Globalization

Directions:

Think about what you have read and seen in the news on globalization. Consider the fact that the clothing we wear, the cars that we drive, the cell phones we use to communicate and the computers we use to work, are each likely to have been manufactured in whole or in part in different parts of the world. While there are still companies and firms that maintain local and national borders, it is almost unheard of in the 21st century that an industry does not maintain an international strategic position.

From an executive’s position, identify and explain at least three challenges and opportunities that might face an international executive over the next five years. Provide possible solutions of how the executive might address these issues in order for their firm to maintain a competitive advantage.

Prepare a 4-6 page paper that describes the impact of globalization on U.S. businesses. In your analysis, please include information about the impact of at least four economic drivers that might

Constitutional construction, the process by which meanings are assigned to words to enable justifiable legal decisions, is a key concept you see repeatedly throughout legal studies. In fact, constitutional construction as created in Marbury v. Madison is the very power of the judiciary. But should the Constitution be open to interpretation? Legal scholars are divided. On one hand, originalists argue that judges and lawyers should look to the original intent of the writers of the Constitution, and not alter from that intent. On the other hand, judicial pragmatics argue that the Constitution must be able to change over time to benefit society as it evolves. Is the Constitution a living document – a dynamic, progressive document open to interpretation for the good of the republic?

 

Review Chapter 1 in your course text, Constitutional Law. Reflect on the structure, content, and balance of the Constitution.

 

Consider whether the Constitution is a living document. Should the Constitution be open to interpretation or is it only words on a page?

 

Review Chapter 1, §1.6 in your course text, Constitutional Law: National Power and Federalism. Reflect on how lawmakers, judges, and public administrators may use theories of constitutional construction (interpretation) to please their constituents.

 

Consider arguments for and against the Constitution as a living document.

ASSIGNMENT 2

Many schools of thought have developed throughout history that propose various theories about the source and development of leaders, how leaders are discovered, and how they can be identified. Early leadership theories focused on the qualities that distinguished leaders from followers; subsequent theories looked at other variables such as situational factors and skill levels.

ANSWER THE FOLLOWING QUESTIONS BELOW THOROUGHLY

1.Evaluate the similarities and differences between two approaches or theories of leadership:

PICK ON ONE WITH TWO THEORIES TO WRITE ABOUT…MUST PROVIDE SIMILARITIES AND DIFFERENCES BETWEEN THE TWO THEORIES

-The trait approach and behavioral theory

-The Situational Leadership Model and authentic leadership theory

-The transformational and transactional leadership theories

2. Begin by providing a brief summary of the two approaches or theories of leadership you have chosen to analyze. Then, examine the common characteristics and differences between the two approaches or theories you selected.

Use a minimum of two scholarly sources to support your post. Cite your sources properly in APA form throughout the paper and with an reference page to support your sources.

One of the products that Company W makes is snack foods. The research and development department of Company W has developed a new formula for one type of snack food that is cheaper to make than the current formula. They want to test the new formula with consumers. They want to see if consumers can tell the difference between the old and new formulas. You propose to conduct this test and analyze the results in line with WidgeCorp’s approach to gathering statistical data and use it to form business intelligence decisions. You first need to explain the process to senior management at Company W. You advocate using an unbiased sample of consumers in their test, so that Company W is randomly selecting people based on the following: age; whether or not they have kids; where they live; how often they buy snack foods; and whether or not they already buy the current product.

Prepare a presentation that addresses the following:

List at least 3 qualitative attributes of the snack food about which they might want to ask consumers. Make sure at least 1 of them is nominal.
For each attribute that is ordinal, assign names for the endpoints of a 5 point rating scale.
Explain the difference between nominal and ordinal data.
Explain how nominal and ordinal data relate to a rating scale.
List at least 2 quantitative attributes of snack food that the scientists might want to measure.
Explain the difference between interval and ratio data.
Include in your presentation the concept of business intelligence.
Include in your presentation the difference between a population and a sample.
Note why it is important to avoid bias when conducting research (see note below).

Note: Give 2 examples of possible populations for this test.

So I haven’t had ANY time to get my algebra work done through MYMATHLAB.

CH 2, 5, 8, 10, 11, 12. All sections including homework, quizzes, and exams.

It’s a lot of work henceforth the price I’m willing to pay.

However, one condition is that I MUST see progress every day.

I’m not going to wait a week to see that barely nothing is getting done.

If it’s been a day or 2 and there is not at least one chapter done, or grades are failing, deal is off and I will dispute you.

The due date I put will be extended as long as you’re getting the work done in a timely manner, but the LAST DAY is the 14th.

Who is a mathematician that can get all this done accurately and on time?

You are the manager of Acme Fireworks, a fireworks retailer who sells fireworks, puts on ground display fireworks, and large aerial display fireworks. The company started in the owner’s garage two years ago and now has 15 employees that you manage. The company started as a sole proprietorship, and the owner has never changed the entity. The owner has informed you that the company has received inquiries from several large businesses wondering if the company could create several fireworks displays on a regular basis. The owner told the inquirers that the company could fill such display orders, and a price per display was agreed upon. It was discussed that most of the cost for a fireworks display is for skilled labor, insurance, and the actual service of setting off the fireworks. No other details were discussed. The owner is anticipating that new employees will need to be hired, but he is worried that if the large orders for fireworks displays do not continue, the company will not have the funds to pay the new employees. The owner is now considering changing the business entity, but he does not know what entity to form or how to form it.

The owner has asked you to do the following:

Determine if the contracts with the businesses will be governed by common law or the Uniform Commercial Code (UCC), and explain why.

Analyze whether the owner formed a contract with the businesses, and apply the five essential elements of an enforceable contract.

Explain the potential personal liability to Acme Fireworks if a spectator is injured by a stray firework from a fireworks display.

Discuss the different employment types and relationships relevant to agency law, and analyze the advantages and disadvantages of each type specific to Acme Fireworks.

Explain why Acme Fireworks should not operate as a sole proprietorship. Recommend a new business entity, and provide rationale to support your recommendation.

For each task, be sure to analyze the relevant law, apply the facts to the law, and make a conclusion.

Unit IV Project
Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment Project
Be sure to read all of the instructions. There are two documents to be prepared and submitted.
1. Following steps 1-11 of the Hazard Analysis and Risk Assessment Guide in the course textbook (pp.171-174), develop a risk assessment for a serious workplace hazard with which you are familiar, or use Addendum D to Chapter 11 (pp. 202-206) to help you select a hazard. Evaluate the hazard and its associated risks, and then complete the Hazard Analysis and Risk Analysis Project form (click here to access this form). To complete the Initial Risk Assessment and Post Control Risk Assessment sections, use the following codes based on the Risk Assessment Matrix in Table 11.10 (p.180) of the textbook:

SEVERITY:
1–Catastrophic
2–Critical
3–Marginal
4–Negligible

PROBABILITY (Likelihood of Occurrence):
A–Frequent
B–Probable
C–Occasional
D–Remote
E–Improbable

RISK CODE:
H–High
S–Serious
M–Medium
L–Low

All sections of the form must be completed. Note that the “Post Control Risk Assessment Measures” section reflects the risk assessment AFTER applying the additional control measures.

2. In a separate document of at least 500 words, explain the reasoning behind how you filled out each section of the form. Use references as needed to support the discussion.

3 Upload both the completed form and the discussion document. Be sure that the discussion document is in APA format with a title page and a reference page. Information about accessing the Blackboard Grading Rubric for this assignment is provided below

Select a community other than the one where you live, and develop a risk assessment. Address the following in 4–6 pages:
Outline the risk portfolio of the selected community (e.g., flood zones; high-value terror target).
How did you compile that list?
What other risk portfolios and assessments for the community exist (e.g., local hazard mitigation plan, DHS assessments)? Explain.
Describe the critical facility or system that you selected, and describe why it is critical to the selected community.
What are the possible or probable outcomes of the risks that you identified as occurring as they relate to the whole community and, in greater detail, to the specific infrastructure you selected? Explain in detail.
What are the possible or probable cascading effects at the local, regional, national, or international level should one of the risks occur and affect the critical facility or infrastructure you selected? Explain in detail.
Be sure to reference all sources using APA style
