The report analyzes North Texas, specifically Grayson and Fannin counties, as potential locations for outsourcing work. It finds that the cost of doing business, including labor rates, real estate costs, and taxes, is competitive in North Texas compared to other locations. While infrastructure costs are comparable, Grayson has more real estate options available. Both counties offer economic incentives to attract businesses. The report also examines the availability of workforce skills and provides recommendations to make the region more attractive for outsourcing. Overall, the analysis finds that North Texas is a viable location for call center, business process outsourcing, and some information technology outsourcing work.

Understanding and Coping with Change
Change is everywhere, yet very few people seem to embrace the concept. We are, for the most part, creatures of habit and follow daily routines. When change occurs, our activities and thought patterns are disrupted.
Write a four- to five-page APA formatted paper (excluding the title and reference pages), using a minimum of three scholarly sources in addition to the textbook, analyzing the internal and external factors contributing to an individual’s resistance to change.
Describe a situation where you or someone you know was resistant to change as identified in one of following areas:
a. Self-interest
b. Lack of understanding
c. Lack of trust in management
d. Differing assessments of the need for change
e. Low tolerance for change
Explain whether the resistance to change was caused by an internal or external factor. Using Kotter’s theory for change, provide a plan for overcoming that resistance. What will be done and how will you know that the plan has worked?
Originally from New York, NY I've travel all around the country and abroad. Within the first year after transferring from Texas to Georgia I was awarded a Charter Champion Award for excellence.
Charter Communications (NASDAQ: CHTR) has seen substantial changes in its business amid recent industry consolidation. Following the merger of Comcast (NASDAQ: CMCSA) and Time Warner Cable (NYSE: TWC) , Charter will jump ahead from the fourth-largest cable operator in the U.S. to second place.
The company struck financially savvy deals with Comcast and as a result, its video subscriber base will increase substantially. After the merger clears, Charter's own and managed subscriber base will jump from 4.4 million subs to 8.2 million households. The market is already recognizing that Charter stands to benefit significantly from this deal with Comcast, and as a result, Charter is trading at record highs and should reach newer highs.
Customer acquisitions from Comcast
Charter will own 5.7 million video subscribers and manage systems for another 2.5 million subscribers. After Comcast's merger with Time Warner Cable goes through, Comcast will divest roughly 3.9 million video subscribers. Comcast expects that this divestment will reduce its managed subscriber base to less than 30% of total U.S. MVPD subscribers and in the process aid it in getting regulatory approval.

This document discusses the importance of effective communication in organizations and some best practices. While technologies allow for information sharing, effective communication requires clear meaning and feedback. Corporate communications should be concise, avoid jargon, state the topic and reference previous discussions. Feedback is important to ensure shared understanding. Communication must flow two ways, and organizations risk overload without filtering irrelevant information. Clear, concise ideas that avoid ambiguity help facilitate understanding between individuals and groups.

Greetings everyone,
Thank you for supplying your progress reports on the status of the project for Week 5. As the weeks progress there can be seen (and displayed this week in the screenshot below) that there is a continuing progression, and movement across the requirements of the project, towards its submission.
It can be seen that the analysis and writing up of the report may present challenges. When using tools or frameworks for the analysis detail as per the criteria (of the tool/framework) to tie back to the research questions/direction and then produce findings. With regard to using PEST as an analysis tool (for those considering this) please address all aspects of PEST as relevant to your investigation. Ideally this will cover Political, Economic, Social and Technological elements appropriate to your data analysis and the methodology of your research project. If using PESTLE this will, in addition to those mentioned above, include Legal, and Environmental.
In the event that you are encountering a word limit issue when it comes to the analysis please consider making use of the Appendix/Appendices which can cater for the increase in information. This can then be referred to in-text as (Appendix ... ).
Please remember if you are still to complete the requisite elements, or may even be yet to commence on certain sections, review relevant topic areas in the subject and also review the class forum as there may be relevant and pertinent queries with responses. Post any questions you may have to the forum which has the added benefit of supplying information through response to the class.
Remember also it is possible to build upon the collection of data after commencing analysis, as it becomes evident to the researcher that additional data is needed. This may occur and can be the benefit of this process, draw in requisite data as required if you discover more is necessary. Locate the required data from reliable academic or industry sources, and if there are any deficits re-source as appropriate.
Engagement in the report, and its elements is a developing process, and will be accelerated as you are emerged in the research and formation of the report towards final submission.
Thank you again for supplying the progress reports and for all your contributions to the subject.
