Physical security Physical security is concerned with the physical constructs meant to safeguard against unauthorized access to military information or equipment. Due to the broad scope of these variables, challenges rise regularly, varying in targets and complexity. Physical security may be viewed as a result of physical risk avoidance, and failure in security may be considered to be in failure to recognize risks or communicate these risks. Most military organizations fail to assess how the access or breach of the physical elements of their organization may be implemented. This is because they are mainly focused on the more “technological” aspects of security. This is even though failure to address weaknesses in the physical components of the system would render all the firewall and cryptographic security measures useless. Physical security has become a daunting task for most organizations due to the complexity associated with modern technology. In the past, large military systems have often relied on their size, physical distribution, and the effort that would be taken to breach them as a kind of security in itself. Cyber-physical systems are used…

Reflection on the Course From the course, I can say that the element which I will find the most applicable in my major is the concept of culture and socialization. My major being Human resource management implies that I will deal with different people from diverse backgrounds. Therefore, this concept will enable me to understand their cultures and socializes with them more satisfactorily while meeting their organizational needs so that they can achieve the organizational goals. Notably, the area of the course which I find most interesting is the social deviance. It is worth noting that social deviance has been in existence for all societies where there have been norms. I find this interesting because understanding social deviance enables me to know how an individual will likely act in the face of social norms or rather when faced with other difficult circumstances. The week which I can say I encountered materials which I had not heard about it before is week 3. In week 3, I encountered George Herbert Mead’s concepts of the “I” and the “me.” I had never…
Who should Dirk sue? Why? Will the Court rule that a contract was created? Why or why not? If so, between which parties? Why? If not, why not? If so, is it enforceable? Why or why not? In the interest of determining who Dirk should sue, it would be advisable to establish whether there was a binding contract by considering all the elements that form a contract and determining if a particular party violated the binding provisions. A contract is a promise or an array of promises that are regarded as an agreement that legally binds two or more parties and agree to execute a certain undertaking and provides a remedy for the violation of the other terms by either party. It is compulsory that a contract be in writing and each party must show their intent for the existence of the contract. Such intent would be enforceable in a court of law when deciding if a contract exists, along with other specific factors, namely, legality, capacity, acceptance, offer and consideration. An offer is the inclination to enter…
Case Analysis essay Airbnb utilizes the sharing business model, whereby owners and operators come into an agreement about the use of assets. The sharing model allows organizations to hire the assets of other firms to lower the cost of production. In the case of Airbnb, the company hires the services of organizations with spare capacity (Varlaro & Gamble, 2017). The sharing business framework has been beneficial to the company. Airbnb is able to avoid the taxation and regulations associated with the brick-and-mortar establishments due to its involvement in the digital marketplace. Instead, the firm offers intermediary services between customers requiring lodging services and owners. Analysis The implementation of various strategies has been the source of Airbnb’s success. The organization offers a technological platform that results in low operating costs. Instead of developing hotels and motels, the company links owners with customers. For every customer that seeks services from owners, the firm obtains a percentage of the money. The low operating costs enable Airbnb to maximize profits. The organization takes advantage of the differing in size and target consumers. All firms…
Disengaged Teachers In every organization, employees face similar motivational problems due to the lack of creating better methods and scope towards engaging the workers. The problem is especially devastating when the disengaged workers are teachers. As a former assistant teacher and then teacher I can attest to many of the difficulties that can kill a teacher’s motivation and engagement in the classroom. One organization I worked for has faced a high turnover rate in their assistant teachers and frequent absenteeism. There is no question that when teachers are bored burned out or uninspired it takes its toll on everyone. The organization I worked for has been forced to invest all its efforts into human resources and hiring and training when it could have moved on to other things like improving curriculum, programs, and revamping the traditional classroom by incorporating technological educational tools for this new generation of students. When the teachers aren’t happy it spills over to the students who are the leaders of the future. As was mentioned although boredom and disengagement are endemic to many jobs it…
