PHILOSOPHY OF MANAGEMENT IN BUSINESS ORGANIZATION

JOLLIBEE vs MCDONALDS
What are the names that come into your mind when someone asks you about
fast-food restaurants? Most probably, it would be McDonald's and Jollibee. These two
fast food chains have been in the business for a long time and up until now they are still
known to be rivals. Today, there are conflicts as to which is the better food chain.
Jollibee and McDonald's, two of the major food chains in the world, have many
similarities when it comes to their menu, services, and branches.
Jollibee and McDonald's have similar items in their menu. Some of which include
fried chicken, hamburger, and fries. Although they have similar items in their menu, they
have some items that the other does not have. For instance, Jollibee has items in their
menu that McDonald's does not have. Jollibee's famous sandwich, the Jolly Hotdog, is
one of the few items that McDonald's does not have. Others would include lumpiang
shanghai and arroz caldo. On the other hand, McDonald's also has items in their menu
that Jollibee does not have. McDonald's has their famous McNuggets that Jollibee does
not have. Others would include twister fries, hashbrown, and fish fillet burger. We can
see that there are slight differences between the two when it comes to the items in their
menu.
Jollibee and McDonald's have service that appeal to their customers, especially
to kids. Both food chains have programs in which they cater birthday parties for
children. Jollibee has its Jolly Kiddie Party and McDonald's has its McDonald's
Children's Party. Both of them aim to make your child's birthday party fun, enjoyable,
and memorable. Both food chains also have special meals for kids. Jollibee has its Jolly
Kiddie Meal and McDonald's has its Happy Meal. Both of them aim to help the kids
finish their food and at the same time enjoy the toys that come with the meals. Both
foods chains ensure the kids' happiness and satisfaction. We can see that the two are
similar when it comes to their services among kids.
Jollibee and McDonald's have many branches here in the country and in the
whole world. Jollibee originated here in the Philippines and is widespread in different
parts of the world. With its Filipino influence, Jollibee branches can be seen in the
United States, Saudi Arabia, Brunei, and Vietnam. On the other hand, McDonald's
originated in the United States and is widespread here in the country and in the whole
world. Today, McDonald's has more than 30,000 branches scattered in 119 countries
around the world including the famous McDonald's Taft branch. We can see that both
Jollibee and McDonald's are known all over the world and that is what makes them the
top two food chains in the world.
Jollibee and McDonald's have served over millions of people in over thousands
of different branches worldwide. They are both known to be the top two major food
chains in the world. Both have many things in common and both are loved by the
people. So who do you think is the better food chain? Jollibee or McDonald's? It all
depends on the person's taste and love for food.

JPMorgan Chase & Co. is one of the world's oldest, largest and best-known

institutions that have come together through the years to form today's company. We
trace our roots to 1799 in New York City, and our many well-known heritage firms

Hanover Trust Co., Chemical Bank, The First National Bank of Chicago, National Bank

economies. Adhering to each of these principles is how we will become the best and
most respected bank in the world. We cannot promise specific outcomes or risk-free
results. From time to time, we may fall short in our efforts and if that happens, we will
renew our commitment to these principles and re-double our efforts. What we can and
will promise is to be truthful and give honest assessments of our businesses and
prospects; act with integrity and honor; and do the right thing—not necessarily the easy
or expedient thing. We will work with fierce resolve to make this a company of which our
customers, employees, shareholders and communities can be proud.

communities - in good times and in bad times - and this strength enables us to

ANALYSIS ON CASE # 3 – FAST AD MAN

Case:
I’m an advertising copywriter who can complete a job in hours that my boss
expects to take days. This allows me to close my office door and do what I love; write
science fiction stories. If my boss knew, I’d be in trouble. He says he pays me for a full
day’s work. I say he pays me to do a particular task, and I shouldn’t be penalized for
doing it efficiently. Am I right?

Answer:
For me, unless you are getting paid by the hour you are working shall we say, if
you can complete your assigned task in eight minutes instead of eight hours then you
should be rewarded for what have you done not punished. Then, tell your boss that the
task you have been given was already done. He should alert his boss, making sure that
the boss realizes how swiftly and skillfully he’s done his job, and implying that an
efficient worker like him ought to be paid more than his co-worker, and should be given
a bonus for completing the task as early as possible. Also, he should ask the boss what
task to undertake next. Then, if the boss gives him some downtime, he’s free to write all
stories he likes.

ANALYSIS ON CASE # 5 – DO YOU TELL?

Case:
Out of town on business, in the hotel bar, I saw a good friend’s husband
entwined with another women. If I tell, my friend will be devastated and she might hate
me for it. If I don’t, I’m joining her rotten husband in conspiring to deceive her. Should I
tell?

Answer:
If I had to make a choice in this situation, I would confront the husband first. I
would talk to him and tell him to tell his wife about what he is doing. I would rather hear
that my spouse was cheating on me from my spouse rather than from another person,
such as a friend. If the husband refused to tell her, then I would tell her. I don't think the
responsibility is out of your hands until your friend finds out. If the husband does not tell
her, then I would tell her myself. The responsibility would not leave my hands until my
friend finds out. I would tell because I feel that if I don't I would be lying to her. If the
husband is getting serious with this other woman, the situation could become more
severe than if you did not tell. Say these two people are engaging in sexual activity that
could result in having a baby, which could almost certainly mean the end of that
marriage. So if you confront the husband and tell him to confess to his wife, then their
relationship may still be able to be saved. If no one tells and something like a baby
comes up one day, then the relationship may be doomed.
On the other side, telling your friend or talking to the husband may result in a bad
situation for yourself. The husband may become angry with you and may try to harm
you. Also, telling your friend may result in a loss of friendship if the friend gets mad at
you. Weighing out all of the options, I think that talking to the husband is the best way to
go.

ANALYSIS ON CASE # 7 – MOTEL SOAP

Case:
When we stay at motels, I bring the unused, wrapped soaps and shampoos
home to be passed on to a shelter for the homeless. My husband maintains I’m stealing.
I consider the cost of these items built into the charge for the room, and that they are
ours to do with what we wish. What is your opinion?

Answer:
For me, what you're doing isn't exactly stealing, but it is taking advantage. Taking
advantage for what it is free of charge. Yes, it’s true that the cost of that items are built
into the charge of the room your renting in but, if you truly want to donate to a homeless
shelter, you should donate from your own pocket, and your own money, not from
someone else's.
