...FINAL (SUMMER) INTERNSHIP REPORT BY EMMANUEL EKIBA BAGENDA On secondment by the International Human Rights Program (at the University of Toronto Faculty of Law), I served as an intern with the Uganda Human Rights Commission (UHRC) during the summer of 2006. My internship lasted from May to August and, during this time, I worked under the immediate supervision of Mrs Christine Birabwa Nsubuga (who heads the Legal and Tribunals Section of the UHRC) and Mr Remmy Beauregard (who is the UHRC’s Institutional Development Advisor). Substantive Engagements The main project on which I worked during the internship was a comparative analysis between the UHRC’s legal framework and that of other national (and provincial) human rights commissions in a range of countries, including Malawi, South Africa, Canada, and Ghana. The primary aim of all this was to highlight ways in which the UHRC’s legal framework could be buttressed in a manner that facilitated the promotion of human rights in Uganda. The working hypothesis, in other words, was that the UHRC could overcome some of the institutional and substantive challenges it faced by drawing upon the normative frameworks of its correspondent institutions in other jurisdictions. Background work on this particular project had been done by the University of Toronto Working Group on Uganda, and had yielded an initial framework of responses to be refined by concrete experiences acquired during the internship. In refining the initial report...

...Guidelines For Summer Project IMT Institute of Management Technology GHAZIABAD Guidelines, Procedures and Rules for Summer Project This manual gives guidelines, procedures and rules for the Summer Project. Objective The objective of having a Summer Project Report is to allow the students to organize and report the learning gained in the program and the summer project. The Summer Project Report should be a substantive contribution to the knowledge through integration of literature review and methodology developed pertinent to the understanding and resolution of management problems, and the empirical work done therein. The Summer Project Report should demonstrate competence in using or developing a model or a set of hypotheses, collecting and interpreting data, reaching conclusions and drawing implications for managerial practices. It should also highlight the impact of actions in one area or function, on the other area or functions in the organisation. The recommendations made in the Summer Project Report should be in both quantitative (costs and benefits) as well as qualitative terms, as far as possible.

It is also the output which may stand as testimony of the student's demonstrated skills and potential in the managerial arena. Topic...

...Banking Power-Pack – June 2015 BANKING - 2015 JUNE June 1 • IRDAI removes cap on business from one insurer for banks. IRDAI has done away with the capping of insurance business from one insurer by a bank in its latest draft. As compared to the previous draft that mandated banks to cap business from one insurer to 50%, IRDAI has removed this cap. This would mean that those insurers without a bank partner or promoter would still have to wait longer to get business from bancassurance. The regulator has said that an insurer can have tie-ups with up to three insurers in any line of business-life, non-life or health. Background Presently, banks are allowed to tie-up as a corporate agent with one life, one non-life and one standalone health insurer. Hence, insurers who entered the market later did not have any bank partner. • FinMin, RBI set up panel on reducing cash transactions. To reduce cash transactions in the economy and boost the usage of cards and point of sales (PoS) terminals, the Union finance ministry and Reserve Bank of India (RBI) have set up a committee to look at ways to encourage use of plastic money. The committee has representatives from National Payments Corporation of India, State Bank of India and ICICI Bank. Background RBI data at the end of December 2014 showed 1.05 million PoS machines in the country, whereas there are over 500 mn debit cards and at least 20 mn credit cards. In 2013-14, according to a Boston Consulting Group report, the number of cash...

...Goal Inventory Assignment In ten years, I want to be working in the human resources department at Texas Instruments. I specifically want to be an HR Business Generalist because it is more closely tied to the business and business strategy at Texas Instruments than some of the other human resources jobs there are. This position seems like it would be a great fit for me because I am extremely interested in the business strategy of a company and how the people working for the company can directly influence how successful a business is. I want to be in Dallas, Texas at Texas Instruments’ main office where I can get the most enriching experience. However, after I have learned as much as I can at the Dallas office and when I am comfortable with my position, I want to move to the Houston office because Houston is where I grew up and it is where I want to raise a family. In five year, I want to be working in the human resources department at Texas Instruments. I want to start out in their Compensation position within the HR department. My major is in accounting and I like to work with numbers, so I believe the Compensation position would be a good starting point for me. I have also been advised that this position is a great HR position to begin with, especially if you want to work your way to the HR Business Generalist position, because you learn a lot about the company and their financing. I would like to be in the Dallas office, because this is Texas Instrument’s main office...

...Key Organizational Behavior Audrey Locke is a summer intern for a very successful North American company of Brussels and Bradshaw Investment Bank. As it seems in most organizations, the new guy, or girl in this case, is often subject to treatment that can be misunderstood as abusive. Those that are in positions within an organization see this as ‘weeding out the week’. From the view point of Audrey and other past interns, it can be seen as unnecessary and disheartening. For those that are intent on making a future in investments, it seems that you are going to have to learn how to adjust. In fact, Blake Cooper, one of the managing partners of the Toronto Office with Audrey is performing her internship at stated “We cannot afford to get soft on our people by listening to analysts whine and complain about each other. Once you start, where does it stop? They’ll figure out how to get along on their own if you let them. These are professionals. We are all here to make money and the only way to make money in this business is to work together. Those that want to get ahead will recognize that – and those are the people we want at Brussels and Bradshaw.” (Hitt, Miller, Colella, 2011) Issues and Recommendations It seems that this situation of being stepped on is not going to change. Since this seems to be a companywide pandemic, it is going to take a ton of pressure from the top and directive to stay on course to change the fact that summer interns are the workhorses for the office space...

...I am applying Business as my major degree this time. Since I am a very energetic and challenging-like person, learning and working in competitive environment are very appealing to me. The reason for applying business major is very simple. It is no doubt that I have huge passion towards business after I took many business-related courses. In addition, I had gotten more familiar with these kinds of stuff after I did some internship, which provided me a very good opportunity to build my confidence in pursuing business-related jobs after college. In particular, I feel interested in real estate, marketing, and finance areas. Not only I have been almost done all the courses in business major requirement, I am participating in JBS Real Estate Development this summer, which gives me a glimpse and affords me a substantial connection between the college and the work after college. Despite what many believe, business is not only about its glossy brochure, its fancy product, and its precise financial report. It extends to its employees, customers, the media and even the general public. Honestly, I am a kind of person who is eager to work with people, communicate with people and even negotiate with people. Last year, I declared Psychology as one of my major and almost done all requirements as so far. I certainly believe that Psychology and Business are a good combination in knowing how to work with people, and how to get into social networks well in the future. Besides my good academic...

...Brussels and Bradshaw In response to the case study, Brussels and Bradshaw is a well-established financial institution that offers their clients competitive and innovative solutions for their community and work environments. The banking institution offers a summer internship to bright and driven individuals. The internship includes 14 weeks of very intense training and long hours. Interns are paid $20,000 for the contract. During the screening process, out of all the possible candidates Audrey Locke was selected. Audrey has some experience as an assistant, assurance analyst and financial planning analyst. Brussels and Bradshaw is operating in more than 25 countries globally; this case study takes place in Toronto.

Working 70 and 80 hours per week or possibly 120 hours will put a major burden on anyone, especially someone new to the working environment. Audrey is excited with her internship and very eager to learn. She is assigned a mentor and buddy by the business development manager, Kelly Richards. Kelly has 10 years of experience. Although associates consider her human resources, Kelly’s job is strictly administrative. Audrey is never introduced to her mentor and her buddy, Christine Page is very...
