Aol's Case Summary
It was a good decision because AOL ensured that the employees who get fired, they were “agree” in certain way. I think that this decision considered the employees' situation, because AOL asked to the employees who were willing to quit their job. This decision could reduce a little bit the bad image of AOL. However, having lays off always affects the company’s image, it doesn’t matter under what conditions how this has happened.

    Case Summary: Adam vs. Circuit City

    The main issue in this dispute is does the FAA apply to the employment agreement that Adam signed upon hire? The rule is that FAA governs in this case. Arbitration agreements should be a part of contracts and should be enforceable according to FAA. Since Adam signed a contract with Circuit City that contained an arbitration clause, the analysis is that the FAA states that a signed contract containing an arbitration clause is valid and enforceable. The conclusion of this case is that the FAA does apply to employers as well as employees. For Employers the benefit is privacy and for the employee the benefit is cost.…

    Re organization and Layoff Team Discussion Summary

    The effect of mismanaged LAYOFFs on the remaining workforce and the effects, lack of management preparation, the human condition, and lack of mitigation strategies. We think that the problem with this article is that not enough managers or HR personal, know how to let a person go from their employment effectively. They sometimes don't realize the impact that it has on the other employees morals. Also, that sometimes companies don't take a closer look to make sure downsizing will be the answer to cutting costs like they think that it will. Every HR or manager should be let go in their lifetime so that they know what it feels like. I believe that this statement holds tremendous merit because the best lessons in life are learned through personal experience. In order to adequately communicate life changing messages of sorts, it should be done by a seasoned manager. I will be very surprised if any company has a potential layoff learning path that will coach and train the management staff for these kinds of things. It is imperative to be sensitive to the individual being laid off as this will impact their livelihood significantly. I do agree that other options much is explored such as relocating or wage cuts before making the decision to lay off people.…

    Re Organization And Layoff Team Summary

    This week in class our learning team took a look at how managers often mismanage layoffs. We took a look at what the problem at hand was, why it was a problem, and what some possible solutions could be. We identified that the problem presented in this article is often times managers mismanage the process of laying off staff. Whether it be from a lack of training or not knowing how to deal with people and their different reactions, managers do not always consider the layoff process in its entirety. If not handled well, this process can traumatize the staff that is losing their job as well as the remaining staff. It is important that employers consider the affected employee, the remaining staff, and alternatives to layoffs before the process occurs.…

    Yahoo Case Analysis

    Yahoo Case Executive Summary This case study analysis is on Yahoo! (referred to also as “Yahoo”). Yahoo (Nasdaq: YHOO) is a global internet services company that operates the Yahoo! Internet portal. It provides varied products and content, from email and search to media streaming and downloads. As of February 2010, it is the third-most popular Internet site in the United States in terms of monthly traffic, with visits by more than 120 million unique users every month (Yahoo. Wikinvest). The Case Study includes an Introduction, Company Overview, Company Mandate, Internal Analysis and External Analysis. Critical Findings: The key to revenue growth is via an increase in the monetization of search, and additional fees generated from quality, premium services (retail sales, personal ads, ads for selling or renting merchandise, data storage, photo sharing and various e-commerce services). Yahoo must develop new content and services. With more competitive pricing for advertising combined with the formidable market dominance of Google, Yahoo must do a number of things to enhance its revenues, including vastly improving its search engine technology, its searchbased advertising, beefing up its Internet video-advertising capabilities, pursuing further global expansion (especially into Asian markets), and improving its cross-channel advertising program. Introduction This report is on Yahoo, and considers the Company’s Overview and its Mandate. A thorough External and Internal Analysis is also carried out. The limitations of this report are a result of the fact that the report relies primarily on the information and facts as presented in “Yahoo” as prepared by Gareth R. Jones in 2007, and to a lesser extent, the fact and information presented in “Internet Search and the Rise of Google”, as prepared by Charles W.L. Hill. External references that were used include the Yahoo 2009 Annual Report, and the Yahoo Company profile from Wikinvest.…
