Option #1: Foodco’s New Product Launch and Reward System

As explained in the case study in Chapter 21 (Biron, 2018), Foodco was able to link a new product launch design with a reward system. Since almost the beginning of industrial times, bonuses, commissions, and other rewards have been used to reward people for launching a new and successful product. However, Foodco provided an innovative and unique process. Write a paper that describes how Foodco was able to link the launch with its reward system and evaluate ways in which it was innovative and unique. Also, provide supported recommendations for how the processes that Foodco employed could be implemented in your industry or the industry you desire to work within.

Your paper should be:

1. Three to four pages in length (not including cover and reference pages).

Write a 700- word analysis of your findings.

Include an explanation of ageism and how misconceptions and misinformation play a role in it.

Critical review article on Blockchain and Human Resource

Main Post: For this week’s main discussion post, you want to look in detail at the characters in the short story to produce a character portrait, a description of the personality, psychology, world-view, attitudes and values of a single character. This will involve looking at the different ways that the author creates and shapes the character. To write the assignment:

Choose a character—either Twinkle or Sanjeev.

Create a short post that answers the following questions:

1. What is the character’s personality?
2. What do they value?
3. How do they think/feel about their world?
4. What, if any, is their overall emotional tone (angry, frustrated, etc)?
5. How do they respond to the conflicts that arise in their world?
6. Choose a single word to sum them up, or to symbolize them.
7. At the end of our work time, share your findings with the class.

For your Peer Response post, choose at least one assertion that your peer makes about the character and, using evidence from the story, offer an alternative interpretation. For example, if your peer suggests that Sanjeev is controlling, find evidence in the text that suggests an alternative interpretation, such as evidence that suggests actions that seem controlling may stem from frustration, or just a different personality type.
