According to James Wilson’s Book Bureaucracy (pg. 165), “a craft organization consists of operators whose activities are hard to observe but whose outcomes are relatively easy to evaluate.” The reason I felt this way is because during my interview with Lori Tate, she stated that when an individual come in to be interviewed it is very private. Comments between the worker and the interviewee stay with the case worker and the client and the information is not privileged to anyone else not even the supervisor. The only time a supervisor would be entitled to the information during the interview is if there is a situation that the case worker cannot handle. It is very hard to observe something like this, but in the grand scheme of things the outcomes of the situation can be evaluated.
A sole proprietorship is an unincorporated business owned by one person. The owner of a sole proprietorship is known as a sole proprietor. Sole proprietorship is easier and less expensive to start than corporations. It can be started without anything more formal than a decision or a handshake and you can conduct business under your own name or under a trade name. In this example, Owen will be the only owner and since he wants to have employees under this business form he is allowed to hire employees whereas if he was thinking of an S- Corporation he could not have any employees.
Generally, the authoritarian leadership style is considered to be the more traditional type. In the past most businesses operated under the assumption that there were not effective reasons to discuss decisions with staff before making significant changes. This rather militant style of operating businesses can be visualized as a top-down approach; decisions come from above and trickle to those below. This is mostly effective, but leaves the people on the bottom, oftentimes the ones actually doing the labor, with no voice about how to perform their daily work activities. Over time management concepts have evolved into modern techniques that rely more on listening to and understanding the needs of employees as more businesses realize how much more productive employees can be when they have some control in their team or work environment.
The American Experience of an Indentured Servant Richard Frethorne’s letters to his parents in 1623 presents us with an abrupt image of what life as an indentured servant was like in the New World near the Virginia colonization. Frethorne’s letters are filled with vivid descriptions of his discomfort and hardships. Malnutrition, disease, threats of violence, brutal labor, isolation, and death are all common elements of Richard Frethorne’s letters and his life as an indentured servant. Most owners of indentured servants made their servants work as much as possible while spending as little as possible on the servants’ upkeep and contentment. Frethorne’s time as a servant was so brutal that he believed he would have been better off living life as a crippled beggar in his hometown of England rather than being a servant in the New World (Lauter 289).
In relation to other companies, her company is a small one and therefore does not have specific contract administrators. The people in the company’s ‘home office’ all do multiple jobs and hold multiple job responsibilities and their primary focus is not the contracts that are basically kept similar for everything. In the case of Othello’s company developing a contract administration plan has taken his company to the next level. The last course he took was human capital management and ironically this was the major issue his company was dealing with. Many of the employees at the company are independent contractors who have their own companies.
In some way, these rights have become values of the American people, but these values are not practiced as intended. This type of hypocrisy is not too complex to approach from a sociological point of view because it is more blatant than realized. Egalitarianism is hypocrisy in itself. By definition, egalitarianism is all citizens are created equal, no one is above the next citizen, and all privileges are the same. The contrast in this is something that is seen on a daily basis.
There was a lack of proper supply -chain command. Unlike earlier, when DynaCorp was smaller, the manufacturing and engineering teams worked in symphony and harmony with each other. Now due to offices being separated across geographies there is a lack of communication between these teams. Another aspect is that new ideas were not reflected anywhere. This is due to the many layers of the organization.
However, The General History includes much information on the terrible living conditions and bad farming/planting of the colony formed by the group of settlers that Captain John Smith was within. For some reason, the entry of Christopher Columbus contains no information about a settlement of any sort, almost as if he and his crew stayed in the New World for only one day. From this point, both entries seem to be of equal reliability due to the equal lack of common information. When reading further into The General History, Captain John Smith writes about how his first encounter with live Natives in the New World was while he was on an expedition with two
“The achievement of desire” is Richard Rodriguez’s autobiography that is a typical paradigm of “Banking concept of education” and it clearly illustrates the oppression in teaching and learning. Richard grows up in a working-class family where he does not receive any basic education until going to school. It is like a totally new world for him as he gets to learn academically and to have a base step of knowledgeable pursuit. For his whole life, he is eager to learn. But as going deeper into education system, he becomes far and far away from his family and his Mexican heritage.
Crevecoeur's Rhetorical Devices in Letters from an American Farmer In the book, Letters to an American Farmer by Jean De Crevecoeur, the writer attempts to explain his personal take on the society in which he's observed. Crevecoeur explains how a place with no food or warmth cannot be someone's home. To describe this, he uses rhetorical sentences as well as syntax and diction. However, more than those, he writes all of his work with figurative language that flows so intelligently you hardly notice it. All in all, his devices and language make the book easy to understand, read, and agree with.
