...Models of Organized Crime Jalaine Franklin University of Phoenix CJA/384 Week-2 Mario Honore November 08, 2012 Models of Organized Crime Patron-Client Orgnizations When it comes to models of organized crime there are two organizations that this paper will refer to, the first is the Patron-Client organization and the second is the Bureaucratic organizations. The Patron-Client is a group of criminals that united together to establish connections that would benefit the groups clients later on. They were structured to run with just one leader and then a chain of command that follows. If an order is given it has to come from the leader and then it is passed down through the chain of command to the members. In order to become a member of a patron-client organization everyone has to be initiated (University of Phoenix, 2007). Bureaucratic Organizations Bureaucratic organizations are slightly different than patron-client organizations in the way they are structured. They are structured with rules and procedures. Bureaucratic organizations also have one main leader and a chain of command that leads to their members. Here the lower managers are not allowed to make any orders; all orders must come from only one person. When it comes to conducting business only high ranking individuals can look for new resources and proceed with new contacts but they still have to have the approval of the leader. Similarity/ Differences Both the patron-client...

...country of Turkey. The ad shows a few brief images of what looks to be like a thriving economy and a few industrial images and goes on to simply say, invest in Turkey. Although I haven’t put much thought into investing in another country, and probably never would have, I felt that this this article would be a good opportunity to glance into what exactly investing in other countries entails. So, first off, how does one invest in turkey and why would someone want to? Well, according to the campaign turkey is one of the fastest growing economies in the world, It is ranked 16th of all countries in GDP purchasing power parity, Grew by 7.4 percent in 2005, received 18.2 billion in revenues from tourism in 2005, it is the founding member of the Orgnization for Economic Co-operation and Development, and much more. Some of the country numbers look good but, rather than investing in the country, you would actually be investing in a compilation of stocks of companies that are based in the country of Turkey. Most of the companies trade on the pink sheets, but a couple trade on the New York Stock Exchange. So if turkey is calming to do so well, what about other Countries in the world, certainly Turkey cant be the only economy that is growing at a fair rate, and I think that a better question is why would one would want to invest in another country besides his or her own. A few things to look at before one chooses to invest in another country are the stage of economic growth, potential for industrial...

Accoring to the value network analysis we have done in the previous questions, It’s not suggested for Ryanair to continue its bid after Air Lingus. In fact, the majorties is not optimistic about this consolidation. Shareholders of Aer Lingus formed a alliance and went against the bid. This alliance presented 47% of Aer Lingus shares, including 25.4% retained by the Irish government and 12.6% controlled by ESOT (Aer Lingus Employee Share Ownership Trust). And apprantly, employees of Air Lingus hold a negtive attitude towards its rival: 97% members of ESOT voted for rejection. The orgnization cultures of Ryanair and Air Lingus can not combine well. As the former Chief Executive Dermot Mannion stated, merger of these two companies would be like merging Manchester United and Liverpool football clubs. Besides, Ryanair is facing stress from the European Commission. Additionly, Ryanair and even the the whole industry is facing more and more challenges.

...The Pathway to Organizational Change INTRODUCTION Essentially an organization is the arrangement of personnel for the purpose of achieving a common goal. Organizations are structured, take on functions and responsibilities, and are continuously evolving. As a member of a nonprofit board that is in dyer need of change in order to survive, I chose to devote this paper to the best practices of creating successful organizational change. Although change is never easy, there are many successful organizations, which have learned to deal with and adapt to the demands of the environment through engaging in organizational change. Stephen Michael, a professor of management at the University of Massachusetts, has created a model, which outlines the necessary steps for organizations to take to effectively adapt to the environment. MODEL OF ORGANIZATIONAL CHANGE The first component of Michael’s model is an environmental analysis. The environment poses external demands on an organization, such as opportunities and threats. Opportunities are the trends or possible future prospects, which can aid an organization in carrying out its mission and achieving its goals. For example, if a grant became available that my nonprofit organization qualified for, the grant would be considered an opportunity. On the other hand, threats are the problems and constraints imposed by the external environment that an organization is affected by, such as...

...Transforming an Indian Manufacturing Company:The Rane Brake Linings Case 1. How do you consider the linkages of “Operations Strategy” to its “Business Strategy”? What do you believe are the key links? An organization’s operations function is concerned with getting things done; producing goods and/or services for customers. Operations management is important because it is responsible for managing most of the organization’s resources. However, many people think that operations management is only concerned with short-term, day-to-day, tactical issues. All business organizations are concerned with how they will survive and prosper in the future. A business strategy is often thought of as a plan or set of intentions that will set the long-term direction of the actions that are needed to ensure future organizational success. However, no matter how grand the plan or how noble the intention, an Organization’s strategy can only become a meaningful reality, in practice, if it is operationally enacted. An organization’s operations are strategically important precisely because most organizational activity comprises the day-to-day activities within the operations function. It is the myriad of daily actions of operations, when considered in their totality that constitute the organization’s long-term strategic direction. The relationship between operations and the other business functions is similarly important. The objective of the operations function...
