The Success Of A Successful Company - 1646 Words

Having a successful company or running a well organized and cohesive working environment is becoming the main target for business owners and entrepreneurs today. So much so, that many organizations and firms are taking a closer look into key factors that has lead to their competitors success as well as their failures. What they are finding in their observations is that leadership or the lack thereof of leadership, is the most common factors of these companies outcomes, to which they have concluded as being the most important aspect in either the rise or fall of these companies. As a result, many companies are taking necessary strides into their own reorganization of leadership, therefore they do not become a mirrored image of the failing†¦show more content†¦They lack the ability to implement problem solving techniques when attempting to solve the smallest issue that typically arise in a normal business environment. After conducting my own research of leadership and its infl uence, I realized that although leadership is an important entity in organizations, the leadership style as well as the personality of the leader is what determines the ending result and the success of any corporations today. In research paper and articles â€Å"Relationship Between Leaders Personality Types and Source of Power and leadership Styles Among Managers† and â€Å" Men, Women Leadership†, several leadership styles and viewpoints are suggested as being most beneficial when determining the most successful leadership route in today s competitive business. Research paper â€Å"Relationship Between Leaders Personality Types and Source of Power and leadership Styles Among Managers† two leadership styles are analyzed, which are transformational leadership and transactional leadership. The authors define transformational leadership as a leadership style that transform people and organizations values, goals, standards, needs and ethics which are influenced on both a micro and macro level through communication encouragement and innovation of their followers through high visibility. They define transactional leadership as being a more conventional style which motivated their followe rs with exchange of

The Best Speeches from Shakespeares Henry V

As it has been argued that, among the best Shakespeare plays, the Henriad (a four-play cycle containing Richard II, Henry IV Parts One and Two, and Henry V) is the crowning achievement of the Immortal Bards incredible career. There are many reasons why fans laud  the Henry plays above the others, including the remarkable character arc; the astute blend of humor, history, and family drama; and the awesome array of battle scenes. For fans of Henry V, another reason to admire this work is that it contains some of the most powerful monologues in the English language. Listed below are three of the best speeches delivered by King Henry: Once More Unto the Breach In this scene, Henry V and his small band of English soldiers have been battling the French. Theyve gotten roughed up pretty good, and some of them are ready to give up, but when Henry delivers this motivational speech, they take charge once more and win the day. Note that, contrary to a common misconception, the first line of this speech is not Once more into the breach. Once more unto the breach, dear friends, once more;Or close the wall up with our English dead.In peace theres nothing so becomes a manAs modest stillness and humility:But when the blast of war blows in our ears,Then imitate the action of the tiger;Stiffen the sinews, summon up the blood,Disguise fair nature with hard-favourd rage;Then lend the eye a terrible aspect;Let pry through the portage of the headLike the brass cannon; let the brow oerwhelm itAs fearfully as doth a galled rockOerhang and jutty his confounded base,Swilld with the wild and wasteful ocean.Now set the teeth and stretch the nostril wide,Hold hard the breath and bend up every spiritTo his full height. On, on, you noblest English.Whose blood is fet from fathers of war-proof!Fathers that, like so many Alexanders,Have in these parts from morn till even foughtAnd sheathed their swords for lack of argument:Dishonour not your mothers; now attestThat those whom you calld fathers did beget you.Be copy now to men of grosser blood,And teach them how to war. And you, good yeoman,Whose limbs were made in England, show us hereThe mettle of your pasture; let us swearThat you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not;For there is none of you so mean and base,That hath not noble lustre in your eyes.I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips,Straining upon the start. The games afoot:Follow your spirit, and upon this chargeCry God for Harry, England, and Saint George! Upon the King The night before the most monumental battle in the play, Henry looks upon his sleeping soldiers and contrasts a kings life of pomp and ceremony with the emotional life of a commoner. Upon the king! let us our lives, our souls,Our debts, our careful wives,Our children and our sins lay on the king!We must bear all. O hard condition,Twin-born with greatness, subject to the breathOf every fool, whose sense no more can feelBut his own wringing! What infinite hearts-easeMust kings neglect, that private men enjoy!And what have kings, that privates have not too,Save ceremony, save general ceremony?And what art thou, thou idle ceremony?What kind of god art thou, that sufferst moreOf mortal griefs than do thy worshippers?What are thy rents? what are thy comings in?O ceremony, show me but thy worth!What is thy soul of adoration?Art thou aught else but place, degree and form,Creating awe and fear in other men?Wherein thou art less happy being feardThan they in fearing.What drinkst thou oft, instead of homage sweet,But poisond flattery? O, be sick, great greatness,And bid thy ceremony give thee cure!Thinkst thou the fiery fever will go outWith titles blown from adulation?Will it give place to flexure and low bending?Canst thou, when thou commandst the beggars knee,Command the health of it? No, thou proud dream,That playst so subtly with a kings repose;I am a king that find thee, and I knowTis not the balm, the sceptre and the ball,The sword, the mace, the crown imperial,The intertissued robe of gold and pearl,The farced title running fore the king,The throne he sits on, nor the tide of pompThat beats upon the high shore of this world,No, not all these, thrice-gorgeous ceremony,Not all these, laid in bed majestical,Can sleep so soundly as the wretched slave,Who with a body filld and vacant mindGets him to rest, crammd with distressful bread;Never sees horrid night, the child of hell,But, like a lackey, from the rise to setSweats in the eye of Phoebus and all nightSleeps in Elysium; next day after dawn,Doth rise and help Hyperion to his horse,And follows so the ever-running year,With profitable labour, to his grave:And, but for ceremony, such a wretch,Win ding up days with toil and nights with sleep,Had the fore-hand and vantage of a king.The slave, a member of the countrys peace,Enjoys it; but in gross brain little wotsWhat watch the king keeps to maintain the peace,Whose hours the peasant best advantages. St. Crispins Day Speech This is the most famous monologue from Henry V, and with good reason. These inspiring lines are delivered to the rabble of brave English soldiers who are about to go into battle (the famous Battle of Agincourt) against thousands of French knights. Outnumbered, the soldiers wish they had more men to fight, but Henry V interrupts them, declaring that they have just enough men to make history. Whats he that wishes so?My cousin Westmoreland? No, my fair cousin;If we are markd to die, we are enowTo do our country loss; and if to live,The fewer men, the greater share of honor.Gods will! I pray thee, wish not one man more.By Jove, I am not covetous for gold,Nor care I who doth feed upon my cost;It yearns me not if men my garments wear;Such outward things dwell not in my desires.But if it be a sin to covet honor,I am the most offending soul alive.No, faith, my coz, wish not a man from England.Gods peace! I would not lose so great an honorAs one man more methinks would share from meFor the best hope I have. O, do not wish one more!Rather proclaim it, Westmoreland, through my host,That he which hath no stomach to this fight,Let him depart; his passport shall be made,And crowns for convoy put into his purse;We would not die in that mans companyThat fears his fellowship to die with us.This day is calld the feast of Crispian.He that outlives this day, and comes safe home,Will stand a tip-toe when this day is namd,And rouse him at the name of Crispian.He that shall live this day, and see old age,Will yearly on the vigil feast his neighbors,And say To-morrow is Saint Crispian.Then will he strip his sleeve and show his scars,And say These wounds I had on Crispians day.Old men forget; yet all shall be forgot,But hell remember, with advantages,What feats he did that day. Then shall our names,Familiar in his mouth as household words-Harry the King, Bedford and Exeter,Warwick and Talbot, Salisbury and Gloucester-Be in their flowing cups freshly remembred.This story shall the good man teach his son;And Crispin Crispian shall neer go by,From this day to the ending of the world,But we in it shall be remembered-We few, we happy few, we band of brothers;For he to-day that sheds his blood with meShall be my brother; be he neer so vile,This day shall gentle his condition;And gentlemen in England now-a-bedShall think themselves accursd they were not here,And hold their manho ods cheap whiles any speaksThat fought with us upon Saint Crispins day.

Don’t Drink the Kool Aid On November 18, 1978 what has been called the largest mass suicide in modern history occurred in Jonestown, Guyana where 909 members of The Peoples Temple died. Jim Jones was the leader of the Peoples Temple Church and religious movement. The church was looked highly upon by many back in the 1950-1970’s. All races and backgrounds were brought together as one in his congregation. Religion serves as a sanctuary from the harshness of everyday life and oppression by the powerful. Most of Jones’s followers lived lives that they were dissatisfied with and they felt as if the movement gave them a purpose. Many of his followers believed that Jim brought more opportunities into their lives and allowed them to change for†¦show more content†¦Jim would provide clothing, medical care, food, and anything else that his followers needed. They deprived themselves of sleep to work and support Jim Jones and the movement. Jim Jones believed, â€Å"sell all things and have things in common.† Religion, especially Jones’s, binds members and allows them to have common values and beliefs. His followers sold everything they had and gave all of their money to the church, including their pay checks. His followers trusted in him, so they did and acted however he said. Jim began to take complete control over every aspect of these people’s lives. His followers were idolizing him and putting him before family, work, and everything else in their lives. As time passed, Jim Jones and the movement began to change. Some say that Jones began to lose control. He began drinking and using drugs and started to go crazy. Jim Jones became extremely paranoid and thought the whole world was against him and his movement. Jones was so paranoid that he even started to fear for his own life. He compared himself and his movement to Malcom X and Martin Luther King Jr., which were both assassinated, so he was afraid the same would happen to him. Jones was desperate to get his followers away from the negative influences of the public.

Globalization of Academic Innovation

Question: Discuss about the Globalization of Academic Innovation. Answer: Introduction The phenomenon of globalization has a long history, which has led to increased economic integration among the countries. Fact that the globalization has transformed the world cannot be denied as it has brought many good things to the developing countries. It has continuously led to the deindustrialization of America. Every major section of world economy is dominated by the globalization. This neoliberal globalization has accelerated the global mega trend of political instability, rising inequality and absolute poverty, which are adversely affecting the lives and threatening the futures of the nation of the world. The aim of the developing a developed nations is to have equitable, domestic, sustainable and free societies in this regard, it is viable to question the benefits of various dimensions of globalization. There are certain issues associated with the dimensions of globalization. One of the major economical challenges faced in globalization is consistent high unemployment that is reinforced due to increased population growth rate and labor force. One of the major challenge posed by increased reach of global markets. This increase in inequality majorly happens in China and India. This increase in inequality in and across countries encourages the emigration process of highly skilled citizens. It had been criticized that globalization is dis-equalizing in most of the domains. Critical Analysis on Globalization Unequal Globalization- One of the major challenge posed by increased reach of global markets. There are several reasons considering tremendous economic gains in association with deeper as well as efficient global markets (Spring 2014). Most of the integrated trade markets, global technology and capital flows give rise to increase the demand for skills in a rapid global environment. This increase in inequality majorly happens in China and India. This increase in inequality in and across countries encourages the emigration process of highly skilled citizens. It had been criticized that globalization is dis-equalizing in most of the domains. One of the classic examples is market failure. In the global markets, it tends for dis-equalizing aspects such as global security as well as shared prosperity and global social justice (Sassen 2015). Large debt burden of developing countries- It had been witnessed that there was remarkable shift present in changing economic trends for the past few years (Pieterse 2015). There occur issues like current account imbalances, volatile capital flows as well as misaligned exchange rates and finacialization. This affected the commodity markets and faced severe crisis in the developing countries (Altbach 2015). Debate continues by properly discussing relevant monetary, income policies as well as fiscal policies for addressing the continuing fallout from severe crisis. Therefore, International community is falling short due to delivering solutions especially for minimizing the long-standing challenges of aspects such as poverty, climate change as well as food security and debt burden (McGrew and Lewis 2013). Protectionism despite WTO- Evidence showed that there was hidden protectionism that was hard to monitor and count at the same time. After the global financial crisis, there had been cited instances of Governments where measures had been undertaken by playing in favor of domestic commercial interests (Kaplinsky 2013). This protectionism takes into consideration WTO global architecture of trade rules as well as spread of regional trade agreements. In contrast, McGrew and Lewis (2013) stated that in the current years WTO and several others have started warning regarding protectionism. WTO reports are deemed trade-based developments that cover overall WTO membership along with observers. Large-scale environmental degradation- It is argued that trade reduces pollution because of greater competitive pressure or greater access for greener production technologies. In this globalization era, developing countries enhances their interdependence with the help of international trade (Crane, Kawashima and Kawasaki 2016). Widening gap between rich and poor- Globalization widens the wealth gap with advanced economies outpacing the developing countries. In other words, Globalization has increased prosperity in and across the world whereby people in advanced global economies benefits disproportionately in the recent developing world (Breznitz and Etzkowitz 2016). Globalization has narrowed down poverty between rich as well as poor from one country to other. For instance, GDP per capital in China and India whereby economic reforms enters in the global economy considering WTO membership for improving the average income of population Socio-Cultural Homogenization Cultural Homogenization is an important aspect of cultural globalization and it is considered as one of the main features that lead to decrease in cultural diversity. It takes place through diffusion and popularization of broad display of symbols of culture. This occurs among physical objects as well as among values, ideas and customs. According to Altbach (2015), the process by which the local cultures are absorbed or transformed by an outside culture (dominant) is termed as Cultural Homogenization. It has been found that this cultural homogenization has supported and played a great role in globalization. For example, people of any country can enjoy the identical taste of coffee of Starbucks by sitting in their homes. It has been found that within less than half a century, Starbucks coffee chain has expanded from one outlet in Seattle to about 20,000 shops across the world in 60 countries. Less Diversity According to Kaplinsky (2013), the discourse about the impacts of globalization on cultural diversity is considered as a challenging debate. However, Breznitz and Etzkowitz (2016) argued that the advancement and the modernization of the technology has dissolved the boundaries among various international countries and has opened the culture to a new arena. Therefore, it can be said that less diversity enables in occurring globalization successfully. For example, the most common language is English that is used all over the world and therefore, it can be said that globalization has resulted into decrease in diversity. However, it has been found that globalization has also some negative effects on the factor of diversity. These include the globalization disempowered the people through misrepresentation, colonization takes place so loss of individualism takes place. Moreover, it can be said that globalization can lead to loss of identity. Struggle over Scarce Resource As per Pieterse (2015), the globalization leads to increase in demand for the resources. Therefore, it resulted into scarcity in the resources as the globalized business means huge customer base and therefore, in order to fulfill the demand of the clients, more production is also required. Thus, it can be said that due to globalization, some of the entrepreneurs have to struggle for getting resources for the manufacturing or production of the goods. For example, scarcity in the natural resources hampers many businesses. Wars Opined to Spring (2014), the globalization always does not result into peace, rather it originates war among the entrepreneurs as well as among the countries. The reason behind this is that the globalization of a particular business hampers the local business in the same field by occupying the local market by international products. For example, the products of China have occupied the markets of other countries. Technology Dimension According to Majeed (2015), the world has become economically and culturally alike because of globalization. Presently, globalization is regarding the shrinking of the world due to the revolutionary changes within the technologies of transportation and communication. It produces the newer and uneven development. Ethical Dimension It has been found that globalization has resulted into respect for the global worker rights. Therefore, the satisfied workers perform ethically and provide better performance in their work. Economical- Economic challenges faced because of the effect of globalization in Arab includes short term political wrangling that can be observed from several economic excursions of youth within the Middle East. Moreover, inequality can affect social cohesion that results in issues such as high violence. Political- Globalization is observed to bring out problems such as global conflict, environmental issues, terrorism and insufficient political institutions for dealing with them. Political issues takes place for the reason that globalization impacts employment and economic status of people. Impact of Globalization on Arab Countries It has been found that oil is considered as a resource on which the economy of UAE depends and due to globalization, the market of oil has expanded largely and thus the economy of the country is enriched. Therefore, globalization leads to creation of new job opportunities in UAE. Globalization influences on the reality of Arab and this impose the conditions on the nation of Arab by not there apparition. However, according to the concept of colonialism, without providing Arab interests any effect, as it did not raise a prototype of commerce with them, if that model negatively or positively, and alternative to the probabilities or revolutionary slogans might lack impartiality. Conclusion At the end of the study, it is concluded that Globalization resulted considering best interest of both developed as well as developing countries. The above report discuss the issues concerning with dimensions of Globalization. The assignment brings into account the potential causes whereby globalization is lacking in serving the developing countries to achieve future prosperous life in terms of poverty, unemployment and other issues. Therefore, it can be said that the dimensions of globalization have both positive and negative effect on the international market. Reference List Altbach, P., 2015.
