Training and Development at Dorintos Ghana Dorintos Ghana is a
subsidiary of a large confectionery company in South Africa.
Dorintos has preserved its longstanding goodwill as a firm that is
committed to fostering learning and developing all employees All
Dorintos subsidiaries are performing well since the introduction of
their new production equipment worldwide. The headquarters is
however discontent with levels of productivity and employee
performance in the Ghanaian subsidiary. Mr Ampah, the training and
development manager has been tasked to investigate why the
subsidiary is not performing according to expectations. The
Dorintos headquarters has authorized Mr Ampah to ensure that
Dorintos Ghana staff adapts to the new technological innovation and
responds appropraitely to changes in the market.
Mr Ampah is accusing the packing department staff of scheming to
sabotage production as machines are constantly out of order.
Workers on the assembly lines believe management do not care about
their safety and health. Recently, there has been a series of work
accidents on the assembly lines although Dorintos organizes health
and safety training sessions annually. At such training events
employees are updated on the business strategy and past
performance. For most workers these annual training events are an
annoying routine and a waste of time. Workers have complained that
the external training consultants have little or no knowledge of
the company culture and work processes to offer the appropriate
trainings. Workers walked out of the last training session
describing it as outdated and of no learning value. Moreover, they
do not agree with management and Mr Ampah that the performance of
the subsidiary has dwindled. Tensions are high and if the
subsidiary doesn’t revamp soon it will be shut down.

After reading about Middle Adulthood I truly believe that midlife crisis can exist in middle aged adults. Midlife crisis may begin to occur when major changes happen during this period of time. What I mean by this is major physical changes in both men and women that show their aging more and more. Or a divorce happens where our textbook uses the example of, “A 40-year old man who divorces his wife, trades in his Ford Taurus station wagon for a red Saab convertible and marries a much younger woman makes a greater impression than a happily married man who remains with his spouse (and Taurus) through middle adulthood.” (Feldman, 2015, p.379). Contributing factors od divorce in the middle adult years are as follows. A couple may spend less time together in middle aged years than in earlier years. Another reason is that they are more concerned with their own happiness. Which makes a spouse believe that divorcing will bring them their lost happiness. (Feldman, 2015, p.384). Another reason for divorce is that romantic, passionate feelings may fade over time…In some marriages the lack of excitement and boredom leads to marital dissatisfaction. (Feldman, 2015, p.384). Finally, the biggest reason for divorce is infidelity which is when a spouse engages in sexual activity with a person outside of the marriage. (Feldman, 2015, p.384). These are the most common contributing factors of divorce in the middle-aged years. There are a few ways to prevent divorce after 25 years of marriage. Holding realistic expectations where couples understand that there will be things that couples may not like about each other but are still accepting of it. They remain to focus on the positive such as thinking about things that they like mostly about their partner which help accept the things that bother them. Compromising which simply means the couple understands that they are not going to win every single argument that they get into. And the last thing is avoiding suffering in silence which is when something bothers a partner they let their partner know instead of keeping silent. It allows them to speak about the problem in a calm way together. (Feldman, 2015, p.384). Although divorce rates are rising in the United States if these factors were taken in seriously I feel that the divorce rate would be much lower. However, if one is truly unhappy they should get the situation handled after trying whatever it takes to save the marriage. IN 9-10 LINES, WHAT DO YOU AGREE ON THIS PAGE OR HOW WOULD COMMENT?
