    The U.S. Department of Labor (Links to an external site.) (www.dol.gov (Links to an external site.)) is the agency of the U.S. federal government charged with matters pertaining to the American workforce. One of      its arms is the Bureau of Labor Statistics (Links to an external site.) (www.bls.gov (Links to an external site.)), which is responsible for the important tasks of collection, organization, and distribution of data concerning employment and work in the U.S. Every other year, BLS publishes the Occupational Outlook Handbook (Links to an external site.) (www.bls.gov/oco/ (Links to an external site.) ). The OOH describes for workers in a wide range of occupations what they do on the job, their working conditions, the training and education that they need, what they can expect to earn, and what their employment prospects are in the future. 

 

    In the wake of the most recent publication of the OOH (Links to an external site.), Shelly Schwartz of CNNfn (Links to an external site.) (http://cnnfn.cnn.com/2000/08/18/career/q_degreeeconomics/ (Links to an external site.)) posted an article about the job market faced by holders of degrees in economics. In it she discusses and summarizes some of the information provided by the OOH. She also provides a link to Inomics (Links to an external site.) (http://www.inomics.com/cgi/show (Links to an external site.)), an example of a site that caters to job-searching economists. Please go to the CNN (Links to an external site.) article and read through it, and then to the OOH (Links to an external site.) website. Once at the OOH site, click on the link for “A-Z Index” and find the listing for “Economists and market and survey researchers.” (Links to an external site.)(http://www.bls.gov/oco/ocos055.htm (Links to an external site.)) Once you have read through these sites, please answer the following questions:

a)    According to the Occupational Outlook Handbook, what do economists study and do?

b)      According to the CNNfn (Links to an external site.) article http://money.cnn.com/2000/08/18/career/q_degreeeconomics/ (Links to an external site.), what are the top three types of jobs for economics graduates?

Discussion The Nature of Managerial Risk As a manager responsible for the day to day operations

Discussion: The Nature of Managerial Risk

As a manager responsible for the day-to-day operations within your department, which might be sales, marketing, production, etc., you probably do not think much about the daily price of your company’s stock or the firm’s overall value if it is not publicly traded. However, your proposed projects can impact stock price or firm value in different ways. For example, if investors in your company perceive little value in plant expansion or an expensive equipment modernization program due to slowing sales, such a reaction will result in a stock price drop or a lowering of the firm’s overall value. What you propose as a manager for funding must be perceived as a program or project that supports overall organization strategy with minimal risk. Consider the Goodyear example in your course text reading this week (see pages 290-291), which focuses on a major investment in a new product—recapped tires. While this new product may have high stand-alone risk, note how and why that risk actually mitigates overall stockholder risk due to its diversification properties.

To prepare for this Discussion, consider your organization or one with which you are familiar, and its current riskiness. Develop an idea for a new product or service that has the potential to generate a good return on investment at reasonable or even high stand-alone risk but that has an opportunity to lower the organization’s overall risk.

Post by Day 3:

Develop an argument as to why your suggested project has the potential to reduce the organization’s overall risk. Be sure to identify at least two risk measurement tools used in the readings that you would deploy to measure the overall risk in the organization, and explain why your choices are appropriate for the situation.
