What is Position?

Position as an academic topic spans a wide range of disciplines, from business administration and public policy to nursing, education, and personal development. Courses in organizational behavior, healthcare management, political science, and professional writing all prompt students to examine what it means to hold, argue for, or strategically occupy a position — whether that refers to a job role, a policy stance, a formal argument, or a place within an institution. The topic is academically interesting precisely because it sits at the intersection of identity, authority, knowledge, and strategy, requiring writers to think carefully about how individuals and organizations establish and justify where they stand.

The papers collected here take notably varied approaches. Some are analytical, examining how organizations and companies leverage employee experience and satisfaction to strengthen their competitive position. Others are policy-oriented, addressing issues in education, nursing practice, or public administration, including cultural diversity in nursing and the role of strategic planning in public policy. Still others are personal and reflective, asking writers to assess their own professional success, goals, and future plans. Case analyses and reviews — including examinations of leadership models in healthcare and the effects of deregulation on global finance — round out the range with applied, evidence-based approaches.

A strong essay on this topic begins with a clearly scoped thesis that specifies whose position is being examined and in what context — avoiding the common pitfall of treating "position" so broadly that the argument loses focus. Evidence drawn from organizational data, policy documents, professional guidelines, or concrete personal experience tends to carry the most weight. Writers should connect their specific case or argument back to broader principles, whether about leadership, institutional design, or professional identity, to demonstrate analytical depth beyond simple description.

Total quality management in luxury hotels: the Ritz Carlton approach

The Ritz Carlton's hotels are focused on a rather narrow target market that expects world class facilities as well as world class service by the hotels staff. While constructing world class facilities is one matter, maintain a staff that consistently can provide world class service is no easy endeavor. To meet this challenge the Ritz Carlton organization has implemented many of the concepts embodied in the Total Quality Management body of research. They provide their staff both the training and the resources that empower them to maintain quality standards on the spot without having to navigate layers of organizational bureaucracy. This allows the hotel staff the means to provide the hotels clients with not only world class service but they also have systems in place to ensure this level of service is maintained consistently throughout the entire network of hotels. This paper examines some of the quality issues that arise in service management in the luxury hotel industry and how the Ritz Carlton uses Total Quality Management practices to overcome these challenges.

Core measures for atypical acute myocardial infarction presentations

This paper discusses the appropriate procedure for a hospital to follow when a patient presents with atypical symptoms of a heart attack. Current core measures dictate a specific response when patients present with classic heart attack symptoms such as chest pain. However, early heart attack symptoms are often more subtle, and a significant percentage of heart attack patients never experience the classic symptoms. This paper advocates expanding the core measures to include patients presenting with atypical AMI symptoms.

University liability exemption clauses under UCTA 1977

In short, Ms. Edwards is not responsible for various reasons: not only was she a weaker party but she was also not aware of all the conditions that are incumbent in the contract. She did not have a choice; the university was the stronger party; they failed to make exclusions; they did not discuss the contract with her; and the furnishings are relatively inexpensive. For these reasons and more, Ms. Edwards may well claim that she is not liable for damaged under the reasonableness definitions of s.2(2) of the Unfair Contract Terms Act (UCTA) of 1977 .
