...management image to reflect the proper change management initiative. In this paper I will analyze a change management initiative I experienced where external pressures propelled the organization to change. I will argue that management unsuccessfully carried out the change initiative from an images perspective. Finally, I will make recommendations on what management could have done differently to make the change more successful. Before continuing further it is necessary to define the terminology used throughout out the rest of this paper. There are two types of images of managing, “management as control” and “management as shaping.” The former “is associated with a top-down, hierarchical view of managing. Typically, the organization is treated as if it is a machine” (Palmer, 2008). As opposed to the latter where the image is associated with a “participative style of managing in which people are encouraged to be involved in decisions and to help identify how things can be done better” (Palmer, 2008). Most importantly, there are also, “six images of managing change,” they are “six differing images of managing change, each of which is dependent on the images held of managing and whether intentional change outcomes can be achieved” (Palmer, 2008). They are images of manager as Director, Navigator, Caretaker, Coach, Interpreter, or Nurturer. I will briefly define Director, Interpreter, and Caretaker in more detail, because I touch upon these images in my analysis. “The director image is based...

Event photography proposes chances to photographers who relish sprouting images of populaces. The main marketplaces are weddings, anniversaries, graduations, celebrations and business proceedings such as symposiums or award ceremonies. The contacts for this kind of toil may be the specialties themselves or event organizers, such as conference coordinators, hotel managers or wedding planners. Sports photographers shoot live action at games and vend their images to newspaper and magazine publishers, or to the social establishment compering the games. Sports photographers may work on obligation from a sports editor on a separable publication, or they may find an event and proffer the images to an amount of publications. The main contacts are sports editors or art directors at newspapers and magazines, or marketing and municipal dealings managers of sports clubs.

...A picture with a purpose either good or bad can take on many different meanings. One single still image can have ability to change the opinion and beliefs of the masses, when reality is transformed into a tangible picture. It often takes on a new meaning for the person holding it, not just a random moment in time. It’s a still shot of an entire group of people who don’t know you personally, but yet hating you for the person you love. As seen in the picture from the Washington Post following the vote on same sex marriage in California.

...Sturken claims that “camera images ... are central to the interpretation of the past ... [and] are often perceived to embody memory” (11). Photographs are commonly thought of as confirmation that real people and objects existed, and that real events took place. However, photographs are incapable of being accurate reflections of the “real” world and always have meaning imposed on them by their creators, whether consciously or unconsciously asserted (Sontag). In addition to the reading of the photographer, it is crucial to examine how an image is interpreted by its consumers. Photo-viewing and -sharing has reached a crescendo in the twenty-first century, with increased public accessibility to images resulting in more public dialogues about their...

...collectively. They both worked on these painting equally. The efforts of both artists are in each painting which is rare to find but it makes these images unique. Even though they work collectively on each painting they took turns and work on it separately at different times. Working this way subtracts each other’s work so an idea that DiMambro had when painting may be different than Rushing’s when he came in to paint. The ideas each artist has for the painting may change but it came out good in the end as if just one artist painted the picture. In most of DiMambro’s and Rushing’s paintings the objects and characters are outlined which emphasize each part. It makes the characters bold so that they stick out. This collection of art is also very colorful and has a common, bold, color of red in most of the paintings with a shiny finish. Circus images always seem to be bright with an exciting atmosphere. The way the paint was brushed on was not perfectly smeared. You can notice the lines and brush strokes. It is not one solid coat like a painted wall. Most of the circus project paintings are close up, there is not much distance especially compared to Robert Morgan’s watercolor paintings. We as the viewer are able to see the character and objects close up. It is interesting to see these paintings have images of clowns. Clowns is not an image that you see very often, which makes the work that much more extraordinary. Clowns are the most iconic figures in the circus. They...

...Images Analysis Paper HR 587: Managing Organizational Change Introduction Winston Churchill, (British Orator, Author, and Prime Minister during World War II) stated, “There is nothing wrong with change, if it’s in the right direction.” I have unfortunately found that some of the “change” I have experienced within my current and previous employment, has often led the organization in a direction that was not beneficial to the organization and its’ employees. This concept, however, is what we experience as being a strategic change initiative. A change initiative is something that will occur within an organization when a particular situation and/or routine needs to be improved. It requires cross-functional support, and the results can negatively or positively affect the organization. The planning and results of change are often determined by the six key images concepts. These images include the director, navigator, caretaker, coach, interpreter, and nurturer, and the role of these images are crucial when implementing change. The director tends to be in control and is viewed as one who had the idea of acquiring a particular result. They are the visionaries and driving force behind the change that is needed to occur. The navigator is one who can steer a particular change in a direction when occurrences happen that are unforeseen, and produce a result. The caretaker image is one that will continue to lead and support their organization, despite the uncontrollable factors...

...The Model Image Body imaging is one of the most popular topics amongst the younger generations today. While issues of body images are more focused towards women, men also experience these issues. According to the National Association of Anorexia Nervosa and Associated Disorders about 24 million people in the United States suffer from so sort of eating disorder. About 10-15% of those 24 million people that suffer are men. This issue comes about because of the societal norm that everyone must look a certain way and if they do not look this way it is a problem. This picture is the perfect example of how this societal norm can affect anyone’s lifestyle. If not everyone, almost everyone wants to have that “model image”. They desire an image that is seen in magazines and on television in ads and commercials. I think it makes them feel normal or to up to the standard of society and like they are a part of a status quo. I can honestly say I’ve been through this before myself. I would look at the guys on TV and say I want my body to look like that. This made me start going to the gym more and working out with the heaviest weights I could, in order to get the model body I wanted. I even changed my eating habits and started a new diet to gain the weight I wanted to transform into muscle. This was something I felt could happen in a matter of weeks. When in reality it would take a few months for me to gain weight and build muscle that I wanted. I would have to arrange my schedule so that...

...Now a day is so simple to manipulate an image even from a cellphone. It’s possible to add lights, crop images and so on. Nevertheless, image manipulation and the creation of new Images, is becoming a problem for Photojournalism and Media. In some situations this software is misused, mainly when it comes to Photographs that involved controversial situations. In spite of the fact that Photoshop is questioning Photojournalism, there are some cases when this tool really helps to understand the context of the Image and it helps to complement it. Furthermore media is totally subjective. Photoshop is really helpful but it should be used carefully. Within, both of this texts “ Distorted Picture” by Sherry Ricchiardi and “ The Reality of a Fake Image”...

By applying the terms discussed in the essay to the photos chosen for this paper, a better understanding of the ethical implications, photographer’s role, scopophilia, and independence of the photos arise. First, Mitchell emphasizes the role of the photographer in the time of capturing the moment. “The beholder, in turn, is presented with an uncomfortable question: is the political, epistemological power of these images a justification for the violence that accompanies their production?” (Mitchell 328). This question applies directly to both of the photos: the young boy carrying his dog through the monsoon flood waters in the Philippines...

...Upheld By Character Character is built upon strength and compassion. To be quite honest, I happened upon this photo as I was rummaging through the mountains of pictures my mother has collected over the years. To my knowledge, I have never seen this before but I feel as though this photo gives an extremely detailed overview of my life. The fate of most photographs usually consists of being overlooked and cast into the attic, yet every picture is a reminder of an important memory. However, photos such as school pictures, which can be seen throughout my house, seem useless to me. Often times in these pictures emotion tries to be built or controlled. A moment deserves to be captured when the subjects in it find themselves unable to hold back a smile or a prideful smirk not when one is forged. What good is a memory if it lacks emotion, the backbone of a picture? It is obvious that in my picture we are not overtaken by joy, however, emotion engulfs this photo. Determination and faith can be found in this mirror of a memory. My father has his hands around mine, preventing me from falling into the abyss. Maybe to an average person it would be called a swimming pool, but convincing the 3 month old version of myself that that was true would be quite a feat. This second nature act of protection is not what drew me to this photo. It was no great accomplishment to stand on the first step of the pool, true. A father has an innate desire for the well-being of his child, also true. But the...

...This is about my still image analysis of my pictures I posted on Facebook. On Facebook I have posted some pictures that are semiotic. Semiotics is the study of signs. This may includes signs devised to convey meanings “....language, badges as well as 'symptoms' as in that’s the sign of swine flu'”. (Branston 12) Potency involves the strong or weak signs of semiotics that appear in the image. The sign in this image is that of me wear a suit with a sign of economic stature, which is the definition of symbolic sign. Most people where suit like the one I have in the picture and have some type of corporate job and make very good money. This makes the image a connotative image it represents an idea or mental image of a thing rather than the thing itself. The denotative meaning of the image is a guy in a nice suit poses to get his picture taken. The definition of denotative is the literal meaning of what you see in the picture. When I post this picture on Facebook the audience for whom the picture was for was my Facebook friends. My mom somehow saw it and she doesn’t have a Facebook account. Then I realize some of the people who are my Facebook friends are also her co workers and they commented on the picture. I don’t really care who sees the picture because it’s my own personal count with some friends and family members. What I hope people get out of this is that I look nice in a suit and tie. I look at it more like a professional selfie form a distance as it was shoot by a photographer...
