There is always an opportunity to enhance the way organizations handle or prevent issues from coming to the surface. Issues develop on an everyday basis, but the actions taken to resolve issues or how organizations chooses to maintain operations despite of existing issues is what keeps an organization on the right track.

Time, cost and how it will reflect on the employees are equally important and should be used as guiding principles to ensure the most appropriate actions are enforced.
The office manager takes the appropriate action needed. When the office manager is no longer able to solve the problem, it is then forwarded to the senior manager for further review.

Usually company issues are seldom reviewed by the senior manager because his job mostly consists of the company finances, pay raises, bonuses, and promoting his business.

What she says is absolutely true, we can criticize about consumerism all we want but we still fall victim to it. Many people have many
