A service company is a specific business that helps to produce income by delivering services without selling any physical products. In the modern world, there exist different types of service type of business like consulting, education, entertainment, and media. Yes, I agree with the statement that many of the organizations are traditionally known for superiority intangibles, for example, IBM in computers and Xerox in copiers. For example, most companies like the manufacturing organizations, in the present situation they are describing themselves as service enterprises. Most of the organizations are feeling themselves as service companies because customers prefer to purchase items from the enterprise that delivers excellent customer service (Iacobucci, 2016). Initially, when the organizations consider themselves as a service organization, there is a need to consider major factors like intangibility of output. This is because service companies deliver intangible output which is not an easy activity.
For a business organization to declare as a service the company, the firm not only requires a specific percentage of service instead the firm requires to successfully resolve the issues experienced by consumers. Service mainly includes an intangible product that involves performance or effort and this could not be processed. The organizations delivering services are intangible which may include personal services, rental goods, of items owned by consumers. Service organizations consist of technical and marketing expertise to attract customers. Most of the service organizations determine themselves as service companies by considering factors like intangibility, the involvement of buyers, homogeneity, and inventory. The intangibility is complex to be conceptualized where creative visualization is most important for a business organization to deal with customers (Kotler, Keller, Brady, Goodman, & Hansen, 2019). The service performance surely depends on performance-related attributes that could be measured only when individuals experience purchase experience.
The service organizations mainly focus to deliver exclusive services that involve various factors, this might include key activities. The service definition is identified to be important while offering service management. To declare a firm as a service organization, the initial focus should be on customers (Iacobucci, 2016). The organizations should ensure to develop a vision where customers are primarily targeted individuals. If the customer's problems are resolved and customers achieve satisfaction with company offerings, then firms could be able to declare themselves as a service organization. For example, IBM is described as a service-based organization that offers global services to individuals across the world. By describing themselves as a service organization, IBM services ensure to create new business revenues for the company. IBM is a service-based organization and this is s.

Uber is primarily a service that offers similar products that are synonymous with those provided by taxis, but its products are differentiated by the integration of modern technology in which there is the use of the mobile app to link both the customers and the drivers. The Uber application is compatible Android, I phones and windows phone which helps it in running its operations excellently and smoothly. It uses cashless technology when it comes to handling issues related to service payments. In the current market set up, it is clear that Uber offers low-cost services as compared to its rivals in the market and also it has the best-experienced drivers who help it to run the business. The rise of internet and outsourcing services has motivated companies willing to come up with creative ways to serve customers in more efficient ways of improving the business strategies of the firm. Stone, B. (2017). The upstarts:
Propose a new product or service for the new company division. The division should be customer-focused with an innovative mission statement. Ensure you are differentiating your product or service.
In this paper, we are going to introduce a new product which is an app that deals with parcels delivery. The Uber Company has only two apps that help it to carry its day to day operations which are the app for drivers and the app for passengers. For this assignment, I would like to introduce a new product which is an app for delivery of parcels. Uber app is a product that would see it encounter stiff competition from rival to become the best taxi and parcel delivery company in the market. It would be in line with its innovative mission to expand its primary operations to cater for all sections of the public transport and parcel delivery which is still an essential market gap that can be explored. The parcel apps would see the company grow into the higher level with enhanced local and international parcel delivery at a tap of a phone button. The service charge for the parcels would be cashless as it would take into account online payment methods just as those opting for the other two apps operated by the company. (Mowery, N., Poling, S. R., & Reavis, P. (1994). Customer focused quality)
Describe how the division addresses customer needs and achieves competitive advantage.
This app is essential in the addressing customer needs regarding fast parcel delivery both locally and international. There have been a lot of issues that have been related to parcel such as their high cost of parcel delivery both locally and globally, others refer to losing essential products in the process of trying to send documents and other relevant products to friends, workmates and family members throughout. By introducing such an app, it would help to curb and downplay this disadvantage and improve more customer delivery service. An integrated parcel management would off ...

Why Corporations Need to Return to a Focus on Customer Experience in 2023.pdfChris Marocchi
A look at how much corporations have wavered in their commitment to Customer Service over the past few decades and what trends are emerging in 2023 that will help companies willing to recommit themselves to offering an outstanding customer experience to their customer base.
The Future of Customer Service: From Personal, to Self, to Crowd ServiceSteven Van Belleghem
The corporate world is at full stretch. On the one hand companies must meet ever-growing expectations with regard to customer experience, while on the other hand there’s a need for economic efficiency. The ultimate challenge for the customer service of the future consists in offering improved customer service at a lower cost.
In the years to come, every company will question its customer processes. Any sensible company will strive to create the ideal combination between efficiency and the perfect customer experience. Players who are only active online, such as Amazon.com and Booking.com, boast a highly efficient customer process. Even though their customers rarely come into contact with actual people they still provide a very satisfactory customer experience. Traditional companies have a history of a personal service burdened with a heavy cost structure.
To avoid overstretching, traditional companies must invest in digitization and in forging a personal (emotional) connection with the customer. Technology is opening up new possibilities in this regard but customers also like personal contact. This combination is shaping the future of customer service: a shift to self-service while still keeping things personal. Also, the service package is expanded by involving the customers themselves in the process. The customer-helps-customer philosophy (crowd service) enables companies to be more efficient and improve their service without losing sight of the human aspect. Fifty-five percent of consumers like the idea of other consumers helping them and 58% are prepared to help others . The customer is ready for crowd service.
This paper was written based on my own research (in collaboration with SSI and translation partner No problem!), desk research and discussions with companies. This paper takes a closer look at new trends and evolutions in the field of customer service.
Discussion 1This week of assigned reading of the course market.docxcharlieppalmer35273
Discussion 1
This week of assigned reading of the course marketing management mainly focused on brands. It effectively discussed the marketing framework that includes key topics such as 5Cs, STP, and 4Ps. I found these concepts presented in this week of reading interest because they provide an effective focus on the brand of a firm, understand the brand image of a firm and undertake significant actions to control the risks and promote the brand recognition of a firm. It offers effective focus into the customers of a firm, company, understands the context, collaborations, and competitors of a firm (Iacobucci, 2016). It also offers to focus on the segmentation of customers, targeting and positioning, product price, and place and develop effective strategies to promote the products and enhance the brand reputation of a firm and achieve good results. It also tells the importance of a brand for the company and the different types of functions the brands serve and associations and the various types of brand strategies. It helps to gain significant knowledge into various brands and develop effective strategies to promote the brand and increase the sales of goods and services of a firm effectively and assess the quality of a brand effectively. It is noticed that the brand is a portfolio of qualities that are linked with the name of a brand. It invokes the images of the brand and enables the company to promote the brand and control the image of a brand in the marketplace. It also helps to shape a product and package, make the color and symbol of the brand logo of a firm, and reflect the products and service offerings of a firm effectively. The marketer selects the name of a brand to increase the benefits and increase communication with the customers. The brands of a firm can be local, global, co branded. It offered effective insight into the personalities of a brand, experiences of a brand affective, behavioral and intellectual, communities and strategies, and extensions. These help to gain effective knowledge into brand strategies and develop effective tactics and promote brand well.
Based on the observation of methodology following by Inter brand to evaluate the brands offering by it is effective. It is following forward methodology and offering both the local and global brands to serve customers well (Interbrand, 2020). I will improve the brand of a firm by identifying the key weaknesses in the brand, identifying personalities, customer views and services, and developing effective brand strategies. One of my favorite brands is Apple because the strategies following it are effective and reflect the products and services of it and provides benefits for the customer. The brand I hate is Redmi. The main reason I hate this brand is that methodology and strategies followed by this brand are not helpful for the customers and quality is not good.

Discussion 1The brand I choose to evaluate a communications audi.docxcharlieppalmer35273
Discussion 1
The brand I choose to evaluate a communications audit for is the company Nike. Nike engages in the design and development, marketing and sale of athletic footwear, apparel, accessories, equipment, and services. It currently operates domestically and internationally with a strong presence in countries in North America, Europe, Africa and parts of Asia. Nike currently utilize a multitude of online and offline communication methods through outlets such as internet, Social Media Advertising, Television as well as Brick and Mortar physical locations.
In regards to internet communication Nike's website Nike.com has generated over 82 million views in August alone, with an average visit Durant of about 4 minutes. Nike.com currently ranks as 4th among Fashion and Apparel websites and 194 in the United States in regards to website traffic, according to similarweb.com.
Nike also has a powerful social media presence, currently holding over 318 social media accounts spanning over major platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Pinterest, and LinkedIn. (Ravi, 2018) Even more interesting is that Nike segments separates pages for its products based on the audience. For example, Nike features an instagram sole for US Football (@nikeusfootball) this page currently had a following of 2.5M, a page for basketball (@nikebasketball) having a following of 11.2M. This segmentation of accounts allows for Nike to narrow down its marketing and communication to a target audience.
Nike also uses television advertising as a strong arm of communication. The utilization of advertising through television during sports broadcasts that allows the communication to be streamlined directly to its core audience. For example, advertising athletic basketball apparel during basketball events. Nike even shares it stance on social justice issues when they recently debuted a ad in support of Colin Kaepernick, this campaign are reported to have raised income by 10 percent (Youn, 2018).
Lastly, Nike uses physical locations use to communicate its brand awareness. According to Statista.com Nike currently operates a total of 1,152 retail stores, a rise from 674 in 2009. Outside of Nike stores, Nike also sells merchandise using third party retail stores. Some of the largest retail stores being Macy's, Dick's Sporting Goods and Kohls, among others.
Overall, Nike had a strong communication presence. They are heavily involved in Social Media, TV Advertising as well as having a strong physical presence. It is hard to surf the web or shop without seeing some sort of Nike Brand.

How do you know something?
Babbie (2016) stated, "social theory has to do with what is, not with what should be. For many centuries, however, social theory did not distinguish between these two orientations. Social philosophers liberally mixed their observations of what happened around them, their speculations about why, and their ideas about how things ought to be. Although modern social researchers may do the same from time to time, as scientists they focus on how things actually are and why" (pg. 9).

Question:
Congratulations! You have recently been promoted and are the company’s new Human Resources Manager! You have offices in several countries, so how would you evaluate different compensation packages for employees who are located throughout the world?
To be elevated to the organization's Human Resource Manager is respect, however, a vocation which accompanies its own obligations. If I am hired as a Human Resource Manager for a worldwide organization, it will be my duty to deal with the HR needs of all business regions in all regions. Organization domains in various geographic regions might be in various periods of development. Representative remuneration will rely upon numerous elements incorporating organization involved in a locale (Gómez-Mejía, L. R., Balkin, D., and Cardy, R. 2017). The conventional ways to deal with pay have their advantages and disadvantages. For instance, conventional remuneration will mean a standard compensation, costs, and recompenses, motivators, benefits, and rewards. The advantage of this structure is that it is straightforward and can be effectively comprehended by all administrators over the undertaking. The drawback is this doesn't think about that a few regions will have low development; thus, the workers won't get a reasonable chance to gain impetuses. This will, thus, influence their dedication to the organization. I will attempt to comprehend the market and the potential for development for the organization. I will at that point have gatherings with business to shape a compensation structure that best suits the need of the organization around there for that year. I will likewise remain discerning that year on year the organization circumstance will change however the representative bundle can't be essentially changed. Subsequently, a neighborhood procedure will be tremendously required. For instance, if the organization is beginning its business in a nation, I would frame a methodology to pay more than the normal market rate, with the goal that we get the best representatives in that market. When the organization has accomplished some piece of the overall industry, I would decrease the quality of the representatives and turn the compensation structure to an increasingly impetus-based structure for the workers.

It currently operates domestically and internationally with a strong presence in countries in North America, Europe, Africa and parts of Asia. Nike currently utilize a multitude of online and offline communication methods through outlets such as internet, Social Media Advertising, Television as well as Brick and Mortar physical locations.

Nike also has a powerful social media presence, currently holding over 318 social media accounts spanning over major platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, Youtube, Pinterest, and LinkedIn. (Ravi, 2018) Even more interesting is that Nike segments separates pages for its products based on the audience. For example, Nike features an instagram sole for US Football (@nikeusfootball) this page currently had a following of 2.5M, a page for basketball (@nikebasketball) having a following of 11.2M. This segmentation of accounts allows for Nike to narrow down its marketing and communication to a target audience.
Nike also uses television advertising as a strong arm of communication. The utilization of advertising through television during sports broadcasts that allows the communication to be streamlined directly to its core audience. For example, advertising athletic basketball apparel during basketball events. Nike even shares it stance on social justice issues when they recently debuted a ad in support of Colin Kaepernick, this campaign are reported to have raised income by 10 percent (Youn, 2018).
Lastly, Nike uses physical locations use to communicate its brand awareness. According to Statista.com Nike currently operates a total of 1,152 retail stores, a rise from 674 in 2009. Outside of Nike stores, Nike also sells merchandise using third party retail stores. Some of the largest retail stores being Macy's, Dick's Sporting Goods and Kohls, among others.
Overall, Nike had a strong communication presence. They are heavily involved in Social Media, TV Advertising as well as having a strong physical presence. It is hard to surf the web or shop without seeing some sort of Nike Brand.

Ben Goldacre: Battling Bad Science
How do you know something?
Babbie (2016) stated, "social theory has to do with what is, not with what should be. For many centuries, however, social theory did not distinguish between these two orientations. Social philosophers liberally mixed their observations of what happened around them, their speculations about why, and their ideas about how things ought to be. Although modern social researchers may do the same from time to time, as scientists they focus on how things actually are and why" (pg. 9).

To be elevated to the organization's Human Resource Manager is respect, however, a vocation which accompanies its own obligations. If I am hired as a Human Resource Manager for a worldwide organization, it will be my duty to deal with the HR needs of all business regions in all regions. Organization domains in various geographic regions might be in various periods of development. Representative remuneration will rely upon numerous elements incorporating organization involved in a locale (Gómez-Mejía, L. R., Balkin, D., and Cardy, R. 2017). The conventional ways to deal with pay have their advantages and disadvantages. For instance, conventional remuneration will mean a standard compensation, costs, and recompenses, motivators, benefits, and rewards. The advantage of this structure is that it is straightforward and can be effectively comprehended by all administrators over the undertaking. The drawback is this doesn't think about that a few regions will have low development; thus, the workers won't get a reasonable chance to gain impetuses. This will, thus, influence their dedication to the organization. I will attempt to comprehend the market and the potential for development for the organization. I will at that point have gatherings with business to shape a compensation structure that best suits the need of the organization around there for that year. I will likewise remain discerning that year on year the organization circumstance will change however the representative bundle can't be essentially changed. Subsequently, a neighborhood procedure will be tremendously required. For instance, if the organization is beginning its business in a nation, I would frame a methodology to pay more than the normal market rate, with the goal that we get the best representatives in that market. When the organization has accomplished some piece of the overall industry, I would decrease the quality of the representatives and turn the compensation structure to an increasingly impetus-based structure for the workers.

Rania :
Explain the implications of globalization
There are several implications when it comes to globalization, some can be good, and some can be bad. I will first start off with the good implications of globalization, such a as the enormous rise in economic growth, workable trading throughout nations, technology advancement and even introducing diversity into new countries. This means introducing global citizenship since valuing diversity is one of the most important outcomes of being a global citizen. Nevertheless , here are the bad implications of globalization such as diseases that spread across borders( note which we are currently dealing with) , terrorism, and threats to global environment (Bhargava, 2006). Having the trading with other nation I feel might go wrong , because the outcomes could be very bad and tragic and can lead to the economic and sociological destruction of one nation.

According to the International Labour Organization (ILO),4 global unemployment is set to rise in 2014, with more than 200 million people without work across the world. Youth unemployment in the Middle East and North Africa will remain at close to 30% until 2017. In parts of southern Europe, between 33% and 50% of young people eligible to work are unemployed. Overall unemployment in the euro area is forecast to remain at close to 12% into 2015. Unemployment, especially long-term unemployment, often leads to discouragement and loss of human capital. It is associated with
physical and mental ill-health, imposing continuing burdens on health and welfare systems and ultimately having a negative impact on growth. Persistent youth unemployment in particular has a scarring effect, increasing unemployment risks later in life and depressing lifetime earnings. In 2012 the Global Agenda Council on Employment and Social Protection5 warned that, without decisive action, the cyclical unemployment that followed the crisis could very quickly become long-term, structural unemployment. That risk is now becoming a worrying reality for many.
While job creation is essential, policy-makers must give equal attention to the quality of employment. Low quality work is rarely sustainable work.
The core message of this document is that decision- makers must give the jobs crisis the attention it deserves. Employment must be the priority for the.

Question:
Discuss the following statement: “Health care costs are out of control in the United States, and increasing conflicts between employers and employees are likely as employers try to reduce their health benefits costs.
As compared to other different countries, health care prices are very high in the United States. Moreover, health care prices have risen very faster as compared to the annual income. In the year 2017, the health care costs in the United States were $3.6 trillion and due to this, the health care became the largest industry in the country (Boughey et al., 2017). It is equal to 17.8 per cent of GDP ( Gross Domestic Product). in 1960, the health care used up 4% of income as compared to the 6% of income in 2013. in addition to this, lifestyle changes and government policy are the major reason for the massive increase in health care costs. Chronic diseases like heart disease and diabetes have increased as well as these diseases are accountable for eighty-five percent of the prices for health care. Because of the huge number of Medicare patients the health care costs are rising day by day in the country. Apart from this, high - interest related credit card debt has been risen up to 34 percent because of the increased health care prices. In addition to this, the non- market and market factors are the major reasons for the higher health care costs because these factors which determine the pricing. In the U.S, the private and public sources offered health insurance based coverage. Besides these, the health care costs have been increased because of the ageing and growing population, patients avoiding care, lack of transparency and inefficiency, increasing health insurance based premiums, increased ambulatory prices and rise in certain chronic illnesses (Dragioti et al., 2018). As well as the health care costs are increasing day by day because of the increased prices for emergency and outpatient room care or out of pocket prices.

Discussion 1In today’s society, certain types of cultural barrie.docxcharlieppalmer35273
Discussion 1
In today’s society, certain types of cultural barriers in healthcare have the power to negatively impact outcomes and can lead to expensive consequences for health systems. Cultural competency refers to the ability to interact with people across cultures. When used in healthcare, it focuses on being able to care for patients with diverse values, beliefs, and behaviors. Today, the delivery of healthcare needs to be tailored to patients’ social, cultural and linguistic needs. According to the health care service company Cigna, cultural competency in healthcare can overcome health disparities. Some of these disparities include language barriers, cultural beliefs and practices, medical bias, variations in care access and quality, and low health literacy (Husson University, 2019).
The Purnell Model of Clinical Competence is a mid-range theory that is used for the research examining culture and within the context of culture and values. This theory was created by Larry Purnell and it was developed based on his observations of undergraduate nursing students and how they would interact with patients that are from different cultural backgrounds. In the United States, culturally competency is a key area for nurses and advanced practitioners (Marzilli, 2017).
Having the ability to communicate effectively with patients and their families is key for good patient care. The importance of communicating effectively in cross-cultural encounters is necessary. Cultural competence includes providing effective health care across diverse cultures by working collaboratively and communicating effectively. Advanced practice nurses and physicians who are aware of their own and their patients’ cultural backgrounds, along with the values that are often implicit in current medical models, are better able to achieve mutual understanding within the patient encounter and to focus on culturally appropriate health care interventions (Ladha et al., 2018)
With the Purnell Model, all aspects and domains of this model work by affecting one another, rather than standing alone. With this model there are specific cultural domains that include, heritage, communication, family roles and organization, workforce issues, bicultural ecology, high risk behaviors, nutrition, childbearing, death rituals, spirituality, health care practices and the healthcare practitioner (National Association for School Nurses, 2019).
As nurse practitioners, understanding the impact that cultural competence and interaction with your patients are key in quality patient care and trust. Cultural competency is relevant to healthcare education due to the fact that minorities will constitute 54% of the total United States population by 2050. The Purnell Model helps by evaluating the impact of interventions such as service learning and the change on cultural competence following the specific intervention. Research involving the Purnell Model is used as the theoretical framework for determining the h.

Demand-based growth strategies try to create a long-term increase in output and employment (Amacher, 2019). This type of growth focuses on the behaviors of all consumers who purchase goods & services in the domestic economy (Strickland, 2012). The effects are argued among classical economists who claim they are only effective in the short-run, while Keynesians argue the short-run is actually very long; therefore, making demand-based growth the most effective tool (Amacher, 2019)
Supply based growth focuses on the behavior of all firms who provide goods & services in the domestic economy (Strickland, 2012). Changes in capital stock, improvement in the size or quality of the labor force, additional natural resources, improvements in productivity, or technological advances can all affect the AS curve (Amacher, 2019). Unfortunately, no matter how much you try to influence business by adjusting the factors that might change the AS curve, there’s no guarantee business will respond accordingly (Strickland, 2012). This makes supply-based growth efforts unpredictable (Strickland, 2012).

Music and dance are similar because both are able to communicate ideas and emotions without the use of words. In the absence of a vocal part, musicians create sounds that evoke certain emotions. Composers and performers do this through different elements of music like melody, harmony, and rhythm. Dancers can also communicate emotions, ideas, or even a story through their movements, and these movements are often tied to musical elements like rhythm.

Discussion 1Discussing the conditions that are necessary for su.docxcharlieppalmer35273
Discussion 1:
Discussing the conditions that are necessary for successful innovation:
We have three different conditions for making successful innovation. They are 1) Motivation, 2) Support, 3) Direction [McKeen & Smith (2015)].
1. Motivation: It encourages the people by establishing various rewards for innovation. Many people in the organization work hard for the best outputs. By the pressures of the team leaders or higher authority people, they tend to demotivate and get discouraged. They cannot work for creating new innovations by the extra pressures. So, the organization should create a new innovative idea by giving rewards and extra incentives for all the employees who work hard in resolving the risks. This can boost up the confidence levels of the employees and result in great outputs [Johnston (2017)]. Every organization can have different types of rewards given for their employees. Some of them may give rewards like tickets, books, executive citations and recognition days, etc. Some may give the opportunity to play and work with upcoming new technologies.
2. Support: This should create support by creating an effective infrastructure for which it can sustain the innovation. As the motivation phase can encourage the employee for creating the innovation, they should also start providing support for the innovation. Not only the motivation, but also support helps in creating efficient innovation. Here, we have two different strategies followed in supporting the innovation. They are stated as follows:
· Insulate: This strategy helps all the organizations to create the innovation centers. These are the centers that act as the one-stop destination for all the common problems.
· Incubate: This strategy helps to keep all the centers within specific lines of business (LOBs) [McKeen & Smith (2015)].
The centers that are established will support all the innovations. Supporting the innovation may involve some tasks like providing the access for all the organizations that deal with them, they should provide the effective infrastructure, the social interaction with other organizations, various functions that can support for development of any particular organization [Minshall, Stefan, Mortara (2014)].
3. Direction: It should manage all the innovations that are created with different strategies. Successful innovations always have a great impact [JD (2009)]. Learning is the most important task to do in any organization. Learning all the new strategical ways to present an innovation leads to best results. We have three different ways of strategical learning that employees in every organization should follow. They are as follows:
· Always we need to link the innovation to the customer value for having a better and clear result. This approach can easily focus on the customer pain points (CPPs) [McKeen & Smith (2015)]. The identification of these pain points gives us many potential solutions.
· Always we should link all the experimentation.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts.

Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202
Discussion 1A service company is a specific business that helps .docx
1. Discussion 1
A service company is a specific business that helps to produce
income by delivering services without selling any physical
products. In the modern world, there exist different types of
service type of business like consulting, education,
entertainment, and media. Yes, I agree with the statement that
many of the organizations are traditionally known for
superiority intangibles, for example, IBM in computers and
Xerox in copiers. For example, most companies like the
manufacturing organizations, in the present situation they are
describing themselves as service enterprises. Most of the
organizations are feeling themselves as service companies
because customers prefer to purchase items from the enterprise
that delivers excellent customer service (Iacobucci, 2016).
Initially, when the organizations consider themselves as a
service organization, there is a need to consider major factors
like intangibility of output. This is because service companies
deliver intangible output which is not an easy activity.
For a business organization to declare as a service the company,
the firm not only requires a specific percentage of service
instead the firm requires to successfully resolve the issues
experienced by consumers. Service mainly includes an
intangible product that involves performance or effort and this
could not be processed. The organizations delivering services
are intangible which may include personal services, rental
goods, of items owned by consumers. Service organizations
consist of technical and marketing expertise to attract
customers. Most of the service organizations determine
themselves as service companies by considering factors like
intangibility, the involvement of buyers, homogeneity, and
inventory. The intangibility is complex to be conceptualized
where creative visualization is most important for a business
organization to deal with customers (Kotler, Keller, Brady,
Goodman, & Hansen, 2019). The service performance surely
2. depends on performance-related attributes that could be
measured only when individuals experience purchase
experience.
The service organizations mainly focus to deliver exclusive
services that involve various factors, this might include key
activities. The service definition is identified to be important
while offering service management. To declare a firm as a
service organization, the initial focus should be on
customers (Iacobucci, 2016). The organizations should ensure to
develop a vision where customers are primarily targeted
individuals. If the customer's problems are resolved and
customers achieve satisfaction with company offerings, then
firms could be able to declare themselves as a service
organization. For example, IBM is described as a service-based
organization that offers global services to individuals across the
world. By describing themselves as a service organization, IBM
services ensure to create new business revenues for the
company. IBM is a service-based organization and this is
successful because it offers various services to customers based
on the priority. The organization declared themselves as service
companies because they didn’t calculate the percentage of
service delivered to consumers. Instead, they were able to
achieve excellent customer satisfaction with improved services.

Discussion 2
Marketing management
The company believes that a product is something that will
benefit customers. Marketing can be thought of as an exchange
whereby a company offers something and the customer offers
something in return and this case, payment. Both the company
3. and the customer seek something of value and both offer a trade
(Iacobucci, 2015). The company can make a product or service
more attractive and the customer can be good by being loyal or
purchasing every time. The company may decide to make the
package less attractive and customers too by demanding
customized attention.
Since it is difficult to get a new customer than retaining,
marketers have realized the advantages of moving from short-
term-oriented purchase transaction exchanges to long-term
relationship marketing. Customer satisfaction and loyalty are
the beginning of the repeated nature of a relational exchange
(Iacobucci, 2015). These interactions fruition and strengthen
database marketing systems and customer relationship
management. To strengthen customer relationships, marketers
put together a combination of goods and services.
Some products seem to be pure goods and some services seem
to be pure services while other purchases seem to be a mix of a
good and a service like leasing a car. Services are intangible
because you may not go home with them. The continuum of
goods-to-services is related to the concepts of search, credence,
and experience (Iacobucci, 2015). Before purchase, the search
qualities may be evaluated as the customer learns about
competitive offerings. Attributes of experience require
consumption or trial before evaluation. Credence qualities are
difficult to judge and require one to trust that the quality is
good. Experience and search qualities dominate for goods while
for services credence and experience qualities dominate.
Services are produced and consumed at the same time. Goods
are manufactured and inventoried in warehouses for distribution
while services are created in the presence of a customer.
Services are more variable than goods (Iacobucci, 2015). Goods
manufacturers can set quality standards for the goods because
they are produced by machines but for a service provider,
experiences vary across customers. Service marketing exchange
takes place between the service provider who represents the
company and the customer. Customer service interaction can be
4. frustrating or fruitful because the customer and frontline
representative have different and changing abilities and needs.
Marketers can affect the satisfaction level of a customer or
dissatisfaction through the good or bad value-addeds. A mistake
can be made by a company by being myopic when defining their
core business that focuses on its product offerings (Iacobucci,
2015). Myopia may not be the problem if the business is good
but a problem if the business is bad. Product lines can be pruned
especially if customers do not distinguish between brands or
brands can be supplemented if a company realizes an
opportunity for producing a better brand than that of
competitors that customers can value.
Question.
This may be true because both IBM and Xerox produce goods
that are then sold to customers worldwide. They have done this
over the years and can, therefore, describe themselves to be
primary service provider companies. For a company to declare
itself a service organization, it must meet the desires and needs
of customers by focusing on the characteristics that they desire.
A company must compare itself with its competitors. The
company should also charge customers in a palatable manner.
Also, a company should give attention to the process of
recruiting, training, and job design in making up an employee
management system. Employees must be motivated to achieve
excellence to help the company achieve excellence. Provided a
company provides its services throughout the world, it means
their strategies and mission are good.

Summary
Car mechanics makes up one of the most undervalued jobs in
the country. this is because people have the common perception
that anybody can become a mechanic based on its common
knowledge of cars. The existence of factors such as online
tutorials and other basic aspects makes the practice highly
common, as it does not focus on the common interest of the
people. The social class that the people have placed in terms of
the profession is a contributing factor behind its decreased
value. People have the common view that it does not have a
precise social class that appeals to the members of the public
making it a profession that people do not focus on. Car
mechanics play an important part in the society as they ensure
that order is equally promoted by ensuring that basic societal
practices such as ensuring that cars are moving is accomplished.
The wages and salaries that the mechanics receive is a key
factor that makes it to be undervalued. It is evident that most of
them receive wages rather than salaries. They are paid for the
work done rather than waiting for the end of a specified period
for them to receive compensation. It is a basic practice that
ensures that order is observed in terms of application and other
basic measures. Mechanics do not operate under strict timeline.
The availability of the cars to be repaired determines their
overall flow of order in terms of work. There are no parameters
in terms of gender and any person can be a mechanic. Social
stereotypes that it is a work reserved for men is a practice that
makes it contain men. The garages lack a precise social
structure and it is a key issue that makes the career to be
undervalued.

RE: Role of car mechanics
Greetings, Professor Bakeman:
The existence of vehicles in the society plays a huge role in
enabling people to move from place to place. It is a key factor
that make the average person to have the ability to freely move
without any constraints. The availability of personal cars is a
promotional aspect that cannot be ignored in this respective
case based on private privileges that comes with the initiative.
Car mechanics make up a significant profession in the society
that plays a basic role in the society. They make important
contributions on how cars could be maintained and made a
convenient tool. However, the profession is highly undervalued
despite of the importance that it plays in the society. People
seem to think it's a simple technical course, but it plays an
important role. The paper discusses why car mechanics are
undervalued in the society.
Common View about Car Mechanics
The fact that anybody can be a car mechanic is a key
7. contributing factor that contributes to people undervaluing the
profession. It is evident that one can teach him or herself to
become a car mechanics. The factor depends on how interested
the person is on learning and the appropriate practices that the
individual can embrace to come up with an appropriate measure
that focuses on the interest of the people. Today, most people
take online tutorials and begin learning important aspects about
vehicles (Borg, 2017). Such knowledge enables people to see
the lack of necessary car mechanics, but they are capable of
dealing with the problem themselves. The ability of people to
cope with such issues without any form of complications highly
contributes to the scenario. Therefore, the ability to equally
perform lead to the undervaluing of the companies.
Car mechanics often have basic training that enable them to
deal with car problems. Most people consider this to be a form
of unskilled labor, but it requires a professional aspect that
promotes practice to be efficient. It is the responsibility of the
society to develop a positive view of the profession. This is
based on the fact that it makes important contributions that
relates to the general management of vehicles (Bozkurt & Lara
Cohen, 2019). Although, any individual can be a mechanic, it
demands special skills to be a good one. The service that the
mechanics provide to use enables the running of day-to-day
errand quite effective. It is important to have the view that they
have special skills that aids them to deal with car problems on a
temporary basis compared to our personal skills in mechanics.
Social Class
The class that the society has created in terms of the form of
profession is a key issue of concern that needs to be considered
in this respective. It is evident that most people view mechanics
as a basic skill that does not have a definitive role. The practice
is widely associated with the mechanical skills that can be
easily gained through practice. Limited knowledge is required
for the people to go to class. Ideally, some may define it as
8. unskilled labor that requires a highly level of intelligence
(Borg, 2017). The aspect leads to the devaluing of the society,
which is a key aspect of concern that needs to be positively
understood, based on the overall importance that the practice
has in the society. Therefore, it is important to develop
appropriate notions that focus on the interest of the mechanics
and their class.
The fact that most of the mechanics get dirty in their process of
duty makes the society to undervalue them. This is respect to
the type of work that the mechanics do. Other professional
works demands neatness yet in mechanics maintaining the
aspect can prove to be a difficult task to achieve based on the
complications involved in the entire process. The fact that the
mechanics handle oil and other objects that might be dirty is a
key factor that cannot be ignored. They make important
contributions in ensuring that the vehicles are in good shapes
(Bozkurt & Lara Cohen, 2019). The class of the mechanics I
also affected based on the fact that they work on garages which
is a place that most people view them to be dirty an
inappropriate. However, their work demands that they work in
such places and they make important contributions.
Lack of Functioning Equipment
The store’s owners are only willing to put in the very bare
minimum that it takes to keep the store running but expect their
employees to move the line as if we had brand new, fully
functioning equipment. Whenever the store does get new
equipment it’s always something that either doesn’t work the
way it’s supposed to, is completely unnecessary, or both. The
three most recent upgrades we’ve gotten in my store have been:
a new machine for coffee creamer, the old one didn’t have any
problems; a new drainage system for the fryer which doesn’t
work and has since been disconnected; and a dishwasher that
worked for about three weeks before breaking and has had a
“DO NOT USE!” sign on it for months now. Even though other
9. managers will inform the store manager of the equipment that is
in need of repair, it takes an eternity for those things to be
fixed. Our soft drink machine for drive-thru has been broken for
a couple weeks now even though the store manager and the
owners have been aware of the problem since day one. Even
little repairs go undone. The dispenser for the hot fudge has
been broken for about a month now and all that they need to do
to fix it is order another O-ring, but they haven’t bothered to do
it yet. Despite the fact that the store would run much more
efficiently, the owners are unwilling to spend money on the
upgrades we actually need as well as the maintenance necessary
to keep our current equipment functioning. The Sanchez family
is only interested in the bottom line.
Wages and Salaries
The work is highly undervalued based on the salaries and wages
that the mechanics often receive. It is evident that most of the
mechanics do not depend on salaries. This is based in the
complexities of their work. It is a basic factor that demands
appropriate action to ensure that key practices are embraced to
the interest of the companies (Bederson, Clamage & Plaisant,
2018). They depend on the wages that they are given for the
task that they have performed in the cars. The higher the
problems and time wasted repairing the car the more amounts
one has to pay them. This is a key factor that makes people to
undervalue the profession with the view that it does not make
important contributions to the society that is important to view
and understand appropriately. Therefore, the wage is a
contributing factor.
Other professions have a strict form of payment that demands
the creation of a reliable payment system. This is a key factor
that is based on the bureaucracy that is involved in the entire
process. The practice cannot be applied on garage. This is based
on the fact that cars often have different problems, leaving
mechanics busy dealing with the complex problems that cars
can have. Compared to other professions, management is a key
10. issue that cannot be ignored (Bederson, Clamage & Plaisant,
2018). However, car mechanic requires little governance and
their ability to earn depend on the personal skill that the
individual has in handing things that involves the interest of the
company in a positive way. Today, it is a contributing factor
that leads to the creation of a better society.
Time Off
Mechanics operate under guidelines that may prove to be not
strict. According to experts, they do not have strict guidelines.
Ideally, they often have different guidelines that create the
necessity of developing certain practices that function for the
interest of the community alone. They often do not have a
defined time off. The demand of their services normally varies
making the profession to be highly volatile. It is the
contributing factor 6hat make the society to undervalue the
course (Borg, 2017). They seem to forget the importance of the
entire process. The positive contribution of the initiative leads
to the positive creation of notions that focuses on the interest of
the people in a positive way. it is important to consider that it
does not have a specified time off compared to other
professional courses.
Understanding the contribution that the mechanics have plays an
important role in making them not to have a fixed time off. It is
evident that their profession has a timeline that I highly
unpredictable. This is contributed by the changing demands
within the market that affects the ability of the mechanics to
operate under a fixed timeline. Their profession may need some
moving around which is a factor that needs to be positively
approached based on the positive implications that the practice
is likely to have for the interest of the market (Bozkurt & Lara
Cohen, 2019). Various factors need to be considered in terms of
approach and other basic issues that involve the interest of the
individuals. The need of people understanding the volatile time
schedule of the mechanics I an important aspect that cannot be
11. ignored based on the important contributions that they have in
the society.
The lack of a fixed time schedule may mean that the people may
view it as a course that is not corporate. The factor makes most
individuals working on different fields such as finance,
engineering and law to diminish the practice. Mechanics ensure
that they provide their professional services in an appropriate
way by ensuring that they remain vigilant on the approaches
that they use. Ignoring the timeline that they normally work on
would give the real value of the course. It is the duty of the
stakeholders involved to come up with appropriate measures
that focuses on the interest of the mechanics as a profession.
Ideally, the lack of a fixed time schedule may make people to
undermine the course, but it has an important set of contribution
within the society that needs to be clearly practiced.
Gender Equality
Gender is a key issue involved in the profession that cannot be
ignored. It is evident that mechanics is a profession that any
person from any gender can perform. There is no gender
restriction for the course. This makes it an important profession
in the society that people need to ensure that they develop
positive notions towards it based on the key interest that it
represents in the society. The need to come up with an
appropriate framework that represents the interests of the
people is a key factor that cannot be ignored (Duffield, 2019).
Ideally, any woman can perform as a mechanic as long as the
woman has the skill that is required. The lack of women in the
course is a key factor of concern despite of the limited barriers
that is in the field.
Understanding the common stereotypes that exist in the society
about mechanics is a key factor that make gender to be a key
issue despite of the limited barriers. It is evident that the people
view the field to be a men’s profession. This is based on the
complications involved in performing the tasks. It entails a lot
12. of physical action and getting dirty. This is a key aspect that
may limit certain practices of people in society and needs to be
properly addressed in this area. It is important to consider
complex practices involving the interests of the people
(Bederson, Clamage & Plaisant, 2018). Ideally, it is the basic
duty of the society to ensure that appropriate notions are put in
place to encourage women to be more involved in the [practice.
The gender disparity that exists in the profession based on the
societal stereotypes is a key aspect of concern that needs to be
positively addressed based on the field. Ideally, it is a key
factor that makes people to undermine them and forget the
important contributions that the field plays in the well-being of
the society. it is important to understand that necessary aspects
are involved in the practice. The development of key notions
that involves the interest of the people is a key practice that
cannot be ignored in the society (Borg, 2017). Therefore,
gender equality is a key factor that makes the course to be
ignored. The course has important contribution in the society
based on the complications involved in the creation of an
appropriate operational framework that involves the general
interest of the society. It is the duty of the society to appreciate
the role that it plays.
Ignoring the fact that the women avoid the field is a key matter
of concern. based on research, it is evident that most women
dislike the practice. This is a factor that is contributed by the
nature of the work. The high rate of accidents and physical
activity that is involved in the practice is a key factor that
cannot be ignored in this respective case (Lloyd & Olsson,
2019). The need to develop a framework within which necessary
practices can be embraced for the interest of the mechanics is a
key factor of concern. The course requires the attention of the
society. The gender inequality is an aspect that the society
creates yet the profession has limited barriers of entry and all
that is needed in this case is skill that most people might have.
13. Corporate Structure
Garages lack a defined corporate structure that most
professional fields might have. Ideally, professions such as law,
accounting, engineering and IT have corporate structure. This is
based on the fact that they normally work on companies.
Corporate structures within companies are a common activity
that defines the entire purpose of the company (Bozkurt & Lara
Cohen, 2019). It is a key factor that is contributed with the
ability of the company to perform better governance that is
associated with the creation of order and understanding. Ideally,
the factor commands the respect on the course based on the fact
that they address the important aspect that involves the
allocation of duty and other essential factors. The duty of the
company to develop appropriate notions functions for the
interest of the different professionals.
The lack of corporate structures makes the society to undermine
car mechanics. Based on their field, it is difficult to create a
corporate structure. This is based on the fact that a range of
specialty is needed in the practice. This is a factor that
functions at creating a reliable operational structure that only
focuses on the interest of the people in a positive way. it is the
duty of mechanics to perform their tasks based on the
complications involved in the type of repair that they perform
(Duffield, 2019). Corporate structure will it influence the
process of repair which is an essential aspect that needs to be
appropriately addressed when approaching the field. It is
important to consider that various notions are required to ensure
that a better framework is created to ensure that corporate
structure can be applied. However, the application of the
practice in the company is quite difficult.
The field lacks a corporate structure based on the mode of
registration. In most cases, garages are registered as a sole
proprietorship or a partnership. This is based on the size of the
garage and the range of services that they provide to their
customers. Ideally, the practice cannot be ignored based on the
relevant contributions that they make to the society. It is quite
14. inappropriate to ignore the fact that various aspects are
normally embraced in the actual process. Coming up with
positive ideal that involves the interest of the company is a key
factor that cannot be ignored (Lloyd & Olsson, 2019). Other
professions work in different organizations that are often
registered as a public limited company. Ideally, the notion
affects the ability of the society to fully respect the mechanic
profession and understand the important contribution that it
makes to the society.
Recommendations
· In my opinion, car mechanics is an important profession
within the current social structure. Our society is highly
developing in terms of technology and ideals. Cars are
important part of our daily lives based on the daily movements
that we often have in our duties. The contributions that cars
play is fundamental. This makes the mechanics an important
part of our daily lives, without the important services that they
give to our cars, the maintenance of the vehicles maybe quite
difficult (Duffield, 2019). In a professional view, car mechanics
are a core part of the society and the contribution that they
make towards development is a key issue that cannot be
ignored. They have a vital part to play in ensuring that the
transport mechanics of most people in the society is a success.
Ideally, we need to appreciate the contributions that they make
in the society.
· The profession demands a lot of skill and experience for one
to be a good mechanic. A small course might be required but the
full capability comes with a lot of practice. Most people might
have mechanical skills however, it is important to understand
that they make individual contributions that are associated with
their ability to deal with a wide range of vehicles. Dominating
their contribution to society is a poor practice and may not yield
positive results in the complexity of providing specialized
services (Borg, 2017). Ideally, it is important to understand that
15. mechanics play an important part in the economy of the country.
This is based on the transport sector that needs the appropriate
attention to ensure that it is fully effectual in terms of
application and other basic measures of concern.
In summary, the paper discusses why car mechanics are
undervalued in the society. The fact that anybody can be a car
mechanic is a key contributing factor that contributes to people
undervaluing the profession. It is evident that one can teach him
or herself to become a car mechanics. Gender is a key issue
involved in the profession that cannot be ignored. It is evident
that mechanics is a profession that any person from any gender
can perform. There is no gender restriction for the course. The
field lacks a corporate structure based on the mode of
registration. In most cases, garages are registered as a sole
proprietorship or a partnership. This is based on the size of the
garage and the range of services that they provide to their
customers. In my opinion, car mechanics is an important
profession within the current social structure. Our society is
highly developing in terms of technology and ideals. Cars are
important part of our daily lives based on the daily movements
that we often have in our duties
