These articles give a concept into the methods to effect or utilize a particular description of successful management. However the conception of an effective leader is biased, which makes it challenging to visibly describe what characteristics and qualities cause somebody to be an effective administrator or leader. There is also not any unanimity concluded as to which traits are largely significant for those in chief positions such as leaders and administrators to have. Although some view character traits like self-confidence and inspiration, others contemplate natural traits like individuals size to be more important.

...Ethical Leadership •What are the components of a comprehensive framework for ethical decision making in business? Ethical Issue Intensity Business Ethics Ethical or Individual Factors Evaluations and Unethical Organizational factors Intentions Behavior Opportunity Ethical-Issue Intensity The first step in ethical decision making is to recognize that an ethical issue requires an individual or work group to choose among several actions that various stakeholders inside or outside the firm will ultimately evaluate as right or wrong. The intensity of an ethical issue relates to its perceived importance to the decision maker. Ethical issue intensity, then, can be defined as the relevance or importance of an ethical issue in the eyes of the individual, work group, and/or organization. It is personal and temporal in character to accommodate values, beliefs, needs, perceptions, the special characteristics of the situation, and the personal pressures prevailing at a particular place and time. Senior employees and those with administrative authority contribute significantly to intensity because they typically dictate an organization’s stance on ethical issues. In fact, under current law, managers can be held liable for the unethical and illegal Moral intensity relates to a person’s perception...

...classroom in relation to the diverse perspectives of participants in this case Problem What are the good basis and underpinnings in order to effectively evaluate a teacher’s instructional management strategy in the classroom? Areas of Consideration Classroom management is vital to achieving positive educational outcomes. Organization and behavior management in the classroom provide students with structure, which promotes learning. On the other hand, evaluating teacher classroom performance is an integral part of school supervision and contributes to the on-going mission of the educational institution. Teacher evaluations, when properly facilitated, function as professional measurement that encourage excellence, offer praise for good methodologies and strategies, and highlight areas that need upgrading. If conducted properly, teachers should view evaluations as necessary addition to daily instructional routine with an end result focused on collaborative means to teach more effectively. In this case, an evaluator questions a classroom teacher’s instructional management strategies when she applies for a permanent teaching credential. This issue reveals the underpinnings of tensions between the teacher and the evaluator in this case, noting conflicts that expose the helplessness of a new teacher, who is experiencing isolation in her early years of teaching. The key issues here are the teaching strategies, relationship with students and colleagues, new teacher support and...

Critical Thinking is clear reasonable thinking and it is a part of everyday life and living. It’s a skill that will never go out of style. It frees us from nonsense and self-deception. Being a critical thinker can go beyond such self-justifying statements. Acquiring the ability is a major goal you should have. It informs reading, writing, speaking, and listening. Within having the critical thinking ability or skill you should know there are six levels of thinking: Remembering, Understanding, Applying, Analyzing, Evaluating, and Creating, which are always useful. These levels will bring you to know the two types of thinking. Convergent and Divergent. Convergent involves narrowing down the process. Divergent is the opening up process. Ethics, the branch of philosophy that involves systematizing, defending, and recommending concepts of right and wrong conduct in an area of study that’s deals with and is based on ideas about what is good and bad behavior, or what is right and what is wrong.

...CASE STUDY # 1 & # 2 Chapter 4 – Risk Management In the 1970s, corporate and political campaign finance corruption was running rampant. The United State Securities and the Exchange commission and the United States Congress together ratified campaign finance law reforms and the 1977 Foreign Corrupt Practices Act. These two laws made it a criminal offense for any corporations or persons to be involved in global bribery and required all companies to implement internal control systems. In 1985, in response to these reforms 5 major private sector accounting associations together created The Committee Of Sponsoring Organizations, also referred to as COSO, to help sponsor the National Commission on Fraudulent Financial Reporting (Treadway Commission). The 5 associations included the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, American Accounting Association, Financial Executives International, Institute of Internal Auditors and the Institute of Management Accountants. The original chairman of COSO was James Treadway, which led to it being referred to as the Treadway Commission. This association was formed to inspect, analyze and make recommendations of fraudulent corporate financial reporting. Today this association is dedicated to providing thought leadership through the development of frameworks and guidance on enterprise risk management, internal control and fraud deterrence. COSO offers 5 key components to the Internal Control Framework: Control Environment, Risk...
