The masters revered by modern artists used whatever tools necessary to aid them in creating their masterpieces. This revelation is not a comfortable one for artists. Hockney feels that artists should learn from the lessons of the past. Artists should not limit themselves by using the advanced technology at their disposal. Like the old masters, artists should push the boundaries of what technology can help accomplish.
According to Finkelstein Iconoclasts don’t embark to coach or encourage others but what they are most concerned about is their work and their enthusiasm. They are completely engrossed on their vision that they are able to edify in an instinctive, natural way as a normal consequence of their zeal and in service to it. The second type of superbosses i.e. glorious bastards are less in tune to develop others than they are to triumphing; for them nothing is more important than winning. They may want glory and fame for themselves and they may be egoists, but they also recognize the victory of those around them as the conduit to that glory. The third type of superbosses identified by the author is benevolent nurturers.
One of the hardest fought for attributes of a brand is knowing that customers consider that the brand has value. We learned in our lesson that perceived value is a key attribute towards selling a brand. Writing a value proposition and keeping it current could help these business leaders to determine and clarify the unique characteristics their business will need to identify to better market their brand. In this paper, I desire to convey what a value proposition is and how it can help leaders chart a successful course through changing times.
While Wells Fargo has its own strategy to overcome its crisis (Thorne, 2011, p. 65), here are three alternatives to address its issue. The first alternative for Wells Fargo is to have a change in the corporate culture. The first step is to make sure that the board of directors, the president, and senior management have the ability and willingness to make ethical decisions, which should benefit the stakeholders. To guarantee this, the high-ranking personnel should go through an ethical decision-making training. The second step is for Wells Fargo to revise its codes of conduct.
While on the other hand, Bray et al (2011) defined ethical consumerism as the type of consumer activism or the responsibility of the consumer to take decision at the time of purchasing goods and services. It is noticed that ethical consumerism has evolved from previous movements of consumerism. This depicts the fact that in the recent era the concept of ethical consumption is increasing immensely as people are considering their duty towards society. Carrington et al (2014) argued that the main essence of ethical consumption is the deliberate and conscious decision of the buyer to purchase particular products the decision of which is based on the personal values and beliefs of consumers.

Theory of Reasoned Action is a model for prediction of behavioral intention spanning prediction of attitudes and normative beliefs (Southey, 2011; Pai & Huang, 2011). This theory has been used by researchers to technology adoption studies (Southey, 2011). The theory has developed by Martin Fishbein and Icek Ajzen (1975, 1980). Sadeghi and Farokhian (2011) stated, according to this theory, attitudes toward the behavior and subjective norms influence individual’s intent to adopt an innovation. Following equation shows clearly the association of these two factors.
Thus, the employees’ ethical behaviors are considered as an extension of the organizational culture. To clarify, the culture`s strength affects the ethical behaviors of its members. The concepts behind the ethical standards of an organizational culture are “high in risk tolerance, low to moderate in aggressiveness, and focused on means as well as outcomes” (Robbins and Judge, 2013, pp 526-527).

As important as it can be to see an organization financially grow, it is equally important to understand the needs and desires of employees. Creating a culture rich of motivation and unification can offer significant success for an organization.

Employees will trust that you will take into consideration their feelings even if you don’t meet eye to eye with them. Having this understanding of empathy empowers your employees the ability to succeed, thus building and enhancing relationships which in the long run improves production and efficiency. In conclusion, I thought The Fog of War and The Evolution of Modern Management on Robert McNamara where excellent sources to understand the limits of information and the irrational behavior of humans. It really goes to show that people in these powerful positions are humans too and the decisions they make are reflected by the prejudices from which all humans
I want to change the business world into one where people and social issues are emphasized. Cause marketing is a great tool for social change. It can unite groups of people to achieve one common goal. Using the confidence and skills I learn through this program, I can establish cause marketing campaigns and, in time, positively change the world. Lastly, just like my fellow scholars and alumni were mentors for me, I hope to help someone else.
In order to create a client centered treatment plan, what other information would you like to obtain to get a better picture of Darin? In order to get a better picture of Darin, it is important to collaborate with him (O’Brien & Hussey, 2012). Taking a client-centered approach to his situation is important so that as an OT, they get Darin’s viewpoint, his narrative, and desires (O’Brien & Hussey, 2012). Darin will help the OT recognize what occupations he desires to improve and work on in order to help him re-engage in them (O’Brien & Hussey, 2012). It is important to take a client-centered approach in order to understand Darin’s viewpoint and the occupations of interest (O’Brien & Hussey, 2012).
There are many concepts I learned in this Human Services course, but there are three main concepts I consider the most significant. I learned about the process of having a values in order to guide vision and mission statements, the significance of the locus of control, and the different way people may react to change. The first concept I learned about was values within a community.
