1) The US is a lot differently working wise compared to China, Hong Kong, and Taiwan.  I circled in on Chin compared to the U.S., with their sweatshops.  In China 482 million people are living on less than $2 a day, compared to the U.S. where minimum wage is $10 an hour. In the U.S., workers can form trade unions but in china, they have no freedom to do that.  There is rarely no maternity leave i  China, as well as no childcare facilities.  Workers in sweatshops often work 70 hour weeks compared to the U.S. average of 40.  One million workers were injured at work, while 20,000 suffered from diseases due to the unhealthy conditions.  U.S. workers vary a ton from sweatshops overseas.

2)A recent study by economists at the University of Warwick found that happiness led to a 12% spike in productivity, while unhappy workers proved 10% less productive.  Professor Andrew Oswald, one of three researchers who led the study, said companies that invest in employee support and satisfaction tend to succeed in generating happier workers. At Google, employee satisfaction rose 37% as a result of those initiatives which suggests that financial incentives aren't enough to make for highly productive employees.  Shawn Anchor, author of “The Happiness Advantage”, has found that the brain works much better when a person is feeling positive.

3) One company that  I found that operates successfully and humanly without sweatshops, is C&C California.  The clothes they sell are expensive, however, they make the clothes here in the U.S., under supervision, not in foreign sweatshops.  I chose this company because it is successful, the people high up in the company know that they are operating humanely, and that the company treats its employees well, unlike other company such as Nike.

Greetings! Class Activity 10/11

A handshake is an act of greeting by shaking ones hand with ones own.  In Japan, the common greeting for men and women as well is to bow when they greet someone, as opposed to  giving a casual handshake or a hug.  the proper depart is by doing the same. In Japan, the exchange of business cards is known as "meishi".  Carry your card in a professional manner.   Never hold it in your pocket.  This way, your cards will look clean and crisp, as it is a direct reflection of your company.  Offer your card with two hands, as it shows respect to the person you are meeting.  When receiving the card, damaging  it in any way is seen as very rude and disrespectful.  Once they hand it to you, always thank them and treat  the card with respect.

In Belgium, when you greet someone, regardless of gender or how well you know each-other, you kiss them on the cheek.  This shows a sign of respect.  When you depart, you do the same as a greet, a kiss on the cheek.  When you offer a business card, you give it to the reciever with either one, or two hands.  After receiving it, you keep it visible at all times.  This is the same in Belgium when you receive a gift.  You say thank you, and kiss on the cheek to the person who gave you the gift.

The country I researched for my theme park was Germany.  In Germany the currency is euro.  The exchange rate is one euro dollar is equivalent to $1.15 U.S. dollars.  this means that a children's ticket to the park would be $44.33 U.S. dollars.  An adult ticket would be $51.24 U.S. dollars. These are the prices for the park in the summer.

Chapter 2 Research

The 1970 Bhola Cyclone was a tropical Cyclone that occurred in East Pakistan (present day Bangladesh), and India's West Bengal.  Almost 500,000 people lost their lives due to this cyclone.  As a result, over 490 million dollars of damage occurred.  85% of homes were destroyed. Crops were destroyed. Many local small businesses were forced to shut down for good.  Some business in the area on the larger scale, were forced to close for the weeks after the event  but eventually some reopened for business as the cleanup process began to reach it's peak.  The storm surge devastated many of the offshore islands, wiping out villages and destroying crops throughout the region.  East Pakistan was forced to use whatever resources they had available to them which was very little.  Because of the lack of resources available, they had to borrow from India and Afghanistan. This storm affects today because the spot where this storm hit is not even owned by East Pakistan anymore, so therefore, current day Bangladesh has to pay for any damages that are still there that they want replaced.  The nearby vicinity and most of the villages were the only area's the was truly affected by the disaster.

Mini Research 1

 International influence in professional sports.  The New York Rangers have players that represent many different countries.  They have Pavel Buchnevik from Russia, Kevin Hayes from the U.S., Rick Nash from Canada, Oscar Lindberg from Sweden, and Marek Hrivik from Slovakia.

 My reaction to this is that it's awesome that the Rangers have players from all these different countries.  I did research and it showed that the Rangers have scouts on different regions across North America and Europe.   This is international business related because these scouts recruit players internationally for their business, the New York Rangers.  Marketing relates to this topic because the
Rangers advertise in countries where their players are from like the U.S, Canada and even European countries to get people to buy tickets to games or purchase merchandise from the Rangers themselves.  Overall, the New York Rangers are extremely influenced in international business.
