I have always believed business can be a tool for a greater good, and if I could apply what Iââ¬â¢ve learned for that purpose, it would be extremely rewarding.What did you enjoy most about majoring in a business-related field? I believe a business education, particularly in Finance, gives you an excellent portrait of the way organizations work, and provides you with the knowledge, tools and frameworks to be productive from the start of your professional activities. Often Iââ¬â¢ll find myself reading the news, looking at a product, or hearing about a new company, and using what Iââ¬â¢ve learned in class almost instinctively, without noticing. After four years at Mendoza you realize how much youââ¬â¢ve learned and grown and what you can do with your knowledge.Where would you like to work after graduation?à Iââ¬â¢m going to be working in Bain Company as an Associate Consultant in Chicago, Illinois.What are your lo ng-term professional goals? After working in consulting for a several years, I would probably want to start my own business or explore another industry. Further down the road I could also see myself as a professor. In any case, I want to make sure I can see the impact of my work, be a piece of a puzzle for a greater good.ââ¬Å"I knew I wanted to major in business whenâ⬠¦I was a senior in high school. The National Honor Society had always helped a rural elementary school by giving them Sunday classes and donating goods, but I wanted to have a more tangible impact when I was president. I set out to look for donors, and decided to expand our sale of school sweatshirts from our middle/high school campus to the elementary campus to raise money for the school. The expansion of the sweatshirt sales was my first contact with accounting, with contracts and commitments, and with the satisfaction that comes from achieving your goals. That year we raised a significant amount of money, and afterwards, once I was at Notre Dame, I found out that several new classrooms were being built. I realized that a business education would provide me with a solid foundation to contribute meaningfully in a variety of different industries, ranging from corporations to non-profit work.â⬠à ââ¬Å"If I didnââ¬â¢t major in business, I wouldâ⬠¦have probably been an architect. I liked to draw growing up, and whenever I travel I always love to take architecture tours and think about how entire cities and their buildings transformed over time. But many architects need a business education to become successful or to manage their success, so you never stray far from this field.â⬠à What was the happiest moment of your life? One of the happiest moments of my life was probably during Freshmen Orientation at Notre Dame. I was taking a tour around our beautiful campus and all of a sudden I felt full of wonder and excitement at the idea of spending the next four years here. I wa nted to gain different perspectives, make meaningful relationships with people from all over the world, and take advantage of as many opportunities as I could. Four years later I still feel extremely lucky and I know I will think of my time at Notre Dame and Mendoza as some of the best years of my life.Which academic or personal achievement are you most proud of? I am most proud of my involvement with the Student International Business Council (SIBC). I started out as a member participating in multiple projects, then led three projects, and currently Iââ¬â¢m finishing my term on the Board of Directors as the Consulting Division Director. SIBC has been an integral part of my time at Notre Dame, helped me meet many students from different backgrounds and taught me valuable skills that you canââ¬â¢t learn in a classroom setting. I enjoyed growing professionally and personally through SIBC, and being able to help younger classmates, the way upper classmates helped me when I starte d.What animal would you choose to represent your professional brand? Itââ¬â¢s difficult to say, since it would depend on the product or services offered. For consulting, you need to transmit vision, creativity, swiftness, team work and boldness. A wolf might work.Who would you most want to thank for your success? I would want to thank my parents the most for my success. Iââ¬â¢ve been blessed with very supportive parents who have always encouraged me to discover and pursue my interests, and to be become a better person. I have always tried to follow their simple advice to, ââ¬Å"get involved, and make a difference.â⬠Fun fact about yourself: Growing up I participated in almost every single school play since my First grade, and it all ended after I played the role of Maria in the Sound of Music in 11th grade. I still take voice lessons at Notre Dame.Favorite book: Anna Karenina by Leo TolstoyFavorite movie: The Dead Poetsââ¬â¢ Societyà Favorite musical performer: Celi ne DionFavorite vacation spot: Cabo San Lucas in Mexico, in the Southern tip of the Baja California Peninsula.What are your hobbies?

She is always one of the first to arrive in class, she is prepared, asks questions and is a good student. It has been a pleasure to have her in my classes.à What has set her apart from many of my other students is her demeanor. She is poised, very professional and mature beyond her years.

Essay on Brave New World - 696 Words
Brave New World George Santayana once said, ââ¬Å"Ideal society is a drama enacted exclusively in the imagination.â⬠In life, there is no such thing as a ââ¬Å"complete utopiaâ⬠, although that is what many people try to achieve. Aldous Huxleyââ¬â¢s Brave New World is an attempt at a utopian society. In this brave new world, mothers and fathers and family are non-existent. Besides being non-existent, when words of that sort are mentioned, ears are covered and faces of disgust are made. In a report to the Controller, Bernard wrote,â⬠â⬠¦This is partly due, no doubt to the fact that he heard them talked about by the woman Linda, his m-----ââ¬Å"(106). Words of the sort cannot even be written. Art, history, and the ability to have emotions are shunned.â⬠¦show more contentâ⬠¦It may seem to be a utopia, but in essence, brave new world is far from it. Well-being is not and can not be, genetically pre-programmed, but that is what the soma is for. When one of the inhabitants experiences unpleasant thoughts or emotions, which supposedly do not exist anyway, they receive soma: ââ¬Å"One cubic centimeter cures ten gloomy sentiments( ).â⬠Although the people here are allegedly emotionless, it is shown that they are far from it. Bernard is overcome by feelings of non-conformity. He feels that people should be monogamous, he has emotions, he believes in love. Bernard loves Lenina. This is a concept, though, which is too abstract for these inhabitants to fully understand. Bernard realizes that he is not the only one that feels this way when the Director speaks of an occurrence over twenty-five years ago, which is alone, bad manners in this ââ¬Å"utopia.â⬠The fact that he still dreams of this occurrence shows that he was more emotion than what is ââ¬Å"good for youâ⬠in this system. When Bernard brings Linda and her son, John to the Director, he responds with disgust. After this, Lindaââ¬â¢s face twists ââ¬Å"grotesquely into the grimace of extreme grief ( )â⬠, an emotion that is unknown to these sheltered people.

The Truman State Student Body - 2004 Words
Introduction The following paper will report and analyze data collected over five years in an introductory statistics class. The data was collected through a survey taken at the beginning of the semester, with this semester being the fifth in the data set, will be analyzed through a variety of statistical procedures and then inferential statistics will be used to describe the whole Truman State student body. This data set provides a very good representation of Truman students because all students, regardless of their major, are required to take the introductory statistics class. This means that there should be significant similarities between means of the data set and the mean population of Truman. Using living on or off campus as a base, this analysis and the questions posed will be used to determine if housing affects certain aspects of Truman studentsââ¬â¢ lives, such as: studying hours, amount of time spent exercising, and the average amount of sleep per night. Proposed Questions One question that is trying to be answered through the following data collection and test are whether or not living on campus affects the amount of time Truman Students spend working out. Another proposed question is whether or not living off campus has a direct affect on the amount of time Truman students spend studying per week.

Analysis of I Am the Grass - 1707 Words
Analysis of I Am The Grass Daly Walker has written a story about a doctor who is haunted by the shame and guilt he carries with him from the atrocious acts he committed while serving in the army; acts so horrible that he cannot speak of them. The story depends on his use of three literary elements: setting, plot and symbolism. He has never told his wife and daughter anything about the time he spent as a grunt with the 25th infantry in Vietnam even though the horrible memories are with him all the time. He loves his wife and daughter and wants them to believe he is a good man even though he doesnââ¬â¢t believe it. He feels that he is two people fighting within himself. On the outside, he appears to live a comfortable life as a physician andâ⬠¦show more contentâ⬠¦Then the plot takes us on his journey back to Vietnam on a trip to repair the cleft palates and lips of children on whose land ââ¬Å"he once wreaked havoc, whose parents and grandparents he murderedâ⬠, the people he stills holds contempt for deep inside himself. At their first meeting, it is contempt that he feels toward Dr. Lieh Viet Dinh, the director of Khanh Hoa Hospital. This doctor was also in the war. He was a surgeon for the North Vietnamese. He was taken prisoner by the South Vietnamese Special Forces who starved and tortu red him, eventually cutting off both of his thumbs. He can no longer perform surgery or even eat with chop sticks because he has no thumbs. The narrator becomes immersed in his work on the children and after the first week realizes he is beginning to like the nurses and doctors in the operating room. His feelings of guilt and ambivalence are replaced by a sense of good will and atonement, ââ¬Å"as if Vietnam and I were two bad people who had unexpectedly done something nice for each other.â⬠While he was performing surgery during this first week, Dr. Dinh, came every day to observe him. The plot takes an unexpected turn when Dinh asks him to transplant one of his toes onto his hand to make a thumb. The surgery is finally agreed upon and performed.

The Sin Of Ham Recorded Essay - 955 Words
The sin of Ham recorded in Genesis 9:20-24 has different views including voyeurism, castration, and paternal incest. Scholars Bergsma and Hahn have come up with the maternal-incest view from their study of specific words related to the account. The first part of this paper will focus on Bergsma and Hahnââ¬â¢s word study to indicate that their maternal-incest view is a viable option. The second part of the paper will focus on the word ââ¬Å"baraâ⬠(to create) in the Hebrew Bible. This word will be examined to articulate the different usages and meanings of the word. Therefore, this paper will focus on the importance of word study to show that words are of critical importance in understanding the meaning of the Hebrew Bible in specific contexts. Genesis 9:20-24 Hamââ¬â¢s Sin There are different views concerning Hamââ¬â¢s sin recorded in Genesis 9:20-24. The traditional views include voyeurism, castration, and paternal incest. Bergsma and Hahn have introduced another view known as the maternal-incest view. Bergsma and Hahn have made a persuasive argument that states Hamââ¬â¢s sin was not incest with his father, but that he had sexual incestual relations with his mother. This conclusion has been made from the idiomatic meaning of the phrase Ãâà à ªÃâ¢Ã ¨Ã ¢ Ãâà à ¨ ââ¬Å"to see the fatherââ¬â¢s nakednessâ⬠(v. 22). The paternal incest view equates Leviticus 20:17, ââ¬Å"to uncover nakednessâ⬠as a euphemism for sexual intercourse.

Health System Healthcare Financing and Economics â⬠Free Samples
Question: Discuss about the Health Systems Healthcare Financing and Economics. Answer: Introduction The systematic utilization of cost-efficiency approaches is highly warranted in the context of effectively accomplishing the healthcare requirements of the Australian population (Foteff, et al., 2016). The factorial analysis of the cost of healthcare interventions is highly warranted in the context of surpassing the scope of attaining inaccuracies in the economic assessment. Indeed, resource planning for the public healthcare services and products is highly required with the objective of streamlining revenue cycle management in the Australian healthcare sector. The cost-utility analysis is based on the evaluation of the cost-to-benefit ratio in relation to the medical requirements and other healthcare needs of the target population (Farag, Sherrington, Ferreira, Howard, 2013). The analysis requires undertaking a systematic survey of the clinical settings as well as community groups for understanding the actual cost of the devices, medications, equipment and procedures in relation to wellness outcomes and disease patterns experienced by the Australian population. The statistical analysis of the pattern of injury, disability and illness requires evidence-based exploration for calculating the requirement of the healthcare interventions and their associated costs for configuring the healthcare planning and economic evaluation. This essay evidentially discusses the concepts of cost-effectiveness and cost-utility analysis in relation to the requirement of healthcare resource allocation for the streamlining of public healthcare services and products in real time scenarios. The essay further explores the potential gaps in the Australian public health system and financial challenges encountered in their effective mitigation. The essay also proposes the health system reform and proactive approaches warranted for accomplishing these gaps to systematically enhance the Australian public health system. Cost-effectiveness and utility analysis for healthcare resource allocation requires feedback from Australian healthcare agencies in relation to the budget allocation and effectiveness of healthcare interventions warranted for the enhancement of wellness outcomes, while reducing the extra cost associated with the medical services and procedures (Baum, DesRoches , Campbell , Goold , 2011). The healthcare revenue cycle is based on healthcare billing requirements, pre-certification, pre-authorization, underpayments and rejection of medical claims. The thorough evaluation of Australian healthcare revenue cycle is required for the systematic assessment of the cost of various healthcare services as well as insurance policies and conventions governing their administration to the eligible candidates. Additional healthcare reimbursement to physicians and healthcare providers is principally based on the quality of services administered in the healthcare setting (Colpas, 2013). Therefore, the i dentification of the actual requirement of administration of qualitative healthcare interventions beyond the conventional medical care gives an estimate of the extra cost involved in the effective delivery of additional healthcare interventions in the clinical setting. The assessment of various tools and techniques employed for capturing the healthcare data provides an overview of the appropriateness of these tools in relation to the systematic recording of healthcare needs as well as associated medical interventions warranted for their accomplishment in the medical facility (Giannangelo Fenton, 2008). The recording of medical services codes in revenue cycle software assists in retrieving the cost incurred in administering the clinical interventions for treating various patient conditions. Analysis of consultation reports gives a true picture of the extent of cost-effective administration of healthcare services to the treated patients. The assessment of patients discharge summary f rom hospital databases provides an overview of the cost incurred in treating the patients during the entire length of their stay in the hospital setting. The systematic analysis of the epidemiological data and technology-intensive healthcare specialties required for evaluating the expense involved in treating various community-based diseases in the Australian sub-continent (Kumar, 2011). Diagnostic interventions like echocardiogram, Holter monitor and screening mammogram are some of the significant approaches utilized for ruling out the onset and progression of cardiovascular as well as cancerous conditions among the patient population. The outcomes of these interventions provide the direction for utilizing therapeutic approaches in the context of treating the diagnosed clinical conditions. The assessment of total cost incurred in undertaking the diagnostic and procedural interventions provides concrete information regarding the cost utilization in healthcare services. However, the assessment of burden of cardiovascular and cancer conditions in the community environment gives direction regarding optimal and cost-effective utilization of diagnostic and procedural services warranted for the enhancement of the wellness outcomes. The Australian public health system is state-based and the healthcare norms follow the conventions stipulated by the Commonwealth of Australia Constitution Act (1900) (Philippon Philippon, 2008). The Australian public health system utilizes private financing approaches with the objective of equitable administering of healthcare services to the patient population (Collier, 2013). Private funding in public health system increases the pattern of positive competition between the physicians and they tend to administer qualitative healthcare interventions while effectively surpassing unnecessary expenses (Collier, 2013). Localized empowerment of general practitioners in Australia assists them in fostering health and wellness outcomes while accomplishing the requirements of local populations through mutual coordination. The Australian public health system effectively caters the primary healthcare needs of individuals through family practice and advocates the provision of administration of after-hours care to the treated patients (Collier, 2013). The incorporation of private healthcare insurances substantiates the requirement of necessity-based treatment approaches that remain available throughout day and night irrespective of the remote or rural locations of the Australian communities. The greatest shortcoming of the Australian public healthcare system attributes to the fact that it remains less equitable for the underprivileged sections of the society, in comparison to the established groups (Collier, 2013). Patients with lesser financial capacity experience challenges in availing qualitative healthcare interventions at the optimal cost. For example, Indigenous groups in Australia substantially experience the pattern of health inequalities in comparison to the non-aboriginal Australians (Rosenstock, Mukandi, Zwi, Hill, 2013). This gap in the Australian healthcare system attributes to the financial incapacity of indigenous groups regarding the acquisition of the hea lthcare services for the enhancement of their quality of life and associated wellness outcomes. Evidence-based research literature documents serious gaps related to the configuration and administration of healthcare services to the Australian patients (Lo, et al., 2017). Patients who receive tertiary healthcare interventions report individualized barriers and treatment challenges that potentially hinder their compliance to the recommended treatment approaches. Some of the major barriers to the administration of tertiary healthcare services in Australia attribute to the deficits in continuity of care, absence of understanding about medical conditions, mood alterations, co-morbid states, irrational medical advices and inappropriate communication between providers and patients (Lo, et al., 2017). The systematic mitigation of these significant gaps needs a major transformation in the Australian healthcare system for effectively administering equitable healthcare services to the patient population. The absence of equitable healthcare delivery system for impoverished Australians requires the systematic configuration of health promotion strategies requiring customization for the empowerment and enhancement of self-determination of indigenous Australians (McPhail-Bell, et al., 2017). However, private healthcare agencies might challenge the attempt for empowering indigenous groups because that could potentially impact their healthcare business, and extra privilege to aboriginal people might also facilitate opposition by the established sections of Australian society. Furthermore, the mitigation of tertiary healthcare challenges requires the configuration of educational approaches and counselling sessions for the treated patients. Private healthcare agencies might oppose this additional investment in tertiary health services because of budgetary issues that could significantly impact the pattern of their profitability. The healthcare reform that I would implement in the Australian healthcare settings attributes to the promotion of behavioural healthcare for the impoverished sections of the society (Willging, et al., 2012). The administration of behavioural approaches will significantly enhance the pattern of trust and confidence of the impoverished patients on the recommended treatment interventions. It will also improve the alliance of the indigenous groups with the treating physicians and assist in the promotion of the therapeutic relationship for the effective enhancement of wellness outcomes. Improved compliance and better therapeutic outcomes will motivate healthcare professionals for taking additional healthcare measures for the impoverished Australians. Eventually, they might convince the private health agencies for undertaking additional financial measures with the objective of streamlining the healthcare system while providing cost effective and equitable healthcare interventions to all se ctions of the Australian society. Conclusion Cost-effective and equitable administration of healthcare services to all sections of society should be the preliminary objective of any healthcare system. Australian public health system caters to the healthcare needs of people in rural and urban locations; however, the prohibitive cost of medical services due to the involvement of the private health sector challenges their administration to the economically weaker sections of the society. The Australian public health system requires a major transformation in terms of association of governmental agencies as well as social care organisations in the public health sector for the systematic administration of healthcare interventions to the impoverished individuals. Behavioural counselling and motivation strategies warranted for treating economically weaker sections of the society will require additional financial investment in the initial phase by the healthcare agencies. However, the enhancement of quality of life of impoverished peopl e following the administration of additional healthcare interventions will gradually reduce this extra investment and streamline the Australian public health system for the longer term.

Sponsorship Proposal For Event Samples â⬠MyAssignmenthelp.com
Question: Discusss about the Sponsorship Proposal For Event. Answer Introduction: Event organization is the matter of high importance as it undertakes number of coordinators responsible for the success of the event proposed to be organized. Event organization needs a proper understanding on the theme and it also requires proper quantification of the budget and other modes of sponsorships. This paper proposes an effective sponsorship for the event planned to be organized. It also develops acash management plan for the event with the help of the basic requirements and the advanced requirement of such. The following structure shall help the event manager structure a solid layout of the event: Event Type: Mass Healthcare and Medical Awareness Event Location: New South Wales Audience Information: Since last year the event was full of some important delegates from some important companies and they were quite satisfied with the service provided to them, we look forward to attend the same strata of audiences. This cocktail party would be more eventful with the grace of some of the CEOs and directors of renowned healthcare and medicine companies like Ranbaxy, Sanofi and others. The event would be graced with the visit of the director general of AIHW who will be focusing on the development of health care development of the country. Due to such heavy weights of the delegates the event needs to be lifted to the newer version from the last years participation. For the purpose of this era this has to be taken in to certain consideration with the effective result of this event. On top of that it needs to be taken in to consideration that the basis of the entertainment needs to be taken in to certain consideration. Last year the event drew affluent audiences who could afford to pay for the cultural fest. The household income crossed $ 110,000 for more than 40 % of the attendees purchased products and services from the event. This time we plan to put some important stalls and mini outlets for food, beverage, books and medical kits with directories so as to reach to the greater number of the audiences. The quality of the service provision such as personal medical counseling and medical advisory would be effective for the audiences. So we need greater quality and amount of sponsorship so that no set back can be detected in terms of service provision. A strong setup is needed for the event. Event Marketing Value: Marketing value of the event lies in the act of advertising, direct sales method, promotional activities and reaching to the target audience. Advertising: Advertisement would be practiced with the help of print media and electronic media. Since this event is going to be associated with healthcare and medical awareness issues the association with the electronic media would not be as much effective as expected from the events related to entertainment. The event would be advertised through four different newspapers in the New South Wales. We would further like to optimize social media services so as to excel the publicity of such. In order to do so we would hire some SEO and SMO experts who would be working upon it. The designs of advertisement would depend upon the quality of graphic services. We hereby plan to frame indigenous art so as to promote such culture and we would also focus on the promotional activity of the indigenous groups. The aim of this design is to provide the audiences with the core concept of the health issues of the deprived class of the country. Direct Sales: There is a huge opportunity for the number of audiences to come down to the event because of constant development of the personal contacts with the attendees. Moreover, a long terms contact with the vendors and the suppliers would also be fruitful for the act of sponsorship. This would minimize the extra cost for logistics and supply chain. Thus the sponsorship can focus on the investment for the quality of the event. The carrying cost and storage cost would be minimized because of the contact base that we have with the providers. Promotion: The promotion of the event would be channelized through social media and search engine optimization process. On top of that some mini events would be taken in to consideration that has been planned to effective a month prior to the major event. Roles to be allocated: In this context a specification of job role needs to be taken in to consideration. In order make a proper cash management plan, one need to specify the followings tasks: Drafting of Documents Prefunding Managing Cash- flow Supply Relation Sponsors and Exhibitors Revenue Start-up of Marketing Payment Terms Credit Control Cash- Flow: Starting Cash Position 0 Inflow (Source of Fund) Cash Sales 3000 Collection from Accounts Receivable 0 Other Cash Receipts 0 Total Cash Inflow 3000 Outflow (Use of Fund) Fixed Cost $1,050 Administration $1,200 Marketing $1,000 Operations $2,000 Total Cash Outflow 5250 Closing Cash Position -2250 With the aforementioned cash flow it can be stated that the projected cash inflow would be AUD $3000 and the total cash outflow would be AUD $ 5250. The fixed cost shall remain between AUD $ 1000 and AUD $ 1100 so that a balance can be maintained within the inflow ad the outflow. Cash Management Plan: Setting up the Event Accountant's fees $100 Solicitor's fees $50 Business Registration Fee $80 Insurance $150 Licences $100 Workers compensation $0 Setting up the premises Lease deposit and advance rent $350 Utility bonds and connection $100 Stationery and office supplies $600 Plant and equipment Equipment $500 Vehicles $400 Telecommunications $300 Computers and software $700 Total Start Up Cost 3430 Conclusion: This plan is going to be set up with the help of the engagement of proper cash management. As a matter of fact, this has to be taken in to certain consideration with the effective changes. Having conceptualized theevent management plan it can thus be stated that the event would be profit making. The front page of the advertisement for the event would be full of advertisement of the sponsoring companies. Bibliography: Bodie, Z., Kane, A. and Marcus, A.J., 2014.Investments, 10e.
