From the first e-Activity, determine if current practices surrounding executive compensation should be changed. Provide either specific examples of what changes you believe are necessary, or a rationale for maintaining the status quo.
Other replies EXAMPLE FROM DISCUSSION
The three most essential components of executive compensation packages consist of core compensation, short-term incentives, and benefits. To attract exceptional talent businesses promote base pay and bonuses. Base pay is also known as salary a fixed rate of compensation and bonuses is pay based on performance. Short term incentives include profit sharing and gain sharing plans. Profit sharing plans are when the company shares a part of their profits with their employees and gain sharing is when the company. Benefits that includes Enhanced Protection Programs such as Life Insurance and Retirement Plans. Prerequisites benefits such as recreational facilities, travel perks, company car. All of these packages will attract more than exceptional employees because they show the employee that they are not only appreciated but that they have a say in where the company’s profits are going.
From the first e-Activity, I believe that the pay is a little too high for executives unless they're also going to include the other forms of compensation such as bonuses, profit sharing, company car. Some executives make more money before lunch than others that put in much more time and hard work such as assistants to the executives. Good employees deserve good pay but compensation should also be based on performance, productivity, and work load. Just because an executive is higher up on the corporate ladder does not entitle a person to just receive a big pay check as some of the CEO’s of some the big banks that went out of business due to the fore cluster.

To attract exceptional talent the three components that are most essential are: base pay, stock options, and bonuses. Base pay which is the base rate an employee gets pay for their employment. Base is important as an executive because they know what they are worth and expect to get pay at a competitive rate. Stock options is the option a company gives the employee in this case an executive to buy stock in the company. This is a great benefit for executives because sometimes stock option awards can be larger th.

3. To attract exceptional talent the three components that are most
essential are: base pay, stock options, and bonuses. Base pay
which is the base rate an employee gets pay for their
employment. Base is important as an executive because they
know what they are worth and expect to get pay at a competitive
rate. Stock options is the option a company gives the employee
in this case an executive to buy stock in the company. This is a
great benefit for executives because sometimes stock option
awards can be larger than their salaries and bonuses combined.
Lastly, bonuses. Executive bonuses is use to motivate
executives to reach a certain level of achievement within the
organization and whatever way to reward that than with a
bonus. Some people will be against bonus but at the end of the
day it they were the ones receiving it, I think the mentality
would change.
From the first e-Activity, determine if current practices

I don’t think the executive compensation package should be
change. Most of the executives earn this type of rewards, it’s
only fair that they get rewarded it. Again everyone always
thinks that the executives get too much of everything but most
of the blue collar employees don’t know the actual roles of the
executives or something as simple as how many hours they put
in in a week. Personally, I know a particular executive that
works double then what a regular employee works and he says
the higher you get in the organization the more responsibility
you will have.

Compensating the Flexible Workforce
"
Please respond to the following:
·
Create an argument either for or against the practice of using
contingent or flexible workers.
·
From the second e-Activity, determine how the company you
researched could best leverage a contingent and / or flexible
workforce. Provide specific examples to support your response.
Other replies EXAMPLE FROM DISCUSSION
I like flexible workers. If you take a step back and think about
it, flex workers are happier people because they either get to
choose their hours via flex time, or just get to learn more
skills. They aren't stuck in the rut of working the same hours
every day with the same days off. Their life is a bit more
unexpected and that in itself is refreshing for alot of people.
Flex workers from my experience have more skills too. This is
due to them being needed in all sorts of departments. Here are
some of the boons of flexible workers:
·
5. Better teamwork.
·
More productive workforce.
·
Happier employees.
·
Wider talent pool.
·
Reduced turnover (big one).
As I work for allstate and work very long hours (12) every other
day, having a more diverse number of people to have each of us
work less would benefit our sales. I find myself exhausted
close to the 10 hour mark and this affects my performance
greatly. Having each employee work 6 hours and just work 6
days a week would give us close to the same amount of hours
and make everyone happier. We all make salary anyway, so the
number of hours won't matter. As we work in 4 different
dealerships, management could rotate us every week to keep
things fresh. So one week, two of us work at one dealership
whilst the next week we work at another. This gets us to meet
more staff members and learn how each dealership works.

The weather condition known as El Niño is described on page
677 of your book. After reading this section, describe the major
interactions between the atmosphere and the surface ocean
water in the equatorial Pacific Ocean under “normal”
conditions. Next, describe the changes that occur in both the
atmosphere and the underlying ocean during an El Niño event. (
Note:
Be sure to include the changes of atmospheric convection,
warm surface ocean water, and the cold deep ocean water in
your description. List a specific region that is impacted
negatively by an El Niño event.)
·
Link to Weather: The El Niño Condition
·
8. When weather is measured over time, an average weather
pattern can be seen. Consistent behavior of weather over time is
climate. During some periods, the average weather pattern
departs from its norm. These variations from the average are
expected and have recognizable short-term changes in the
weather. A prime example of such a disruption is the El Niño
condition.
·
Under normal conditions, weather patterns in the Pacific are
controlled by warm, high-pressure systems located in both
hemispheres near the equator. These high-pressure systems
cause the trade winds to blow westward along the equator,
dragging the warm equatorial surface waters along with them.
As warm surface waters move westward, deeper, colder waters
to the east rise upward to occupy the space left vacant by the
warm surface water. The upwelling cold waters, rich in
nutrients, attract a variety of sea life. Upwelling of these cold
waters has been especially important to the fishing industry
along the coast of South America, where people earn their
living catching anchovies that come to feed in the nutrient-rich
waters.
·
Fishing is not always good, however. Each year in October the
trade winds slacken, reversing the normal westward flow of
warm tropical surface waters. As the warm surface waters drift
eastward, upwelling decreases and so does the fishing industry.
People along the South American coast refer to this occurrence
as El Niño because it begins each year around the traditional
December celebration of Christ’s birth (Christ is El Niño, “The
Child,” in Spanish). Under normal conditions, the trade winds
pick up again in early spring, the surface waters are again
9. blown westward across the ocean, and everything returns to
normal.
·
In some years, however, the trade winds fail to strengthen and
the warm surface waters remain off the coast of South America
for a year or longer. During these abnormal conditions,
upwelling of cold water ceases, and South American fishing
industries fail. Although a small El Niño occurs each year, this
extended El Niño is referred to as the El Niño condition.
·
The El Niño condition influences climate on both sides of the
tropical Pacific Ocean. Under normal conditions, upwelling cold
water on the eastern side of the Pacific coincides with dry cool
air, high pressures, and clear skies. On the western side of the
Pacific, surface waters—warmed and fueled by their long
journey across the ocean—warm the surrounding air. As the
warm moist air rises, low pressures and storms develop on the
warm western side of the Pacific.
·
During an extended El Niño condition, the pattern is reversed.
Warm water, rising warm moist air, low pressures, and storms
are found on the eastern side of the Pacific rather than the
western side. This exchange of pressure systems and weather
patterns between east and west during an El Niño condition is
sometimes referred to as the southern oscillation.
