HI6005 Organisations in a Global Environment | Theory of Taylorism

The example is how Ford is able to work towards the enhancement of growth potential of car manufacturing through properly assessing the different individual parts that are important for building the auto-mobile from small to large components.

2: The applications of the theory are determined with Taylorism that includes the consideration of call centers with certain extent. Here, the operations are divided into the different sectors with work divisions that are done depending upon the employee expertise and the other job roles. This can easily be assigned for the employees, as per the requirements.

The less time consumption and the attractive packages for the employees are considered to be improving and promoting the company at a larger scale (Lackner, 2017).

3: The industries need to work with handling the applications and the relevant ideas. The management is introduced through a century ago, where the principles are then coined with long lasting effects (Holcombe, 2018). The work division with rewards that are given for the employee hard ware and introduction techniques are considered to be the golden rules for handling the ventures of startup. The applications and the utilization of the same can lead to guarantee of success growth as well.

The introduction factors include the less consumption of time and understanding the introduction to assembly line. There are requirements which focus on how the workers are able to pull the car through the workstation one after the other (Waring, 2016). It allows them to work with the different perspectives where the employees are attracted for applying at the company at a certain pricing. It works with handling the saving of time and then reducing efforts of the workers if there has been adoption of the support and not only having any tangible benefits. CEO of FedEx when interviewed held the leading business with taking care of the employees to handle the business standards. 100% productivity is maintained with security to check on the workforce with ensuring about the delegation of responsibilities. It also leads to handling the productivity with employee attrition.

Thomas Friedman on Globalization; 3 Eras of Globalization; World is flat

1:Friedman, with flat world holds the platform where there are no barriers and people can easily work on communicating with easy collaboration across the boundaries. It has been seen that there are certain issues with the hazards of the living in the flat world of Globalization 3.0. It includes:

1. The business ethics with reducing the freedom of organization. The example is related to handle the company shifting in a developing country mainly for the reduction of costs.
   
   
2. There are different people working on the different thoughts (Friedman, 2017).
   
   
3. There are no major boundaries set for the people who can easily do what they want to. It includes the creation of the rules for proper trading purposes as well.

The major problems comes with the living in the flat world of globalization. Hence, there are failures related to the strategic standards with aggressive localization as well. The multinational firms seem to be working on the choice to make and wait for the emerging markets like India and China. There are instances to hold the belief for the retail environment in China with quick emergence.

2:Yes, I completely agree with the iron rule of Friedman which highlights about how the flat world can do what needs to be done and it is done by the individuals only. With the advancement of the technologies, the people can easily work on what they want (Eriksen, 2014). Here, the example is about Southwest Airline that tend to start and work on the website setup where the people are going to download and handle the printing of the bar-coded boarding passes as well. The individuals need to come with the ticket agents and then people might be able to learn about the new things and what one likes or dislikes effectively.

3:The statement is based on the forms with countries who are globalized from 1400 to 1800. Here, Friedman opinioned about the year of 1453 which puts into the trading routes for risks as well. The European nations also work on establishing the sea route areas with Asia working on the diminishing of the cost structure analysis (Giudici et al., 2018). It works on handling the era with the multinational companies working on handling the exchange of goods with capital set through the geographical boundaries. These are important to spread some infectious diseases with recognition of the second risks after there is a second era.

Conclusion

The discussion has been done for Friedman and Taylorism in the two blogs above where the globalization has been a major factor of concern. It highlights about the techniques and the problems which needs to work with competitive markets, cultivation of infrastructure, education and the governance. Friedman then believes to understand the economic performance which is important for adopting the global cultural practices.
