Identify the issue that began the conflict, the players and their roles within the conflict, the severity of the conflict, and your personal role in the conflict at the initial stage.

This project will assess your understanding and management of conflict through a paper outlining a personal or professional conflict you were involved in or helped to mediate. The conflict you select should have three distinct stages: 1. Initial Conflict (What started the issue and what initial steps were taken to resolve it?) 2. Escalation (Why did the initial conflict balloon into something bigger?) 3. Resolution (How was the conflict eventually resolved and what were the results?)

10-12 page essay

2. Identification of the Conflict: Identify the type of conflict (value, structural, data, relationship, or interest) and support the identification with evidence from the conflict.

3. Initial Management of the Conflict: Discuss the initial steps used to manage the conflict and the form of management taken (accommodation, avoidance, competition, compromise, collaboration, or a combination of these).

Find a specific standards organization you are interested in.

Address the bulleted items in 200 to 250 words or more. Use additional research to support your answers and remember to cite your sources. Then respond to at least two classmate’s posts.

As a business I want to know what are the basic expectations for my product or service. Where do I go to know what these standards are? Organizations many non-profits have been established to provide the requirements, specifications, guidelines, or characteristics of a product or service. An example is the American Institute of Steel Construction (AISC). Standards from this and other organizations take into account governmental regulations materials used, products produced, processes applied, and services that are suitable the intended purpose.

Base you post on the following:

• Watch:

Find a company website of your choosing, that has very low appeal,

Find a company website of your choosing, that has very low appeal,Describe the issues, provide solutions We live in a time when online shopping has become a widely-used method for acquiring goods and services. Many shoppers today seek out information browsing the Internet, either to conduct research as a preamble to visiting a brick and mortar store or to directly purchase a product or order a service. As we studied in a previous chapter, search engine optimization (SEO) is a very important factor if an enterprise wishes to succeed in reaching online customers effectively. NIKE, Inc., one of the most successful businesses in its field, had not done well in search engine rankings a few years ago, despite allocating a large amount of capital to that endeavor. Even with its highly innovative staff, Nike ultimately had to seek outside help to come up with a better SEO solution.

Find a company of your choosing other entity with an Internet website that has very low “eye candy” appeal, font sizes that are too small or barely readable, or pages that seem to crawl at a snail’s pace when loading. Describe the issues and offer solutions that might enhance the website. Contrast this company’s presence with that of another, describing specific areas where one shines and the other lacks. Be sure to discuss the “backend” where web servers and networking capability might be an issue. Is the reason for slow throughput to your system an inadequate or poorly designed network infrastructure on their end? What could the enterprise do to “fix” the issues? Let us see what you can come up with to help the company improve its Internet footprint.

APA Style requirements are a must.
