There are various styles of leadership and all leaders portray some version of them. Whether they stick to a particular style, or if use a combination of styles, it is important for a leader to develop a style that is beneficial to their team and that will prove to be effective in leading their projects. Hodgkinson (2009) states that leadership styles are “a soft skill which is often neglected in training” (Hodgkinson, 2009). The problem is that leadership skills cannot be accessed by reviewing a resume or completing a training session. Leaders typically must demonstrate ...

Byzantine art is a general name which is used to describe the artistic products which come from the Eastern Roman Empire, which is sometimes known as the Byzantine, as well those which come from the nations and states which were culturally inherited from the empire. These products were mainly Christian-oriented art even though derived from techniques and forms of Greece and Egypt. This style spread to all other corners of the empire, even in places where the orthodox Christianity was flourishing (Evans &William, 2).

LEADERSHIP

Leadership is the process of influencing someone socially and can sign on the support and help of others in the achievement of a common task. Leadership can also be a process where someone influences a group or an organization towards a common goal. In the organization, there are three styles in leadership that are commonly used. These styles are mainly influenced by the behavior of leaders.

The first style is the authoritarian or autocratic leadership style. This is where a leader does the entire decision making without considering any other person’s suggestions. Leaders in this style don’t think about their subordinates suggestions. ...

Q1.According to DuBrin (2012), S4 leadership style requires a leader to use low relationship and low task behavior in response to followers who are able, willing, and confident to perform any task. When a leader has been dealing with a follower appropriately by using an S4 leadership style and the follower begins performing at performance readiness level R3, it means that the follower was still learning new tasks or the tasks provided were beyond his or her ability. The follower can also have the ability to do the task but is unwilling to do it. Readiness level 3 is where ...

In the article entitled, “Remarks on Mediation and Production,” the authors Soren Andreasen and Lars Bang Larsen make their remark on the currently perceived role and suggested future role of middlemen. Note that these two authors are seasoned artists, writers, critics, and curators. Being middlemen, themselves, the two authors aim to defend the idea that middlemen play a more significant role in shaping the style of production – that middlemen help bring modernity and creativity in the style of production.

Outlining the said article, Andreasena nd Larsen first defined what they mean by the term, “middleman.” Accordingly, they have defined ...

Authoritative decision making style is where the manager decides the goals to be achieved by dictating all the policies and procedures to be followed. In this style of decision making the manager controls and offers directions on all the activities to be carried out without any consultations or participation from the subordinates. He has a clear vision of what he wants achieved and has the knowledge, resources and information to get there (Gonos and Gallo 2013). The manager solely makes the decisions because his employees are incapacitated to help, and he clearly lays down the expectations on each employee. This ...

In our Rotary Club, leadership is based on the situational theory. This theory was created by Hersey and Blanchard and comprises of four situational leadership styles: telling (high task, low people), selling (high task, high people), participating (low task, high people) and delegating (low task, low people) (Weiss, 2011). Our leadership adapts to different scenarios and followers. The leadership is flexible in order to meet changing needs of members and situation. Our club President and team leaders mostly base their decisions on the maturity of the members. The maturity of the members is categorized into psychological maturity and job ...

1. Identify to the best of your ability, the social style of the other person in relationship, providing concrete examples of his/her behavior that support your conclusions about his/her personal style.
One of my remarkable personal experiences with social styles was when I was working as a sales assistant in a retail store. I believe my partner, whose name is Paul, possess an analytical social style. There’s only two of us in our department and so it is impossible not to notice the social styles of one another. My partner, Paul, for instance, is quite reserved. ...

There is no shortcut to success. It is when ordinary people rise beyond their normal expectation to become successful. Studying and working hard leads to success. However, research has it that social-class shapes the future of an individual regardless of the race. Annette Lareau in her book, Unequal Childhoods: Class, Race and Family Life, argue that social class and parenting approaches significantly have impacted on educational and work outcomes (Lareau 2003). It is this particular sentiment that captured my attention. It makes me reflect back to my childhood life, I realize that I didn’t grow up with a sense ...

Each person has his/her own learning style. Take a professional development book and you will find its advocates. Contrary to the believers of this “common knowledge,” this statement is a myth. Reiner and Willingham (2010) debunk this myth and explain why the claim “learning could be improved by matching the mode of instruction to the preferred learning style of the student” is not backed by solid evidence. The following sections are three important discussion points this writer makes about the article.

There is no scientific proof that learning styles exist.

Learning style is defined as “the preferred bodily sense through which one receives information, whether visual, auditory, or kinesthetic” (Reiner & ...

Later, Hemingway was to travel to different parts of Europe including Germany and France eventually becoming the European reporter for the Kansas City Star Newspaper. Hemingway leaves a legacy of novels such as A Farewell to Arms, For Whom the Bell Tolls, and the most famous of all his novels ...

In Toni Morrison’s novel, Beloved, does her style add value and complement the story?

Many readers find the experience of reading Beloved bewildering and confusing. Daniels refers to “Toni Morrison’s intense and challenging narrative,” (5) and refers to “the bewilderments of the novel’s beginning.” (5). Unsurprisingly, Daniels accounts for this confusion and bewilderment by reference to what he calls, “The shifting points of view and the multiple pasts of the narrative. “ (5) However, this essay will argue that Morrison’s’ style is an integral and vital part of the novel’s message and it is in the style and in the reader’s reaction to it that the real meanings of ...

In the first week we learnt about HTTP refers to Hyper Text Transfer Protocol, a term that I had heard about many instances before the first lecture. It is used in telecommunications and networks, and it made me interested in the topic since it was applicable to the internet and websites, and I had used it when browsing the internet although I did not understand its applications fully. It was exciting to learn about the previous version of HTTP (version 1.0) and the newer version that is currently in use, HTTP 1.1. The current version of HTTP is a faster upgrade ...

My initial hypothesis

Young adolescent people approach mathematical problems differently considering their gender. The methods that that the females use to approach mathematical problems are different from the approaches taken by their male counterparts. Traditionally, male students have been said to have a natural ability in mathematics and females have been attributed to less confidence and less learning styles. The thoughts of male students being much better than their female counterparts in mathematics seem real and ones that I can support because males tend to major in mathematical fields than females. Males have proven over time to be more successful in mathematics than ...

- Historical Synopsis
The Second World War of 1939- 1945 is classifed by many as the war that redefined the international hierarchy of nations as the war destroyed and weakened once dominant nations while some rose in dominance. Throughout the war, several critical conflicts had redefined the course of the war, and one of them was the Attack in Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. The Attack not only signaled America’s formal inclusion in the war, but highlighted that the war was not just in Europe but also in the Pacific. In a surprise attack, the Japanese Imperial ...

Communication: Leadership assessment

Highest: 39 Participative, Lowest 32 Authoritarian.
Hence, my style of leadership according to the test is Participative.
I was surely surprised by the test of the results. This is because I always considered myself as the one who exerts higher control or authority on its followers. But the test suggests that my style of leadership is not Autocratic like Napoleon or even task oriented like Florence Nightingale but Democratic like Nelson Mandela. Previously I had another perception in my mind for my style of leadership that was of an authoritarian leader.

My Natural Style

Leadership style is something which often defines the person's actions and behaviors, thereby identifying which style I have is greatly important. Having done the assessment, I have discovered from the results that my natural style of leadership is experience guide, and unnatural one – the ambassador.

In 2012, novelist and journalist Kurt Andersen published an article “You Say You Want a Devolution?” in the magazine Vanity Fair. This is though provoking essay about the unusual standstill in America’s cultural sphere in the past twenty years. The author made the assumption that change in culture has come to a stop and the current cultural situation shows the vivid signs of stagnation. Design and style during the twentieth century used to dramatically change every 20 years, so that anyone could instantly distinguish the images from any given period. In architecture, design, music, and cinema you would ...

Communication is dynamic, especially if seen through the eyes of different cultures. It is important for the communicator to be sensitive to his or her audience in order to get the right message across. This was discussed in Halasek’s work, Pedagogy Of Possibilities. When talking about communication, we see that there are different styles. You can address an audience, have a conversation with someone or communicate in form of a letter or written words. Human communication is strange, not because of the different ways there are to communicate, but how the messages are translated. All three papers on communication have ...

Leadership style Flexibility

Every leader desires to be the best and exceptional in an organization. Based on research by TTI Success Insights, different leadership styles go hand in hand with the task involved and the company in question; thus, effective management is dependent on the style used. It organizes and motivates individuals to accomplish a corporate objective.
As much as each leader has their own style of doing things, they should consider being flexible in each situation. They should lead issue by issue, corresponding with their styles and values, and, be able to determine the leadership a situation requires. For instance, there are ...

Introduction

“Women who seek to be equal with men lack ambition”, said Marilyn Monroe as she was defining the power of women thru their charms and presence, and not thru equal work with men. This concept, according to which femininity is the aspect that most empowers women in relationship with men was developed in various writings of the nineteenth century and comes as a contradiction to the binary relationship man – woman, which suggests that woman is placed on the negative side, as she is disempowered. Three novels, “The Awakening” (Kate Chopin), “Mrs. Spring Fragrance” (Sui Sin Far) and “Maggie: A Girl ...

Parenting forms quite an integral part as far as the upbringing of a child is concerned. The environment under which a child is brought up and the parenting style in place greatly influences the behavior as well the emotions of a child. Collectivism and individualism are cultural models that have been seen through out the years to have a major impact on the style of parenting (Triandis and Harry 2001). Parenting styles that young children are exposed to in different cultures and different scenarios in their stages as they grow determines their perceptions about life and how they relate with other people.

Communication Styles across Ethnic Groups

Introduction
The paper reviews three articles that are aimed at analyzing communication across ethnic groups. The three articles reviewed are based on: non-verbal communication, contrasting communication styles, and strategies for therapist to view diverse people as individuals.

Non Verbal Communication styles across ethnic groups

The article by Vrij, Dragt, & Koppelaar (1992) is very useful in examining the various non-verbal communication styles across ethnic groups. The article tries to discover why there is high employment amongst ethnic minorities in Western European countries. The case of Netherlands is highlighted and it was discovered that the Dutch (minority) were more likely to be employed compared to ethnic minorities— ...

The VARK test has been analyzed and criticized by several people and in several publications, for example:

In August 2009 Walter Leite(Research and Evaluation Methodology program, University of Florida), Marilla Svinicki(University of Texas at Austin) and Yuying Shi also from the University of Florida conducted a test to examine the validity of the scores of the VARK. They mainly focused on the dimentionality of the learning style inventory associated with VARK. From the study it was found that there was preliminary support for the validity of the VARK scores.

There were however concerns about the scoring algorithm and item wording. As a result therefore, it was established that caution needed to be exercised whenever VARK was ...

The British novelist, critic and essayist Virginia Stephen Woolf is considered one of the most authentic writers of England in the period between the First and the Second World Wars. Being discontented with the novels on the basis of the well-known, actual and apparent, Woolf went on her own experimental way. Walking along this path, the writer discovered a more internal, subjective interpretation of life experience, which is reflected in all of her creative works. It is also worth mentioning about the impact of such famous people such as Henry James, Marcel Proust and James Joyce on her work. ...

Activity 1

Leadership, though an important concept in modern day organizations, lacks a single acceptable definition. That is because people associate it with motivation, traits, management etc. Leadership as an idea is seen as a good quality to be aspired for. However, it can justify deficient practice also. As Spicke (2011) points out, public and private organizations differ in their approach and the concept cannot be transplanted directly to public services (p. 45).
According to Goethal and Sorenson (2007), leadership has the following elements. Power in the hands of a leader who can command or direct is significant. If the follower ...

Modernist movement was the catalyst that opened new ways of interpreting art as a tool for political and social discourse reflecting the rise of ideas and improvisation of imagery/performance through the use of contemporary materials available at that time. The term ‘modernist’ ubiquitously dominated the art critiques from the past decades in an attempt to explain the society’s rejection of the traditional iconography of the previous movements. With the advent of rapid industrialization spurred the growth of ideas that defined the social and political landscape of the 20th century. This changes brought by the modernist ideals revolutionized the ...

There are several leadership styles available to leaders to choose from. Successful and effective leaders are those who are able to realize which style needs to be adopted in which situation. In the article chosen about Giant’s head coach Tom Coughlin illustrates this. Coughlin’s inability to mould his behavior according to the team’s requirements was limiting players to show their best performance.
Rigid and authoritarian attitude of leaders de-motivates followers, since; they are bound by too many rules and regulations. Similarly, players of the Giant’s were not pumped about the game which restricted their ...

Introduction

It is said that in this world, change is the only permanent thing. Indeed, changes in the nursing profession and health care industry are inevitable as a result of external and internal catalysts. Policy reforms occur because of social, economic and political pressures. Knowledge is created every day, technology evolves at a fast pace, and consumer demands change. Organisations must respond effectively by modifying their strategic goals, structures, systems, processes, and culture (Anderson & Ackerman-Anderson, 2001). As a result, the professional roles of nurses expand, clinical practices improve, the work environment benefits from redesign, and patients receive better care. For this reason, change ...

The essence of leadership can be summed up as forming good relationships with the people you lead – both between members and with members and the leader. Collaboration is the essence of good leadership, utilizing everyone’s strengths and diminishing their weaknesses. No strategy for effective leadership is the same between two organizations or two leaders – the attitudes and strengths of each member of the team has to be taken into account, as well as the objectives and efficiencies of the organization itself.
My definition of leadership works well with good followship, which involves having members of a group who ...

Abraham Rattner

In one of the paintings of Abraham Rattner entitled “Crucifixion in Yellow”, he used the style of figurative expressionism by combining the traditional themes and incorporating the recognized components of Modernism. The subject of this painting of Rattner became his reaction to the memorable events that took place during the World War II. He used the idea of crucifixion to symbolize the condition of humanity during such time. As part of his personal assessment, he considered himself to be included in this spiritual journey by picturing that he is on the cross to despise the inhumanity done to the ...

Contingency theory is a concept of leadership that argues that there is no best way to do things. It argues that the best way to handle a particular situation would be different from the best way to handle another situation. This means, therefore, that there are no hard and fast rules in leading and organizing and that leadership or organizational behavior that is effective and efficient in some situations would or may not work in others. The theory posits that leadership styles are dependent on numerous internal and external factors and constrains and should, therefore, be analyzed depending on the specific ...

In Richard Florida's essay "The Transformation of Everyday Life," he uses a variety of techniques to get the point across that there have been many subtle yet important social and cultural changes in American over the last century. Florida ultimately comes to the point that these changes occur, for better or worse, because we want them to, in logical and rational ways. Florida's overall style is one of informal, yet insightful and interactive, communication with the reader, allowing them to make the discoveries of the essay along with him.

In the essay, Florida attempts to describe the primary reasons for ...

Bruce Bower’s article, "Shared Talking Styles Herald New and Lasting Romance" discusses the theory that romantic relationships are more likely to last between people with similar language styles. The theory suggests that a couple who similarly use words like “I, it, but and under in everyday conversations” (Bower, 2010) are more likely to experience a long and successful relationship.
It seems to make sense that people who get along well have matching language styles, as being able to relate to each other is based, primarily, on the two people’s ability to communicate with one another. Therefore, people who ...

In the 1980s the society and its surroundings were dull and dark gray. There was no “enlightenment” or even some hints at vivid tones. Although the world was imbued with dark colors and manners, there were plenty of rebels who tried to ruin it. One of the influential innovations, which were done during that period, was graffiti. The era of graffiti began in New York but was widespread all over the world including Paris. This movie describes this era from the very beginning and demonstrates its influence the people, culture, and society in general.
In the very beginning of ...

Works of art can communicate critical information on the times in which they were created. Different time periods and different cultural backgrounds provide the stylistic and media elements of a work of art. There may be no specific intent to portray the times, but that is what happens when the artist creates a work of art in a particular artistic period. Examples of art works from two distinctly different times and cultures will demonstrate how the art in the Medieval period of European history and Pop Art from the late mid-20th century differ.
The Medieval period in art history ...

The paper is well argued. By identifying a host of factors under "How Did This Happen?" section, paper's author offers a detailed background on how current situation has developed. The argument combines effectively an analysis of sociological, legislative and gender-related factors contributing to current situation. For example, in examining a paradox of high education and unemployment for both married and unmarried women in modern Japan, paper's author manages to justify how, upon retirement of a growing number of senior working men, unemployed women have come to gradually replace retired workers and hence daycare center problem.

The change, from the point of view of Machiavelli , has a close relation to the danger that agrees with the three principles of a successful change management. First of all, the change is not an overnight step, but a process itself.

Each side has sponsors that support one option or other by their interest. The change brings a natural resistance from the establishment ...

Firms that do not have the quality human resource face challenges in managing its operations globally and in attracting quality human resource (Farndale, Scullion, and Sparrow, 2010). Therefore it is critical for firms to manage their human resource. For this reason, the practices of human resource management are decisive in the success of the organization. As firms expand their operations to different countries, organizations have to consider a lot more factors than they have to when they are managing an organization that operates in only one country (Adler, 2002). Therefore, the role of international human resource management practices ...

This poem is written by a Greek Lyric poet named Sappho somewhere in the early 6th century. Most of her work was lost or is present in fragments.

Some of the fragments of the poem are provoking and the language is straightforwardly descriptive. For instance the phrases used in the poem, ‘thronging cavalry’, ‘sparkling glance’, ‘glittering armor’. The poem started with the philosophical content and at the end we find ...

J. Ann Tickner: Hans Morgenthau’s principles of political realism: a feminist reformulation

J. Ann Tickner’s article provides an interesting insight into the feminist aspects of political realism. Particularly relevant are the criticisms of Morgenthau’s principles. However, despite the article containing intelligent and well thought out arguments, the formal writing style may serve to put many people off.
Referring to Morgenthau’s portrayal of the international system, Tickner claims that it is, “a partial description of international politics because it is based on assumptions about human nature that are partial and that privilege masculinity” (Tickner).
Tickner points out that masculinity and femininity are socially constructed and are not based ...
