Abstract
This paper examines organizational theory regarding in-groups and out-groups and how this theory is critical in today's business environment because of the emphasis on teams and team formation. The paper explains that in-groups and out-groups are important for organizational leaders to understand and comprehend at risk of allowing an organization to fall into disarray and inefficiency. The paper also discusses how the differences between these two types of groups within the organization are stark - one group can be characterized by its inclusion and its sense of accomplishment and trust while the other can be characterized by its marginality and its lack of inclusiveness in any decision-making processes. The paper also points out that the effect of these two types of groups on any given organization is almost always negative but sometimes their full impact is not noticed until long after they form. In conclusion, the paper shows that leaders and managers need to be aware of these groups and ensure that no employees are isolated or excluded from the requisite inclusion within the business and organizational processes of the organization itself.

From the Paper
"Often, membership in these groups is not necessarily related to task or task performance. While an individual completely botching a task might potentially land them in the out-group, generally these groups form based on inter-personal reasons and relationships with various other co-workers and with management (Harris 142). As previously mentioned, group formation is not necessarily a bad thing to happen in the context of an organization. The danger is that such groups, if not properly managed, can lead to ostracizing and isolating valuable employees and even fellow team members."

Abstract
This paper discusses the importance of improving decision-making within the context of organizations. It discusses businesses in both the public and the private sectors and the differences in creative decision-making between the two sectors. It looks at ways that the components of these two paradigms are somehow melded into a composite creative decision-making model that engenders the best of both solutions but results in an efficient, creative methodology with wide application for the small to medium enterprise (SME).

Conclusion

From the Paper
"TQM can provide even the SME with a broad framework within which to become more competitive and responsive to its particular marketplace. Without such a broad framework within which to implement the nexus for creative decision-making processes the SME can only implement change for creative input at the departmental or unit level but the organizational culture as a whole remains unchanged and unaffected. Creative decision-making processes are best introduced as part of the organizational culture itself where the belief in the change becomes an organizational value rather than just another page in the SME's employee handbook."

Abstract
This paper explains that, on the American continent, the NAFTA agreement between Canada, Mexico and the U.S.A. has been responsible largely for the liberalization of economies, privatization and deregulation, which have all impacted the workforce, particularly women. The author points out that globalization has brought about an unequal structure of the global economy in which corporations are creating labor segregation, paying the most minimum wages possible and providing the least amount of labor regulations, all of which cause social and economic marginalization of women. The paper relates that various trade agreements push countries to privatize public resources causing a shift away from welfare and social programs such as social insurance, health care, child-care and childcare subsidy. The author stresses that the new jobs created for the sole profit of the employers are usually lower-paid, part-time or contract flexible work having no benefits.

From the Paper
"One example of such harassment and discrimination is cited by Quintero-Ramirez, (2002). She describes how managers are often able to request a medical examination to show that a job applicant is not pregnant. Because of deregulation, the working conditions in these factories are often unsanitary and even dangerous, and inadequate or non-existing healthcare often exasperated the health impacts suffered by these women workers. These women work for minimum wages while foreign countries reap most of the benefits. The maquiladora sector is of particular importance because it has grown 89% in the period between 1995 and 2000 . The managers of these manufacturing plants often prefer to hire women because of the patriarchal beliefs that women are more docile and better suited for boring repetitive jobs. "

From the Paper
"The Sarbanes-Oxley Act (henceforth SOX) contains 11 titles, which address issues involving criminal penalties, independence of auditors, rulings and requirements of the Securities and Exchange Commission, among other known accounting elements. The most profound part of SOX is the fact that there is a board that acts as an oversight agency which regulates, inspects, and disciplines auditors in their role as external accountants for public companies."

The Effect of Labor Policies on Productivity, 2008.
A discussion on how US labor market polices have had a negative effect on employee productivity.
1,720 words (approx. 6.9 pages), 5 sources, MLA, $ 55.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
This paper examines how, for over 20 years, workers have been faced with the dilemma of lack of job security, which has led to decreased productivity. Another major change that has affected productivity is American corporations' shift of focus away from making employees feel secure and appreciated, or providing them with ample pension and health care benefits plus wage increases to outpace inflation. The paper points out that, instead, the new focus of American corporations emphasizes the fiduciary responsibility to the stockholder and maximizing profits. The paper also adds that advanced technology, requiring less people but more skilled workers, and government labor policies, which removed trade barriers making it easier for American companies to outsource labor and relocate to countries with low labor costs, have had an adverse effect on American worker productivity and the American middle class. The paper concludes that the corporate/business paradigm shift from employee to stockholder is the most significant factor leading to reduced employee productivity and the erosion of the American middle class.

From the Paper
"Lack of job security is not a problem new to 2007, or even 2000, but one that has been on the rise since 1972. American companies have downsized dramatically since the late 1970s.
"In the first downsizing wave, 12% of the out placed workers left the workforce completely, 17% remained unemployed after two years. Of those finding new employment, 31% took a wage reduction of 25% or more and 32% of worker's wages were reduced by one to twenty-five percent while only 37% found no wage loss. These figures translate to 63% of people finding replacement jobs that are inferior to what they held prior to being downsized."

Bakan and Steinbeck on Industrialization, 2008.
A discussion of industrialization in reference to Joel Bakan's "The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power" and John Steinbeck's "The Grapes of Wrath".

Abstract
This paper compares the advantages and disadvantages of industrialization, drawing its arguments primarily from Joel Bakan's "The Corporation: The Pathological Pursuit of Profit and Power" and John Steinbeck's "The Grapes of Wrath". The paper finds that Steinbeck and Bakan paint a depressing picture of a world where all humanity has been lost, as inhuman corporations take over the world. From a contrasting viewpoint, the paper points out that certain analysts claim the cost in human terms has not been too high. On the contrary, most people are better off than before, as wages have grown, not declined. In conclusion, the paper holds that the two viewpoints agree that industrialization has led to the rise of corporations and to an enormous increase in productivity. However, the paper agrees with the first viewpoint, which maintains that soulless, profit-obsessed corporations now run the earth, and that the ultimate cost will be disastrous to humanity and its habitat.

From the Paper
"Bakan thus provides the big picture, spelling out the worldwide costs of industrialization. In essence, he argues that our world is being destroyed by gluttonous corporations. Steinbeck shows us the human cost of this by giving us a much smaller picture - a close-up of small farmers in rural USA. Here we meet barefoot children whose children are being forced off the land their ancestors wrested from the indigenous people, and which has sustained their families ever since. The frightened children ask their mothers: "What are we going to do, Ma? Where are we going to go?" (Steinbeck 36) The implication is that these children will end up starving on the streets - so that a soulless, inhuman, monstrous corporate somewhere in the East can make profits."

Ethics and Energy Deregulation, 2008.
An analysis of whether the deregulation of the energy and in particular, the electricity sector can be completely ethical.

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
This paper discusses the ethical considerations associated with the deregulation of energy, focusing on the electricity sector in the United States. The paper examines the issue from the perspective of both proponents (advantages) and critics (disadvantages) in order to attempt to ascertain if energy deregulation can be an ethical course of action.

From the Paper
"How can we reconcile these positions? Democratic, local control of power production is certainly a noble, even ethically important, goal. But if deregulation only results in more corporate control of energy production with less public oversight, it is certainly not an ethical choice. Perhaps the most ethical and rational path would be to remove government's monopolistic control while retaining the public's capacity to oversee the energy market. If policies were put into place regulate the actions of especially the major energy producers while encouraging the development of local, alternative power generation, then it might be possible to achieve the ideals of the deregulation proponents while avoiding the dangers of corporate corruption."

Powerful International Organizations, 2008.

Abstract
This paper analyzes the negative political impact that large powerful organizations can have. It describes the cycle of corruption, oppression and turmoil that produces terrorism, which in turn generates reactionary policies in the United States which are detrimental to democracy. Specifically, the paper looks at the consequences of the political and economic alliance between powerful international organizations and conservative-controlled governments.

From the Paper
"The stark truth is that globalization is harmful to hundreds of millions of people around the world, and has produced destructive political blowback in the form of terrorism, dangerous instability and escalating violence in the Middle East, alarming restrictions on civil liberties in the United States, the outsourcing of millions of jobs in order to exploit cheap labor in Third World countries, and the degeneration of America's political system into an Orwellian system in which lies are peddled as the truth and the truth is degraded as lies.
"One of the biggest lies is that globalization benefits everyone. Monopoly capitalist dominance over the world's economy through globalization threatens to condemn undeveloped nations to permanent subservience and endless poverty. Under such conditions, it is hypocritical for the IMF to call for debt relief when the debts are conditioned on the very same economic policies that exacerbates indebtedness throughout the Third World.

From the Paper
"The Canadian pet food industry is strong as evidenced by the fact that Canada was the 12th country in the world pet food exports in 2004 (Food and Agricultural Organization, 2006). The Canadian dog food market has recently witnessed the growth of unique pet foods. (Bennett, 2007). The overall analysis of the market shows two new major lines of products as well as the popularization of special foods. The two new lines of dog food products include the food sauces and oral hygiene chewing treats. The food sauces are designed to improve the taste of dry food and make the same food taste differently on daily basis. They are developed in such a manner to complement the nutrition value of the dry meal. The oral hygiene treats are aimed at improving dog's dental care. Even though they do not replace regular teeth brushing, they are a great and easy to apply supplement. This product is manufactured by major dog food companies (see further below) as well as the specialized ones, like Virbac in the USA. The development of special foods is likely connected to the raising awareness of food quality in humans (Roberts, 2006). As Tarnowski (2006) sums up this trend: "'Natural', 'functional' and 'healthy are three key factors driving pets food sales in America today - a direct result of the 'humanization trend" (pg. 72). This not only increased the quality of dog food as well but also led to the development of food specially designed for, for example, overweight dogs, dogs with reduced activity, and those with stomach problems."

Abstract
This paper examines the organizational policies and leadership practices at United Parcel Services (UPS), one of the premier shipping companies in the world. The paper looks at the growth of the company and discusses the reasons for its success, particularly focuses on it positive leadership and management. The paper also discusses the value of the unique leadership training programs that UPS offers to its managers and employees.

From the Paper
"The end point is to connect UPS leaders with local communities and inspire a sense of commitment to those communities. UPS doesn't want its leaders detached or separated from the people and customers with which it does business. Rather, the point is to create new connections with people to improve the leadership provided by UPS managers. This all may sound a little hokey or unnecessary from a business perspective, but it is an important part of UPS's success over the last century. UPS is not just another corporation completely cut off from the needs of its customers and challenges local communities face. In fact, UPS is committed to helping improve local communities through efforts like the CIP. From a business practice perspective, this is useful because it boosts UPS's public image, creates leaders who have practical experience in helping people and solving problems, and provides valuable information to leaders about the kinds of services that would be appropriate in various locations through the UPS delivery system."

"Nypro is a leading global manufacturer of customized injection molded plastics with a concentration on primarily three market segments. These segments consist of consumer and industrial sales which constitutes approximately 32% of sales, healthcare products which amounts to approximately 46% of total sales, and communications and electronics which accounts for approximately 21% of total revenues (Voorheis, 1998, p.1). Nypro is a strong performing company with good revenues and a diverse customer base that allows it to avoid over-reliance on a single market segment. However, the data provided seems somewhat confused. The researchers make the comment that Nypro's revenues, in 1995, figured on a per customer average were in excess of $4m (Voorheis, 1998, p.2)."

Loanable Funds Theory
Liquidity Preference Theory
Risk Structure of Interest Rates
Bank Management Principles

From the Paper
"Economics has long relied on the concept of supply and demand in the free market as one of the fields most basic tenets and this is just as true for monetary theory. In terms of interest rates and interest rate determination, the loanable funds theory of interest states that the interest rates in the market, all other things being equal, are determined through the supply of funds in that market as well as the availability of funds for lending (Walter, 2004, p.89). However, within this loanable funds theory of interest there are several related factors that affect the interest rate specifically which must be accounted for. On such basic economic premise is that the supply of loanable funds is controlled by the amount of savings in the market and the average increases in overall deposits which affect the amount of loanable funds."

Abstract
This paper defines corporate social responsibility (CSR) as the fundamental duty that corporations have to act responsibly and ethically and in a manner that does not harm the environment. The paper continues that CSR also requires corporations to ensure all individuals directly or indirectly affected by its transactions are treated with respect and to conform to the letter and the spirit of the law. The author indicates that the priority measurement is the public and private records regarding the corporation's past behavior in the marketplace, such as employee abuses, environmental damage and legal difficulties, using a frequency metric over a period of time to establish a baseline for future measures of CSR behavior. The paper concludes that RIM does not do enough in its CSR related activities and should adopt programs to assist Canada's large immigrant population with integration into the broader social fabric of the Canadian population.

"RIM maintains its CSR profile in several ways. The first example of how RIM adheres to a CSR imperative is that it has a publicly published and viewable code of ethics which requires that all its employees conform not only to all legal and regulatory mandates but that they also behave ethically appropriate as well. The code of ethics for the company originates directly from the office of the co-CEO, Jim Balsillie. Another example of RIM's compliance with CSR mandates is its basic factors that it requires its outsourcing partners to meet in order to maintain their manufacturing contracts with RIM."

Collaborative Job Outsourcing, 2008.
This paper analyzes the positive and negative aspects of collaborative job outsourcing for developmental projects.
1,240 words (approx. 5.0 pages), 7 sources, APA, $ 42.95
» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
In this article the writer analyzes a collaborative perspective on developmental projects that are normatively associated with outsourcing jobs. The writer notes that by understanding the positive aspects of corporate structural development through job outsourcing, one can realize the greater profits gained by having accesses to low wage job markets on the global scale. However, the writer points out that the lack of stability in third world countries that support these types of job markets are often problematic for American corporate expenses for these developmental operations. In essence, the writer maintains that by analyzing the overall scope of global issues with job outsourcing, developmental projects can be viewed through a positive and negative set of arguments detailing the complexity of collaborative job markets.

From the Paper
"In many ways, the American economy and the free trade aspects of job outsourcing play a large part in how large corporations can make a great deal of money on exportable jobs in the technology sectors. The differing aspects of the global market often produce lower wages, which American companies can utilize to their interest. While the job values for American citizens are much higher, which allows companies to seek these lower wages in third world counties or within the sector of the world where America has influence. In essence, these are the major aspects of the global market, which in turn, affect how job outsourcing has become a modern trend in gaining higher profits for companies that are seeking lower wage job markets overseas to counter the high cost of native worker jobs in America and Canada."

"Gender Differences in Pay", 2008.

» Click here to show/hide summary

Abstract
The paper examines the article, "Gender Differences in Pay" by F. Blau and L. Kahn where the authors discuss the differences in pay between men and women, their different occupations and discrimination. The paper looks at the valid reasons offered for the wage gap but points out that the article only briefly discusses the problem of discrimination. The paper believes that more information about discrimination and women should be discussed in any article about the wage gap between men and women.

From the Paper
"The wages women receive have risen since the 1970's to the present time. During the 1970's and earlier, people believed women should be paid less than men. Even the Bible states that the wages women should receive is 30 shekels of silver with men receiving 50 shekels (Kahn & Blau, 2000, p. 78). Different reasons for giving men higher wages were argued by the employers and women accepted the difference in pay. However, the wages women received began to increase during the 1980's and have continued to climb in the 1990's. Several problems exist as to why women fail to receive the same wage as men as they get older. Men receive higher wages in their 30's because women often quit their jobs due to having children and only continue to work when their children get older. Men usually stay on the job without taking any time off."

Abstract
This paper explains that, on the whole, Japanese automakers have the edge over their European counterparts. The author points out that the primary reasons are that Japanese cars are typically considered to be safer and much more reliable than European cars, which are paramount criteria when purchasing a car. The paper relates that Japanese cars can be quite affordable in terms of start-up fees and insurance costs. The author stresses that the Japanese cars, depending on the brand, also score high in performance and environmental friendliness. The paper concludes that Japanese subcompact cars are typically cheap, reliable, comfortable, environmentally friendly and highly fuel efficient.

From the Paper
"Japanese car makers also agreed to the same CO2 emission decrease as specified by the European Union-Kyoto Protocol arrangement and, like the European cars, are not in-line to reach their target. Japanese brands performed poorly across the board under the T&E investigation. Three of the worst performing cars out of tested popular brands were Japanese: the Nissan, Suzuki and the Mazda (only 20%, 22% and 27% of the CO2 emission reduction target achieved, respectively). Arguably, the biggest Japanese brand name, Toyota, poorly scored seventh on the survey, reaching 76% of the target. However, other research shows that Japanese cars may be "greener" than the T&E research indicates."
