...How a manager’s behavior can impact the productivity of his or her workers There are many factors which affect the productivity like materials quality, people skill, system & procedures, equipment & tool type, knowledge of worker, management skill, but the most important factor is attitude of superior. Appropriate leadership helps create a satisfying work environment conducive to high productivity. Managers’ behavior can help establish a positive open organizational climate, which will help its team members feel safe and be more productive at their job. For Example, if a manager knows that a certain person in his team is not aware of company policies then he or she should send that team member to the company training class that educates a person about company policies, which will give them more knowledge about the company. This will also make the employee feel valuable and he will look forward in coming to work and staying with the company. Unmanaged or destructive behavior of a manager can turn the best job into a miserable one. Subordinates not only loose their productivity and creativity, sometimes loose their workplace engagement as well. Rude behavior of manager creates an atmosphere of mistrust and fear, and as a consequence has a negative impact on productivity and also increases the operational cost. An employee, who is physically present but is under performing due to lack of inner commitment or their mental absence to his or her job, is one of the major cost elements...

...Starting a Language School Reynosa School of English Cites and towns in Mexico bordering the U.S Mexico border have a need for low cost effective English language schools. The desire of Mexicans to learn English for better jobs and more opportunity is very high. A well-run language school, in this area would be of great service to many people, and provide a good entrepreneurial opportunity. This type of business most likely would not make the owner a rich person, but once up and running it could provide a healthy income and not be very time consuming. The product being sold would be purposeful instruction, textbooks, and use of the facility and its resources. At the end of the course the students will be prepared to take the TOEFL English exam (Test of English as a Foreign Language). There are many unregistered language school in the area, and even though they save on registration fees and a lot of paperwork, they leave themselves open to risk of closure by the government, and to lawsuits by unsatisfied customers. The Reynosa Language School will be registered as a stand-alone unaffiliated academy of language arts with S.E.P, (the Mexican national organization in charge of all schools of learning).

This Sunday represents a very important point in the history of the partition of Ireland and the relationship between England and Northern Ireland. 14 people had been shot and another 13 wounded by British soldiers during a protest in the northern Irish city Derry for civil rights and against the British occupation policy on this very Sunday. The Events that took place on Bloody Sunday had been the initial phase for the conflict in Northern Ireland to escalate. As a result, the conflict got worse. Shortly after the declaration of the happenings in Derry, an enraged crowd of northern Irish citizens occupied the British Embassy in Dublin and burned it down. To simplify the enormous amount of the subject matter “Ireland”, in the following lesson, there is going to be a didactical cutback. To begin with, the students are supposed to get to know some basic facts about the divided Ireland. In this one lesson, it is not about representing the topic in all of its details. To a greater degree, it is about approaching the topic particularly with regard to war and peace. The children shall know, what happened on Bloody Sunday and they should be able to classify the events into the historical-cultural background.1 1.2.

...quality teachers. It should be noted that the term “school leader” extends beyond the role of superintendent or principal. Often, assistant superintendents, vice principals, or others are responsible for certain areas and this needs to be acknowledged when reading the strategies that are recommended. Further, some issues discussed here are building level, while others are district level. The categories described in Section Two touch on most aspects of effective school leadership. Therefore, this section will describe administrative strategies specific to those categories. A more in-depth and complete description of those strategies can be found in Appendix 3-1. Following is a compilation of strategies and recommendations that can be useful in retaining quality staff.Because so much is being asked of those in leadership positions, it should be acknowledged that they also need support in order to do their jobs more effectively.

...MANAGEMENT MANIFESTO" GUIDE TO HOOTERS RESTAURANT OPERATIONS EXCELLENCE By James E. Cornett III, with J. Philip Cornett All Rights Reserved Copyright 1998 Created: December 1996 Last Updated 11-04-10 MANAGER RESPONSIBILITIES This memo will highlight responsibilities for the Hooters Manager position. Many duties are for the position of General Manager. However, any "assistant" manager performing these duties well will progress and perform much better than one just merely going through the motions. This set of philosophies and operating policies was derived from the CMC-HOOTERS GENERAL MANAGER MANIFESTO. OVERVIEW There are many responsibilities that will be defined in terms of mechanical responsibilities.... But more important than that, and therefore things that I will list first, are philosophical and attitudinal responsibilities. Most managers can run a typical restaurant. But Hooters is not a typical concept or restaurant operation. It takes a special person to manage a Hooters and an even more special person to be a excellent manager of a Hooters Restaurant. You have to run the restaurant like it's yours and the GM's to own and run, working as a team, and make yourself only settle for being the BEST in town. Nothing second rate. You must know that settling for mediocrity means death to the restaurant, any potential bonuses, and death to job security and career growth. That means always concerning yourself with the guest's perception of what's going...

Sadly, people have substituted satisfying jobs with jobs that they took just to make a living. The problem is that people get scared that they cannot make it with the passions they have. One might think that they cannot make it as a musician so they settle for something else. One might think that they cannot make it as a professional athlete so they settle for something else. I have explored many journals, articles, and other research papers to figure out why that is. As a result I have found that people are born with a fear of living essentially. This...

...RESEARCH/LITERATURE REVIEW OF ISSUES RELATED TO CHILDREN LIVING IN POVERTY _________________________________________________ A PAPER SUMBITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR FS 5833: FAMILY ECONOMICS IN THE DEPARTMENT OF FAMILY SCIENCES TEXAS WOMAN’S UNIVERSITY COLLEGE OF PROFESSIONAL EDUCATION BY SARAH KERAMATI ______________________________________________ DENTON, TEXAS APRIL 2012 Introduction Over the last few decades, the world has drastically changed, and the effect on the family dynamic has been profound. Today, there are more single parents, dual earner couples, and parents with more than one job living in both rural and urban areas in the United States than at any time in history (Miller, 2007). There is approximately one in five American children who live below the national poverty level (Meyer, Cancian & Nam, 2007). In today’s society, many people live below the poverty line and those numbers continue to increase because of our high unemployment rates. The Census Bureau reported that 12% of Americans live in poverty. According to the Department of Health and Human Services, the poverty level in 2009 for a family of four was $22,050. Working parents have no time and their finances are often strained. Welfare reform in the United States may pressure single mothers to be employed even though child care is expensive and they may barely make minimum wage (Miller, 2007). If a child experiences poverty during their preschool...
