There will be a providing of the rationale as to why those two managerial tasks and interventions were selected and described.

The author of this report will stick with the school environment when it comes to the project that will be discussed. Indeed, the author of this report has written many essays in the high school and now the college environment. The manager of course, would be the professor or teacher that oversees the class.

These standards and parameters include the length of the essay, the subject of the essay, the citation style of the essay (if applicable),...
There are also typically references to what kind of sources are acceptable. For example, Wikipedia is often off-limits when it comes to sources. Some professors ban internet sites altogether while others say that only "reputable" websites are allowed like news sites or ones that have .org or .edu address extensions. One type of source that is generally always accepted would be academic journal articles. Further, peer-reviewed academic journal articles are usually the most beloved as they are based on research and the results have been reviewed by the peers of the author(s) (SDSU, 2015).

Purpose Statement: Based on the various cogent arguments posed in favor of tenure, this research proceeds with the expectation that professorial perspectives will draw a direct correlation between the protection of this institution and the continuity of organizational effectiveness. According to Fishman (2000), "tenure protects the faculty member in three direct
It can be argued that from a responsibility standpoint, it is only money and can be replaced. Therefore, the risk associated with the actions of the manager do not compare with other professional fields. It would appear that licensure is not necessary, nor is a particular body of knowledge in order to become a successful manager.

In order to be more competitive, it had recently hired two business managers. Yes, they did have more experience than the MBAs right out of school. Yet, no, despite their $350,000.00 income, they know little about how hospitals are run.

Mr. Ross Craven, The Manager, Pizza Hut, Turner Street, Philadelphia. Dear Sir, I would like to bring to your knowledge the fact that I have been a regular customer of your restaurant for the past four to five years. This is a fact that is further punctuated by you knowing me personally as well. The food, I must say, has always appealed to me primarily because of two factors, the comparatively smooth service and, initially,
