The reason why many Americans refuse to take these jobs is that they are low paying and tedious. They would rather do minimal amounts of work for higher pay in the comfort of an office space rather than pick fruits, packaging food, or work at a steel mill.

I have worked under a few different administrators that were not genuine and always seemed to say exactly what you wanted to hear rather than telling the truth. This lack of authenticity eroded the system from the inside out and made it so that not one teacher sought out those administrators. We all felt the lack of follow through and the trust had vanished. Without being honest and sincere I feel that administrators lose the following of the staff and lose admiration from staff and students as well. I was drawn to what Evans stated when he claimed, “…leadership begins at one’s center” (144).
During the Progressive Era, most employers were not concerned with workers rights and focused more on profit than human rights or safety. The poor working class, as well as immigrants who had worked in the United States for a while, became infuriated over the unfair treatment and working conditions of which they suffered.

(Oster 66) In Case Study D due to the lack of motivation for staff the staff quite decreased over time. There were many positions to be filled in this organization that qualified individuals had to fulfill but the benefits were not up to part with what they could be making with other organizations, which brought this to be a concern for the human resource department and Silverman because they had to fulfill these positions in the American Red
One behavior that I truly appreciated and think is vital when leading is checking in with the members. It helped form a great support system within the trip and aided in my ability to be open and comfortable with the group. This directly relates to Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs, which I think is extremely important for a leader to remember for group development. Also, going along with the idea of recognizing needs, our leader was a great example of servant leadership. They were always looking out for the needs of others and being that guidance and aid.
After a brief discussion with my boss, I came to realize that I lacked some of the necessary skills. This conversation gave me a clear understanding of the value of education. Due to the shrinking employment options for those who only possess a
Firstly, Harold had a blurred vision of the overall effect, not a detailed plan which caused the effect of the that no one reorganized his vision and there was a precipitous drop in worker’s morale, understanding, and productivity. Thus, in my opinion, Harold was no effective change agent and social architect, this is because as a change agent Harold was supposed to illicit a transformation. Whereas, Harold could not be an example or be confident in his vision and dismissive with his mission. This was due to the fact that Harold could not influence his workers to follow his method.

I wanted to be better than everyone else in everything and I thought that I was. However, I didn't realize till now of what I was doing was not only ethnocentrism but I was being selfish and a jerk. I could have reacted by thinking before speaking and realizing what I was doing, apologizing to the ones who I offended.
As I began to prove myself within the division and making up for my mistake it was also met with jealousy from my peers. I was told by my peers that “only reason I was put in charge or got the added responsibility was because of Senior Chief”. It wasn’t always easy being put into leadership positions especially when I was still fairly new and had been in trouble no so long ago. I knew that as long as I stayed focused and did my job well in time I would earn the respect of my peers. My supervisors saw the hard work I would put in everyday, would not hear me complain of how bad the job was at times, and I was never late.
Because the employees ' roles were not identified appropriately, individuals were not able to have the level of access they should have. Which wasted lots of time, affected our customer services, production and several deadlines. Once accessing issue was resolved, some of the functionality were not available because of it was not requested during the configuration process. Addition financial investment was made to add the most important functions and few others were not. Two of the latest function and upgrades that we paid for that we also pay yearly licensing and update fees, we have not still utilized the functions because of the incompatibility of our server.
The year of 1932 was rough for the unemployed people of America and relief was struggling within the states, so the federal government and other were begged to help put an end to the problem and pull the country out of the recession.

Furthermore, some of the reasons for the organization’s ethical dilemmas were due to short staffing, facilities not being prepared for disasters, and not being transparent with its stakeholders. Another key reason for the organization’s ethical dilemma was that it had not updated its code of conduct to address today’s leadership and employees. Additionally, the ARC had problems handling large sums of money from donations due its use of outdated technology, and there were several executives who were considered overpaid which created a negative image to stakeholders. “Executive compensation is a controversial subject, and it is rarely far from the media’s gaze.
