Technology is a leading role in effective business practices. As technology changes so rapidly, managers must have the capability to adapt to the change and make the necessary decision to maintain success. My friends shop has to constantly keep up to date with the latest changes in the automotive industry. They must do this in order to stay ahead of their competitors and be able to effectively diagnose and repair vehicles in a timely fashion. Innovations in the automotive industry also drive customers to bring their vehicles in to be worked on by automotive shops rather than working on them themselves.
Fords benefits from unionization because the union contracts can be negotiated and any work issues can be resolved, such as workplace safety, wages, and benefits. As a unionized company, the management at Ford will also benefit from UAW to keep its workers online to avoid low productivities. Another benefit of Ford Motors as unionized company is employees work satisfaction because of high wages, more fair practices, and guaranteed employments that leads to less company turnover. With the recent economic downturn many American businesses suffered losses, but with the help of the UAW Ford could overcome the economic barriers. In 2011 Ford and UAW agreed on a new contract approving profit sharing and signing bonuses in lieu of annual pay raises in setting the wages and benefits for 112,000 workers.
Competitive sports: the most universal activity throughout the world, and possibly the universe. All sports have their loyal fans, who stick with them through the good seasons and the bad, the trophy-raising dominating seasons and the worst in the division seasons. However, obviously not every team can win their leagues championship every year, and mostly many teams go years upon years without winning some hardware. Years ago, teams with the best records that won championships typically generated the most income and revenue and would draft and buy the best players, therefore creating dynasties and would give other teams no chance of winning. In the recent years professional sports leagues have fixed this problem by creating what is known as
Turnover and competition are pushing organizations to focus on ways to keep top-quality employees satisfied and motivated (Hellriegel & Slocum, 2011, p. 132).

When he started his Ford Motor company he was always looking out for his customers and his employees. When he realized that too much time was being spent trying to create one car at a time, he came up with the idea of using the assembly line method or mass production. By using this method it greatly cut the cost of production per vehicle so instead of keeping prices high, it actually lowered them. He also raised the pay of his workers. He is one of the big reasons that the United States has a middle working class because of his great generosity for his workers.

Americans must work on listening to others and avoid being self absorbed, by achieving this we will have a country that is open to growth and open to the ideas of
