...Part 2 (limit: 750 words): Using insights from the course, write a personal action plan to meet future leadership challenges. Write about your strengths in leadership situations, possible weaknesses that you need to be aware of, and how you intend to develop your leadership capability. The following report is part of my annual Performance Planning and Review [PPR] process (including self-assessment) and describes personal strengths and weaknesses along with leadership development needs/goals as a manager and executive. This report is organized in terms of seven dimensions per my current employer’s guidelines; each dimension addresses a different component of leadership performance in terms of own aspirations and goals. The 70/20/10 model for learning and development equally applies to leadership development. This formula suggests that 70% of my learning about leadership comes from on-the-job experiences, working on tasks and real life problems. Coaching from my boss and others accounts for the next 20% and the final 10% comes from formal class-room and reading development. Leadership Dimensions | Dimensions Description | ADJUSTMENT | The degree to which a person is calm and even tempered or conversely, moody and volatileHigh scores seem confident, resilient and optimistic. Low scores seem tense, irritable, and negative | Strenghts | * COMPOSURE: Tend to remain calm even when provoked, or faced with deadlines and heavy external pressure. I am generally perceived...

It is 75 year old and touches every second Indian’s life, out of three. Its mission statement is- “add vitality to life” (<http://www.hul.co.in/aboutus/introductiontohul/>) One of the most effective tools for analysing external environment of an organisation is PEST ANALYSIS. 1.POLITICAL FACTORS: These factors affect the organisation in many ways. Depending on the situation, these factors can generate opportunities for organisation or may be disadvantages too by imposing taxes and duties. Indian political system is going through various changes. In India, FMCG market can be categorised into rural and urban. Rural sector is mainly dependant on agriculture as its main source of living is with generally lower penetration levels and more unorganised part. Whereas, urban sector has high penetration levels and more spending power. That is why rural sector was the main area of focus for government for development in the recent past. There were many schemes run by government to generate employment and major investments were made in infrastructure development. Because of all this, there was an increase in disposable income level in rural sector and hence rise in FMCGs demand. (<http://www.hul.co.in/>) HUL has its own set standards to deal with political issues. It applies its rapport and experience to...

...Human Resources Fundamentals • Administrative HR - Suppose you were starting a brand new organization. You probably wouldn't have an HR Department because your organization is just getting underway. Nevertheless, as you begin to grow, you and the managers you hire will need to be concerned about five broad areas that involve people, staffing, retention, development, adjustment and managing change. Together, these five broad areas constitute human resource management or the HRM system, and much of it is administrative. The first area is staffing, which begins by identifying the work to be done and the kinds of personal characteristics necessary to do the work. Determining the numbers of people and the mix of skills that you'll need to do the work, and then recruiting, selecting and eventually promoting qualified candidates. Retention of your new employees is more likely when you do three things well: Reward employees for performing their jobs effectively, ensure harmonious working relations between employees and their managers and maintain a safe, healthy work environment. Development focuses on preserving and enhancing your employees' competence in their jobs by improving their knowledge, skills, abilities and other characteristics. HR specialists call these competencies. Adjustment is concerned with compliance with federal and state laws, as well as with your organization's policies, for example, through discipline, and business strategies such as cost leadership. Finally...

...THE FEASIBILITY OF A NEW SIT-DOWN RESTAURANT IN VENTURA Presented to the Faculty of the Agribusiness Department California Polytechnic State University In Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements for the Degree Bachelor of Science by John Wassil Winter 2011 Chapter 1 INTRODUCTION Fast food chains have grown at an incredible rate over the past couple of decades. There seems to be a McDonald's or Burger King on every street corner. Fast food offers people in a rush an inexpensive way to grab food whenever they want. In the United States, fast food restaurants accounts for 46.7% of the total food service industry while sit-down restaurants have 39.3% (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2009). This forces sit-down restaurants to target a different market, people that are looking for pleasure and a relaxing experience. The food services industry is considered to be the most known industry in the world. Sitdown restaurants typically offer full menus, which include appetizers, entrees, sides, desserts, and all types of beverages including alcohol. Most restaurants will have a host or hostess that will greet a person as they walk in and show them to the table that they will be sitting at for the duration of their meal. Sit-down restaurants typically will have trained chefs to cook and prepare the meals and servers that will completely take care of any needs that there will be while eating at the restaurant (Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2009). It is important to have honest and...

...vital economic tool because it can be employed to regulate the economy, to invigorate economic growth through the granting of fiscal incentives as a principal aim of implementing tax policies and to provide funds for development projects (JeyapalanKasipillai, 2005). The contribution of direct taxes and indirect taxes to government revenue in 2009 amounted to RM78.375 billion (49.4%) and RM28.129 billion (1 7.73%), respectively. This shows that taxation contributes more than 60% to the Malaysian government revenue. Recently, the Malaysian government established the implementation of goods and services tax (GST) to replace Sales Tax and Services Tax (SST). The GST plan was first raised in 1988 but at the time it was considered unnecessary because the sales tax and services tax was effectively working. Therefore the plan was put on hold until it is deemed appropriate to be implemented. The GST was also included in the government policy such as in the Malaysian New Economy Model (NEM). In the NEM recommendation, GST would act as an important component in reforming the source and distribution of revenue in Malaysia because of it swider tax base....
