Algebra is a branch of mathematics which deals with the use of symbols and equations to find solutions to problems. It involves manipulating variables in order to solve for unknown values and can be used to model real-world scenarios. As such, it plays an important role in everyday life as it allows us to make sense of complex phenomena and predict future outcomes (Khan Academy, 2021).
For example, algebra has been used by scientists create models which explain various natural processes from weather patterns to population growth. Additionally businesses rely on algebraic equations when making decisions about production levels or budgeting for marketing campaigns. On a more personal level people use algebra when making financial calculations like determining mortgage payments or calculating monthly expenses against income (Math Simplified 2018).
Overall, from engineering medical breakthroughs designing products people want buy––algebra plays essential role helping us make sense out world around us its potential applications are practically limitless .Thus we must continue explore new ways this powerful tool so everyone reaps its benefits even those who may not realize how key part their lives already .
As discussed by Bottazzo (2005), a company’s employees are one of its main groups of potential stakeholders. As a result, the satisfaction of employees is considered equal to the satisfaction of customers and shareholders, becoming an important element of an organisation’s strategic mission. This has created a paradigm shift of internal communication from one-way informing of employees, to a two-way communication with the inclusion of training, education and motivation.
The goal of internal communication is to achieve employee-company advocacy, with workers buying into the missions and values of the organisation and reflect those to other potential stakeholders. Therefore it’s necessary for Recticel to maintain the use of different platforms for everyday communication, including email, telephone, webinars and Skype – which allows a range of users to ‘dial in’ to a meeting and share computer screens. For a multi-national company, well-rounded communication from management is crucial – to offer information, support and a sense of community for plants that cannot be supported through emails or phone calls alone (Pinsky, 2015).
Recticel address this through an internal intranet system, RICK (Recticel Intranet Centre of Knowledge). RICK contains all of the documents, training and support required by individual plants to help run their business successfully. In a manufacturing environment, changes can take place rapidly – this method of instantaneous communication will assist individual plants to sync their business activities.
RICK boosts the company’s efforts of ‘on boarding’ – the introduction of new employees to the company. In a company of this size, the automation of an on boarding programme streamlines talent management initiatives and improves productivity long term. A personalised level of access to the intranet system facilitates a steady flow of well-timed information to new employees (Friedmann, 2012). There are instances where automation in the ‘on boarding’ and communication processes have their disadvantages. In large manufacturing companies like Recticel, where most employees work the assembly line rather than at a desk, not all employees have the same access to information and training.
