Management 303 Course Project 1 LivWell Business Analysis Management Theories and Practices 303 Course Project In this course project I was given a couple of options to choose from; either analyze a prev ious business I have worked for, choose from a list provided or use my current emp loyer. Since my current job is quite interesting, I will go ahead and do an analysis of my current employer. LivWell, the largest premiere medical and recreational marijuana distributor in the world, wa s established in 2010. LivWell was purchased a s a fail ing small marijuana business and by 2012 LivWell had opened up 5 locations only attributing to the medical marijuana patien ts, at the time there was only a handful of other marijuana businesses with multiple locations. With 9 locations all over the state o f Colorado, Li vWell became the leader of marijuana sales and production . Naturally as recreational marijuana had es t ablished itself in Colorado in 2014 LivWell increased profits from not only from the medical market but the recreational market. I joined the LivWell team in 2013 on the storefront and have worked my way through the company finally settling in as a shift manager within one of their now 11 locations. Being with LivWell for just about a year and a half I feel that I have a pretty good feel for how our company works and can establish an acceptable business analysis on the company with some help from some other employees. I have great respect for LivWell and do plan on

The city council should vote on affordable housing, but not support Sun Cal, a real estate developer, to provide solely residential housing across the street from Disney land because the organization would not be able to further expand nor would the development complement the resort’s vision (Lawrence & Weber, 2014). Furthermore, the city council should consider working in favor of Disney considering the organization’s successful history with Anaheim. For instance, Disney contributed $545,000,000 of bond funds for neighborhood upgrades, but a majority went to infrastructure improvements, landscape, and transportation (Weinberg, 2007). Disney also occupies five percent of land in Anaheim, while providing fifty percent of the revenue from taxes, to the City; and even creating public services with the police and fire department; thus, creating incredible number of jobs (Weinberg, 2007); hence, Orange County and Anaheim need to recognize the affordable housing issue

One of the most prominent themes in the novel is the idea of sin. This topic is best represented by the main character of the story, Hester herself. Her story, one of guilt and redemption, pain and punishment, is similar to the biblical account of the Fall of Adam and Eve, with Hester representing Eve and Dimmesdale, the town clergyman, representing Adam. Overall, the theme of sin is perfectly

Peer Review Feedback to Stefan Kemptner’s summary of the article “The ‘Internet of Things’ thing”, written by Kevin Ashton The introduction is well accomplished, since it sums up the author’s overall statement very well and makes the reader curious about the following text.

“They love ‘their’ company, they love their job, and they are used to getting their own way” [in reference to founder-CEO’s] (Heller, 2008).

The original founders maintain a tight grip on many of the company decisions.
