Psycho – Shower scene study

This scene starts with Marion Crane, wearing a glossy robe. She is seated at the desk in her hotel room with pencil, paper and a bankbook. She is calculating the amount of stolen money she spent and must replace. She tears up the sheet of paper and is about to toss it into the wastebasket, but thinks better of it and takes it to the bathroom where she flushes it down the toilet. (I think this symbolises that she thinks she can just flush away her worries like she flushes away the piece of paper) She then closes the door, removes her robe, and steps into the bathtub. She draws the shower curtain closed and unwraps a bar of soap. She turns on the shower. You can see the joy in Crane's eyes as the water runs through her hair and down her body, this symbolises Crane is washing all her guilt away. The guilt is both from the money she stole and her affair with Sam, her lover. As she is showering, through the translucent shower curtain we see the door open. This starts the build up of suspense. A shadow slowly approaches, adding further to the suspense, Crane is facing away from the attacker. Crane is ironically ignorant of the imminent danger approaching her. The attacker pauses for 6 – 10 seconds before swiftly throwing open the shower curtain. At this moment high pitched music played by violins starts to play. The camera zooms to a close up shot of the attackers face, the attacker is in the shadow, only her (attacker) figure, hair and eyes can be seen. The eyes look vengeful. The camera then switches to a close up shot of Crane's screaming face, the camera then moves to an extreme close up of Crane's wide open screaming mouth. This shows the terror and fright installed on Crane by the attacker. The attacker then brings her knife backwards and lunges at Crane with the knife, the attacker only uses her arm, the rest of her body stays as solid as a rock. This shows the attacker is very calm. The attacker and Crane are contrapuntal. The attacker lunges with the knife once again, but Crane squirms attempting to dodge the knife. Crane flails her arms defencelessly; her face is contorted with fear as the attacker stabs faster. Whilst Crane is trying to push the knife away from her body, she is slipping on the wet floor of the bathtub. Crane tries to cover her breasts from the attacker with one arm whilst attempting to ward off the blows with the other, this is when the diegetic sound of the knife stabbing Crane starts. Marion loses her strength, the attackers blows strike unguarded. Crane continues to writhe in pain, as the knife starts to make contact with her skin. Crane face is knotted due to the pain. She grimaces as the knife stabs faster and harder. The knife is now seen being thrust at Crane's stomach. Her face crumples once again. The knife is now seen being lunged at Crane's ribs. Crane screams as the knife makes contact. Crane is then seen slipping in her own blood; I think this ands hysteria and irony to the scene. Her feet move rapidly and nervously, Crane subsequently turns away from the attacker this suggests Crane is desperate to get away from her. The attacker stabs crane in the back, bringing back the cruel reality, she cannot escape. The camera switches to Crane's feet where once again she is slipping in her blood. The camera then switches to a close up shot of Crane's hand grabbing at the wall. As the attacker leaves the room the audience notice she is wearing a dressing gown and slippers, she has her hair in a tight bun. The shrieking violin music stops, indicating the murder is over, the music changes to ominous bass representing Crane is dying. Crane's hand slowly slides down the wall as the fingertips struggle against the weight of Crane's own body. Crane is dying, she doesn't have the strength to use her hand anymore, it falls lifeless to the bottom of the bathtub. Crane then turns around and rests her body on the ceramic tiles. Crane's face is as solemn as a morgue; her body left with little life slowly slides down the wall. Crane's expression is constant. Every few seconds her flesh desperately clings to the wet tiles but once again the body weight pulls her down. This makes the audience feel pity for Crane. Nothing can support Crane's body, Crane gulps like a fish out of water, she knows the end is near. Crane gathers all her strength and reaches out to use the shower curtain to pull herself up. A close up of crane's hand clasping on to the shower curtain is shown. Her final attempt fails; the shower curtain is pops of the shower rail hooks. Crane's naked wounded body falls forward, sprawled half over the bathtub half over the bathroom floor. The ominous bass stops, all the audience can hear is the diegetic sound of the shower. The camera moves for a close up of the shower still flowing. I think this symbolises that life moves on, the world has not changed apart from her absence. The next shot is of blood from Crane's corpse running down the bathtub. The camera would follow the blood down the drain but an extreme close up of Crane's eye stops us. This reminds us of the murder which has taken place. The camera zooms out showing the whole of Crane's cold, shocked face pressed against the bathroom floor. Water runs from cranes hair past her eyes, it seems from the audiences' perspective that Crane is crying. Crane's face is as motionless as a photograph. A brief shot of the shower follows. The camera moves from the bathroom to Crane's bedroom at the Bates Motel the camera then zooms for a close up shot of the newspaper where Crane hid the money that she stole. Hitchcock is reminding us of the reason for Crane's death. If Crane hadn't stolen the money she would be at home probably in bed. If Crane had not been murdered she would have returned home the next day with the money she stole and a good excuse. Her life would have probably sorted itself out. This reflects on the whole shower scene as a whole. The trauma, hysteria and reality caused by the event. The shower scene gives psychological fear to the audience, they can relate to the shower scene because the audience have showers. Crane was an ordinary person with an ordinary job. This is why this scene is celebrated as a masterpiece in modern times. I was hesitant to pull the shower curtain shut after I watched the scene; I imagine the fear was even greater in the 1960 s because no film like this had ever been made. It was the first true horror movie.

George Orwell and William Golding Essay

Orwell and Golding use vastly different writing styles, but their message is the same – that mankind is hopeless. Discuss this statement with reference to both â€Å"Animal Farm† and â€Å"Lord of the Flies†. Since the beginning of time man has struggled to comprehend the difference between good and evil. Our ancestors spent their lives looking for truth, yet none could be found. Is there indeed a good of all goods and an evil of all evils? The two are so similar, and yet so different. The truth is, no one being is perfect, nor were we created to be. No one thing can be the source of all evil, or the source of all good. Yet man battles with himself, to determine what is right. But what, then, is truly right? If there is an evil, then Humans should be deemed to be the most evil of all creatures. We are manipulative, egotistic and dominating. We have the urge to be the dominating force in the universe. We strive for superiority and aim for domination. Yet are such feelings to be considered wrong? Cannot they just be classified as instincts, which many other animals have? No, for we are indeed intelligent creatures and instead of exercising our superiority we should be learning of others greatness. We, as indeed intelligent beings should stray from the common selfishness and anger. Yet, they seem to be much easier to arouse, harder to abolish. In his novel â€Å"Animal Farm†, George Orwell portrays the animals with human-like feelings and emotions. He uses satire to demonstrate the full extent of human emotion. Though the story is about animals, there are very few who think it is just that. The satire gives the story enough appeal to readers, but the message rings as solemn as ever. George Orwell uses little dialogue, but describes the characters and situations with great detail, paying attention to their characters and emotions. It is easier to understand all the happenings, because the characters are animals. At the same time, when one compares them to humans, a striking similarity can be found. The book makes one think, and it hurts when one realizes that the story in the book is not far from our reality. It is a sad reality; however, it is necessary to acknowledge this for one to be able to  overcome it. George Orwell’s message is that humankind is hopeless. Perhaps we are, but a lost cause, we are not. For it is books like these, which help one to understand our faults so that one can correct them as best as one can. We were not created to be perfect, but we were also not created to be dominating and superior. All beings on this planet are created to be equals. Humans have forgotten such principles of nature. Humans battle to overcome cruelty. However, while we believe we have done so, the cruel, dominating and never ending cycle begins again. The truth is we are prisoners of our own characters, and perhaps that can never change. William Golding, the author of â€Å"Lord of the Flies† uses fictional portrayal of human emotional conflict to reach the reader. He takes a situation, which could quite realistically occur in life, and elaborates upon it. He uses complex vocabulary and original sentence structure to show the complexity and variation of human emotions. He uses the little boys as characters in the story to prove a very valid point. The fact that such small children can turn on each other so rapidly is a sobering thought. Golding shows, that no matter how good the intentions are at first, our inner feelings of selfishness can overcome us very easily, especially in a critical situation The book makes the reader contemplate their own actions in such a situation. Whereas as no one can be brutally honest with themselves, it is possible to relate to others. That is what Golding is trying to create. Regardless of whether they planned to do so or not, they will think, and perhaps that may bring us one step closer to understanding a very important character – ourselves. Although their writing styles are prominently different, both George Orwell and William Golding show similar views on the human character. Their honest portrayal of humans as we are by nature leaves the reader thoughtful. So, are we then indeed bound for eternal struggle? Are we indeed as hopeless are the authors suggest? That is one question, which will not be answered with the advance in technology or by new scientific discoveries. We are our own  judges, but can we trust ourselves?

Should public policy be directed exclusively at growth promotion for Essay

Should public policy be directed exclusively at growth promotion for the attainment of overall societal goals - Essay Example Social goal responsibility is the art putting goals of a certain co-corporate, institution knowledge or prosperity to be of collective concern within the community or society. This is generally speaking out the message of ‘we’ and ‘us’ rather than ‘I’ and ‘me’. Since the public policy is centered at the needs of the majority, then social goals becomes of great concern within an organization. Just like in a classroom, pupils or students usually have a collective goal of passing exams through discussions and consultations. While the only way of ensuring collective success in a society or a business organization is through the involved individuals having a collective goal at the expense of targeted and non-targeted society (Kimberly & Tamar, 2009). On the other hand individualistic goal is centered on one’s interest and desire that all opportunities that come on the way are utilized individually. This is directly linked with per sonal development and success. Therefore, public policy has more to do with promoting societal goal oriented programs rather than individualistic. Methodology This research study was conducted using qualitative data from library written materials like journals and electronic research like websites. However, some organizations hold their internal information private and hence full information is not available. Literature review According to John Long & Nerida Aitken, individual agreement is works well for employers as compared agreements of collective interests. Citing an employee pay in Australia, the employees covered by workplace agreement earns much better that those guarded by federal enterprise agreements. In addition the individualistic goals lowers the cost concerning company activities like documentation, transaction costs e.tc. Hence it is a more efficient way. It is also noted that individualism is equal to flexibility. The term flexibility can be used in wide range of iss ues including remuneration, operational requirements implementation of change by a company. However, individual practices do not necessarily warrant flexibility or individualized activities (Diener, 2009)). Practically, flexibility is dependent on the nature of the company enterprise, the proposed form of flexibility, the way in which the management and the employees are related as we as the number of employees and their benefits. This means that sometimes some employees of the company may decline to cooperate or to sign workplace policies offered by the state (Long & Aitken, 2001). The way individual agreements discussed and formed, are just done on individual basis. In addition, within an individualistic agreement their may still exist a collective ideology. However, concerning the individual agreements by the top management team, they will all have uniform individualistic idea concerning all the entire employees with some disagreements on the payroll, description of job as well a s the length of working hours (Long. J & Aitken. N, 2001). Individualistic goals are important in fostering increased commitment at work places. The is usually increased interaction between the individual employees and the employer hence individualism strengthens the psychological contract at the work place (Brown, W. 1999). This usually explains the role the employees in the company as well direction and stability of the business. On the issue of societal goal within a company, the employees can create a sense of mistrust to the employer if the perceived societal agreements are

Using Technology within the Prescription and Medication Process Essay

Using Technology within the Prescription and Medication Process - Essay Example It is evidently clear from the discussion that the CPOE system used by hospital administrator made errors in the dosage prescribed and prescribed dosage as per the availability in the warehousing rather than as prescribed by the physicians. Moreover, the various screens, small font, and similarity in names also led to errors in matching prescription to the correct patient. Several scholars believe that structural-functional paradigms and organizational development processes are critical determinants of change. The structural-functional paradigm promotes the view that functional efficiency and structural modification increase the productivity. Thus innovation and new processes are identified to enhance organizational performance. Theory of organizational development is hugely pertinent as highlights organization’s willingness to change in order to improve productivity. It not only creates facilitating an environment of constant learning but also introduces new technology to inc rease efficiency and productivity. The flexibility in approach is vital ingredient within the organizational changes that require the constant involvement of the management and workforce to implement the changes successfully. Effective communication becomes an important factor to empower workers with relevant information so that they are better equipped to accept change and exploit it for higher productivity. The theories become important because structural and functional changes are accompanied by dissemination of information and training on new processes. It helps the workforce to understand change and become proficient in using new technology to meet fresh challenges. These theories of change management identify, evaluate and implement the changes through empowerment of the people and therefore would help administrators at Springfield Hospital to solve the problem of medication error.

Manchester City - Management Success Essay Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 750 words

Manchester City - Management Success - Essay Example As a player, Mancini lifted four Italian Cups, the Serie A (1991 and 2000), the Cup Winners' Cup (1990 and 1999), the Italian Supercup, and the UEFA Supercup and was voted the Serie A Player of the Year and Italian Footballer of the Year in 1997. These achievements clearly manifest his talent and capabilities. However, it was the oddly immense powers that he wielded as a key player at Sampdoria that indicated early that he would get to be an excellent manager. Here Mancini, a 27 year old, often delivered the team-talk, sat on the interview panel for selecting the next manager and was also consulted when selecting the teams’ new kit. In addition to that, he was invited to board meetings and had a say in which players where to be bought by his club during the transfer market (Taylor 2012). This early foray into team management roles gave him a head start as well as helped him build the skills needed to succeed as a football club manager. Working with top clubs requires a manag er who can handle the pressure from the board, fans, journalists and even managers from the opposing teams. Kuper (n.d.) argues that one proven attribute of successful managers is their ability to, in some way for example via the media (Jackson 2012), lower the tension that players feel in each match so that they can be relaxed enough to enjoy the game. His argument was that successful teams are those whose players enjoy the game (Kuper n.d.). The fact that Mancini played at the highest level in football gives assurance to his players that he fully understands what they are going through. Another important trait of Mancini is his ability to not only work with but also bring out the best from his troublesome players such as Carlos Tevez and Mario Balotelli at Manchester City (Walker 2012). Here it would be best to remember that as a player, Mancini was also not the easiest to work with. Taylor (2012) argues that this could have been because he was so repulsed by failure and desperate to the point of having an obsession for winning. Like Mario Balotelli, Mancini was as skillful as he was hot tempered in his playing days. This could be the reason why he is able to work with the talented but difficult soccer players who join the teams that he is coaching. Finally, we believe that the greatest reason why Robert Mancini was selected to manage Manchester City is his track record as a coach. He has brought cup glory for all the clubs where he has coached namely: Fiorentina, Lazio and Inter Milan. In fact, with Lazio and Fiorentina, Mancini managed to create winning teams in spite of the financial constraints that forced him to lose several key players. At Fiorentina he lost Rui Costa and Francesco Toldo at their prime while at Lazio he had to work without the services of Hernan Crespo and Alessandro Nesta. Nevertheless, it was at Internazionale where he proved capable of handling the pressure that come with managing a top club. When the Abu Dhabi United Grou p purchased Manchester City in 2008 there agenda was to raise the club to the status of the other top clubs in Europe. Their strategy was first to attract top talent using their immense wealth, then a top coach and finally win the big trophies locally and abroad. Mancini was an attractive option because at Fiorentina and Lazio he had demonstrated his team-building skills and at Internazionale he proved that he could equally work well with a star-studded team. Furthermore the owners must

Asians' Attitude toward Different Age Groups Term Paper

Asians' Attitude toward Different Age Groups - Term Paper Example In anthropology the type of communication one uses shows how one feels about another. In the Asian continent, many countries have a very high level of respect for their elders even if they are only slightly older. They show this respect through non-verbal and verbal means. Bowing is one of the most significant non-verbal methods of showing respect to elder people in Asia. This practice has been ongoing for a long time and its integration in their culture is as old as the discovery of the community itself. In order to show trust, the bowing has to be with eyes down to the floor. In order to understand such concepts, anthropology uses certain concepts. The first concept in anthropology is human universalism. This concept tries to convince people that despite what society or race one is from, the aspect of humanity makes everyone equal. This is evident in the Asian scenario of respect to the elders. It is an inborn human trait to respect people older than someone due to their experience in life. The people may not be learned than the younger ones but their wisdom in life lessons is invaluable. Even though this concept remains trashed by many societies, the respect for elders remains universal. In Asia, bowing is a common symbol of respect across many countries. This proves the second concept of anthropology that all cultures are somehow interrelated. In order for one to understand how a culture works, one has to understand how it influences and influenced by other institutions. Respect impacts on the culture of Asians positively as it enhances love between the siblings and their elders. Bowing is a small task compared to what it accomplishes in the relationship between ancestors and their young ones. The lower one bows, the deeper the respect and trust one has for that person. In order for one to be successful, Asians in many countries believe there has to

Organization climate and innovation leadership Essay

Organization climate and innovation leadership - Essay Example â€Å"The observable level of culture, and consists of behavior patterns and outward manifestations of culture: perquisites provided to executives, dress codes, level of technology utilized†¦Ã¢â‚¬ (Schein, 1992). The shared beliefs and value system of the organizations are reflected in the creative productivity and efficient delivery of the organizational goals and objectives. Leadership with reference to large organization is as important as that of small one for the simple reasons that the leaders within the organizations, not only provide an intangible stability among the employees and facilitate integration with the system, but they have been known to promote collective vision of the organization and provide the necessary impetus to the employees to strive towards it. â€Å"The successful global manager must adapt to the values of other cultures while at the same time maintaining his or her own set of values† ( Elashmawi, Multicultural Management and Negotiation). Workers are the pillars of the organization and good leaders promote better understanding of cross cultural values and help resolve conflicts. It also facilitates in creating congenial work atmosphere that motivates and inspires others to improve their performance and achieve organization’s goals with more enthusiasm, vigor and creativity. Since the workforce or the people are intrinsic part of organization climate, role of department of human resource becomes crucial in the employment of its workforce. In the era of globalization, it becomes important that HR leaders look beyond the criteria of race, nationality and color of their employees. HR leaders need to be aware that the traditional process of labor deployment is undergoing a fast transformation, both in terms of quality and quantity. ‘It is widely acknowledged that over the past decade and a half, radical new forms of production have emerged with the pervasive

Alfred Hitchcock Movies Rebecca and Marnie Movie Review

Alfred Hitchcock Movies Rebecca and Marnie - Movie Review Example They included her former employer, a very demanding woman and her husband Maxim, sophisticated, suave and with varying temperaments. The poor girl, suffered in being constantly compared to the deceased Rebecca. She was most especially tormented by Mrs. Danvers, the family housekeeper who was very fond of Rebecca. Her loyalty is something weird because her actions assumed that Rebecca would be coming back from the dead. Mrs. Danvers was manipulative and made the young Mrs. De Winters so insecure which nearly drove the latter to suicide in her struggle to unravel the mystery of Rebecca. In the end, she realized that it was only Mrs. Danvers, the loyal housekeeper who wished her ill. A freak boating accident opened the mysteries of Rebeccas's death and eventually the truth came out. The young wife realized the extent of her husbands miseries because of Rebecca and discovered that she was truly loved by maxim. The knowledge gave her the strenth to take charge of her life. She blossomed f rom a meek and insecure girl to a mature and confident young woman. The transformation was brought about by the love and passion that she shared with her husband and their hope for a happier future together sans the haunting shadow of Rebecca. In end the good wins over the evil. The movie "Marnie" is of the same genre as that of the movie "Rebecca". ... The movie "Marnie" is of the same genre as that of the movie "Rebecca". It's the story of a beautiful woman who has the penchant of robbing dry her employers. She met her match in Mark, the rich playboy who recognized her and was attracted to her. She marked him to be her next victim. He, on the other hand, had her under surveillance so as to discover her secrets. Mark, in love with Marnie and challenged by her icy personality, played the role of an amateur psychologist and tried to solve and identify the root cause of her thieving activities. It turned out that her thievery and frigidity was caused by a childhood trauma and her only "cure" would be a sexual release. Mark wanted to be the man to do it. The two movies have the similar types of male heroes. Both Maxim and Mark were rich, worldly, and sophisticated who both loved their women passionately. They both helped their women overcome their insecurities and fears. The two women leads though are opposite in personalities. Whereas the second Mrs. De Winters was portrayed as someone with the wide-eyed innocence and beauty, Marnie was a bright, icy beauty who exuded confidence and self-assurance. Both ladies though suffer from fears and insecurities, the former because of her youth and inexperience and the haunting presence of her husband's first wife, and the latter because of a childhood trauma. The second Mrs. De Winters name has never been mentioned in the whole movie, perhaps to emphasize the point that she represented any ordinary girl in love, full of innocence and has the innate capacity to defend herself and fight for her love. Marnie is the more complicated character. She is not an ordinary girl. She is brilliant and be autiful but with a flaw in character. In contrast to Mrs. De Winters

Budnet Bi Essay Example | Topics and Well Written Essays - 750 words

Budnet Bi - Essay Example According to the assessment made in the year 2008, the company had 48% of market share within the US market, however in the year 2006 it was 49% and in the year 2005, it was 50%. This consecutive reduction of market share implies that the company has been facing a downfall in its business (Anheuser-Busch InBev, â€Å"About AB InBev†). Anheuser-Busch was facing considerable price restriction as well as business pressure before implementing ‘BudNet’, a network based data warehousing solution system. By considering the US beer market, it can be observed that it was primarily a mature market but with flat consumption level. This scenario occurred due to three reasons, firstly, effective consciousness regarding the issues related to alcohol, slow growth of population as well as age factor of population. In relation to the year 2005, the beer market reached its saturation stage where most of the consumers were very much conscious about the consumption level of alcohol. In the US, the largest beer consuming segment is the young adult group. Thus, these significant aspects created considerable business pressure for Anheuser-Busch while operating in the US market. According to the assessment of the year 2005, it is viewed that US beer market had reached the saturation stage. Majority of the beer manufacturing corporations focused on emerging markets whereas the supply level of the products automatically decreased in the developed markets. The US domestic beer market was primarily in mature stage in the industry life cycle with flat consumption level. In the US, young adults were the significant market segment, whereas other age group consumers had become very much conscious about the consumption of alcohol.

Fracking - Essay Example Fracking possess various significant and equally distinctive feature that portrays the mechanism endeavor towards sustainability as discussed below. Stance 1 Sustainability of the environment refers to the ability of human activities to safeguard the existence of other organisms. Additionally, business practices must also foster the longevity of both the business and the practice. The cost implications of fracking portray it as an economical mining process that fosters profitability of companies. Fracking for example uses readily available resources key among which is water and sand to operate. The process mixes sand and water before pumping them at high pressure into the wellbores thereby creating long narrow fractures through which the natural resources such as natural gases and oil flow to the surface, the pressurized solution denser than the crude oil and therefore settles to the bed of the oil wells thus forcing the oil out (Brasch 21). The mining process is preferred in rocky r egions. The pressure mechanism propels the solution at higher capable of either perforating or disintegrating the rocks thereby creating the small paths for the flow of the crude oil from the wells. This makes the processes useful in nearly every well including those that have remained operational for some time. As mining into such well continue, the level of the oil in the wells deplete. In order to confirm the depletion of the reserves, fracking is necessary in breaking the earth crust in an investigative process as the miners seek to test the depth of the wells (Uberoi 54). In most cases, the perforation of the earth’s crust results in the discovery of more oil thereby sustaining the longevity of the business. The mining process has presented other viable gas extraction process that seeks to safeguard the safety and longevity of the naturally existing resources. Unlike the conventional mining process including drilling, multi staged drilling presents the opportunity to ext ract the highly valuable resources from the earth’s surface without causing major disruptions to the earth surface. A type of fracking known as multi stage fracturing facilitate the development of shale gas among other light tight oil production in such great economies as the united states. This way, the process has therefore proven an economic viability. Stance 2 Among the sustainability interfaces include ecological practices. This includes environmental protection and environmental resource management. Sustainability therefore compels the consideration of both social and environmental of an economic activity. Oil prospecting is a labor-intensive activity that has various implications on both the society and the environment (Clayton and Nicholas 31). Fracking as a mining method presents various economic advantages that makes the process preferred by many operators in the industry. The process requires less labor than other conventional mining methods besides its other advan tages that contribute to the efficiency of the method. However, opponents of the method have sighted various negative environmental implications that the mining process has thereby casting doubt on the use of the method in mining. As discussed earlier, a sustainable process must have positive implications on b

Goods Spend Analysis Report Essay Example for Free

Goods Spend Analysis Report Essay Gathering complete and accurate data of total goods spending requires the access to spend data from all relevant sources both within and outside the company. Good data cannot be collected when spend analysis is not supported by stakeholders including customers, suppliers, and internal clients. Step Two: Form a spend analysis team The company needs to realize that spend analysis is too critical to be assigned as an additional duty of purchasing department. A spend analysis team should be formed and dedicated to collect and analyze data and perform more strategic functions such as future spend forecast, budget review and adjustment, and program research. Step Three: Examine data quality and identify an effective data management process A considerable number of purchase orders or purchasing activities are not electronically transmitted in the company therefore the accuracy of purchasing records must be examined. In order to obtain complete, accurate, and consistent data, all stakeholders should identify an effective data/record management process to ensure accuracy. Step Four: Create a proper classification schema It’s very unlikely that the company will adopt an automated spend data management system designed for spend data extraction, cleansing and classification process. The spend analysis team will have to determine how to group spend data around distinct commodities with the concept of strategic sourcing in mind. Spend data should be categorized at the item level, providing visibility and allowing comparisons of detailed attributes across suppliers and commodities. Step Five: Implement spend analysis reports on a monthly basis The monthly spend analysis reports should highlight the top suppliers, internal customers, commodities receiving spend. Other reports addressing accumulated savings and process improvement should also be implemented and shared with other stakeholders for the purpose of involving them in advanced sourcing plans. Reporting will provide a high visibility into spending and help develop a cost-saving model to be used in strategic sourcing. Specific Key Triggers The company has a high percentage of single sourcing for direct commodities as they have signed contracts with the suppliers in Asia who manufacture different product lines for them. They have negotiated low rates for the products that will be manufactured and shipped to Canada and then directly distributed to customers (mainly retailers and gift stores). Since the company has a large customer base instead of a large supplier base, the key triggers to be considered for focus are high dollar value of direct goods or product lines, high dollar value of make-to-order for customers, high dollar value of indirect goods for internal customers, and high number of transactions of indirect goods for internal customers. Procurement Strategy and Spend Analysis All the products must pass safety and lead testing in Canada before selling and distribution. The procurement strategy the company currently employs is low cost with standard quality. The goods spend analysis recommended in this essay will work well with the company’s procurement strategy. It is true that the company is struggling to reduce costs and cut spending at all levels, however, they cannot afford sourcing products with lower quality as the spending on inspection and disposal will dramatically rise. In order to monitor and manage spending properly, strategic spend analysis is the only effective tool they can use to achieve the goal.

Schools Meet The Holistic Needs Of Every Child Education Essay

Schools Meet The Holistic Needs Of Every Child Education Essay Schools and teachers, in my belief, act as in loco parentis, which means that they take over all the responsibility of the child as a parent. Under The Children Act (1989) and The Health and Safety at Work Act (1974), teachers have a duty of care towards their pupils. Although, this does not bind them to have parental responsibility, teachers are expected to promote the welfare and wellbeing of children in their care as any responsible parent would do. In doing so, a teacher ought to be aware of the holistic needs of every child. This does not only include academic needs but physical, mental, social and emotional aspect as well. Ideally, the aim to meet these requirements should be reflected through the schools polices and the adaptability towards different approaches throughout the school. Before analysing my subject in detail, I would like to explore my subject in context of Maslows Hierarchy of needs starting from physiological as the basic requirement building gradually to the psychological elements of concerns. (Maslow, A. 1987) Many schools, according to the demand of the children, provide extended school provisions such as breakfast clubs to meet basic physiological needs. Moreover, as statutory framework for EYFS (2012) emphasises on the provision of healthy meals, snacks and drinks as necessary and fresh drinking water being available and accessible at all times. The psychological aspect covers mainly the mental, emotional and social needs. These are generally met according to the criteria set by different schools i.e. their policies and approaches. Its effectiveness however, depends on the implementation of these approaches throughout the school, within the classroom and towards an individual child. As it is not possible to cover all these aspects of concern, my focus in this essay would be on social needs of an EAL child in a classroom. In order to evaluate my subject, I will be using examples from my previous school experiences in school B. Being larger than an average primary school; every year a reasonable number of children join school B with no exposure to English. Looking into the school policies and approaches; I will explore its relation to the classroom environment and its impact on that particular child. My aim will be to produce an evaluation based on evidence and critical analysis of effectiveness of schools policies with supporting evidence throughout. As school Bs policies (appendix 1) strongly advocate the idea of individuality and being inclusive, hence providing a social friendly environment for its pupils. Their mission statement, every piece of puzzle is needed to complete the whole picture and celebrating success together is a true representation of their policies. (School website, online) Many of these policies are highly influenced by government documents such as, Working Together to Safeguard Children (DfES 2006) and Bradford Safeguarding Children Board Procedures (2007) as mentioned in their policies (appendix 2). In addition, various national initiatives have been taken into consideration along with these policies, which has moulded the ideology of the school B. A very recent example of which is the Every Child Matters (DfES 2003) initiative which focuses on the basic individual needs of children. Although, ECM is not a legal requirement for schools anymore, its principles are still deeply embedded in the school in the form of a program Every Child Counts. The key areas that ECM covered were generally about safety, integrating locally, regionally and nationally and to be able to make a positive contribution in society. Other than that, Pugh, G. (2006) highlighted that there was a stronger focus on parenting and families as a part of an ECM factor that enabled many schools to develop connection between the school and the community. Considering these elements, school B established strong terms with the parents by encouraging their participation in school activities. This was done by inviting them in school assemblies and other celebrations throughout the year. Having this open door policy, parents/carers and local agencies were welcomed to visit the school at all times. This interaction not only helped school to identify individual needs but also helped parents/carers to develop a healthy relationship between the school, teachers and the pupils. I believe that this relationship plays a vital role in the childrens development as a whole. Pollard (2005), on the other hand, perceives an even deeper meaning to this relationship. This perspective on parents/carers is one that views them as partners with teachers in their childrens development, with parents/carers and teachers in regular contact. (Pollard, A. 2005) Apart from that, the social and emotional aspect of learning known as SEAL is one of the most emphasised programs in school B. This program is a whole school approach to promote effective learning and positive behaviour by supporting social and emotional skills of individuals (DfES 2005). The competences of SEAL has not only shaped the general ethos and environment of the school, but is also deeply embedded in the teaching of these skills within the classroom. This is done by implicating its elements into the curriculum especially through PSHCE, where these needs are addressed in a more assertive manner. Although, PSHCE is not statutory, it is still a very integral part of the curriculum, which reflects the ideology of school B towards social and emotional wellbeing of every child. As school B signifies the importance of inclusion, the general feel of the school is very welcoming to the EAL pupil and parents. Schools motto, greetings and instructions throughout the school are translated into different languages to create a socially friendly environment. To meet the needs of EAL pupils academically, school B has assigned a language support team which not only provide these children with extra guidance throughout the curriculum but also equip them with the a basic tool of language to socialize. However, the success of these policies depends on the teacher to adapt them according to the needs of children and to develop a well structured approach to address them appropriately. In doing so, the teacher in classroom 1 of school B, emphasises on being inclusive and active participation of every child in the classroom. In order to do that the teacher has adopted various methodologies to meet the social needs of the classroom in general. Basic socializing skills like listening, speaking, empathising and collaborating with other pupils are encouraged at all times within the classroom. By making children talk in pairs during the lesson, making small groups to carry out various tasks and through introducing purposeful games within the lesson, these skills are embedded in their daily routine. In realizing the need to develop social skills amongst pupils, the teacher in classroom 1, encourages discussions and expression of ideas in every form. She organizes activities around the curric ulum such as role play and drama. This in turn, encourages children to share different ideas and develop them together in collaboration (Chilver, P 1982). These activities provide a platform for EAL students to express themselves openly, hence enhancing their confidence in classroom participation. On the other hand, this approach enables rest of the class to develop an understanding amongst each other which helps to remove any social barriers between them and EAL pupil. These implications in my opinion, supports children specially EAL pupils to access learning by creating a responsive environment. Although, schools and teachers are working very hard to provide a purposeful environment for children, its effectiveness depends on how every child benefits from it. As social needs of individuals could differ remarkably from one person to another, they are addressed in a more personalized way in classroom 1. To elaborate my point, I will refer to a case of child A in this classroom, who was new to English and had joined the class in the middle of the year. Being, relatively new to the country and to the language, child X found it increasingly frustrating to participate in class activities. Seeing his discomfort, the teacher appointed a boy from a similar cultural background to accompany him in the classroom and in the playground. This technique, in my point of view, worked effectively in helping child A settle into the classroom. The fact that the child he was paired up with was from the same ethnic background, created a friendlier and more comfortable environment for child A as he was able to communicate with him conveniently. However, this should have been even more useful if the child A was later on paired up with another child with a completely different background. Having this experience could have expanded his understanding of the society, thus developing his social skills. Realizing that the language barrier was a hindrance in child As progress, he was provided with extra help from the EAL support team. As a part of his daily routine, child A was sent out of the classroom for the language sessions with the support teacher during the English and phonics lessons. As this approach was introduced to enhance his language development, in doing so it excluded him from the learning environment and the overall classroom experience. To my understanding the school policies in this case, did help to recognize the specific requirement of child X and provided him with an exclusive support to meet his needs. On the other hand, it also took away the opportunities to experience an inclusive learning environment which I believe is a basic right of every child. Although, I do take into consideration the point of view that this practice was essential for child X to provide him with the basic understanding of the language. However, similar sort of support could be provided within the classroom by differentiation and one to one guidance. To provide an inclusive learning environment, other lessons were adapted by providing extra visual aids to encourage child As classroom participation. The activities were differentiated throughout the lessons for child A by encouraging the use of ICT to help develop his listening, speaking and reading skills. Provision of an adult support in the classroom, assisted him throughout the lessons to improve his understanding. As the school policy emphasises on adaptation of SEAL, its implications could be seen during the PSHCE lessons in classroom 1. Part of the lesson was incorporated into a whole class activity to encourage social interaction. Even though, execution of the lesson was very effective in addressing the social needs in classroom, in my opinion it did not attend to the requirements of child A. Looking into school Bs policies mentioned above, it could be seen that many are heavily influenced by the government. Basic school policies such as health and safety and child protection are legal requirements for every school to provide. Other than that the national initiatives such as ECM, in my belief plays a very vital role in identifying individual needs and to address them effectively. As it is seen that the principles of ECM initiative are deeply rooted in school Bs policies and is reflected through the provision of interventions throughout the school. As looking specifically into the social needs of EAL, I discussed earlier about the introduction of language support group within the classroom. The purpose of these interventions is to target the specific needs of every child hence, following the ECM agenda. I believe that a particular need of child X was addressed through the intervention; however, in doing so it failed to address his needs holistically. It is seen that the interpretation of school policies is well conducted in the classroom B through the class rules, general environment and discipline. Katherine Weare (2000) in her point of view explains the implication of school policies in an affective way. Social and affective education need to be tackled in a way that suits the nature and ethos of each individual school, and be adapted by individual teachers to fit their own style of working. (Weare K. 2000, pg.36) A similar, outcome is extracted from the above study which insinuates that meeting the holistic needs of a particular child depends on how the teacher implicates her ideology into practice. In my opinion, school Bs policies did influence the general understanding of the teacher in classroom 1. However, it was the teacher rather than the school policies, who contributed the most towards meeting the holistic needs of child A. By looking into my past experiences through this essay, it has made me realize that more than school policies; it is the teachers beliefs that make a difference in a childs life.

Studying the big five personality traits

Studying the big five personality traits Nowadays personality trait test becomes more and more famous in recruitment and personal assessment, it is aiming to predict possible academic success and work performance in different settings. Although there are many academic theories attempt to conceptualize and generalize individual differences in the personality research field, such as psychoanalytic theory, psychodynamic theory, phenomenological theory and cognitive theory. (B.R. Hergenhahn, 1994). Each theory contributes a lot on the understanding and conceptualizing of human individual differences. No matter what theory the investigator chose they all had the common goal to build a structured model to describe and explain personality trait. From Sigmund Freuds Id Ego Superego model to R.B.Cattells 16 personality factors model, we can see that every famous trait-orientated psychologist would put forward one personality model. However, by analyzing those personality models it is easy to find out that there were huge differenc es about the number and nature of factors. Since 1980s, trait-orientated psychologists/researchers reached a consensus about the description mode of personality and they have suggested that there are five major personality factors which also called as the Big Five Personality Trait model. (Arnold J et al, 2005) The five dimensions of this model was not presenting or deriving from any of the particular one theories above, but obtained from the daily common words that people used to characterize others and themselves. Instead of displacing all the existing theories, the Big Five Personality Trait model works multifunctional because it is able to represent various personality trait theories in the same framework. (John and Srivastava, 1999)In recent decade, the Big Five personality trait model has made remarkable progress, and also demonstrated and supported by many research studies, most psychologists regarded it as the best personality model so far (MBA LIB. 2010). The Big Five Personality Trait model highlighted the universality of every dimension in this model. These five traits include (Arnold J et al, 2005): Openness to experiences. This trait describes people, who are interested in many things, appreciation for art, emotion, fantasy, aesthetic, feelings, actions, ideas. Conscientiousness. This trait describes people have a tendency to show their self-discipline, act orderly and dutifully, and personal achievement striving. Extroversion. This trait describes people who treat others warmly, actively, excitement seeking, maintains positive emotions and tends to seek simulation when companying others. Agreeableness. This trait describes people tend to trust others more, being straightforwardness, modesty, tender-mindedness and cooperative with others. Neuroticism. This trait describes people who tend to feel anxiety, angry hostility, depression, self-consciousness etc easily. When assessing a psychological theory or model whether to be successful or not, there are few essential aspects should taken into account. First, when establishing a new theory or model it is important to consider its compatibility with other existing psychological theories. Eysenck derived his PEN model from Cattells 16-factor model and within the same factor analytic psychological model however, they are not contradicted, McMartin proposed the structure of personality is best conceptualized as consisting of five major traits, rather than Eysencks 3 types (McMartin, 1995) (Nathan C. Popkins, 2010) Therefore it is clear to see that the Big Five Personality Trait model is coherent with other factor-analytical models and all these models should not conflicts with each other directly. Some psychologists have assessed the Big Five Personality Trait model by using the Trait Descriptive Adjectives (TDA) and found highly internal consistency and reliabilities, and their factor structure is easily carried out with same method and procedure. (John and Srivastava, 1999.) In recent years, some research studies also showed that the five-factor model is also compatible with other psychological personality models. Some psychologists attempted and already discover the correlation relationship between the Big Five Personality Traits and Freuds famous psychoanalysis theories. (Huey and Weisz, 1997) Although they only found out the relationship between some elements of Freuds psychoanalysis theory and some elements of the Big Five Personality Trait, it also helps for proving of the compatibility and adaptability of the Big Five Personality Trait. Secondary, a successful psychological theory or model should also be capable to apply widely such as in clinical and organizational field, and it also needs to maintain in a high degree of consistency. McAdams suggested that the Big Five Personality Trait model is more like a list with five dimensions which is helpful to specify and classify personality traits than a psychological theory (McAdams, 1992). To apply the model into academic field to find its effectiveness, Digman (1990) claimed that the Big Five Personality Traits model provides a useful view of broad dimensions that characterize human individual differences. These dimensions can be measured with high level of reliability and impressive validity. (Digman, 1990, page 436) Digman had summed up that the Big Five Personality Traits model applies well for providing the personality traits structure. (Digman 1990) As its advantages of being simplified and systematical, it has been agreed by many researchers. As Jianan Zhong and Jinyun Duan (2004) indicated that they thought the Big Five Personality Traits is a well established model for describing personality traits. For a long time, researchers have realized that the number of major personality traits is actually less the Catells 16 factors and Eysencks 3 factors, therefore 5 factors seemed to be a reasonable choice. At the meanwhile, there are some criticisms raised. First, it is a non-explainable descriptive model, it cannot be said that there is only 5 factors to identify human personality traits (Eysenck, 2001). Second, the Big Fives advocates assumed that the five variables are independent to each other; however the situation is not always so (Eysenck, 2001). Third, there are still arguments among the meaning of these five variables, it has been limited by the different adjectives in different language systems thus the compatibility of t he model has been questioned. Fourth, many different ideas on how many should we number for the factors appears, there are 3, 4, 6, 7 factors separately. And finally, the Big Five Personality Traits is not capable and suitable for all cultural backgrounds; apart from the United States, researchers should carry out their own local studies (Boies K et al., 2001) (Ashton M C et al., 2000.). Is there any ways to measure our five personality traits? In 1985, Costa and McCrae brought up a questionnaire to measure the Big Five Personality Traits NEO-PI (Costa P T, McCrae R R. 1985, 1989). After that, they came up with the new edited version NEO-PI-R and NEO-FFI. They made this personality model becoming measurable; however, there are also criticisms. Frame of reference effects (Schmit M J, Royan A M, 1993) is one of the concerning, a reliable result will gain from some of the volunteer respondents, for those are not volunteers, such as a job seeker, they might be truthful on the description of themselves, they will characterize themselves as being reliable, hard-working and organized etc to get the job position. Therefore this may lead to the raising of general ideal-employees. Despite the inadequate aspects, the Big Five Personality Traits model still has advantages. It provided an integrated theory framework; it is simple which is consistent with economic principles. For this reason, there are huge amount of application researches about industry and organizational psychology in recent years. Since the research carried out about the correlation relationship between the Big Five Personality Traits model and the job performance, there is an agreed conclusion that this personality traits model can predict job performance, especially contextual performance (Goliath. 2010.). In these five major traits, conscientiousness is the most effective predictor. A research in 2000 (Gregory M.H et al., 2000) has demonstrated the above conclusions in advance, it also took into account of various job type and diverse performance criterion, and the findings showed that the agreeableness has the better prediction to the service job, openness to experience has the better prediction to the managerial job type, conscientiousness works the most effectively to predict different job types and different performance criterion. Jeffrey et al. (2001) carried out a research study to measure 276 students personality dimensions by using NEO-PI-R. The subjects were placed in a group decision-making scenar io to observe the task performance and contextual performance, and the contextual performance has been divided into cooperative behavior and voice behavior. The so-called voice behavior refers to the creative and constructive communicational behavior for the purpose of improving the environment, change the orientation. Detailed content includes providing constructive suggestions to the organization, such as how to improve the organization; how to perform the task; persuade others to accept new ideas, advices and guidance etc. The results showed that agreeableness is significantly positive correlated to the cooperative behavior; however it is significantly negative correlated with voice behavior. The research findings also supported the point of view of dividing the contextual performance into cooperative behavior and voice behavior. In order to investigate the interactional relationship between agreeableness and conscientiousness to the task performance, Witt (2002) use the personality questionnaire with 120 items to measure five factors in seven companies with different job types, it used higher assessment as main method to assess the task performance. The findings showed that, there are 5 out of 7 indicated that the staff with high conscientiousness but low social ability is ineffective especially in the situation where the cooperation with others is essential. In another word, among these work situations, the correlation between conscientiousness and task performance is influenced by agreeableness. Higher agreeableness works better than low agreeableness. It is easy to see that the Big Five Personality Traits model is able to predict task performance well and in particular the contextual performance. Jennifer et al. (2001) gathered 149 staff with different job types to carry out the research study about the relationship between openness, conscientiousness and creative behavior by using the questionnaires. NEO-FFI was used to measure openness and conscientiousness, the creative behavior was assessed by higher assessment. The result showed that, when the environment allows the personality to express, openness will accelerate the occurrence of creative behavior, whereas conscientiousness will block it. This seems to be contradicted to the above research findings of conscientiousness is a predictor of good task performance, the key issue here is the environment is also an important factor. It is valuable to conduct further research to stimulate staff with high conscientiousness but low openness to reach their potential of creativity. Costa and McCrae (Li Wang et al. 2000) also suggested that when dealing with the life stress events, people with higher openness would like to use a variety of coping strategies effectively. Because when facing the new environment, people with higher openness tends to be patient to discover, therefore they feel less tense when dealing with changes, they can manage to cope with the changes within the organization. The Big Five Personality Traits model can also be applied with the research about job satisfaction. Timothy (2002) gathered 334 relevant data among 163 dependent samples about personality traits and job satisfaction to do the meta- analysis. The findings indicated that openness and conscientiousness are significantly negative correlated with job satisfaction. Besides, David et al. (2002) conducted the research between the Big Five Personality Traits model and self-respect. The result showed that the self-respect is significantly negative correlated with neuroticism and is significantly positive correlated with extroversion, whereas there is no significant correlation with openness and agreeableness. Piers (2002) did the investigation on the relationship between the Big Five Personality Traits model and self well-being. The findings showed that neuroticism is significantly negative correlated with self well-being, however openness is positive correlated with self well-being, whereas there is no significant correlations between other factors and self well-being. Openness and job satisfaction, self-respect and self well-being all positive correlated, however, neuroticism is significantly negative correlated with all of these. In other words, neuroticism and extroversion are closely related with the life functions. To sum up the above applied research of the Big Five Personality Traits model, we can conclude that despite the consideration of cognitive and intellectual factors, this personality traits model can be used as a predictor during the selection and employee allocation. General speaking, conscientiousness has the better prediction to the task performance. For service work, agreeableness is an excellent predictor. For creative work, for instance, strategy planning, advertisement, art, literature etc, openness predicts better than other dimensions. For managerial work, extroversion predicts better than other dimensions. Besides, Barry and Stewart (Yufan Liu et al, 2002) also found out that within a group of people, the team performance carried out the best when the proportion of openness is adequate. Too much or too few openness people would not be conducive to the improvement of team performance. Unstable neuroticism has a negative impact on individuals in many ways; hence we should control our emotion wisely to improve individuals emotional stability. In a larger sense, the Big Five Personality Traits model provides us a reference to understand and shape our personality traits. Every positive outcome such as stable emotions, openness or agreeableness, conscientiousness, extroversion will help people to build a relatively perfect self.

My Desire to be an Early Childhood Special Education Teacher Essay

My Desire to be an Early Childhood Special Education Teacher Imagine yourself to be a young child sitting in a classroom. The teacher has given instructions, and everyone is working, except you. You want to raise your hand, but are hesitant due to the fear of being laughed at. The teacher scolds you for not being on task, and for having to perhaps stay afterwards to catch up on your work. You feel ashamed and want to give up altogether. The teacher glares at you waiting for you to start your work. This example is one that I do not want to have my students experience in the classroom. I have the desire to become an Early Childhood Special Education teacher. I want to assist the child that feels lost, or does not catch on as quickly as the other children. I want the nature of the students to be relaxed, and energetic. I want the children to be curious and involved in every aspect of the learning process. I hope that the students will learn through hands on activities, as well as group and visual lessons. The students in my class should feel that the classroom...

The Symbolism of Self Violence Essay -- Psychology Papers

The Symbolism of Self Violence I enrolled in this class in semiotics in order to see if the semiotic approach would give me a greater understanding or give meaning to what I do for a living. It seems natural that I would try to employ the method with the problems that vex me the most. I hope that any reader of this text will appreciate the attempt at interpretation of meaning and not focus on the sensationalism or strangeness of the behaviors that I will describe. I must give credit for the idea of looking at the symbolism of self-violence to James Gilligan in his book, "Violence" in which he examines the symbolism of violence towards others (Gilligan , 1996) . This paper is an attempt to bring meaning or understanding to the behaviors of the residents where I am employed, specifically self-inflicted harm or self-injurious behaviors. I will first describe the behaviors, then define them in the theories that I have used for many years, and finally attempt to make meaning from the behaviors through semiotics.

North Korea: Nuclear Friend or Foe? :: Nuclear proliferation

North Korea: Nuclear Friend or Foe? Introduction It is 2025. After decades of bickering and intense fighting, India and Pakistan finally break out into general war. Millions are killed in the nuclear exchange. Other countries are drawn into the fray, ultimately widening the landscape of war. The death toll reaches a billion lives. In essence, you are witnessing a nuclear holocaust. Fortunately, this is a completely fictitious event; something one would think was straight out of a movie. The scary part is that as more and more countries begin to acquire nuclear weapons, further nuclear research, and pursue other nuclear-related projects, this can be very real. It might happen in ten years, a few months, or even – tomorrow. The issue of nuclear proliferations is an issue of much concern by the United States. Since its creation back in the 1940s through the Manhattan project, the atomic bomb has been the bane of society, in terms of the level of potential threat it holds for the international community. The focus of this paper looks at U.S. policy towards nuclear proliferation, both past and present, with a special focus on the status of North Korea. For some analysts and many governmental officials, North Korea seems to be the next big threat to U.S. and international security. Proponents of this belief cite statements made by North Korea, efforts to enrich used fuel rods, and other pursuits to utilize nuclear power in some way or other. In an effort to really break down on a critical level the United States’ approach towards the country of North Korea, this paper examines not only the historical context of U.S./North Korea relations, but also the U.S. stance towards proliferation among such countries as Iran, Libya, Israel, India, Pakistan, and other countries. In using other countries to compare and contrast U.S. policy, hopefully this will bring about some sort of rationale behind the approach to North Korea. Understandably, the issue is way more complex than just a chosen stance towards each individual country. History, political balance, as well as, the intent of the U.S. administration at the time shape the policy instituted toward the particular country. A Colored History On June 27, 1950, President Harry S. Truman â€Å"authorized the use of American land, sea, and air forces in Korea; a week later, the United Nations placed the forces of 15 other member nations under U.

Transformational leader vs. transactional leader

In order to accept or reject the statement â€Å"Do you see your choice as transformational leader vs. transactional leader in line with the above statements by William and Susan Bridges?†, one has to study in details. Transformational leaders encourage others to perform better than they originally planned and frequently even better than they considered potential. Such leaders set more demanding expectations and classically attain higher performances. According to Bridges (2000) transformational leadership is an opening out of transactional leadership while transactional leadership highlights the transaction or exchange that takes place among leaders, colleagues, and followers. This exchange is founded on the leader conversing with others what is essential and identifying the conditions and rewards these others will obtain if they accomplish the necessities. Proper transformational leaders lift the level of moral development of those whom they lead. They convert their followers into leaders. They expand and enlarge the wellbeing of those whom they lead. They encourage their associates, colleagues, followers, customers, and even their bosses to go further than their personal self-interests for the good of the group, organization, or society. Transformational leaders concentrate on each follower's intellect of self-worth in order to engage the follower in true dedication and contribution in the endeavor at hand. This is one of the things that transformational leadership inserts to the transactional exchange. Transformational leadership is more effectual than transactional leadership in producing the additional attempt, pledge, and contentment of those led. Transformational leaders perform better with colleagues and followers than set up effortless exchanges. They act in manners to attain higher outcomes by employing one or more of the four components of transformational leadership. First, leadership is viewed through rose-tinted glasses when followers search to recognize with their leaders and imitate them. Second, the leadership motivates the followers with confront and influence that present connotation and understanding. Third, the leadership is rationally inspiring, expanding the followers’ use of their capabilities. Lastly, the leadership is independently caring, providing the followers with facilitation, mentoring, and coaching. Transactional leadership takes place when the leader rewards a follower based on the competence of the follower's recital. Transactional leadership depends on dependent underpinning, either optimistic reliant reward or the more unenthusiastic active or passive shapes of management-by-exception. (Bridges, 2000) It is concluded that transformational leadership supports to transactional leadership in its effects on follower contentment and recital. Transformational leadership does not substitute transactional leadership. That is, productive and in particular remedial connections may have only minor impact on followers unless accompanied by one or more components of transformational leadership for getting the most out of transactions. Hence the statement is accepted. References Bridges, William, and Susan Mitchell Bridges â€Å"Leading Transition: A New Model for C

Archimedes Principle

Applications of Archimedes Principle 1. Submarine A submarine has a large ballast resistor store, which is used to control its position and judgment from the step up of the sea. A submarine submerges by letting water into the ballast tank so that its clog becomes greater than the delightful press (and vice versa). It floats by lessen water in the ballast tank. -thus its weight is less than the blithe staff office. 2. Hot- pedigree amplify The nimbus is filled with air that exerts buoyant event on any object.A hot air expand rises and floats due to the buoyant force (when the surrounding air is greater than its weight). It descends when the balloon weight is more than the buoyant force. It becomes nonmoving when the weight = buoyant force. The weight of the Hot-air balloon can be controlled by change the quantity of hot air in the balloon. 3. Hydrometer A hydrometer is an dick to measure the relative dumbness of gass. It consists of a tube with a bulb at one end.Lea d shots are placed in the bulb to weigh it down and change the hydrometer to float vertically in the liquid. In a liquid of lesser minginess, a greater volume of liquid must be displaced for the buoyant force to equal to the weight of the hydrometer so it sinks lour. Hydrometer floats high in a liquid of higher density. Density is thrifty in the unit of g cm-3. 4. move A ravish floats on the surface of the sea because the volume of water displaced by the institutionalise is enough to have a weight equal to the weight of the ship.A ship is constucted in a way so that the shape is hollow, to make the overall density of the ship lesser than the sea water. Therefore, the buoyant force acting on the ship is large enough to support its weight. The density of sea water varies with location. The PLIMSOLL aura marked on the body of the ship acts as a guideline to tick that the ship is loaded within the golosh limit. A ship submerge lower in fresh water as fresh water density is le sser than sea water. Ships will float higher in cold water as cold water has a comparatively higher density than warm water.

Bhattacharjee, cause of the article why Bilinguals are Smarter, states, In a bilingualists hotshot both lecture systems be fighting(a) hazard up when he is victimization only one words, consequently creating situations in which one system obstructs the other (Bhattacharjee 1). Students must unceasingly arrange which style their listeners get out meet and render the correct wrangle and grammatical set to use with that crabby manner of speaking. though it baron seem awful overwhelm at first, Bhattacharjee concludes that this affray . . . isnt so over a great deal a hinder as a state of grace in clo ak , . . . forcing the idea to reason inner(a) conflict, die-looking the mind a physical exertion that strengthens its cognitive muscles (Bhattacharjee 1-2).Students fluid in a opposed style act instanter to one picture, sentence, or idea with both answers from devil antithetical lectures. sometimes one picky style carries a break out account or translation than another, and for the student silvern in a sustain oral communication, the prospect is open to steady down which wrangle make better suits real situations.

Students tush be taught, or teach others from two immensely assorted spheres of benevolence and not be overwhelmed. trey and finally, eloquence in a universe(prenominal) language creates alone(p) opportunities. volubility in a remote language gives rum change of location opportunities. patch discussing diverse advantages pron e to distant language students, Dincay shares that although thousands of passel form from their travels across the earthly concern each and every year, it is the bilingual students, particularly, which call for the overmuch broader traveling experience. time common tourists stop only if outsiders peering through a meth into another hoidenishs eccentric refinement, those known with and silverish in the essential spit are able to shout beyond that trash prohibition and bear a go at it their visits with total blue-blooded and liberty (Dincay 2). Whether tour historical landmarks, victimisation human beings raptus systems, or obtain in local anaesthetic markets, students quiet in the extraneous language of the rural are not limit to winning pictures, relying on others directions, or geting(a) suggested prices.They may come on questions over history, follow affix conveyancing signs, and stack for better values. articulateness in a contradic tory play gives traveling students an probability to stand out with something superfluous that most tourists basinnot claim.

As the world advances in higher education and technology, men across the formal are seeking to make resources on hand(predicate) to all. As one manager in the mettle for utilize philology shares, The need for individuals who can speak and reckon languages other than position is swell . . . from business and kindly invent to national guarantor and fineness (Malone et al. 1). A stronger snap on internationality is emerging, making interaction with muckle from different lingual backgrounds inevitable. chapiter evidence University advertises a pamphlet that considers vocations such as government, business, law, treat and health care, teaching, technology, the military, communications, industry, accessible service, and merchandising to be bright palm for students fluent in a min language, videlicet because an employer sees them as a span to new clients or customers ( sagacious new(prenominal) manner of speakings Brings Opportunities 2). Students fluent in a extraneous language can easily come to businesses with customers from a wide army of linguistic backgrounds and handle international business without hiring outsiders to translate. progress in a secondment language is a skill envied and sought- afterward(a) after by several(prenominal) employers as they seek to call for a staff to pay heed and urge forward their geological formation to its maximal potential. blandness in a unlike language should be compulsory for all students before graduation from high school. The advantages produced from foreign language fluency are undreamed and the opportunities limitless. Students are set up for undefeated futures in red-brick society as they perish high sch ool and intonation into the career world as puppyish big(p)s, able to pass along freely and work confidently in global communities close to the world.
