Sexual orientation discrimination in U.S. workplaces: objective and subjective analysis
Pizer et.al went on to state show that 37 percent of the LGBT people have gone to experience workplace harassment during their time there. Furthermore, 12 percent of these people have also gone to lose their job only because of their sexual orientation. The most recent data is of 2011 in which 90% of respondents to a survey of transgender people reported discrimination or mistreatment at work. Furthermore, 47% of the people went on to state that they were discriminated against during the process of hiring, promotion or job retention only due to their gender orientation. This has become a social problem because discrimination carried out by employers leads to a mismatch between qualified workers and jobs that are suited for them. (Klobuchar 1) In the long run, it is seen that this mismatch decreases productivity.

AVG Technologies: traditional versus auction-based IPO methods
AVG is an IT security company that focuses on consumers. The company has enjoyed great success worldwide and has aggressively acquired numerous companies. Now the company is posed to use an IPO to raise capital. The question is whether this company will benefit more from the traditional IPO or nontraditional auction-based IPO. Learning from the nontraditional auction-based IPO experiences of Google and Morningstar, AVG should apparently choose the traditional IPO method. Though the traditional IPO is more complex and expensive, it provides several key advantages, such as: greater media coverage, which instills more confidence in potential investors; greater support from traditional, large investors, including investment banks and hedge funds, and it tends to raise greater capital from fewer investors. In any event, AVG should consider numerous internal and external success factors to determine whether it will use an IPO and which type of IPO is the most advantageous.
