MGMT314: Week #8 Paper:

INCLUDE AN ABSTRACT Body of your paper: 5-6 page Paper For this assignment, you should focus on the reading material for weeks 1-7.

Also, use our library to support your positions.

The body of your paper: (5-6 Pages total in length)- Show me that you are attempting to support your thoughts with key material from our reading material AND outside sources: Answer the following five questions: 1. What are some of the most common forms of unethical behavior in our workforce today? How could leadership in organizations help to minimize this ethical misconduct? Explain and support your positions with relevant course content and outside sources. 2. As our businesses have developed over the last 100 plus years, have our modern day businesses evolved to be more ethical today? What are some of the factors that helped you come to your conclusion? Take a position and support your thoughts. 3. Would you describe the financial meltdown in our 2007-2008 financial markets as a failure of “people” or of our “capital market processes”? Why? Support your thoughts with ethical theory and examples. Use our library for added research if needed. 4. Tell me about why diversity and discrimination are two important ethical factors that leaders should focus on while attempting to manage their workforce? Provide one example of how mismanaging these issues have had an impact on an organization. How would you explain the importance of these to your employees? 5. Are corporate outreach and company-sponsored volunteer programs a good idea for organizations to implement? Why? From an ethical leadership perspective, why would you choose OR not choose to implement these programs? Use the course theory and specific examples to support your conclusion.

Descartes’s view of the relationship between the mind and the body, known today as Cartesian Dualism.

/in /by

We discussed Descartes’s view of the relationship between the mind and the body, known today as Cartesian Dualism.

Descartes’s view of the relationship between the mind and the body

Should we agree or disagree with Descartes on his interpretation of the relationship between the mind and the body? Why or why not? As part of your discussion you should consider what are the relevant concerns with both adopting and rejecting the Cartesian view on this matter? Be sure to explain the Cartesian Dualist position, discuss plausible alternatives to dualism, and consider relevant objections to your preferred position.

You may use (and are encouraged to use) relevant connected material from the course as part of your discussion. Papers MUST be typed and double-spaced in 12-point Calibri or Arial font with 1-inch justified margins.  To receive any credit for the assignment a student’s paper must be at least 1000 words in length.  Students should strive to submit a paper that is at least 1500 words in length.

 These word counts DO NOT include elements of the paper irrelevant to understanding and justifying the thesis of the paper: bibliographic information, identifying elements at the top of the paper such as student name, course name and number, instructor name, etc. will not be counted in reaching the minimum word count for credit. In other words, what matters is the body of the paper. This should be obvious, but if not, you have now been instructed on this matter as well. Do not be surprised if you turn in a paper that is in reality only 997 words and receive no credit for your submission. o

As a final suggestion, DO NOT aim for the minimum. Aiming for the minimum is a good way to do poorly. Instead, aim for more than the minimum and do your best work. That way, if you come up a little short of your goal, you will still likely have met the minimum requirements of the assignment and likely will still receive some credit for your work. Falling short of the minimum on the other hand results in no credit at all. 

When utilizing reference material in his/her term paper, each student should reference the material via footnote (NOT in text citation or endnote) in a way that makes clear where the material originated. o If you are not familiar with the proper way to utilize footnotes, come to office hours for individual instruction. o Note that a “footer” is NOT the same as footnotes. These are different features and have different names for a reason. If you do not understand, come to office hours and ask!

Literary Value Research Essay

/in /by

For this essay we’re going to be arguing in defense of the stories we love and discussing what “literary value” means. Academia has been throwing around terms like “literary value” and “literary merit” for centuries. However, this debate still exists today and has grown to include other mediums, like music, film, and television. Most of the time, these arguments have been used as a way to dismiss the stories that are enjoyed by the masses as being inferior or less significant. Well, you are the masses and you are also scholars, so here is your chance to enter this conversation. Choose a specific genre and medium (you can get more specific if you want and choose a sub-genre or even an intended audience) and argue in defense of its literary value. Ask yourself: How are other people defining literary value and what is your definition of literary value? What about this genre makes it meaningful? Valuable? Unique? Important? Why are the people who think it isn’t “valuable literature” completely and totally wrong? Purpose: (the fancy version) to be able to synthesize multiple works of your choosing, recognize patterns, close read your evidence, and position your analysis of the genre in conversation with critics. (the root version) to be able to express your ideas about the stories you love, understand why you love them, and to passionately argue in their defense. Audience: (You have several- try to cover all your bases here) 1. people who have never read/watched/listened to or experienced your genre (so they need your help to understand it). 2. AND people who have read/watched/ listened to or experienced your genre and think it’s not literature and has no value, (so they need you to convince them it does). 3. AND people who have read/watched/listened to or experienced your genre and need you to express your ideas so they can feel less alone. Tone: again, this is always up to you. Be angry. Be passionate. Be heartbroken, or sarcastic. Use whatever voice you think will help you accomplish the reaction you want from us. Include: At least 3 primary sources as examples of your chosen genre. At least 2 secondary sources to engage in conversation with. These do not have to be scholarly sources. At least one of them must be a source that disagrees with some element of your argument. Examples of Genres to choose from : Mystery (Subgenres- detective, crime drama, psychological thrillers, suspense thrillers, etc.) Comedy (Subgenres- parody, rom-com, slapstick, raunchy comedy, etc.) Action Adventure (Subgenres- epics, military stories, spy fiction, westerns, disaster stories etc.) Horror (Subgenres- Slasher, ghost stories, monster stories, supernatural horror, gothic horror Examples of Mediums to choose from: Music Film Television Intended audiences for your genre:Children Young Adults Adults
