Personnel management: the importance to a pany of having wellmotivated staffFirst of all, having wellmotivated staff ensures better productivity. When an employee is highly motivated, there should be nothing to prevent him from devoting himself to the job. He will be very proactive to his responsibilities. This will significantly reduce wasted time and effort, which in turn can enhance productivity and overall performance. Second, I think a wellmotivated staff will show greater loyalty and mitment to the pany since a high level of motivation usually is a result of satisfaction with the job and the firm. Company loyalty in turn will greatly reduce turnover level and help retain the best brain needed by the firm. Finally, if everyone is very motivated at work, staff morale in the firm will also be boosted. Just imagine if everyone around you is so driven and enthusiastic, how can you possibly be immune to that atmosphere? We are most likely to make the most of our talents and achieve our personal best in such an environment. That’s all. Thank you.B.

Secondly, we should ask ourselves the aim that makes us purchase or rent premises. Do we want to set up our headquarters for a longterm investigation which will definitely need us to purchase buildings or just build a branch for a shortterm project which requires only some rented houses? After all these careful studies we can finally make our decision.C. Sales: how to ensure that price levels for new products are set appropriatelyFirst, we should consider the cost of our new products before we put them into the market. The price level we should set at least includes all the cost and investment and makes us gain some margins. Second, we should carry out an investigation or market research in the target market to see what price level can be accepted by our potential customers. We will also have to study the consumers’ habits and the popularity of our new products in the target market. Only through these prehensive investigations can we ensure the appropriate price levels of our new products.PART 3A.
