The aim of this visit is to know the procedures, standards, organization and way to manage a fast food restaurant like this, we can say one of the most important around the world.

Within the tour we saw step by step from bodegfas storage and cold rooms, preparation of soda, standards for the cooking of food, to the order of the empeadoas and recreational space. We could also ask different questions on how to ran the place, myths about food, and specific details. at the end we were invited to take a survey, share a video and select any dish in your menu without cost.

H A C C P

The hazard analysis and critical Control points (HACCP or HACCP, for its acronym in English) is a systematic preventive process to ensure food safety, logically and objectively. Be applied in food industry although it is also applied in the pharmaceutical, cosmetic and in all types of industries that manufacture materials in contact with food. In it are identified, evaluated and prevent all risks of contamination of the physical, chemical and biological products throughout all processes of the supply chain, establishing preventive and corrective measures for their control to ensure the safety.

In 1959 he started the development of HACCP, being the pioneers of the same company Pillsbury together with NASA and laboratories of the United States Navy. The initial process was a system called modal failures and effects analysis (FMEA), whose utility lies in the study of causes and effects that produce.

The HACCP was born with the objective of developing systems that provide a high level of assurance about the safety of food and replace the time quality control systems based on the study of the end product not contributing too much security. At the beginning your application did not have much success and the impetus given by the administration of drugs and food (FDA) had no impact. In the years 80 institutions worldwide boosted its application.  Including the World Health Organization.

 STRATEGY CLOCK

 

Bowman's Strategy Clock is a model used in marketing to analyse the competitive position of a company in comparison to the offerings of competitors. It was developed by Cliff Bowman and David Faulkner as an elaboration of the three Porter generic strategies. As with Porter's Generic Strategies, Bowman considers competitive advantage in relation to cost advantage or differentiation advantage. Bowman's Strategy Clock represents eight possible strategies in four quadrants defined by the axes of price and perceived added value. The resulting star shape is reminiscent of a clock face, giving this tool its name.

 

 

 

 

 

 

VALUE \ PRICE	LOW PRICE	MEDIUM PRICE	HIGH PRICE
HIGH ADDED VALUE	Hybrid Low cost base and reinvestment in low price and differentiation	Differentiation Perceived added value by user, yielding market share benefits or allowing price premium	Focused differentiation Perceived added value to a particular segment warranting a premium price
MEDIOCRE ADDED VALUE	Cost leader	\ | / -- * -- / | \	Raise prices to get higher margins. Works in de facto industry standard position. Risk losing market share to competitors.
LOW ADDED VALUE	Segment specific	Increased price & low value Risks losing market share; only feasible in monopoly position.

Mandela believes that I could unite the country through a universal language: sport. He decides to support the rugby team when it takes part in the World Championship in 1995, despite their little chance of winning.

 

RELEVANT SCENES OF LEADERSHIP

·        ·        Choice of the President

In 1995, in South Africa, they choose democratically President Nelson Mandela; This becomes a leader by the followers have in large quantities and Democrat leader because thanks his fans through democracy, becomes President.

·        ·        Meeting with the staff the first day in office as President

He is a President that develops much human and honest communication with its staff, example taking into account small details, waving to everyone or remembering things from his subordinates to give him confidence.

This shows up as a leader in many aspects, in addition to the above, he meets with his new team to arrive in a more humane way and gain confidence; It explains briefly and clearly that you need them as a team that develops the most abilities and justifies them by mentioning them the aim where you have to get.

·        ·        Difference of bodyguards

In his quest to unite the people in their differences, it starts with little things like join two groups of different skin color so that they work together as a team and begin to give an example to society.

·        ·        Presence at the meeting to decide the future of the sport

The President is angry because the Board of Directors of sports brings together a group of people to discuss the future of the Springboks team (Rugby - sport), since always have hated it for different reasons such as the difference in the color of the skin, because they always lose and carry colors representative of his country.

Decides to become at this time a leader autocrat positive if people do not follow him, just as he is the Chairman and you can do it; without however it what you looking for is people to change their way of acting for a better country.

Despite the fact that his assistant tells him that he can risk his leadership, he contradicts you explain to him that a leader ceases to be when not it risks a goal to meet; that no matter big facts, if small is alcazar greater success after the great.

He refers to this peacefully and explaining to his approval, is to manipulate them to get the facts he considers good, and is it; the minority of the inhabitants of the country are white and are against the ideals, but love that sport, by what the President decides strategically supports the team and win the trust of whites, this being the only connection he considers effective.

Although only gets 10% approximately of total votes, stays lively and asserts that it is profit, at least someone believes in what he says and that is good to have minorities, more toun if they have great power over the other territories. It a strategy rather than policy, human.

·        ·        Dressing room, after a lost game.

In Rugby is Germany 42 and South Africa 20. At the end of the game all the team discouraged by the loss will dressing room, the wizard offers beers but they are totally annoying. The captain tries to cheer them giving a beer to each to provide and encourage them with a few encouraging words to promise never to fail; discouragement is so large that it ends with a violent reaction by pulling beer, everyone follows them. For better or for worse is a leader.

·        ·        Guardian back Guide to the captain of the Rugby team

While guardian of President back Guide to the captain of the Springboks (Rugby) says you that likes to follow the President, that is a leader because he does not make them see invisible as is the case with other former Presidents, and that he remembers important data, when you have the opportunity to use those data to ask or make a gesture of gift that makes them know that it is for them.

·        ·        The captain of the team taking tea with the President

The Chairman asked the captain what is their philosophy of leadership and this responds to inspire his team the tries to lead by example, but the President explains that it is more difficult to motivate them and that sometimes the work of others helps to motivate the rest. The captain also tells that it inspires them with a song before a game, the same as always.

The President asks him to be inspiration that motivates the rest of the team and to be able to get the win so everyone join in the same language.

·        ·        Motivation of the team

The President developed a series of activities which, together with Captain, help the team inspired and back to believing in them, for example to play with children from very humble people, write a poem to the captain, learning the names of all players and congratulate them one to one on a visit to one private training, among others. This has a double meaning and is the nation sits together for a reason.

·        ·        Bodyguards play Rugby

While the President on his part and the players in the Springboks team on the other are taken the time to watch the game between two different teams, where he who wins will play with the Springboks; the guardian backs carrying not (black and white) playing Rugby as a great team. The President makes the proviso that is precisely what he was looking for support to the team that the nation and put aside differences.

·        ·        Last game, decisive the winner of the 1995 Rugby World Cup

In this scene we see two types of participatory leadership approach, on the one hand President Nelson without being directly within the game practice the motivation to achieve and against splitting see to the captain of the springboks that apart from motivate with all of their efforts until the end and at times more difficult; also it gives the example participating and showing their great motivation to serve it to the other members of the team.

 

MY OPINION ABOUT THE FILM

The film shows the development of all types of leadership in different characters, for example, we can say that President Nelson Mandela has on different occasions all types of leadership according to the occasion; It also enables others become the leaders; This means that apart from being an excellent administrator is also a great leader of the 21st century.

This great character teaches the development of a good administrator because it seeks the common good, has control, scope of control unit, delegated functions according to performance, division of labor and support chain; all these aspects are traditional principles of administration. The functions of administrator from plan strategies to the same control develops in the same way. Finally, within management skills, human relations skills, develops perfectly without leaving behind the others.

Mr. Mandela is also a clear example of leader today, as we highlight above, because it develops a series of activities that give it such a title, such as: Guide, delegate tasks, participate, has followers, well chosen by them, and develops their influences, compassionate, talkative, and dedicated. Among its limitations as current leader we see the balance of life and work.

Among its strokes of personality we see that it has confidence in itself, flexibility, sensitivity to others, stability and intelligence. Within the strokes that maintain the leadership we can say that it complies with all (power, membership, and achievement)

I personally conclude that the film is very interesting, but more than that leaves a number of lessons that must be met to be better, reach goals and meet the goals both in volver life and work. It is certainly one of the best films of example where motivation can turn the tide of what is believed to be impossible.

 

I am the master of my fate, I am the captain of my soul...

Nelson Mandela
