...Running Head: Assignment: Hinduism Paper Hinduism Paper Kalip Frazier II University of Phoenix/Axia HUM 130 Please repeat title and center it on first page of the body of the paper. Hinduism is a difficult religion for many to understand. The difficulty stems from the fact that many different variations of the religion has developed over time. There are many sects and a variety of other religious groups that have spawned from the bases of Hinduism. Hinduism is a religious belief that was formed and cultivated in South Asia more precisely, India. Hinduism is widely known as the world’s oldest religion. Although America is becoming more and more diverse, most Americans do not know a great deal about Hinduism. The caste system is one of the most connecting links of Hinduism; it combines religion with societal classifications. Understanding this system of hierarchy and what it represents to the people that believes it, is very critical to understand before digging into the religious beliefs of Hinduism. There are four fundamental castes or social classifications of Hinduism. Each individual caste has its own guidelines and mandates for being part of that particular caste. The elite social class is know the Brahman, or priest caste. This class is the equivalent to the King and Queen classification of the monarch system. The next tier in the caste system is the Kshatriyas classification, which includes warriors and rulers. The third tier of the caste system is the Vaisyas...

Bring a hard copy (printout) with you to class, since it will be the basis for an in-class discussion. Provide at least 50 word responses to each of the questions.

Look up the definition in our textbook and on line and then reflect on those definitions: The humanities to me is like studying in school, learning about how people throughout history have expressed, dealt with and understood the details surrounding human life and values or situations. Learning about cultural studies, different music, art performing from different cultural. Why do you think we study the humanities --- what’s in it for you? I think we study the humanities to get an insight on everything such as poetry, paintings, business models, and art education which can help us think creatively and critically. We also study the humanistic to understand our world and to bring clarity to the future. Think about the things you believe in, the core values you hold (e.g., Importance of the Individual, Freedom, Rule of Law, Belief in God, etc.).

...Motivation Concept Analysis Motivation in theory – Frederick Herzberg two factor theory Tomala Lewis PSY/320 6/5/2010 Angelica James Motivation Concept Analysis Motivation in theory – Frederick Herzberg two factor theory I agree with Mr. Frederick Herzberg’s two factor theory 100% and without any shadow of a doubt. There is no way any small business or large company can succeed, grow and continue prosperity in the future without the two factors Herzberg theorized. The first of two factors believed by Herzberg is Hygiene factors; Hygiene factors are based on the need for a business to avoid unpleasantness at work. If these factors are considered inadequate by employees, then they can cause dissatisfaction with work. Hygiene factors include company policy and administration, wages, salaries, and other financial remuneration, quality of supervision, quality of inter-personal relations, working conditions, and feelings of job security. The second factor believed by Herzberg is Motivator factors. Motivator factors are based on an individual's need for personal growth. When they exist, motivator factors actively create job satisfaction. If they are effective, then they can motivate an individual to achieve above-average performance and effort. Motivator factors are status, opportunity for advancement, gaining recognition, responsibility, challenging and or stimulating work, and a sense of personal achievement & personal growth in a job. The need for a business to run efficiently...

After a brief review of the history of cross-cultural OB, we review research on work motivation, or the factors that energize, direct, and sustain effort across cultures. We next consider the relationship between the individual and the organization, and review research on culture and organizational commitment, psychological contracts, justice, citizenship behavior, and person-environment fit. Thereafter, we consider how individuals manage their interdependence in organizations, and review research on culture and negotiation and disputing, teams, and leadership, followed by research on managing across borders and expatriation. The review shows that developmentally, cross-cultural research in OB is coming of age. Yet we also highlight critical challenges...

...Hum/111 Mid Term Axia College Material Appendix A Midterm Exam * Access the Week Four Electronic Reserve Readings located under the materials section of your student website. * Read this week’s Electronic Reserve Readings. * Write a paragraph of approximately 100 words for each section listed below. 1. Using the critical thinking skills you have gained so far and referring to the materials provided for this assignment, identify two possible strategies that Thomas Hutchinson or Samuel Adams likely used to develop and improve their thinking as those historical events unfolded prior to taking a stand and acting according to their beliefs. A strategy that they used would be a maintained critical attitude throughout the problem solving. When using a critical attitude and maintaining it can help improve your thinking skills. This is crucial because improving your thinking depends on the habits and attitudes of others. When problem solving this involves careful observation, interpreting, evaluating, and more, which can be difficult if distracted by emotions. The second one I think they may have used would have been Summarizing. Summarizing can help a person visualize all key elements. Samuel Adams may have used an analytical process. He assessed both sides of the issue and all consequences of their actions before he planned what he would do. 2. Explain the importance of building a foundation for critical and creative thinking when evaluating historical...
