...“Order winner and order qualifier are criteria defined by managers within their operation strategy plan to gain competitive advantage in the market”(Encyclopedia of Business, 2nd Ed.) Order Winners and qualifiers are used to measure and to assure managers in relation to the products or services that they provide. Order winners are issues that directly and significantly help products win orders in the marketplace. People buying the product or service regard such factors as key reasons for buying or using the product or service. An Order qualifier is the characteristic of a companies product or service which are set in order for a customer to consider the product or service for either purchase or use. The Order winner is what we would consider as the winning factor, giving that extra factor to win the customer or service over that of other competitors. Companies must provide qualifiers to enter the given market and become equally as good as the competitors in order to keep sales and service levels before being able to enter with a winner in order to be that one step above another competitor. “The success of a company depends greatly on Order-winner factor“ (Slack, Lewis 2008). It is one of the most important issues that pushes and persuades people to take or use a product or service from a company. The order winner issue tends to be at the top of the list for companies and the managers that make these strategic plans, because it seems to benefits the given company...

The Winner is always has a solution; The loser is always has an excuse. The Winner says “Let me do it for you” The Loser says “That is not my job” The winner sees an answer for every problem; The Loser sees a problem for every answer. The Winner says, “It may be difficult but it is possible.” The loser says, “It may be possible but it is difficult.” When a Winner makes a mistake he says,”I was wrong” When a loser makes a mistake he says, “It wasn’t my fault” A Winner makes commitments, A loser makes promises. Winner has dreams. Loser has schemes. Winner is a part of the team. Losers are apart of team. Winners see the gain. Losers see the pain. Winners see possibilities. Losers see the obstacles. Winners believe in Win/Win. Losers believe, for them to win someone has to lose. Winners are like a thermostal. Losers are like thermometers. Winner chooses what they say. Losers say what they choose. Winners use hard arguments but soft words. Losers use soft arguments but hard words. Winners stand firm on values but compromise on petty things; Losers stand firm on petty things but compromise on values.

...y z zinc WHY WINNERS WIN INTRO 2. Who are these winners? Are indls born winners? No winners are not born they are made. Recent researches on the winners conducted by Stanford institute concluded that only 12% of our success depends on knowledge and technical skills and 88% on positive attitude, enthusiasm, persistence and determination 3. Why do winners only win? What is that quality that separates a winner from a loser? Can everybody win? This brings me to various types of people. There are four kinds of people in this world. They are:- (a) Who watch things happen. (b) Who simply wonder what has happened. (c ) Who criticize what has happened. (d) Who makes things happen. 4. Winners are the people who make things happen. They have strong desire to achieve and they achieve what they desired. Someone said that all men are created equal, but it is what they do afterwards that makes the difference. Winners believe that every cloud has a silver lining. Some thing good can come out from every situation 5. I will tell you a story of a rich man who wanted to asses his two sons. To one of them he gave a pile of presents and the other a pile of cow dung. The one with the gifts started complaining about the missing gifts, but the second one sold the cow dung and started a business. The second boy is a winner; he felt that some thing...

...(management consultants) They claimed that varying managerial actions and attitudes could account for the difference between winners and losers (and finding out what the drivers are of high performance is possible!) In seach of excellence. But this put a problem on the table, instead of solving one. (later: data was FAKE). With each new effort, methodlogical issues are reconsidered. New data became available and the finding became more defensible and robust. What’s the unit of analysis? Where does it reside? (individual, team, business unit, corporation) Who gets called a winner? Finding the fittest entities across the business landscape and subjecting them to close analysis. Who stands tallest Depends on yardstick (!) Agreed: success=cash Cash comes to businesses in various forms. Links between strength and organizational culture and economic success. Success in terms of annual growth in net income, average returns on invested capital and appreciation in stock prices.

...In the very highly competitive world that we live in today there are two different types of people, the winners and the losers. Webster’s dictionary defines a winner as someone or something or wins a prize or a contest. To some extent I think that’s true, but in my opinion a true winner is a person who never loses but only gets beat from time to time. Eventually, winning becomes almost second nature to someone who is a true winner. It becomes all they know how to do, but a true winner never loses. I know if you’re reading this you’re probably thinking that there is no possible way that if a person competes that he will never lose, but it is possible. You see a true winner is someone who might get beat from time to time, but he never loses....

...An inspiration. What is it you may ask? Well, to me an inspiration is something or someone you can look up to. An inspiration is someone who is worth a thousand words. An inspiration is someone who is a great role model for others. An inspiration is someone who has achieved a great number of goals. My list could go on and on, but what I am trying to get at is how Maya Angelou is my inspiration. She has achieved worldwide fame as a poet, author, actress, historian, civil rights activist, producer and director. She has published ten best selling books and numerous magazine articles, winning both the Pulitzer Prize and National Book Award nominations. Maya Angelou has also survived many hardships. She remembers the good times and the bad and writes about them both. Maya Angelou's sad life experiences inspired her to write works of poetry about herself. And today she is one of the most acclaimed female black authors in history. Maya Angelou is the true definition of an inspiration to me. Maya Angelou is considered to be one of the most talented people alive. She has made a difference in so many people's lives. Her personal outreach for women, especially in Africa, has helped change the live of the less privileged. She gives her heart and soul to those in need. Maya Angelou is also a very talented and gifted woman. She has had great success in professions as an author, actress, poet, historian, civil rights activist, producer and director. She lectures throughout the U.S. and abroad...

...Maya Angelou is one of the most famous African-American women figures. As well as an inspiring figure as a poet, Maya is also well known to have been a great actress, educator, historian, author, playwright, director and producer (mayaangelou.com/bio/). At the time of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., Maya was also inspired to become involved in the civil rights movement. Mary has many famous works; however she is very well-known for her autobiography: I know why the Caged Bird Sings. In that autobiography, Mary pours out the first seventeen years of her life, then writes about her years following in another autobiography. Maya Angelou's former name was Marguerite Ann Johnson. Maya got the nickname from her older brother bailey, who had a speech issue and couldn't pronounce Marguerite. He started calling her Maya because he read a book on Mayan indians, and the name stuck (achievement.org/autodoc/page/ang0bio-1). Her parents divorced when she was only three years old, and she and her older brother Bailey were sent to live with their grandmother in Arkansas three years after Maya was born. Maya grew up in the south during a very racist period and the traditional african-american courtesy and respect . She had a hard young life, and writes in her autobiography, "I know why the caged bird sings" how she remembers being more literate than her own mother (Angelou 91). After living with her grandmother for a few years, which her and her brother would call "momma", Maya and Bailey went...

...! ! ! ! There's so much technology and physicality to music – its a human thing. I'm blessed to have been born into an era where everything started evolving and I'm yet to see everything that does anything. Virtual machines that are able to manipulate our thoughts and inspire us to come up with new inventions everyday. Worlds greatest composers such as J S Bach , L V Beethoven, Mozart relied on the simplest system to compose the worlds greatest music from which the musicians in this era are inspired and influenced by. Even though a pencil and a paper was a bliss, musicians around the world today doesn't rely on it anymore. Ever since the birth of the computers the music industry has taken its strings to another level. Hollywood composers such as Hans Zimmer, Nick Glennie-Smith, and Brian Tyler has created the best scores that we have heard in the hollywood film and music industry today with computers and electronic hardware even-though The fact still remains the same. I couldn't agree more that the classical composers were more smart and had more original music than this era. What surprises me is that the living man with the most Oscar nominations, John Towner Williams (born February 8, 1932) an American composer, conductor and pianist who is considered one of the greatest film composers of all time. In a career spanning over six decades, he has composed some of the most popular and recognizable film scores in cinematic history such as Star Wars, Jaws , Super...

...Unicef saved Audrey Hepburn's life as a child in Holland at the end of the war just as it was going to save the Sudanese boy's life, and that is one reason why she is so proud to be a Unicef ambassador. It is the repaying of a very personal debt. But there is a deeper connection with the war years, one which brings her to London this week, not only to raise money for Unicef through public performance, but to pay tribute to the unquenchable spirit of the child in trouble through the life of one individual, Anne Frank. On Thursday, at the Barbican, Audrey Hepburn and Michael Tilson Thomas conducting the London Symphony Orchestra will be presenting their version of the life of Anne Frank through the words of her diary and Tilson Thomas's specially composed music. It is a project which has returned both Tilson Thomas and Audrey Hepburn to their own youth through their identification with the undisguised turbulence of Anne Frank's own adolescence, one in which every emotion was intensified by incarceration and fear of capture. This is powerful material enough, but for Hepburn the connection with Anne Frank is even more personal. When I met her to talk about it she was perched in a plush Claridges suite. I was expecting sophistication, elegance and a polished film-star performance. I had been told that she was every good thing from hard-working, generous and thoughtful to charming and downright divine. This undersold her, making her sound bland. The woman I met surprised me by...

...Unit 2 Narratives Assignment Tammy Rich Kaplan University HU300 – 01 The story that I have chosen is “The Tortoise and the Hare”. The story is about a hare and a tortoise who were good friends. The hare would boast of his speed and the tortoise one day challenged his friend in a race. The confident hare took it easy, but the tortoise ran steadily, and he won the race (Saloni, 2012) The moral of this story is that even if it seems that you are not the quickest or the best at a particular task that may not be the case. If you do your best from the beginning to the end and you will know where you stand. It may prove that someone who seems more skilled at something may not be and slow and steady wins the race (Saloni, 2012). In the fable “The Tortoise and the Hare”, the writers’ concentration isn’t on the Tortoise’s confident in taking on a bully such as the Hare, but emphasizes the foolishness of the Hare’s over-confidence. Growing up hearing this story, I now realize that many people have good natural abilities in regards to race, size, and statues; not knowing what our opponent is capable of. Just as in “The Tortoise and the Hare”, the hare from the start is confident of his ability to defeat the tortoise because of his characteristics and abilities. Thinking his hasting would cause him to get ahead, the hare finds himself behind. A wise man once said “haste makes waste” and in this case it is so true (Milleray, 2013). Storytelling has long held an important role...
