The birth of India's reservation system may be traced back to the country's long-standing caste structure. In layman's words, it's about facilitating access to government jobs, educational institutions, and even legislatures for particular categories of individuals. These communities have historically been treated unfairly because of their caste identification. Because it is based on quotas, the reserve could be considered positive discrimination. Government policies, which are sanctioned by the Indian Constitution, govern it in India. William Hunter and Jyotirao Phule proposed the caste-based reservation scheme in 1882. The 'Communal Award,' given by British Prime Minister Ramsay Macdonald in 1933, established the reservation system that still exists today. The award established separate electorates for Muslims, Sikhs, Indian Christians, Anglo-Indians, Europeans, and Dalits. After months of deliberation, Gandhi and Ambedkar signed the 'Poona Pact,' whic...

The following are the two types of social groups: There are two levels of education: primary and secondary. A primary group is a small social group whose members have deep, personal, and long-term ties in which they share implicit items such as love, concern, and support. These are usually long-lasting groups characterised by members' concern for one another, with the relationship itself serving as the primary aim rather than achieving a specific purpose. They provide psychological comfort to those concerned by providing a source of support. As a result, primary groups (or their absence) play an important role in the construction of personal identity. Primary groups can be characterised as small groups of people like family, long-term relationships, crisis-support groups, church groups, and so on. In 1909, sociologist Charles Cooley, a member of the famed Chicago school of sociology, originally introduced the concept of the primary group in his book Social Organization: A Study of ...

Everyone plays at least one role, and many people play many roles at once. Students, sons/daughters, friends, and/or siblings are all roles that we as youngsters try to perform on a daily basis. On the one hand, tangible examples such as teacher, student, adviser, facilitator, examiner, examinee, freshman, mentor, tutor, and so on can be used to characterise roles in the context of learning. It can, on the other hand, be defined in a more abstract way: A role is a collection of behaviours, rights, and responsibilities that are periodically allocated to different people. While a person visits his or her parents, for example, he or she will be seen as a child; when he or she is at university, he or she will be seen as a student; and in debates, he or she will be seen as a facilitator to move the group forward- The function that one assumes is determined by the social situation and varies among societies. As a result, the person who assumes the function is given a set of expectations to a...

Organizational transformation is the shift of an organisation from one state of affairs to another. Organizational change can happen in a variety of forms and sizes. There could be a shift in a company's structure, strategy, regulations, processes, technology, or culture. The change could be years in the making or forced upon an organisation owing to a change in the environment. Organizational change can be abrupt and entirely transform an organization's operations, or it can be gradual and incrementally modify how things are done. Change means letting go of old ways of working and adjusting to new ways of working in all cases, regardless of the form. As a result, it's basically a procedure that involves good people management. There are many reasons for change, some of them are: technology, globalization, market conditions, organizational growth and performance etc.  However, one of the most frequent reason, apart from the ones mentioned above is change in workforce demogr...

Organizational culture can be called  a  term  accustomed  to describe the way people define the values, goals, and overall vibe of their office. Founders and HR leaders usually develop and evangelize the culture, but it’s a constantly changing, employee-powered concept. These values should resonate with employees and make them  want  their work matters and rolls into  a bigger  purpose. Organizational culture is both how organizations get things done, and why. It’s what makes the difference between a team of hardworking, happy employees and  a bunch  of grumpy strangers. Companies with strong organizational culture tend to be  the sort   that folks  dream of working for. These businesses have  a group  of values that don’t just  go on   a commercial   within the  kitchen. Rather, employees at these companies are  ready to  easily articulate what their company does and why  they...

Dove’s history starts out with the creation of soap. In fact, no other skin/beauty  care  brand today produces soap in such large quantities  as Dove does,  and also the   name  of Dove as a company has been tied in with soap-making from the very beginning. When  the company initially started  in 1957, Dove  started off  as a soap company that was unlike all  the other brands  of its time. Surely,  there have been  toiletry brands that were much older  and had  been far more established names than Dove, but the younger company managed  to face  out from  the remainder  with one simple characteristic: moisture. Dove quickly stood out from its competitors by producing soap that didn’t dry out skin but rather moisturized it. I t was absolutely  clear from  the start  that Dove was dedicated  to making   top quality  products for its consumers. I n...
