...Pepsi Co. After reading through the articles pertaining to Pepsi and their current search for a new CEO, the question can be raised as to whether or not the company should hire from within or search elsewhere for a suitable replacement. When a company is deciding whether to hire from within the company or to choose an outsider, there are both positives and negatives that come with each side of the decision. Choosing an insider that has already worked in the company has its advantages such as conveying a positive message to other employees throughout the organization. For instance, promoting a hirer level executive to fill the CEO roll with show all current employees that if they work hard and dedicate themselves to their profession, they may be able to get promoted to higher-level positions. Secondly, by promoting within a company, a sign of relief goes out to the majority of the current executives who are working for the company because when an outsider is hired for the role of CEO, often they will bring their own management team with them thus taking away jobs from the current employees. Lastly, promoting from within an organization ensures that the knowledge of the corporate culture remains intact. When an outsider is hired, it takes time for that person to learn the ins and outs of an organization whether it is finding out whom the all-star employees are or just what the culture of the work place is like. In essence, hiring an outsider equals a longer learning period,...

...To describe the constraints and limitations under which marketers operate. In this assignment I will discuss legal and voluntary limitations and constraints for marketers. The legal limitations and constraints on marketers There are many legal limitations and constraints on marketers, these are: The sale of goods act 1979, The consumer protection – distant selling – regulation, The data protection act 1998, The consumer credit act 1974 + 2006 and The consumer protection from unfair trading regulation 2008. The Sale of goods Act 1979 - The sale of goods act is an act enforced by the United Kingdom’s parliament. The act regulates the English and commercial law in respect of goods that are bought and sold in England. Marketers must be conscious that their products match descriptions and pictures when selling online or designing packaging, if it doesn’t consumers could sue the company they work for or sue them which would either result in disciplinary action or a dismissal P45. The goods sold must be of good quality and in good working order. Marketers must let customers know of any defect prior to the selling of the product. These goods must also be fit for purpose, should an event occur where a product was not fit for purpose (such as a waterproof jacket that isn’t waterproof) through no fault of the customer, a full refund must be issued. Since 1979 the act has been modified, the 2003 act says that should a customer find fault with a product sold they are entitled...

...of modern day America can relate to the women of Gilead in the manner in which they are treated. In Gilead, many women were merely, to the government, slaves to be used for domestic practices: childbearing, food production, housekeeping, and leadership. Treatment of these women was harsh; consequences of going against Gileadean laws could equal deportation to a dangerous nuclear waste land, mutilation, or execution, among other forms of physical punishment. Nowadays, in modern American women’s lives, many injustices are experienced. These can come in various forms, such as trivialization in the classroom, receiving less pay than their male counterparts for the same work, exclusion from sports opportunities, or harassment by conflicting messages in the media and advertising. Women in America in the modern era have been and are being impacted by the discrimination of sexism every day in a range of aspects of their lives, degrading them and placing value not on their humanity, but rather their functionality, similarly to the mistreated women in the society of Gilead. Oppression for both the women of Gilead and modern American women occurs in the classroom, in varying methods. In a study conducted by Donna Alvermann and her colleagues, it was found that school girls often “qualified or apologized for their contributions to classroom discussions,” therefore diluting the power of what they had to say (Evans). In addition, a study of high school physics classes was done by Barbara Guzzetti...

...Stopping Malicious Behavior What is the problem? Can the field of fraud detection (and cyber security in general) be improved by new technology and approaches? If companies develop a program that searches for unusual activity by looking at risk factors then they could improve how they detect fraud. Since a lot of fraud detection is rule based, they have to develop a system that addresses the gray areas of their rules. For instance if a bank is looking for someone who transfers over $10,000 for one transaction in a day as an alert, then what happens if they separate the $10,000 into smaller payments? What happens if the malicious person makes sure to deposit just under $10,000 to avoid having alerts for their illegal actions? Addressing different patterns of new gray flavors of activity can help address management issues, overlapping issues and detection issues. Also developing better anomaly, link and predictive analysis can help guide fraud detection into greater improvements. Anomaly analysis consists of being able to identify risk using certain behaviors when someone doesn’t do things the normal way. The main issue with anomaly detection is there is a great challenge on managing the detection systems, certain behavior that you think is odd may be normal to a certain group of people, and that it is hard to make generalizations on new data. Link analysis develops relationships between different kinds of entities. Links can be made with how entities relate to each...

...Narcocorridos Alexander P. Myers HY 377 Dr. Steven Bunker November 7, 2013 The facets of Mexican life that can be studied through the corrido are practically unlimited, and these ballads can be used as historical documents of important aspects of modern Mexican and Chicano life, as well as of the daily trials and tribulations of the pueblo the popular or common classes. Narcocorridos have and can be a positive to Mexican culture. The same cannot be said about its growing influence in American culture. In respect to historical significance of traditional Mexican corrido influences, narcocorridos provide a view of public/popular opinion not otherwise found in the media or other sources similar to the role of rap music in the U.S. Originally before modern technology or radios, corridos were passed along by word of mouth through family, friends, and traveling workers. Although the subject matter has changed, corridos remain rebellious, political, and an oral form of historical narratives. Corridos are often intensely serious, and they have always mirrored social and political concerns. They serve as repositories of both myth and history for a people not often served by mainstream newspapers and other media. Corridos are deeply ingrained in Mexican and Chicano culture, and are a standard form of marking major events in both public and daily life. In the beginning, Mexican corridos mimicked traditional Austrian and German Polk ballads and also had Spanish roots...

In his description of the situation, the “me too” approach to hotel management led to poor service, false representation, and a pricing plan that does not match the value of the hotel. The hotel industry in Guam has important statistical information that will lead to an effective analysis. Over a period of years, Guam has experienced a boost to its tourism industry. The year 1967 was the beginning of that upward trend. that includes support from the United States. However, the decline of the Japanese economy in the 1900’s and onward severely damaged the economy of Guam. How many of us can attest to looking up a product or service online, seeing its respective pictures, only to find out that the actual product is dissimilar to the original picture? The excess room inventory in the hotel industry paired with the decline in the general tourism of Guam could only lead to failure. In other words, supply greatly outnumbered demand. Additionally, applying a “Me-too” approach to hotel operations in such conditions can have limited success. Research has shown that piggy backing on others in the industry can often lead to failure, because companies employing this tactic rarely see the need to differentiate with a product or service. It can be assumed that a “me too” company’s sole intention is to capitalize on the success of...
