Gender Distribution in Organizations
“Gender bilingual organizations” is a find of Avivah Wittenberg-Cox. She wrote a new book, “Because, like every author, I thought there was a book screaming to be written.” (1)
The book presents seven steps to building “bilingual’ organizations.”
One of the questions Avivah poses on the gender issue is: “how can you be sure to have hired the best candidates when you only recruit men?”

Flexibility in Employment Policy
Flexibility in in Employment Policy
Rapidly changing environment organizations require flexible employment policies to meet the needs of their business, The process of flexible employment policies can be described as the design, development and mainte¬nance of a system of coordinated activities in which individuals and groups of people work cooperatively under leadership towards commonly understood and accepted goals, and these activities can be easily changed according to environmental changes.
The process of flexible employment policies involves the grand design or redesign of the structure, but most frequently it is concerned with the organization of particular func¬tions and activities and the basis upon which the relationships between them are managed. The organizations are not static thing. Changes are constantly taking place in the organization itself, in the environment in which it operates, and in the people who work with. According to the recent surveys: “Some of the larger countries, such as Germany and Italy, have experienced a growth of more flexible forms of employment, while in France, Spain and the United Kingdom the growth of flexibility has been outpaced by the growth of “standard” forms of employment” (7th European Regional Meeting in Budapest, 2005).

Everyone Should Promote Free Markets and Sound Economic Public Policy
Most Americans do not concern themselves with economic matters, and they leave the decision-making up to the politicians and other folks that they feel are better suited than them, who better understand the issues at hand. Nevertheless, it is important for all citizens in the United States to learn a little bit about economics and understand how our business cycles work, our banking system works, how regulations work, and how a for-profit enterprise runs.
It makes sense to have a little bit of knowledge in both micro and macro economics. You see, everyone should promote free markets and sound economic public policy, and yet, there are far too many people that speak up even though they know when something is wrong.
