Description
The concept of purchasing policy and strategy is central to understanding of the process of strategic management. The term strategy emanates from a Greek word ‘ strategos’ , which means generalship – the actual direction of a military force as distinct from the policy governing their deployment. The word literally means the art of the general. Strategy begins with a concept of how to use the resources of a firm more effectively in the changing environment. It is similar to the concept in sports called “ game plan” e.g. before a team goes into the field, effective coaches examine a competitor’ s past plans, strengths and weaknesses. The objective is to win the game with minimum injuries; coaches may also not wish to use all their best players but to save some for the future opponents. So coaches devise a plan to win a game.

STAGES OF PRENATAL DEVELOPMENT
Trending!
The human life cycle may be said to begin with fertilization and then proceed through prenatal growth and development, birth, postnatal growth and development, maturity, senescence,
and death. While you might think of child development as something that begins during infancy, the prenatal period is also considered an important part of the developmental process. Prenatal development is a time of remarkable change that helps set the stage for future psychological development. The brain develops over the course of the prenatal period, but it will continue to go through more changes during the early years of childhood. The process of prenatal development occurs in three main stages. The first two weeks after conception are known as the germinal stage, the third through the eighth week is known as the
embryonic period, and the time from the ninth week until birth is known as the fetal period.
