Comparison of products and service These two companies play a vital role in the coffee industry in Saudi. This is because they offer similar products but the mode of presentation to the customers differs. This means that, despite the similarity in products and services offered by these key players in Saudi market, there are some differences which make them differ in customer satisfaction. Both companies deal with serving customers with coffee brewed within their premises (Corte swearingen, 2010). In fact, they brew their coffee brands to meet customer expectations hence attaining the ability to retain customers. dr. CAFÉ COFFEE ensures that they offer the best services to their customers in order to encourage them to come back. The management came up with a strategy of making the outlet accessible to potential customers. Unlike Starbucks, dr CAFÉ COFFEE has been able to open so many outlets in Saudi market hence getting a stable base to beat its challenger in the market. This is advantageous because customers do not have to travel long distances to have a cup of their favorite brand. The services inside dr. CAFE COFFEE are better that those at the Starbucks hence becoming a preference to many customers. The difference in service provision results from the fact that the service providers at dr. CAFÉ COFFEE are highly trained on customer service (Hulsmann and Pfeffermann, 2011). In addition, upon their employment they are taken through several trainings on customer service and public relations. Starbucks is better in the provision of snacks to the customers hence creating a challenge for dr. CAFÉ COFFEE. dr. CAFÉ COFFEE has been specializing in coffee only hence getting credibility from customers all over the world. However, changes in the market have forced them to introduce snacks so that customers can have some accompaniment as they sip their favorite brands of coffee. Both companies concentrate on the main brands of coffee which are preferred by most consumers. These include Blonde roast, medium roast, dark roast, and flavored. All coffee outlets serve these brands of coffee, but they differ depending on who has brewed them. Other products sold by both companies include cookies and cakes. However, Starbucks has other dishes in its menu, and this makes it different from other coffee companies in Saudi market. Food has kept the company in a better position to challenge its competitors since many customers end up shifting to Starbucks. This happens as they look for places where they can take coffee and have lunch or dinner as they go about their businesses. Starbucks provide nutritious foods hence giving them an advantage over dr. CAFE COFFEE because customers who are careful about their health pref
Introduction It has been a fact that is increasingly gaining vigor that the religious lines tend to resist or demise the importance of secular agents like technology and the shifting trends of life among others. The world is so complex with new ideas cropping from the very creations of God that it is much difficult to ascertain which is correct and vice versa. It is equally complex to note which ideas are from God or not and this is true. Which things are considered out of the mind of God and which are within? Moreover, how do we know who says the truth and what gauges the level of that truth? These are among the many questions that have been raised regarding playing God. This paper critically comments on Coady’s passage on accusations of playing God normally focused on the secular agents by the predominant religious leaders and the possibility of the trend shifting back to the religious leaders. Playing God can refer to someone who takes on duties that are meant for God in human lives. Such roles may include a situation where one has to choose one or more people when all cannot be saved from death. This is a role left to God and when one takes it over, it brings controversy. Various scientific activities have raised eyebrows on the extent to which they go with regards to God’s role and authority in His creations. Such includes, abortion, cloning, death, Human genetic engineering among others. These have plausibly been 3presumed anti-God and have brought the debate on their origin. It is important to note that in most cases it has been the religious leaders teaming to reject such methods. There is also this complex issue of who knows the will of God? Discussion Coady sees the possibility of the playing God shifting to the side of religious leaders. The Church accuses the secular world of playing God. The reasons they give are based on their perceptions of what is good and according to the secular world, without clear outlining proofs. New technologies have brought advanced ways of saving lives, in healthcare sectors, faster communication, infrastructures, and many other discoveries. Interestingly, the Church has grown to accept most of these technologies with time. In the dark age when Catholicism was paramount and just at the beginning of such impervious inventions like medicine and electronics, at first never accepted such forms of treatments for patients. But this changed later on as they even established hospitals, leading to much faster growth in the healthcare sector. Recently, more advanced technologies have been developed; such is their ladder that they even eliminate some hereditary genes during fertilization to filter out those they consider bad for the development of children. This has caused havoc in the Church as they believe that reproduction is God’s purpose and when Human modifies it, and then there is a high probability of endangering the lives of the inhabitants of the world and as well missing the whole point of
Introduction A resume is a document showing the skill sets and the background of an individual. The resume document is commonly drafted by an individual mainly to secure a new employment opportunity. A resume is composed of various vital components that help an individual to secure certain job opportunity. Among the elements contained in a resume include concessive information of education and experience related to the targeted job. The document is one of the prior devices developed by an employer together with an application packet of a job and a cover latter. This is basically used to screen the applicants’ potentiality of the given job before conducting an interview. A resume in most of the countries can be compared to curriculum vitae with exception of the United States and Canada among other countries. Tips on how to write a resume Before drafting anything in the name of a resume on a writing sheet, one should consider the job opportunity in question. The writer should target a specific job of great qualification and experience in the career field. However the writer should try as much as possible to shade the truth by simply being honest to his allegations and transparent parse. The employee should not always boost himself in the documented content in the resume instead should give a true picture of whom he is. The employee should strictly maintain the professional posture while presenting the resume so that whatever is written should be entrusted thus earning someone a job (Cortes & Mueller, 2007). The writer should also ensure that, these existing funny titles, email addresses, and fonts never feature in the document when writing. Considering this condition, an individual will always be described as being discipli
Though technology has contributed a lot in film making, it lacks the ability to make a superior artistic impression; rather, technique has and still achieves this artistic aspect. Despite the technological advancement that has brought improvement in film creation such as grain format, pixel count and horizontal resolution, effectiveness of pictures depend on the techniques with origin from hundreds of years ago. A cinematography technique which deals with lighting of the images determines the effectiveness of transmission of the movies meaning which is intended by the film maker to the audience. Determining the lighting and the choice of the camera during the recording process of photographic images for film will determine the creativity and interpretation of the authors’ original work through the recorded physical events (Brown, 2002). In cinematography, Chiaroscuro technique has played a major role in any film production. Chiaroscuro (an Italian name for ‘light and shade’) technique, uses combination of light and shadow to create a three dimensional palette from a two dimensional one through creation of background. This give depth to the images determining the emotion associated with the movie. In the film “Godfather “ for instance, the producer uses this technique to bring out lively three dimensional images through employment of specific light-set-ups based on the paintings on the light and shadow already in hand. The producer achieves this through putting his actor on these light set-ups providing appropriate light and shadow on the actors and background in a way that brings out the actors appearance to resemble the intended image of a Godfather and other stars such as Marlene Dietrich (Malkiewicz & Rogers, 1973). The artists considers the effect that the real light has on the place of the shadow and the light in painting and through application of light, they are able to bring the painting into life. Through this technique, cinematographer brings out a scene with a clue of what the scene ought to appear. From what he already knows concerning the scene, he is able to combine the colors on which to project towards the scene to bring a real image. The producer of the film draws on the picture pertaining the actor and the scene in printing to bring out real images from them. Unlike the early used techniques which never gave enthusiastic images, Chiaroscuro technique creates a connection between the images and the meaning intended. The early painted images only gave an expression of flat images on a canvas. However, this technique gives life in the movie by creating scenes that resemble world’s reality by creating a pleasing effect of the image. The technique achieves this through division of the space into ample lights and shades which prevents confusion when watching the movie by leading the eye around the composition (Maltin, 1978). As a result the viewer is enabled to see the primary subject first and slowly to the rest of the picture in a process that keeps parts in obscurity, bringing into sig
Police officers should be able to manage various complicated situations that is why not every person can perform their duties. The most important characteristics of these professionals are:   * Enjoy interacting with people. Every day, officers get in touch with different individuals that include their colleagues and the representatives of the general public. For example, they are often asked to provide security services at important events. They cannot be occupied only in paperwork or get irritated every time they leave their workplace.   * Be a good team player. Police officers often have partners, work in groups, and contact other professionals from the law enforcement community. In this way, they should be able to both lead and follow others to create a positive and safe environment needed to reach their mutual goal.   * Be a problem solver. Officers deal with various ambiguous situations while working. They make complicated decisions that influence the lives of other people. They should be able to do it immediately to reduce the effects provided on the representatives of the community. There are a lot of other characteristics that should be present in every police officer, but these seem to be the most critical because without them officers would not be able to perform their duties appropriately. However, it cannot be said about a shooting skill, for instance. Of course, police officers should be able to protect people and catch criminals. Nevertheless, they usually manage to reach this goal due to their communication and decision-making skills regardless of those scenes that are often depicted in the movies. It is not critical for an officer to be physically attractive. Of course, appearance has an enormous influence on people’s perceptions, but it does not mean that citizens will not be thankful to an officer who has scars on his face. Still, it does not mean that he/she should stop washing hair and changing dirty clothes. Love for monotonous work is not important for officers as well. Even though they need to prepare numerous reports and wait in ambush, their job remains multifarious. There are three operational styles of policing, and each of them is rather effective. Nevertheless, service style seems to be the best option for the population, as it is oriented at people instead of being focused on order or the legal system. Those departments that utilize it pay a lot of attention to community opinion. They focus on the necessity to prevent any violation of people’s privacy and make arrests only when it is needed. They protect citizens from burglaries and robberies, being less interested in minor infractions. Service police departments also ensure the safety of citizens from outsiders who can potentially harm their well-being. Emphasis is also made on public relations, which means that the community is aware of the actions conducted by officers and decisions made by them. Moreover, being aligned with the financial status of the citizens, these depar
Introduction There has been a rise in concern with the factors that affect the degree to which an employee dedicates himself to an organization. The common reference to employment as the trade of effort and devotion for physical rewards suggests the importance of coming up with a comprehensive social exchange explanation of organizational commitment (Eisenberger et al, 1986, p. 1). Therefore, to create a stronger employee-employer bond where the employee feels valued, an organization needs to adopt a Perceived Organizational Support (POS). By definition, POS is the scale to which employees believe the organization holds their contributions significant and is concerned about their well-being. Generally, POS is considered an organization’s reciprocity measure toward its workforce as they tend to perform better to repay the POS. Discussion One key aspect of organizational commitment stresses the economic and social costs of leaving a current employer, employees may think that particular expertise acquired from their current employee may not be valued elsewhere, or that recurrent job shifts may damage an individual’s repute for stability and devotion. Therefore, when staff layoff becomes inevitable, the organization must strive to show its support to the survivors and victims throughout the process. The study of how persons act in response to layoffs should typically begin after the actual layoff, but this is not possible as legislation in countries such as the US requires that employees be informed of an impending layoff 60 days in advance (Naumann et al , 1998, p. 357). As a result, persons notified of their layoffs will remain underemployment for a considerable amount of time- and are expected to perform their duties. The organization must employ a POS so that the workers do not feel unwanted or unappreciated and prove to them that the layoff is a standard procedure. For the case at hand, there are different forms of support that the organization could offer to the employees, both the victims and survivors of the layoff. First, as said earlier, the workers can be notified of the layoff some few months earlier so they can start making the necessary arrangements, for example, looking for an alternative job or engaging in business ventures. However, job performance and loyalty to the organization are likely to fall after the workers are informed of the impending layoff, or the workers may simply sabotage their duties leading to a decline in productivity, the survivors may have to compensate for this and even work longer hours to maintain the same productivity. Early notification of a layoff gives ample time for the survivors to restructure how they will be working, in the case of automation of services, it gives them time to familiarize themselves with the new system. Another form of support the organization could offer the employees who have been laid off is to exhibit fairness in the layoff procedure. A study by Bies, Martin, and Brockner (1993) shows that the level of fairness in the layoff procedure affects the reaction to the news of the forthcoming job
Multinational corporations (MNCs) are ranked second (after transnational organizations) when international organizations are categorized based on their level of involvement in international activities. By their simplistic definition, they are corporations owning facilities, assets and operating in at least one foreign nation. According to Haghirian (2010, p.59), modern MNCs have hundreds of thousands of organizational members or employees. These members fall under three types; namely expatriates, host-country nationals, and third-country nationals. They form diverse workforces based on the notion that they are mosaic of persons who bring different backgrounds, perspectives, beliefs, genders, disabilities, races, competencies and styles as assets to the MNCs (Rasmussen, 2006, p.1). It is from the above motivational background that the succeeding paragraphs discuss what really describes each of the identified members. Starting with expatriates, this essay establishes that MNCs’ definition of the term complies with that of most academic literature. As such, the term defines specialized and highly qualified members (or employees) whose overseas assignments last from one to five years. The key reason for calling on the services of expatriates occurs from the need to fill assignments which are demand-oriented. An additional reason is derived from the fact that the existing members may lack requisite expertise or technical knowledge thus calling on expatriates to address this gap. Nonetheless, borrowing from Barbian (2006, p.31), this essay advices that there is need to advance pre-departure training to these categories of members to expose them to the envisioned ‘culture shock’ likely to be experienced in all foreign cultures. Alternatively, Host-Country Nationals (HCNs) are residents or citizens of a nation that provide or “host” local facilities and property, for MNCs’ operations abroad (Vance & Paik, 2010, p.144). These employees can come from the host-countries’ national labor forces. The obvious advantage of such members is that they are
Introduction Child obesity has been linked to health complications in adulthood, which include diabetes 2, cardiac failure, and prostate cancers among others. Statistics obtained from the World Health Organization (WHO) indicates that about 18% of children in the US are overweight or obese (CDC, 2011). Therefore, appropriate policies need to be adopted to mitigate the illness. The rise in childhood obesity has been linked to excessive sugary food intake both at home and in schools. Most schools have allowed companies producing soft drinks in the US to set up vendor shops in the various institutions for financial gains. Soft drinks are the main source of sugar foods, thus allowing their sale in schools is a major setback to the fight against childhood obesity in the US. This proposal will advise policymakers to enact legislations to restrict the free sale of soft drinks in schools to cut down their consumption by students. The chosen policy issue, the results, and the importance of this issue to nursing Various researchers have focused on the topic of childhood obesity to unravel the relationship between the disease and the consumption of sugary food. Welsh et al. (2005) found that daily “consumption of one or more sugar-sweetened drink increased the chance of overweight among children” (p. 225). Besides, this trend escalated the likelihood of remaining overweight among children already established as obese. Therefore, Welsh et al. (2005) recommended a set of policies to regulate the consumption of such drinks in schools. The policies are based on increasing of taxes to make the soft drinks more expensive and, as a result, less attractive to kids. However, such policies have faced opposition from the producing companies and other lobby groups. Attempts to enforce policies to regulate the sale of soft drinks in schools have also faced various drawbacks across the world. For example, in New York, a court order stopped a proposal to ban the sale of big sodas (Lesser, Zimmerman, & Cohen, 2013). This policy issue is important to the nursing practice since it will lead to a decrease in the number of children seeking medical help from nurses. The disease has been linked to other diseases in adulthood such as diabetes and hypertension, which are some of the leading causes of death in the world. Given that nurses are directly involved in the provision of care for patients with various complications, the policy will work to reduce cases of such diseases, thus make the nurses’ work easier. Additionally, the cost of health had an increasing trend over the past few decades, thus forcing the US government to s
Introduction The urgent care clinic at an academic dental hospital plays a critical role in meeting the healthcare needs of the local population. An evaluation was conducted to determine factors that affect the effective delivery of services at this institution. The evaluation revealed that one of the major concerns was the queuing system. It was evident that patients spent a lot of time in the queues before accessing the services they need. Magauran, Shankar, and Kahn (2016) argue that the traditional queuing system is no longer appropriate in a modern hospital. The evaluation revealed that time is wasted by patients who do not understand the right queues based on the service they need. They spend time in the wrong queues only to be redirected by the staff. The evaluation also revealed that this problem was affecting the staff. At the reception, there were nurses who had to guide patients based on the services they needed. The task was demanding, and some patients felt uncomfortable explaining their problems to them. It was clear that an automated queuing system was necessary to improve service delivery. The Significance of Healthcare Evaluation The healthcare system in the United Arab Emirates and many other regional countries is going through a transformation. As new technologies emerge, stakeholders in this sector try to come up with a means of enhancing the quality of services offered to patients. According to the Health Foundation (2015), healthcare evaluation has become one of the critical activities meant to improve service delivery in hospitals. It is necessary to conduct regular evaluations to understand the current issues faced by patients and medical practitioners and ways of addressing them. The regular evaluation helps in maintaining consistent improvement of service delivery. Every time an evaluation is conducted, a new issue of concern will be identified (Frye & Hemmer, 2012). The evaluation will define the issue, analyze it, and propose ways of addressing it to improve patients’ experience. Recent healthcare evaluation conducted in this country shows that one of the issues which are affecting patients’ experience in these institutions is the time they have t
