Herzberg theory suggests that various factors usually affect individual’s satisfaction at the job place. Few factors result in job satisfaction, these include motivators, there are others that lead to job dissatisfaction, and they include hygiene factors at the job place. Motivation can thus be defined as incentives that result in positive satisfaction in the workplace. They are intrinsic conditions while hygiene factors are extrinsic conditions. The absence of hygiene factors causes dissatisfaction while their availability provides high motivation levels. Five-factor model is a theory that helps psychologists to determine the personality of a person and their psyche. Specifically, ...

I have always been interested in working with other people and having the opportunity to communicate with others. Through communication people find out a lot of new information and share it with others as well. That’s why I have decided to become an educator in future. Teaching people is a constant process of teaching oneself too as every day we discover new things and new facts. But even more important is the following: being an educator we bring light into areas which need it, into special communities which have no access to studying and self-development in this particular ...

Introduction

Leadership today is viewed as a social process wherein leaders and followers interact effectively and participate actively in the leadership actuations (Goertzen, 2013). With the growing proliferation of leadership and leadership development theories, which focused on the educational, experiential, and cultural factors involved in effective leadership, the conceptual environment of leadership is naturally set at showing off the self-made nature of leadership today. However, close observation on the natural behaviors of children will inspire questions on the validity of the claim that leaders are made, not born. A child in the play, for instance, who takes initiative in organizing ...

INTJ is one of the most strategically capable and rarest personality types. It is usually a challenge for individuals having this type of personality to find their like-minded people who can keep up with their chess-like maneuvering and persistent intellectualism. They are imaginative yet decisive, amazingly curious, ambitious yet private, but they do not waste their energy. Also, they show a natural desire for knowledge in their early life and hence are usually referred as “bookworm”. They enjoy sharing what they know and are confident in their mastery of their preferred subjects, but due to their Judging (J) and ...

Studying personality traits is important because they can predict essential consequences of everyday concerns such as health, occupational achievement, marital satisfaction, divorce, and even mortality (Ozer & Benet-Martinez, 2006; Roberts, Kuncel, Shiner, Caspi, & Goldberg, 2007 as cited by Roberts, 2009). One can then say that having a good grasp of personality traits can better someone’s life by shaping it up to produce good results. Roberts (2009) actually claimed that the goal of the parents is to teach their children to have personality traits—qualities that will help children no matter what situation they got themselves into. Different definitions have ...

Leading ethically is understood to be a process of query, asking questions' concerning what is wrong and what is right and a mode of conduct, being a role ...

Human psychology is a field of study that covers plenty of multi-layer concepts and phenomena, which without a doubt will still be studied after hundreds of years. One of those concepts happens to be personality, which in the broadest meaning “refers to important and relatively stable aspects of behavior” (Ewen, 2003, 3). Personality is something that we all possess, is a universal phenomenon, which we however express differently due to our inborn qualities, psychological development and peculiarities of temperament. Personality covers “virtually everything about a person—mental, emotional, social, and physical” (Ewen, 2003, 3), and is an inexhaustible source ...

Digital crimes are crimes committed to compromise the integrity, confidentiality and availability of computer systems or data (Jewkes & Yar, 2013). Digital criminals normally modify, alter, impair or interfere with the access to a digital or computer information system. Criminology theories such as rational choice, social disorganization, ...

Introduction The rise of women top managers in the last decades is almost phenomenal. As early as 2005, female Chief Financial Officers in major American corporations constitutes 7.5 percent of all managers in this position and female Chief Executive Officers around 1.5 percent, a significant increase in representation from the levels (3.0 percent and 0.5 percent, respectively) seen in 1994 (Huang and Kisgen 822). This female representation, though, is still too small to not indicate the presence of culturally defined stereotypical bias against women for the management position, the so-called ‘glass ceiling’ barrier ...

More than often, we hear a person mention that someone is very impressive because of one of his/her personality traits. While one person is liked for one of his qualities, the next person is illustrious for another of his trait. Some personality characteristics come in handy in specific situations whereas they are not useful in other circumstances. Thus, it is not correct to say that some personality traits are more important than others. Rather, the answer to this question is purely circumstantial. The circumstances determine which personality trait is the most important for the person involved. For example, an ...

Is Evolution True?

Is Evolution True? Development can be defined as the fundamental process whereby species that are new develop from earlier species through accumulated changes. Sometimes an evolution is described as "descent with modification". As this process of speciation continues to take place, many species start to appear thus becoming increasingly different, and this continues over time and becomes a pattern. Through many observations of the changes in life forms over time, these models have been developed. Charles Darwin explains that the mechanism on hoe evolution occurs is by natural selection. Having constantly been observed, natural selection role in being the ...

Natural selection can be referred to as a process through which biological traits turn either more or less common within a population as a function of the impact of hereditary traits on the differential reproductive victory of organisms’ interaction with their surroundings. It is a major evolution mechanism. Charles Darwin popularized the term natural selection with an intention to have it compared with artificial selection, now referred to as selective breeding.

On the other hand, having such power has brought about a lot of discrimination towards those viewed as genetic flaws. The effects of trait selection are negative and may continue ...

SUMMARY: School Leadership: Concepts And Evidence by Bush and Glover

There is no clear definition for a leadership. However, it appears that leadership comes in very many aspects. First, leadership can be seen as the ability to influence others intentionally so that to structure the relationships and activities of the organization. Secondly, leadership can be derived from strong personal and professional values that are concerned in explaining and recommending how and what course the leadership influences should take (Bush, & Glover, 2003). Leadership, therefore, requires vision of their organization that is shared among the organization members. However, personal recognition can jeopardize this leadership component. Leadership encompasses management. Since the management is ...

It further brings out the poet as a romantic individual and that to him imagination is not just to be used as a synonym when writing poems by creating some fantasy. The writer saw an opportunity to relate the imagination closely with various intuitions, as well as emotions in his piece of work. ...

The personality trait that tends to irritate me is that of perception, and it is under the Meyer-Briggs personality type indicator. I find it uncomfortable working with someone who can easily be influenced to change their minds when the going gets tough (Bayne,82).

The basis behind it being uncomfortable is the fact that an individual is never willing to share their troubles and blocking everyone around them from the internal beliefs and ideas. As a way of improving one's personality, simple measures like understanding ...

A: In the pea plant, the purple color is the dominant one while the white color is the recessive color. The F1 offspring that had purple colored flowers were 445 while those that had white colored flowers were 437. This gives a phenotypic ratio of almost 1:1. To attain this ratio, a parent with white colored flower (pp) had to be crossed with a heterogeneous purple colored parent (Pp). This can be confirmed by crossing the two patents as shown in the Punette square below.

Psychosocial development incorporates the behavioral advancement of an individual from childhood to adulthood. According to Erikson, personality development is based on the attitudes developed by each individual. The concept displayed by Erickson shows that two people in the same age group can present completely different character traits while reacting to similar life situations. Moreover, the manner in which a person carries himself through one stage determines the success of the succeeding stage. Erickson asserts that there is a crisis at the end of every stage as a person transits to the next stage.

In the first stage the baby has a challenge to ...

The modern study of personality traces its origins to Carl Gustav Jung and his magnum opus Psychologische Typen. Jung postulated that there are functionally 2 axes of personality, the perceiving function and the judging function.

Katharine Briggs and her daughter, Isabel Myers, based their groundbreaking questionnaire on Jung’s analysis while offering minor modifications of the theory. The original goal of the questionnaire was to aid in the empowerment of women in the workplace by determining what jobs they would feel most ...

Why, according to Xenophon, are human beings so difficult to rule?

It is, indeed, difficult to rule human beings. Such is because of the fact that human beings possess the ability to reason, which enables them to become highly susceptible to their desires and decisions. In that case, they become very hard to rule because they do not follow instructions coming from others apart from them right away. For them to follow someone who is sending out orders to them, they have to use their reasoning powers to discern whether such orders are compatible with their line of thinking. Thus, an effective ruler of humans is one that possesses great ...

According to research conducted by Zunker (2005, p. 132), personality traits have two different approaches that define them. These include the nomothetic method and the idiographic one. However, the nomothetic method believes that individuals inherit their personality traits and there is no way the surrounding environment can affect them. However, the idiographic approach to personality differs with the nomothetic one because it draws focus on entire personalities of people. For example, it specializes on factors such as richness and complexity that are imperative in understanding the deeper details of an individual. Ferguson (2009, p. 132) also asserted that there ...

According to Shaun and Gottret (2004), the residual curve refers to the individual demand curve of a firm that is the part of the market demand which is not provided by other competing firms in the market.

Suppose the market demand is D (p) and the supply provided by the other firms is S o (p), then there are several ways to calculate the demand for the firm. The first one is by expressing the relationship ...

Part A: 1: Stay and do nothing

In my opinion I will adopt this attitude in a situation where I either don’t have any personal interest or the responsibility of the situation is upon someone else. This attitude best suits these two situations due to the reasons that we should not try to get involved in some situation for changing anything where we don’t have any interest as we can get into trouble from any negative outcome of the involvement. Similar is the case when someone else is responsible for the outcomes of any approach in a situation.

An example of such situation include a workplace where a ...
