...silence indicated to the patient that the nurse expects him to speak, to take the initiative, to communicate that which is most pressing. It gives the patient the opportunity to collect and organize his thoughts, to think through a point, or to consider introducing a topic of greater concern to him than the one being discussed. A positive and accepting silence can be a valuable therapeutic tool. (1) It encourages the patient to talk; (2) directs his thoughts to the task at hand--the consideration of his problem; (3) reduces the pace of the interview when either the nurse or the patient is pressing or pushing too hard; (4) gives the patient time to consider alternative courses of action, delve deeply into his feelings, or weigh a decision; (5) and allows the patient to discover that he can be accepted even though he is silent, that even though he is shy and quiet, he has worth and is respected by another person. Much nonverbal communication occurs during these interludes. The nurse needs to be alert to what she is communicating as well as perceiving. Even momentary loss of interest can be interpreted as indifference. Schwartz and Schockley state that the utilization of silence is often difficult for nursing personnel, since they think that nothing is happening and that they are wasting their time. In long periods of silence, they may become bored and their attention wanders from the patient. If the nurse could observe the patient and herself carefully...

...Picture this scenario: Twenty-four teenagers. Twelve boys, twelve girls. All sent into a giant arena for the fight of their lives. Only one can survive. What would you do? For Katniss and Peeta, it’s real. For them, these are the Hunger Games. Only three rules: Don’t step off your plate before the gong rings, don’t insult the Capitol, and don’t get killed. With twenty-three other teenagers out to kill you, you can’t afford to trust anyone. Or can you? That’s what sixteen-year-old Katniss Everdeen thinks when she volunteers for her twelve-year-old sister, Prim. Trust no one. Come back alive. Those are her only priorities. When Katniss enters the arena, her original plan is to run, run, run as fast as she possibly can away from the Cornucopia-- A giant, gleaming dome filled with weapons, food, water, and other supplies. She doesn’t want to enter the bloodbath-- The beginning of the Games so nicknamed because of brutal battles that take place over the supplies the Cornucopia holds. One item changes everything, though: A gleaming bow. Her ideal weapon. The bow... It could buy her food and defense. It could be the very key to her survival. And, after all, how hard can it be to get one bow? Apparently, very. After all is said and done, Katniss ends up in a tree for the night, exhausted and weaponless. She was only able to acquire a backpack containing a sleeping bag, a bit of food, and an empty water canteen. After hardships...

...My first never – gettable love It was 2002. And I had just shifted to a new school. It was hard getting through the entrance as it was an ARMY SCHOOL and it one of the many average students with high hopes and get nothing. It was the first time I knew what girls really are. But that wasn’t so. I was just an dumbass who knew how to take advantage of an extra bulky figure. It was a time when girls used to pull down their socks to flaunt their legs and guys were into all sorts of fights, love and all crap. It was a very hot sunny day in Jammu and I saw a girl with skirt ending above the knee and smooth legs. Ohh.. I love those a lot. I was into watching porn and had started imagining her having sex with me. I had just fallen in love …. That is what all my friends said when they saw a hot girl. Her name was Shikha, daughter of an army personnel. She was great to talk to. But I was into something dangerous. That was the first time I went to a café to search how to propose a girl. YouTube had all such things. I was so dumb that couldn’t even tell her how I felt. Days, Weeks, Months and Years passed by and then came the time I heard that she was leaving the school because her dad was transferred to some other place. I was in eighth and didn’t had guts to even say her BYE. Because I never had a conversation with a girl before. Forget conversation not even a HI. She left and then started my downfall...

...Behavioural/Competency-based Interviews Behavioural interviews are based on the idea that past behaviour is the best predictor of future behaviour. The interviewer will want specific examples of when and how you demonstrated particular behaviours. Prior to interview each position is assessed for the skills/competencies and characteristics that relate to job success. Interview questions are then developed to probe into these areas. All candidates are asked the same questions and notes are taken in order to evaluate candidates. The word competency is widely used in business and personnel psychology and refers to the behaviours that are necessary to achieve the objectives of an organisation. A competency is also something you can measure and lists of competencies form a common language for describing how people perform in different situations. Every job can be described in terms of key competencies. This means that they can be used for all forms of assessment, including appraisals, training needs analysis and of course, selection. • Individual competencies – your personal attributes: Flexibility, decisiveness, tenacity, independence, risk taking, personal integrity • Managerial competencies – taking charge of other people: Leadership, empowerment, strategic planning, corporate sensitivity, project management, management control • Analytical competencies – the elements of decision making: Innovation, analytical skills, numerical problem solving, problem solving, practical learning...

Name atleast 3. -One primary stakeholder would be Janice, the top executive -A second primary stakeholder would be John, the underpaid assistant and his family -A third primary stakeholder would be Janice’s boss -The company itself may also be affected by this situation 3. What are the possible alternatives for Janice? Provide atleast 2. -One alternative for Janice would be to talk to John about presenting the software package program to Janice s boss together so that John gets most of the credit and some recognition from Janice’s boss -A second alternative would be for Janice and John to get together and look at the software package and maybe have Janice put in her input as well, possibly making the package better, since she is highly educated and in a top position. No matter what, they should both present it together. If you are Janice what would you do? Would anyone be harmed? If so, how? Would you be comfortable with this decision? Will it work? Is it fair? If I were Janice I would first of all, definitely give John a raise. He apparently is a hard worker and dedicated to the...

...shouldn't pay for a liberal arts education. By Brian Dumaine, senior editor-at-large Fred Smith sees fast growth ahead in the developing world. Fred Smith sees fast growth ahead in the developing world. FORTUNE -- When Fred Smith founded FedEx in 1971, he had just returned from the Vietnam War, where he had served as a Marine platoon leader and then a pilot, and he was casting around for something to do. As legend has it, a paper he had written at Yale -- he doesn't remember the grade but is pretty sure it wasn't a good one -- laid out the idea for a hub-and-spoke system for delivering time-sensitive items like computer parts. He borrowed money from his sisters, leased some jets, and started his service. Today FedEx (No. 70 on the Fortune 500), with headquarters in Memphis, has 255,000 employees, 688 planes, and more than 90,000 vehicles that operate in some 220 countries and regions. Here's the world according to Fred Smith. Edited excerpts: Q: In 2000 you started morphing from your traditional air express delivery business into ground and into freight. What was the thinking behind that strategy shift? A: Well, in 2000 we were probably competing in a $50 billion annual [sales] market space. Today we're directly competing in about a $350 billion to $400 billion marketplace. Going into ground and freight opened up a market for us with the greatest growth potential over a sustained period of time: the developing world. Middle classes are emerging in various countries...

...“I WANT YOU FOR THE U.S. ARMY!” Now, what would you do if someone were to ask you this? Or if you seen it out in town on a poster? Would you pay any attention to it or just walk on by? Most people would honestly just walk on by, unless, there was something in that particular poster that had caught their attention. Recruiting ads have changed over the years, but this one was popular. This particular recruiting advertisement was an effective argument because of their slogan, Uncle Sam, his stare, his point, and the use of America’s colors; red, white, and blue. I would say this particular recruiting image was for men or boys. Back then it were only the men or boys who could actually join the army. So, this poster excluded any women and girls because they were not allowed to join. The main targeted audience for this was for the younger men and boys, and for more than one reason. The younger they are, the more apt they are to be healthier. The army wants them to be younger because they can move more quickly and act upon things faster than someone who is older. They also want the men who don’t already have a family started because then they won’t have that worry while out in battle and can focus better on what they need to do. Where is the place where you see most advertisements for things? Out in town, right? This image was more than likely posted out in town on public buildings as well, that is where most of a town’s population goes for many different reasons. Having it out where...

...likely being honest when he says he has no intention of doing anything beyond looking, the act of looking can still be a problem, especially if he is replaying it in his mind later. Not only that, but in his situation he is not even trying to be discreet about it when you’re around, and that is cause for concern. If he freely looks when you are with him, how bold is he when you are not present? 1) Whenever we go anywhere, could be a reception, stores, etc ( basicly anywhere there are other people) he looks/stare at girls/women.. I have been married for 8 years and been talking to him about this ever since. I have asked him several times not to do it, that it bothers me. He says he likes to look, that everyone is different. The next time I caught him staring, I told him you can stare all you want when I am not there, just don't do it infront of me, .. I sometime ignore him but not all the time... it really hurts me.. For eg. we were doing grocery shopping the other day when he saw this girl and he looked/stare at her, its like she had a magnet on her body.. He couldn't help looking.. He is looking at the girl then he saw me looking at him, he then turned away, then looked in the direction she went in... I just walked out the store. Please let me know how to handle this, he says all men look.. I said they look but you stare.. ahh! this is making upset 2) It`s really a shame that one of these women he is ogling doesn`t put him in his place. Wouldn`t that be great? I...

...1) What type of team do you, the new CIO, have? What do you see as the key problem with the team? For a medium-sized technology company I strongly believe the cross-functional team will make a huge different. The cross-functional team allows groups from various areas of the company to share a purpose or objective. The team leader, with input from the members, creates the goals and objectives of the team as the first step. On a cross-functional team, workers complete assignments together using their skills and talents to further the goals of the team. The key problem with this team is lack of cooperation and cohesiveness and the causes of problem with this team is avoidance in accountability, inattention in results, communication breakdown and goal differences. 2) What would you do to help turn this collection of individual regional and department heads into a top-performing team? There are five main developing stage to help this collection of individual regional and department heads into a top-performing team. The following five stages of team development are Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing, and Adjourning. The CIO needs to retain the motivation of team members in order to successfully overcome any challenges in forming stage. Following the storming stage the team moves to the norming phase, which is when they start establishing open communications, stable positions, norms and values. During this stage is when they start gaining and building trust, which makes...
