Does working in teams make people less receptive to outside input? How can social comparisons undermine trust in working relationships? How do the training and technical knowledge entrepreneurs take from previous employers impact the success of their new ventures? Wharton professor Jennifer Mueller and lecturer Julia Minson, and professors Maurice Schweitzer and Evan Rawley, respectively, examine these issues, and what they mean for business, in recent research papers.

In order to achieve M1, I must explain how the management of human, physical and technological resources can improve the performance of a selected organisation. The organisation that I have chosen is Apple Inc. Human Human Resources are responsible for employees of a business.

They could also increase their performance by giving their staff a pay rise, which would help make a better working environment and in turn they would work hard. Also if human resources employ the right people, who have the right amount of experience and qualifications then they could help Apple because the people they employ would be able to contribute straight away, which would save Apple time and money in training them.
Data on Fixed Line vs. Cellular Debate Good news is improved data communications lead to faster transfer of information within businesses and between partners and customers. For example, sales people can remotely check stock levels and prices whilst on sales calls. Because wireless technology enables the user to communicate while on the move, you are rarely out of touch - you don't need extra cables or adaptors to access office networks. Office-based wireless workers can be networked without sitting at dedicated computers, and can continue to do productive work while away from the office. This can lead to new styles of working, such as home working or direct access to corporate data while on customer sites.
Unit 320 Outcome 1 Understand the principles of supporting individuals to live at home 1) Describe how being supported to live at home can benefit an individual Supporting a customer to live at home can benefit them as it gives them more independence and choice, being able to choose what they want to eat and to have support to go out and shop for their own food helps them to feel a greater sense of normality rather than being in a home where they don’t have much choice. It will benefit the customer as they will feel that they have more control over their daily routine for example what time they would like to get up or go to bed. Customers also feel happier as they are surrounded with objects that hold memories for them even the house or street might hold a significant memory that they would like to hold onto. If they weren’t in the comfort of their own home it may make them feel lonely and isolated and less confident, this could lead them to becoming withdrawn and depressed. 2) Compare the roles of people and agencies who may be needed to support an individual to live at home There are many different services that are used to help an individual stay at home.
• Describe how being supported to live at home can benefit an individual. (3022 1.1) Living at home can benefit an individual as it helps to promote independence. Promoting independence is important as it means that they are more willing to help themselves if they are able to. Also if they are able to become more independent, they are more likely to become more confident, which means they may be able to do more things for themselves, therefore making them more independent, which therefore benefits the individual as they are in a positive atmosphere. Another reason why living at home can benefit an individual is that they may have more time spent with loved ones and are more likely to get visits from friends and family.

Employees no longer need to be physically with their clients and co-workers; instead they can communicate effectively at home, at a distant office, across the world, and even in their car or on an airplane. Although these new technologies offer a wide variety of services and opportunities, they seem united by a single factor: increased efficiency and productivity. Indeed, companies have been quick to adopt many of these technologies, and tout significant improvements in business performance. However, as the physical office loses importance and employees are encouraged to telecommute from their location of choice; these physically isolated workers will inevitably suffer a loss of face-to-face interpersonal skills and a deterioration of relationships in the workplace.” (cse.stanford.edu) This is an example of what happened at my job, at the Raleigh Military Entrance Processing Station.
