If asked to rank their current and future needs, many managers of non-profit organizations would likely place branding at the bottom of the list. If asked why, some might reply: "I can’t afford to undertake a major branding effort right now." That’s the wrong answer. In today’s competitive funding environment branding, or communicating the character or purpose of an organization, is more important than ever.Developing or revamping a non-profit’s brand can have many benefits. Some of the most significant include increased donations and membership. Given this, can any non-profit afford not to do it? Following are five reasons why branding just can’t wait.Reason #1: Branding Instills DisciplineAny branding effort should begin with a careful analysis of whether an organization’s mission is truly aligned with its activities. Is the organization delivering on its promises? If it isn’t, it has a big problem. Non-profits that have strong brands do what they say and say what they do. A branding effort can help a wayward organization correct its course.Reason #2: Effective Branding Improves ClarityPotential funders and members are more willing to donate time and money to organizations they understand and support. A non-profit with a strong brand will have an easier time communicating its mission and value.Reason #3: Branding Increases QualityOrganizat
Workplace violence victim: Anyone who has been injured, harmed, or who has suffered in some way due to acts of another while on the job or due to job related factors.
Victims are not only those who are the direct targets of a violent act. They may also be those who innocently witness the act. For example, someone who witnesses a verbal or physical attack on a co-worker may suffer emotionally, mentally or physically as a result of what they saw. Victims may also be the unfortunate innocent person who is just at the wrong place at the wrong time.
Types of violence: Among the types of violent acts committed in the workplace, the following are the most common:
Hitting
Squeezing
Pinching
Scratching
Twisting of limbs
Biting
Shooting
Stabbing
Stalking
Property damage
Rape
These are very traumatic experiences for the victims. According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, the above listed incidents resulted in victims taking 3-30 days off of work. The violent episode impacts virtually every aspect of the victim’s life. Because of the far-reaching effect on every aspect of the workplace, the problem must not be taken lightly.

A chart of accounts is defined as a list of accounts used to categorize the financial transactions of a business. But if set up with thought it can be one of your most useful tools in analyzing your business. A chart of accounts usually consists of five areas – Assets, Liabilities, Equity, Income and Expenses. Some companies segregate their transactions into the additional segments of Cost of Goods Sold, Advertising Costs, General and Administrative Expenses, Other Expenses, Other Income, and Taxes. But by designing your chart of accounts with the financial analysis of your company in mind, you will be able to see just where your profits are coming from and where your expenses need to be examined.By setting up income accounts for each department or segment of your business you will get a view of which areas are working for you. And by breaking out your expenses, both direct and indirect, within these income areas, you will also see which areas are most profitable. For example, if you are in the business of general contracting, you might build custom homes, do remolding, rehab older buildings and incur warranty costs. Wouldn’t it help you if you knew how much income was coming in from each of the services you provide? And how much profit each of the areas was bringing into the company? If you are lumping warranty costs into general expenses then how do you know how much it is costing you? In this example, you would want to set up an i

All larger companies and all those who have been in the market for several business cycles are prone to an (identity) crisis. Corporate identity and the product of the company are related. This is quite important when dealing with change.In his book – “let’s make things better,” Marcel Metze writes about the Philips culture which is centered around engineers on one side and salesmen on the other; some how these two groups keep the organization in balance.For those of you how know Philips know that this company “makes things,” it operates in consumer electronics, appliances, medical systems or in general in a wide area of products that require a design (which is sales centered) and engineering (which is product centered).Philips is a company that is more than hundred years old and has survived many crises. Currently ABN AMRO is struggling with some kind of a crisis. One of the problems the company is dealing with is that it is too large for the Netherlands and too small to be a world player.There is a big difference however between both companies. One (Philips) is a producer and ABN AMRO a financial institution, a bank. Cultural-wise both companies are of course quite different too. Where a producers’ culture is strongly based on a tangible product with which employees can identity themselves easily, a financial company lacks such a tangible product and requires more effort to build a cultural identity. This makes that a f
Unique phenomena are the growing numbers of workers who tend to define who they are by their jobs. This presents challenges for you as the employer when conducting reviews. Since the review or appraisal is part of your company process, an employee may view this as a personal judgment and feel angry or resentful.
And an employee who is unexpectedly fired may seek revenge upon those who terminated them. Some employees return months or years later to seek revenge.
Societal Factors
Much of what we all see in the media today is violent in nature. The underlying message seems to imply approval of violence in our society.
Weapons are also more available than in recent years. And drugs and alcohol play a role in violent situations.
As violent acts become commonplace, society becomes desensitized to the violence. And violence becomes more acceptable. This impacts everyone at work, in the community, and the home. It then becomes the responsibility of every worker to help prevent violence in the wor
