The Importance Of Integrating The Baldrige Concept Into Organizations Introduction As part of studies, every organization strives for excellence in its quality and productivity rate. To achieve this, I learned several concepts that organizations use to reach their goals. Such ideas form the basis of excellence, which must be put in place with any organization seeking to maximize productivity. One of the core values that any business seeking productivity must apply is the Baldrige concepts (Toussaint, Griffith &Shortell, 2020). Many organizations that had achieved success in their undertakings had, in a way, applied the Baldrige process. It is essential for any organization seeking quality performance to integrate Baldrige principles into its organizational management. The paper seeks to give the importance of integrating the Baldrige concept into organizations. Baldrige process and quality During my studies of the Baldrige process and quality, I have learned several concepts that have continued to enhance organizations’ productivity that employed the Baldrige concept in their management. Since, the Baldrige excellence framework is based on the idea of helping organizations reach their goals, improve on their results…

Price discriminate   The ranking of the highest valuation of the objects may be affected by introducing the new bidders, thus affecting the bidding strategies in a different way that may lead to a decline in prices.  Concerning the effect of price on various market structures, the outcome of the auction is affected by the number of bidders where they may tend to retreat from buying or form a ring, thus manipulating auctions’ results.  The competitions become weaker when the number of bidders tends to bid against the ring members, affecting the final results. Unofficial auctions may follow at the end of official auctions between the members, resulting in splitting prices.  In relation, the price also determined by the supply and demand curves of the goods traded. Therefore, the demand of many bidders purchasing one commodity may lead the seller to charge higher prices on the goods sold.   When the same provider sells identical goods and services at different prices in a competitive market, it leads to price discrimination. The buyer is charged a maximum price from what he…

  Case Application What important elements are missing in the performance management process? In what ways would improve the performance management process help improve discipline and morale at Modern Office Supply?   Lack of honest feedback about the employee’s performance is one of the essential elements missing in the performance management process. Employees need to be given an honest opinion about how they perform in various areas. According to Fatima, the supervisor does not provide an honest opinion about how the employees perform in various areas. To improve the discipline and morale of the employees, it is essential to hold employees accountable for their actions. Whether the feedback is positive or negative, the employee should be made aware of their performance. An example is when the driver claims it is okay to do something wrong because other employees are also doing the same without getting reprimanded. In Modern Office supply, all the employees should be trained on how to train on how to handle customers, and feedback about their performance regularly given so as to motivate them. Explain ways the…

ARTICLE REVIEW The pleasure of Eating is an article written by Wendell Berry describing how standards have been degraded of what is eaten by the people. It also explains what measures can be done to have a chance to such a problem. Most of the urban shoppers would let people understand that food is mainly produced within the farms, although many do not understand the kinds of firms, where the farms are located, or even the skills involved in the process of farming. They usually doubt that there will be a continuation of production within the farms; they are not aware of farm production’s impending obstacles. However, an individual will always find this obliviousness represented in the virgin purity within the food industry advertisements. The food is considered to wear as much makeup as the actors. Everyone is believed to have bought food that may seem to be fair, although, in reality, it is not what appears to be outside, what is on the inside part. There is a great need to understand where the food came from if any…

                Traditional Media Student’s Name Institution Affiliation Professor Course Date                   Traditional Media Traditional media can be defined as any communication channels available before the digital media emergence. Examples of conventional media include books, radio, newspapers, magazines, and television. As much as people still rely on traditional media to get information, digital media has taken over, reaching most people (Lin, 2019). The traditional media is on its way out as the media landscape keeps changing, prompting advertisers to focus more on using new media channels to advertise their products and services. As part of the new media, the internet has profoundly influenced the way people get information and news.

    United States Healthcare         Insert Name Institutional Affiliation Course Instructor             United States Healthcare Questions 1 The affordable care act led to changes in the primary healthcare systems. Most of the independent doctors joined other healthcare to words to survive.  I was impressed by the direct primary care movement as it seeks to address healthcare through direct payment by patents and to offer their services without insurance. They are going back to the era before the institutional of insurances.  I like the idea that doctors under this movement have procedures and medical treatment with their prices, making it easier for them to choose.  However, some of the challenges that come with this strategy are lack of scalability in the sense that physicians who treated patients using the direct care approach do not attend to as many patients as other doctors in practice. This limits their capability of meeting the needs of their patients.  It entails having more patients on retainers that make access to services more complex, hence limiting the…

In recent years, there have been many developments in the medical health field that have made diagnosis more straightforward and faster. However, the improvements have created many chances of negligence and malpractices by healthcare officials that could adversely affect patients. Therefore, legal regulations must be put in place to ensure that healthcare practices are carried out in the right way and that patients are protected from exploitation. The government has put in place a set of rules, laws, and regulations to protect individual patients and healthcare providers. The set laws also give directives on healthcare professionals’ responsibilities and how well they should carry out the duties. Some of the legal issues addressed by the set laws by healthcare professionals include trust issues on confidentiality, medical negligence, informed consent, and integrity issues. The antitrust issues There are increasing cases of corruption and other unethical practices by health providers that have been reported over time.
