They needed the support of the manufacturing company to have the town survive. Our Government needs to be more involved with helping the American businesses by using trade agreements and import quotas similar to the ones that Ronald Regan imposed. Regan imposed temporary quotas on some Japanese goods, trying to give American manufactures the time to compete with the reliability and efficiency of the cars arriving from Japan. However, the plan did not work as Regan had hoped it would. The Japanese opened factories in the United States.
This would also affect the decisions an individual makes regarding product selection. A commercial that is attractive to an American housewife may not be attractive to a Japanese housewife. A few of the differences in American and Japanese culture are importance of hierarchy, group harmony, using certain numbers in advertising and language barriers. Cross Cultural Issues Hierarchy is highly respected in Japan personally and professionally, yet in America hierarchy exists but is not held to as high of standards or tradition. This is so engrained in the Japanese Culture that children even refer to their senior and junior classmates with specific names.
Therefore in my opinion Japan has the best chance. 2. Based on your information about comparative and absolute advantage, explain which country the United States would benefit from trading with the most and why. I think that Japan benefits the United States from trading because Japan has a strong work ethic, mastery of high technology, while Haiti is still trying to get back on their feet from the earthquake, at this moment I don’t think they can benefit the United States in any way. 3.
The strengths of this company is that 82% want the shop to be open longer, that proves the customers enjoy the service that is being supplied. The quantity of customers is strength of the business. However there is a weakness of the company, 65% said the staff was not friendly, this is a weakness because customer service affects customer loyalty, customers expect the staff to be very respectful, when staff are
Generally, exceptional or acceptable workforce quality is referring to how exceptional is the employees work and is their work behavior acceptable. Mueller, mentions in the text, “best and the brightest” which he is referring to the talent pool that the company is selecting from. The text also mentions that the acceptable strategy means the pursuit of a less high-powered workforce (31). Translated this means that they are not going to search for a highly educated person if production only requires those who are physically fit and capable of producing quality products quickly. Active or passive diversity is referring to the demographics of the area for which the labor is needed.
For a company to retain talent it must offer more incentives for the employees than that of its competitors. Your company encourages the decisions and ideas of the employees but more programs could be put in place to help retain employees. Implementing a program that offers rewards for time and cost savings not only benefits the employee but also the company by projecting a positive image of employee worth to the company. Keeping the companies hiring practice on the national level is required for all employees that work in the retail stores but if there is a need for technology or manufacturing of a particular product I would recommend global labor. The ability to tap into the global labor market will make the company more competitive by being able to offer competitive prices on products due to lower overhead cost associated with the offset in the labor cost.
The importance of this is seen on page 234, when K observes Doc, and presumably says to Doc: “'You are a Korean' (234).” Even though he does indeed speaks the language, he replies by telling her that he was born and raised in Japan, and therefore he is Japanese despite the language he grew up learning. The fact that he was adamant about receiving a young Japanese girl to start his own family makes it obvious he is trying to bring the figure of K back into his life. It is the guilt that he feels for failing K that provokes him to give Sunny the stable life he knew he was more than able to provide for her; the kind of life he knew he would be able to provide for K if she had lived. Doc names his medical supply store after his daughter Sunny, to remind himself of who he was when he first met K: a medic. Sunny seems to be a direct parallel of K for Doc.
Along with specific recommendations on how to make amends, the commission will address a larger, more important issue: making sure that due process is not stampeded again. Exclusion from the law causes deep and lasting personal harm. Many of the Japanese-American internees were able to speak of their pain and bitterness only at the prompting of their children, who were raised during the decades when the civil rights movements vastly enlarged our understanding of democracy. Poignantly, Dr. Oda explained why it had taken so long: "I did not want my children to feel the burden of shame and feelings of rejection by their fellow Americans. I wanted them to feel that in spite of what was done to us, this was still the best place in the world to
One of the books that conveyed the hardships and their losses in a very touching way was “Farewell to Manzanar”. Some of the themes out of this book except hardships was the struggle for the Japanese people to survive in the United States with the Americans saying “a Jap is always a Jap”(Farewell to Manzanar) and “Jap go back to where you came from”(Farewell to Manzanar). In most of the novels the characters try to pursue the American Dream and that of course is money but in Farewell to Manzanar their dream was just to get their freedom back because they had done nothing wrong and they just wanted a better future for their kids and wanted a normal life and that’s why they were interned for wanting a normal
In addition, as Japan is a developed country, the buildings were more strong and the services were more appropriate to treat people. Another reason is that in Japan earthquakes are very frecuent, so people are
