These results will more than likely not change over a period of time. The results are more relevant to an average of times that I have spent ...

Abstract

Efficient teamwork is an important prerequisite of a company’s productivity (Maddux, 1994, p.8). This statement can be substantiated by the fact that synergistic effects arise, when several individuals and entities start to work together. However, as it was emphasized by P.Lencioni (2010), the team-building and subsequent effective functioning of the team requires meeting two criteria (pp.9-10). Firstly, the group of people shall constitute a team by sharing goals, as well as rewards and responsibilities, stemming from the achievement of these goals (Lencioni, 2006, p.9).

“A friend is an investigator upon the slide of whose microscope we live, move and have our being”.

The Devil’s Dictionary by Ambrose Bierce I’ll start by saying that friendship is an essential part of a person’s life. In a sense, friends can be considered soulmates as we choose them in accord with certain criteria.

As a result, only those who “match” us (in accord with that list) become really close. In my opinion, every person has their own definition of friendship and, therefore, qualities of a real friendship may differ from person to ...

Whether or not God exists is one of the most foundational questions humans have asked.

Soren Kierkegaard was one such philosopher. He argued that while God exists, his existence could not be proven and only grasped through faith. Other philosophers and theologians have gone even farther than Kierkegaard and have argued that God’s ...

Dating back to 1916, a Boston surgeon, Ernest Codman, established a set of criteria that sought to improve hospital care (Lombardozzi, 2011, internet).

The 1970s marked the beginning of a period known as divergence, when non-physician stakeholders, such as administrators, began to "define, measure, and report healthcare outcomes" (Lombardozzi, 2011, internet). By the 1980s, the CQI movement was nearly in full swing. ...
