Week 5 Discussion Forum

Important Note: You need to participate in class discussions and activities each week. Your participation is an evidence that you are attending classes in order to continue to maintain your F1 visa status. Simply logging in and do nothing is not enough to meet this requirement. Consistent absence and lack of participation will result to automatic withdrawal from the course.

Each Week, topics for discussion will be found in the discussion area of the course. In-depth discussion is an essential part of online learning, and is also an important factor in your grade as well.

A minimum of three (3) posts is required for each week. Each post is required to be a significant post. Just agreeing or disagreeing with a student is not a post. Neither is asking a question.

• Significant posts are at least 300 words and require some information from the text, academically reviewed papers, some significant commentary that requires knowledge of the subject matter, a web link to an article or other source in order to be accepted
• Significant posts on all your responses to your classmates’ postings should be at least 150 words and require some information from the text, academically reviewed paper, some significant commentary that requires knowledge of the subject matter, a web link to an article or other source in order to be accepted.
• Provide appropriate APA in-text citations and references.
• You must participate in all discussion topics.

The instructor will determine if a post meets the criteria of a significant post.

Cutting and pasting an article is not a significant post.

The grading scale for discussion is as follows:

Original Discussion:

Your original post (direct response to the discussion topics/questions) is worth 20 points.

Participation (responding to your classmates’ postings):

2 significant posts (5 points each) = 10 pts

1 significant posts              = 5 pts.

No significant posts           =  0 pts.

Each week stands on its own. Thus, you cannot make-up points from a previous week. Please make every effort to participate in all discussions.

Read Four (4) academically reviewed articles on Cyber Security and Risk Management and complete the following activities:

(Wikipedia articles will not be accepted. Professor will check originality of all posts).

1.     Summarize all four (4) articles in 300 words or more. Please use your own words. No copy-and-paste

2.     Base on your article review and the assigned reading, discuss the relationship between Cybersecurity and risk management.

3. As an IT manager, discuss how you will use the concepts discussed in the four articles in the management of IT risks within your company.

Please do not create your own link. Respond directly by clicking to my link.

Please use APA throughout. 

Post your initial response no later than day 5 (Friday September 29). Please note that initial post not completed on the due date will receive zero grade. See class syllabus for late assignment policies.

Between Friday (9/29) and Sunday (10/1), read and respond to at two (2) of your classmates. In your response to your classmates, consider comparing your articles to those of your classmates. Below are additional suggestions on how to respond to your classmates’ discussions:

· Ask a probing question, substantiated with additional background information, evidence or research.

· Share an insight from having read your colleagues’ postings, synthesizing the information to provide new perspectives.

· Offer and support an alternative perspective using readings from the classroom or from your own research.

· Validate an idea with your own experience and additional research.

· Make a suggestion based on additional evidence drawn from readings or after synthesizing multiple postings.

· Expand on your colleagues’ postings by providing additional insights or contrasting perspectives based on readings and evidence.

Explore your social organization’s activity over the last week. Address the following questions:

• How could your social organization benefit from tracking metrics on their social page(s)?
• Which metrics should your social organization pay particularly close attention to? Explain why.
• How can your social organization use the metrics and/or analytics  provided by the social media platforms to address audience feedback?

 Organisation. Reflective writing aims to get you to think about and understand your learning experiences. Individually you are expected to reflect and evaluate ways in which you understand the academic/practical aspects of the topic. This section requires you to reflect on the concepts and theories in this subject. It is often helpful to apply and illustrate the knowledge to your own experiences or to an organisation that you are familiar with. The process will help you to better understand yourself and your capabilities. More specifically you are expected to address: • Describe objectively what happened – answer the question ’what happened?’ • Interpret the events – consider why they happened in the way they did. Explain what you saw and heard; your new insights; your connections with other learning; your feeling; your hypotheses and/or conclusions – answer the question ‘what might this mean?’ • Evaluate the effectiveness and usefulness of the experience – make judgements that are clearly connected to observations you have made – answer the questions ‘what is my opinion about this experience?’, ‘what is the value of this experience?’,’ why do I think this?’ • Plan how this information will be useful to you – consider in what ways might this learning experience serve me in my course, program, future, life generally – answer the question ‘how will I transfer or apply my new knowledge and insights into the future?’ Topics we got in lecture: Team management, conflict in managing and developing skills to lead team. We have to write 1500 words As a reflective journal based on our own experience how while managing team we faced conflicts and then how we overcome and lead our team. Just a generic information required. No, referencing .

Amazon case study: Amazon Under Fire

The following is a reproduction, with some paraphrasing, of a news article that recently appeared on Forbes.com. It highlights the difficulty corporations face in getting shareholders to reward their growth strategies. You should be aware, as hinted by this article, that although Amazon reports staggering revenue figures, its high cost margins mean that profits, when they are achieved, are relatively small.
Amazon under fire: What happens when sales growth isn’t enough?
The headline figure in Amazon.com’s 2014 second-quarter earnings report looked great — a 23% jump in sales from the prior year, to $19.3 billion — but the underlying figures for the unprofitable online retailer brought out the pessimists on Wall Street.
Amazon shares plummeted almost 11%, knocking $3.5 billion off the fortune of founder and CEO Jeff Bezos (now at $29.3 billion), after it lost 27 cents per share, much worse than the consensus estimate of 15 cents. The company’s perpetual lack of interest in turning a consistent profit and declining gross margins — which could fall further given the company’s ambitious investing in new areas — sparked concern among the analysts that watch the company.
“[Investors] are less patient than before regarding ongoing margin pressure,” wrote Canaccord’s Michael Graham, who rates the stock a hold and dropped his price target to $340 after Thursday’s results.
UBS analyst Eric Sheridan argues that Amazon can keep growing revenue at a 20% annual clip, but that it might not be enough for the market. He thinks investors “will struggle to buy the stock until more gross profit drops to operating income.”
…
Raymond James’ Aaron Kessler dropped his rating to market perform despite remaining bullish on Amazon’s long-term prospects, mostly because he expects shares to be stuck in a trading range “given continued high levels of investment combined with slowing unit growth (especially international growth).”
More of the same came from Barclays Capital analyst Paul Vogel. “Amazon has always operated at razor thin margins,” he wrote, “but rapid revenue growth and optimism on long-term margin upside has been able to sustain the stock.” That’s certainly true, as shares have returned almost 700% over the last decade. But Vogel worries that “[w]ith revenue growth decelerating and margins moving in the wrong direction, the stock could be in for a bumpy ride.”
…
Goldman Sachs’ Heath Terry offered a similar sentiment. Terry noted that the pressure on Amazon margins are “clearly testing investor patience,” but argued that Bezos’ focus on constant investments in areas like grocery deliveries will have a productive endpoint. “We believe, as they have historically, these investments will generate incrementally higher levels of revenue and operating cash flow growth, ultimately driving share price outperformance.”
At the moment though, confidence that Bezos knows best isn’t running at an all-time high. With Friday morning’s 10.7% loss to $320.42, shares of Amazon are down nearly 20% for the year (Schaefer 2014).

Question 2: From the case study, it appears that the CEO of Amazon, Jeff Bezos, might be receiving bonus company stock based on accounting outcomes (reported profit, for example, or share price performance). Let us assume for now that this is true. Would Jeff Bezos or Amazon’s shareholders prefer Amazon to use conservative accounting methods such as historical cost? Fully explain the likely preferences of both parties.
