Childhood Experiences That Shape Adulthood Childhood experiences have been instrumental in shaping the adult I am today in the sense that they gave me lessons that have proved crucial in my adulthood. One such experience was lack of self -control. My colleagues in my childhood used to refer me the bullfighter. Any child who would mess me up would be assured of a blow or two, thanks to the fact that I had a huge that would scare everybody. Therefore, one would attempt to exchange a fight. Their defense was only reporting me to the teachers when in school or to my parents whenever I staged war away from school. I must say I used to get punishment almost on a daily basis My colleagues decided to stage a revenge fight against me behind my back. I had no single friend who could inform me of what had been planned against me. One evening as we played near our homestead, a group of boys confronted me.

Factors Involved in the Change Process within an Organization In today’s business world, change has become increasingly inevitable for the success of any organization. Typically, times of organizational change process should always serve to empower and reward individuals in organization rather than make them defensive and insecure (Susan M. Heathfield). In this regard, many field studies have been carried out to identify the four core factors involved in the change process, namely; Proactive Change- proactive changes involves having certain forces in the organization attempt to make alterations in form of implementation to the work before introducing the change in a planned manner. Organizations that use proactive approach to change tend to capitalize on a potential future opportunity or are avoiding a possible future risk. External Influences –organizations tend to react to some of external influences that cause change in different ways. For instance, stiff competitions from close competitors in certain line of production or commodity may subject the company to reorganize itself in terms of production. Likewise, technological advances as an external factor may cause the business to adopt the…

Business Management Course Work Action Research as Method: Reflections from a Program for Developing Methods and Competence In the article titled Action Research as Method: Reflections from a Program for Developing Methods and Competence, Jan Irgens Karlsen reflects on an emerging research model whereby researchers participate in implementing the actions they recommend in their research. Jan explains that this research model has been tested in many different fields and has proven to be effective. He however advises researchers to be cautious when using it. In the first part of the article, Jan explains how this approach is different from the conventional approaches to research. He points out that the person conducting research does not only study a problem and make recommendations, but also is involved in the process of implementing his recommendations. Moreover, the people affected by the problem being investigated are also actively engaged in the research process from the beginning of the study to the implementation stage. As such, the investigator is able to gain post-research knowledge. In the next sections, Jan attempts to clarify the misgivings that…
Template Value Chain My Life A value chain can be defined as a range of activities that company effects to deliver a valuable product. The product goes through a structured sequence of activities during which it adds value at every stage. The final value of the product, therefore, is a function of the values added at each stage. In the growth and development of an individual, a person’s life can be defined and effectively managed through the chain value model with the person being viewed as a product that goes through various elements in life stages and experiences that serve to add value to them.

Business Networks Technologies Question1 – Computer Network Topologies, Network Devices List four common LAN topologies and briefly describe their methods of operation by using appropriate diagrams and text. Discuss how the nodes are connected, the transfer of data, and its advantages and disadvantages. The four main LAN topologies are Star, Bus, Ring, and Mesh topology. In star topology, a main bub or switch connects all the computers and other devices on the network (Zhang and Cai, 2016, p.38). The function of the hub or switch is to amass and distribute data flow throughout the system. It is the most popular network type used. Bus topology, on the other hand, requires computers and other devices organized in a manner that allows the tools to be connected to a single linear cable identified as the trunk (Zhang and Cai, 2016, p.38). The configuration results in the log b referred to as the backbone. Nevertheless, both ends of the trunk must discharge to avoid the bouncing back of the transmitted signal. The third LAN topology is ring topology; computers and other network…
