    I had an opportunity to speak with Steve Mosley (Upper Right Leadership) an executive coach referred to Mountaire from Drew Stewart (our Profiles International Partner). Steve was formerly with Altel and has a breadth of coaching experience though he has only been in the business of executive coaching since 2009. Certified by the World Wide Association of Business Coaches he is familiar with the CheckPoint 360 and PXT though his work is primarily focused toward executives in small to mid-sized companies (under 500 to 5000 employees). Based upon the conversation, I believe that his expertise would be better suited for a Director level role rather than anyone on the executive team.…

    If upper management is interested in exploring more technologically advanced and interactive toys within my core brand, I would approach the process with an open mind, including a creativity aspect to accomplish this goal. Researching both current and past successes and failures with technologically advanced toys within the company would be the first step. To eliminate competing with yourself or repeating errors made in the past, research is always key (Ferrell & Hartline, 2014, p. 16). Next, creating an outline of the toys we currently produce and evaluating them to determine the best possible results for implementing the new technology. While doing so, this would be a great time to develop our target group for sales. Are we creating a product for teenagers, or tweens? This information will prove vital in determining the features to include or exclude during the development phase. While reviewing the current inventory, designers would be asked to assist with interfacing modifications to current products, to determine the pros and cons of making adjustments. With safety being the number one priority, we must ensure that the product maintains its highest level of standard. If deemed that the modifications will not be suitable for our core brand, I would create an alternative solution to the request from upper management, which may involve an entirely new product. If deemed suitable, the next phase would be testing the product and then preparing for the marketing campaign. Establishing an effective marketing campaign is a…

    After being deployed for six months with three months left in the tour, emotions in my organization are intensified, while moods tend to be those of boredom or stress. These factors greatly affected a recent issue I had with my supervisor. A company safety training day was mandated in order to decrease safety violations; the problem was that the training had to be attended by everyone at the same time. The company consists of four different elements, all on different schedules. The requirement to conduct the training in the middle of the day interfered with my subordinates’ sleep schedules and mission preparation time. Consequently, from the start of the training, my subordinates and I were frustrated and upset.…

    The world is filled with decisions to be made both in business and from a personal standpoint. All too often however, these worlds cross and an unethical decision could cause a scar on the company that could last indefinitely. In order to teach ethical behavior to the employees of a company one must first demonstrate the behavior themselves. Develop a culture of honesty, trust, and accountability that others will follow and in turn use in their own daily lives. A good standard Code of Ethics within any company will also place in writing the expectations a company has of its employees in the treatment of others, customers and co-workers alike. It is important to recruit, hire, and train management staff that will strictly abide by a Code of Ethics, employees are likely to follow their director and display the behavior shown to them in a presumed means of keeping their jobs intact. Good working strategies on teaching ethical behavior within the company are:…

    Han vs. Rome

    The Roman Empire seems to have upheld monarchy, aristocracy and democracy together in Rome. Rome was divided into two classes, one being the Patricians, which were the small group of aristocratic people and the second being the Plebeians, which were the commoners and everyone else. Rome was an innovator in that they created the first known body of the senate, chosen by the elite class to represent their decisions. The senate was supposed to set policies for the consuls and elect 2 people as chief executives of Rome, one to take care of Rome domestically and make sure that everything as going well inside the empire and the other to conquer new territories and fight wars. Each consul had a one year term check and a senator was not able to serve as consul again after serving for it once before until 10 years later. There was also a position of dictator in Rome when it faced terrible danger and a person would have to step up and take control of the army to face whatever enemy was opposing them. Yet, once Octavian or Caesar Augustus took over, he made the laws and the senate was no longer useful. The emperors were almost always generals because Rome decided to become an empire and conquer new lands so the republic aspect of Rome was shrouded in the hands of one man with most of…

    Honestly, while I was getting the smart and focus two assignment done I imagined myself setting up different types of goals and not achieving any of them. The reason I predicted this was because usually when set an objective for myself it usually backfires as a result of me not being very motivated. Nevertheless, I gave these tasks a chance to hopefully learn new strategies for the future to manage my academic and, in the long run, my career. In addition while I usually fail at achieving my goal I hoped that this new strategy would help me create a more realistic goal.…

    Recessions are generally believed to be caused by a widespread drop in spending. Beginning in the United States in December 2007 the industrialized world has been undergoing a recession, a pronounced deceleration of economic activity. The financial crisis has been linked to reckless and unsustainable lending practices resulting from the deregulation and securitization of real estate mortgages in the United States. Whatever the cause, there is one question that has been getting the least amount of attention; what effects does the economy have on our health as a society? The World Health Organization has defined health as being "a state of complete physical, mental, and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity”. So,…
