Retention Assignment Example

What do you think is the most demotivating part of Harper’s job?

I think the most demotivating part of Harper’s job is the feeling of being under appreciated and unsupported in her role. There are a lack of key factors such as support, communicating well, and acknowledgment that can have a major impact on an employee’s motivation and job satisfaction. Ever since Jose left, Harper was to take on more work and she was getting stressed out. Her new boss appears less available and less aware of the challenges she faces. Doing all that work made Harper not have enough time to enjoy her personal life. If I was in her shoe, I would’ve talk to the new owner David and ask him I am doing way too much work and he isn’t doing anything about it. No one wants a boss that dose not appreciate them.

If you were an HR manager meeting with Harper’s supervisor, David, what advice would you give to help them re-engage Harper?

If I was an HR manager meeting with Harper’s supervisor, David, I would ask David to communicate with Harper. I would also tell him that regular one on one meetings can give Harper an opportunity to talk about her concerns and her workload issues. I would also discuss on the importance of helping Harper have a better work/life balance, discuss the tasks that Harper has to do, and by addressing these aspects, David can work with Harper and improve her job satisfaction and create a better relationship between the two.

What would be the downside of losing Harper as an employee?

The downside of losing Harper as an employee could have numerous negative outcomes. There would be impact of team morale, there would be more workload for other employees, and finding a replacement for Harper would be hard. The only solution in not losing Harper is if David really talks to her on a one-on-one meeting.

Marketing Assignment Example

When I was little, I always thought that Nike was a very expensive sportswear brand. I thought there product was for athletes and that I shouldn’t wear it for my casual lifestyle. But as I grew older, and was playing soccer, I started to like Nike a lot. I have always liked Nike’s marketing campaigns. They are very creative and inspiring, as they would always feature famous athletes such as LeBron James and Cristiano Ronaldo. I remember seeing the most famous ad from nike that is called “Just Do It” The ad was loved by many people and also really motivated by people to overcome challenges and achieve their goals. Nike has also done a great job of marketing their product through social media and having influencer partnerships. They just know how well to advertise their product and try to hype up there product. I have alway been a loyal customer to Nike for a few years now and obviously since I play soccer and my idol is Cristiano Ronaldo a lot, I like Nike. Nike is a brand that does not want their customers to give up and I love the quality of their product as well. I would have never in my life buy Nike products if I have never seen the cool and amazing marketing campaigns. Their ads have also really made me be part of their brand since a lot of professional athletes were in their ads promoting product. I believe Nike is one of the key reasons why they are such a successful business. Their marketing game will always be on top!Cristiano Ronaldo Just Tweeted Nike's New Ad Featuring Himself, And It Hilariously Backfires | Bored Panda

The Founder Assignment Example

1.The difference between Ray Kroc and the brothers was that Ray Kroc had a bigger plan and had a much larger vision than the brothers. Kroc knew that he could grow McDonald’s globally and make it a big brand. As for the brothers, they only saw McDonald’s as a small business. Ray Kroc also knew that he was going to take risks and work long hours so he can grow the business. The brothers did not think of that.

2. I don’t think the brothers did the right thing to sell McDonald’s to Ray Kroc because the brothers could’ve honestly made the business grow themselves and make McDonald’s available worldwide. Ray Kroc did give the brothers a good deal because Kroc basically told the brothers that he was the best person to take charge of McDonald’s and that he would lead it to success.

3. The way the local franchise made money was by selling McDonald’s menu items. Costumers pays these items and the money goes to the franchise.

4. Kroc made money by franchises fees which was made by selling franchises to individuals who wanted to open a McDonald’s. Kroc also made money by royalties, and even real estate income.

5.This film did not change my view on McDonalds. I honestly just hate the fact that the brothers sold the McDonalds business to Ray Kroc. They could’ve made McDonald a big business but at the end, Ray Kroc was the one that made more profit and he took the risk to grow McDonalds globally.  Very smart from him.

Ethics Assignment Example

One of the biggest and most well-known brands of sporting clothing and equipment is Nike. I always love to shop at Nike to buy either Nike soccer shoes, Nike hoodies, Nike dunks and etc. The Nike business has a long history of ethical corporation and it’s social responsibility. Nike’s social responsibility are focus on three areas: People, Planet, and Community. Nike is serious to creating a more diverse and equal workplace and making sure that all of its workers are treated properly. The Business also promotes the health and happiness of its workers. Nike has also promote a lot of famous people such as Cristiano Ronaldo and Lebron James. They created campaign.

Nike is also dedicated to saving the environment and reducing its impact. The corporation has established objectives to cut back on waste productions and green house gas emissions. Nike was also making investments in sustainable materials and renewable energy.

Nike pays attention to supporting the communities where it does business. The business encourages its staff to donate their time and talents and to support a number of social and environmental issues.

Overall, Nike aims to promote a more equal and diverse work environment, supporting ethical labor standards throughout its supply chain, and reducing its environmental effect. Nike can maintain its role as a leader in this field by promoting a change in public policy, being more open with customers, and continuing a fund environmental products.
