Summary Introduction

To determine:

The implications of the manager and the communication from the given cases.

Introduction:

JR is a co-founder and the President of the organization A, which is involved in developing games. She found that her employees and she herself were engaged in putting down the emails in the inbox ahead all other things being worked on. She thus decided only to check her email for four times a day and to further turn off the notification of her email.

In another case, Tan executive of WS which is a global public relations company had spent over a year to prepare his employees to “wean” the email systems. Thus, his goal was to dramatically reduce the email which employees send and receive. For this, he established the firm’s interoffice communication system to develop an internal social network for the communication process. In yet another case Thierry Breton is the head of one of Europe’s largest IT firm - Atos. This company announced a policy of zero-email which was to be replaced with services such as Facebook and Twitter.

High Supply Risk: Climate change is disrupting major rice-producing countries like Thailand and Vietnam. Limited global trade availability (only 7-10% of total production is exported). Currency fluctuations, freight costs, and government policies further threaten supply stability.       2.

Thailand's rice industry, which accounts for about a quarter of the world's global trade of rice, is facing a climate crisis due to frequent extreme weather events. The intensity and inconsistency of rain in 2021 has compromised the production of Thailand's most important crop, causing market turbulence, food security concerns, and leaving millions of Thai households facing economic difficulties. The industry is highly vulnerable to climate change, with Thailand ranking ninth in the world on the Global Climate Risk Index. Timing is crucial in rice growing, but the current climate conditions are making it futile. Climate change is expected to exacerbate inequalities, with rice production potentially increasing in irrigated areas while being stunted in rainfed regions. By mid-century, Thailand could expect a more than 10% decline in its overall rice yield, affecting regional food stability. Thailand, the world's third-biggest rice exporter, has struggled to regain its position as the…
