Hi, need to submit a 3250 words paper on the topic Views of Weber and Durkheim on Sociological Investigation. Till the mid-nineteenth century the study of societal structures was not recognized as a science. There was barely any effort to recognize the place of individual in the society and the former’s influence on the latter and vice-versa. There was little enthusiasm to raise questions and pursue answers relating to the society which is the unit of civilization. It was Weber and Durkheim who helped social science take a big leap forward by building elaborate arguments on the characteristics of societies, the factors and forces that hold them together, whether there are certain patterns that can be observed in societal evolution, the possible impact of such patterns, if any, on polity and economy, whether it is possible to codify them and what use this understanding could be of to the human communities. The biggest success of Weber and Durkheim was to draw the attention of the world to these issues.

Re: Jensen chemicals and hardware depot Dear Sir, I am writing this in regard to the status of the business as for the last couple of years, and the latest happenings mainly in the last year. On observing the financials of the company closely, there is a serious problem in the chemical divisions of the company that needs an urgent resolution. Currently, the department has debts accumulating to $740,000, and business seems not to be doing so well. Combining this with the $200,000 loss last year, it is evident that the section might adversely affect the entire company. In view of the projections, there is no much hope for any improvements. The markets are dwindling, leaving us almost stranded.

With the above in mind, I think it is wise we sell off the chemicals department, to safeguard the hardware depot. A personal valuation of the company puts it at roughly $500,000, which I think would be a good sales price for the business. Please look into this matter and consider taking the best decision.

Sincerely,

Nick.

The best way for a company to plan for unpredictable crises is to ensure that there is a crises management tactic put in place to deal with any unexpected occurrence. This may involve having an efficient communication plan. The best strategy to combat an online rumor is to come up with a fast and comprehensive rebuttal. A quick and consistent crisis response plan is essential for a company in responding to crises. Prioritizing stakeholders involves complete mapping to show the manner in which the stakeholders interlink, and the influence they hold on each other (Seeger, Sellnow & Ulmer 48).

Write 1 page thesis on the topic written business communication (original posting #1). Written business communication: Original posting The case identifies my initial actions into unethical practice. Results of the unethical practice have promoted further unethical decision that I should support or stop. Using software that I developed in another firm, even though with some modification, breached my obligation to protect the former employer’s property and allowing my current employer to incorporate the technology in the entire organization is another breach of ethical standards. I am faced with the option of being ethical at the expense of my job or acting unethically to protect my job.

I should try to resolve the conflict with my current employer by asserting the involved legal and ethical issues in the case for abolition of the intention to implement the technology. I should insist on a win-lose strategy in which I should be the winner because my position is right, as opposed to that of my employer (Singh, 2009). If the attempt fails then I should inform my previous employer of the case and at the same time seek legal protection for my job. While I recognize breach of my former employer’s intellectual property rights by using the software in my current organization, allowing the organization to proceed with the implementation undermines justice to my former employer. Virtue ethics, on this basis, requires my firm stand against implementation of the software by my current employer. My position against use of the software also does not justify my dismissal and this means injustice should I lose my job for doing the right thing. The situation therefore justifies my right to seek legal intervention against my dismissal (Brooks and Dunn, 2009).
