Lessons from Previous Leaderships Making of mistakes is common in organizational leadership since I have never seen a perfect leader through the mistakes should be minimized to avoid high production costs and loss to the organization. From my experience from the workforce, I have learned some aspects from the human resource department based on hurried recruitment in order to fill a position which is critical in the organization since it cannot operate without that vacancy being filled. This results in inconveniences in the workplace due to the hiring of ineffective, incompetent and unproductive personnel. The organization will be subjected to offer additional training slowing the operations of the business. Additionally, precious resources and time are lost in the process of finding a replacement. Being too friendly with the employees in the workplace is a mistake that I have learned from other leaders and will never tolerate in my leadership process. This triggers lack of respect from employees who sometimes disobey some tough commands and decisions imposed on them by taking advantage of your friendship. I have witnessed mediocrity emerge in…

Culture and Leadership Culture is a cognitive element in a business organization since it is part of the macro-environment having a strategic impact on the direction of the business. Business culture entails understanding and conceptualization of the people’s norms, values, and their acceptable traditional behaviors. However, it doesn’t only incorporate national culture but also business culture inclusive of giving directions on handling social media, internships, meetings and also formalities. Being brought up in a state in the United States where diversification of culture was rare, I grew up understanding only a single culture which may be a challenge in dealing with the other cultures of the globe. Leading a group full of diversity of culture is accompanied by a lot of dilemmas due to lack of knowledge on interaction with individuals from different cultures. Leaders should always cross-cultural type of leadership to help them sort the issues of the cross-cultural environment. Moreover, abolishment of ethnocentrism should be exercised to combat the dilemma since it will assist in equalizing all the cultures. Also, a leader should understand the cultural values of…

Philosophy of Sport Question 1. (A)    Perspectives of cheating and fair play in sport according to Leaman and Delattre Positions of cheating and fair play in sport as argued by Leaman Leaman says that it is not easy to define cheating in a sport as thought initially and that it is just difficult to specify why such behavior is wrong. He offers the right definition of cheating in a sport as the act through which the conditions for winning that are agreed manifestly or latently change in favor of one side (Dixon, 10).  As a result, the principle of equality of chance that may occur beyond the difference between skills and strategy is violated. However, the problem with this definition from Leaman is, it omits any consideration. He claims that if a boxer possesses an unlawful substance that can damage the body of another player when applied without his or her knowledge, the boxer has not cheated. This is an act of breaking the rules of the game which the boxer does to his own advantage yet Leaman does not…
