Pest on Unilever
Pest Analysis On Unilever – December 2nd, 2010

product brands in foods, beverages, cleaning agents and personal care products.
Unilever is a dual–listed company consisting of Unilever N.V. in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and
Unilever PLC in London, United Kingdom. This arrangement is similar to those of Reed Elsevier

All businesses are affected by national and global economic factors. National and global interest rate
and fiscal policy will be set around economic conditions. The climate of the economy dictates how
consumers, suppliers and other organizational stakeholders such as suppliers and creditors behave
within society.
An economy undergoing recession will have high unemployment, low spending power and low
stakeholder confidence. Conversely a "booming" or growing economy will have low
unemployment, high spending power and high stakeholder confidence.
A successful organization will respond to economic conditions and stakeholder behavior.
Furthermore organisations will need to review the impact economic conditions are having on their
competitors and respond accordingly.
In this global business world organisations are affected by economies throughout the world and not
just the countries in which they are based or operate from. For example: a global credit crunch
originating in the USA contributed towards the credit crunch in the UK in 2007/08.
Cheaper labour in developing countries affects the competitiveness of products from developed
countries. An increase in interest rates in the USA will affect the share price of UK stocks or adverse
weather conditions in India may affect the price of tea bought in an English café.
A truly global player has to be aware of economic conditions across all borders

Australian market to focus on hybrid/autonomous technologies
The first strategic option proposed is to expand operations within the Australian Market to focus on
hybrid and autonomous technologies in addition to the existing three pronged strategy.
The goals of this option include increasing production locally by adding new models for export and
simultaneously transitioning models made overseas to being made locally. This would focus on
hybrid and low carbon models. In addition, bringing R&D processes for autonomous vehicles to

salesman whose efforts to obtain the "American Dream" and pass his success on to his two sons

Even the country shut down production of consumer goods to meet the needs of the war. The
changes brought about an increase in industrial production. The labor force significantly increased.
Almost a third of the country had a disposable income for the first time, a drastic change from
nearly half of Americans suffering from poverty a year before. After the war the goal simply became
developing an economy capable of providing an adequate livelihood to all its citizens, the
"American Dream". The 1940's marks the rise of suburbs and the ideal "good life" or "American
Dream" as many veterans returned home and purchased houses. In the late 1940's and throughout
the 1950's, many pursued the "American Dream" of hard work rewarded by middle–class signs of
success such as a house, a car, a college education, and household appliances. Miller wrote Act 1 of
Death of a Salesman in less than twenty four hours, and completed the rest of the play within six
weeks in a small studio built on his farm in Roxbury, Connecticut. Many believe the town was an
ideal location for authors to settle down way from the public eye. Authors William Styron and Frank
McCourt also found refuge in the New England farm town. Some suggest the peace that Roxbury
provided Miller allowed him to pen Death of a Salesman, a literary classic. Today Miller's estate

Detailed Analysis on Personality Disorders
Personality Disorders: Detailed Analysis
First Paragraph Descriptions: Personality disorder is one of the many psychological disorders
examined by numerous psychiatrists and academics today. This is a serious psychological disorder,
yet one that can be treated by various means, most of which are still being advanced in many fields.
Thus, there is much hope that personality disorders can be treated quite well through both
psychotherapy and with medicine. Psychotherapy, one of the first topics to be discussed here, is
known as a therapeutic medium through which a patient and a doctor interact, with the patient
providing the doctor with psychological 'triggers' that the doctor can then analyze. Psychotherapy is
thus an umbrella term for many types of interventions, and these differ based on the individual.
Some define this type of therapy as "the informed and intentional application of clinical methods
and interpersonal stances derived from established psychological principles for the purpose of
assisting people to modify their behaviors, cognitions, emotions and/or other personal characteristics
in directions that the participants deem desirable." (Psychotherapeutic Interventions, P.247)
Psychotherapy is thus important as a means through which to treat all types o f personality
disorders, because of the fact that it can be tailored to a patient's needs.

state this, and for some readers, it may be helpful to point that out. Also, the term "nulliparous" is

Research Questions Although the authors do not come right out and say it, the study focuses on a
single question they quote within the introduction which states, "If there is no good reason in theory
or in practice for hurrying the second stage of labor, why has the habit been prevalent for so long
and why does it still exist? (p. 311)". This appears to be the driving question behind the entire study
and is only apparent once the reader has read the discussion section of the article. Literature Review
The authors have done a thorough literature review and presented their findings by starting out with
some important statistics about typical supportive care during the birth process, and elaborating on
the last 50 years of research done on the types of pushing efforts and how they related to the
outcomes of the births. It reflects on the role of midwives as being supportive of spontaneous
pushing by the mother and the positive outcomes for those women and children. They did report on

Software Development Life Cycle ( Sdlc )
Software Development Life Cycle
Introduction
Software Development Life Cycle, (SDLC) denotes the process used by software industries to
design, develop and test high–quality software. SDLC is also referred to as Software development
process and aims at producing high–quality software meeting or exceeding customer's expectations,
or that reaches completion within cost and times estimation. A system is a set of intermingling or
dependent components that form a unified whole; it is a term that can get used in diverse industries.
Therefore, SDLC is a limited term that explains the phases of developing a software component
integrating with other software constituents to develop the whole system. Software Development
Life Cycle depicts the process to be followed by a software organization for a software project
consisting of the detailed plan with a description of how to develop, maintain, alter, and replace a
particular software (Davis et al. 1455). Typically, an SDLC consists of six development stages as
listed below:
i. Planning and requirement analyzes ii. Defining and documenting the requirements. iii. System
design. iv. Building the system software
v. Testing the system software. vi. Deployment and maintenance of the system software.
SDLC life cycle defines a methodology to improve the quality of software and complete

Crusty Pizza Restaurant: Forecasting using Regressions

Introduction
The purpose of this case is to determine which key variables drive Crusty Pizza Restaurant's
monthly profit and then forecast what the monthly profit would be for potential stores. Based off of
this information we will be able to make a recommendation to Crusty Dough Pizza Restaurant on
which stores they should open and which they avoid. The group was provided 60 restaurants' data
that included monthly profit, student population, advertising expenditures, parking spots, population
within 20 miles, pizza varieties, and competitors within 15 miles. For the potential stores we were
given all of this ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
In a regression analysis we found that the correlation coefficient is .5862 with a very high level of
confidence (see Appendix A for detailed Regression Analysis Data). We also found that the
coefficient of determination was .3437. This shows that since there is a correlation between student
population and profits, the impact student population has on the profits is approximately 34%. We
also found from our regression equation that an increase in the student population by 1 student can
increase profit by $1.07. You can see the positive trend in the scatter plot below.
Competitors within 15 Miles Competition is a strong driver in the free enterprise of America. Crusty
Dough Pizza Company is no exception. While Crusty Dough Pizza Company varies in its number of
competitors within 15 miles by store, this variance does not seem to correlate to higher or lower
profits. When looking at the regression analysis completed using competitors within 15 miles as the
independent variable and monthly profit as the dependent variable, we find that the correlation
coefficient is a very low .133. It's safe to say there is it not a correlation between these two figures
(see Appendix A for detailed Regression Analysis Data).

In this review, three different analysis techniques will be discussed, including Structured What If
Technique (SWIFT), Failure Modes, Effects, and Diagnostic Analysis (FMEDA) and Technique for
Human Error–rate Prediction (THERP). Each of them will be discussed in three aspects (concept,
suitable situations and application).

Concept of SWIFT:
As a technique of risk identification, SWIFT is flexible and focus on high level. It can be run alone,
or as a portion of a staged method to achieve more efficient use of bottom–up methods like FMEA
(Failure Modes and Effects Analysis) [1].
By concentrating on high–level procedures, SWIFT can often be conducted more rapidly than more
detail–oriented approaches. In fact, an industrial case showed that a SWIFT risk assessment could
be conducted in as little as one–third of the time required for a HAZOP (Hazard and Operability
study)–based approach [1], a result that was replicated in a study comparing SWIFT to HFMEA

Managers need to keep up with technological change as it allows them to keep a competitive
advantage. Tesco helped keep up with the technological environment by introducing the self–service
checkout in their stores which enables the customers to serve themselves. This decreases the amount
of staff they needed on the tills in the stores nationwide and thus saving on their wage costs. Legal
environment is making sure that companies abide by the government policies and legislation. In
2015, Tesco were being investigated into the relationship with the suppliers. Tesco could be find up
to 1% of annual profits if they are found guilty of mistreating their suppliers (BBC). By not
complying with legislation can affect the business, this would give it a bad reputation and may effect
sales and profits. The environmental factor is all about how companies can be environmentally
friendly and how the company can benefit society in the way they produce their products and
distribute them. Tesco are reducing there carbon intensity by 40.9% since 2006/2007(tesco website).

Advantages Of Conversation Analysis
What is a conversation? A conversation is referred to as a spontaneous, impromptu, everyday
exchange of talk between two or more individuals. The participants in a conversation take turns and
during their turn each makes a conversational move of some kind, this is seen as a form of
sociability and reflects an individual's ability and willingness to interact with others. People gather
their construction of a conversation together, cooperatively, and they deal with the gatherings of the
conversation at local level, one utterance at a time (Parker 1999).
Conversation analysis is an approach to the study of human interaction in society which embraces
verbal and nonverbal conduct in situations of everyday interchanges. There may be a misinformed
view that this analysis only focuses on the sociable nature of the conversation, but in reality, it
encompasses conversations of all sorts, from informal and formal to technologically mediated
conversations. Conversation analysis is broad in scope but one of the things that differentiate ...

It does not use coded or summarised representations, but rather analyses detailed audio or video
recordings of interactional activities and detailed transcripts. Another benefit of using conversation
analysis, it focuses on naturally occurring data and not conversations that are manipulated as
mentioned prior. However, there are limitations to this approach as well such as the fact that it can
be time consuming and therefore requires a great deal of patience and dedication to go through
numerous and long transcripts of conversations. It can also be costly. Often it also requires
specialised training in the Conversation Analysis methodology if it is going to be done well. This
analytic approach is also very sensitive to misinterpretation and over interpretation therefore

companies are aware of theses attacks and are trying to invest more and more in security. It's
important to point out that attacks are not just from the outside; breaches and even data leakage can
be accomplished by inside employees. So, it's really important to protect against inside and outside
attacks. High–tech businesses rely primarily on two opposing information values: the dissemination
of information for innovation success and the protection of information to retain competitive

The First Phase Of Strategy Work

The first phase of strategy work is to gain the information of case company. Our case company is a
nonprofit organization –––MacMillan Cancer Support. The first thing we did is to get to understand
how charity works. After the first group meeting, we decided to find the information about the
company and the industry individually and then made a pool of collected information. As a student
from China, I knew little about charity because in my country charity is not a big industry and
people seldom pay attention to this field. Charity was a totally new thing to me and I started to learn
it from scratch. At the beginning, I felt a little perplexed and I did not know where to start my

We felt we needed to make some change to move forward then we turned to the framework we
learned the lectures.
Information analysis
Our first step was to identify the goal of MacMillan. Unlike profit–driven company, charity's goal is
not to chase profit but to make the world better. Their intentions are always altruistic. According to
their homepage and their annual report we found their nine outcomes as their goals. They are
devoted to cancer support to make sure that everyone affected by cancer will not face the disease
alone.
After specifying their goal, we moved to the environmental analysis. Since it was in the first few
weeks, we chose the PEST and five forces framework to use. When we started to analyze, a main
problem came to us. Since MacMillan is a nonprofit organization, the definition of its competitors
confused us. Should it be all the charities worldwide or only the local cancer charities? Through
looking up the textbooks and identifying the industry, we thought that in this industry they mainly
competed for the funding, so we defined their competitors as all the cancer charities which searched
for funding against MacMillan. Since the definition of their competitors has been clarified, we
started to look the industry. We thought the hospitals and hospices could be the substitutes of charity
and the new cancer charity would be the potential entrants. In the five

A Detailed Analysis of The Red–Headed League and The Final Problem In 1888, "A Study in
Scarlet" was published, bringing together the infamous duo of Holmes and Watson – and in the
creation of Holmes, earned Conan Doyle his fortune. "Scandal in Bohemia" and the following
stories of his characters journey into the world of crime solving appeared in "The Strand" magazine.
The 1880s saw a growing market for popular fiction and at a mere sixpence a week, it had anxious
people rushing to the stands for literary entertainment, amusement and escapism. The double act of
Holmes and Watson is very effective in the short stories by Conan Doyle. Holmes is often described
in the short stories with ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
Another reason Watson is effective as the storyteller, is that compared to Holmes' amazing powers
of logic and deduction, he seems more like a normal person. He, like the reader, is amazed by
Holmes' skills, yet he does not understand them. During the denouement of "The Red–Headed
League", Watson helps the reader understand how Holmes' came to his conclusions by asking him
the questions that are in the readers mind, such as, "But how could you guess what the motive was?"
and, "how could you tell that they would make their attempt to–night?" This satisfies the reader and
adds realism – it helps them accept it is possible. Also, as Watson is left in the dark until the
conclusion, it emphasises Holmes ingenuity and powers of deductive reasoning. Throughout "The
Red–Headed League", there are many clues that enable the mystery to be solved. The idea of the
Red–Headed League was so bizarre that there had to be something beyond the obvious evidence.
Holmes chuckles after the reading of the advertisement found in the newspaper and concludes that it
is "a little off the beaten track". The strange factors that surround the hiring of Wilson's assistant,
Vincent Spaulding, make the reader (and the characters) quite dubious of his authenticity. Vincent

that a company is in. In chapter 3 of the text some of the main topics include industry profitability
and attractiveness which can be analyzed by using "Porter's Five Forces of Competition
Framework" (Grant, 2010; pg 69). The five forces include competition from substitutes, new market
entrants, and established firms as well as the power of buyers and suppliers. One of the main topics

Another important topic discussed in chapter 3 is the application of industry analysis. This includes
using the information available to forecast the potential profit in an industry. This is done in three
stages which include: looking at how the amount of competition and profit to examine the industry's
current structure, identifying trends within the industry that are changing it, and identifying how
those changes will affect the five forces of competition and profitability (Grant, 2010; pg. 78–79).
The application of industry analysis also includes using this information to position the company by
finding weak points in the competition and using them to the company's advantage. One final
important topic in chapter 3 involves the identification of "key success factors" (Grant, 2010; pg.
86). This involves answering the questions of what customers want in a product or service and how
they survive the competition. These factors vary by industry. Customers may want low prices,
quality products, or convenience to name a few. Surviving the competition may mean product
differentiation, price competition, or cost efficiency. In some industries these factor may be easy to

Aerotoxic Syndrome is an illness that is caused by breathing in toxic fumes inside of the jet aircraft.
This is caused by the air intake on a plane, which comes from the engine where it sucks in the air
and pumps it into the cabin, but the toxic oils and other substances in the engine can easily leak into
the airflow and contaminate the air that all passengers and staff breath. A very common leakage is
the leakage of the jet engine lubricant oil, tricresyl phosphate, otherwise known as TCP or TOCP.

terrorists sitting among Americans, and all the rest of the passengers continuing their usual work.
This particular scene in the waiting room recognizes how the terrorists are "not" Americans, which
ideally gives the audience a hint of exclusion and anger which is a secondary reaction of patriotism.
The one thing that Lee is cautious about, in particular, is the nondiscrimination and unrecognition of
the terrorists from the characters' point of view, which conveys the message of neutrality and
fairness seen among all Americans for the rest of the world, which does not work in the same way as
the United States does. This wary precaution kept him out of any accusations by any race, ethnicity,

Pest Analysis Of Walmart
Several years ago, I was the Director of HR Strategy for Walmart US. As a component of one of my
early projects, and being fairly new to the organization, I was asked to conduct a PEST of the
organization based on my team's perspective. As a retail industry leader, Walmart continues to
withstand the potential negative effects of threats in the political, economic, sociocultural, and
technological (PEST) aspects of its business. However, this success requires continued evaluation of
the retail industry environment and constant investment in risk mitigation strategies and processes.
These PEST factors also change over time, and since it has been years for me since being there, I
fresh look is required. These constant changes may present new threats or opportunities that were
otherwise not contemplated before (i.e. the Amazon effect). Walmart must exploit the opportunities
and protect itself from threats. In using the PEST analysis, Walmart leaders and managers can
determine which factors to prioritize in strategy development. Let's look at each of the four factors
in our further analysis.
Political Factors – "Are there any other political factors that are likely to change?" Walmart

who did get inspired from Alfred Adler's above quote happens to be Paul Greengrass, the writer and
director of the movie United 93. The point of view camera shots, staggering and making its way
through, led the audience on board of the airliner, creating subtle lively feeling of presence on the
plane for the audience. The United 93's opening scenes do make the audience an iota suspicious
about the Al Qaeda terrorists, in a civilian get up, reading Quran in Arabic, and plotting the course
of their plan. In contrast, the passengers, from a senior citizen to teenager girls, from a Russian
tourist to a business person, and from the pilots to hostesses, who will be soon boarding the plane,
are shown limited to these facts of having a terrorist among their fellows by Greengrass. Everyday

Personal Reflection
In my first course at Walden University, Dr. Beebe asked for the reasons I am pursuing my advanced
degree and gave her reasons why she did hers. It was part of our discussion board topic of igniting
your passion to drive the work that we do. Her reason was similar to mine but I was caught off guard
because until yesterday I was not ready to accept that I was doing this degree for me. It felt wrong
that I was doing something for me because the world has so much issues and I am here dedicating a
large part of my life and finances to do something for myself. After some reflection I was ready to
accept it and embrace it without the feeling of guilt. As a child growing up in a third world country
with limited resources everyone knew what they wanted to become and had dreams of achieving so
much. I was that child 15 years ago who knew what he wanted but had the mindset of reality that
unless something drastic happen, this dream was far from reality. Five years later, something drastic
did happen and I was given the opportunity to come to America. I told myself walking into that
plane that I am going to take every single opportunity given to me and run with it. Ever since I am
working towards my potential to fulfill that promise I made to myself, to take the opportunities
given to me and make the most out of my life. After some more reflection I came to the conclusion
that as much as I am doing this for me, there is nothing selfish about it. I planned to use this degree
to help

Pest On Unilever

  • 1. Pest on Unilever Pest Analysis On Unilever – December 2nd, 2010 ________________________________________ Unilever is an Anglo–Dutch multinational corporation that owns many of the world's consumer product brands in foods, beverages, cleaning agents and personal care products. Unilever is a dual–listed company consisting of Unilever N.V. in Rotterdam, The Netherlands and Unilever PLC in London, United Kingdom. This arrangement is similar to those of Reed Elsevier and Royal Dutch Shell prior to their unified structures. Both Unilever companies have the same directors and effectively operate as a single business. The current non–executive Chairman of Unilever N.V. and PLC is Michael Treschow while Paul Polman is Group Chief Executive. Unilever's main ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... All businesses are affected by national and global economic factors. National and global interest rate and fiscal policy will be set around economic conditions. The climate of the economy dictates how consumers, suppliers and other organizational stakeholders such as suppliers and creditors behave within society. An economy undergoing recession will have high unemployment, low spending power and low stakeholder confidence. Conversely a "booming" or growing economy will have low unemployment, high spending power and high stakeholder confidence. A successful organization will respond to economic conditions and stakeholder behavior. Furthermore organisations will need to review the impact economic conditions are having on their competitors and respond accordingly. In this global business world organisations are affected by economies throughout the world and not just the countries in which they are based or operate from. For example: a global credit crunch originating in the USA contributed towards the credit crunch in the UK in 2007/08. Cheaper labour in developing countries affects the competitiveness of products from developed countries. An increase in interest rates in the USA will affect the share price of UK stocks or adverse weather conditions in India may affect the price of tea bought in an English café. A truly global player has to be aware of economic conditions across all borders

The report makes adequate effort to discuss what was done to enhance and evaluate the quality of the data and the overall inquiry with the findings being "part of a larger mixed method study of both qualitative and quantitative data collected over three time periods" (Keenan, 2010, p. 25) Background information regarding the development of the study was provided with the goal of the study "to identify the needs expressed by family members, ...

This is especially important in this study since further research in additional populations seems necessary to determine which aspects of this study are generalizable to additional populations to include different locations and patient populations as well as further variability in patient family demographics (i.e. the inclusion of more male family members). One of the strategies not used in this study we the use of group interviews or focus groups. The authors point this fact out in their study indicating that while the results from such interviews would likely add to the evidence of their study, because of the scope of the study this method would need to wait to be utilized in later studies. Limiting the number of uncontrolled variables and not overwhelming the study with multiple research methods that may or may not add to the value of the results at this point seems beneficial and allows room for future ...

I haven't yet decided what I want to use my degree to accomplish or what career I see myself attaining in my future. As I conducted my research on my three professions, I have discovered that I would like to be a business intelligence analyst, accountant, or maybe even a marketing manager.

Case Study : Hybrid And Autonomous Technologies 3.1 Option 1: Continue with existing 3–pronged strategy and expand operations within the Australian market to focus on hybrid/autonomous technologies The first strategic option proposed is to expand operations within the Australian Market to focus on hybrid and autonomous technologies in addition to the existing three pronged strategy. The goals of this option include increasing production locally by adding new models for export and simultaneously transitioning models made overseas to being made locally. This would focus on hybrid and low carbon models. In addition, bringing R&D processes for autonomous vehicles to Australia prepares Toyota Australia for this emerging market. Autonomous models that are produced and tested in Australia will provide a first mover advantage for Toyota Australia in the Australian market. Other manufacturers will take longer to bring models to Australia and are likely to require government support to establish their models in the local market.

The story behind the play is based on Miller's interactions with his Uncle, a salesman whose efforts to obtain the "American Dream" and pass his success on to his two sons becomes his main focus. Miller's life during the preparation of Death of a Salesman provides the spark and inspiration needed to pen a literary classic. Almost five decades later, Death of a Salesman's themes is still relevant in today's society. Arthur Asher Miller was born October 17, 1915 in Harlem, New York City. Miller was the son of Isadora and ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Even the country shut down production of consumer goods to meet the needs of the war. The changes brought about an increase in industrial production. The labor force significantly increased. Almost a third of the country had a disposable income for the first time, a drastic change from nearly half of Americans suffering from poverty a year before. After the war the goal simply became developing an economy capable of providing an adequate livelihood to all its citizens, the "American Dream". The 1940's marks the rise of suburbs and the ideal "good life" or "American Dream" as many veterans returned home and purchased houses. In the late 1940's and throughout the 1950's, many pursued the "American Dream" of hard work rewarded by middle–class signs of success such as a house, a car, a college education, and household appliances. Miller wrote Act 1 of Death of a Salesman in less than twenty four hours, and completed the rest of the play within six weeks in a small studio built on his farm in Roxbury, Connecticut. Many believe the town was an ideal location for authors to settle down way from the public eye. Authors William Styron and Frank McCourt also found refuge in the New England farm town. Some suggest the peace that Roxbury provided Miller allowed him to pen Death of a Salesman, a literary classic. Today Miller's estate contributes to about forty seven acres to the Roxbury Land Trust and Miller was laid to rest at Roxbury Center Cemetery in ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Detailed Analysis on Personality Disorders Personality Disorders: Detailed Analysis First Paragraph Descriptions: Personality disorder is one of the many psychological disorders examined by numerous psychiatrists and academics today. This is a serious psychological disorder, yet one that can be treated by various means, most of which are still being advanced in many fields. Thus, there is much hope that personality disorders can be treated quite well through both psychotherapy and with medicine. Psychotherapy, one of the first topics to be discussed here, is known as a therapeutic medium through which a patient and a doctor interact, with the patient providing the doctor with psychological 'triggers' that the doctor can then analyze. Psychotherapy is thus an umbrella term for many types of interventions, and these differ based on the individual. Some define this type of therapy as "the informed and intentional application of clinical methods and interpersonal stances derived from established psychological principles for the purpose of assisting people to modify their behaviors, cognitions, emotions and/or other personal characteristics in directions that the participants deem desirable." (Psychotherapeutic Interventions, P.247) Psychotherapy is thus important as a means through which to treat all types o f personality disorders, because of the fact that it can be tailored to a patient's needs.

Although the title seems to imply that the study is qualitative in nature, it does not overtly state this, and for some readers, it may be helpful to point that out. Also, the term "nulliparous" is not a word used often in the general vocabulary of everyday people, and warrants the use of a dictionary for most people to determine which type of women were included in the study.

Research Questions Although the authors do not come right out and say it, the study focuses on a single question they quote within the introduction which states, "If there is no good reason in theory or in practice for hurrying the second stage of labor, why has the habit been prevalent for so long and why does it still exist? (p. 311)". This appears to be the driving question behind the entire study and is only apparent once the reader has read the discussion section of the article. Literature Review The authors have done a thorough literature review and presented their findings by starting out with some important statistics about typical supportive care during the birth process, and elaborating on the last 50 years of research done on the types of pushing efforts and how they related to the outcomes of the births. It reflects on the role of midwives as being supportive of spontaneous pushing by the mother and the positive outcomes for those women and children.

SDLC is also referred to as Software development process and aims at producing high–quality software meeting or exceeding customer's expectations, or that reaches completion within cost and times estimation. A system is a set of intermingling or dependent components that form a unified whole; it is a term that can get used in diverse industries. Therefore, SDLC is a limited term that explains the phases of developing a software component integrating with other software constituents to develop the whole system. Software Development Life Cycle depicts the process to be followed by a software organization for a software project consisting of the detailed plan with a description of how to develop, maintain, alter, and replace a particular software (Davis et al. 1455). Typically, an SDLC consists of six development stages as listed below: i. Planning and requirement analyzes ii. Defining and documenting the requirements. iii. System design. iv. Building the system software v. Testing the system software. vi. Deployment and maintenance of the system software.

Based off of this information we will be able to make a recommendation to Crusty Dough Pizza Restaurant on which stores they should open and which they avoid. The group was provided 60 restaurants' data that included monthly profit, student population, advertising expenditures, parking spots, population within 20 miles, pizza varieties, and competitors within 15 miles. For the potential stores we were given all of this ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... In a regression analysis we found that the correlation coefficient is .5862 with a very high level of confidence (see Appendix A for detailed Regression Analysis Data). We also found that the coefficient of determination was .3437. This shows that since there is a correlation between student population and profits, the impact student population has on the profits is approximately 34%. We also found from our regression equation that an increase in the student population by 1 student can increase profit by $1.07. You can see the positive trend in the scatter plot below. Competitors within 15 Miles Competition is a strong driver in the free enterprise of America. Crusty Dough Pizza Company is no exception. While Crusty Dough Pizza Company varies in its number of competitors within 15 miles by store, this variance does not seem to correlate to higher or lower profits. When looking at the regression analysis completed using competitors within 15 miles as the independent variable and monthly profit as the dependent variable, we find that the correlation coefficient is a very low .133. It's safe to say there is it not a correlation between these two figures (see Appendix A for detailed Regression Analysis Data).

The participants in a conversation take turns and during their turn each makes a conversational move of some kind, this is seen as a form of sociability and reflects an individual's ability and willingness to interact with others. People gather their construction of a conversation together, cooperatively, and they deal with the gatherings of the conversation at local level, one utterance at a time (Parker 1999). Conversation analysis is an approach to the study of human interaction in society which embraces verbal and nonverbal conduct in situations of everyday interchanges.

As a student from China, I knew little about charity because in my country charity is not a big industry and people seldom pay attention to this field. Charity was a totally new thing to me and I started to learn it from scratch. At the beginning, I felt a little perplexed and I did not know where to start my research work. I searched in the ...

Information analysis Our first step was to identify the goal of MacMillan. Unlike profit–driven company, charity's goal is not to chase profit but to make the world better. Their intentions are always altruistic. According to their homepage and their annual report we found their nine outcomes as their goals. They are devoted to cancer support to make sure that everyone affected by cancer will not face the disease alone. After specifying their goal, we moved to the environmental analysis. Since it was in the first few weeks, we chose the PEST and five forces framework to use. When we started to analyze, a main problem came to us. Since MacMillan is a nonprofit organization, the definition of its competitors confused us. Should it be all the charities worldwide or only the local cancer charities? Through looking up the textbooks and identifying the industry, we thought that in this industry they mainly competed for the funding, so we defined their competitors as all the cancer charities which searched for funding against MacMillan. Since the definition of their competitors has been clarified, we started to look the industry. We thought the hospitals and hospices could be the substitutes of charity and the new cancer charity would be the potential entrants. In the five ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

A Detailed Analysis of The Red–Headed League and The Final Problem In 1888, "A Study in Scarlet" was published, bringing together the infamous duo of Holmes and Watson – and in the creation of Holmes, earned Conan Doyle his fortune. "Scandal in Bohemia" and the following stories of his characters journey into the world of crime solving appeared in "The Strand" magazine. The 1880s saw a growing market for popular fiction and at a mere sixpence a week, it had anxious people rushing to the stands for literary entertainment, amusement and escapism. The double act of Holmes and Watson is very effective in the short stories by Conan Doyle. Holmes is often described in the short stories with ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Another reason Watson is effective as the storyteller, is that compared to Holmes' amazing powers of logic and deduction, he seems more like a normal person. He, like the reader, is amazed by Holmes' skills, yet he does not understand them. During the denouement of "The Red–Headed League", Watson helps the reader understand how Holmes' came to his conclusions by asking him the questions that are in the readers mind, such as, "But how could you guess what the motive was?" and, "how could you tell that they would make their attempt to–night?" This satisfies the reader and adds realism – it helps them accept it is possible. Also, as Watson is left in the dark until the conclusion, it emphasises Holmes ingenuity and powers of deductive reasoning. Throughout "The Red–Headed League", there are many clues that enable the mystery to be solved. The idea of the Red–Headed League was so bizarre that there had to be something beyond the obvious evidence. Holmes chuckles after the reading of the advertisement found in the newspaper and concludes that it is "a little off the beaten track". The strange factors that surround the hiring of Wilson's assistant, Vincent Spaulding, make the reader (and the characters) quite dubious of his authenticity. Vincent worked "at half wages" and he had been with Wilson "about a month" before he showed Wilson the ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

Having such schemes in place may incur additional costs but there are long term benefits which include higher productivity, raised morale, motivation, engagement and achieving strategic objectives. The work life balance is also an important issue as many find that work demands get in the way of other commitments so 'being aware of different demands on time and energy' has become increasingly difficult to manage within the HR function at Charles Stanley. (David Clutterbuck) It has become increasingly important to have family friendly policies and flexible work patterns to help employees with other commitments such as community commitments or studying. Family friendly benefits like childcare vouchers are also offered at Charles Stanley but not taken up by many because they are not publicised enough. Other challenges recently raised within the HR dept is the lack of female labour in financial services and the ageing workforce which increases pensions costs.

In chapter 3 of the text some of the main topics include industry profitability and attractiveness which can be analyzed by using "Porter's Five Forces of Competition Framework" (Grant, 2010; pg 69). The five forces include competition from substitutes, new market entrants, and established firms as well as the power of buyers and suppliers. One of the main topics with this framework is the availability of substitutes which addresses the sensitivity to the price of a product or service and when customers will switch. Porter's framework does not include the availability of complimentary products. The threat of ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Another important topic discussed in chapter 3 is the application of industry analysis. This includes using the information available to forecast the potential profit in an industry. This is done in three stages which include: looking at how the amount of competition and profit to examine the industry's current structure, identifying trends within the industry that are changing it, and identifying how those changes will affect the five forces of competition and profitability (Grant, 2010; pg. 78–79). The application of industry analysis also includes using this information to position the company by finding weak points in the competition and using them to the company's advantage. One final important topic in chapter 3 involves the identification of "key success factors" (Grant, 2010; pg. 86). This involves answering the questions of what customers want in a product or service and how they survive the competition. These factors vary by industry. Customers may want low prices, quality products, or convenience to name a few. Surviving the competition may mean product differentiation, price competition, or cost efficiency. In some industries these factor may be easy to identify. Chapter 4 dives deeper into industry and competitive analysis and considers the competitive dynamics of competitors ...

The report is broken up into four sections, comprising firstly the nature of the problem, and how it affects all stakeholders, followed by the controversies related to the topic, with potential solutions to such controversies. Next in the report is the identification and prioritisation of appropriate risk controls, and finally an indication of immediate and long term actions the airline carrier can take when a crew member appears to be suffering from the illness, Aerotoxic Syndrome. Ultimately, the report as a whole will aid your airline carrier surrounding the issues of Aerotoxic Syndrome now and into the future. Aerotoxic Syndrome is an illness that is caused by breathing in toxic fumes inside of the jet aircraft. This is caused by the air intake on a plane, which comes from the engine where it sucks in the air and pumps it into the cabin, but the toxic oils and other substances in the engine can easily leak into the airflow and contaminate the air that all passengers and staff breath. A very common leakage is the leakage of the jet engine lubricant oil, tricresyl phosphate, otherwise known as TCP or TOCP. The Government and regulatory authorities have conducted researches that have admitted to the association between the contamination of the cabin air to chronic health problems, but they have not admitted to specific causation.

Everyday life of Americans is depicted and the shots are cut between the awkwardness of the terrorists sitting among Americans, and all the rest of the passengers continuing their usual work. This particular scene in the waiting room recognizes how the terrorists are "not" Americans, which ideally gives the audience a hint of exclusion and anger which is a secondary reaction of patriotism. The one thing that Lee is cautious about, in particular, is the nondiscrimination and unrecognition of the terrorists from the characters' point of view, which conveys the message of neutrality and fairness seen among all Americans for the rest of the world, which does not work in the same way as the United States does. This wary precaution kept him out of any accusations by any race, ethnicity, or religion. The absence of personal opinion and interpretation in the movie extends the viewers to believe in what is shown and take it as factual storyline, one that has not been tampered in any way. But, what comes next is a downhill of tragic scenes, one after another– of the radio stations heating up of phone calls, tension rose due to absence of authorities, lack of communications between different wings of the State, and the trembling reactions of each passenger from the actions of the terrorists on board.

As a component of one of my early projects, and being fairly new to the organization, I was asked to conduct a PEST of the organization based on my team's perspective. As a retail industry leader, Walmart continues to withstand the potential negative effects of threats in the political, economic, sociocultural, and technological (PEST) aspects of its business. However, this success requires continued evaluation of the retail industry environment and constant investment in risk mitigation strategies and processes. These PEST factors also change over time, and since it has been years for me since being there, I fresh look is required. These constant changes may present new threats or opportunities that were otherwise not contemplated before (i.e. the Amazon effect). Walmart must exploit the opportunities and protect itself from threats. In using the PEST analysis, Walmart leaders and managers can determine which factors to prioritize in strategy development. Let's look at each of the four factors in our further analysis. Political Factors – "Are there any other political factors that are likely to change?" Walmart considers political factors in the retail and employment markets, usually pertaining to government policies and employment law. In the PEST analysis model, politically active interest groups are also significant in how Walmart reacts to this aspect. For the most part, politics that would ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...

"Seeing with the eyes of another, listening with the ears of another, and feeling with the heart of another." Someone who did get inspired from Alfred Adler's above quote happens to be Paul Greengrass, the writer and director of the movie United 93. The point of view camera shots, staggering and making its way through, led the audience on board of the airliner, creating subtle lively feeling of presence on the plane for the audience. The United 93's opening scenes do make the audience an iota suspicious about the Al Qaeda terrorists, in a civilian get up, reading Quran in Arabic, and plotting the course of their plan. In contrast, the passengers, from a senior citizen to teenager girls, from a Russian tourist to a business person, and from the pilots to hostesses, who will be soon boarding the plane, are shown limited to these facts of having a terrorist among their fellows by Greengrass. Everyday life of Americans can be distinguished by the camera shots that are cut between the clumsiness of the terrorists sitting among Americans, and all the rest of the characters engrossed in their usual work.

It was part of our discussion board topic of igniting your passion to drive the work that we do. Her reason was similar to mine but I was caught off guard because until yesterday I was not ready to accept that I was doing this degree for me. It felt wrong that I was doing something for me because the world has so much issues and I am here dedicating a large part of my life and finances to do something for myself. After some reflection I was ready to accept it and embrace it without the feeling of guilt. As a child growing up in a third world country with limited resources everyone knew what they wanted to become and had dreams of achieving so much. I was that child 15 years ago who knew what he wanted but had the mindset of reality that unless something drastic happen, this dream was far from reality. Five years later, something drastic did happen and I was given the opportunity to come to America. I told myself walking into that plane that I am going to take every single opportunity given to me and run with it. Ever since I am working towards my potential to fulfill that promise I made to myself, to take the opportunities given to me and make the most out of my life.
