Planned and market economies Introduction Human beings are solely responsible for sustainable development in the world’s business environment. Due to the need to solve environmental and human needs, governments and business sectors have utilized factors of production. Planned and market economies determine the organization of markets. Their major differences arise in the ways of management of factors of production.

      Switch codes: “How to Tame a Wild Tongue.”   Name Institution Date                   Describe a situation in your life in which you switch codes. What does the code-switching have on you? On many occasions, I find myself slipping into a different language or accent without notice or intent. However, I use code-switching intentionally for the following reasons. First, to fill a need or to help me communicate a given thought or concept effectively. On some occasions, I need to communicate in a foreign language and, in mid-conversation, realize that I do not have sufficient vocabulary to communicate. As a result, I automatically switch to another language, especially when I am tired, distracted, or upset.  This scenario is, however, very common when I command little vocabulary in one language as a bilingual (Heller, 2010). The second reason why I apply code-switching is to express solidarity with a given social group in order to establish a rapport during a communication process. When my audience responds similarly using the same switch, it…

      Organizational Speech         Name       Institution   Tutor’s Name   Date Organizational Speech A speech’s organization is one of the key factors that attract the audience’s attention or may keep the audience away from the speech (Mikkelson & Hesse, 2020). A well-organized speech provides the audience with what to expect at each level and gives the relevancies to what is expected of the speaker to talk about (Jernigan, et al., 2020). Studies have shown that a poorly organized speech may bore the audience, and only a few will wait for the main idea required (Mikkelson & Hesse, 2020). When preparing a speech, the speaker needs to identify the type of audience to address and study the audience’s likes and dislikes to ensure they remain relevant.
