The team set an objective to profit from operating a tuck shop event. They expanded on this objective by setting profit goals of £100, £250, and £500 along with some stretch goals. The team leader was chosen based on their previous experience leading a team. Roles and tasks were assigned by the team leader to spread the workload evenly. The author's workload included planning the layout of the event space and creating posters and a price list. Conflicts were resolved by listening to both sides and finding compromises. Constructive criticism was used to address underperformance in a suggestive rather than negative way to prevent conflicts. Identifying and addressing potential conflicts helped prevent issues between members with different work styles.

Team development
1. Developing as a team, especially for permanent teams, allows members to become better at their jobs and work more effectively together over time. Temporary teams should still develop team skills for future use.
2. Building a team is important for organizational success. The team leader plays a key role in the team's performance. Individual team members should have their own skills to contribute and collaborate effectively.
3. Recruitment should focus on both bringing in new talent and retaining current employees to allow the team to build experience and knowledge together over time through developing skills like leadership.
Safety procedures
The document outlines various safety procedures and rules at The Howard School. It discusses visitor procedures, missing children procedures, student identification, fire drills, security lockdown procedures, building rules, activity rules, and risk assessment procedures. It provides details on how risk assessments are conducted, including the format, content, identified hazards, and best practices. Recommendations are made to improve safety in the hall, sixth form canteen, business room, and ELC based on risk assessments of those locations.
Team effectiveness (further)
This document discusses three different teams: a basketball team, a sales team at Tesco, and a charity management team.
For the basketball team, members had allocated roles and would discuss tactics before and during matches. Communication and teamwork helped encourage improvement. One issue was that tactics could not be discussed during loud games.
The sales team at Tesco would work on big tasks together rather than individually. This allowed them to quickly accomplish required work and show collective skills. However, it may have been faster if people specialized in certain tasks.
The charity management team organized an ongoing online tournament to raise funds. They coached participating teams with guidelines rather than extra knowledge. Members focused on different roles but still collaborated on ideas
Team cohesion
A cohesive team has members that focus on both task functions and process maintenance roles. Task functions include proposing objectives, clarifying goals, seeking information and opinions, keeping the group on track, summarizing ideas, and suggesting ways forward. Process maintenance roles involve supporting other members, ensuring inclusion, reconciling disagreements, making suggestions for compromise, and monitoring the group. Together, a focus on both task functions and process maintenance helps create a cohesive team that works well toward its goals.
Health and safety responsibilities
The principal is responsible for overseeing day-to-day school operations and ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations. This includes keeping risk assessments updated, maintaining asbestos and substance control programs, and ensuring safe vehicle access, security, first aid resources, and off-site visits. The principal also leads by example, staffs the school appropriately, supervises staff, and communicates with parents.
The health and safety officer develops, monitors, and implements the health and safety policy to reduce hazards and accidents in compliance with laws. This involves inspections, drills, investigations, and record keeping.
Department heads such as for art and design are responsible for updating safe work systems, ensuring staff and students follow safety
Three circles approach
The three circles approach has three parts: 1) Achieving the task by listening to instructions, explaining roles clearly, and reporting progress. 2) Team management by forming communication, setting the approach, avoiding conflict, and giving feedback. 3) Management of team members by treating them as individuals, assisting with work, setting goals, giving freedom but not too much, and providing training. The approach is important for effective teamwork and leadership.

Business operations
I have been asked to write a report on my investigation into two contrasting types of business organisation from different sectors. One from the voluntary sector and the other being part of the private sector, the two contrasting businesses I have decided to choose and research on are Tesco PLC and The British Red Cross. In my research I am going to write about, how first of all businesses operate and also which sector they are in. I will then go on to write about the purposes that businesses have and their types of ownership. After that I will write about the two businesses I have chosen and the way they operate, sector, purposes and compare the way the types of ownership are in terms of advantage and disadvantage.
Team leadership
This document outlines the key responsibilities of a team leader, including communicating effectively with both internal and external stakeholders, planning objectives and monitoring progress, building team strengths, leading by example, providing and receiving feedback, motivating team members, solving problems, supporting others, maximizing talents, preventing conflicts, fostering creativity, and adapting leadership style to different situations. The team leader must set clear objectives, listen to team concerns, and make decisions based on received feedback to guide the team in achieving its goals.
Health and safety improvements
The document identifies several areas for improvement at the school. First, building work should be done during breaks instead of school hours to minimize disruption and safety risks. Second, trailing wires and use of extension cords should be reduced, such as installing sockets on the stage instead of cords in the hall. Third, the school needs to improve disabled access by installing lifts and widening doorways to comply with discrimination laws. Fourth, fire extinguishers should be relocated to central areas rather than by doors. Fifth, visitor badges should be more obvious to easily distinguish visitors from students. Sixth, teachers should take the register immediately at the start of lessons to track attendance and identify truancy or missing students. Seventh, more signs with rules should be
Accounting in business
Accounting is used in businesses to keep a financial record of expenditure and income generated from the business. It is used to manage, track and report these incomes as they are a legal requirement for a business to have.
Marketing
In my assignment I am going to give a description of how certain techniques in marketing are used to list products on the market in two organisations. I have chosen to investigate Tesco PLC and Coca Cola Ltd. Such marketing techniques I will be describing are the use of branding; brand awareness, brand influences, brand building and brand extension, and the use of relationship marketing.
Organisational structure
I am going to describe the organisation that businesses have while investigating the organisational structure of Tesco and British Red Cross, and how this structure helps to achieve their aims and objectives.
Political, legal and social factors (further)
Tesco is affected by several political, legal, and social factors. Taxation reduces Tesco's profits, requiring lower employee pay and higher product prices. Competition law prevents Tesco from dominating markets or copying competitors, restricting growth strategies. Demographic changes like a rising population increase demand for Tesco's products and the available workforce.
The British Red Cross relies on government grants and tax relief for funding, without which it could not operate. It is mainly affected by contract law to protect volunteers. A rising and aging population creates both more need for assistance and more potential volunteers, though high needs could outpace capacity without more support.
Stakeholder influence
A list of what stakeholders Tesco and British Red Cross have, what they are trying to achieve and what impact they have.
Political, legal and social factors

SWOT report - Sainsbury (2013)
Sainsbury is a major UK retailer founded in 1869 operating over 1000 stores. A SWOT analysis was conducted using secondary data sources to evaluate Sainsbury's strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Key strengths included a strong brand reputation in the UK and increasing profits and market share in recent years. Weaknesses included a smaller market share than competitor Tesco and lack of international expansion. Opportunities existed in marketing campaigns, selling digital goods, and gaining customers from competitors' issues. Threats included price matching from competitors reducing benefits and diminishing loyalty program value.
The problem of scarcity
Economists study many issues, but all of them stem from the central economic problem of scarcity. This is my report on the problem of scarcity, both physical and artificial and the impact on the economy.
Usability of websites
The document discusses several key factors that affect the usability of websites, including navigation, language, efficiency, speed of response, respect for privacy, design of web pages, accessibility, and visual appeal. It analyzes how these factors are implemented on the websites of Tesco, TheyWorkForYou.com, and The Howard School. Specific examples discussed include Tesco's use of drop-down menus, rollover images, and storing customer shopping data in cookies to improve usability.
Team roles
The document outlines the roles and responsibilities of team members for a project. It identifies 8 key roles: Chair, Shaper, Plant, Monitor-Evaluator, Resource-Investigator, Company Worker, Team Worker, and Finisher. For each role, it provides a brief description of the person assigned to that role and their main responsibilities. The Chair, Anthony, acts as the team leader and manages resources and time. Lewis B is the Shaper who decides objectives and guides the team. Jack, the Plant, focuses on research and new ideas. Aaron, the Monitor-Evaluator, analyzes team statistics and progress. Lewis A investigates resources as the Resource-Investigator. Manny takes on practical work as the Company Worker.
Team effectiveness
The team was overall effective in meeting its objectives for the event. They completed documents swiftly according to standards but could have better utilized team members' strengths. Sales were very successful, making a £500 profit, but the small space of the tuck shop became crowded. Feedback noted the noise level and small space as downfalls. Customers rated the event highly but provided criticism to improve availability and space for the next event.
Website specification
The document outlines a website plan for the business department of The Howard School. The website aims to provide information for staff, students, and parents, publish required legal information, and serve as an electronic learning platform. It also seeks to raise the profile of the business department, advertise courses, and allow for easy communication between parents and staff. The target audience includes students aged 14-18, staff, and parents. Key functions include an upload area, user area, and sections for students and parents. Students would need to register to access course information. The proposed budget is £500 and planned launch date is March 2013.
Accruals and the going concern concept
The accruals and going concern concepts are regarded as fundamental in the preparation of financial statements. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of these concepts, explaining the reasons why these concepts may be difficult to apply or may be inconsistent with other concepts.
Website testing
The document outlines the testing plan for a new website. It discusses conducting acceptance testing with end users to ensure the website is usable and all links work properly. It also describes testing the website on different technical environments and browsers to ensure compatibility, as well as optimizing page loading speeds and connectivity. User feedback will be gathered during accessibility testing to check all pages and links function correctly for various users. The evaluation identifies advantages like compatibility across devices but notes images being used for text is a limitation. Future improvements include a mobile-friendly version and scripts to enable live updates and interactivity.
Incident log
The incident log recorded events from April 29th to May 6th, including missing documents that were reprinted, an attempted theft stopped and item retrieved, a scheduling disagreement resolved by checking documents, a scheduled person not arriving so backup called in, and a disagreement over profit that was resolved with assistance.
Benefits of credit for the economy and SME's
Credit is essential for both consumers and businesses in the UK economy. It allows individuals to access goods and services before fully paying for them, and provides opportunities for people to pursue that may not otherwise be possible without credit. However, there are also risks if credit is mismanaged, as seen in cases like Northern Rock bank crisis in 2007. While small businesses benefit greatly from access to loans that allow them to get started, there are risks of not being able to repay large business loans. Overall, the advantages of access to credit for consumers, small businesses and medium enterprises outweigh the disadvantages if managed responsibly.
Website launch plan
The document outlines plans for launching and maintaining a new school website. It discusses promoting the website before launch through posters and letters to generate interest. It will offer an initial 20% discount to encourage visitors to return. The website will have a preview system for testing changes, private registration for security, backup hosting, and a ticket system for user feedback. It will be hosted on the school's secure servers for faster loading and independence rather than an external host.
Business website analysis
The document discusses the design elements of several websites, including their use of color schemes, fonts, graphics, layouts, and consistency across pages. The Howard School website uses a blue and white color scheme. Tesco also uses consistent colors (red, blue, white) throughout their site. They work for you uses a simple grayscale scheme. All sites strive for consistency in navigation, fonts, and styles while tailoring content and layout to different page purposes.
Risk assessment
This risk assessment identifies hazards in a classroom environment and evaluates the probable risks. It notes that emergency signage is clear, the alarm system is tested regularly, and escape routes are well-labeled and kept clear. However, it finds that emergency lighting has not been tested and firefighting equipment availability could be improved. Overall controls are in place but some hazards like evacuation of disabled persons or lack of portable equipment testing require further assessment.

However, it finds that emergency lighting has not been tested and firefighting equipment availability could be improved. Overall controls are in place but some hazards like evacuation of disabled persons or lack of portable equipment testing require further assessment.
Health and safety legislation
This document summarizes several key health and safety acts and regulations that The Howard School must comply with, including: the Management of Health and Safety at Work Regulations 1999, which require risk assessments and safety measures; the Health and Safety at Work, etc Act 1974, which provides a framework to ensure staff and student safety; the Workplace Regulations 1992, which concern building standards; and regulations regarding accident reporting, hazardous substances, electricity safety, display screen equipment, and manual handling. The acts and regulations require risk assessments, safety controls, staff training, and other measures to protect health and safety.
Types of teams
Formal teams are created for specific, important purposes and have structured operations to achieve goals within set constraints like budgets and timelines. Examples include job interviewing teams and event planning teams. Informal teams form more casually to improve work processes in less important ways without constraints, like sports teams discussing game tactics. The optimal team size is around five members, large enough for diverse skills and perspectives but small enough for involvement and efficiency. Temporary teams work together just for one project, while permanent teams collaborate continuously as part of an organization. Benefits of teams include setting and monitoring goals, reviewing performance, sharing expertise, fostering innovation, and identifying talents.
Event report
The document discusses evaluating the success of a recent event and planning improvements for future events. Key details include:
1) The event made a profit of over £2,000 according to financial analysis, and feedback from questionnaires and interviews was largely positive, indicating the event was successful.
2) Areas for improvement identified were unexpected high demand for some tuck shop items causing stock outs, and the tuck shop area being too crowded and noisy.
3) For future events, the document proposes improving task allocation based on team strengths, better predicting popular tuck shop items, and relocating the tuck shop to a larger, quieter area outside side exits.
Hairspray contract
The contract outlines 9 conditions for the school production of Hairspray: 1) it must be performed on school grounds, 2) all performers must be 19 or under and regular members of the school group, 3) the cast must be full-time students, 4) no payment can be provided to the cast or orchestra, 5) no cast members can be in an actors' union, 6) the event cannot be recorded, 7) the production cannot tour other venues, and 9) specifics must be included in the titles and credits. The school met all the conditions of the contract for their student performance of Hairspray.
The interview process
The documents outline the stages of the hiring process from application to post-interview. They describe:
1) The application process where candidates submit application packs with details to help employers determine eligibility, and are provided information about job requirements.
2) The shortlisting process to select the most qualified candidates for interviews from a large applicant pool.
3) The interview stage where candidates are asked questions and evaluated based on characteristics. Interviewers use checklists to assess candidates.
4) The post-interview process of informing candidates of hiring decisions, providing feedback, and conducting reference and background checks before finalizing employment.
The stages are presented to inform applicants of what to expect and help move the process

The Evolution and Impact of OTT Platforms: A Deep Dive into the Future of Ent...
This presentation provides a thorough examination of Over-the-Top (OTT) platforms, focusing on their development and substantial influence on the entertainment industry, with a particular emphasis on the Indian market.We begin with an introduction to OTT platforms, defining them as streaming services that deliver content directly over the internet, bypassing traditional broadcast channels. These platforms offer a variety of content, including movies, TV shows, and original productions, allowing users to access content on-demand across multiple devices.The historical context covers the early days of streaming, starting with Netflix's inception in 1997 as a DVD rental service and its transition to streaming in 2007. The presentation also highlights India's television journey, from the launch of Doordarshan in 1959 to the introduction of Direct-to-Home (DTH) satellite television in 2000, which expanded viewing choices and set the stage for the rise of OTT platforms like Big Flix, Ditto TV, Sony LIV, Hotstar, and Netflix. The business models of OTT platforms are explored in detail. Subscription Video on Demand (SVOD) models, exemplified by Netflix and Amazon Prime Video, offer unlimited content access for a monthly fee. Transactional Video on Demand (TVOD) models, like iTunes and Sky Box Office, allow users to pay for individual pieces of content. Advertising-Based Video on Demand (AVOD) models, such as YouTube and Facebook Watch, provide free content supported by advertisements. Hybrid models combine elements of SVOD and AVOD, offering flexibility to cater to diverse audience preferences.
Content acquisition strategies are also discussed, highlighting the dual approach of purchasing broadcasting rights for existing films and TV shows and investing in original content production. This section underscores the importance of a robust content library in attracting and retaining subscribers.The presentation addresses the challenges faced by OTT platforms, including the unpredictability of content acquisition and audience preferences. It emphasizes the difficulty of balancing content investment with returns in a competitive market, the high costs associated with marketing, and the need for continuous innovation and adaptation to stay relevant.
The impact of OTT platforms on the Bollywood film industry is significant. The competition for viewers has led to a decrease in cinema ticket sales, affecting the revenue of Bollywood films that traditionally rely on theatrical releases. Additionally, OTT platforms now pay less for film rights due to the uncertain success of films in cinemas.
Looking ahead, the future of OTT in India appears promising. The market is expected to grow by 20% annually, reaching a value of ₹1200 billion by the end of the decade. The increasing availability of affordable smartphones and internet access will drive this growth, making OTT platforms a primary source of entertainment for many viewers.

Understanding User Needs and Satisfying Them
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs
