...Synergistic Decision Making Tariq Shah OM-176 Group and Organizational Dynamics PSY 452 Module Two Organizational Management Professor Fabian April 15, 2015 Synergistic Decision Making Working with people is not easy at times. Many people rather work independently of others. I believe most of the reason for the individual deciding to work independent of others, is because they do not want to rely on others for their success or failure. If they can do it alone, they feel more in control of the process and thus, do not have to deal with many of the variables that come with working in groups of people. In my journey I have certainly not mastered working with people; however, I do find that working in groups provides the best overall solution to any organization’s effectiveness. The synergistic decision making process, where rational and interpersonal aspects are used, provides an organization or group with the best possible outcomes. Last week during class, our professor divided us into small groups between three to four people. My group had four people in total. Our task was to use the Desert Survival simulation and decide whether we would as a team stay or leave the crash site. After we had determined that, we then were asked to decide as a group, what order to label the fifteen items which were salvaged from the crash site. The Desert Survival simulation was certainly more than just any exercise. It is a tool that forces each person in the group to interact one with...

...I agree that there was widespread support for the war towards the start but as it went on and some issues raised themselves through the media that turned some against the war. All 3 sources agree that majority of the British public did support the Boer war but do suggest that there was some opposition. Source 4 is from a local newspaper; the newspapers at this time were seeing a change in reporting from broadsheet to tabloid and more human stories rather than old style reporting. It was part of a new generation of newspapers called ‘the yellow press’. This was shown in the Daily Mail which led the way in England reaching 1 million subscriptions. It was heavily pro empire and pro war which mirrored the view of most papers at the time and had an influence on the publics’ opinion. At the time the papers were writing what the people wanted the read so they could keep subscriptions. Therefore the paper could be accused of trying to please its readers rather than accurate reporting. Source 4 agrees with source 5 that there were wild scenes of patriotism. ‘patriotic songs’ songs showed that the public were proud of their country. Source 5 describes ‘chanting a singing’ at an anti war protest in Birmingham, the same place as the newspaper was published. Singing songs was common at the time and many songs were written in support of the war. The public would also go the music halls to listen and sing which would be patriotic and showed the public’s support of the war. Source 6 tells...

...Fabian Muniz Mrs.Cox English 4 14 May 2018 Communism: A True Utopian Society Communism has been commonly used in major powers around the world. It has been used to manipulate its citizens then force them to do whatever the leaders of the country want them to do. Communism at first keeps promises of equality but, once a selfish leader comes to power communism goes south very quickly. Three important things about communism are the history of communism, the early leaders of communism, and communism in Russia. Every country is unique. The driving force of every country is its government. Russia's government was a communist witch, in turn made Russia a superpower. “Communism is a political and economic doctrine, the aim of witch is to abolish private...

...The Comedy in Twelfth Night is largely generated by Shakespeare's use of disguise and mistaken identity. How far do you agree? Shakespeare's Twelfth Night is one of the best known comedies and is often well cited for its use of disguise and mistaken identity as being the key factors in the play that cause humour and make the play into the comedy that it is. However there are many other factors and comedic effects that take place within the play and cause humour that do not directly tie to disguise and mistaken identity. These include the use of standard comedic plot lines, the use of visual humour, bare basic comedy and jokes alongside the use of comic servants. All of these play a part in the comedy and humour of Twelfth Night but how prominent they are is the factor I shall be examining. The use of Viola (when disguised as Cesario) is a key point of humour throughout the play and is a constant reminder of the humour based off visual comedy and mistaken identity that Shakespeare intended to portray. A lot of the central plot within the play revolves around Viola and Cesario and the many events within the play that directly stem from these characters. In Act 1 Scene 4 we get our first glimpse of disguise within the play when we are introduced to Cesario. Here we learn that within a short space of time Viola has managed to become a favourite of Orsino and as Valentine notes “if the Duke continue these favours towards you, Cesario, you are likely to be much advanced”. This in...

Distinguish between personal, intellectual, and real property. 2. Explain how personal property is acquired. 3. Discuss the definition and significance of bailments. 4. Define different types of tenancies in real property. 5. Discuss the concept of eminent domain. Ryan McVay/Photodisc/Thinkstock The concept of property and ownership is one that has long been important in both society in general and law in particular. English philosopher and political theorist John Locke saw it as "the reason why men enter into society," and Walter Lippmann, the American journalist, described it as "the only dependable foundation of personal liberty." Some have gone so far as to say that the main reason for law is to protect property rights. Even if one does not subscribe to such a narrow purpose, there is no doubt that the law is much concerned with property and rights of ownership. Property can be defined as the right of an individual to exclusively possess, use, and dispose of anything that is capable of being owned. Broadly speaking, property can be divided into three separate types: personal property, intellectual property, and real property. Personal property is characterized by its portable nature; it can be carried from place to place. Furthermore, personal property can be either tangible or intangible. Tangible personal property encompasses...

...ENTREPRENEURSHIP AND SMALL BUSINESS A CASE OF A DEVELOPING COUNTRY Abstract This study revolve around the socio-economic structure of entrepreneurship, factors affecting the growth and development of enterprises and problems faced by them. For the purpose of data collection a sample of fifty small scale units was taken and a common schedule of structure questionnaire containing questions of various aspect of entrepreneurship was administered personally to the owner/managing director of each of the units as the case may be. This study is partially exploratory but basically descriptive in nature. From the interpretation and analysis of data collected the result shows that age is not a static phenomenon for entrepreneurship. Those who have less education but have more practical experience and training, enter into the industry early. However, in such cases less education restricts the growth and development of the enterprise. The paper also finds reasons for enterpreneurship, the three was to earn high profits and prosperity. The variables which decide the area of activity or the product line are based on assured market, parental business, experience and revival of the sick unit etc. There are certain irritants that also serve as impediments for the growth of enterprises. For instance competition from small scale units, (28%) financial constraints, high intent ratio and others.

As Human our color vision influences everything from our art and poetry to the colors we paint our homes and the clothing we choose to buy. Colors distinguish a thing from the other. Colors determine our emotions. Pablo Picasso once quoted, “Colors like features follow the changes of the emotions”. Do you feel happy in a yellow room? Does the color blue make you feel calm and relaxed? Artist and interior designers have already proven how color can dramatically affect moods, feelings and emotions. Color is a powerful tool when it comes to communication and can be used to signal action, influence mood and cause physiological reactions. How color affects the effectiveness of the business? Marketing is a science of satisfying human wants and needs. When this filed acquires the principles of color psychology, it would...

...introduction you wrote in 1970 to Daniel Guerin's Anarchism, but more recently, for instance in the film Manufacturing Consent, you took the opportunity to highlight again the potential of anarchism and the anarchist idea. What is it that attracts you to anarchism? CHOMSKY: I was attracted to anarchism as a young teenager, as soon as I began to think about the world beyond a pretty narrow range, and haven't seen much reason to revise those early attitudes since. I think it only makes sense to seek out and identify structures of authority, hierarchy, and domination in every aspect of life, and to challenge them; unless a justification for them can be given, they are illegitimate, and should be dismantled, to increase the scope of human freedom. That includes political power, ownership and management, relations among men and women, parents and children, our control over the fate of future generations (the basic moral imperative behind the environmental movement, in my view), and much else. Naturally this means a challenge to the huge institutions of coercion and control: the state, the unaccountable private tyrannies that control most of the domestic and international economy, and so on. But not only these. That is what I have always understood to be the essence of anarchism: the conviction that the burden of proof has to be placed on authority, and that it should be dismantled if that burden cannot be met. Sometimes the burden can be met. If I'm...

...to the study of Entrepreneurship. Introduction Businesses are any undertaking created for the purpose of creating utility. Utility is simply the satisfaction derived from consuming certain goods and services. Businesses are created by a special kind of labour which is also referred to as the entrepreneur. Entrepreneur is regarded as a special kind of labour because not all labour possesses entrepreneurial abilities which enable them to start a business from the scratch. Thus, entrepreneurship is simply the establishment of a new business or business enterprise or venture. This Unit looks at the development of the concept of entrepreneurship and the various ways in which this concept can be defined. Quick Review questions I. Businesses are not any undertaking created for the purpose of creating utility. True or False II. 1.3. Entrepreneur is regarded as a special kind of labour True or False Entrepreneurship – Origin Various scholars have written extensively on the origin of entrepreneurship. What is interesting is that most of the scholars who wrote about the origin of entrepreneurship are either economists or historians. Basically, the concept...

...context’ may be worth keeping in mind as you read. This is an interpretation seen through my eyes, not yours. My comments are not unbiased, as it is as equally unlikely that yours may be. So my ‘advice’ is consider what is said here and in the book considering the need to understand the ‘mechanics’ that help make sense of the more involved themes that develop in the book as you progress through Law in Context. The observations, important in their own right, may be particularly useful for seeing how their often ubiquitous expression is taken as ‘normal’ in the areas of wider society, such as in discussions of economics and power. It is unlikely that you will find any ‘right answers’ from this summary, but I do hope it helps you in synthesising opinions. A bibliography of books I used is given at the end of this summary. If your head isn’t spinning too much, maybe it is worth getting together earlier in the semester with friends and talking about some of the issues that particularly interest you. Don’t be worried if ‘you don’t know anything’. It’s probable that you, as for most of us, are neither as enlightened nor as...
