In this week’s reading Chapter 11 Teamwork, I learned how teamwork and the contribution of teams to a company can contribute to the success of an organization. In this paper it will discuss how the Sandwich Blitz can use teamwork to allow Dalman and Lei more time to devote to making their business more successful and take it to the next level. This paper will also discuss how a team can address small problems with the existing operation with good results. These results will allow the owners to spend more time on helping their business grow.…

While visiting all of their operating locations has heard how successful they have been using the team approach. If Dalman and Lei would assign managers under them they would be able to be more equipped to handle the daily activities of Sandwich Blitz. The self-managed teams would require training to be able to determine what type of training would help the handle the daily responsibilities. The difference between a group of people working for and team,is that a group will interact and do a task but will not necessarily work together to achieve goals or achieve performance improvements and a team will work together as one to trust each other and accomplish the goals. Once they are trained they will be able to reach their goals. This would also allow Dalman’s involvement in visiting each individual organization could be decreased. The self-managed teams should be able to hand manager operation concerns. Lei will able to stay back and completely concentrate on Sandwich Blitz’s financial matters without being disturbed. “Teams can enhance speed and be powerful forces for innovation and change” (Bateman, 2013). When it comes to monitoring and implementing the company’s policies Dalman and Lei can train the self-managed team so each of the employees can understand what they are supposed to do. Not only will the employees no the company’s policies they would know the positives and the negatives of the company. Executing what Dalman and Lei’s knowledge to Sandwich Blitz work processes would help he teams solve problems and develop improvements. A self-managed teams can help Dalman and Leis Sandwich Blitz increase team productivity, such as cross training the employees of various positions within the company. This type of training increases the flexibilities when there is a shortage in shifts. In conclusion, the Sandwich Blitz needs…
This case was based on George Tenet and the decisions he made within the CIA, successful and unsuccessful. Tenet served under the Clinton and Bush administrations from 1997-2004. During the Clinton administration, his main focus was to rebuild the CIA from its lack of morale and budget issues. Surprisingly (in my opinion because of his lack of experience), he was successful in the beginning process of rebuilding. Unfortunately for him, after Bush was elected the 9/11 attacks happened and his success started to decline. The decisions he made during the Bush administration and his lack of focus led to the demise of the DCI and the weakening of the CIA. I think his popularity during the Clinton administration got to his head and he just got sloppy during the Bush administration, but his decisions tremendously affected the way CIA is run today.…

Some people with relatives that have undergone plastic surgery presume that it automatically increases a child’s confidence by making them feel better about their appearance. Jill Weinstein, the mother of Jen Selter(child who underwent rhinoplasty/nose job), asserts her opinion on plastic surgery: “Jen is so happy now... I would say to parents ... it’s[plastic surgery] the greatest gift you could give to your child. What greater gift is confidence and to help them feel happy in who they are?”(qtd. in Coffey).…
Ethics, Morality, and Integrity all have some of the same elements that defines a person character. Being trustworthy leads to other elements of integrity. Such as, helping to better the community and respecting authority as a Parole Officer shows honesty. Being fair is another element which shows integrity. How can you be a Parole Officer, but doesn`t treat everyone equally? Third, being able to take responsibility for your own actions and personal growth as a Parole Officer shows integrity, as well. If you basically blame all of your failures and lack of progress on others around you then that shows your character and you cannot exhibit integrity with others and your career if you cannot be honest to yourself. Ethics as a Parole Officer could…

Academic Integrity is an impressive-sounding word. The word can refer to a broad spectrum of actions, most of the time we use it to mean “don’t plagiarize,” or don’t pass off other’s ideas and information as your own.
