Instead of holding on to all 3,000 issued stock options, Ms. Jameson could keep a portion of the stock options and trade some in the market. Keeping some Telstar stock options would help keep her tied to the company without making her feel that she is bound to the company for the next five years or that she is facing enormous risk of losing her bonus altogether. By doing this, Ms. Jameson would provide herself with the opportunity to make investments outside of Telstar, and thus, better diversify her

Another leadership strength I possess is motivating subordinates. I often encourage coworkers to strive for their goals, whether it be going back to further their education or changing jobs. I truly believe if we are unhappy the retention rates are lower and their work is not high-quality. I often motivate subordinates by offering rewards for exemplary work. A recent night shift two staff nurses and myself received eight admissions in four hours—the reward that night was ice cream.

My mother, who I will refer to as “The Woman,” was a Walmart employee for 13 years. “Hello, how are you?” she always asked as customers entered the door. Many stared at her as if she was a female alien. Yet, she continued to smile. Many would pat her on the head and spoke to her slowly, because they believed her wheelchair made her intellectually inapt. Yet, she continued to smile. Many yelled at her, accusing her of racial appropriation, for she does not look or act African American. Yet, she continued to smile. Inside, she understood these customers did not know her superiority over them. She understood they did not know she is a single mother of two girls, works day and night to provide for her children and has the education

At a first you may think that Allie Vaughn had been bred for a future in the government (although you wouldn’t know if you looked at her on account of her startling pink hair), just ask her a few questions about herself and you would be hard pressed not to find the perfect mold of a future politician.

Shipwreck at the Bottom of the World is a fictional book, written by Jennifer Armstrong. It tells the true and extraordinary tale of the Imperial Trans-Antarctic Expedition, led by Sir Ernest Shackleton 1914-17. All of the men worked extremely hard to get back home alive, but three men stood out the most. Those three men are: Sir Ernest Shackleton, Frank Worsley, and Tom Crean. These men were definitely the most essential to the entire expedition, and took part in almost every single task executed.

After interviewing the CEO of Riley Robbins Films, and asking him about the importance of communication skills within his company, I had a better understanding of what the expectations that a company has, when adding a new member to his team. Overall, I am part of his team, and his top manager. Over the last decade, employer surveys have consistently shown that strong communication skills are critical to effective job placement, performance, career advancement, and organizations success. In making hiring decisions, employers often rank communication skills among the most desirable competencies;(Business Communication 8th Edition, Ch.1 pg. 4). Upon asking the CEO of Riley Robbins Films of what he looks for when hiring a manager or adding a new member to his team. His response was clear, and brief, but comprehensive.

Julia Stewart is a very successful business woman. She identifies the significance of crediting employees for their work and thereby increasing their morale. I would love to work for Julia Stewart in a management position. I have held a few jobs in the health care setting. Only two of those positions can I honestly say that I really enjoyed my job. Looking back to those jobs I enjoyed best, I discovered most of my supervisor’s management traits were similar to Ms. Stewart’s. Rarely is a person trained to perform a job perfectly after being hired on a new job. All employees including management must undergo a training period before they are proficiently effective.

Elizabeth Peyton is an American painter who rose to popularity in the mid 1990’s. She was born in Danbury, Connecticut in 1965, where her father and stepmother had a candle-making business. She was born with only two fingers on her right hand, and so she learned to draw with her left hand. In interviews, she has said that celebrities fascinated her even as a child, particularly the tennis and ice-skating stars of the 1970s, but her interests took a musical turn when her older sister introduced her to the seminal British punk band The Clash.

Leaders empower, educate, and inspire others to strive for further development in excellence along with creating opportunities. In addition, it takes a special kind of person in this life to see the value of an individual’s gifts. In the first place, I would like to begin on how I met this influential leader, Mrs. Sherry Reynolds. At my previous employment, Mrs. Reynold held a position as a Chief Nursing Officer in 2015. Moreover, Mrs. Reynold’s offered me the opportunity to be her nurse manager after several offers, on the contrary, was flattered, unsure of my leadership skills, but eventually accepted the management role. Consequently, intrusive disaccords arose in Mrs. Reynold’s life in which she had

To be an affective sales manager at Phoenix, Mrs. Richardson needed to be able to bring together this group of insubordinate employees who seemingly did not work well as a team. Of these employees, only a few had been meeting or exceeding expectations of the organization. More so the attitudes of the employees were so far from acceptable that there is question as to why they held the positions that they did. Alex Hoffman, top sales representative, showed little respect for Mrs. Richardson, however as he consistently brought in sales he was not a candidate to let go. Although, Mrs. Richardson still should have had a discussion with Mr. Hoffman about his actions and the fact that when other employees perceive his disrespect then they may in turn do the same. On top of that, Sarah Vega continuously showed up for work late and even missed one day per week on average. These actions are unacceptable in the workplace and worthy of termination. A third employee, Chelsea Peterson, showed absolutely no respect for her new sales manager. These sorts of actions do not deserve to go unnoticed or unpunished. Melissa Richardson should have scheduled a mandatory meeting for all employees in order to lay down the law. She needed to tell them all together as a team exactly what her expectations for

Written in 1843, The Tell-Tale Heart by Edgar Allan Poe incorporates nearly all of the gothic elements. While this piece of art may not contain all of the gothic elements, it is the epitome of a gothic short story. In The Tell-Tale Heart, the setting seems to be inside an old house, which strengthens the atmosphere of mystery and suspense. The madness and overall insanity of the narrator illustrates the sense of high, overwrought emotion. The presence of creaking hinges and the darkness represent the metonymies of gloom and horror throughout the story. Sustaining the atmosphere of the gothic, the appropriate vocabulary also maintains the atmosphere of suspense, the overwrought emotion, and the metonymies of gloom and horror. In combination, the elements that are utilized in this short story create a gothic masterpiece and each element individually influences the plot of The Tell-Tale Heart.
