Deregulation Of The Telecommunications Industry And The Bell System Divestiture - Impact On The Universal Service Concept, Edward H. Hancock

Deregulation of the telecornmunications industry and the soon to be accomplished Bell System divestiture will have a significant adverse impact on the universal service concept.

Quality Control Circles And The United States, Herbert M. Hart
Quality Control Circles And The United States, Herbert M. Hart
Theses
The Quality Control Circle attempts to solve management and production problems using a participative management style. This study represents an analysis of how the Quality Control Circle emerged in Japan and efforts in the U. S. to Americanize the concept. It is important to note that participative management represents a single management style. This style is not recommended for every organization. Organizations must select the appropriate management style to accomplish conceived goals and the style must fit within their particular corporate culture. The Quality Control Circle is an outgrowth of participative management and is not-all inclusive of participative management ideals.

The study examines the evolution of decision-making technologies and their historical underutilization in nonprofit sectors due to prohibitive costs and limited resources. IFPS is presented as a tool that enables scenario modeling, budgeting, and …

Motivation, Management Motivation, And Its Perceived Decline In American Bureaucratic Organizations In The Context Of Changing Attitudes And Values, Jon Lawrence Johnson
Theses
This Culminating Project represents an inquiry into the existence, applications, and parameters of human motivation and its impact on perceived management attitudes, values, and motivation to manage.
The topic is examined from three vantage points. Part I embodies a selective indoctrination in human motivation concepts and suggests relevant organizational applications and examples in illustration. The term "motivation" has evolved into a popular but often misapplied catch phrase. Therefore, a foundation in prominent human motivation theory is provided as precedent to issues subsequently discussed in the Project, to offer the reader an accurate base of subject knowledge.
Part II addresses the …
