Abstract I work for the largest Sears Holding Company in the United States. This is an honor to be a part of something so big where I can make a difference. We will be looking at three different environments and how it affects Sears and the profits of the store. I will also explain the elaborate management system that is the backbone of our store that makes it run smoothly and efficiently as possible. I am proud to be part of a company that stands behind their employees and wants the best for them. We all work together to make this store a success.

Introduction
The organization that will be discussed is Sears Holding Corporation (SHC). It is important to me to learn about this company because I am employed there as a salesperson.

Once that is obtainable I would like to further my career with this company to become a vice president or CEO of this company. In order for me to make this an obtainable goal, it would be helpful for me to learn every aspect of the company and how it works. I know the customer service part of the company now I need to learn the behind the scenes policies and procedures of the company.
