Succeeding Through Others
... going to be effective in their jobs.
R. Alec MacKenzie, a leading author on the subject of time management, defines managing and supervising as getting things done through people. Delegation essentially is giving people things to do. Thus, by definition the two are interwoven. It is difficult to be an effective supervisor without being an effective delegator and vice versa.
There are many benefits to effective delegation. First, delegation extends the results from what one person can accomplish to what many people can accomplish. By involving other people through effective delegation, we have the potential to ge ...

Government Spending & Budget
... the U.S.
Government would have the first balanced budget since 1969.
There is doubt by citizens that a balanced budget will become
reality. A recent Gallop Poll from January, 1996 showed the budget as the
#1 concern among taxpayers, but 4/5 of those interviewed said they doubt
the GOP will do the job (Holding 14). Meanwhile, an ABC poll from November
reported that over 70% of those polled disapprove of the current
performance by Congress, and most blamed politicians for failure to take
action (Cloud 3709). These accusations of failure to follow through come
with historical proof that Congress and Cl ...

Engineers: The Builders Of Tomorrow
... Computers are now part of our very lives.
Everywhere we turn, computers are used for everything. From doing our
homework at home, to dealing with business in the work field, “The
microprocessors have found its way into every nook and cranny of modern
civilization.”(Life, 32) According to life magazine, We have taken the
computer and made it everyone's tool. (Life, 32) “The computer went from
being under the control of a very privileged group to being available to
everyone. Today, High School kids have more computer power than some of
the most elite three decades ago.” Says Ted Hoffman to Life magazine. ...

Costs In The Long-Run
... most sheets you will print will
be 1,000 per minute. But,by investing in a second machine their printing
company could double its capacity to 2,000 sheets per minute. Once the
planing decision (for the long run purposes) has been made to operate with
two machines, the firm in practice then operates in a new short run
situation with its capacity constrained to 2,000 sheets per minute whether
it employs 5,6 or 10 men.
Decisions in the long-run are investment or planning decisions
relating to the scale of production and decisions in the short run are to
do with choosing an output level within the capacity con ...

... which were; (1) the wide variety of sales jobs available, (2) the freedom of being on your own, (3) the challenge of selling, (4) the opportunity for advancement in a company, and (5) the rewards from a sales career.

The sales personnel career path was also covered. The steps are sales trainee, salesperson, key account salesperson, district sales m ...

Tariffs And Trade Restrictions To Save Jobs
... restrictions do not save jobs, they cost them. The flaw in the protectionist's argument is to view only a tiny part of the economy, imagining how it would be affected by taxing its foreign competitors, ignoring the remainder of the economy, and then concluding that what is best for that small part of the economy must be good for the whole. It's a laughable logic.
Import restrictions can take several forms. Typically, Congress will use tariffs and quotas to protect a domestic firms from foreign competition. Tariffs are a monetary tax on each unit of an imported commodity. Quotas are a numerical limit on the annu ...

Economic Development Of Hawaii
... importance, the economy has diversified to
encompass a large tourist business and a growing manufacturing
industry.
Hawaii's economy has changed drastically since statehood. In
1958, defense, sugar, and pineapple were the primary economic
activities, accounting for 40% of Gross State Product (GSP). In
contrast, visitor-related expenditures stood at just over 4% of
Hawaii's GSP prior to statehood. Today the positions are reversed;
sugar and pineapple constitute about 1% of GSP, defense accounts for
just under 11%, while visitor-related spending comes close to 24% of
Hawaii's GSP.
The movement t ...

Organization And Benefits In The Workforce
... one organization from its competitors. When employees' talents are valuable, rare, difficult to imitate and organize, an organization can achieve a sustained competitive advantage.
In order to "compete through people", an organization has to be able to do a good job of managing their human capital: the knowledge, skills, and capabilities that add value to the organizations. Managers must develop strategies for identifying, recruiting, and hiring the best talent available. Develop these individuals in ways that are specific to the needs of their individual firms, encourage them to generate new ideas while famili ...

The Nature Of Imperialism
... a much stronger economic position which creates situations with huge gaps between these classes. They also control the culture by imposing their own on them. These combine to create social domination as well This position held by the oppressing country causes people to gain realization of the problems associated with these countries in different ways than those of a tyrannical government. Kincaid and Orwell show a common realization of this a certain points in their live. Swift on the other hand, show a realization in a way to speak out against England’s control. They realize it only after time and it comes ...

Floating Exchange Rates: The Only Viable Solution
... of
variability and freely floating rates. Both fixed exchange rates and rates based
on either explicit or unwritten targeting are impossible to maintain, especially
in an era of free trade. Complete monetary unification would be impossible to
bring about without extensive integration and unification of international
governments and economies, a task so vast that it is unlikely ever to be
accomplished. Thus, the only option central banks have is to allow exchange
rates to float freely.
The European Monetary System, which virtually collapsed in 1993, was an attempt
to fix exchange rates within certain tight bands, t ...
