...Singapore Singapore, a country with mixed nationalities and mixed cultures, attracts numerous culture experts and enthusiasts to study on it. Here in this article, the writers would like to discuss Singapore and introduce Singapore to you from the aspects of the general knowledge of Singapore, the factors that influence the Singaporean culture, Lewis’s theory about cultural categories, Hofstede’s theory about cultural dimensions and Edward’s theory about communication styles. Brief Introduction of Singapore Singapore, officially called the Republic of Singapore, the world's busiest port, though physically small, is an economic giant. It has been Southeast Asia's most modern city for over a century. The name of Singapore comes from Malay language, which can be directly translated into the lion city. Frist of all, Singapore is located in Southeastern Asia, islands between Malaysia and Indonesia. The main island is about 42kilometres from east to west and 23 kilometers from north to south. Singapore’s total land area, including that of the smaller islands, is 697.1 square kilometers. Singapore's strategic location at the southern tip of the Malaysian peninsula has ensured its importance, which is greater than its size might seem to justify. Singapore consists of the island of Singapore and some 63 islets within its territorial waters. Like most of Southeast Asia, Singapore is generally hot and humid. It's warm and humid year round, with the temperature almost never dropping...

...severe budget deficits for over a decade. Meanwhile political leaders rise and fall unexpectedly, and special interest groups and wealthy leaders are constantly accused of buying the elections on their behalf. However, issues are more likely to be referred to the voters which are often confused among complex and (sometimes) obscure ballot measures. Moreover, some people say democracy has gone mad, and others agree that California is simply ungovernable. As tense and dysfunctional as California politics may appear, it seriously affects us all and it has to be understood by examining the past and present characteristics of the state starting with its constantly changing population and economy. The persistent implementation of new technologies and the never-ending arrival of immigrants, have transformed California’s economy and have made its society more diverse and multicultural. To understand the process of California today, we also have to comprehend the past about the evolution of the challenging interests within the state. Archaeologists believe that the ancestors of American Indians crossed an ice bridge or traveled by sea through Asia to Alaska thousands of years ago and then headed towards the south by foot. On the other hand, Europeans began exploring Californian lands and its coasts in the early 1500s, and the colonization process began around 1759 when the Spanish...

...world is changing at bullet-train speed – technology, the global economy, increasing regulatory scrutiny, the looming talent crisis, the recognition that mental illness is dramatically affecting the workplace. All of these are having a huge impact on the HR profession. The c-level is finally starting to realize how important your role is. They want you to get out of the day-to-day administrivia - while still making sure everything is done perfectly, mind you. They want you to measurably contribute to the top-line and the bottom line, and help mitigate risk. There are ten major trends that you need to be aware of as your role evolves to meet these challenges. Let’s start with the most obvious. #1. The Changing Role of the HR Professional We need to put the “human” back into human resources. Employees are humans, not commodities, and HR departments have to start seeing them differently. With the current push towards strategies that engage employees, attract top talent, and contribute to the bottom line, this change is imperative. We need to stop whining about being at the table. These days, almost every book or article you read about the role of HR talks about HR needing to be ‘at the table’ or to be more strategic. It’s my observation that in almost every respected company, HR is at the table. So for most HR leaders, the question is not ‘how do you get to the table’. It is ‘now that you are at the table, how do you best contribute to the success of our organization...

Also needed are multicultural policies that recognize differences, champion diversity and promote cultural freedoms, so that all people can choose to speak their language, practice their religion, and participate in shaping their culture— so that all people can choose to be who they are. 65 108 166 55 34 82 3 14 91 51 40 138 29 62 6 99 161 134 114 66 128 72 33 56 175 173 130 141 4 105 169 167 43 94 73 136 144 168 45 163 48 52 30 32 Albania Algeria Angola Antigua and Barbuda Argentina Armenia Australia Austria Azerbaijan Bahamas Bahrain Bangladesh Barbados Belarus Belgium Belize Benin Bhutan Bolivia Bosnia and Herzegovina Botswana Brazil Brunei Darussalam Bulgaria Burkina Faso Burundi Cambodia Cameroon Canada Cape Verde Central African Republic Chad Chile China Colombia Comoros Congo Congo, Dem.

While top executives might enjoy the perquisites found in the executive suite, and separation from workday concerns can foster a broader perspective on the business, the distance between management and workers can come at a real cost: Top managers often fail to understand the ways most employees do their jobs every day. The dangers of this distant approach are clear. Executives sometimes make decisions without recognizing how difficult or impractical they are to implement. Executives can also lose sight of the primary challenges their employees face. The practice of “management by walking around” (MBWA) works against the insularity of the executive...

Introduction Washing Machine is one of the most common household appliances in the UK, with many global brands sharing, such as Hotpoint, Bosch, Beko and LG etc. Whirlpool is one of them with a range of washer and dryer products. Even though these global brands compete in other home appliance sectors as well, washing machine marketing competition seems less fierce than other short life appliances. The market share of Whirlpool's washing machine can be calculated either by value of sales of customer possession. Graph 1(Westgarth, 2014) showed the market shares of several brands in the UK market by value. It is clear that Whirlpool only counted 3%, which is the lowest, only one tenth of the market leader Hotpoint. Graph 2(Westgarth, 2014) illustrate another picture of...
