of fairness versus favouritism would increase overall efficiency towards the realisation...

...MGMT 367: Business Law II Week 8 Discussion Assignment - 2 Parts Part 1 Chapter 44 covers real property law, but to fully appreciate the limitations to your real property rights, you need to understand the 5th Amendment Takings Clause (see pp. 114-118). The textbook provides excerpts from the Kelo v. City of New London opinion, but to fully appreciate this landmark case, I’ve provided a separate link to the Court’s opinion and a video that explains the case and its ultimate outcome. After reading and viewing the video, share with the class your viewpoint on whether eminent domain be used for “economic development” and whether you agree with the majority or dissenting opinions. I think it should be on a case –by- case basis. In the video we found out after Suzette’s years of struggle she finally lost her case, but the intended development never was completed. People were forced out for no reason. Using eminent domain the government can take from the poor and give to the rich. I understand that the Takings Clause is supposed to ensure that just compensation is paid. What is just if you have improved the land and held it for a lifetime? I would not want to be put out and have to start over for what a government entity calls just compensation. I think there are plenty of places that can benefit from “economic development” but “eminent domain” should be the last resort, due to this I agree more with the dissenting opinions in this case. When roads or bridges are needed...

...MGMT 570 ISSUE PAPER ARE PROFITS THE ONLY BUSINESS OF BUSINESS? CONSUMER NOTIFICATION AND PRODUCT RECALL BY KOLAWOLE OLAYINKA 03/30/2013 ARE PROFITS THE ONLY BUSINESS OF BUSINESS? Supply and demand is at the root of everything, where exchange of goods and services is involved between producers and consumers for mutual benefits. These mutual benefits involve an exchange that provides value to the consumer and profits to the producer. It is not at all farfetched to think of these as basically human characteristics. At the beginning of a spectrum is the producer and at the end of the same, is the consumer. They interact with each other and with the governmental law regulating their transactions. In this economic system, what will be produced is determined by what will yield the greatest profit. From the readings, Milton Friedman and Robert Almeder recognize the merits of a profit-driven economic system. They do not quarrel over the importance of profits. But they do quarrel over whether or not business firms have obligations beyond making profits. A consumer may be a pet owner who feeds and provides care for a beloved animal, a doting grandparent who buys toys and clothes for the grandkids, an individual who wears contact lenses or hearing aids, a patient who buys prescription medications, or vehicle owner. Should a consumer have certain expectations from the suppliers and producers of the products that he buys? Can we trust corporations that they will not produce...

...THE FUTURE OF FORECLOSURE LAW IN THE WAKE OF THE GREAT HOUSING CRISIS OF 2007-2014 Clinical Professor of Law Notre Dame Law School Judith Fox 54 WASHBURN L. J. (forthcoming, 2015) Notre Dame Law School Legal Studies Research Paper No. 1504 A complete list of Research Papers in this Series can be found at: http://www.ssrn.com/link/notre-dame-legal-studies.html This paper can be downloaded without charge from the Social Science Research Network electronic library at http://ssrn.com/abstract=2573203 Electronic copy available at: http://ssrn.com/abstract=2573203 The Future of Foreclosure Law in the Wake of the Great Housing Crisis of 2007-2014 Judith Fox* ABSTRACT As 2014 came to an end so, perhaps, did the worst foreclosure crisis in U.S. history. On January 15, 2015, RealityTrac, one of the nation’s leading reporters of housing data, declared the foreclosure crisis had ended. Whether or not their declaration proves true, the aftermath of the crisis will be felt for years to come. During the crisis it is estimated more than five million families lost their homes to foreclosure. Federal, state and local responses to the crisis changed laws and perceptions regarding foreclosure. Despite these changes, we end the crisis much the way we began---with a nationwide foreclosure system mistrusted and disliked by lenders and consumers alike. This paper examines the responses to the crisis in an effort to determine what worked, what did not, and where foreclosure law should...

...Enablers of Exuberance Jennifer S. Taub Sept. 4, 2009 DISCUSSION DRAFT Enablers of Exuberance: Legal Acts and Omissions that Facilitated the Global Financial Crisis Jennifer S. Taub1 I. Introduction This paper explores certain legal acts and omissions that facilitated the over-leveraging and near collapse of the global financial system. These ―Legal Enablers‖ fostered the boom that enriched a class of financial intermediaries who followed a storied tradition of gambling away ―other people‘s money.‖2 These mechanisms also made the pain of the bust disproportionately felt by the middle class and poor while shielding the middlemen who created the problems. These legal Enablers permitted the growth of a shadow banking system, without investment limits, transparency or government oversight. In the shadows grew a variety of highly leveraged private investment pools, undercapitalized conduits of securitized loans and speculation in complex credit derivatives. The rationale for allowing this unregulated, parallel system was that it helped to create innovation and provide liquidity. The conventional wisdom was that any risks associated with a hands-off approach could be managed by the ―invisible hand‖3 of the market. In other words, instead of public police, it relied upon private gatekeepers. A legal framework including legislation, rules and court decisions supported this system. This legal structure depended upon corporate managers, counterparties, ―sophisticated investors‖ and the...
