...CMU 201: Introduction to Leadership Tanjie Hoover April 15, 2013 Search For a Leader Case Study: Gloria Steinem Gloria Steinem was born in 1934 in Michigan. She spent her childhood going back and forth between Michigan, Florida and California. After he parents divorced whenever she was 11, Steinem and her mother moved to a dilapidated home in Toledo, Ohio. Over the next few years, young Gloria was responsible for caring for her mentally ill mother. Whenever she finally left home to go to Smith College, she was determined to challenge the status quo and majored in government, an unusual choice for a woman of that era. She graduated in 1956 and was awarded a fellowship that took her to India, where she worked for the Independent Research Service as a freelance writer. Steinem’s first official act of feminism was in 1963 whenever she went undercover at the Playboy Club in New York City as a waitress. Her article, which was published in Show magazine, exposed the club’s mistreatment and overt desensitization of women. In the late 1960’s, Steinem was instrumental in the development of New York Magazine. It was there that she found her platform for political change. After she reported on an abortion hearing, she felt the need for more reform in this area of women’s rights. Over the years, she published many essays and articles about abortion and other women’s issues that were previously considered taboo, like domestic violence. Steinem went on to form Ms. Magazine...

...En 101 4 February 2015 Inner Relief Gloria Anzaldua uses words to describe how she felt just like many other people can relate to especially with discussing feelings of growing up. Anzaldua is an advocate and a realist. She was devastated, stuck between cultures and ancestries. She did not know which way to turn. She pushed forward and took action. Anzaldua describes herself, “As a Mestiza I have no country, my homeland cast me out, yet every country is mine because I am every woman’s sister or potential lover”(Anzaldua 102). In this depiction of who she is, she sees it as what it is. A common theme within Anzaldua is dialogue of being right or being happy. Acceptance is one thing that Anzaldua strives for, but cannot fully grasp. It is with this struggle Anzaldua constructs a new mestizo consciousness to deal with or combat such systemic marginalization. She sees the problems with society, culture, societal norms, and even herself. Chapter 7 in the beginning tries to focus on the, “struggle of flesh, a struggle of borders, and inner war”(Anzaldua 100). This is similar to the previous paragraphs quote of having no country. Alzaldua faces the dilemma of mix breed. Generations of her family are from Mexico, but now she is an American, where norms impressed upon her are much more radically different than of her ancestors. She is different from her family while also being different than the white American value system at that time. This is what the quote above is refereeing...

...Gloria Anzaldúa's Borderlands/La Frontera: The New Mestiza is a much so divided passage that attests the unpredictability of living in the psychic, social, and social territory some place in the middle of México and the United States. With Gloria Anzaldúa calling the United States/Mexico border "una herida abierta", an open wound, is actually justifiable. The agony and delight of the borderlands, maybe no more noteworthy or lesser than the feelings mixed by living anyplace contradictions proliferate, societies conflict and merge, and life is existed on an edge; which originate from a wound that won't mend but is perpetually recuperating. These grounds have dependably been here; the waterway of individuals has streamed for a considerable length...

...Gloria Jean's Coffees comes to India Gloria Jean's Coffees, a global coffee retailer, has tied up with integrated hospitality major Citymax India to launch coffee houses across the country. MUMBAI: Gloria Jean's Coffees, a global coffee retailer, has tied up with integrated hospitality major Citymax India to launch coffee houses across the country. The retailer operates around 770 outlets in over 30 countries, including 435 in Australia. Citymax India is part of Dubai-based global retail giant Landmark Group. Citymax India plans to invest around Rs 40 crore to open up to 90 Gloria Jean's Coffees houses in four years; it has set the target of 500 outlets in 10 years. The company will open its first outlet in Mumbai by February 2008; this will be followed by New Delhi in June 2008 and Bangalore later. India currently has about 1,200 coffee outlets and that number is set to increase to 2,500 in 4 years. The business done by them is expected to triple in 5 years. Given the high real-estate rental cost in India, Citymax expects to break even only in the fifth year, compared with the average global gestation period of 3 years for coffee chains. "The coffee business is not an easy business in India, especially because of high rentals. But with our international experience and expertise, we are committed towards bringing the ultimate coffee experience to the Indian consumer in the form, style and panache that it deserves," said Ravi Saxena, managing director, Citymax India...

...Madeline Steffey Intersectionality with Kimberle Crenshaw and Gloria Anzaldua Intersectionality can be described as the study of the intersection of different forms of discrimination experienced by individuals who are members of multiple minority groups. For example, a Hispanic woman faces barriers in society not only because she is Hispanic, but also because she is a woman and one could not fully understand her oppression without taking both of these aspects into consideration. Kimberly Crenshaw and Gloria Anzaldua both provide accounts of intersectionality and utilize different approaches in their explanations. I will begin by analyzing their approaches separately, then I will explain how Crenshaw might object to Anzaldua’s account because it does not contain adequate factual evidence or realistic solutions. As a response from Anzaldua to Crenshaw’s objections, I will assert that Anzaldua effectively used personal and cultural experiences to reflect on intersectionality. Throughout her life, Anzaldua felt like she lived within borders. That in order to live and survive, she had to cross borders continuously. This is because multiple aspects of her life typically result in societal discrimination. She is unique in that she is a minority in several ways such as being a mix of Mexican and Anglo-Saxon, as well as being a lesbian. These aspects overlap and intertwine, which results in intersectionality. When crossing borders, one has to adapt to the different norms that are...

...de la industria láctea es su alto nivel de concentración, siendo que la producción de leche y yogur de las tres principales empresas (Gloria, Nestlé y Laive) representa más del 90% del mercado. Al respecto, las compañías mencionadas presentan una integración vertical desde el acopio de la leche, canales de distribución bien desarrollados y un fuerte posicionamiento que funciona como barrera de entrada a nuevos competidores. De otro lado, las empresas más pequeñas son numerosas. Según la Asociación de Ganaderos Lecheros en el Perú existen más de 40 empresas productoras de derivados lácteos y se dedican a una sola actividad, o tan solo a importar y comercializar productos lácteos. Por otro lado, el consumo per cápita de leche se ha incrementado considerablemente en la última década, pasando de 45 a 60 Lt. anuales de acuerdo a la Asociación de Industriales Lácteos. Sin embargo, este es aún bajo si se compara con otros países de la región como Chile (130 lt.) y Colombia (140 lt.), siendo que lo mínimo recomendado por la Organización de las Naciones Unidas para la Agricultura y la Alimentación es de 20 lt. anuales.

...concept as one’s conscious experience of himself or herself. In the interview of Rogers and Gloria, Gloria sees herself as dishonest and inadequate. She feels that her sexual desires, as a women, makes her devilish and she feels that nobody will accept her if she shows her Real Self to them. Gloria has a certain picture of herself; the person she wants to be and even more importantly, the person she wants people to see her as. Rogers defines this phenomenon as the ideal self, the person the individual would most like to be. Gloria wants to gain the acceptance of her daughter and her father. This signals Gloria’s strong need for positive regard and even more importantly, her strong need for positive self-regard. She wants to feel loved and accepted for the person she really is, but is too afraid to show. Positive self-regard refers to the acceptance of one’s self for which you are, unconditional acceptance, without any doubt. For Gloria to gain positive self-regard, she needs to accept herself, even her “devilish” sexual desires and her fear of being unaccepted. In the interview Gloria shows incongruence. She projects her fear of not being accepted as a real life experience. She perceives certain situations as the truth and carries these feelings with her. Gloria feels that she needs to be a “sweet” woman, without desire, who is a perfect mother and daughter. Throughout the interview Gloria continuously refers to herself as “devilish” and that she rather be a sweet person. Her...

...Mary Erbeck Professor Joan Robinson ENG 102: Composition II March 21, 2015 Remember Our Power Feminist Gloria Steinem cofounded and became editor of Ms. Magazine to which she published her article “Wonder Woman.” In her article, Steinem wrote about Wonder Woman’s background and life along with the representation of women in comic books and how these different depictions can influence and inspire predominately younger audiences regardless of gender. Steinem’s style is focused mainly on logos to relay a clear image of Wonder Woman as a character and her impact on readers. She ultimately wanted to inform the reader of the importance of Wonder Woman’s effect on youth in a platform largely directed by the patriarchy and she made a compelling case with a strong, justified logos and clear ethos. Steinem first wrote about her youth as a comic book reader and how comic books were the easily accessible and cheap building blocks to her reading comprehension along with “cereal boxes and ketchup labels” (Steinem). She discussed the psychology behind the need for superheroes in children’s mindsets as a way to better cope with reality and express their individualism but with every superhero being a man young women, like Steinem, had to project their consciousness into male characters suppressing their womanhood to only being a damsel in distress. Steinem wrote that Wonder Woman “rescued” her at the age of seven from the “weak, bosomy, blonde heroines” (Steinem) with her strength, wisdom...
