... o A formal reporting structure is an important factor in making the communication flow smoothly and enabling productive relationship. From the beginning, the reporting structure was not formal. Peterson was assigned to report to Hardy, who had no experience in the industry and had different incentive than Peterson’s. Hardy, hence, could not make effective decisions and provide guidance to Peterson and became the barrier between Jenkins and Peterson. o Group VP Peripheral Vascular position was vacant. This created a void in the communication between Erik and upper management. Hardy seemed to be disengaged or no experience in the field o Product Manager position being vacant added enormous pressure on Erik. o Interpersonal and organizational relationship with colleagues. Peterson had relationship issues with Scott Green and Cantor who managed the Key Opinion Leaders. Establishing relations is a critical component • Team Conflicts o Team Issues: Conflicts between Andrews and Jones o Lack of respect between team members o James Wallet and Burns o No guidance to the team members from Erik o Peterson was not trying to adjust and build relationships with employees, specifically with Andrews o Peterson was unable to avoid office infighting that impacted the schedule o Salary Issues – Created tensions between team members although Melissa agreed for a pay cut • Relationship with external...

...Financial and Leadership Strengths and Weaknesses of the Utah Symphony The financial strengths of the Utah Symphony will now be addressed. One financial strength of the Symphony is the amount of endowments it receives. There are two groups, I and II, which receive endowments. The Utah symphony is in group II and that group gets an average of $8.8 Million per year (Delong & Ager, 2005, p. 4). Another major strength would be the amount of revenue brought in by performances. The 2000-2001 season saw revenue at over $3 million and the projected amount for the next season is over $4 million. The total amount between contribution, endowments, and revenue is over $12 million for the 2000-2001 season and is projected to be over $13 million for the next (Delong & Ager, 2005, p. 15). The financial weaknesses for the Symphony are almost as much as the strengths however. The major weakness in this organization is the salaries and benefits for the musicians. Because they are under contract, the musicians have a set salary with periodic increases. The expense for this is over $10 million (Delong & Ager, 2005, p. 15). This ends up being a huge expense and leaves very little in the way of profit. Another item that adds to the financial weakness is the fact that ticket prices are projected to only increase by 1% while expenses are expected to increase by at least 2.5% (Delong & Ager, 2005). With expenses increasing by a greater rate than income, this will have a detrimental...

...Mt. Everest Case Study Review Jackie Cheng, J.P. McIntosh, Josephine Richardson, Stephen Winfree Harding University Abstract The 1996 Mont Everest tragedy, no doubt-ably, has marked terror in the lives of the survivors and climbers alike. The analyses do a fantastic job of sifting through the different situations that the climbers came across on the mountain and the possible reasons for the outcomes of each situation. In retrospect, effective and ineffective leadership skills are displayed in various situations, prudent verses imprudent decisions are targeted, the trust and faith in each climber, and in oneself, is identified and the planning and timing of the hike is examined. Overall, each situation has been analyzed from different angles and suggested decisions have been implemented to help the reader in collecting a better understanding of why this climb ended up becoming so disastrous. Introduction The journey to Mount Everest was a tragedy and a sorrowful one at that. A journey that was expectant on great victory turned to a grave catastrophe. A reflection of what happened nearly two decades ago reveals likely flaws taken at the time. Rob Hall and Scott Fischer were the leaders of two of the largest commercial expeditions on Everest in the spring of 1996. In the years leading up to the expedition, the climbing seasons had been tame and had drawn much less experienced...

...Capital Punishment – For Or Against Scott Cameron Phase 4 Individual Project ENGL125-1203B-08 Dana LaMantia I’m sure you all have your thoughts on Capital Punishment, and whether you’re for or against it. I’d like to share a story with you about Donna Payant, a New York State Corrections Officer, and her killer. Lemuel Smith was an inmate where Donna worked; in 1976, he was sentenced to death for murdering a store owner and his employee, then kidnapping and murdering another woman before he was caught. However, his sentence was later converted to life in prison, sealing Donna’s fate five years later (Irvine, Kincaid,2003). My aim today is to share a few ideas that enforce capital punishment as an effective means of deterring heinous and horrific crimes, providing comfort for victims and their families, and saving the legal system money. Let’s start by taking a look at deterrence. Capital punishment can be looked at from the aspect of deterrence, which is discouraging individuals who may have the intention to participate in homicide. It is also a reference to the criminal, denoting that he may not commit a crime or participate in homicide. Deterrence is summed up by the deterrence theory (Siegel, 2012); this theory requires that individuals weigh the costs and rewards associated with different actions. It’s based on the premise that individuals will choose those actions that translate to greatest reward at lesser costs. The theory also proposes that crime...

...Satisfaction among Non-Academic Employees at a University Ryan E. Smerek*,† and Marvin Peterson† ................................................................................................ ................................................................................................ This study reports the results of a survey of 2700 employees in business operations at a large public, research university. The analysis tests Herzberg et al.’s (1959) well-known, duality theory of motivators and hygiene factors and the impact of personal characteristics and job characteristics on perceptions of the work environment and job satisfaction. The results offer inconclusive support of Herzberg’s theory although the work itself is the strongest predictor of job satisfaction after controlling for both personal and job characteristics. The study concludes by discussing both practical implications, for those in leadership positions in a university, and theoretical implications for researchers interested in exploring job satisfaction in a higher education context. ................................................................................................ ................................................................................................ KEY WORDS: job satisfaction; quality of worklife; work climate; administrative staff. THE PROBLEM AND RESEARCH QUESTIONS This paper studies the men and women charged with the day-to-day operations of a university—human resource...

...PROJECT: “LOSS CAUSATION MODEL” HISTORY, THEORY & APPLICATION Fall 2014 Student: Mariana Ifteni INTRODUCTION/ HISTORY Companies suffer a considerable loss due to accidents, and it is reflected in paying insurance cost, repair of the damage machinery, slowing down of production, additional charges on training of new specialists, and so on. Thus, a special system of accident investigation or, in other words, loss causation investigation is widely in practice. Accident investigations are conducted not only to prevent material loss, physical injury or corrective measures – the point is also to assure that the injured worker gets all material compensation necessary, or, instead, to oppose false insurance claims. Thus, inadequate safety program is reflected in the lack of workers training, necessary inspections of the equipment and so on. Inadequate safety program standards are evident when workers do not understand the peculiarity of the safety program and how to apply it, that is why insufficient compliance to standards occurs. Before a loss occurs (Injury, illness, damage, loss in process), there are series of events that take place with a root cause that begins this series of events. The root cause is called a Lack of Control (Inadequate standards, lack of compliance for preparedness, knowledge and skill training, etc). This leads to a basic cause (or personal factor) such as lack of knowledge, stress, inadequate capabilities. This in turn leads to an immediate cause (substandard...

...De La Salle – College of Saint Benilde Taft Avenue, Malate, Manila Feminism and International Relations Submitted by: BALIGOD, Katrina Angelica A. LS201 Submitted to: Sir. Francisco Noel Fernandez III 20 October 2014 I. Introduction Hans J. Morgenthau, one of the leading proponents of the approach known as Realism (also known as power politics), claims that universal standards of morality cannot be an constant guide to IR because there is an "ineluctable tension between the moral command and the requirements of successful political action." He argues that state actors must think and act in terms of power and must do whatever it takes to defend the national interests of their state. J. Ann Tickner, commenting on the primacy of power in Morgenthau's writings, explains that what he considers to be "a realistic description of international politics is only a picture of the past and therefore not a prediction about the future", and proposes what she considers to be a feminist alternative: a world in which state actors think of power in terms of collective empowerment, not in terms of domination over one another, could produce more cooperative outcomes and pose fewer conflicts between the dictates of morality and the power of self-interest (Art & Jervis, 2005). Emergence of Feminism Most of the early feminists in IR were IR theorists, researchers, and policy practitioners, who read syllabi full of scholarly articles by mainly or only men, and seen IR as a scholarly place...
