The Bhopal disaster occurred on December 3, 1984 at a Union Carbid.docx
The Bhopal disaster occurred on December 3, 1984 at a Union Carbide pesticide plant in Bhophal, Madhya Pradesh India. The pesticide plant leaked 40 tons of methyl isocyanine (MIC) into the air, exposing more than 500,000 people to the gas. There was a confirmed total of 3,787 deaths related to the gas release within the first 24 hours of exposure and another 15,000 related deaths to this day. It left an estimated 100,000 individuals permanently disabled and suffering from various serious illnesses. This leak is the worst industrial accident in modern day history.
I will attempt to answer the following questions within my final paper:
1. What impact did the Bhopal disaster have on safety regulations for an industrial setting?
2. What moral impact did the disaster have on the employees and stockholders of Union Carbide and the decisions they chose to handle the disaster?
3. What long-term impact did this disaster have in this region of India?
4. Internally, what could the management of the chemical plant and Union Carbide done differently?
This topic is critical to me because I work within a manufacturing setting. The rules and regulations that we abide to have had a major influence because of this disaster. This was BP Decades before the BP oil spill. They both share the same socially moral and ethical responsibility to their community and both have suffered sanctions for their handling of the disaster. As the result of this disaster, I hope to see how corporate responsibility to the community and employees evolve. How management styles have changed when listening to employees regarding the potential of faulty equipment. The responsibility the individual employee can have if there is any kind of wrongdoing.

System Development Life Cycle ( Sdlc )
The System Development Life Cycle (SDLC) is a conceptual model used in project management that describes stages in developing an information system project. It includes planning, analysis, design, implementation, and maintenance phases. During planning and analysis, requirements are defined and the system is evaluated. In design, options are considered and blueprints are developed. Implementation involves completing tasks such as testing. Maintenance provides ongoing support and improvements. The SDLC provides an organized process to develop systems efficiently and meet user needs.
System Development Life Cycle
The document discusses the system development life cycle (SDLC), which includes 5 stages: system planning, system analysis, system design, system implementation, and system operation. The accountant plays an important role in several of these stages. In system planning, accountants provide expertise in evaluating feasibility and ensuring careful planning. In system analysis, accountants are important players in designing controls. In system design, accountants ensure accounting considerations are included. In implementation, accountants help with training and follow-up studies. In operation, accountants participate in post-implementation reviews and periodic system reviews.

In design, options are considered and blueprints are developed. Implementation involves completing tasks such as testing. Maintenance provides ongoing support and improvements. The SDLC provides an organized process to develop systems efficiently and meet user needs.
System Development Life Cycle
The document discusses the system development life cycle (SDLC), which includes 5 stages: system planning, system analysis, system design, system implementation, and system operation. The accountant plays an important role in several of these stages. In system planning, accountants provide expertise in evaluating feasibility and ensuring careful planning. In system analysis, accountants are important players in designing controls. In system design, accountants ensure accounting considerations are included. In implementation, accountants help with training and follow-up studies. In operation, accountants participate in post-implementation reviews and periodic system reviews.

IT 600 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
IT professionals are often called upon to make decisions, provide recommendations, and perform analyses that require an in-depth understanding
of the inner workings of an operating system. This summative assessment will provide students with the knowledge and skills required to achieve
and maintain this level of understanding throughout their careers. For the summative assessment, students will perform a technical evaluation of
an operating system. Students will be offered a choice of operating systems to analyze. Students will use real-time and log-based tools, empirical
observation, and scholarly research to analyze the core subsystems of the operating system. For each subsystem, students will research and
describe the technology used in that subsystem and compare it to other available technologies. For the final report, students will assess the results
of their analyses and perform an overall evaluation of the operating system, with recommendations for how it might be improved.
For the summative assessment you will perform an in-depth technical evaluation of an operating system. The evaluation will be made in terms of
the ability of the system and its supporting hardware to meet a set of organizational needs and technical requirements. The organization is a global
enterprise that provides premium technical support to other enterprise businesses.
Management will use your evaluation as one element among several in their assessment of options for future technology adoption. You will define
the technical requirements, based on tasks performed by the organization, the applications used, system loads, security, system management,
maintenance, and performance. The scope of the evaluation will include analyses and assessments of the hardware-software interface, the
techniques used to implement processes and threads, the file systems supported by ...

Organization and Project Selection
The first step will be to select an organization (choose an organization or make one up.) as the target for your Enterprise Content Management and Data Governance Policies and Procedures Manual. This organization will be used as the basis for each of the assignments throughout the course and should conform to the following guidelines:
· Nontrivial: The organization should be large enough and should deal with sufficient amounts of data to allow reasonable exercise of the enterprise content management and data governance policies and procedures that you develop in your manual. Note that the organization should be similar to the organization presented in the Problem Based Learning Scenario, but the company does not have to be a consulting company. The company should, however, deal with clients and some of their sensitive data. The organization can be fictional if necessary, and appropriate assumptions may be made.
· Domain knowledge: You should be familiar enough with the organization to allow focus on the project tasks without significant time required for domain education.
· Accessibility: You should have good access to the people and other information related to the project because this will be an important part of the process.
· Note: The selected organization may already have an enterprise content management system in place and can still be used as the basis for the projects in this course.
Select an organization that meets these requirements, and submit your proposal to your instructor before proceeding further with the assignments in the course. Approval should be sought within the first several days of the course. Your instructor will tell you how to submit this proposal and what notification will be given for project approval.

Town Guide Android Application
Problem Definition
People visiting new places often have trouble adopting to the new place. Whether on a business trip or holiday vocational trip, a new place is usually hard to adopt in terms of finding locations, restaurants, guest rooms, movie theatres and shopping centers. To find the required destination or services, one has to spend long time and resources asking people or walking from one corner of the town or city to another (Koutroumanis, 2011). The Town-Guide Android application is to help people who are new to a city or town find their way around the town. The application will provide features like navigation, geolocation and reviews for services and other requirements that will help the visitor. The application will also reduce the time of finding services like restaurants, shopping centers and movie theaters among other service centers. Additionally, the app will help select the best services through the reviews of people who has used the restaurant, hotel or tourism center before.
Issues
In modern days, towns and cities have been crowded and security is usually compromised. Moving from one place to another in search of a particular destination can be risky and wasteful of time and other resources. However, applications like Google Maps exist to help find directions; Town-Guide Application will integrate the geolocation feature with features of locating services in town and reviews from the customers and local residents. This will help visitors and tourists find the best services in terms of quality of the places, price range, distance from main centers and security of places. The application aims to have a comprehensive feature for the visitors to help them adopt quickly to the new city or town.
Objectives
Introduce a new android application for visitors at the end of next month to help lower their travelling costs by 50% and reduce the time for finding places and services to one minute. The project also aims to help visitors find category of services in a region by one click with details such as directions, ratings, costs and security.
Requirements
· System Requirements: System availability is 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year (99.9% uptime).
· Reporting Requirements: Weekly traffic report should be auto-generated and sent to the business owner of the application.
· Data requirements: interfacing the system with geolocation data, and other regional databases in terms infrastructure, security and services.
· Business requirements: after approval of the system’s database requirements, there should be five weeks of implementation of the project.
· Security requirements: need to secure the system through two level user authentication.Personnel Requirements: ...

Project Proposal
This project is being undertaken in order to simplify the personnel and deployment management system within an agency. This application will house all agency employees as well as their training data and work title information. The unique part of this application is the Voluntary Responder Component. This component will be comprised of employees that apply for specific positions, complete required position specific training and possess the clearances to immediately respond to an incident. The application process for volunteers occurs before an incident to ensure that the agency has response capability before an unforeseen emergency takes place. The application also ensures that all employees get an opportunity to serve on an emergency response incident. By having all of this information in the same database makes it easier for dispatch employees to put together the appropriate teams to respond to emergency situations. At the current time dispatch employees does not have a database that gives them access to all of the needed information to successfully deploy responders in support of emerge ...

IT 600 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
IT professionals are often called upon to make decisions, provide recommendations, and perform analyses that require an in-depth understanding
of the inner workings of an operating system. This summative assessment will provide students with the knowledge and skills required to achieve
and maintain this level of understanding throughout their careers. For the summative assessment, students will perform a technical evaluation of
an operating system. Students will be offered a choice of operating systems to analyze. Students will use real-time and log-based tools, empirical
observation, and scholarly research to analyze the core subsystems of the operating system. For each subsystem, students will research and
describe the technology used in that subsystem and compare it to other available technologies. For the final report, students will assess the results
of their analyses and perform an overall evaluation of the operating system, with recommendations for how it might be improved.
For the summative assessment you will perform an in-depth technical evaluation of an operating system. The evaluation will be made in terms of
the ability of the system and its supporting hardware to meet a set of organizational needs and technical requirements. The organization is a global
enterprise that provides premium technical support to other enterprise businesses.
Management will use your evaluation as one element among several in their assessment of options for future technology adoption. You will define
the technical requirements, based on tasks performed by the organization, the applications used, system loads, security, system management,
maintenance, and performance. The scope of the evaluation will include analyses and assessments of the hardware-software interface, the
techniques used to implement processes and threads, the file systems supported by ...

Organization and Project Selection
The first step will be to select an organization (choose an organization or make one up.) as the target for your Enterprise Content Management and Data Governance Policies and Procedures Manual. This organization will be used as the basis for each of the assignments throughout the course and should conform to the following guidelines:
· Nontrivial: The organization should be large enough and should deal with sufficient amounts of data to allow reasonable exercise of the enterprise content management and data governance policies and procedures that you develop in your manual. Note that the organization should be similar to the organization presented in the Problem Based Learning Scenario, but the company does not have to be a consulting company. The company should, however, deal with clients and some of their sensitive data. The organization can be fictional if necessary, and appropriate assumptions may be made.
· Domain knowledge: You should be familiar enough with the organization to allow focus on the project tasks without significant time required for domain education.
· Accessibility: You should have good access to the people and other information related to the project because this will be an important part of the process.
· Note: The selected organization may already have an enterprise content management system in place and can still be used as the basis for the projects in this course.
Select an organization that meets these requirements, and submit your proposal to your instructor before proceeding further with the assignments in the course. Approval should be sought within the first several days of the course. Your instructor will tell you how to submit this proposal and what notification will be given for project approval.

Town Guide Android Application
Problem Definition
People visiting new places often have trouble adopting to the new place. Whether on a business trip or holiday vocational trip, a new place is usually hard to adopt in terms of finding locations, restaurants, guest rooms, movie theatres and shopping centers. To find the required destination or services, one has to spend long time and resources asking people or walking from one corner of the town or city to another (Koutroumanis, 2011). The Town-Guide Android application is to help people who are new to a city or town find their way around the town. The application will provide features like navigation, geolocation and reviews for services and other requirements that will help the visitor. The application will also reduce the time of finding services like restaurants, shopping centers and movie theaters among other service centers. Additionally, the app will help select the best services through the reviews of people who has used the restaurant, hotel or tourism center before.
Issues
In modern days, towns and cities have been crowded and security is usually compromised. Moving from one place to another in search of a particular destination can be risky and wasteful of time and other resources. However, applications like Google Maps exist to help find directions; Town-Guide Application will integrate the geolocation feature with features of locating services in town and reviews from the customers and local residents. This will help visitors and tourists find the best services in terms of quality of the places, price range, distance from main centers and security of places. The application aims to have a comprehensive feature for the visitors to help them adopt quickly to the new city or town.
Objectives
Introduce a new android application for visitors at the end of next month to help lower their travelling costs by 50% and reduce the time for finding places and services to one minute. The project also aims to help visitors find category of services in a region by one click with details such as directions, ratings, costs and security.
Requirements
· System Requirements: System availability is 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and 365 days a year (99.9% uptime).
· Reporting Requirements: Weekly traffic report should be auto-generated and sent to the business owner of the application.
· Data requirements: interfacing the system with geolocation data, and other regional databases in terms infrastructure, security and services.
· Business requirements: after approval of the system’s database requirements, there should be five weeks of implementation of the project.
· Security requirements: need to secure the system through two level user authentication.Personnel Requirements: ...

I. INTRODUCTION
There are many ways for the company to improve its
performance, one of them is optimizing the internal control
of the company's activities and also implementation of the
new system to increase efficiency and effectiveness in all
business process activities [4]. Internal control is a process
undertaken by company management to assist the
achievement of operations, reporting and in accordance with
the compliance [9]. The internal optimization is needed
because it describes the overall rules and procedures used by
management to improve management effectiveness in the
business and identify lack of internal control in the business
processes that it can make the organization vulnerable and
possible risks occurs, eventually all these risks can have an
impact on a company's financial performance [2].
In warehouse management, internal controls devoted to
optimizing the functions, including the process of finished
goods inventory, and it useful to organize the distribution
process to the market. According to Rita Makumbi (2013)
[6] the function of the warehouse management is one of a
service that can help the company's operational functions
run smoothly as a store of raw material, unfinished goods,
until stock the finished goods.

A ) Society perspective90 year old female, Mrs. Ruth, from h.docx
A ) Society perspective
90 year old female, Mrs. Ruth, from home with her daughter, is admitted to hospital after sustaining a hip fracture. She has a history of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease on home oxygen and moderate to severe aortic stenosis. (Obstruction of blood flow through part of the heart) She undergoes urgent hemiarthroplasty (hip surgery) with an uneventful operative course.
The patient and her family are of Jewish background. The patient’s daughter is her primary caregiver and has financial power-of-attorney, but it is not known whether she has formal power of attorney for personal care. Concerns have been raised to the ICU team about the possibility of elder abuse in the home by the patient’s daughter.
Unfortunately, on postoperative day 4, the patient develops delirium with respiratory failure secondary to hospital acquired pneumonia and pulmonary edema. (Fluid in the lungs) Her goals of care were not assessed pre-operatively. She is admitted to the ICU for non-invasive positive pressure ventilation for 48 hours, and then deteriorates and is intubated. After 48 hours of ventilation, it was determined that due to the severity of her underlying cardio-pulmonary status (COPD and aortic stenosis), ventilator weaning would be difficult and further ventilation would be futile.
The patient’s daughter is insistent on continuing all forms of life support, including mechanical ventilation and even extracorporeal membranous oxygenation (does the work of the lungs) if indicated. However, the Mrs Ruth’s delirium clears within the next 24 hours of intubation, and she is now competent, although still mechanically ventilated. She communicated to the ICU team that she preferred 1-way extubation (removal of the ventilator) and comfort care. This was communicated in writing to the ICU team, and was consistent over time with other care providers. The patient went as far to demand the extubation over the next hour, which was felt to be reasonable by the ICU team.
The patient’s daughter was informed of this decision, and stated that she could not come to the hospital for 2 hours, and in the meantime, that the patient must remain intubated.
At this point, the ICU team concurred with the patient’s wishes, and extubated her before her daughter was able to come to the hospital.
The daughter was angry at the team’s decision, and requested that the patient be re-intubated if she deteriorated. When the daughter arrived at the hospital, the patient and daughter were able to converse, and the patient then agreed to re-intubation if she deteriorated.
(1) What are the ethical issues emerging in this case? State why? (
KRISTINA)
(2) What decision model(s) would be ideal for application in this case? State your justification.
(Lacey Powell
)
(3) Who should make decisions in this situation? Should the ICU team have extubated the patient?
State if additional information was necessary for you to arrive at a better decision(s) in your case.

9 AssignmentAssignment Typologies of Sexual AssaultsT.docx
9 Assignment
Assignment: Typologies of Sexual Assaults
There are many different types of sexual assaults and many different types of offenders. Although they are different, they can be classified in order to create a common language between the criminal justice field and the mental health field. This in turn will enable more accurate research, predict future offenses, and assist in the prosecution and rehabilitation of the offenders.
In this Assignment, you compare different typologies of sexual offenders to determine the differences in motivation, expression of aggression, and underlining personality structure. You also determine the best way to interview each typology of sexual offenders.
To prepare for this Assignment:
Review the Learning Resources.
Select two typologies of sexual offenders listed in the resources.
By Day 7
In a 3- to 5- page paper:
Compare the two typologies of sexual offenders you selected by explaining the following:
The motivational differences between the two typologies
The expression of aggression in the two typologies
The differences in the underlining personality structure of the two typologies

9 Augustine
Confessions
(selections)
Augustine of Hippo wrote his Confessions between 397 -400 CE. In it he gives an
autobiographical account of his whole life up through his conversion to Christianity.
In Book 2, excerpted here, he thinks over the passions and temptations of his youth,
especially during a period where he had to come home from where he was studying
and return to living with his parents. His mother Monica was already Christian and
his father was considering it. They want him to be academically successful and
become a great orator.

the corrupting effect of sensual experience on my soul, not because I love
them, but so that I may love you, my God. I do this because of my love for
your love, to the end that—as I recall my wicked, wicked ways in the
bitterness of recollection—you may grow even sweeter to me. For you are
a sweetness which does not deceive, a sweetness which brings happiness
and peace, pulling me back together from the disintegration in which I was
being shattered and torn apart, when I turned away from you who are unity

and dispersed into the multiplicity that is oblivion. For there was a time
during my adolescence when I burned to have my fill of hell. I ran wild and
reckless in all manner of shady liaisons, and my outward appearance
deteriorated, and I degenerated before your eyes as I went on pleasing
myself and desiring to appear pleasing in human sight.
2. (2) What was it that used to delight me, if not loving and being loved? But
there was no boundary maintained between one mind and another, and
reaching only as far as the clear confines of friendship. Instead the slime
of fleshly desire and the spurts of adolescence belched out their fumes,
and these clouded and obscured my heart, so that it was impossible to
distinguish the purity of love from the darkness of lust. Both of them
together seethed in me, dragging my immaturity over the heights of bodily
desire, and plunging me down into a whirlpool of sin. Your anger grew
strong against me, but I was unaware of it. I had been deafened by the
loud grinding of the chain of my mortality, the punishment for the pride of
my soul, and I went even further away from yo.
8.3 Intercultural CommunicationLearning Objectives1. Define in.docx
8.3 Intercultural Communication
Learning Objectives
1. Define intercultural communication.
2. List and summarize the six dialectics of intercultural communication.
3. Discuss how intercultural communication affects interpersonal relationships.
It is through intercultural communication that we come to create, understand, and transform culture and identity. Intercultural communication is communication between people with differing cultural identities. One reason we should study intercultural communication is to foster greater self-awareness (Martin & Nakayama, 2010). Our thought process regarding culture is often “other focused,” meaning that the culture of the other person or group is what stands out in our perception. However, the old adage “know thyself” is appropriate, as we become more aware of our own culture by better understanding other cultures and perspectives. Intercultural communication can allow us to step outside of our comfortable, usual frame of reference and see our culture through a different lens. Additionally, as we become more self-aware, we may also become more ethical communicators as we challenge our ethnocentrism, or our tendency to view our own culture as superior to other cultures.
As was noted earlier, difference matters, and studying intercultural communication can help us better negotiate our changing world. Changing economies and technologies intersect with culture in meaningful ways (Martin & Nakayama). As was noted earlier, technology has created for some a global village where vast distances are now much shorter due to new technology that make travel and communication more accessible and convenient (McLuhan, 1967). However, as the following “Getting Plugged In” box indicates, there is also a digital divide, which refers to the unequal access to technology and related skills that exists in much of the world. People in most fields will be more successful if they are prepared to work in a globalized world. Obviously, the global market sets up the need to have intercultural competence for employees who travel between locations of a multinational corporation. Perhaps less obvious may be the need for teachers to work with students who do not speak English as their first language and for police officers, lawyers, managers, and medical personnel to be able to work with people who have various cultural identities.
“Getting Plugged In”
The Digital Divide
Many people who are now college age struggle to imagine a time without cell phones and the Internet. As “digital natives” it is probably also surprising to realize the number of people who do not have access to certain technologies. The digital divide was a term that initially referred to gaps in access to computers. The term expanded to include access to the Internet since it exploded onto the technology scene and is now connected to virtually all computing (van Deursen & van Dijk, 2010). Approximately two billion people around the world now access the Internet regularl.

Life in a Toxic Country
By EDWARD WONG
BEIJING — I RECENTLY found myself hauling a bag filled with 12 boxes of milk powder and a
cardboard container with two sets of air filters through San Francisco International Airport. I was
heading to my home in Beijing at the end of a work trip, bringing back what have become two of
the most sought-after items among parents here, and which were desperately needed in my own
household.
China is the world’s second largest economy, but the enormous costs of its growth are becoming
apparent. Residents of its boom cities and a growing number of rural regions question the safety of
the air they breathe, the water they drink and the food they eat. It is as if they were living in the
Chinese equivalent of the Chernobyl or Fukushima nuclear disaster areas.
Before this assignment, I spent three and a half years reporting in Iraq, where foreign
correspondents talked endlessly of the variety of ways in which one could die — car bombs,
firefights, being abducted and then beheaded. I survived those threats, only now to find myself
wondering: Is China doing irreparable harm to me and my family?
The environmental hazards here are legion, and the consequences might not manifest themselves
for years or even decades. The risks are magnified for young children. Expatriate workers
confronted with the decision of whether to live in Beijing weigh these factors, perhaps more than at
any time in recent decades. But for now, a correspondent’s job in China is still rewarding, and so I
am toughing it out a while longer. So is my wife, Tini, who has worked for more than a dozen years
as a journalist in Asia and has studied Chinese. That means we are subjecting our 9-month-old
daughter to the same risks that are striking fear into residents of cities across northern China, and
grappling with the guilt of doing so.
Like them, we take precautions. Here in Beijing, high-tech air purifiers are as coveted as luxury
sedans. Soon after I was posted to Beijing, in 2008, I set up a couple of European-made air
purifiers used by previous correspondents. In early April, I took out one of the filters for the first
time to check it: the layer of dust was as thick as moss on a forest floor. It nauseated me. I ordered
two new sets of filters to be picked up in San Francisco; those products are much cheaper in the
United States. My colleague Amy told me that during the Lunar New Year in February, a family

Make changes on the names, labels, and measure on the variable view.
Check the measure.
Have the same keys between “Name” and “Label.”
Run factor analysis for ys (dependent variables).
Select “Principal axis factoring” from “Extraction.”
The two-factor solution seems the best as (1) they are over one eigenvalue each and (2) the variance explained for is over 60%.
The new eigenvalues after the rotation.
The rotated factor matrix is clear.
But note that y3 and y1 are collapsed into one factor.
If not you should rerun factor analysis after removing the most problematic item one at a time.
Repeat this procedure until the rotated factor pattern has
(1) no cross-loading,
(2) no weak factor loading (< 0.5), and
(3) an adequate number of items (not more than 5 items per factor).
If a clear factor pattern is obtained, name the factors.
Attitude and purchase intention (y3 and y1)
Boycotting intention (y2)
Compute the reliability of the items of each factor
Make sure all responses were used.
Cronbach’s a (= Reliability a) must be greater than 0.70. Then, you can create the composite variable out of the member items.
Means and STDs must be similar among the items.
No a here should be greater than Cronbach’s a. If not, you should delete such item(s) to increase a.
Create the composite variable for each factor.
BI = mean (y2_1,y2_2,y2_3)
“PI” will be added to the data.
Go to the Variable View and change its “Name” and “Label.”

8.1 What Is Corporate StrategyLO 8-1Define corporate strategy.docx
8.1 What Is Corporate Strategy?
LO 8-1
Define corporate strategy and describe the three dimensions along which it is assessed.
Strategy formulation centers around the key questions of where and how to compete. Business strategy concerns the question of how to compete in a single product market. As discussed in Chapter 6, the two generic business strategies that firms can follow to pursue their quest for competitive advantage are to increase differentiation (while containing cost) or lower costs (while maintaining differentiation). If trade-offs can be reconciled, some firms might be able to pursue a blue ocean strategy by increasing differentiation and lowering costs. As firms grow, they are frequently expanding their business activities through seeking new markets both by offering new products and services and by competing in different geographies. Strategic leaders must formulate a corporate strategy to guide continued growth. To gain and sustain competitive advantage, therefore, any corporate strategy must align with and strengthen a firm’s business strategy, whether it is a differentiation, cost-leadership, or blue ocean strategy.
Corporate strategy comprises the decisions that leaders make and the goal-directed actions they take in the quest for competitive advantage in several industries and markets simultaneously.3 It provides answers to the key question of where to compete. Corporate strategy determines the boundaries of the firm along three dimensions: vertical integration along the industry value chain, diversification of products and services, and geographic scope (regional, national, or global markets). Strategic leaders must determine corporate strategy along the three dimensions:
1. Vertical integration: In what stages of the industry value chain should the company participate? The industry value chain describes the transformation of raw materials into finished goods and services along distinct vertical stages.
2. Diversification: What range of products and services should the company offer?
3. Geographic scope: Where should the company compete geographically in terms of regional, national, or international markets?
In most cases, underlying these three questions is an implicit desire for growth. The need for growth is sometimes taken so much for granted that not every manager understands all the reasons behind it. A clear understanding will help strategic leaders to pursue growth for the right reasons and make better decisions for the firm and its stakeholders.
WHY FIRMS NEED TO GROW
LO 8-2
Explain why firms need to grow, and evaluate different growth motives.
Several reasons explain why firms need to grow. These can be summarized as follows:
1. Increase profits.
2. Lower costs.
3. Increase market power.
4. Reduce risk.
5. Motivate management.
Let’s look at each reason in turn.
INCREASE PROFITS
Profitable growth allows businesses to provide a higher return for their shareholders, or owners, if privately held. For publicly trade.
8.0 RESEARCH METHODS These guidelines address postgr.docx
8.0 RESEARCH METHODS
These guidelines address postgraduate students who have completed course
requirements and assumed to have sufficient background experience of high-level
engagement activities like recognizing, relating, applying, generating, reflecting and
theorizing issues. It is an ultimate period in our academic life when we feel confident
at embarking on independent research.
It cannot be overemphasized that we must enjoy the experience of research process
and not look at it as an academic chore.
To enable such a desired behaviour, these guidelines consider the research process
in terms of the skills and knowledge needed to develop independent and critical
styles of thinking in order to evaluate and use research as well as to conduct fresh
research.
The guidelines should be viewed as briefs which the Research Supervisors are expected
to exemplify based on their own experience as well as expertise.
8.1 Chapter 1 - Introduction
INTRODUCE the subject or problem to be studied. This might require the
identification of key managerial concerns, theories, laws and governmental rulings,
critical incidents or social changes, and current environmental issues, that make the
subject critical, relevant and worthy of managerial or research attention.
• To inform the Reader (stylistically - forthright, direct, and brief / concise),
• The first sentence should begin with `This Study was intended
to’….’ And immediately tell the Reader the nature of the study for the
reader's interest and desire to read on.
8.1.1 The Research Problem
What is the statement of the problem? The statement of the problem or problem
statement should follow logically from what has been set forth in the background of
the problem by defining the specific research need providing impetus for the
study, a need not met through previous research. Present a clear and precise
statement of the central question of research, formulated to address the need.
8.1.2 The Purpose of the Study
What is the purpose of the study? What are the RESEARCH QUESTION (S) of
the study? What are the specific objective (s) of the study? Define the specific
research objective (s) that would answer the research Question (s) of the study.
8.1.3 The Rationale of the Study:
1. Why in a general sense?
2. One or two brief references to previous research or theories critical in structuring
this study to support and understand the rationale.
3. The importance of the study for the reader to know, to fully appreciate the need
for the study - and its significance.
4. Own professional experience that stimulated the study or aroused interest in the
area of research.
5. The Need for the Study - will deal with valid questions or professional concerns
to provide data leading to an answer - reference to literature helpful and

Overview, Inhabited Localities,
and Topography
OVERVIEW
Appalachia consists of that large geographic expanse in
the eastern United States that is associated with the
Appalachian mountain system, a 200,000-square-mile
region that extends from the northeastern United States
in southern New York to northern Mississippi. It includes
all of West Virginia and parts of Alabama, Georgia,
Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, New York, North
Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee,
and Virginia. This very rural area is characterized by a
rolling topography with very rugged ridges and hilltops,
some extending over 4000 feet high, with remote valleys
between them. The surrounding valleys are often 2000
feet or more in elevation and give one a sense of isolation,
peacefulness, and separateness from the lower and more
heavily traveled urban areas. This isolation and rough
topography have contributed to the development of
secluded communities in the hills and natural hollows or
narrow valleys where people, over time, have developed a
strong sense of independence and family cohesiveness.
These same isolated valleys and rugged mountains pre-
sent many transportation problems for those who do not
have access to cars or trucks. Very limited public trans-
portation is available only in the larger urbanized areas.
Even though the Appalachian region includes several
large cities, many people live in small settlements and in
inaccessible hollows or “hollers” (Huttlinger, Schaller-
Ayers, & Lawson, 2004a). The rugged location of many
communities in Appalachia results in a population that is
often isolated from the mainstream of health-care ser-
vices. In some areas of Appalachia, substandard secondary
and tertiary roads, as well as limited public bus, rail, and
airport facilities, prevent easy access to the area (Fig. 5–1).
Difficulty in accessing the area is partially responsible for
continued geographic and sociocultural isolation. The
rugged terrain can significantly delay ambulance response
time and is a deterrent to people who need health care
when their health condition is severe. This is one area in
which telehealth innovations can and often do provide
needed services.
Many of the approximately 24 million people who live
in Appalachia can trace their family roots back 150 or
more years, and it is common to find whole communities
comprising extended, related families. The cultural her-
itage of the region is rich and reflected in their distinctive
music, art, and literature. Even though family roots are
strong, many of the region’s younger residents have left
the area to pursue job opportunities in the larger urban
cities of the north. The remaining, older population
reflects a group that often has less than a high-school edu-
cation, is frequently unemployed, may be on welfare
and/or disability, and is regularly uninsured (20.4 per-
cent) (Virginia He.

Are your IT staff ready
for the pandemic-driven
insider threat? Phil Chapman
Obviously the threat to human life is
the top concern for everyone at this
moment. But businesses are also starting
to suffer as productivity slips globally
and the workforce itself is squeezed.
The UK Government’s March budget
did announce some measures, especially
for small and medium-size enterprises
(SMEs), that will make this period
slightly less painful for organisations.
However, as is apparent from the tank-
ing stock market (the FTSE 100 has
hit levels not seen since June 2012) the
economy and pretty much all businesses
in the country (unless you produce hand
sanitiser) are going to suffer. There is no
time like now for the UK to embrace
its mantra of ‘keep calm and carry on’
because that is what we must do if we’re
going to keep business flowing.
For the IT department at large there is
lots of urgent work to do to ensure that
the business is prepared to keep running
smoothly even if people are having to
work remotely. The task at hand for cyber
security professionals is arguably even
larger as Covid-19 is seeing cyber criminals
capitalising on the fact that the insider
threat is worse than ever, with more people
working remotely from personal devices
than many IT and cyber security teams
have likely ever prepared for.
This article will argue that the cyber
security workforce, which is already suf-
fering a digital skills crisis, may also be
lacking the adequate soft skills required
to effectively tackle the insider threat
that has been exacerbated by the pan-
demic. It will first examine the insider
threat, and why this has become so
much more insidious because of Covid-
19. It will then look into the essential
soft skills required to tackle this threat,
before examining how organisations can
effectively implement an apprentice-
ship strategy that generates professionals
with both hard and soft skills, includ-
ing advice from the CISO of globally
respected law firm Pinsent Masons, who
will provide insight into how he is mak-
ing his strategy work. It will conclude
that many of these issues could be solved
if the industry didn’t rely so heavily on
recruiting graduates and rather looked
towards hiring apprentices.
The insider threat
In the best of times, every cyber-pro-
fessional knows that the biggest threat
to an organisation’s IT infrastructure
is people, both malicious actors and
– much more often – employees and
partners making mistakes. The problem
is that people lack cyber knowledge and
so commit careless actions – for exam-
ple, forwarding sensitive information to
the wrong recipient over email or plug-
ging rogue USBs into their device (yes,
that still happens). Cyber criminals
capitalise on this ignorance by utilising
social engineering tactics ranging from
the painfully simple, like fake emails
from Amazon, to the very sophisticated,
such as.

IT 500 Final Project Guidelines and Grading GuideOverview and.docx
- 1. IT 500: Final Project Guidelines and Grading Guide Overview and Outcomes The final project for this course is the creation of an IT Systems Development Project. This is a group project. You and your group will work on all the aspects to implementing a new or updated information system into a business from a project management perspective. Your group can choose a real-life implementation of one of your companies or use a scenario provided of a company thinking of implementing a new system. Your group will have to consider all aspects of an IT systems development project for your company, including an overview, an implementation plan for the IT system, a timeline and resources, and a risk management plan for your organization. Your role is to oversee this new system implementation from a management perspective while keeping in mind your learned knowledge of IT in this course. This project is divided into several milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. The final project submission consists of a Group Paper due in Module Ten and a Group Presentation due in Module Eleven. This project will demonstrate your knowledge of the steps needed to implement a new information system into a business. To successfully complete this project, you will be expected to apply what you have learned in this course and should include several of the following course outcomes and learning objectives: · Propose methods for incorporating appropriate information technologies within a contemporary organization based on their potential to create a competitive advantage in the global marketplace · Develop an information systems project that meets the needs

- 13. · You may utilize a product such as Microsoft’s PowerPoint, Adobe Captivate, Prezi or Google Presentation to create your presentations. · There are various template designs that you can find on the web for your presentation. However, first consider your presentation from the perspective of your audience prior to selecting a specific style. Distracting backgrounds, large blocks of text, all uppercase fonts, elaborate font styles, grammatical errors and misspellings are distracting. Be consistent with the style of text, bullets, and sub-points in order to support a powerful presentation that allows your content to be the focus. · Each slide should include your key point(s). Do not place large blocks of text on the visual. Your presentation is not a means of presenting a short paper. In an actual presentation you would not “read” from your slides but rather use them as prompts. · Any notes or narration you would use in delivering this presentation to a group should be listed in the “notes” section of the slide. · References should be listed at the bottom of the slide in slightly smaller text. · Use clip art, AutoShapes, pictures, charts, tables, and diagrams to enhance but not overwhelm your content. · Be mindful of the intended audience and seek to assess the presentation’s effectiveness by gauging audience comprehension (when possible) Below are some links that offer helpful tips and examples for developing your presentations: Making PowerPoint Slides

Specify two (2) critical stages of the criminal proceedings at which defendants may exercise their right to counsel. Provide a rationale for your response. · Suppose someone you know is a suspect in a crime and has been taken into police custody for questioning. Justify the need for an attorney at this point in order to preserve the suspect’s right against self-incrimination, as guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Provide a rationale for your response. · From the e-Activity, examine three (3) standards that you found in the preamble for the ABA Model Code of Professional Responsibility. Assert the primary reasons why you believe that each one is important for effectively regulating the actions of attorneys. Provide specific examples to support your rationale. · Take a position on whether or not a defendant can be convicted solely from ineffectiveness of counsel. Support your position with examples of the role that ineffective counsel has played in the outcome of trials.
