views on organisational change and learning

  Organizational learning : Organizational learning is the process through which a company develops over time by gaining experience and applying that information to create new knowledge. The acquired knowledge is subsequently disseminated throughout the organisation. Elements of Organizational Learning Organizational learning is a continuous process that results in long-term changes in a variety of areas as a result of coordinated efforts. There are three main subsystems in organisational learning: The acquisition of new inputs and their analysis is the initial subsystem. Any change within the organisation, changes in the organisational structure, or changes in technology are examples of new inputs. The organization's innovation is characterised by this stage. The retention of the newly acquired input is the second subsystem, and its effectiveness is mainly dependent on how well the new input is integrated with the existing processes.

caste based reservation in india

  CASTE BASED RESERVATION Despite the fact that India is the world's largest democracy, the caste system has resulted in a slew of scandals. For as long as anybody can remember, the caste system has been an essential component of Indian society. The "lower castes" were subjugated by the "upper castes" under this system. As a result, the Indian government implemented caste-based reservation in government positions and educational institutions in order to better the plight of the lower castes.

Muslims, Sikhs, Indian Christians, Anglo-Indians, and Europeans each receive their own representation. Mahatma Gandhi was outraged by the prize and fasted to death to convey his discontent. It did, however, garner a lot of support from people like B. R. Ambedkar. Gandhi broke his...

experiences with role taking and role conflict

  A.      Role taking- Putting oneself in mentally / imaginatively in role of other to regulate own behaviour   My personal experience with role taking was when I was preparing for interviews for colleges. I used to put myself in place of the interviewer and prepare for every possible questions that the interviewer could ask. I even anticipated all the cross questions that the interviewer could ask. I even   watched various you-tube videos in order to correctly assume the role of interviewer . I was successful to a great extent . as in almost all the interviews I was asked the questions that I had already prepared for whilst role taking.   Another time was when I was doing an internship. I was in a dilemma regarding one of the tasks that was assigned to me, and during that time I could not ask my mentor that how I should go about it because they were preoccupied with something. So instead I tried to put myself in their position and tried t...

views on organizational structure

  Organizational structure is basically the values, expectations, and practises that govern and inform the activities of all team members make up organisational culture. Consider it a collection of characteristics that define your organisation. A great corporate culture displays good features that lead to increased performance, whereas a dysfunctional company culture elicits characteristics that can sabotage even the most successful businesses. I think a good organizational structure for any company is extremely important because: Organizational structure represents the way one does business. Its the way people interact with each other internally in a company and also externally with outsiders .So naturally a good organizational structure will be beneficial for the company . A good organizational makes the employees advocates for the company. A good organizational structure means that employees get steady pay checks, good incentives etc. this means that employee satisfaction ...

Brand History of Dove

  Dove is a skincare brand owned by Unilever .Dove products are manufactured and sold around the world .Dove soap bars took on a unique, curved shape, and Dove packaging featured simple, elegant coloring around the now-iconic Dove bird design. Dove soon established itself as an innovator and outsider in the world of soap as a result of this easy brand recognition and differentiation in the minds of consumers. The 1960s saw Dove expand into a number of new international markets, as well as an evolution of Dove's advertising efforts. Dove created advertising that empowered women in response to the current situation. A new wave of feminism swept the United States in the 1960s, with women demonstrating a fresh readiness to work.
