Teamwork (90 pts)One of the pioneering firms in the use of team-based approaches to job design is W. L. Gore & Associates. Gore has made Fortune magazine’s “100 Best Companies to Work For” list for 11 consecutive years. It is one of only 3 firms that have made every list published by Fortune. The purpose of this exercise is to give you more insight about the working environment at this unique company. First, go to http:// and read the material in the “About Gore,Diversity at Gore,Gore at a Glance” and “Our Culture” sections under the “About Gore” heading. Then read the material in the “Careers” section. Next, read the Fortune magazine article “A Job That Lets You Pick Your Own Boss” which profiles the firm’s management style. It is posted at: http://money.cnn.com/2007/10/08/magazines/fortune/goretex.fortune/index.htmAnswer each of the following questions in detail, citing references from the course readings as well as the online articles in CSU-Global APA. Responses should be 450-500 words per question.•    How is the corporate culture of Gore different than other firms?•    How do associates function at Gore?•    How is the compensation program of Gore related to the concept of pay-for-performance?•    Would you like to work at Gore? Why or why not?

Hi, I need help with essay on Subject:Urban study. Topic: What can be learned from the urban Global South. Paper must be at least 250 words. Please, no plagiarized work!

The project which was launched in 2007, with the original idea targeting microfinance repayments was rolled out by Vodafone’s local operator in the country, Safaricom.

The system has had enormous effects on the lives of city residents and is slowly spreading to other parts of the country. It is estimated 25% of the country’s gross national product flows through the system. The system has also enabled its users to transfer money between bank accounts and the system in some markets (Jack and Suri, 19). Residents are also able to pay bills like electricity and water. Withdrawal and deposition of money and transfers from users to non- users is also another service offered by the system.

During its inception the system faced some diffusion challenges. Reliability and usability of the system were some of the trust issues residents had with the system. But this was taken care of by the Central Bank of Kenya through insisting that customer funds be deposited in a regulated financial institution.

A critical analysis of the system shows that this is an innovation of its kind in a sub-Saharan country. This system has improved the economy of this country. It has also offered financial solutions to country with almost 80% of the population lacking or having limited access to the traditional banking system.

Several things can be learnt from this system and be applied to the urban global north. It can be used to address employment by decentralizing banking services thus providing employment to people who will be agents (Merritt, 143). It is also easier to use and does not discriminate on the basis of literacy levels. The system is worth our attention as it could be adopted by countries in the global north and those in the global south to address their financial service

Create a 8 page essay paper that discusses Structural Engineering-Tensegrity Simplex Structure.

The concept of Tensegrity provides a high level of structural and geometrical efficiency and results in lightweight and modular structures. However, Tensegrity concept is still not part of the major design of stream structural wing because of various reasons. This paper therefore seeks to discuss Tensegrity, simplex structure. The paper will also detail how to find out the coordinates of the nodes, how to find out the angle of twist by simple geometry, how to find out the s/c ratio= 1.468, how to set up an actual model of prototype and the difficulties involved, as well as how the model deforms. Under this discussion, it is important to note that most of the bar to string configurations will not stay in equilibrium, and therefore if constructed they may possibly collapse to other shapes. Only the bar to string configuration in a stable equilibrium and pre-stressed will be referred to as Tensegrity structures.

According to Skelton et al. (2001), Tensegrity is a class of structures that possess continuous tension characteristics, discontinuous compression. The authors assert that stability is an important aspect in Tensegrity. A system of Tensegrity may be established when discontinuous components of compression interact with tensile components and defines stability in space. Generally, Tensegrity is geometry of a system of materials in a stable equilibrium if the particles within the system of the materials return to geometry beginning from an initial position arbitrarily close to this particular geometry to infinity as time goes by. In order to find out the coordinates of the nodes and the angle of twists by a simple geometry and to determine the s/c ratio, the concepts of Tensegrity play a pivotal part. The following concepts are used:

Pure tensile/compressive members: the structures of Tensegrity entail pure tension and compression members. The used tension elements are cables that

SOCIAL MEDIA ASSIGNMENT:As the prevalence of social media continues to rise, consumers are recognizing ways in which social media can direct them to better sources for purchasing.As a result, businesses are now jumping on the social media bandwagon at a rapid pace, embracing social networks to achieve their marketing and business goals.Identify one (1) of the major social media outlets and write a three to four (3-4) page paper in which you:Discuss the four (4) components of a legally astute social media marketing manager who utilizes social media outlets for consumer transactions and how each component can mitigate the risk involved in doing business in cyberspace.List and analyze methods of alternative dispute resolution and determine which would be most effective in resolving genuine disputes that arise with consumers who may make purchases from businesses that provide links via social media.Since consumer transactions on social media can occur across state lines, determine how the federal government can best control these transactions.Examine the three (3) branches of government and discuss which can effectuate the most significant impact on regulating consumer transactions via social media outlets. Support your decision.Explain whether or not the agency relationship exists on social media sites between the social media provider and businesses that utilize the site for advertising. Support your answer.Use at least three (3) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not quality as academic resources. Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date.
