The human mind has many mysteries to be solved, and it always being a challenge to study and to understand its working process. In Carol Dweck 's article "Brainology: Transforming Students Motivation to Learn", the author shows us that our brain change constantly; we have two distinct classifications of mindset; growth mindset and fixed mindset. The challenging point is to understand how these mindsets work, and how it affects our life. Individuals with fixed mindset do not believe in their potential; they believe that each person has just a certain amount of intelligence which is unchangeable. On the other hand, the person with the growth mindset believes that everyone can improve their abilities through effort and education.…
Altogether, there are about eight organizational structure types. Each company has to find a way of putting these “pieces of the puzzle” into one well thought-out outline to represent the necessary relationships. In this case, we’ll be looking at the divisional structure. According to the text, “as organizations grow and become increasingly diversified, they find that functional departments have difficulty managing a wide variety of products, customers, and geographic regions. In this case, organizations may restructure to group all functions into a single division and duplicate each of the functions across all the divisions (Bateman and Snell 8th edition, 2009).”…
The reporting structure is a very important tool in an organization. This structure is a chart that serves as a roadmap of management levels and positions. Every business has a chain of command and it is structured uniquely, depending on the organization. The structure of an organization, if not built correctly can destroy the organization just like a building with poor architecture. The blueprints clarify and build a strong foundation in which to grow or build an organization. Chipotle is a Mexican Grill Restaurant in the fast food industry that started out with one location in Colorado back in 1993. Today it has just more than 1,400 locations in the United States, Canada, England, and France. The structure of this organization has had to change and adapt to the growth of the business over time. Like a majority of businesses and organizations the vertical organizational structure is similar with multiple levels of hierarchy. At Chipotle, the top of the pyramid is fulfilled by the board of directors whom have the ultimate responsibility of making decisions for the entire company (Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc., 2010). At the bottom of the pyramid there are the store managers, assistants, shift managers, and employees completing the everyday operational tasks that brings in the money. Between these two levels there are district and regional managers seeing over the many locations spread out across America and beyond.…
People learn in many different ways, but do you ever wonder why that is. Why are we so different and learn so differently? The brain is the answer to that question. The brain gives us what we need to determine what and who we are as people. Because of the human brain’s complexity, professors and teachers are starting to see that one way of teaching is not always the best way from everyone. “Each child processes new information in ways are related to environmental, emotional, sociological, physiological, and psychological elements” (Green, 1999, p. 684). When it comes to the process of learning and thinking, the average person has two sides of the brain that determines how they learn. The two main halves of our brain are the right brain and the left brain hemispheres. Each hemisphere performs different functions and communicates information differently. One hemisphere is not more important than the other but they do determine how we see things and interpret them in our mind. With the left brain hemisphere, the characteristics are mathematical and analytical and with the right hemisphere the characteristics are more creative and imaginative. The brain is very complex to understand. Once we learn how the left side brain learns and how the right side brain learns, then we can better develop a way of learning for all types of students and people.…
Our brain is made of billions of tiny cells called neurons. When we are trying to absorb an information or remember particular things, part of our brains are transmitting signals from one neuron to another. That is why learning is part of a biological process because it involves our body and the most complex thing in the universe, the brain. Understanding and remembering are two fundamental elements that we should always bear in mind because they will surely help us in our learning process. Both of them are connected to each other and we cannot learn things simply by…
People with borderline personality disorder are more likely to have major difficulties with relationships, especially with those closest to them. The mood swings, angry outbursts, fears, and being impulsive and irrational behaviors can leave loved ones feeling helpless. Family members who support their loved one states it is like being on an emotional roller coaster with no end in sight. There is no magic pill, but many people with Borderline Personality Disorder (BPD) can and do get better and their relationships can become more stable. Individuals with the most support and stability at home tend to get better more quickly rather than not having the support and reinsurance. If your loved one has borderline personality disorder, it’s important…

The design of a company affects every aspect of the business such as the way its members communicate, how decisions are made, and how the work is delegated, etcetera (Dictionary.com, 2006). This layout is known as the organization structure formally defined by Wikipedia (2006) as, "the way in which the interrelated groups of an organization are constructed. From a managerial point of view the main concerns are ensuring effective communication and coordination." In respects to project management there are three primary organizational break downs they are functional structure, pure project structure, and matrix structure. We will take a look into each of these structures to better identify the similarities and differences between them.…

A group is a well structured organization with different individuals that has different characteristics and diversity these groups can be formal or informal. In my research I have found that retail stores such as Wal-Mart and Kmart has organizational structure. Group task satisfaction describes the group-level counterpart to individual job satisfaction and represents the group’s shared attitude toward its task and work environment. Places such as Wal-Mart demonstrate these skills to make their organization. The prevalence of groups and teams in the workplace (Beyerlein, Johnson, & Beyerlein, 1995; Devine, Clayton, Philips, Dunford, & Melner, 1999) makes it important to understand their effects on group members. In this paper I will identify an industry and organization type, explain four problems that could impact groups productivity, develop and describes logical and appropriate recommendations for each of the four problems provided and its recommendation, wide training, and the conclusion.…
-based pharmaceuticals firm and also a well-known pharmaceutical company. So their most of the work depends on research, developing strategies and innovate. They were trying to find a new way of system which makes their work more effective and efficient. Pfizer find out that their worker spends more time on business research and data analysis to the creation of documents and other routine support like Surfing and making PowerPoints and also spending so much time on menial tasks rather than knowledge work. The average Pfizer employee was spending 20 percent to 40 percent of his or her time on supporting work(creating documents, typing notes, doing research, manipulating data, scheduling meetings) and only 60 percent to 80 percent on knowledge work( strategy, innovation, networking, collaborating,…
Survey. We will create a short but thorough questionnaire which will collect the data you need for this project. The survey will include open-ended and closed questions regarding that person’s personal experience with LED and incandescent lights. We will survey people with different perspectives. Some will have home experience and some will have store experience. We’ll be focusing more on LEDs used in stores. A few questions the survey will address might regard utility bills, light bulb lifetimes, light quality, heat pollution from the lights, customer value, and other various…

From the work of Field and Keller (1998), there are some relationships among EST, EFT, LST, LFT, duration and TF in an activity-on-node. (See Table 1) Meanwhile, there are some types of dependency, but finish-to-start lag is normal one. In the network diagram drawn, it uses the finish-to-start relationship.…
