Discuss how telecommuting has worked to keep the business afloat

PERSUADE Them!

Your Board of Directors is not supportive of the concept of telecommuting. They believe that the advantages of being in an office environment far outweigh the conveniences of working from home. Now that COVID-19 and the stay at home order has forced people to work from home, you think now is the time to revisit the telecommuting concept with the Board.
Write a memo to the Board members persuading them to support you in your effort to make telecommuting a standard for your company. Here are some suggestions:
Discuss how telecommuting has worked to keep the business afloat
Provide any data supporting the advantages of telecommuting
Describe a plan for addressing and managing the concerns about telecommuting
Even though this is a memo – you still want to document any resources you use with the APA format.

She then says all three girls must play somewhere else in the room, each in a separate area. The girls begin to cry and say they want to stay together. Ms. Janice refuses to let them remain as a group.
Response 2: Ms. Shelia hears a commotion in the room she walks over and says, “It looks like there’s a problem here and you’re getting angry. What is the problem?” She listens to the girls explain. They each try to interrupt each other and continue fighting, but she makes sure all sides are heard.
After they have explained the situation, Shelia summarizes what she has heard. “It sounds like Simone wants to use the purple paper to make a card for her mom, and Destiny wants to make a picture. Simone, what do you think would be fair? Destiny, what do you think would be fair?” The girls arrive at a compromise all can agree to. Ms. Sheila stays close while they begin acting on the compromise.

Trader Joe’s Diversity Dilemma

In 2020, an online petition calling on Trader Joe’s to remove its “racist branding and packaging” from its stores had gathered thousands of signatures. The Change.org petition requested that the grocery store chain follow other food companies’ moves to adjust their branding and packaging to avoid racial stereotypes. Read this article here that was published about this issue. Then, read the company’s response here. Initially, Trader Joe’s said it would change its branding strategy for ethnic foods but sharply reversed course.
After reading the articles embedded above and noted below, engage in discussions with your classmates on the topic. Be candid, honest without concern for being judged, thinking differently, or sharing a contrasting opinion. Such would only enhance the discussion.
