Change management is always a difficult issue, and the makeup of people in an organization—and that organization’s general culture—plays a very significant role in the way that change is handled as a whole. Most researchers suggest that there is a top-down approach that is necessary for appropriate integration of new ideas into institutional culture; change can occur and be accepted only if leadership begins the change process. In this particular discussion, we will discuss the use of the Change Management Simulation and the successes and failures during the duration of the simulation. In addition, assessments will ...

Rome brought light to the darkest and the most barbaric places of the world, and if and when it did, these were areas that posed value to the strategic interests of the empire rather than be regions that needed civilizing. Britain was the island whose unique geography allowed founding a city serving the imperial interests well. Its conquest improved the image of the empire as a formidable force to reckon with and enhanced the reputation of the emperor. Furthermore, the introduction of religious and cultural buildings into Londinium served the ideological purpose of exposing the new subjects to the ...

It is emphasized by the global peacekeeping organizations that countries resolve their conflicts through table talk and that they should refrain from carrying out full on offense against each other. The reason behind this is that when conflicts go violent and turn into wars, then they bring devastation to the public of the related states.
No matter how weak or feeble one of the competitors seems, there is always potential for it to hurt the stronger opponent hard. The illiterate and weaponless militants of the most devastated and unstable region like Afghanistan were able to bring down, ...

The hallmark of human development and socialization is the development of the self. According to Charles Horton Cooley, the development of the 'self' starts by identifying the “I” or “me” of an individual and that is the perception of a person about themselves whether consciously or subconsciously as well as how they think others see them (Newman & Newman, 2015). People get to realize the self through their interaction with their social and 'non- social' environments. Personal identity is also achievable only through the realization of a person’s distinctive personality, but this is said to be a tedious life ...

One definition of conservatism states that a situation tends to remain static unless acted upon by a strong external force. In the world of major college football, tradition and fiscal conservatism have combined for years to preserve a system by which a tight circle of resource-rich powerhouse programs hold sway from year to year. The major bowl games, the nearly exclusive preserve of the nation’s football elite, serve as NCAA football’s branding identity but do little to determine a quantifiable national champion. A powerful cabal of athletic directors, commissioners, university presidents and other officials maintain the sanctity of the lucrative bowl system. In ...

Until recently, genetic foods have become popular for their ability to address many production and quality issues faced by natural/organic farming methods. Genetically modified crops are those whose genetic makeup has been improved to enhance the level of nutrients, resistance to diseases, increase yields, adaptability to climatic factors, and reduce the time of production (Ronald & Adamchak, 2008). It is different from the conventional breeding because genetic modification allows introduction of genes from any organism (animal and plants) in altering crops whereas breeding allows transfer of genes across related species only.
On the other hand, organic farming is a natural ...
