Auction Types of auctions From this chapter, I learnt that auctioning is the process of trading goods or services by offering bids. It, therefore, means that auction sales form price competitions in which the customers are given the freedom to influence the price of the seller. The model is often used by many trading companies universally. An example of a company that uses this model is the CarBargains company. In this chapter, I also came across numerous essential concepts. These include the different types of auctions and the process of determining price in each of them. The English auction is one type of auction sales. From this, I learnt that in this type of auction, the cost of commodities is determined by the value. In this model, bidders offer cumulative bids until only one customer remains. The Vickrey auction is a closed-bid sale, in which the highest bidder wins the contest but pays the second-uppermost bid. Such auctions are similar to verbal auctions and are suitable for internet users. It was also meriting to note that such auctions are also…

Benefits of a Holistic Assessment Social workers have to ensure that for every case they handle before taking any action to offer support to the client, it is essential to do a holistic assessment. A comprehensive assessment is a planned care process that seeks to understand the problem the client is undergoing, his or her personal information, factors that led to the situation, and what he or she has that can be used to offer support for his recovery. Assessment is an essential step for any social worker as it gives guidance on how one will deal with the clients.

According to the topic ‘Your Life Story,’ leaders face pressures and seductions that make them deter from their real purpose (George, 2). It requires courage for a leader to overcome these pressures as well as expectations and take corrective actions when necessary. This book emphasizes that the most crucial aspect of leadership is character and values that guide one’s life. Under the topic, ‘Losing Your Way,’ a leader lives by his values, beliefs, and principles that encompass the deepest level of who he is.
