Week 4 Discussion 2 – Business Operations- Due by tomorrow at 8pm CST

This week, one of the areas you have been reading about is the importance of managing quality within an organization. Despite how efficient and low cost a business might be, if the quality of its product is low or its customer service is non-existent, it will not likely succeed in the long run. Consider what you have learned about making quality a part of the entire planning and implementation process. In particular, recall the approaches to quality improvement supported by Deming and Juran that were introduced in your reading.Compare and contrast the Deming and Juran approaches to quality improvement. Consult resources in addition to your textbook for more in-depth information on their philosophies of quality. If you wish, you may also do some outside reading and discuss Phillip Crosby as well.With that in mind: a 250- to 300-word statement that addresses the following: a selection of your colleagues’ postings. to or more of your colleagues’ postings in one or more of the following ways: to this Discussion in a few days to read the responses to your initial posting.

othello

Someone who appears in a work of literature is called a \”character,\” the same word we use to refer to those qualities of mind, spirit, and behavior that make one individual different from every other. The similarity of terms is not mere coincidence, for the creation of an imaginary character by author and reader is almost always based on some conception of human character and of individual differences.
Plays have a special relation with character because of the visual and concrete manner in which they portray people on stage. Plays must \”reveal \” character–that is. dramatize the kind of people they are by their own words and actions. Characters who appear on the stage or on the drama\’s page ultimately have to be credible in their own terms.
With these points in mind, choose one character from Othello,. and explain why that character is believable–explain why the character\’s personality, actions, and motivations are crafted in a way that readers and audiences may grasp the truth of the character\’s representation.
this should be a 5 paragraph essay, one intro, three body paragraph and one conclusion.
The writer can make this essay better with personal anecdote. Name someone who shows similar personalities as characters in Othello do.

History

Topic 1: Whether or not the Constitution supported the institution of slavery was a very controversial issue in the years leading up to the Civil War. Even many who hated the institution (for a variety of reasons) werent necessarily sure that slavery was unconstitutional, per se. Interestingly, the Constitution never uses the words slaves or slavery at all, even though those gathered at the original Constitutional Convention hotly debated the issue. This was intentional. Your job is to read between the lines and decide whether or not you think the Constitution at the time of the Civil War mostly supported or opposed slavery. There is no slavery article of the Constitution, so you will have to think carefully about what you read in the other articles. It will take some detective work, though I think you will find plenty of evidence from a careful reading. You must use specific evidence from the Constitution to back up you argument. Keep in mind that those debating slavery and the Constitution before the Civil War ONLY have the Constitution through Amendment XII (12)! Do NOT draw on any part of the Constitution past Amendment XIII (12) for evidence!
You can find the text of the Constitution here: http://constitutionus.com/.

Topic 2: Was Reconstruction a success, or a failure? You will evaluate this question from FOUR (4) perspectives: the Radical Republicans, Southern Democrats, former slaves, and your own opinion. In other words, how would each of those four groups feel about Reconstruction when the dust settled in 1877?

Any topic (writer\’s choice)
