Team Leadership As a team leader, I will always be required to make decisions that will help the organization achieve its goals. Sometimes a leader is forced to do so under significant pressure from various stakeholders. Regardless of the degree of pressure, a leader is expected to act in ways that will lead to the best outcomes possible. For that reason, leaders are expected to develop strategies for making the best possible decisions based on the fact that they can significantly impact the organization’s future. The role of team leaders is of significant importance in businesses and other types of organizations. Businesses that make better and faster decisions are in a better position to exploit business opportunities. They are also less likely to have pitfalls. Intentional and unintentional approaches As a leader, I will develop a decision making strategy to improve the outcomes and to facilitate the attainment of organizational goals. Before making important decisions, I would first reframe the problem. According to Shepherd and Rudd (2014), sometimes the best way to move forward is by taking some steps back…
Criminal justice system Introduction The criminal justice system refers to the agencies implemented by a government and another process mainly for the jurisdiction of crimes. The system involves swaying sanctions or penalties to individuals violating laws. Criminal justice system operation is dependable on the jurisdiction employed in a certain state. Thus, there are differences in the kind of administrations imposed and crime management practiced in various agencies. However, there are two main types of crime systems involved in every state, that is, state and federal systems. State criminal systems deal with crimes that are committed within the boundaries of the state (Raghavan & Mishra,2017). On the other hand, federal criminal justices deal with federal property crimes, usually informing various countries. In each case, the criminal justice system is typically set to practice truth to every civilian. Thus, the systems aim at convicting, punishing, and helping the guilty to stop violating laws. Therefore, the criminal justice systems seek to limit the offending rate in society and protect innocent individuals. The criminal justice system involves various components that ensure proper justice administration…
Altruism, poverty and community The brutality of poverty is almost inconceivable for anyone who has never experienced it. Extreme poverty leaves the poor at the mercy of philanthropic who have the desire in them to help them. The selfishness of the rich greatly influences the gap between the rich and the poor. The community can significantly benefit from selfless acts of helping the poor and the needy in our society, leading to a reduction in the poverty level. The primary focus of this paper is to discuss the relationship between altruism and poverty eradication in the community. Acts of altruism encourage charitable donations. Contributions from well-wishers play a very significant role in poverty eradication in our societies. People who are selfless in their giving derive their happiness in other people’s happiness. Their acts of giving are mainly driven by their passion for reducing the suffering of the other person and seeing them happy. There is a significant number in our societies who live below the poverty line, and the numerous donations from good wishers help improve the living conditions of…
extended parallel process model theory In online advertisements, a fear appeal is described as a specific message that has been developed to scare a particular group of people that has been intended. This is done by describing threats that are very serious to the audience that has been targeted. This tactic is generally used in motivating the targeted group of people either to take part or not to take part in various behaviors that are based on fear. Various theories have been brought up regarding the fear appeal. These theories are the protection of motivation theory, the acquired fear-driven model, and the process that is a parallel model (“advertisement health appeals – Google Search,” 2020). Even though these theories do exist, there is one theory that overrides all of the other methods as it expands research and helps to make the fear appeal more effective. This theory is popularly known as the extended parallel process model theory, abbreviated as EPPM. This theory is interested in how threats that are perceived and perceived efficacy may lead to a specific change in…

whistleblowing law For employees to be covered by the whistleblowing law, they must reasonably believe that first, they are acting in the public interest and that the disclosure will likely show past, present, and future company malpractices. Also, engineers are expected to display high levels of honesty and integrity (“Code of Ethics | National Society of Professional Engineers,” 2020). My first step would be to confirm the details of the report with relevant people, particularly those involved in the study. Similarly, a clear, easy to use reporting channel promotes transparency and inspires confidence in the service by a whistleblower (Ruggiero, 2012). Perhaps the most widely used and the least formal means will be reporting to the supervisor, and in this case, it is the chief project manager. The chief project manager would confirm if, indeed, he is aware of the accusation. The first choice for a whistleblower is not generally to go to press. Any informant with serious allegations should determine first what their arguments are and how credible is the proof. In this case, if the chief project manager…
Sociology: Moonlight (2016) How does the film demonstrate that race (as constructed and perceived) truly shapes life chances? Racial blackness is represented in the film by black and blue colours. Both black and blue served as both visual and emotional of performed, archetypal weakness and hardness. Characters struggled to place themselves in some ways of black and blue embody the dichotomy of ‘soft’ and hard thought the film. The performance of hardness and toughness is opted by both Chiron and Juan, which represented by their gangster lifestyles. This takes shape not only in the colour of their skin but also in their dress, especially that in black’s case. Black and gold shade all things he owns. In contrast, the film’s expression of softness and vulnerability in men like Chiron seems to be served by blue. During the night when a woman told Juan that ‘in the moonlight, black boys look blue’ and award him ‘blue’ as a nickname, they describe and discussed literally of blue during that night. The nickname that was given to Juan was rejected. This means it…
CRIMINAL JUSTICE and Organizational culture theory Organizational culture theory was still at work despite its origin several years ago. It guides the institutions in the justice system. Organizational culture theory plays a significant role in determining the level of police’s job satisfaction. Culture has given meaning to police work and defined what may be termed as “good police,” considering that the culture primarily touches on police culture use of force and deviant behaviors that are rampant with the police force (Boke & Nalla, 2009). Because of the work of the police, which includes fighting crime, danger, authority, and efficiency, they have developed a feeling of suspicion and isolation from the public. Sometimes when executing their duties such as arresting suspects, the police face resistance from the public, which may, in turn, pauses danger to the police (Boke & Nalla, 2009). This explains the challenges that the police face in their work. Any criminal justice agency such as the police, therefore, have a culture that is intended to enhance their job satisfaction. The influential culture in the police department influences their…
