Theory X and Theory Y were first explained by McGregor in his book, 'The Human Side of Enterprise,' and they refer to two styles of management authoritarian which is (Theory X) and participative (Theory Y). This is the one of the theory that some of the organisation can apply, if believe that any of the organisation team members dislike their work, do not perform well and have little motivation, then, according to McGregor, an organisation can use an authoritarian style of management which means this approach is very "hands-on" and usually involves micromanaging people's work to ensure that it gets done properly and McGregor called this as Theory X. On the other hand, if believe that an organisation people take pride in their work and see it as a challenge then it’s more likely adopt a participative management style. Managers who use this approach trust their people to take ownership of their work and do it effectively by themselves and help in increasing the company’s outcomes with their performance it’s called as Theory Y.

Furthermore, this video also explains more about Douglas McGregor who created this theory, he is a social pyshocologist and a management professor at the M.I.T. Sloan School of Management and President of Antioch College on (1948-1954). McGregor found out a method of creating an environment with employees who have motivated and it’s called as theory X and theory Y through these theory managers can easily identify and categories the employees in an
Natural Law theory is a very appealing theory by Christians and those who believe in the significance in every single thing. Natural Law would answer the question “Should a family have a second child to save the first” with a yes. In this theory, natural function comes into play. This is that everything “serves to achieve some desirable end or goal” (182.) In this case, Marissa-Eve was conceived for a natural function.
when it comes to our first order desires because we cannot control them. But, we cultivate free will through our second order desires by using will power. Thus, free will ignores the external aspects of a human being, instead, it is developed internally (Frankfurt). Through the theories and arguments of Roderick Chisholm and Harry Frankfurt, free will is explained and defined.
No individual should have to bear the chains of slavery. Because to hold someone physically and mentally captive is not only wrong, it’s a deprivation of our natural born right to freedom. In 1845, a southerner, George Fitzhugh writes a pamphlet called Slavery Justified, portraying slavery as beneficial to all. The article ‘‘Logical Fallacies’’ by Maggie Escalas, Julie Freia, and Carrie Jean Schroeder, destroys the validity of Fitzhugh’s claims. The Narrative of the Life of Frederick Douglass is the compelling evidence to why Fitzhugh’s arguments are false, given that Douglass recounts his harsh experience as a slave.
The authors this week all proposed the fundamental issue with current theories as the ignoring of the female gender and how current theories assume motives for crime to be equal across genders. Simpson (1989) and Chesney-Lind (2006) take the biggest stance on how not only gender influences criminal perspectives but race as well. This is an extremely important notion. Colored women do not experience the chivalry that white women are often afforded under the system. While the current belief is that women in general are subjected to less harsher punishments than men, this is simply not the case.
1.Plantation fiction Plantation fiction glorifies slavery and worships slave masters and tells of story of loyal slaves who would never betray their master. The Passing of Grandison is a critique of plantation fiction. Dick Owens, son of a wealthy slave master is in pursuit of Charity Lomax who told him “I’ll never love you Dick Owens, until you have done something. When that time comes, I’ll think about it.”. Dick sets a plan to take his servant Tom on his trip to the north.
1) Identify aspects of Jim Quintero’s management style according to the four main management theories (Classical, Behavioral, Systems, and Contingency). While most organizations can more than likely identify at least some aspects from each of the four management theories, Quintero’s steel company identifies most with the Behavioral Approach with aspects of the Systems and Contingency Approach blending together in my opinion. Not having much detail on Cool Steel Company’s (CSC) organizational structural it is difficult to determine how much management falls under the Classical Approach, but seeing there are managers (not first-level supervisors) and reviewing Henri Fayol’s general principals, one can assume a structure of sorts. There are several examples of the Behavioral Approach (e.g., trusting, respect, responsibility…) that will be covered in more detail in response to question number two. It is clear that CSC’s success would be in line with the practices described in the cooperative system outlined in the Systems Approach and by virtue of employees being given the ability or responsibility to make decisions; the Contingency Approach can be applied.
Molinism has been the subject of many discussions in analytic philosophy of religion ever since Alvin Plantinga accepted it in his Free Will Defense against the "Logical" Argument from Evil. Molinism presupposes libertarian freedom. Libertarianism, is defined as the proposition that opportunity is contradictory with causal determinism, in addition to the case, some of our activities are free. The debate over Molinism is gravitated around several sets of ideals, for this paper I will focus on the theoretical Tie objection and God’s middle knowledge. The main focus of Molinism is the proposition that God has middle knowledge.
John Tierney’s piece is very interesting. It goes against I and many other people have been taught when it comes to recycling. As I read his article I kept saying to myself, oh wow, I never taught of that or that is an interesting perspective. When it comes to the environment I am not someone who keeps up with it
Claim 1. O’Brien wants his readers to feel the embarrassment of trying to run from his problems. Reasoning and Evidence O’Brien tries to portray embarrassment through his own testimony.

The United States is a government founded upon the principles of equality, or are we? That is the question studied and debated by historians of American history. Our founding fathers motives are scrutinized through the study of their personal letters, historical documents, and public records. Two historians, Howard Zinn and Gordon S. Wood, support opposing viewpoints. Howard Zinn describes the Founding Fathers as only interested in writing the Constitution to upholding the wealthy’s power.
Finally, the quality of counterargument expressed throughout Garretson’s essay, has also been effected by her biased stance on vegetarianism, because she has been unable to display and acknowledge opposing views in her piece. It is very important for one to present counterarguments in their writing because it shows that the writer is not narrow-minded, and instead, is fair by considering other perspectives. Additionally, the use of counterargument adds credibility to a writing and makes the arguments that one presents more believable and trustworthy. Since Garretson does not display or acknowledge any opposing views in her essay, her arguments lose a great deal of credibility. There are many different approaches that Garretson could have taken
Although motivating employees can be a challenge, a number of theories about motivation at work can be used as a basis for creating practices, procedures and processes to affect employee
Elon Musk’s Style of Communication The way a business leader communicates has a great influence on the organization’s internal and external operations. Elon Musk, being engaged in multiple kinds of businesses emphasizes on making his communication quite direct and objective oriented.

This theory is probably the most essential motivation theory due to its perspective insight into human nature by interpreting the human behavior and actions. By applying this theory into its motivation and rewarding system, AirAsia would be able to motivate its employees as well as satisfying their needs. This is because AirAsia would have benefit by creating a workplace or environment that meets the needs of the employees such as food, shelter, health and job security, friendship and family as well as acknowledgement and recognition. This will then lead to a higher self-esteem and self-actualization among the employees which will results in unleashing the full potential of the employees in their daily business operations. This theory was widely popular among practicing managers including AirAsia’s managers because it is easy to understand and
