Representation in Democracy – Congressional Representatives Introduction In the United States today, elections allow voters to exercise democratic rights. This electoral process is significant to every American who is concerned about the selection of leaders that can transform the lives of general members of this great country. At the state and national level, various representatives occupy top seats, through which they are expected to fulfil democratic responsibilities to the voters. Such leaders include governors, district representatives, senior and junior senators, among others. District representatives, for example, are essential for introducing bills, making recommendations about possible amendments, and serve in various committees to find solutions. Thus, it is crucial to focus on one of these congressmen and women, precisely from the state of Georgia. The objective is to understand the background of the individual, occupations, political experience and the policies initiated by the subject legislator. Georgia’s present-day representatives The state of Georgia has many famous politicians that stand for the interest of the voters. These legislators include the current senators, David Perdue and Kelly Loeffler, as well as the congressman, Mr…

Understanding Learners’ Needs Education is vital to the success of a person’s adult life and, by having the highest education as a parent, it is the best means to get the person off the right course. While many public schools have a bad reputation and little attention to detail for big classes, a charter school often has small classrooms that make it more individual. The fulfilment of individual criteria can be a daunting challenge for teachers. However, it is imperative to educate these students in engaging and active lifelong learners. This is a significant move away from the conventional form of “checking teaching.” Moving to a more personal approach may reduce stress on the teacher and learner of the classroom, especially in smaller sizes. Below is my 2 Grade class roster, a mock classroom that I have identified. Baker, James Brown, Joe Giles, Paula Hammer, Andrew Harrold, Terrance James, Marcus Jenkins, Simone Lee, Michelle Malik, Miles Mitchell, Stuart Rivera, Veronica Sanchez, Maria Sears, Marcia Smith, Amanda Smith, Anita Since learning my mock class, I’ve learned to know their personal…

Urban Challenges Topic 1: Sustainability in an Urban Century From this week’s resources, I have learned that addressing the critical challenges from increased urbanization determines the creation of sustainability in the entire universe. The skyrocketing urbanization poses significant problems such as pollution and encroachment on the coastline leading to adverse effects of climate change and global warming (Elmqvist, 2019, p. 267-273). For example, the Bayview marina urban development in Darwin in just located along the coastline. The urban century has witnessed an increasing percentage of the population migrating to the urban areas. For instance, in Australia, the people living in the cities today are 86%, and in 2050, 91% of Australians will be living in the cities. I also learned that urbanization problems require transformative solutions to curb the future occurrence of similar issues and their impacts on the universe. Sustainability is significant in ensuring the next generation will have a place to live. Besides, sustainability in the urban century will ensure there is equitable distribution of resources hence preventing civil wars among the urban dwellers. Sustainability will create a…
Business Research Methods Part 1 For the case study of Uber, we will develop quantitative research where the study is about the effect that a specific burden has on ridership. Different challenges tend to be encountered by the riders that hinder them from operating effectively during their working hours. The burden I have selected for the case study is; Discernment in the workplace. Research Questions After the riders have encountered any discrimination, does it matter in their workplace? Does any discernment cause any changes in the brand of the fairness of Uber in the workplace? If there are changes in the brand of fairness, does it affect ridership behavior positively or negatively? If there are changes in ridership performance or behavior, do they switch to another brand? Hypotheses From each of the research questions above, a different hypothesis has to be considered. Hypothesis 1: Any kind of discernment in the working place affects the riders. Hypothesis 2: Discernment of riders in their working place will cause a decline in brand equity of Uber. Hypothesis 3: Due to discrimination at work,…
FOUR QUESTIONS TEST Question #1 1. Means of production are the non-human or physical inputs that are used in the production process. These include equipment or tools, raw materials, and industrial units. When workers own the means of production, it means they have total control over all the means of production, and thus they cannot be exploited in any way. Controlling means of production enables workers to have control over their work processes and management over their work. Accordingly, the sharing of profits is based on the individual contribution of the workers. Thus they are motivated to work for long hours if they intend to receive more, and in this way, production is increased. Also, there is equal access to social amenities like healthcare and education, and those who do not work are also provided with basic needs since natural resources are preserved for the whole society. . 2. In a capitalist economy, the degree of manipulation is both commercial and sociological since it articulates capital’s societal and administrative control above labour, and also, capitalism’s essential predisposition toward an…

LEVEL 5 LEADERSHIP Executive summary The level 5 leadership provides Jim Collins’s story, having spent 20o years trying to figure out how firms maintain superlative competitive performance. Collins focused on leadership despite having developed seven factors crucial for a company’s success. In 1971, Darwin Smith took over as the executive to a stodgy old paper company. Prior to the take over the company had experienced a 36% decrease in market value for about 20 years (Jim, 2001). Smith made a huge turnaround at Kimberly-Clark, which can be perceived as one of the best managers in the 20th century. Smith undertook a series of activities that changed the firm from a mere company to a great business hence forming an extemporal example of a level 5 leader. The book exemplifies that Smith blended great humility with a great deal of professionalism while carrying out his designated duties. As such, Collins outline that we should expect level 5 leadership to be counterintuitive and countercultural. The author states that people expect company changers to be big personalities such as Dunlap and Welch,…
