During this section I learned that there are different types of decision making roles which are entrepreneur, disturbance handler, resource allocator, and negotiator. In the military we operate under a vertical management which is also known as top-down management. This is how orders are brought down to the lower enlisted Sailors and Marines. The flow in which orders are passed down is Commander 2nd Marine Expeditionary Force, 6th Regiment Command, 3d Battalion 6th Marines, Senior Enlisted, than finally down to the lower enlisted. I also learned that management is getting things done through the people around you. I can agree with this because in the Navy this is what we do on a daily basis. We take tasks that need to get done. We break them down and them divide them amongst the Sailors we work with.

This meme describes how the Navy middle management is. They take what tasks are given to them and make the lower ranking people complete them and they never work.

This is an example of a top-down management pyramid. The military operates on this through their rank structure.

In the Navy we have rules set in place to protect Sailors who are trying to do the right thing by reporting the people doing the wrong thing. Even though we have these rules people do not like whistleblowers which is not fair to those who are doing the right thing.

In the Navy we take pride in the amount of diversity that we have to offer. Where I work their is not only one race or sex their are men and women of all different backgrounds of life that come together to accomplish the goal that the Navy has set forward. In fact my unit is the first unit in which female Sailors and Marines are in a victor unit. A victor unit is a unit that has a high chance of going to combat and conducting door-to-door raids and strikes on the enemy.  I learned that with diversity comes challenges and obstacles that we face.  There could be a lack in communication because of the vast amount of culture that we have in our workplace. Work style and quality can also play a factor in the workforce when having diverse employees.
In this lesson we learned about whistleblowing. This is when an employee tell on someone who has did something wrong. In The Navy we have the same standards in place. This ensures that when someone tells on someone doing the wrong thing that nothing will happen to the person doing the right thing.

This shows that the military is very diverse in the members that we have. Diversity is what makes the military such a strong brotherhood bond that cannot be replaced.

Globalization is something that will help grow and create a strong foundation to any company as a whole.

# data[].attributes.body
When I think of global competition I think of a monopoly. This is because with reaching your business out to a global level you are opening up your bus.ness to a greater margin of profit!

# data[].attributes.body
In this session I learned that there are four different basic functions of management and those are planning, organizing, leading, and controlling. Planing is very important to management. I use planning in my everyday work ethics in the Navy. I plan the training for the weeks to come. Organizing is something that I do everyday. With all of the tasks that are passed down I like to organize them by most important to least important. Global Competition is providing a service to everyone all around the world. This in return will increase your margin ow growth and profit!

As a junior enlisted in the navy I feel as if we have accepted not know all of the information that goes behind the planning of events. This is not okay and I thing the military needs to change that.

# data[].attributes.body
I learned that planning provides a guide for action, improves resource utilization and allows flexibility. In the military time is everything. The more time you have the better. When you have a lot of time you are able to create a better planning for the action you are trying to complete or get done. There are two different barriers to decision making and those are informational barriers and circumstance/time related barriers. In the military we are always given only half of the information. When I become an Officer I will pass on all of the information to my Sailors to ensure that they know the same information that I know. This will eleminate the filling of the employee being felt left out or not important it will also promote trust within the organization.

# data[].attributes.body
When planning and decisions are happening in the military they rarely every listen to what the worker bees or junior sailors have to say about any of the events.

Organization structure and Process(unit 5)

In this chapter I learned about a hierarchy and the way it is used. Before this chapter I did not know what a hierarchy was. Now that I know what it is I understand the meaning of it and realized that we use this system in the military. i believe that this has a direct link to the top-down management style learned about in the first unit or chapter. In the Navy I think that we have a great team work structure that has been embarked on us at boot camp. If you have a successful time then the organization will do better as a whole and accomplish more. Employee empowerment is another big thing in the Navy. If you make your Sailors feel important than they overall quality of work will be improved. Most times in my experance in the Navy they give us little power and thing that if we are not the same rank that they are better.

I learn that communications is a way of conveying a message from one person to another. Communication does not just have to be oral, but can be visual, signs, or even written. There are many different barriers that can affect the way someone communicates. Some of these are technology, distance, language, and even a knowledge barrier.

Communication is a continuous process that needs a lot of practice to master.

This is trying to say that in the navy they work us so hard sometimes that we do not have time for anything else. This is also trying to show that the Navy sometimes has bad leaders that do not care about those who are lower on the ranking scale.

# data[].attributes.body
Leadership is very important in the Navy. This is so important to use that we even are graded on this on a year evaluation report. I learned that leadership and management are on two different spectrums of the scale. Leadership is influencing and inspiring others to achieve something that is they thought was beyond their reach. Although in the Navy we have good leadership and bad leadership you have to make the best of what you have. We like to joke around about the bad leaders we have had and take from their mistakes and improve our leadership qualities for those around us. Management is micromanaging someone to make sure the task is done. Motivation is the key factor in what drives Sailors or employees to push through and see that their efforts are going unnoticed.

On the right we have a 5 step process that I learned in my Fleet MArine Force training and it is known as IAMIS. The first step is Identify the hazard and this is one of the most important steps in finding out a problem.

# data[].attributes.body
When trying correct an issues within an organization I learned that identifying the problem is the first step. This is because if you do not know the problem then how are you going to fix the issue and better serve those around you. I will take this and use it in my day-to-day work within the Navy. This will better equip me with the tools needed to solve a problem. I learned about the Just In Time(JIT) method. I beleive this is a great benifit ro companies because it allows them to save money in the long run, but this could also hurt a company if they do not have reliable vendors that will deliver to them.

# data[].attributes.body
In the Navy reenlistment is something that is very big. A lot of Sailors do not reenlist because their chain of command is bad. They did not help them or even care about them and made them feel let out or forgotten.

# data[].attributes.body
The Just In Time process is a process that is very challenging for companies to master. This process only has inventory on what is needed and not a lot of room for reserve consumables.
