Introduction Education denotes the practice of enhancing learning or the acquisition of proficiencies, knowledge, beliefs, morals, and behavior (Dewey 34-36). With respect to a school setting, success in education has to focus on the rights of the learners to survival, safety, development, and involvement while engaging all the stakeholders and creating a favorable environment. Therefore, a successful education could be defined as a learning process that reinforces the abilities of learners and imparts pertinent knowledge, practical skills, and suitable behavior while creating and assisting students in generating a safe, secure, and healthy environment. In the current society, successful education is vitally important for skill improvement, which facilitates social as well as economic functioning. Besides affecting the attitudes of learners, a successful education allows individuals to acquire knowledge, skills, and competencies that they require for effective operation. It is widely agreed that success in education can only take place in an ideal environment, incorporates effective programs, upholds the well-being of learners, and uses supportive teaching practices for quality learning. Favorable Environment For a successful education process, an ideal environment is crucial and constitutes distinctive physical, social, and economic features; they need to be splendid in order for both instructors and students to benefit optimally from the process of learning. As a sphere of knowledge, the study of the importance of school environment on student performance dates back to the twentieth century since, as early as 1908 researchers had already begun acknowledging its significance (Dewey 34-36). This underscores that an ideal environment plays an instrumental role in supporting the education system and student development. As it has been revealed continually in research, an ideal school environment plays a key role in determining and strengthening students’ abilities. A favorable school environment consists of four spheres of performance that encompass physical security, connections of all stakeholders such as educators, students, and parents, quality learning techniques, and positive social and psychological aspects. A favorable school environment has been established to promote commitment to learning and constructive feedback from instructors, which in turn influences learners’ self-confidence and achievement (Bosworth and Judkins 300-304). Fundamentally, a constructive and sustainable school environment contributes significantly to the development of positive behaviors; these are elemental for contributive, productive, and satisfying learning. Besides improving behavior, it promotes an assumption of positive self-concept and the development of high aspirations of students. An ideal school atmosphere has expectations, values, and norms that ensure persons within the learning institution feel physical, socially, and emotionally fit. The instructors, students, and parents engage in the learning process and cooperate to achieve the set goals. The
Introduction Bias is closely linked with the process of drawing conclusions based on an intuitive approach rather than analytic methods. Some sources state that bias may be represented by perception errors that occur due to human thinking limitations or irrelevant thinking models (Hammond et al., 2021). Naturally, bias is a subconscious instrument that is meant to utilize collected experience in order to avoid danger and prevent harm. Nonetheless, people learn not only from personal experience but also from controversial information that might be received from culture, the media, and other people. Moreover, people may tend to form attitudes towards general based on specific, which may also cause bias. According to some sources, bias may be divided into two categories, including implicit bias and explicit bias (Hammond et al., 2021). By definition, implicit bias is a set of unconscious beliefs and perceptions. As an individual may not be aware of implicit personal biases, it may be particularly hard to reduce them. By contrast, explicit biases occur on a conscious level, and hence fewer efforts may be required to identify and reduce them. Influence of Biases on Executive Performance As already mentioned, bias may serve as a helpful tool that systemizes and implements knowledge and experience regardless of the field of expertise. However, errors may occur due to inadequate analysis of past experiences or even as a result of false memories. Such errors may form an inappropriate bias, which may have an adverse impact on professional performance. As my selected specialty track is executive nursing, bias may significantly influence outcomes. Recent studies have shown that bias may form diverse behavior models and unequal treatment based on such factors as race, gender, age, or ethnicity (White et al., 2017). In addition, executive nursing involves management and particularly human resource management. Therefore, implicit bias in executive nursing may cause insufficient attention to professionalism, experience, and competence of employees. It may also lead to inadequate treatment of patients, worsening outcomes, and even causing discrimination. Personal Biases In most cases, my personal biases are implicit and based on common stereotypes regarding certain social groups. Even though I try to minimize the adverse effects of unfounded bias, it may not always be possible. For instance, I have an explicit bias towards older people. I also may not always treat with sufficient respect traditions and beliefs, which are unfamiliar and hence hard to understand for me. Another possible bias may be represented by frequently jumping to conclusions based on my perception of weight and the overall fitness of the patient regardless of the background. Implicit Bias In some
Decision Support (DS) is a term that is frequently applied in a number of contexts which are associated with decision making. For instance, it is usually mentioned in relation to Data Warehouses as well as On-Line Analytical Processing (Watson, 1998). It has also been established that Data support is closely associated with Data Mining. Data mining entails analysis of data obtained from different perspectives then the same is summarized to obtain useful information which the businesses can use in cost cutting or increasing their revenue. Decision Support appears to be both simple and spontaneous in nature. In fact it is always loosely defined. It should be noted that to different people, the term implies to different things and also in diverse contexts. In the recent times, the term is mainly linked to Data Warehouses as well as On Line Analytical Processing. However, ten years ago, the term was linked to Decision Support Systems (DSS). Before then, it was closely connected to Decision Analysis (DA) as well as Operations Research (OR). This has brought about a lot of misunderstanding and confusion, thereby bringing about the need for clarification. Decision support system (DSS) may be defined as an information system which supports decision making within organizations and businesses. It should be noted that for a system to qualify to be called a Decision support system, it has to be computer based. This kind of system has been proved to be of great benefits to the various departments of organizations including the planning department as well as the operations departments since it helps in coming up with rapidly changing decisions (Eta, 2007). It should be noted that DS also incorporate knowledge based system. A Decision Support System which is properly designed will aid decision makers to gather vital information from numerous documents, raw data, personal knowledge, as well as business models so as to not only identify but also to provide solution to problems and also to come up with decisions. A number of information may be gathered by decision support. These include records of information resources, relative sales information between two or more periods, as well as the anticipated revenue figures (Sprague and Watson, 1993). The term “Knowledge worker” is used to refer to the workers who are involved in decision making as well as analysis of information within the organization or business. In a number of instances, it is applied in the broader perspective of knowledge management (Yoram and Adi, 2005). Decision support system (DSS) supports decision making within organizations and businesses. Therefore, Decision Support System is of great use to the knowledge workers as it will help facilitate the decision making process. In addition, Decision support
In his text entitled “The Entitlement Theory”, the philosopher Robert Nozick speculates on a truly just economic structure in the ideal form of the state. Nozick focuses on the issue of property, its transfer and ratification, offering a model for claiming just entitlement (Vaughn, 2019). Real justice, according to Nozick, consists in the appropriation of holdings or their original acquisition, their fair and consensual transfer and the protection of the right to their property. According to the principle of fair acquisition, people can take possession of property if they do not take it from others and do not worsen the situation of others in the process. The principle of fair transfer implies the right to donate property or voluntarily exchange it. Nozick imagines a world in which free exchange will abolish the existence of a value-currency intermediary – that is, the needs of people will be perceived as primary in the exchange of goods. The principle of ratification implies that a person who has unfairly taken possession of a holding is obliged to return it to the owner. According to Nozick, no one except the owners mentioned in the first two principles has the right to property. The author finds a fair transfer of property only in those cases when the property was originally acquired fairly and all subsequent stages in its transfer are the same. The author calls this principle of fair distribution historical, in which it is through the circumstances or actions of acquisition that one can judge the fairness of the possession of a thing. Borrowing from John Locke’s principle of the self-property of people, Nozick says that people represent a set of talents that belong to them. Combining these talents with the surrounding world, they can encroach on the acquisition of part of this world by agreement, that is, to acquire property. Reference Vaughn, L. (2019).

The fluctuating market often demands changes in a company, so that it stays successful. IBM is a world known organization that has seen rough times but managed to adjust to the world and the economy. Some changes took place several years ago but the major one was accomplished through innovation and is rather recent. The general adjustments that took place were a more environment oriented approach that led to lowering costs, increasing the role of stakeholders and a more customer oriented work technique. The CEOs have also changed some of the management that would provide a shift from hardware to software focus. The technologies were upgraded that made work more efficient and much faster. A great part of the need to change came with the culture and the public demands. The new technology that gets improved very often dictates how the company will work within its own culture, as well as with the public. IBM is a worldwide company and sometimes it is difficult to keep track of all locations. One of the strategic advances that were made is related to changing the consulting practice and connection between locations. The major focus has turned to people and interaction with the public. As customers will often return to the same organization if the products and services are reliable and of high quality, it was wise for IBM to pay special attention to how the business is conducted. The international success has proved that people are expecting great service and IBM recognized this by increasing the number of employees responsible for customer relations. “With nearly 3,500 strategy professionals worldwide, the IBM strategy and change practice is part of IBM Global Business Services” and this increases the quality of services accordingly (Organizational Change Strategy). As there is a lot of competition in the modern world, the changes that IBM makes have to be quick. While the adjustment of production has lowered costs and heightened quality, as well as making it more environment friendly, the changes to the services and workforce greatly added to the company’s success Sometimes the company that adjusts to the economy or fluctuating market must let some of its employees go but IBM chose a strategy that increased the amount of workers worldwide and it positively reflected on the organization. It is a wise strategy to improve both products and services because this means that with higher quality of merchandise people will also receive great services. Comparing to other companies IBM has rooted out all competitors because the size of the organization, the amount of locatio
Introduction Macroeconomic activities influences on different areas of the economy. The paper evaluates the way in which different activities taking place in the economy affects businesses, households and government dealings. Decrease in Taxes Decrease in taxes increases the disposable income for households. This is because decreased taxes make households to hold more money. The disposable income then drives the consumer demand (Herendeen, 2008). The increased consumer demand increases consumer spending, which makes businesses to increase sales. Decreased taxes reduce government revenue because the amounts received from taxes decreases (Herendeen, 2008). This makes the government to increase production (GDP) for the economy. The increased production reduces unemployment levels as well as boosting the sluggish economy (Herendeen, 2008). A decrease in tax rate benefits businesses through the increase in net profits after tax. Due to the increased profits, businesses may direct the excess profits towards the growth of operations and production. The improvement in production creates positive impacts on the economy by allowing the government to access additional resources for making investments (Herendeen, 2008). Massive Layoffs Employees’ amount to spend reduces in the event that they lose jobs. Unemployed individuals end up reducing spending on luxury goods. In cases where they remain unemployed for long, they abandon some basic needs (Walden & Thoms, 2007). Large-scale reductions in consumer spending may adversely affect businesses. This happens when businesses become unable to make adequate sales. In addition, businesses that largely rely on luxury spending are negatively affected (Walden & Thoms, 2007). Reduced functioning of businesses leads to more layoffs in the economy because businesses are unable to realize adequate wealth and profits to maintain a stable income for workers (Walden & Thoms, 2007). Massive layoffs affect the government through reduced flow and distribution of resources. This ultimately leads to economic depression. The depression makes it difficult for the government to deliver its services to both the households and businesses (Walden & Thoms, 2007). Purchase of Groceries A number of factors usually influence purchasing activities in the economic system. This is because most of the products found in the grocery store might have originated from other nations. For instance, some goods such as bananas and avocados come from Brazil and Mexico respectively. Countries have comparative advantage, which makes it possible for them to engage in international trade (Walden & Thoms, 2007). Such advantages make it possible for nations to import groceries from other regions. When households purchase groceries, they create demand for the products. In addition, household needs for grocery is satisfied. Business sales increase when households purchase groceries. Thus, purchase of groceries improves the functioning of businesses (Walden & Thoms, 2007). The purchase of groceries also affects the government in a number of ways. The government will generate revenue from the
Background The IT sector boasts of few women compared to their male counterparts. This is mainly due to the fact that women spend a lot of time taking care of the family. Also, lack of work flexibility has made it hard for women to engage in the IT sector. Other than the problems experienced by the women as they juggle between career and home keeping, the IT sector is largely dominated by men. Despite advances in technology, the digital divide between men and women has continued to increase. In both the UK and the U.S, women who join the IT profession are not only a few, but the concern has been that they are leaving the IT sector and following a different career direction altogether. The major concern has been the imbalance being experienced in the IT sector and whether the situation can be reversed. According to Matwyshyn (2003), the disparity between men and women in the IT sector has reduced and the number of women taking undergraduate degrees in IT is less compared to men. Research statement There is a disparity between men and women in the information technology sector despite the advanced technology in the 21 st century. Research purpose statement and problem The research study aims to determine the cause of disparity in the IT sector and the policies that can be incorporated to ensure that women are presented well in the IT sector. By applying the research purpose statement, it will be possible to answer the following research questions: Why is there gender disparity in information technology? Can the current situation be reversed and in what ways can this be realized? This would enable the realization of the objectives of the research study. Null Hypothesis There is less than or a third (33.3%) of women in the IT industry in the United States. Alternative Hypothesis There are more than 66.6%% of men in the IT sector compared to women. Therefore, the null and the alternative hypotheses would be: H 0 will be 33.3% or less than women in IT and H 1 will be more than 66.6% men in IT H 0 : p <_ 0.333 (33.3% or less) H 1 : P> 66.6% Si
Having a qualified and skillful leader is essential in any job, and nursing is not an exception. Being a leader in a healthcare sphere is a crucial role on which healthcare quality services and patient safety depend. Leaders are responsible for making choices and decisions, which can affect people’s lives, as well as the staff’s performance. Recognizing a nurse as a leader involves a few skills:   * Teamwork, which refers to connecting with other healthcare providers and departments in order to ensure the best treatment is used.   * Problem-solving, which involves being informed, educated, and being able to use different approaches according to a particular situation.   * Taking responsibility, meaning being able to stand up for one’s point and be unafraid of challenges.   * Delegating responsibilities to ensure the patients’ needs are met and all the workers are working their best.   * Continuous learning implies always seeking improvement opportunities and possessing the most actual knowledge and skills in the nursing practice. All the aforementioned qualities of a nurse will help her become a successful leader and be able to provide both the right working conditions for other staff and the best opportunities for patient safety. The NOF Nursing Core Competencies are based around nursing knowledge. The competencies include Patient-Centered Care, Leadership, Communication, Professionalism, Systems-Based Practice, Teamwork and Collaboration, Informatics and Technology, Safety, Quality Improvement, and Evidence-Based Practice (Massachusetts Nurse of the Future Nursing Core Competencies). All these competencies are equally important because they all together contribute to a nurse being qualified and skilled enough in order to ensure good service quality and patient safety. Personally, I believe these competencies to be the most basic and essential ones to become a professional. All of them are connected to the working process and can directly benefit it. As for me, I believe safety and quality improvement will be the most significant in my practice. Safety is the top priority of any medical worker, and it will be impossible to do my job without being absolutely sure that I provide safe treatment in safe conditions. Also, I believe there is constant advancement in all spheres of our life, and we need to be aware of all the recent changes. By doing so, I will be able to provide the best and most effective services. Works Cited “ Massachusetts Nurse of the Future Nursing Core Competencies. ” Web.
Military leadership is based on traditional leadership patterns and the unique nature of the military environment. Many qualities combine to make a military leader successful. Among the most important are professional knowledge, decision, courage, humanity, and equity. The main elements in military leadership being used by senior staff are consideration, delegation, loyalty, selflessness, and character. Most of the senior military leaders monitor the group’s progress against norms and objectives; get back to basics and keep the team on track. The designated military leader accepts responsibility as a leader but does not dominate the staff. As the activity of the group is observed, it is clear that leadership shifts from time to time, depending on the circumstances. The issue is not who controls, but how to get the job done. In military leadership, this includes not only the development of effective self-management skills: transforming; integrating, and mobilizing. To provide a broader perspective to military leadership and the lead role, and to provide a link between the key leadership functions of transforming, integrating, and mobilizing and the nature of work itself, a hierarchy of activity. Such organization development is also, in part, a consequence of an appropriately effective leadership style , whereby the leader will frequently be operating in the realms of high emotional intelligence and, in his or her interaction and communication with others. If a leader is less than competent and effective in any one of the core functions of transforming, integrating, and mobilizing – or is operating and communicating at inappropriate levels, then the results will be apparent in the development, or otherwise, of the organization, its culture and especially its day-to-day operational ‘climate’. The main qualities and tools I would incorporate in my leadership style are self-confidence and personal image. Developing, sharing, and communicating visions – as aspirational pictures of an organization’s desired future shape – are seen as key functions of the leader’s role. Moreover, they are also presented in this chapter as significant aspects of the context in which coaching and development need to take place. I would create a unique leadership style based upon personal authenticity, which emerges, once again, as a major determinant of both people’s fulfillment – and corporate success. Against this, an understanding of the differences between ‘work’ and ‘nonwork’ behavior and a developing ability to look for and recognize the latter, especially, help to give a milita
