emphasizes on the importance of knowing your enemy and knowing them well and exploit their weaknesses and avoid his strengths. In Strategy, this holds a lot of weight because knowing the competitors and the market in order to brand yourself accordingly. Firstly, you have to see if there is a market for the service you want to provide and then see if your competitors are not doing that
Decision-Making Generating potential solutions, evaluating the solutions, deciding, checking the decisions and communicating and implementing the decisions were the six areas covered during the quiz (Mind Tools, 2014). Decisions made at the strategic, routine, project/non-routine, or operational levels have different impacts (CSU-Global, 2014) and consequences if not managed properly. This paper will address each of the six areas evaluated, discuss the four levels that decisions are made and show
When it comes to making a decision, people tend to go through a series of questions before leading to what they believe is the best choice. We tend to turn the opposite way when it comes to doing something that is out of our comfort zone. When being faced with the choice of taking one that is not the majority recommendation, we turn our back to avoid it. In the Road Not Taken, Robert Frost conveys the importance of taking into consideration all the possibilities and outcomes as well as staying open

Quantitative thinking is of importance for it represents the
is a reason that organizational behaviour is such an important field of study, as it helps us to make sense of the world around us, not just what goes on inside organizations. (McShane & Steen, p.3). Organizational behaviour theories help us to re-evaluate ourselves within our distinct roles, which in turn helps us better understand our self-concept and what values are most significant in our lives. After completing the “Winter Survival Exercise”, it is evident as to why organizations value groups
area of study that deals with concepts of what is regarded to as wrong or right (Brown, Harrison & Trevino, 2005). This paper will focus on how I think through and determine what is wrong and right in my daily life. It will also give examples of ethical behaviors and how cultural heritage has shaped my values. Further, it will describe the nature of four ethical behaviors I have. In addition, it will identify a noble hero that has served as my role model as well as their characteristics. It will further
Communication and Decision Making The impact of communication on the decision-making process is an important topic for discussion in human service organizations. According to Jagg, “Decisions may be made by a single leader, a committee or a large group of people, depending on the nature of an organization” (2016). Decisions range from very little importance to very high importance with choices that can affect the organization and those who work in it. When communication is done on an active level
While the importance of ethics and ethical behaviors is not a new facet of my professional life, as I emerge into the field of Industrial and Organizational Psychology the weight of ethical responsibility has heightened. According to Lefkowitz (2005), ethics are moral principles that govern a person 's or group 's behavior. Hence, after reviewing the American Psychological Ethical Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct (2010) and the role ethics play in the field of I/O Psychology I this
would give students and peers to know what they actually think about morality. Educating students about personal ethics would also be helpful to them in the future. Personal ethics will teach students to do what they believe is right. At times, students may face situations where it is not easy to make a decision, but if they have knowledge and know what personal ethics is, then it will help them in making better decisions. Also, the course should not stay behind when it comes to compliance and ethics
choice. Well what a curious statement for me to make when that seems to be the totalitarian objective that we as individuals seek throughout our childhood and well into our adult lives; “the freedom of choice”. Then why does that statement seem to ring so true and prevalent in our society today? A culture where teachers and professors are now moving into the roles of “facilitators” where students are encouraged to get to answers to fundamental questions through discussions and finally making their
