Cultural Issues That Can Be Anticipated When an American Manager Plans to Negotiate with An Arab Manager Introduction Cultural differences are a very vital factor when negotiating between different nations, and therefore, managers need to have a good understanding of this for a successful negotiation. Managers and management scholars have been battling with cultural disputes principally in the capacity of business negotiations (Trompenaars, 1997). Different business managements and big world companies respond to the issue of cultural differences in different manners helping to explain how firms differ and also their performance difference. Therefore, managers are forced to have a good understanding of culture to cooperate harmoniously with their counterparts in negotiations so that they may come into a mutual agreement. Therefore, in this paper, we are going to look at how racial dissimilarities may upset business happenstances using a scenario of an American manager negotiating with an Arab counterpart centered on diverse extents of culture. Managers should be aware of this and the possible problems that may arise so as to have a vivid idea of what will happen. Appreciating the…
Dr Warburg I believe that Dr Warburg needed to, first of all, embrace the process as it was meant to iron out any issue and enable the process to be as smooth as possible. The things Dr Warburg felt that they are not done in the right manner, she could have explained herself, especially on the teaching style of some of the teachers. That is the teaching is supposed to have explicit instruction and expectations. Depending on the level of education, Dr Warburg should have understood this and allow the teachers to carry out their work. In those occasions, when she was not happy, she should have communicated through the right channel rather than confronting the teachers. The major challenge Dr Warburg faced was that the style of teaching was not she expected since clear and vivid instruction would have helped her son understood more. The other challenge was communication since she was unable to have a better avenue to communicate with the teachers, and she resulted in a confrontation.
Developing a Community Risk Reduction (CRR) Plan Introduction The background information and demographics show that the Buckeye community is vulnerable to Tornados. In the last 75 years, 20 tornados occurred at the place located at the West of Phoenix, Arizona. In the last five years, more tornados have been witnessed (United States Census Bureau, 2020).

Adolescent Idealism, Criticism, Personal Fable and Imaginary Audience The transition from childhood to adulthood reflects adolescence (Tanner & Arnett, 2016). It is a time of physical, social, and emotional changes. Young people have a rather self-centered idealism. We say we are absolutely grown men, so they take no guidance from adults. Young people prefer to expect the best result in all circumstances. On the contrary, it is not always possible to obtain better outcomes. Moreover, teenagers are really critical. You still want someone or someone to be criticized, but you don’t want to be criticized. They are often irritated and upset if criticism, particularly by adults, is addressed to them (Tanner & Arnett, 2016). Personal fables illustrate how young people feel that what happens to them is special, even though nobody else is in a position to experience the same (Tanner & Arnett, 2016). This assumption explains why the acts of young people may have profound consequences for their lives. Another teenage distortion is the imagination of the viewer. Teenagers prefer to assume that people concentrate and monitor what they…

Do You Agree with this Popular Nineteenth-Century View? There are several misconceptions and misinterpretations on the civilization of sub-Saharan Africans. A lot of people cannot tell the difference between civilization and colonization. Some historians referred to Africans as backward, savage and uncivilized in the nineteenth century. The notion was false because, at this time, Egypt was well ahead in terms of civilization. The Europeans had a mentality that was instilled by the historians. Therefore, they thought of sub-Saharan Africa as uncivilized until they arrived. The paper examines some of the evidence that points out the false nature of the European scholars and disagrees that sub-Saharan Africa was uncivilized until the arrival of the Europeans. In the nineteenth century, it was known that Africans built monuments and kingdoms that could match up to the Monarchy of the Europeans. Scholars misrepresented this presentation of Africa because of their racial prejudice leading to distortion of the sub-Saharan African facts of history. They did this to uphold their belief that Africa was civilized upon their arrival. For instance, Meroe kingdom, which began around 1000…

Working toward a Claim Currently, I am a scholar at Butler Community College and studying to become a professional customer service representative. I am interested in this career because I believe consumers are the most crucial factor in any form of organization; as a result, they deserve a full-time and round-the-clock service that continually interacts with them to communicate vital information or address their grievances. A professional customer service representative is essential to the society since they ensure that the organization is always in touch with the consumers from the community at large; thereby identifying their preferences, complaints and addressing them accordingly. Despite that, one significant challenge facing this profession is the rapid development and implementation of automated customer response services. And it means that the traditional function of customer service representatives will be replaceable by software, computers, and artificial intelligence automated-technology; thereby leading to unemployment. Today, business enterprises compete on consumer experience (Britt 20). As a result, professional customer service is essential for all enterprises since it affects the bottom line and significantly influences the public eye perspective on…
