Working in a food industry, which is the target market in the specified case, means dealing with a range of processes, from manufacturing to packaging, which presupposes that an introduction of an efficient control system is required. At this point, the services concerning the integration of control systems in the food and drinks industry factor in. It is crucial for a company in the food and beverage industry to take control of its key processes and deliver products timely (OECD 16). Since in food and beverage industry, a lot of energy is required for carrying out basic cooking processes, particularly, heating the food, not to mention the fact that most products must be stored under the room temperature. Therefore, for a company providing its customers with food and drinks, it is imperative to be equipped with the latest appliances allowing for the safety of its products and exploring the existing energy-saving options. As a company that does not have a well-defined reputation in the target market yet, Atlas needs to make the first successful step in conquering the latter. Attracting potential customers is an essential element of promoting the company; therefore, Atlas must view its current customers as extremely valuable. Despite Visy’s dubious past, Atlas still must work with it so that the company could have a positive score on its record and prove the target customers that the organization is capable of approaching a business problem on a professional level, without any bias and prejudices concerning the dubious past of the customer (McDonald 188). To be more specific, the case of Visy and Amcor needs to be brought up. According to the details of the case, Visy was involved in a financial fraud with Amcor that was related to the accounting processes within the companies. Working in the cardboard production industry, the companies in question managed to conjure a price-fixing scam, which resulted in a major scandal with a resulting court case and the accusation of Visa in financial fraud complicity (Zabihollah and Riley 67). It should be born in mind, though, that Visy was considered Amcor’s associate and charged for a smaller amount of money that its partner in crime was. According to the court decision, Visy was supposed to pay only one-third of the sum that the two companies were charged with. Nevertheless, it is obvious that Visa has stained its reputation with a price-fixing case. Therefore, when considering Visy as a customer, one must examine the possible consequences of making a deal with a company that has a dubious past. Since the organization is known for being involved in a price-fixing scam, there is a possibility that its members are going to deceive its future partners once again for the sake of a quick and easy gain (Christensen, Cortell and Baker 22). However, it could be argued that Visa’s record does not define its future choices. Seeing that the company has recently recovered from a hiatus caused by the Visy and Amcor case, it is reasonable to suggest that the company is seeking ways to improve its current reputation, as well as gain a financial profit. Hence, Visy can be trusted a
Utilitarianism is the notion that the moral value of an action is determined by its helpfulness in producing pleasure or happiness as perceived among the public. It focuses on pleasure and pain and was developed by the philosopher Bentham Jeremy. Utilitarianism is the thought that an ethical value of an act is determined exclusively by its efficacy in providing happiness or enjoyment as summed amid all conscious beings (Singer 90). It is, therefore, true to say that the ethical value of an act is indomitable by its result. Utilitarianism can be described as the supreme happiness principle. Utility, the best to be capitalized on, has been explained by several people as happiness or contentment, though the first choice utilitarian explains it as a fulfillment of preferences. Thesis Statement: As much as Utilitarianism has its benefits, it also contains inherent risks. In this theory of act utilitarianism, is well stated that, when one is faced with a decision to make, the first
Most of the modern music instruments such as the guitar saxophone and the piano were invented by various individuals several years back. The piano is today one of the most widely played musical instruments (Antique Digest). This instrument is played through a key board (Good 76). It was commonly used in classical music during solo performance and generally as an accompaniment (Fischer). In addition to these, the piano is also used in composing and rehearsal. Even though this instrument remains expensive, it has remained a popular because of its versatility and ubiquity. The word piano originated from an Italian word pianoforte which means instrument. “The musical terms piano and forte mean quiet and loud, and in this context refers to the variations in volume of sound the instrument produces in response to a pianist ‘s touch on the keys” (Lhevinne 123). Bartolomeo Cristofori is today a credited for having invented the modern piano. Before he developed the piano, he made his earlier instruments using strings and they were very quiet compared to the current piano. The manufacturing of the piano became popular towards the last phase of the eighteenth century especially in Vienesse School. Vienesse piano models were made of wooden frames and each had two strings. They also had hammers covered with leather materials. The piano instrument was later refined through a series of improvements which included the following. Felt hammer covering replaced the use of leather covering or cotton. Iron frames were also used to enhance the piano sound. Broadwood is the company a credited for the formal manufacturing of the piano instruments (American Piano Association). Vienesse Company became one of its key competitors. Today many companies have engaged in production of piano instruments. At present, there are many designs of the piano and they vary in sizes and use. For example, the modern pianos contain two important configurations. “Almost every modern piano has thirty six black keys and fifty two white keys for a total of eighty eight keys”. “Many older pianos only have eighty five keys (seven octaves from A 0 to A 7 ), while some manufacturers extend the range further in one or both directions” (Humphries 345). Just like other instruments, the piano also needs regular maintenance and proper care. For example, the piano should be tuned in order to maintain the proper pitch needed for an effective performance. Other parts of the piano should also be periodically regulated (Harris). The piano has been used by many musicians to compose music. Some of the composers include the following individuals: “York Bowen, Erick Satie, Duke Elington, Anthony Braxton, and James Douglas” (Brings). Apart from these composers, we have some outstanding pieces which include the following. Hesitation Blues was composed by an individual known as Jelly Morton, I Got a Woman was formally composed by Charles Ray. These pieces are classified under the genre of blues. Some of the piano pieces that were composed in the genre of jazz included: “ body and soul which was produced by Edward Heyman together with Johnny Green,
Most of Dewey’s views on Christianity were influenced by his education at Johns Hopkins University. As a child, he attempted to believe the church doctrines but it was not possible for him. He argued that he did not understand the theory of justice which called for vindication of individuals who committed offences according to the laws of the land followed by a reform process. For him, this portrayed God as unfair. He also believed that the abolishment of ancient institutions that were originally inclined to Christianity was helpful to the society. One of the institutions he had in mind was the home, which played an important role in instilling discipline. He argued that adults forced children to behave in a certain manner because they did not trust their intelligence. As a result, the habits of growing children were determined by the customs of the adults around them. Dewey believed that this was not supposed to happen because it denied children a chance to express their originality. The Christianity practiced in homes was therefore not necessary because it was simply a reproduction of the beliefs of the parents. Dewey was not opposed to the church as a type of a social institution. He argued that churches were supposed to restore their reputation by promoting the most cherished and prized values in human beings. His contention against Christianity was the separation that existed between those who were considered saved and the lost ones. He said that religious experience was supposed to emphasize moral conviction. According to him, Christianity was good if it worked for individuals. However, many did not see its importance thus there was no need to include it in education. This compelled him to consider the importance of universals to provide meaning, but he determined that individuals were the universals. Truth to him kept on changing as people understood and interpreted things differently. His existence in the world was characterized by empirical verification of whatever he believed in . Dewey was of the view that human beings did not bother to know the impacts of exploring and exploiting the possibility of experience. He argued that Christianity had been contaminated by the supernatural and that it was a representation of things that were beyond experience. He therefore argued that morality was based on such supernaturalism which Christians subscribed to. The culture in which he lived in did not receive his views on the teachings of Christ with enthusiasm. It believed that God had revealed a perfect way through which human beings understood him. Christians believed that Christianity was the only way through which human beings derived meaning or facts from anything. To them, it was the basis of everything and nothing could be understood outside the r
The film “The Breakfast Club” explores friendship among teenagers, high school students. It narrates about three adolescent boys and two girls from different school cliques, who spend a Saturday in detention, exploring their selves as well as the others’ personalities. At first, they spend several hours arguing, blaming, and labeling one another, i.e. acting out their family-based and social patterns and stereotypes. However, after finding out they have a lot in common, the five teenagers unite, despite their social and psychological differences, and establish a strong friendship. In the letter to their instructor they reveal their newly grown belief in their similarity: “But what we found out is that each one of us is a brain (Brian Johnson), and an athlete (Andy Clark), and a basket case (Allison Reynolds), a princess (Claire Standish) and a criminal (John Bender).” The main themes which can be identified in the storyline are crisis as a cause and catalyst of friendship, friendship and belonging, and disclosure and intimacy in friendship. First of all, the film is instrumental in understanding the idea that the precondition of friendship is a crisis or significant conflict (Lecture Notes, Week 1, p.2). In the present case, the characters undergo the crisis of delinquency, or “crossing the line”, and the subsequent penalty. In particular, Brian brought up in the perfectionist spirit, receives an “F” and takes a flare gun to the school. Andy, a talented sportsman, feeling the pressure of the necessity of following his father’s role model, beats a fellow student. Claire skips a class deciding to go shopping and entertainment. This crisis of delinquency consists of the clash between values, patterns, and expectations, nurtured in these students since their early years, and their actual behavior. In
Mark Elliot Zuckerberg is an American co-finder, president and Chief Executive Officer of Facebook; a site for social network. Zuckerberg together with his classmates Chris Hughes, Dustin Moskovitz and Eduardo Saverin co-founded the social network while they were studying at Harvard University in 2004. The site became a success being used by people all over the world. This became a great achievement of Zuckerberg because through facebook, he did not only gained popularity but he became paper billionaire at a early age of 24. In 2010, Zuckerberg was ranked among top 35 richest Americans by Forbes. At the age of 26, he owned wealth worth $7 billion which gave him the chance to be ranked among richest Americans. In 2010 Zuckerberg was also named in Time magazine as “ Person of the Year (McDevitt 2010).”At the beginning of this year, Zuckerberg possessed personal wealth worth $17.5 billion. Zuckerberg’s achievements are as a result of strong personality that he possesses. Zuckerberg’s prowess in computer is not questionable; it is a unique trait that he possesses. Zuckerberg developed interest in computers when he was very young, about 12 years old. At this age, Zuckerberg managed to use Atari BASIC to formulate a program which he named Zucknet for messaging. The program was also used by the father in his dental office for messaging. The whole family also used the program within the house for communication. Zuckerberg also created computer games when he was 12 years old. According to Allport, a person’s trait usually predicts his behaviours and can also establish the cause of some actions (Allport 1960). A person’s trait can also develop as a major function of learning which makes them easily adapt to social circumstances when they try to achieve their needs. Zuckerberg possessed strong personality traits such as cardinal trait which is a trait that is dominant in a person’s life which revolves around them. Cardinal trait usually dominates everything in a person’s life especially everything that they do. This explains why Zuckerberg became an expert in computers that made him develop Facebook, computer games and Zucknet at an early age. Zuckerberg also possessed central traits which are qualities that mainly characterize his personal daily interactions. His intelligence is one of such traits. This is also one of the reasons why Zuckerberg managed to create mp3 programs when studied a
Introduction and summary of the case This case study is related to a reputed car manufacturer Tomoko. The case is associated with the Marketing Manager of the company, Mr. Clive Smith. The company is in the planning process of launching its new model by the year 2010. He is faced with the problem of preparing a marketing plan for the new model. The new car is to be named ‘Econocar’ by the company. Tomoko is a Europe-based car manufacturer. The launch of the new model is different from the usual because the new car is fully based on pollution control standards. The product is supposed to portray economy and low emission as its primary features. “Whilst vehicle engine technology is improving all the time; there are some vehicles that emit excessive pollution due to a variety of factors.” (Vehicle pollution. 2006). So the major issue in front of Clive is to develop better battery technology. The present battery technology is not sufficient for the company to launch the Econocar by 2010. Another major issue is that the Japanese competitor Gomoco has come up with the idea of the launch of their model, which would be a competitor for Econocar. The model was named by Gomoco as a Green car. This announcement by Gomoco made Clive think deeply. He was confused whether Gomoco had this technology in the beginning or are they going to develop the technology. Tomoko is still in the thought process of developing such a technology. It is at this time that he comes to know from one of his colleagues Sandeep that the research and development facility of Gomoco is based in India, and Sandeep’s cousin work there. Sandeep said that his cousin is going to leave the job for personal reasons. This instance makes Clive think of a solution, and this case study addresses two key problems based on that. The major motive behind all those is to develop a marketing plan for Econocar. The two key problems of the case study are explained to find the solution. Clive’s response to Sandeep In this case, Clive is in a critical situation. He was in the planning stage for the company’s Ecocnocar. He, along with other marketing teams, was confused with the decision of Gomoco. Now Clive is aware of the fact that Sandeep’s cousin Veejay is employed in Gomoco
The Roman Empire was largely polytheistic, suggesting that people acknowledged and honored several different gods. They thought that these entities had a part in the formation of Roman civilization and shaped the events of people’s everyday lives (Bartsch, 2020). Because of Rome’s geographical location, its population had regular interaction with Greek peoples who had expanded their territory into the Italian peninsula and Sicily (Beard, 2015). Many features of Greek culture were borrowed by Rome, with minor modifications to fit their requirements. According to Polybius ‘ interpretation of the Roman government, the monarchy was solidified in the office of the Consul. The tales of Manilus Hippomanes, Olivier de Noyen, and Julien Barneuve are connected through history in The Dream of Scipio by a philosophical musing claiming that man is accountable for his action’s own redemption, but only by understanding, not by works or faith (Ruden, 2013). Rome had two chancellors, each in control of divisions of the Roman army and had the authority to convene conferences and present different initiatives before the Senate; they were acclaimed yearly. Citizenship in Rome was a complicated notion that differed depending on one’s gender, family, and status in society. Males were the only ones who could acquire full citizenship. A kid born of a legal union between a citizen father and a citizen mother would be granted citizenship by descent (Beard, 2015). Citizenship in the United States can be obtained by birth or registration. People are generally born U.S. citizens if they are born in America or are born overseas to U.S. citizens. They may also obtain U.S. nationality as a youngster as a result of the marriage of one or both adults.
There is a lack of information regarding the importance of motivation in self-regulation theories. Thus, the proponents of this study attempts to understand the role of motivation in the context of “strength, or limited-resource, model of self-control in several domains” (Baumeister & Vohs, 2007, p.1). The proponents of this research discovered that a reduction in resources can be overcome by motivation even if ego depletion is not the direct consequence of a lack of motivation. Interestingly, the study also discovered that self-regulation is linked to physical fuel specifically glucose-rich foods. Previous research has indicated that self-regulation is affected by at least three factors: a) standard; b) monitoring; c) self-regulatory strength (Baumeister & Vohs, 2007). Self-regulation must be linked to a particular standard because self-regulation at its core is altering behavioral response on account of a particular need or goal. Thus, a person desiring food must satisfy that need and there is no inner-conflict that prevents the individual from seeking and consuming viable food resources. However, if eating food at a particular time and particular quantities can endanger the person’s health, then, self-regulation is needed. Purpose of the Study The ability to self-regulate becomes weaker over time as the need to satisfy a particular urge grows stronger. This is countered by a monitoring scheme. For example, an accountability group helps a sex addict cope with his/her addiction knowing that there is a group of people monitoring his/her progress and interested in his/her success. On the other hand all of these things are useless to the individual if he/she has no self-regulatory strength. Previous research has uncovered that “after making many choices, the chooser is less able to engage in good self-control, suggesting that making choices exhausts the self over time” (Baumeister & Vohs, 2007, p.9). This phenomenon is also known as ego depletion. Previous research also pointed out that “physically tired people generally perform worse than others at strenuous tasks, but if the incentive is high enough, they can perform well despite their tiredness” (Baumeister & Vohs, 2007, p.10). There is also the added revelation that “effective self-regulation seems to involve utilizing the glucose in the bloodstream to achieve what is a psychologically difficult and biologically costly task, such as stifling one’s behavioral impulses or making difficult choices … when glucose – the primary source of fuel for all brain processes – has been depleted, the person is temporarily less able to function at optimal levels” (Baumeister & Vohs, 2007, p.11). It has been made clear that a person must not allow the self to reach a point of ego depletion and this
