...ritics, record-label hype and American modern-rock radio, which Yorke compares to "a fridge buzzing". This coincides with the soundtrack of the film, with sounds that weave in and out of snatches of interviews, conversations, and songs. Along with this "radio wave" effect is a series of edits and quickly moving shots with stills, slow tracking shots, time-lapse photography, and colour/black-and-white film and video. The documentary opens with video taken from the back of a subway train, along with the track "Fitter Happier" from OK Computer. This cuts to the band members reading off several dozen radio intros. Interspliced with the promotional material is live footage taken from various venues around the world, including the song "Karma Police" on Late Show with David Letterman. Included in the documentary are various video clips of television appearances, newspaper articles, and other mentions of Radiohead in the media. In a clip from a Sky News programme, presenter Kay Burley comments on the video for the band's song "No Surprises", saying "Music to cut your wrists to. [...] It's the most miserable-sounding tune I've ever heard." While watching the video, the programme's music reviewer quips "You'll probably quite enjoy it because he actually drowns at the end". The making of the video is then shown, where frontman Thom Yorke is lip-synching while trapped in a tank of rising water.[2] The world tour that is the subject of the film has subsequently been admitted as a...

...1.If you were a member of the board of directors during the time of the Ok Tedi operations, would you have been in favor of implementing a social accounting and reporting regime in the company? If I was a member of the board of directors during the time of Ok Tedi operations, I would have been in favor of implementing a social accounting and reporting regime in the company. As social accounting is always a beneficial method for a company to maximize their profit and organizational image. Social accounting allows to see where improvements can be made so that an organization can better achieve their aims and values. It provides a continuous record of how effectively organization has developed and changed. Social accounting and reporting would help the Ok Tedi Mining company by giving feedback on how things are going from the range of people involved in the organization. As the 97% workers at the company are PNG inhabitants, it would be easy to look over them fulfill their basic needs and values. Social accounting would also identify the areas where things are working well and where not. To improve organization’s policy and perception ,it is a very appreciable way. Social accounting would help Ok Tedi Mining to work accordance with legal way and social values. Company’s decision would be more just and equitable to less powerful stakeholders. The company would meet the social responsibility and get a good organizational image from the society. The company was...

We will not find a group for you so do not ask. However, you are responsible for the management of the group – so do not choose to work with some-one who you do not know. If you decide you do not like some-one - we will not interfere. If your group becomes dysfunctional we will not interfere – it is for you to sort it out. These groups will be formed by the week starting Monday 10th February so you can start to think about who will be in the group immediately. You must inform us as to who your group members are. In addition we would like you to inform us of the organisation you intend to study. We will not let 2 groups study the same organisation.

...BA323 exam Chapter 1 Review Questions 1. How would you define “organization development”? Answer: Organization development is a series of planned behavioral science intervention activities with the purpose of increasing the effectiveness of the system and developing the potential of all individual members. OD efforts are planned, systematic approaches to change that are carried out in collaboration with organization members to help find improved ways of working together toward individual and organizational goals. 2. How does OD differ from a single-change technique such as management training? Answer: OD represents a systems approach that is concerned with the interrelationship of various divisions, departments, groups, and individuals as interdependent subsystems of the total organization. A single technique such as management training is aimed at changing individual behavior, whereas OD is focused on the larger goal of developing an organization-wide improvement in managerial style. OD uses many different techniques and no single technique represents the OD discipline. 3. Identify and demonstrate the uses of the psychological contract. Answer: Psychological contract involves the expectations on the part of individuals and organizations to which they belong or in which they take part (i.e., work). Each side must understand that such a “contract” exists and that unless these expectations are met, there will be conflict. 4. Explain the difference between pivotal...

It focuses on MUDA elimination What is MUDA? Muda means any wasteful activity or any obstruction to smooth flow of an activity Activity = Work + Muda Expenditure = Cost + waste That is, for each activity there is expenditure and every work there is a cost associated.

...The Goal “The goal” was a good novel to read because it relates to the real world. The novel talks about all aspects of a manager’s daily life. People in management could relate Alex’s problems to their own problems. The novel showed two parts of a manager’s daily life. The first part of the book showed how work problems could affect their personal life. The second part of the book showed me how mangers have to work hard to keep their jobs even if their personal life is not going well. If I had any management experience, I would not bring work problems at home because it could break the family. Those students who are studying management should read this novel before entering the real world of management because it will help them to deal with the problems at work and at home.
