Kami Corporation
CASE ANALYSIS OF KAMI CORPORATION
Any type of business always requires effective communication. At any one point there is never over
communication and as the case study of Kami Corporation pointed out there is a need for
communication and cooperation.
Expansion and growth of a business is always a positive. However, there are also many draw backs
but with effective management, communication and all the components necessary for prosperity the
business will definitely succeed. Kami Corporation is a new company formed from under the Mega
Corporation umbrella. This new business venture was especially formed to assemble and produce
Aiwa TV's. Aiwa is a subsidiary of Sony but their TV's has a weaker position than its ... Show more

Productions were sometimes halted due to this. At times there would be all the materials but then it
would be at customs and not at Kami's operating factory. There were also times when the products
were already completed but could not be located at Kami's own warehouses. This was definitely not
acceptable for operations to run smoothly.
Clearly there was an existing in house problem and this problem needed to be addressed
immediately but with some care and diligence. This had much to do with working unitedly and
having effective communication. Working unitedly would be in terms of team members playing
their roles in a very professional and effective manner. Attitude towards each other and for the types
of work is very important. At the start it is shown since orders for materials were out sourced and
then imported. Orders were placed from Kami only through Mega Corporation which until the end
when the parts need clearance involves Kami. Kami then would have to be very vigilant in regards
to following up with orders that were placed. At times there were wrong orders but then even when
products were completed Kami was not so keen on warehouse storage.
A warehouse should be very organized and this was not the case for Kami Corporation. Finished
products were mixed with rejected components and waste materials. Adequate space and storage to
have these finished products be organized properly were available only if everything had order

Montvale Dairy Queen
Since the age of 15 I have worked at the Dairy Queen in Montvale, NJ. The Montvale Dairy Queen
was opened in 1957 by a family with the last name of Stoll and since then it has remained in their
family. Unlike a lot of Dairy Queens that are indoors the one I work out is essentially a free standing
"shack" that uses windows to receive people's orders and where people receive their ice cream and
other treats. In the owner's eyes, family is very important which makes working at this specific
location difficult at times. Most of the employees at the Montvale Dairy Queen have had some sort
of family member currently working on property or have had family members work there in the
past. There have been times that family issues have been brought ... Show more content on

Why An Individual Colleague Has Difficult Behavior
Running any business has its own challenges; however, most companies encounter difficult
employees, how can this issues be solved? First and foremost understanding why an individual
colleague has difficult behaviour. I have chosen to analysis why difficult staffs could be
problematical to any business. How does the role of a manager/leader play within the business to
have effective employees, whom can work as team player and perform at high standard?
Furthermore looking into the negative impact it has on a business and what could be the solution of
having great working efficient staffs. I based my research finding on google books, as well as using
online articles. Firstly, every business establishment has leaders whom play major role in, managing
productive staffs. The managers must have effective communication skills; for staffs to understand
their roles within the business, what their daily duties are. Instruction must be given as to when
deadline must be implemented. Adequate tools and equipment 's must be provided, for example
within the retail industry merchandise products must be replenished on the shop floor and never
should it be out of stock as this will prevail the input of staffs to feel lack of motivation, therefore
the employees will call in sick rather than go into work place, that has no stocks to sell to customers.
If staffs do not apprehend the role of their jobs and responsibilities, these might bring on stress and

Manhattan Country Club Job Analysis
For our final team project our group has decided to analyze and look at a Food and Beverage
Manager at the Manhattan Country Club. According to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics in 2014
there were 305,000 Food and Beverage Managers that made an average salary of $48,690 per year.
Some of the important duties of the job we found were overseeing employees to hire, fire, and train
them. They need to ensure employees are complying with health/food safety rules. It is also
important for Food and Beverage Managers to take food and beverage complaints and handle them
properly. They also need to schedule staff and assign duties and responsible to each person. A big

If we are looking to fill the position of a Food and Beverage Manager it would be particularly smart
to recruit from the inside. We think it would be in the company's best interest to recruit from the
inside because in the restaurant industry is hard to get thrown into the environment and dynamic
when you are on the outside. When recruiting internally it is easiest to let employees know there is a
job opening by word of mouth. We think it is important to send a notice out to all employees to
ensure they all have a fair opportunity to apply for the position if they feel fit. This is a good idea to
recruit internally because it shows everyone inside the company that they can move forward and
advance if they meet the standards. It would be typical for an assistant manager to advance into the
position of an active manager. When we are recruiting internally it is important to keep employees
feelings in check. Jealousy could arise and it has to be clear that everyone has a chance to apply for
the position, but not everyone is as qualified as we need them to be. Some of the criteria we need for
this position is experience, problem solving skills, and knowledge of profit and loss statements.
ServSafe certifications with alcohol and food safety would be helpful. It is also important to be
educated with CPR. Among safety concerns it is important to have physical qualifications for the
job. These qualifications include being able to lift at least 50 pounds, and being able to be on feet for
around 12 or more hours a day. This job can be very demanding at times. It might be unusual for
some of these physical demands, but since we are dealing with a smaller staff sometimes situations
arise where help isn't always going to be available. Our group went to the Manhattan Country Club

It is also important that the candidate obtain the characteristics of someone who would strongly
align with the culture of Tanglewood, since this is a major contributor to the success of the
company. Another consideration for Tanglewood is to offer more fringe benefits, such as accrued
paid time off, for this position in order to retain a higher percentage of employees in the future.
It is an apparent trend within Tanglewood to promote within its current employee base, so in
maintaining this company feature, we suggest implementing training and development for the shift
leader, assistant manager, and store manager positions. These positions reveal the least amount of
turnover within the company and can easily be maintained by promoting within the company. In
order to do so, it is important for higher titles within the company to take on leadership roles and
encourage others to learn, make suggestions, and contribute to the daily processes within the
company in order to prepare future managers for promotions.
Additionally, after observing the gap analysis, it appears that the largest gap among the management
titles exists within the department manager positions. It might be that these positions are not able to
be filled within the company. If training and development to promote within is not attainable then

Even though Bahrain tended to be more progressive than many Middle Eastern countries in its
attitude toward women, there were still many inequalities between genders. The current situation is
that Ellen's general manager asked her to change her mind about accepting the Account controlling

2. Why is Ellen successful as a manager?
This case showed a cultural difference between America and Bahrain based on their diversified
cultural norms and standards. Ellen confronted such issues as unequal classification of people and
also religious problems, which substantially affected her, and the Bahrainis' attitude toward women.
Rather than letting it be, she fought back to make the situation better and convince many people
around to realize the importance of social equalization in society and change the attitude of men to
women and women to themselves. The sample below showed how she went through each situation

2. Planning
2.1 Theory
According to Williams & McWilliams 2010 (p.85), planning can define as choosing a goal and
developing a method or strategy to achieve that goal. It is very important that every manager has
equipped with the skill of planning because planning is a part that can bring a company to success or
failure. Besides that, a manager who can make a good plan believed that he/she is a good manager
as well. Before starting a task, the manager must come out with an idea of how to do and what to do
in the particular task.
There are several benefits that can be obtained from planning such as planning will encourage
persistence, giving a direction to work toward, intensified effort, improve the development of task
strategies, reduces overlapping and wasteful action, reduces the risk of uncertainty and promotes
innovative ideas. In another words, planning not only make tasks done by an effective way, it also
encourages workers to work harder to do their jobs and reduce their uncertainty about the task.
However, when planning is done wrong, it may lead to some pitfalls that will cause some negative
effect to the organisation and individual performance. Those pitfalls are

A typical week in the life of a financial manager involves working full time in which one in three
financial managers work more than 40 hours per week. These individuals must be accustomed to
working in many industries, including but not limited to, banks and insurance companies (The
Bureau of Labor Statistics, 2015, n.p.). In order to be a financial manager an individual must be
willing to go above and beyond in order to secure themselves a job since there are more applicants
than there are job openings.
Education and Prerequisites: Financial Manager
As jobs are scarce in the business world candidates must show that they are capable and proficient
in their craft as opposed to other candidates. Although, the minimum educational requirement is a
Bachelor's degree in Finance, Accounting, Economics, and Business Administration, those who

Performance Evaluations : The Performance Evaluation Process
Performance Evaluations are a headache to many managers in the employment community. They
can make it difficult to have a great workplace connection. In addition, they make it hard to
accomplish goal performances. The performance evaluation system is a dislike process by em–
ployees and their supervisors. According to Chan & Yung (2002), "The performance evaluation is
quite subjective since it relies on the individual judgements of supervisors who have different per–
ceptions of the process performance" (p. 237). According to research, majority of personnel hates
the performance evaluation process from beginning to end. It is known that managers really hate the

initially is that it's aggravating. The initial reason for managers disliking the performance evaluation

that capacity. Managers do not just make things up as time goes on. All information being flowed
has a structure in place for this important reason. It will be easier to adjust when situations arise and
things are not going as planned. The reason it will be easier is because the structure of positions
from the top on down understands each role and responsibility. Without a solid foundation, security
will not stand and target of opportunity will get out of control.

A final management principle and a very important one to consider is performance. Not
performance of self, but all security professionals in the industry. Performance can mean a lot of
things and understand specifics need to be further evaluated. Specific areas to consider when
evaluated employees are each security professionals potential. If a manger understands who is
working for the industry it will create a better work environment.
Additionally, members of the team need to be evaluated based off performance. This can highlight
future leaders, managers and maybe even top level positions for the future. A manager is only as
good as the people working within the industry. Growth needs to be instilled in each employee in
order to keep a standard of excellence. How does this look like and what actions need to be taken?
First and foremost, manager's needs to ensure leaders are evaluating security personnel based off
duty performance. In the military a rank structure exists for many reasons. One driving factor is
position and how well each individual performs based off the entire team. For instance, at a certain
level all peers at the same rank are trying to set a sound duty performance. Management outlines the
performance and each individual will meet, not meet, or possibly exceed standards. This should not
be confused with a dog eat dog mentality.

Performance management aims at developing individuals with the required commitment and

communication between mangers and its employees for clarifying expectations about the roles and

Per Maslow, these needs which are the run of motivation for an employee to work are arranged in a
hierarchical order of increasing importance. This order is "prepotency". It means satisfied need no
longer remains a motivator and only the next greater needs can motivate an employee to perform
further. This was later analyzed due to there is no certainty that these needs are consider as a
motivation hierarchical order as recommended, therefore
Motivation doesn't always follow the hierarchy as Maslow's theory of needs.
Herzberg's model (1956) is the most used in business. It splits hygiene factors from motivation
factors. Hygiene factors are related to salary, working conditions, policies and administration are not
managed well lead to dissatisfaction in the employees when they are not satisfied. (Saiyadain, 2009)

Robert Katz Human Skills
The purpose of this essay is to understand and discuss the importance of human skills that was first
introduced by Robert Katz as well as the significance of customers and social media in a
management organisation. Management involves coordinating and overseeing the work activities of
others so that their activities are completed efficiently and effectively (Robbins & Coulter, 2014). In
his book Principles of Management with Cyril J. O'Donnell, Harold Koontz said management is the
art of getting things done through others and with formally organised groups. In a classic article in
the Harvard Business Review (1974), Katz came up with a theory that all the necessary skills
required in a modern organisation can be categorized into three divisions; ... Show more content on

Of the three, only human skills he noted would be required with great importance by all three main
levels of managers which would be top managers, middle managers and lower level managers. This
would be in contrast to technical skills and conceptual skills whereby the former is mostly required
in lower level managers while the latter is by top managers. Human skills is defined as the ability to
work well with other people individually and in a group (Robbins & Coulter, 2014). Analoui (1997,
1998) classified these abilities as people–related skills. However, this mass of skills consists of
teamwork, dealing with difficult situations, communications, and creating an organisational
environment. All of these specific skills are very synonymous to Katz's original concept. Many of
the responsibilities of managers such as interpersonal and informational skills that were identified
by (Mintzberg, 1973) may be broadly categorized as human skills. Executive's ability to work
effectively as a group member and to build cooperative effort within the team he leads (Katz, 1955).
In the case of Miss J, human skills are well needed in her daily work. For example, she must be able
to possess certain soft skills such as negotiation skills in order to reach a win–win conclusion with

Looking at your competitors financial statements you can determine several things about their
financial health through various mathematical equations. This will give you the perspective that
investors have on companies as well as how to take advantage of public information which could be
essential for operational managers to use in order to develop strategies for success. Corporate
finances can be confusing for most operational managers that have "little or no financial training,"
but it plays an important role in the decisions they make on a daily basis (Philips, 2010). This can
lead to an inefficient financial department as people try to avoid anything that involves finances.
This leads to overpowered financial departments which can lead to financial scandals and disasters
which can ruin the reputation of a business. Even a basic understanding of a budget and how the
financial department works will develop ease and efficiency throughout the organization. This also
helps operational managers make better decisions with regard to the finances. Even further

different disciplines: psychology, social psychology, sociology and anthropology. From the
psychology point of the OB, in our enterprise we could observe problems like boredom, frustration
and any other working conditions, which could lead to a decrease in the efficiency of work and
people's performance. From the social psychology aspect of the OB, in MGS.ldt we can focus on
measuring and understanding of our employees' attitudes and the impact that they have on one

The Economic theory tells that a firm may become less efficient if it becomes large. The additional
costs of being larger are called diseconomies of scale.

A Shift Leader For Walgreens Inc.
Introduction
I am a shift leader for Walgreens Inc. I work at one of the financially worst stores in the district. The
possibility of the store being close is even greater because the store cannot meet sale goals.
Naturally, the heaviest burden is places on the team members. For example, team members losing
hours, causing team members to lose sales, more responsibility placed on team members, and less
chances for team members to recharge and relax. Eventually, these changes in the workplace
dynamic could cause severe reductions in team members' morale, in an otherwise normally positive
and happy staff. Therefore, in this paper, I will provide ground breaking research that explains the
issues of low staff morale and propose ideas for coping ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...
When an employee can come to work, with a lot going on in their personal life, make people around
them happy, satisfied that is the real definition of high morale. Being more than content with one's
job and will be taken notice by the customers around you. For example, Vision Critical founder
Andrew Reid says, "Customers are starting to recognize their nonmonetary value and in return they
expect more than a receipt and a thank you". The customers will actually respond to the morale in
the work place. Customers will more than likely keep coming back if customer service is great.
Reasons having low Morale The largest problem at my store in particular is the employees are not
happy. When people happy sales are up, if people are unhappy sales are down. Founder and CEO of
Dotcom Distributions, Maria Hargety agrees, "No matter how big your brand becomes, your
company is nothing without the people who make it run." Walgreens is one of the top drug stores in
the company and yet this store is barely making an enough to stay open. Hargety is expressing that
brand does not matter, what matters are the people behind the brand. As long as, employees stay
unhappy, productivity will remain low. Another reason, behind low morale, is team members are

Critique of employee should be given on the important aspects and examples of each strength and

defensive if there is no credibility on what is given to the employee in the evaluation. The raise of a
salary of an employee usually has a short term impact on motivation, the overall views of the
manager has the greatest and long term impact on the employee to further improve the employee.
Managers should use the 360 degree evaluation process to provide adequate and excise information
to each employee. This process involves using multiple sources. The sources consist of peers, direct
reports, supervisors, customers, vendors, and human resources. The evaluation is done by the
complete circle of sources. The manager's involvements are to design, gather the information, and
communicate the evaluation to the employee. Managers using the 360 process will discover
strengths, weaknesses, and expectations that were not known. Overall, this process can allow an

there is very little formal, organized communication between all employees and supervisors which
is the communication challenge that I intend to focus on. This location of this dining establishment
has a very calm, casual environment which leads to less than effective communication. Generally,

Sample Cover Letter: Miami Dade College
July 26, 2013 Abdul Solan, Campus Network Services Manager Miami Dade College – West 3800

frequently learn, in several forms of media, of MDC's prestigious awards, commemorations, and
many other forms of acknowledgements and tributes for its operations, faculty and staff, students,
standards, and much more. The most recent news I had the honor of engaging in was in the form of
an email from the President of the College, Eduardo J. Padrón, which was titled "MDC Earns 'Great
Colleges to Work For' Distinction for Fifth Straight Year." It is news like this that just makes me
even more ambitious to earn a place in this wonderful institution. All of this makes me know that
MDC is an excellent place of employment on top of the fact that it is an excellent place for higher
learning. ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ...

  • 1. Kami Corporation CASE ANALYSIS OF KAMI CORPORATION Any type of business always requires effective communication. At any one point there is never over communication and as the case study of Kami Corporation pointed out there is a need for communication and cooperation. Expansion and growth of a business is always a positive. However, there are also many draw backs but with effective management, communication and all the components necessary for prosperity the business will definitely succeed. Kami Corporation is a new company formed from under the Mega Corporation umbrella. This new business venture was especially formed to assemble and produce Aiwa TV's. Aiwa is a subsidiary of Sony but their TV's has a weaker position than its ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... Productions were sometimes halted due to this. At times there would be all the materials but then it would be at customs and not at Kami's operating factory. There were also times when the products were already completed but could not be located at Kami's own warehouses. This was definitely not acceptable for operations to run smoothly. Clearly there was an existing in house problem and this problem needed to be addressed immediately but with some care and diligence. This had much to do with working unitedly and having effective communication. Working unitedly would be in terms of team members playing their roles in a very professional and effective manner. Attitude towards each other and for the types of work is very important. At the start it is shown since orders for materials were out sourced and then imported. Orders were placed from Kami only through Mega Corporation which until the end when the parts need clearance involves Kami. Kami then would have to be very vigilant in regards to following up with orders that were placed. At times there were wrong orders but then even when products were completed Kami was not so keen on warehouse storage. A warehouse should be very organized and this was not the case for Kami Corporation. Finished products were mixed with rejected components and waste materials. Adequate space and storage to have these finished products be organized properly were available only if everything had order ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 2. Montvale Dairy Queen Since the age of 15 I have worked at the Dairy Queen in Montvale, NJ. The Montvale Dairy Queen was opened in 1957 by a family with the last name of Stoll and since then it has remained in their family. Unlike a lot of Dairy Queens that are indoors the one I work out is essentially a free standing "shack" that uses windows to receive people's orders and where people receive their ice cream and other treats. In the owner's eyes, family is very important which makes working at this specific location difficult at times. Most of the employees at the Montvale Dairy Queen have had some sort of family member currently working on property or have had family members work there in the past. There have been times that family issues have been brought ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... They have always given me things to look forward to as well as made the day interesting and have always made me feel welcomed. Overall the management style at The Montvale Dairy Queen may be a little hectic and are not always ethical but in my opinion the negative aspects don't outweigh the positive aspects of working at DQ. I still love each and every one of the managers for different reasons and I have never felt immediately threatened by any of their actions but I understand why it may concern other employees. Due to the positive as well as negative management practices I have learned a lot about the correct way to manage a food and beverage establishment, specifically a family owned one throughout the past several ...

  • 3. Why An Individual Colleague Has Difficult Behavior Running any business has its own challenges; however, most companies encounter difficult employees, how can this issues be solved? First and foremost understanding why an individual colleague has difficult behaviour. I have chosen to analysis why difficult staffs could be problematical to any business. How does the role of a manager/leader play within the business to have effective employees, whom can work as team player and perform at high standard? Furthermore looking into the negative impact it has on a business and what could be the solution of having great working efficient staffs. I based my research finding on google books, as well as using online articles. Firstly, every business establishment has leaders whom play major role in, managing productive staffs. The managers must have effective communication skills; for staffs to understand their roles within the business, what their daily duties are. Instruction must be given as to when deadline must be implemented. Adequate tools and equipment 's must be provided, for example within the retail industry merchandise products must be replenished on the shop floor and never should it be out of stock as this will prevail the input of staffs to feel lack of motivation, therefore the employees will call in sick rather than go into work place, that has no stocks to sell to customers. If staffs do not apprehend the role of their jobs and responsibilities, these might bring on stress and inadequate of performing daily tasks. ... Get more on HelpWriting.net ...
  • 4. Manhattan Country Club Job Analysis For our final team project our group has decided to analyze and look at a Food and Beverage Manager at the Manhattan Country Club. According to the Bureau of Labor and Statistics in 2014 there were 305,000 Food and Beverage Managers that made an average salary of $48,690 per year. Some of the important duties of the job we found were overseeing employees to hire, fire, and train them. They need to ensure employees are complying with health/food safety rules. It is also important for Food and Beverage Managers to take food and beverage complaints and handle them properly. They also need to schedule staff and assign duties and responsible to each person. A big part of any job is also dealing with budgets and managing payroll. This job entails ... Show more content on Helpwriting.net ... If we are looking to fill the position of a Food and Beverage Manager it would be particularly smart to recruit from the inside. We think it would be in the company's best interest to recruit from the inside because in the restaurant industry is hard to get thrown into the environment and dynamic when you are on the outside. When recruiting internally it is easiest to let employees know there is a job opening by word of mouth. We think it is important to send a notice out to all employees to ensure they all have a fair opportunity to apply for the position if they feel fit. This is a good idea to recruit internally because it shows everyone inside the company that they can move forward and advance if they meet the standards. It would be typical for an assistant manager to advance into the position of an active manager. When we are recruiting internally it is important to keep employees feelings in check. Jealousy could arise and it has to be clear that everyone has a chance to apply for the position, but not everyone is as qualified as we need them to be. Some of the criteria we need for this position is experience, problem solving skills, and knowledge of profit and loss statements. ServSafe certifications with alcohol and food safety would be helpful. It is also important to be educated with CPR. Among safety concerns it is important to have physical qualifications for the job. These qualifications include being able to lift at least 50 pounds, and being able to be on feet for around 12 or more hours a day. This job can be very demanding at times. It might be unusual for some of these physical demands, but since we are dealing with a smaller staff sometimes situations arise where help isn't always going to be available.

It is also important that the candidate obtain the characteristics of someone who would strongly align with the culture of Tanglewood, since this is a major contributor to the success of the company. Another consideration for Tanglewood is to offer more fringe benefits, such as accrued paid time off, for this position in order to retain a higher percentage of employees in the future. It is an apparent trend within Tanglewood to promote within its current employee base, so in maintaining this company feature, we suggest implementing training and development for the shift leader, assistant manager, and store manager positions. These positions reveal the least amount of turnover within the company and can easily be maintained by promoting within the company. In order to do so, it is important for higher titles within the company to take on leadership roles and encourage others to learn, make suggestions, and contribute to the daily processes within the company in order to prepare future managers for promotions. Additionally, after observing the gap analysis, it appears that the largest gap among the management titles exists within the department manager positions.

We will not be wrong, if we say that the OB is a whole science, because it incorporates four different disciplines: psychology, social psychology, sociology and anthropology. From the psychology point of the OB, in our enterprise we could observe problems like boredom, frustration and any other working conditions, which could lead to a decrease in the efficiency of work and people's performance. From the social psychology aspect of the OB, in MGS.ldt we can focus on measuring and understanding of our employees' attitudes and the impact that they have on one another. However, a good enterprise does not have separately working individuals, but well working and cohesive teams. Here comes the role of the sociology side of the OB. Thanks to it, we can notice if there are any conflicts, communicational misunderstandings or we could just examine the employees' relations. And last but not least, the anthropology discipline comes. In this opened world, where people from different nationalities are working together, the anthropology stands as a door, which could open or close the acceptance on the workplace. From this particular aspect of the OB, in MGS we are learning about human beings: their activities and fundamental values, so as to eliminate the barrier between the different cultures and to create friendly and enjoyable working atmosphere.

The customers will actually respond to the morale in the work place. Customers will more than likely keep coming back if customer service is great.

Walgreens is one of the top drug stores in the company and yet this store is barely making an enough to stay open. Hargety is expressing that brand does not matter, what matters are the people behind the brand. As long as, employees stay unhappy, productivity will remain low.

Communication Challenges In The Workplace Research Paper Communication challenges can be seen within various different organizations, and generally people are involved with more than one organization. This leads to encounters with ineffective communication on a daily basis for many individuals. Throughout this paper, I am going to discuss a communication challenge for an organization that I am a part of, and an intervention plan for that communication challenge. As a student manager at one of the dining locations on the University of Wisconsin– Eau Claire's campus, I think that communication between managers is less effective than it could be. In becoming a student manager rather than a regular student employee, I had roughly two shifts where I was trained into the differences. The regular student employees, are not informed of who is a student manager, and there is no identifier for both other employees or customers other than through verbal communication from the student manger themselves. Also, there is very little formal, organized communication between all employees and supervisors which is the communication challenge that I intend to focus on. This location of this dining establishment has a very calm, casual environment which leads to less than effective communication. Generally, the employees communicate in a way that you would with family or friends, rather than what you typically would see between coworkers and a supervisor.
