...When thinking about the topics for this assignment the first thing I had to do was analyze the relationship between the entrepreneurs from today and the entrepreneurs from yesteryears. The entrepreneurs from today can learn how to profit and be social responsibility by studying the leading entrepreneurs of the past. Throughout this paper I will analyze leadership styles and major principles for a profit-oriented entrepreneurial approach in which the primary goal to provide a product or service to consumers and to make a profit. Also their major business principles for a social-responsibility oriented entrepreneurial approach in which the primary is goal to make a positive impact on society (people, families, ecology, or similar) while providing a product or service to consumers and to make a profit. This paper will also show what three resources or tools available through the Small Business Administration and SCORE would be the most useful. When thinking of leadership style I would say Blake Mycoskie who is the founder of Toms has an authoritarian or autocratic leadership style. This style is used when leaders tell their employees what they want done and how they want it accomplished, without getting the advice of their followers. Some of the appropriate conditions to use it are when you have all the information to solve the problem, you are short on time, and your employees are well motivated. They have clear expectations for their team's performance, and they communicate...

...your philosophy, be sure to include the new definition of entrepreneurial leadership presented in Understanding Entrepreneurial Leadership in today’s Dynamic Markets. According to Tarabishy, an entrepreneurial approach should be to enhance the firm’s performance, it capacity for adaptation, and its chances for long term survival. He states that a “new type of leader” is needed and must be able to operate in a highly predictable world where competition is fast moving (Tarabishy, 2002). All of the literature that we were provided to read for the class had commonalities. They all seemed to summarize that a successful leader motivates and encourages. Leaders genuinely care about those that work for them and want to see them succeed. They push their subordinates to higher limits and encourage tactical risks. The three seem to agree that be successful one has to have passion and drive to motivate. The theory that I would state combines and sums all three elements would be titled “entrepreneurial positive energy”. This would be the ability for leaders to be able to lead with enthusiasm and ethical character. Describe what type of organization a transactional, transformational, and authentic leader would thrive in the most, as well as which type of leader would thrive least. Explain your response using at least on additional source. According to definition Max Weber and Bernard Bass transactional leadership is when leaders motivate through rewards and punishment (2004, MoneyZine)...

...situations? How could you improve your leadership and management skills now that you have a better understanding of the types of power and how they are applied? Remember to always add the "whys" with the "whats." I believe that most of these different types of power can be effective given the situation in which they are used. If I were to choose which of these I would find the most effective in a general setting I would choose charisma power. The reason I would choose charisma power is because of the effect it has on large groups of people. A good example of this would be Obama’s speeches and how his charisma got nearly the entire nation behind him during his first run for presidency. Thinking about the different types of power, I would probably say that I have a rational type of power. I use rational power during normal social settings on a regular basis. Normally when I am at work I use my reasoning and problem-solving skills to influence the situation. Let’s say that me and some of my co-workers have been given an assignment and told we need to have it done by a specific time. One of the co-workers are convinced that we should do it a specific way, but I noticed a problem with the way in which they want to do the assignment. I will approach my co-worker and in the most respective way that I can I will explain to them the flaw that I see in their solution and in return offer an anterior solution that will allow us to get the assignment done by the deadline.

Normandale, a retailer, sells high-end products in malls throughout the country. With Mathis’s high costs, Normandale is unable to make a profit from the sale of Mathis’s products. Countess Lori-Ann (CLA) is a Mathis competitor. Normandale sends photographs and samples of the Mathis line to CLA and instructs them to make an identical line at a lower price. Mathis labels are easily discernable in the photographs and the samples have the Mathis label attached. CLA copies the Mathis line for Normandale. CLA sells the clothing to Normandale at a low price allowing Normandale to sell the products for a total gross profit of nearly $3 million, an increase of nearly 50% over its sale of Mathis products. Mathis discovers that Normandale is selling counterfeit products, and sends several cease-and-desist letters to them—to no avail. Mathis then sues Normandale alleging Normandale has engaged in illegal conduct. Normandale counters that it did nothing wrong.

...Diagnostic Algebra Assessment Definitions Categories Equality Symbol Misconception Graphing Misconception Definition Concept of a Variable Misconception Equality Symbol Misconception As algebra teachers, we all know how frustrating it can be to teach a particular concept and to have a percentage of our students not get it. We try different approaches and activities but to no avail. These students just do not seem to grasp the concept. Often, we blame the students for not trying hard enough. Worse yet, others blame us for not teaching students well enough. Students often learn the equality symbol misconception when they begin learning mathematics. Rather than understanding that the equal sign indicates equivalence between the expressions on the left side and the right side of an equation, students interpret the equal sign as meaning “do something” or the sign before the answer. This problem is exacerbated by many adults solving problems in the following way: 5 × 4 + 3 = ? 5 × 4 = 20 + 3 = 23 Students may also have difficulty understanding statements like 7 = 3 + 4 or 5 = 5, since these do not involve a problem on the left and an answer on the right. Falkner presented the following problem to 6th grade classes: 8 + 4 = [] + 5 All 145 students gave the answer of 12 or 17. It can be assumed that students got 12 since 8 + 4 = 12. The 17 may be from those who continued the problem: 12 + 5 = 17. Students with this misconception may also have difficulty with the idea that adding...

...Team B Calorie Count Tool PRG/211 May 5, 2014 Team B Calorie Count Tool PROBLEM STATEMENT Team B was asked to develop a program which would calculate the user’s daily intake of calories and measure those calories against the overall calories expended. The core purpose of this program will do two primary functions. First, it will record the user intake of calories as acquired through meals throughout the day. Second, the user will record caloric output associated with physical activity. This information will be calculated together to determine the caloric surplus or deficit for the user. In order for the program to execute accurately, and provide customized results, the user will be required to input personal data to include gender, age, weight, and height. This additional information is essential to determine the user’s default caloric burn rate, otherwise known as the basal metabolic rate (BMR). The BMR and the calories burned as a result of physical activity will be calculated against the intake of calories to determine the overall success for the user. As the program is executed it must: * Record user name, age, height, weight to enable more accurate calculations * Record the users specific caloric values entered for each meal * Record the user activity and caloric burn values for that activity * Calculate the basal metabolic rate (BMR) for the individual * Subtotal the total caloric values for the day * Combine the physical activity and...

The operand (the value on which the operator operates ) of the unary operator must have arithmetic or pointer type and the result is the value of the argument. Example:- If a=5 then +a means 5 If a=0 then +a means 0. If a=-4 then +a means -4. Ternary operator:- It precedes an operand. The operand of the unary operator must have arithmetic type and the result is the negation of the operand’s value. Example:- If a=5 then –a means -5 If a=0 then –a means 0 If a=-4 then –a means 4. (b) Assignment and equalto operator Assignment operator:- Equal to operator: An assignment operator assigns value In this we put the To a variable. value as it is.

...Selection statements Selection is used to select which statements are to be performed next based on a condition being true or false. Relational expressions In the solution of many problems, different actions must be taken depending on the value of the data. The if statement in C I used to implement such s decision structure in its simplest form – that of selecting a statement to be executed only if a condition is satisfied. Syntax: if(condtion) statement executed if condition is true When an executing program encounters the if statement, the condition is evaluated to determine its numerical value, which is then interpreted as either true or false. If the condition evaluates to any non-0 value (positive or negative), the condition is considered as a “true” condition and the statement following the if is executed; otherwise this statement is not executed. Relational Operators In C Relational operator | Meaning | Example | < | Less than | age < 30 | > | Greater than | height > 6.2 | <= | Less than or equal to | taxable <= 200000 | >= | Greater than or equal to | temp >= 98.6 | == | Equal to | grade == 100 | != | Not equal to | number !=250 | In creating relational expressions, the relational operators must be typed exactly as given in the above table. Thus, although the following relational expressions are all valid: age > 40 length <= 50 temp >= 98.6 3 < 4 flag == done day != 5 The following are invalid: length =< 50 ...

...Leadership Style Bret Jacobsen Western Governors University Leadership Style A1. & A2. Style and Philosophy Impact/Evaluation: The practicum site administrator most often utilizes a transformational leadership approach, where she likes to be out among the stakeholders, including parents, teachers and scholar’s, providing a hands on methodology to leadership while being involved with those she works with. The site administrator sets the example, by modeling what she expects others to do. Additionally, the administrator likes to put coworkers into a position where they feel confident and comfortable solving their own problems and solutions without being micromanaged, which creates ownership. Her door is always open and she is willing to help if needed, but prefers to let stakeholders be professional and do what needs to be done. According to Smith (2017), a transformational leader creates an empowering culture that includes, values, shared vision, intrinsic needs and covenants. The principal rarely becomes authoritative in her leadership approach, but has had to use it on occasion when direction was necessary. In my opinion, you seem to get a much better outcome when stakeholders are given time to reflect and come up with their own solutions or ways to accomplish a certain task, which empowers the individual, and brings about...
