Introduction

Some organizations are successful while others are not successful. There has been arguments as to what causes some organizations to succeed and what causes others to fail.

My initial reaction to the media presented in both videos, (Laureate Education, 2012) was hopeful. I think sometimes we put a lot of pressure on ourselves, as new counselors, to have all the answers and to know exactly who we are, as professionals and how we would approach any scenario that we are presented with. As such, it was empowering to hear Dr. Marszalek (2012) confirm that its ok to not know what our personal theoretical approach is, and to confirm that this will develop over time, as the result of our experiences, as opposed to us needing to ...

As I sat in the back seat to my car, it was like all of my life was flashing before my eyes. My parent’s faces were the most dominating part of my daydream. I could imagine them smiling, and I could also imagine fear on their faces, and pride and disappointment. I had seen their expressions too many times to know the sentiment behind each and every emotion that played across their faces. That day, however, I saw them coming out of the five-bedroom house that I had inhabited until today, and I was out of guesses as ...

Same Sex Marriage

In 2015, the United States Constitution ruled that nationwide, states could not ban same-sex marriage (Same-Sex). This highly contested ruling thereby states that all states must issue marriage licenses to all couples, opposite or same sex. While many people see this is a negative, a vast majority of people see this ruling as what it is: a set in stone (for the time being) rule that all people, regardless of sexual orientation, are equal and do not deserve discrimination in the form of being denied rights and being denied the benefits that a marriage can bring. In Florida in ...

Module 4

Dear Jennifer, I like the way you have related the discussion to a real-world situation and I am sure that everybody in our class must have got annoyed by a mundane survey. This is probably because of the threat of revelation of private information or just because the surveyer is not able to communicate the core essence of his survey. Rather majority of surveyers end up saying- Hey, I am here to conduct a survey!. I believe that right from the beginning of interaction, it is the non-communicative approach of the surveyer that alienate the respondent and the latter ...

Over the course of history, Japan has been isolated from the rest of the world. Due to the absence of influence of globalization, this country had its unique norms, rules, customs, and traditions unaffected by factors of the external world. “There is not the slightest doubt that culture has a deep and persuasive influence on the Japanese” as well as on the Japanese economy and other crucial domains of life in the country (Woronoff, 2001, p. 39).

Westwood & Johnson (2005, p.6) have mentioned to, ‘ensure that all aspects of your orientation program reflect the unique culture of the organization and that messages about values are both explicitly ...

1) What is your opinion on hate crime legislation? Is it justifiable? Why/ Why not? In my opinion hate crime criminalization is justified as it helps in protecting citizens from all types of violence which is based on their appearance, their sexual preferences, and their religion. In 2009, the PMO reported that in the last decade around 12,000 crimes reported were based on a victim’s sexual orientation (CNN N.pag). The bill to legalize hate crime that added sexual orientation to the previous crimes against race, religion, disability, or ethnicity was a huge step towards the overcoming struggle ...

Situation variables affect task motivated and relationship motivated differently that are two different styles according to the contingency theory. The first is focused on the reaching goals and second on building a friendly atmosphere.

Those three variables influence leader’s performance in different situations (Seyranian, 2012). In the situation with weak relationship, low power and unstructured goals, task motivated leaders show good performance. On the other hand when the situation is moderate without proper structured ...

Introduction

The case for sex against gender as bipolar concepts is controversial. If anything, "gender" has arisen as an increasingly adopted concept in social sciences as part of feminist postulations about "inherent" differences between women's femininity and men's masculinity, particularly as to emphasize "gender" as a basis for social and cultural distinction and "sex" as a biological difference between women and men (Haig, 2004). This distinction appears, however, to be more than a linguistic one. Further, in being adopted, both concepts appear to raise calls for re-examination of initial usages – and, for that matter, applications – of both concepts as to ...

UniversityAccommodating Gender Identity

Gender identity and gender roles have been going through drastic changes over the last few years. Gender roles have been strictly challenged as women are continuing to do well in the work force, and yet there is still so much about gender identity that is misunderstood.

This is especially true considering that the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM) still labels the dislocating feeling of ...

The paper focuses on understanding the pedagogical and andragogical approaches of learning and instruction. Pedagogical approach is usually curriculum based learning imparted by the teachers for making the learners understand the basic concept on which their future learning will be based.

Businesses are embedded with ethical obligations and so are the business functions such as ‘marketing’.

The Constitution of The United Sates guarantees each citizen the right of free choice and liberal expression of the thoughts, ideas, beliefs and, in my opinion, the sexual orientation as well. The year 2015 was a very significant one in the process of legalization of homosexual marriages. On June 25, 2015 the Supreme Court of the United States pronounced the permission for homosexual to get married freely. According to Wikipedia in 2015 4 percents in 1000 people consider themselves as homosexual (2 gays and 2 lesbians) and four in 1000 indentify themselves as bisexual. Nearly 63 percents of Americans ...

The most salient features of the American society are those relating to individualism and perception of various inequalities existing within the nation.

Due to these observations, the United States holds a very high score on the individualism indicator and a relatively low position concerning the “power distance” (The Hofstede Centre, n.d.; Hofstede, 2011). According to Hofstede’s survey results, ...

Introduction

It is challenging to fathom exactly what drives people towards accomplishment in life, but there are some reasons to believe that both external and internal forces play significance roles in motivation. “Motivation is the particular word commonly used to describe the situation of self-determination” (Deci & Ryan, 2014). The theory of motivation developed by Deci and Ryan (2014), suggest that individuals are necessarily driven by the need to grow to gain personal fulfillment. However, where does that motivation stems from? Deci and Ryan (2014) explain that “self-determination influences people towards accomplishing such tasks."

Introduction Back in the first century AD, Stoic philosopher Epictetus observed that people become disturbed “not so much by events as by the views which they take of them” (Scott and Dryden, 2003). With this observation, Epictetus seemed to point out that, in viewing all the objects found in the visual world, situations are viewed from some distinctive angles than from others, and humans have the freedom to choose their orientation. This personal orientation, on the other hand, is influenced by a person’s beliefs and how they see themselves in relation to the world. How people view certain ...

Introduction

Traditionally, Islam has been standing on guard against the proliferation of sexual depravity. Together with other fundamental religions, the Quran and its commentaries strongly prohibit 'untraditional' sexual relationships both, inside and outside the matrimony. Kecia argues that traditional schools of the Islamic law describe any homosexual act as sinful and punishable (Kecia, 79). The majority of countries, where Sharia law regulates social order, define homosexuality as legally or socially persecuted (and many of them the both restraints are in force). In the most orthodox countries, like Afghanistan, Nigeria, and Saudi Arabia any homosexual intercourse is punishable by the death ...
