This essay will also explain the author’s view on Fayol’s, Mintzberg’s and Taylor’s theories. Classical management theory is a school of management thought in which theorists delved into how to find the best possible way for workers to perform their tasks. The purpose of the first article is to prove that Fayol’s function of theories is still relevant today but Mintzberg’s theory is better because there are more details for the managers in how to do the managers tasks. The purpose of the second article is to argued that management fashions are a consequence of Henri Fayol’s idea of general management and the general acceptance of this theory. It is suggested that different ideas of management proposed by Frederick Taylor, also work. In the second article the author also trying to prove that Fayol’s theory and Taylor’s theory are useful and can be used together. The key points of the first article are; that several studies that the author observed show that manager use PLOC in their real-life work. PLOC stands for Planning, Organising, Leading, and Controlling. Organisations are also successful when the managers are applying the PLOC in their work.

Critics of zero tolerance claim it is ineffective and leads to random punishments such as 10 year olds suspended for 365 days because her mother packed a knife in her lunch to use to cut up her apple. When she opened her lunchbox she immediately turned it in to her teacher but was still suspended‘(American Psychological Association Zero Tolerance Task Force). What would the early theorist of management thought think of this? The man that first defined management, indeed that there was a special skill we could call management, was a French mining company executive from the 1800’s named Henri Fayol. Fayol’s work was not translated until mid-twentieth century but he is given credit for both defining management and proposing 14 Administrative Principles which should be considered by organizational managers. We...

...focus on how Hanif Kureishi uses humor and different points of view to portray his image of the human relationship to and appreciation of objects and likewise. Hanif Kureishi makes use of two of the three theories that has been set around humor. Hanif Kureishi uses ‘the relief theory’ and ‘the incongruity theory’. The relief theory is based around the fact that the reader is going to have a set of taboos or subjects that they do not like to talk about or discuss. Some of these taboos are often things as pornography, genitalia and sex in general, all of which we see in the story. Talking about or being confronted with these taboos will often cause an individual to feel ashamed or nervous. So by confronting the reader with his or her taboos Hanif Kureishi is forcing the reader to deal with his or her shame and/or nervousness and the most common way of doing so is by laughing. Hanif Kureishi implements this in the text by creating a main character, in this case Doug, whom is an “actor” in the industry of pornography, and by writing very obviously about Doug’s work experiences, doings and deeds. And of course there is the huge walking and talking penis… Should it be the case that pornography, genitalia nor sex is not included in the readers list of taboos Hanif Kureishi also makes use of the incongruity theory. The incongruity theory is base aroung the fact that the reader has an assumption about how the world is and works, about what is right and what is wrong and about what...

...dependent on attaining pre-designed objectives and to make its services as productive and efficient as possible. However, organizations do not achieve their objectives automatically. In addition to the human resources, physical resources and special know-how in a business organization, there is still one element that is necessary to direct all these resources and activities effectively towards the goals of the enterprise. That indispensable element is management and without it, no purposeful action is possible. The question that is raised within this context of traditional and contemporary views of leadership is how does this aspect coincide and interact with the practical ideals of management. This leads to the debate about management and leadership. Does modern management praxis implicitly include the understanding of leadership, or are leadership and management two very different things. This debate will form the central focus of this paper. 2. Different approaches to the terms leadership and management The approach that will be taken with regard...

...teams of just two or three people, the eight different roles must be filled. Most people play more than one role on the teams in which they participate. To complete each section of this inventory, tick in the far left hand column the one, two or three sentences most applicable to yourself. Then in the column on the right, apportion 10 points between those sentences that apply to you: one of which you feel sums you up well while the other applies some of the time. In this instance you could give your first choice seven points, and the remaining points to you second choice. In some instances you might decide that there are two sentences which apply to you equally – if this is the case, award five points each. You must allocate all 10 points in each section.

...focal point of his book, the argument and defense of the fact that Jesus Christ is the only Savior. Along with this Nash shines a light on the three views that are central to the debate. They are Christian exclusivism, pluralism, and inclusivism. This paper will focus on the difference between Christian exlusivism and pluralism. The bulk of the first chapter is spent focusing on Christian exclusivism. By way of evidences found in scripture and the stance of biblical authority Nash establishes its definition. He places such a strong emphasis on this view that the reader is put in a place of analyzing the other views against the view of Christian exclusivism, and does so in a way that it is understood the other views will more than likely come up short with regard to proving their case. Nash makes this clear with the statement, ““The major question I will seek to answer in the rest of this book is whether pluralists or inclusivists have produced arguments strong enough to justify the repudiation of exclusivism, which is the position of historic Christianity.” It is important to note that a key element when it comes to what is known as Christian exlusivism is its view of Theology. The book states, theology “has been replaced by personal encounter, religious feeling, trust, or obedience.” These thoughts are evident throughout Nash’s expressed views on pluralism through the first six chapters of his book. He doesn’t hide this as he prepares the reader for his views with regard...

...The Paradox of Death Death comes to us all one way or another, there is no escaping death. Our natural life’s cycle must take its course. The core focal point of this exposition is to compare and contrast the symbol of death and impermanence in the poems Because I Could Not Stop for Death by Emily Dickinson and Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night by Dylan Thomas. Each poem offers a different perspective towards accepting death. In one literary work we have someone who welcomed death submissively, in contrast to another literary work where the author is willing someone dear to him to fight against death. Together the two literary works incorporated the same theme with dissimilar points of view, ranging from the way they utilize their respective literary devices such as personification, point of view, symbolism, figure of speech, tone, mood and imagery. The unconformity of the poems “Do Not Go Gentle into that Good Night” and “Because I Could Not Stop for Death” overshadows the parallel theme of death connecting them. The first poem I’ll discuss will be the poem “Because I Could Not Stop for Death” by Emily Dickinson, which is written in the using a meter form. In agreement with Karen Silvestri, “meter in poetry is what brings the poem to life and is the internal beat or rhythm with which it is read (Silvestri, 2014)”. “Poetry is meant to be recited and the number of beats per line of spoken poetry determines the name of the rhythm, though not often seen, rhythms are named...
