Essays on Transition

Abstract

The paper focuses on the role of commercial banks in the economic revival of transition economies.

However, the commercial banks managed to finance the viable enterprises, advise the managers, and liquidate non-viable enterprises that managed to revive ...

The majority of new nursing graduates (NGs) make their initial transition to professional practice when they step into the hospital environment. This poses many challenges, which include clinical errors, nervousness, demoralization, and difficulty in adapting to the socio-cultural changes (Bowles & Candela, 2005).

Population growth in Japan has hit an alarming state, with Japan being identified as one of the countries in the world with a deficit growth rate. The population growth rate presents a deficit of 0.077. This means the country risks having less people than it presently has in the next few years. The population effects of a declining growth rate are wide and affect all sectors in the population including a drift in the economic development in the country (White, 2001). However, if the government alters people’s needs in terms of education, infrastructure, and health, the population may rise. This paper analyzes ...

Transitional Theory Understanding transitional theory and how it applies to young graduate nurses become professional registered nurses has undergone a lot of attention. While quite a number of scholarly and peer-reviewed research materials are available in print and electronic media, the studies of Duchscher (2008), Farnham (1993) and Edgington & Bruce (2006) are considered to understand and answer the question on how transition theory can be used to prepare students for practices as a Graduate nurse.

Although all the three states claim independence from the greater China, there is usually confusion because all of them have ...

The study explored the homological characteristics of 22 species. The organisms were human, pygmy chimpanzee, common chimpanzee, gorilla, orangutan, white-handed gibbon, macaque (Cercopithecine monkey), horse, bison, cat, dog, bird, bat, frog, rattlesnake, alligator, fish, whale, wolf, pig, bacteria, and cow. The species were categorized as mammals, reptiles, birds, fish, or amphibians. However, humans and apes were further classified as primates. Moreover, the research sought to determine whether the species share characteristics that link them to a common ancestor. The research hypothesis was that if the evolutionary path of the 22 organisms were traced, then a common ancestor would be observed.

Genesis - Schultz’s leadership model

Great leaders usually have certain characteristics that make them special. For any organization to be successful, then they should have great leaders with special characteristics. This research will evaluate the leadership of Howard Schultz whom I believe is a leader who possesses the characteristics of a good leader.

According to leadership theories, a good leader takes care of the other employees’ needs. They should help the other employees to work through activities such as delegation (Michael, 1). In addition, the leaders should allow employees to give their ideas that can assist the organization. Howard Schultz reports that good leadership involves observation of ...

Definition

When it comes to defining professional socialization, it becomes very difficult to give it a precise definition because there is not a single agreed definition of it. There are different definitions of professional socialization offered by different scholars.

Professional socialization is a kind of learning process in which individuals acquires norm, values, culture, attitudes ...

According to many scholars, the neoclassical period of literature transitioned into the romantic period of literature in 1798 when the “Lyrical Ballads” was ...

Instances of cyber or digital crime have been on the increase. Some scholars have argued that this was inevitable given the increasingly digital nature of the world in the twenty first century.

This submission contends that the ‘Space Transition Theory’ best explains the cause of digital crime. The theory was advanced by K ...
