...Geoff Powell 4/30/14 Org. Behavior Apprentice Synthesis I. The first principal learning I took from the Apprentice series is having a balance of a manager to take charge and lead while knowing when to pull back and let your employees do the tasks they are assigned to do. Throughout the series there are many examples of project managers who did poorly in this area. In episode 1 Erika on team Protégé tried to huddle her team and create a game plan but never made a decision and moved on to the next task at hand. An incident that occurred vice versa was during episode 2 when Sam was the project manager and was too harsh on making decisions and micromanaging his teammates who felt that his leadership was inconsistent. Lastly in the last episode, Kwame showed a leadership style of being more laid back which led Omarosa to make pivotal mistakes, while Bill was so frenzied during his gold tournament that those under him felt like they were micromanaged at times because he had to make sure that every task was completed and done the right way. II. The next principal learning I took from the show was that when managing a team or group and you have people who wonder off and become problems, it is your job to real them back in and motivate them at the task at hand. In the beginning of class you said managing someone is manipulation. Although this is an intense way to describe it, in this case, it is the only word appropriate. In episode 2, Jason was the project manager for Versacorp...

...Paul Manafort, who was President Donald Trump’s campaign chairman, is accused of a conspiracy against the United States and illegal obtainment of money. He now has a tough road ahead of him and as a result, needs a victory in his upcoming trial. If he does not get it, he may have to spend up to 80 years in prison. Given the strength of the FBI case, it is going to be almost impossible for Manafort to get out without paying some type of price. Paul Manafort was born into a real-estate family and was involved in many political works throughout his life time. In 1976 he advised President Gerald Ford’s campaign and started to establish deep and sometimes dark connections in Washington and around the world. Democrats in the state of Washington were always suspicious about his international work and now in 2017 they will find out about how they were right to have their doubts about Manafort. Manafort campaigned for Donald Trump, and now is being accused of committing several federal crimes before and after he was Donald Trumps campaign manager. (Relman and Bertrand) On Monday October 30th, Paul Manafort was charged with several federal crimes. One of the crimes he was accused of committing was a conspiracy against the United States. He planned to confer offenses against, and to defraud the US government. “The Justice Department indicted Manafort on 12 counts, primarily money laundering and false statements, none of which involved his work for Trump. The oldest of the allegations...

...Name: Alan Sugar Born: 24/03/1947 (Age: 66) From: Hackney, London Famous for: He's the man who loves to say "You're Fired!" on his hit television show, The Apprentice. Relationship status: Sir Al is married to his wife Ann. Twelve years younger than his three older siblings, Alan Sugar was the child of low-income, working-class Jews and raised in Upper Clapton Road - England. By the age of 12, he was rising at 6am every day to boil beetroots for a local ‘greengrocer’. Four years later, Sir Alan's earnings, after school and at weekends, were far better than his father, Nathan, who worked in a tailoring sweatshop. Leaving school at the age of 16, Sugar proceeded to obtain a post in which he worked briefly for the civil service as a statistician in the Ministry of Education. He also started selling car aerials and electrical goods out of a van he had bought from his £50 savings. In 1968, aged 21, he set up his own business, selling electrical products from intercoms to retractable car antennas and called it Amstrad, referring to (Alan Michael Sugar Trading). The company began as a general importer/exporter and wholesaler, but soon specialized in consumer electronics. By 1970, the first manufacturing venture was underway. He achieved lower production prices by using injection moulding plastics for hi-fi turntable covers, severely undercutting competitors who used vacuum-forming processes. Manufacturing capacity was soon expanded to include the production of audio amplifiers...

...Randa Shafik COLL148 Professor Bell Course Project Proposal My Personal Plan for Success is Based on the Fundamentals of my Role Model, Donald Trump Donald Trump is not only a successful businessman, but is also a role model to most people who aspire to be the best at what they do. As I move forward with my education I look up to him as guide for how I would want to run not only a business, but also any event or occasion that comes up. I choose Mr. Trump not only because he a successful businessman, but he is also a candidate for the 2016 presidential elections taking place now. I look up to Mr. Trump because he is one of the richest businessmen in the world and even though a lot of people do not like him, he still manages to succeed with or without the support of others. I do not always agree with everything he has to say but I respect him because of his lack of political correctness. Some characteristics I love about Mr. Trump are his willing to learn from his mistakes, his “can do it” attitude he doesn’t take no lightly, and his ability to work under pressure. Questions I would love to ask Mr. Donald Trump is how much he makes a week? What are some investments does he have? What is his net worth in a year? What is the biggest threat in your company? And why are you running for president this year of all years? When it comes to Mr. Trump some people call him cut throat with the way he speaks to people, and though I might not agree on all of the comments...

...Adnan Jaafar Kate Goschen English 90 5 June 2015 How International Students Deal with Culture Shock The population of international students in foreign countries continues to surge in recent years with students coming from a range of nationalities. For instance, according to the Institute of International Education, “Over 723,270 international students intended [sic] U.S. Colleges, universities and institutes in the 2010 – 2011 school year” (Foreign Students). The number of foreign students in the United States has been increasing gradually over the past few years. “Numerous universities specifically take measures to attract international students for financial reasons as well as a measure to enrich the college environment and add diversity to the students’ population” (Hser 37). However, many international students have been facing many challenges and problems to adapt themselves to the new foods, activities, cultures, customs and languages in the foreign country. The process of adapting, understanding and recognizing these changes is called culture shock. The deep understanding of the meaning of culture shock, the stages of culture shock and the solutions to overcome culture shock can reduce the rate of culture shock problems. The phrase “culture shock” denotes the anxiety that can be experienced when people move from a familiar culture to a different culture. It can affect anyone who travels to a foreign country at any time, perhaps especially international students...

...Why were the activities of the Apprentice Boys a source of tension in Derry? 70% of the population of Derry is Catholic and 30% Protestant. Despite this, through a process of gerrymandering and discrimination, the city council has been dominated by unionist politicians since the foundation of Northern Ireland in 1920. The Apprentice Boys were a unionist body who engaged in triumphalist marches and for decades contributed to the domination of the city by unionists. In these circumstances it is hardly surprising that their activities caused tension in the city of Derry. The Apprentice Boys of Derry was formed to commemorate the victory of the Williamite forces at the siege of Derry in 1688. Thirteen apprentice boys had shut the city’s gates in the face of advancing Catholic troops under the command of King James. The Apprentice Boys of Derry have two main parades in Derry each year, one parade along the city'’ walls on 12 August and a commemorative closing of the gates in December. The Apprentice Boys parades were a reminder to Protestants of a Protestant victory over Catholic forces. At the same time the parades were also a reminder to Catholics of a defeat and of ongoing discrimination and gerrymandering in the city. The practice during parades of throwing coins from the city’s walls into the Catholic Bogside area added further to Catholic anger and opposition to the Apprentice Boys. Given the level of discrimination in Derry and the use of gerrymandering by Unionists...

OG[1]之中的13篇文章[2]；（其中3篇为第三版OG之中的文章） 2. 13次（套）TPO[3]之中的3*13=39篇文章[4]； 3. 早期[5]报名之时ETS赠送的3篇在线测试题 4. ETS官方给出的模考软件之中抽出的1篇文章； 于是这个文档在我的一时兴起之下，出现了： OG拿在手上，可以一个个字的敲成电子版；TPO的所有考试都是在自己的计算机进行，于是可以一边花钱参加考试,一边截图与录像---再利用截下来的图片，逐个的敲下来；早期的ETS赠送的3篇在线测试题，我也恰好有电子版本；官方的模考软件稍微用点功夫，就能将文章提取并复制出来。虽然工作有些繁杂，但总算完成了所有文章的敲打工作。再花了些时间，把这53篇文章都做了答案，附在文章的后面。（由于TPO之中有3篇文章与OG中完全重复,于是减去3篇,只剩下53篇。）同时我还更正了OG上几个明显的错误（详见文后附录）当然，我还做出了方便大家理解文章的参考译文，附在文章的后面。 在这53篇由ETS出的文章没有做完之前，我们实在不应该花时间在任何其他的题目之上。我有时候甚至会对着我的弟兄们高呼：“没有把这53篇做３遍，你好意思上考场么？你好意思花钱在任何一本垃圾书上面么？[6]” 另外，如果你正在准备iBT-SAT-GRE的作文部分或者写留学文书，也应该仔细的琢磨一下这些文章：经过ETS打磨的文章，无一不是精妙绝伦，极具模仿价值。常常有同学拜托我帮她（他）写PS，也说起自己的句子怎么看都像是小学生写的（尽管用上了GRE里面的单词），于是会随口问我“勇哥，您的写作能力是怎么训练出来的。”我说，“看呗，看呗：托福文章看多了，写作能力自然就提高了。” “这ETS的这些文章真的那么好？”。每当听到这个问题，我都会装做赵本山的样子来一句“谁用谁知道～～” 文勇 欢迎进行未删节的转载|且不必告诉我你转载到哪里去|都是一个战壕里面的弟兄啊… 告诉大家一个好消息，本文档中的TPO1-TPO9，以及在线测试题和官方模考题目的解析已经在市面上可以买到了！（好吧，我承认以下显然是广告部分）： 这本《托福真题详解-阅读分卷-第一册》是给弟兄们现在市面上可以获得的TPO1-TPO9阅读部分的文章解析，题目解析，中文翻译和每篇文章的必备词汇：文章解析是为了让大家养成从整体抓文章结构的感觉，题目解析是为了使大家能够在做完题之后知道正确选项为什么对，错误选项为什么错——并且因此来培养良好的做题思路，中文翻译是为了帮助大家扫除那些自以为理解对但实际理解有误的句子，在每篇文章后面配上必备词汇无非是为了节省大家的一些查单词而已。 另外，这本书还包含了一张CD（我想你可能第一次听说阅读书...

Lessons in what not to do can often be found in cities, where most officials, overwhelmed by a flood of problems, try to cope by naming and solving them one at a time. If they are faced with congestion, their answer is to widen streets and build bypasses and parking garages. Crime? Lock up the offenders. Smog? Regulate emissions. Illiteracy? Toughen standards. Litter? Raise fines. Homelessness? Build shelters, and if that seems to fail, jail the loiterers. Insufficient budget to fund all these competing priorities? Raise taxes or impose sacrificial austerity, to taste. Disaffected voters? Blame political enemies. Sometimes single-problem, single-solution approaches do work, but often, as previously described, optimizing one element in isolation pessimizes the entire system. Hidden connections that have not been recognized and turned to advantage will eventually tend to create disadvantage. Consider what happened in Borneo in the s. Many Dayak villagers had malaria, and the World Health Organization had a solution that was simple and direct. Spraying DDT seemed...

...Conceptual analysis and specification of Morgan’s metaphors using the CAST method Taken from: Gazendam, Henk W.M. (1993). Variety Controls Variety: On the Use of Organization Theories in Information Management. Groningen: Wolters-Noordhoff. 400 pp. ISBN 90-01-32950-0. 4.2. An overview of Morgan's metaphors Morgan (1986) distinguishes eight metaphors for organizations: machine, organism, brain, culture, political system, psychic prison, flux and transformation, and instrument of domination. Each metaphor highlights other aspects of organizational life (see Figure 4.1.). For further analysis, the metaphors can be grouped into three groups: the machine group, the organism group, and the mind group. The machine group only contains the machine metaphor (Paragraph 4.3.). The organism group focuses on the dynamic relationship of organization and environment and contains the organism metaphor and the flux and transformation metaphor (Paragraph 4.4.). The mind group (Paragraph 4.5.) contains two subgroups. The first mind subgroup concentrates on the relationship between the minds of persons and the organization as a social construct; it contains the brain metaphor, the culture metaphor, and the psychic prison metaphor. The second mind subgroup focuses on coordination mechanisms and power plays, and encompasses the political system metaphor and the instrument of domination metaphor. metaphor machine highlights efficiency, quality, and timeliness of production processes in a machine...
