Unit 1

This unit is about companies. It focuses on types of companies. Most large

corporations are public limited or joint-stock companies, which means that
shareholders who wish to invest in the company can buy and sell parts of the
company on the stock exchange. Many are multinationals with subsidiaries /səb
ˈsɪd.i.ə.ri/ and assets in various different countries and they generally engage in
mergers with other companies and acquisitions in order to expand. Besides, this
unit shows that choice plays an important role in determining company structure.
Through this unit , we know more about the company.
Unit 2
This unit is about leadership. It looks at the role of the leader. The role of a leader
is to inspire and motivate staff and to develop talent within an organization. It
focuses on the management style. The highlight is to use fear to manage talent. The
fact that it’s easier to use fear-based management in sport than in business.
Motivating talent through fear has both advantages and disadvantages, the
important is how to use, when to use, use with whom. In conclusion, the leader's
management style has a great influence on the efficiency /ɪˈfɪʃ.ənt/ and quality of
the work.

Unit 4.
This unit is about pay. It highlights executive /ɪɡˈzek.jə.tɪv/ pay. First of all,
through the keynotes I can see that CEOS and top senior executives are sometimes
referred to as fat cats because of the enormous pay packages and rewards they are
offered when joining a company. These may include details of salary, pension.
Next, in the article we can see that The late 1990s saw a trend, particularly in the
USA, towards rewarding executives with stock options and other performance-
related bonuses. This has become even more controversial since some top
executives continue to receive huge rewards despite poor efforts and poor results.
That all I can learn from the unit four
