Mission statements is basically is a statement of the purpose of a company, organization or person, its reason for existing. The mission statement should guide the actions of the organization, spell out its overall goal, provide a path, and guide decision-making.

The three company that I choose is Apple inc, Nokia, Sumsung. My first organization is Apple inc mission statement designs Macs, the best personal computers in the world, along with OS X, iLife, iWork and professional software.

IPHONE + IPOD BUYERS’ GUIDE After a slow and uneven 2011, Apple roared back in 2012, launching a wide array of significantly redesigned devices. The iPod, iPhone, and iPad families all saw major screen revisions, including two taller iPods, one elongated iPhone, and a quadrupled-resolution iPad. Then, just before the holidays, Apple debuted the 7.9” iPad mini, and replaced the 9.7” iPad again - just because it could. Going into 2013, the lineup looks almost completely different than it did a year earlier, except for three iPods that have been left largely untouched.

It's a fantastic place to shop, it's been very successful and we - I think there's some nice things here. Make sure you have a good look at the 3D TV, of course you can't miss it; but it's had a tremendous reaction from customers in the store. We've had to actually change the layout because there are such big crowds at the weekend. But you'll get a good sense of what this store is all about. So just in terms of what we're actually going to go through here today; I'll go through a quick introduction, explain to you some of the work we've done to actually make this a customer focused business. We'll then go through the store transformation update and we'll also talk about how we're improving service support for customers and this is after sales and then how we are starting to do the work to win on the internet. You'll probably all have seen that we've actually relaunch our websites. There's not a big customer change yet, because the main thing was to get the platform in. But you'll see more development of that as we go through the year. Nick will take you through the financials and Jeremy Fennell, who is our Category Director for Computing is going to talk to you about technology and why we all should be excited about the prospect for technology and how it's going to impact our business over the next few years, and then we'll quickly obviously summarise all of that.

(3) Where do lexicons come from, design or corpora? Conclusions: 1. Regarding lexicons: Lexicons are for something. The all-purpose lexicon is myth. There are shared structures, properties, features, forms, and contexts, but it is best to think of lexicons as multiple and application-driven. 2. Regarding senses: Word senses do not exist as objects in them- selves. Words have senses, but there there are no senses independent of the contextu- alized word. (More precisely, a word has a 4 meaning potential, components of which are activated when a word is put together with other words in a context.) 5 Session 1: What is a Very Large Lexical Database? What’s the relationship between corpus and lexicon? • Corpus: an accumulation of tokens • Lexicon: an ordered collection of word-types (spelling forms) or lemmas, with data attached.

  • Apple Names European Exec to Head Retail Ops 31 January 2012
    Apple names European exec to head retail ops 31 January 2012 (AP) -- Apple Inc. has named Dixons Retail CEO John Browett as its top retail executive, charged with developing the sales strategy for the iPhone and iPad maker as it expands Apple stores around the world. Browett will take on his new job as senior vice president of retail in April. He will report directly to Apple CEO Tim Cook, who took over after Apple co-founder and longtime CEO Steve Jobs died in October. "Our retail stores are all about customer service, and John shares that commitment like no one else we've met," Cook said in a statement Tuesday. Browett has served as CEO of Dixons Retail, a major European electronics retailer, since 2007. Dixons said that Browett will leave its board on Feb. 20 and will depart from the company on April 20. The company named Sebastian James as Group CEO and Katie Bickerstaffe to the newly created role of CEO-U.K. and Ireland. Browett has also held several positions at the British retailer Tesco PLC and headed its web site operations. Apple's stock rose $2.89 to $455.90 in premarket trading Tuesday.

    WORLD TELEVISION Dixons Retail Preliminary Results Presentation - 23rd June 2011 Page 2 Dixons Retail - Preliminary Results Presentation - 23rd June 2011 John Browett: Okay, shall we start then. So, welcome, thank you for coming along today, we'll do the normal format which is we're going to give a presentation to start with and then we'll open up for questions. So if we just start off. I mean obviously the markets are still relatively difficult and we want to just explain why we're able to, in this marketplace, actually maintain our profits, maintain our sales and gain share as a consequence of that where some of our competitors are struggling a bit. I think one of the things to say is that from our perspective, our focus is entirely on the customer at the moment. We're not actually looking at this from a sort of market share perspective, for us that's an output it's not an input, it's not the way in which we actually run the business day to day. And one of the things I'm going to show you today is actually some data from the UK to show you how we're making a material difference in customer satisfaction because our business always starts with the customers, that's where we're actually getting the results. As a consequence we're then able to actually outperform the market. I'd also say that the market share comments which we've made are not just the UK and Nordics, we bring that out because it's three quarters of our sales, but we're seeing the same thing in Italy, in Greece, in Turkey and a number of other markets.
