...Properly Managing Assets and Resources (Student Name) Your State University When managing assets or resources you need to focus on the entire organization. The substantial assets and human resources found in an organzation and how they can be better employed will be my focus. Companies have struggled for years running the business as usual and cannot get where they want to be due to a number of factors. They may have inadiquate budgets to perform the required activities under their current adminitration. Some have a surplus of inventories and excess works in progress that is treated as a resource instead of a liability. Most employees are over worked because of excess work that has no value added to production. Workers cost far too much and take too long to complete required work. Companies utilize huge inventory spaces due to work that adds no value and the inability to complete work in the scheduled time. If the problems are investigated and there are processes put in place to prevent the previous procedures from returning. The saying,"old dogs can’t be taught new tricks" is vastly fading away. Companies need to achieve important continuous advancements and achievements by eliminating any wasted resources and time. Why is it that after decades of doing business "it’s the way we’ve always done business" is a rule under review and propositions of change will not be swept under the rug? Companies waste thier physical assets and human resources. Dr. William E. Deming...

My Career Portfolio A career portfolio consists of several tabbed sections that are in a 3-ring zipper binder. This career portfolio should be taken to interviews. My career portfolio is not complete in that it only consists of career goals, a resume, skill areas, certifications (diplomas, degrees, licenses, and awards), work samples, academic plan of study and references. The items of the career portfolio which still need to be collected are the statement of originality, work philosophy, letters of recommendation, work in progress, community service, professional memberships and certifications, and faculty and employer biographies. There is still quite a bit of research left in order to complete the portfolio collection. I expect the time frame to complete this project to be indefinite at this time. My work and school schedule keep me unbelievably busy, along with all my other responsibilities. I do not see myself having very much research time available. The two advantages I think of for having a career portfolio are that it is proof of your skills and abilities to the employer, and it will give you an edge over the other candidates. Being prepared with a career portfolio will assist you in the interview in locating any needed documents as well...

...Resources Progress is defined as a forward or onward movement towards a goal or destination. The film “Surviving Progress” explains the progress humanity as a whole has made and the progress we continue to make. Filmmakers Mathieu Roy and Harold Crooks show how much progress humans are making and how we have become into a progress trap with too much progress eventually leading to disaster and dead ends. No matter what humanity is always making progress in our civilization, economy, technology, and more; only problem, we’re making progress non-stop creating an eventual crash and destruction of Earth’s natural resources. Ronald White argues that humanity is in what he calls a “progress trap” which he explains “I came up with the term progress trap to define human behaviors that sort of seem to be good things, seem to be, to provide benefits in the short-term, but which ultimately lead to disaster, because they’re unsustainable.” Humanity as a whole has reached what is considered a “progress trap” many times already and is in the process of falling into deeper “progress traps” than ever with technology and our economics. In the past, as an example given by Ronald White, Hunting turned into a dead end when our ancestors were hunting to make their living. They went from killing one mammoth at a time and struggling to do so, to killing a whole heard of mammoths by running them over a cliff. This pushed them into a “progress trap”. These new hunting techniques had been great progress made...

After your approval of my project, we have encountered a couple problems but other than that everything is going well and all the work will be done by November 19, 2007. This memo reports the progress report, the problem we have encountered and the conclusions. Background As you know, FL Studio is a digital audio workstation which can record, mix, create, and edit sounds. It has a sequencer that makes it possible to create beats from patterns, which is the foundation of any track. The program currently used by the firm is fairly complicated and hard to use. This results in poor production. By using FL studio, we can create exact tracks which we intend to make. In my research I found that our competition has increased. Other similar companies have also upgraded their software to assist them in meeting their clients’ demands. I however, found out that none of them are using this software. This software is very helpful for our music industry and can give us an upper hand against our competitors. Project...

...Progress I'm a work in progress; you could even say we all are works in progress. As there are different kinds and types of animals, there are also different kinds and types of us human beings. A lot of things have changed on our planet Earth since God created it, and we, the mankind, are for certain not an exclusion. Many are even of the opinion, that we are the beings who have changed the most, and to tell the truth, I would not disagree to it. In Denmark, we have gone from being hunters and gatherers to farmers, building up towards the modern society and then further on to our current post-modern society, where we, the new generation, now, with all the different options and possibilities we have, focus a lot more on developing ourselves as individuals based on what we like to do, instead of what is expected and needed of us to do. The outcome of this has been, that our point of view on working has changed a lot, because we have invented all this technology that can replace some of the work we need to get done, and which contemporary also has caused a great increase of unemployment. It's not that we do less work, no; we still work a lot, and we work hard, but now, it's on a more science-based area, where the goal is to develop technology more than it already is. The work we do is on a complete other level than the pre-historical hunters and gatherers and it does not consist of the same basis, meaning that we now mostly work for our own satisfaction and curiosity rather...

...Work in Progress: Monster Story The 10 liner description: What monster do you have in mind?? On Wednesday, we will begin our discussions on monsters in earnest. And as we progress with this unit, the monsters you create (with your partner-- more on this later) will come alive, and start moving. But for them to do that, they need first be conceived. For this assignment, you will write a 10 liner description of the most fearful creature you can imagine. You can write about its physical deformity, its malicious character, its habitation, etc. Just make sure that your monster is uniquely yours (although it may be a combination of the existing monsters out there, or a remake of such monsters). This is a P/NP assignment, which means that if you fail to turn it in, there is a -5pt penalty. You can list the 10 traits here, below: 1) sharp teeth with two 1 foot fangs 2) 3 feet tall 3) lives underground 4) fire-breathing 5) black eyes 6) long sharp claws 7) human like behavior 8) hunched back 9) has no soul 10) very strong and powerful Later when you've partnered up you will compare the two 10 liners and decide what traits to keep and what to discard. Of course, the monster may shape-shift and evolve as you progress with your short story. This is absolutely fine. I'm not holding you down to the 10 liner. Just have fun with it. Be inspired by your own fears. And make it impossible for me to sleep. That, is the goal of any writer creating a...

...spread his team through different continents so they will be able to work closer to the customer and immediately respond to regional problems. He made a wise decision in choosing a diverse and multitalented team. Greg James holds weekly conference calls in addition to the face to face meetings once a month. With the size of his team and their location in the world, effective communication is still a work in progress. Judging from the HS Holdings drama, James must be very attentive to the issues posed by having a global team in four major countries. There was a lack of empathy from James side in regards to a lot of issues the team faced. It’s important for the manager to hold constant conversation with his team members to better understand their daily work performance. His approach however seemed a bit lackluster and ineffective. Issues like odd team meeting timings and misunderstanding because of different pay rate, would have never blown to such an extent if James had addressed them in their infancy. Prior to James’s trip, he was not in touch with his team or their progress. Upon his return, he instituted several team meetings, one on one meetings to bring him closer to his team and to develop team closeness and trust. It is important that he creates a sound environment to foster effective communication as that is of paramount importance in smooth sailing global team relationships. 2. What are the issues that are causing the sub-teams from each country to difficulty integrating...

I take care of my family and protect the ones that I love. I try my hardest to please everyone but I get stepped on. My sister would say I am to kind for my own good but I am a hard worker and I do not give up very easily. 2. What “constructive suggestions” would others offer to help you improve or change? My sister would offer me a back bone, to stand up when need be especially to my family, also more of what she would call a better leg to stand on. My friends say they like me for who I am and would not change it at all except better taste in men. 3. What do you most like about yourself? I like most about myself I am a very caring person, I do my best to make everything right or be there for someone. I am currently taking care of my grandmother while the rest of the family kind of expects me to with my background and I live here. I do it because I love her and no one else will they don’t care. 4. What do you most dislike in yourself and would like to change? What I dislike about myself the most, that I have a big heart. People with big hearts seem to get pushed around and stepped on or is that just me? It seems the bigger the heart the easier to break in my life. People take for granted that I am kind and loving and use it to their advantages. 5. What beliefs to you have about yourself that...
