Reducing Violence against Health Professionals

There is a rising trend of violence against healthcare professionals across the world, especially after the COVID-19 pandemic. Many countries report between 43-75% of professionals experiencing at least one incident in any annual survey. The most recent incident of doctors and healthcare staff in a Manchester City General Practice raised alarms. As the healthcare infrastructure and services are severely stretched following the disruption of 2020, there are more reasons for disquiet and frustration from the public. The media and political portrayal of primary care physicians as not caring enough to provide face-to-face appointments in the UK is believed to increase the public angst. There are protests from professional organisations but this is not heard by the public. In any violence prevention strategy, a multi-system approach is critical. While tackling misinformation is essential, so is the tackling the root causes, the waiting lists and a balanced information to the public. Political and organisational leaders need to be visible and vocal in explaining why the healthcare infrastructure is beyond breaking point. This will justify the additional resources needed and reduce the frustrations of the public, in need of care. There is also a vital need to help new doctors and nurses as well as all frontline staff in violence dissipation techniques, self-preservation. The Voluntary community organisations including those that support professional groups have a vital role to play. The NHS People Plan has recommended that VSCEs should join robust and reliable partnerships with Integrated Care Organisations in developing strategies and interventions. There is more work to be done. This article is a call for action and invites all VSCEs interested in the reduction of violence against staff to join with employing organisations to set up collaborative working groups with specific actions to implement. This is essential to reduce harm and reduce the demoralisation of an already burnt-out healthcare workforce.

ANALISIS KINERJA KEUANGAN MANCHESTER UNITED PLC SEBELUM DAN DI MASA PANDEMI COVID-19

This study aims to compare the factors that affect financial performance between Manchester United Plc and the similar industries by examinating financial ratios trends before and during the Covid-19 pandemic. The object under study was the Manchester United football club, while the industry average used the six biggest football clubs in the English Premier League, such as Arsenal, Chelsea, Liverpool, Manchester City, Manchester United, and Tottenham Hotspur. This study used a literature study method by collecting relevant data and information according to the topics discussed through various literatures. In addition, this study also using financial ratio indicators that were applied to the football industry to measure the financial performance of a football club. The data used were secondary data in the form of company financial statements from 2018 to 2020 from the company's official website. The results of this study conclude that Manchester United's financial performance tends to decrease,, especially in profitability due to the postponement of the competition during the Covid-19 pandemic. On the other hand, Manchester United's financial performance was stated to be good in terms of efficient management of employee payroll expenses and sponsorship contract revenues. Therefore, investors need to review the condition of football clubs based on financial ratios before making investment decisions on football clubs.

Systems leadership in the early years

This paper describes a new leadership coaching model that was delivered as part of Manchester city region's delivery of the Department for Education's Early Outcomes Fund. The coaching model explicitly paralleled the relational practices that are increasingly shaping early intervention policy and practice. Goodwin's theory of professional vision ( 1994 ) and Shotter's theorisation of with-ness ( 2011 ) provided the conceptual lens for this paper. The coaching facilitation aimed to afford the emergence of a new way of seeing leadership by scrutinising events of relational practice between participants in the coaching sessions (using video recording and review) and creating discursive practices using strengths-based analysis. We exemplify the coaching model using notes from a collaborative ethnographic evaluation of the six half-day group coaching sessions, surfacing how a new way of seeing silence may have seeded a new ‘object of knowledge’ in the group's emerging professional vision of leadership in the early years.

Influx of money and the Manchester City Success Story

The Premier League in the 21st century has been the most popular league in football history. Known for its jaw dropping matches and unpredictability, the teams in this league are quickly establishing themselves as some of Europe’s finest football teams. One such team is Manchester City. In 2008 Man City’s fortune was overturned when the Abu Dhabi United Group decided to purchase Manchester city under its subsidiary City Football group. The new investors provided city with much needed financial backing because of which they were able to improve their training centre, grounds and medical facilities and It also enabled them tobuy young and established talent. In this study we will attempt to establish a relationship between the money invested by City Football Group in Manchester City and try to relate it to City’s success over the last couple of years

A literature review of English Language Variation on Sociolinguistics

This paper discusses the sense of Accent. This article offers a summary of the various recognizable shifts in the pronunciation of local dialects and the general variations in the standard English of different primary speaking populations. Accent is the component of the local pronunciation dialect. Grammar and vocabulary are otherwise mentioned. Secondary speakers of English prefer to use their mother tongue's intonation and phonetics in English speaking. The English primary speakers exhibit great regional diversity. Some of them are easily recognized by key features, such as Pennsylvania Dutch English; others are darker or more ambiguous. Broad regions may have sub-forms, as shown below. For example, cities less than 10 miles (16 km) away from Manchester city, such as Bolton, Rochedale, Oldham, and Salford have distinct accents that all together form part of the larger accents of the province of Lancashire. Australia has a "General accent" emphasis on the other side of the continuum, which is basically consistent in tens of miles. The accents of English can differ enough to give room for misunderstanding. In certain varieties of Scottish English, for example, the pronunciation of pearl can sound like petal to an American ear.

Uncelebrated Sports Officials in the Middle East & Africa

<p>While research shows that investment in sports has started shifting from the North to South and West to East, it has been observed that the latter has been more active than the former as far as sports-related activity is concerned. This is especially the case with popular sports such as football where Middle East investments have been active from outright team purchases (e.g., Manchester City and Paris Saint Germain), stadium naming rights (Etihad Stadium and Emirates Stadium), sponsorships (FC Barcelona/Qatar Airways), and the prized hosting of the 2022 FIFA World Cup in Qatar. In all these, however, the regions have had very limited, if any, impact in terms accredited officialdom. This study highlights this a potential area for research with implications for Sports Management in particular, and Business & Management more broadly.</p>

ANALYSIS OF TECHNICAL-TACTICAL ACTIONS OF CENTRAL MIDFIELDERS

The observations were held in 2020-2021 during the competitive matches of the Champions League and Euro league Cups and European countries (England, Spain, Germany, Italy). The observations were made by analyzing the videos and TV broadcasting, during which T. Mueller ("Bavaria"), K. De Bruyne ("Manchester City"), B. Fernandez ("Manchester United"), L. Modric ("Real"), H. Mkhitaryan ("Roma") were observed in 4 matches each. During the research, we developed a viewing card, including all the technical and tactical actions used during the game. When studying them, the accuracy of the action was marked by plus (+) or minus (-) sign.
