Conflict is to be expected in any group and, if managed properly, can actually lead to creative ideas and solutions. If managed incorrectly, however, as in the Blue-Green exercise, it can destroy a group. What lessons can be drawn from the Blue-Green exercise about conflict and competition within organizations?

Imagine owning half of an entire NFL football team. Well this is what it is like to be Jack Molloy in Red Zone. I’m reading Red Zone by Mike Lupica, and I’m on page 212. In Red Zone, Jack Molloy just led the New York Hawks to a Super Bowl. Even though they didn’t win, offers are coming in from everywhere to purchase the team. Jack needs to decide what to do with his half of the team before the season begins. In the novel, three lessons that Jack learns are money can’t buy you everything, loyalty is worth more than money, and that you should think hard before you do something.

“People who are unable to motivate themselves must be content with mediocracy no matter how impressive their other talents were.”- Andrew Carnegie

Playing baseball is something that would show up on a college application but its importance in my life can’t be overstated. Baseball has taught me many life lessons as well as opened doors that wouldn’t exist without it. The people that I have met, the coaches who have taught me the game, have all had a profound impact on the player and the person that I am today.

In Scratch Beginnings, Adam Shepard, the author, uses his story to teach many lessons. He emphasizes that people need to take responsibility for their lives and that people need to stop blaming others for their lack of success. He effectively portrays and attempts to persuade the audience to follow these lessons through his rhetorical strategies. In this particular passage, he utilizes a rhetorical question, a shift from first to second person, and examples that apply to the majority of his audience.

How is the subject of death used to aid the morals of the tales in selected stories by the brothers Grimm ?

Towards the end of his life Prussian statesman Otto von Bismarck (1815-1898) was quoted as saying, “One day the great European War will come out of some damned foolish thing in the Balkans”(“Archduke Ferdinand Assassinated”). On June 28 1914, Archduke Franz Ferdinand Heir to the Austrian throne was assassinated, bringing the entire European continent into a war. This assassination was orchestrated by a group of Serbian extremists associated with the Black Hand. Believing that their freedoms were being infringed upon; they aimed to weaken the Austrian Government by targeting high profile political figures. A mixture of nationalism and alliances created an environment where several nations needed

“If put to the pinch, an ounce of loyalty is worth a pound of cleverness” (Hubbard, 1924). One might wonder what A Message To Garcia is really about; the article is more than just a simple historical interest. Society today still has the man who only contributes to working when being overseen, only will do the work when being informed, dishes his or her duties on to others, quibbles or vindicate a claim when not being correct. A Message To Garcia talks about how a real hero is one who does their work without any complaints or questions. They do their work when not being watched, and even do it even when at home.

Does Macbeth relate to modern society? This can go both ways, there is some evidence that states it relates to society, and some that does not. Most of the story relates to Society for a good reason. If you have the ambition to get a task done, you would do anything to get it done. Even if you use immoral means to get done. When you use immoral means to get a task done there can be problems. This all relates to Macbeth and his desire to become king. He killed King Duncan so that he could become king. He then became a suspect of killing King Duncan in the story later on. This was the problem of completing his task with immoral means. There is a lesson being taught in the story. I do not know if Shakespeare was intending on making this story into a lesson, but you can make it a lesson. The story teaches you to not use immoral means to get any sort of task done. It can cause many consequences for you. You can get things done without

Black History Month has been celebrated in one fashion or another since 1926. Carter G. Woodson is known as the founder of Black History Week which has grown to become a month long celebration. Typically we focus on the civic, athletic, and educational achievements of African Americans. Rarely do we focus on the commercial success of African American business owners in this country. In many instances, the accomplishments of our business pioneers required the same dedication and determination that was required to march or boycott unfair treatment. What fueled these business titans? They all had one thing in common. They had big dreams.

The simulation game, “The King’s M&M’s” is a good representation of how early American colonists reacted to the Sugar and Stamp Acts because it demonstrated the reactions of the colonists, the hate (not in real life) of the tax collectors, and how the King/Queen would get most of the wealth. The reaction of the colonists, obviously, are not good ones. They hated it, and would go into poverty, because the King/Queen could tax as much as they want. And that’s one reason sons of liberty would tar and feather soldiers and tax collectors. Some of my peers did not even have any M&M’s left. People also HATED tax collectors. In the simulations, they would take the M&M’s, and everyone would want to keep them. So, some people got

Remember the Titans is a film based on true events that took place in Alexandria, Virginia in 1971. Two groups of people were forced together by the desegregation of T.C Williams High School. Despite the indefinite integration of the black and white students, the town was still living in a racially divided society. African American football coach Herman Boone’s arrival to T.C Williams further complicated things. In an attempt to tranquilize the escalating racial tensions he was given the head coaching position in hopes to placate the African /American community.

The environment was far more competitive, which I noticed immediately. I was also beginning to understand the value of a team, a support system greater than oneself.
