An effective way to delve into a particular business area is to talk to representatives of large companies. An essential part of this process is asking questions that allow drawing the necessary conclusions about the companies’ operations. A few of the best questions to consider are:  1. How do companies present to their target customer? The fact is that creating a bicycle involves design invention, pricing, and raw material selection. For the industry to develop in-demand designs, managers need to anticipate and double down on the needs of potential customers (Mari, 2020). Consequently, such a question would reveal a company’s logic in creating a product.  2. How are the priorities between bike speed and safety? It is essential to understand that the bicycle is a means to get around more quickly and a form of entertainment, for example, for children or adults on a walk (Mari, 2020). Such a question will reveal the weaknesses and strengths of the company’s production.  3. For which country or region are the bicycles mainly produced? The fact is that states have a different cultures of leisure. Bikes, for example, are popular in the Netherlands, America, and Russia (Marqués, 2020). In Austria or Portugal, on the contrary, such transport is not in demand (Marqués, 2020). When analytics discover the answer to this question, they can understand what climatic conditions the industry is focusing on based on the geography of the countries.  4. What materials are used to make bicycles? Today’s world has many counterparts, such as steel, hard plastic, and carbon fiber. Based on the company’s answer, analytics can compare the cost of production and the product’s final price, thereby revealing the industry’s profit.  5. Does the company produce all-purpose bicycles or focus on each type of exploitation separately? Consumers prefer to use bikes for various purposes, from mountain biking to professional sports. By answering this question, analytics can see how well a company uses all possible business areas and whether it can increase its influence.  6. How environmentally friendly is the production facility? The critical point is that several bicycle consumers are eco-friendly (Marqués, 2020). Moreover, in today’s world, the harmfulness of production is an essential criterion for maintaining consumer loyalty (Marqués, 2020). By answering this question, the company can indirectly say to what extent it complies with one of the most critical areas of production optimization.
There are a lot of examples when parents choose a sexual reassignment surgery for the infant and as a result a child changes gender identity during the life (Pearson). One of the main reasons why it happens is the nature. Being treated in one or another way, the organism lives its own life. The biology influences psychology, therefore, being chosen the wrong gender many people cannot lead normal lives, they feel that there is something wrong with their organisms. As a result, many surgeons are held to return people the gender sex organs they feel are more convenient for them. Therefore, this is the main reason why I believe that sexual reassignment surgery should be provided in the consenting age. Gender is the biological identity and parents are unable to know which signs, either male or female, a person is going to develop. Parental choice is based on their desire and preposition, while children are going to live based on their inner feelings. Choosing the gender of intersex children, parents make those dependent on their choice. Practical experience and scientific research should help parents make a decision in favor of waiting when a child grow up to see which signs are predominant in their organism and on the basis of those signs the decision of gender identity should be made. Growing up with wrong sex organs, children feel that there is something wrong, they feel that they live in a strange body. Only waiting for children to reach consenting age may help solve the problem. Works Cited Pearson, Kim. “Sex, Lies, And Gender.” YouTube . 2010. Web.
“Above all it is thus that we can acquire the virtue of humility, and that is by far more precious treasure than all academic progress. From this point of view, it is perhaps even more useful to contemplate our stupidity than our sin.” These words of wisdom imply that the success of learning is not to elevate a person’s ego, but rather teach them humility through enhancing their understanding of the world. This appears to be the ultimate outcome of thorough academic engagement that reflects a person’s ability to acquire a certain degree of critical thinking and reflexivity. I am inclined to agree with the main idea expressed by the quotation. In my opinion, humility is a virtue that helps an individual become motivated and complete. Through this key quality, one can understand how their grow further in terms of personality. A humble individual will never overestimate their own skills and performance, meaning that they will remain in a constant pursuit of improvement. Furthermore, humility is a virtue that directly counteracts pride as the deadliest of sins. By exercising humility, a person acts by God’s design. When it comes to this quality, it is often opposed to success in both academics and career. More specifically, one may assume that humility negates confidence, preventing an individual from fulfilling their potential. For example, promising opportunities may be declined by a humble person simply because they do not consider themselves fit for this position. As far I am concerned, this point of view does not reflect the truth. Humility and success are not notion that are mutually exclusive. One the contrary, they complement each other, creating a strong unity, in which humility enables success and does not impede it in any way. In other words, this virtue should be opposed not to confidence but to arrogance. Humility creates room for self-analysis and critical thinking, keeping an individual engaged in the enhancement of their skills. It enables a realistic understanding of the strengths, as well as the points of growth, which ultimately contributes to the natural development of the academic success and career. In James 4:6, it is said: “But he gives us more grace. That is why Scripture says: “God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.” This message reflects the aforementioned vision of humility as the primary tool against the pride. The latter feeling is detrimental, it poisons the soul and pushes a person toward rash, unreasonable decisions. A proud person is often disrespectful of others, showing no love or compassion because of their clouded judgment. This characteristic does not align with an image of a successful and educated person that is evoked by Weil. An individual who truly excels in academics, learning the subject in all its depth and complexity will be humble and methodical in their development. This way, they truly fulfill their purpose as the conduits of God’s will favored by the Lord.
Introduction Those who are not a part of a nation’s foreign service or diplomatic corps may wonder about the importance of international law. The query about the significance of international law about global politics and contemporary issues is a legitimate question. A rightful answer is possible after examining the question in light of 20th-century events and how the application of international law affected the lives of people in different parts of the world. Two Major Attributes of International Law There is no need for a complicated and theoretical assessment of the technical components of international law to appreciate its positive impact in modern human history. It is possible to have a positive appreciation of the said legal framework by simply looking at two major attributes associated with the formulation and implementation of international law. The first major attribute is manifested through an ancient philosopher’s musings as to how men ought to behave. Writing almost two thousand years before the establishment of the United Nations, Cicero penned the following words: “We are obliged to respect, defend, and maintain the common bonds of union and fellowship that exist among all members of the human race” (Breau, 2016, p.1). Legal experts point to Cicero’s words as one of the pillars of international law, reminding and compelling statesmen and courts regarding the international responsibility of all nations to act, when a certain population of men, women, and children are suffering as the result of crimes against humanity, ethnic cleansing, and war crimes (Breau, 2016). The second major attribute of international law is manifested in the creation of powerful organizations and associations like the United Nations and the International Court of Justice that serve as mechanisms in preventing the onset of global warfare. Gone are the glory days of ancient and medieval conflicts when the absence of effective mediation systems and the threat of international backlash against a power-hungry state made it convenient for dictators and mad kings to disrespect boundaries and the rights of people to live free from fear and torment (Armstrong, Farrell, & Lambert, 2012). As a result, the existence and implementation of international law disincentivize the use of force to resolve territorial disputes or economic issues. The Challenge to International Law It is not a perfect world, and therefore, criticisms regarding the practical value of international law abound in broadcast media and legal literature (Armstrong et al., 2012). A review of historical events that transpired after the creation of the United Nations and the International Court of Justice is the natural and expected counter-argument from those unwilling to acknowledge the value of international law. An overview of popular cases linked to crimes against humanity and ethnic cleansing tends to support the negative assertion against international law. Critics recall Rwanda’s ethnic cleansing, and they are justified in their lack of confid
Introduction Mental illnesses constitute one of serious health problems worldwide. They are characterized by decline in cognitive functions and behavior which ultimately affects their social dealings. In certain instances, these problems are more confined to particular section of the society which in the present context is indigenous population of Australia. The existing problem is that indigenous people are more prone to be neglected or fail to receive proper attention of the health care workers. This is because of interference of poorly available data and analytic tools. It was of concern that such a drawback in extreme cases may also possibly contribute to rise in death cases from suicides. Clelland, Gould, and Parker (2007) described that the usefulness of indigenous mental health promotion interventions could not be determined if there is an inadequate evidence. Main body It may indicate that there is a need of concrete data to gain enough knowledge to render effective mental health services to indigenous population. Further, another problem is that these people fear that Western treatment models do not value their general views and cultural beliefs regarding mental health. However, it was believed that cross-cultural psychiatry was significant in contributing to the development of mental health services to minority cultural groups over the past 30 years. Although this approach has a constructive sign, it was giving an impression that many indigenous people were remaining mute or undisturbed to these advancements. The study article thus purposely focused on exploring the indigenous people to gain better insights on their cultural beliefs and lived experiences connected with mental health and mental health problems by reviewing qualitative empirical research. In the recent years, evidence based medicine has drawn the attention of many researchers with a hope that it would provide valuable information regarding care and effective management of the health concerns. For this purpose there is a need to review the available qualitative literature. Existing databases namely, CINAHL and Pre-CINHAL, Health source: nursing/academic edition, Pubmed /Medline, Proquest health and medical complete, Psyc Info, Science Direct, Synergy and Health InfoNet etc, were searched using the key words indigenous, indigenous mental health perceptions, understandings, beliefs, research and Australia. Reports that were not based on empirical research, expert commentaries, opinion pieces and community consultation were excluded from the literature selection criteria. Prior importance was given to the year 1995 due to Ways Forward report in influencing subsequent approaches to mental health research. The quality of the articles was finally evaluated to determine whether they are focusing on mental health including social and emotional well-being. Here, the concept of meta-synthesis was used to analyse the selected articles. Metasynthesis involves thorough understanding of related descriptions from various articles regarding a particular topic.
Introduction China emerges as a modern-day global economic superpower, the 5,000-year-old culture, and traditions that Chinese people are still practicing today could be one of its barriers to a smooth and effective business relationship with the Westerners. The rich ancient legacy of the great dynasties of the past is still being practiced and being revered, especially with regard to their concept of social relations. Two of these that constitute the Chinese concept of ‘face’ are li and mianzi. Foreigners, especially those who are not familiar with these practices could greatly damage their social relations with the Chinese if they these two separate yet interrelated concepts lightly and haphazardly. Main text The Chinese concept of ‘face’ revolves around two of the three important components of Chinese socialization philosophy: li and mianzi. Li (sometimes pronounced as lian) suggests the sense or feeling of ‘proper behavior and obligations to the society.’ Confucius, the famous Chinese sage who taught these concepts, believed that hierarchy in society should be maintained, whether the classification is based on family relationship, seniority, and occupational categories. A person belonging to a particular hierarchy should act and behave in accordance to where he belongs in the Confucian social stratification. On the other hand, the expectation that, at all times and in all ways, Chinese are “to be treated commensurate with their position in whatever hierarchies they personally occupy” is the essence of mianzi. Chinese people are extremely sensitive, to a point of being hypersensitive, to the treatment of others to them with regards to the diminishment of their position in the hierarchy (Lenard 2006). Li is a sort of ‘obligations and behaviors’ that Chinese feel is expected to be done by a person belonging to a social hierarchy, whereas mianzi is their reaction to the treatment of others to concerning their position in the social hierarchy. Mianzi, which literally means ‘face value,’ is still highly valued by Chinese people despite the rapid modernization and increased exposure to different cultures that China is experiencing at present, that even its youth still preserve this in their social interaction. To show how Chinese people still revere these Chinese social principles, in a survey conducted by China Youth Daily that Shan (2005) mentioned in his article, ‘over 93 percent of the 1,150 polled said they pay much attention to their mianzi.’ Also, according to the same survey, brain workers, such as business executives, pay more attention to their mianzi than manual laborers. The Chinese notion of face that is strange to Western cultures serves as a communication and relationship barrier that could ruin business transactions. So to develop

Suez Canal is known all around the world due to its frequent presence on the news and in the middle of various geopolitical and economical conflicts, confrontations, misunderstandings and rivalries. Through its history the Suez Canal has always been a spot of strategic interest of various powerful and influential states such as the United States, Great Britain, the USSR and, of course, Egypt. The Suez Canal lies on the territory of Egypt. It was first opened in 1860s. The appearance of this new trade way gave a push to the world’s economies and revolutionized the trading system. It also made an immense impact on Egypt. The Canal’s influence on the territory around turned out to be both positive and negative (Linehan, par. 1). The length of the Suez Canal is one hundred and one nautical miles. It is also only four hundred and thirty six feet wide and its depth is seventy three feet. The size of the ships and the weight of the cargo permitted to pass through the Canal are strictly regulated. The Canal works day and night, and the accidents there are very rare. Due to its special geographical position, the Suez Canal is often called the shortest way from the global East to the West. The canal links Port Said located in the Mediterranean Sea and Suez in the Red Sea. Representing a short cut between the East and West it has always been a very import
Introduction The name of my organization is Zara. Zara is an international fashion company. It manufactures high-class ladies’ fashion. The company’s headquarters are in Spain. The firm has its own Designer’s Labels for its products. It is an international company operating worldwide. Organizational Structure Zara is organized into a functional departmentalization. The departments Consist of; the plant manager who is the organizational overall manager, the engineering manager, accounting manager, manufacturing manager, human resource manager, and the purchasing manager who coordinates each department and is accountable to the plant manager (Anderson 1988:56). People with related professions, acquaintances, expertise, and orientations have been grouped together in one department. This ensures efficiency in terms of their work as it enhances quality output. There is exemplary coordination between Managers and Customers; this ensures that customers’ interests are met appropriately and adequately (Kahtz & Kahnz 1978:89). Organizational System In Luthans (1986:72), due to the large size and diversity of the organization, Zara has departmentalized itself in terms of the services and products it offers in the market. For instance, there are in charge of hairstyle fashioning, dress fashioning, general beauty among others. This has helped in reducing the workload of a manager within the organization. Organizational Values There is a devoted employees relationship within Zara. The relationship with the employees is hierarchically extended throughout the organization; Zara has strong coordination and understanding between its staff and subordinates. This ensures that the subordinates or employees work towards attaining the objectives of the organization; they receive guidance, support, and other essential services from the upper staff (Koontz, O’Donnell & Weihrich 1980:123). In Robbins (1989: 45), the promotion of top managers is done within their various departments. Zara delegates task on a large scale to its departmental arms which then concentrate the work in their area of products and duties (Robbins& Coulter 1984:98). Organizational Powers According to Filley (1978:45), within organizations, the authority managers do have little work of imposing their authority on employees since these employees are experts in their duties. Hence, their responsibility is always to oversee the success and performance of these employees. The individual teams are the one who decides on how to divide the work amongst them and judge the span of work time. Organizational Cultures Each employee believes in his or her personality within the organization and would always want to improve the image of the organization. This is done by ensuring that they do the right thing always. This action has facilitated the quality of products and services offered by Zara thereby giving it more gain on the market shares (Davis
