Among the Main Functions of Society, social scientists agree that the following 10 best describe the whys of how we function within our global worldview:
1. Satisfaction of basic needs
It is the primary function of society to organize people and their actions in such a way that they are guaranteed food, shelter, and vital protection. Included here are public health concerns that, although usually falls on the State, is a primary necessity of the organized people – ensure sanitation to prevent the spread of disease and medical care should it be required.
2. Preservation of order
Is the function that involves the different security bodies, formal and informal, created to protect the lives and assets of individuals. These groups become social institutions because their role is to meet the fundamental needs of people. The preservation of order also refers to the rules, norms, or laws that guide the behavior of people in the different stages and situations of their life from birth to death. Some scholars have proposed that this is the main function of an individual in society, "to control their wild and irrational impulses."
3. Management of education
Within society, individuals develop the knowledge necessary to interact with their peers. They are also taught to make the most of their abilities, talents, and interests. Living in society allows the human being to be social by nature, to discover and develop his own personality by putting it into action in front of another human being. From within these social parameters, and to extend our means of cultural diversity, society should provide the conditions necessary for each individual to have the opportunity to learn from the language, history, and traditions of diverse cultures. Education, in this manner, serves to enhance both internal and external socially progressive channels of knowledge.
4. Management of the economy
The distribution of goods and services is another concern within a social group. Society, as a system, generates and distributes the material goods and services that will be dedicated to satisfying the basic and secondary needs of the human beings that comprise it. This distribution is determined according to the social and political philosophy that a specific society assumes as its own.
5. Power management
Just as the distribution of goods and services is a crucial concern within society, the shaping of figures and/or power groups also occupies much of society's life. The administration of power from the institutions is what has led the human being to face wars and disputes throughout its history. Depending on the socio-political doctrine that prevails in a particular social group, that power will be centralized in the State or distributed among the different institutions that make up that group.

describe the whys of how we function within our global worldview:

are guaranteed food, shelter, and vital protection. Included here are public health concerns that,

from the institutions is what has led the human being to face wars and disputes throughout its
history. Depending on the socio-political doctrine that prevails in a particular social group, that
power will be centralized in the State or distributed among the different institutions that make up
that group.
2. 6. Division of labor
The organization of society allows for a definition of the roles in the work that each individual
will fulfill given the needs to be met. Raising constructions, providing security and food,
educating, establishing communication channels, developing technologies are all tasks that
involve the conjunction of different roles, and the application of different levels of strength and
intelligence. Living in society makes clear these realities and guides people towards the
distribution of the workforce that allows all tasks are fulfilled to provide well-being to
individuals.
7. Communication management
For the human being, it is an inherent need to express and communicate, so in society, the
conditions are created for this need to be fulfilled. This includes language to communication
channels between different members of the social group, as well as between these and other
social groups. If oral or artistic expressions such as dance or paintings were the most used
forms of communication in primitive societies, today these are the technologies of
communication and information (ICTs), which facilitate this task. Members of a society are
concerned with using the communication tools that are available, and developing increasingly
sophisticated ones, in order to ensure the continuity of the culture of that group in the next
generations.
8. Preservation and transmission of culture
Each society develops common forms of behavior that are transmitted between its members and
the following generations. This is a necessary function for the distinction of social groups and
for the preservation of diversity. Culture is influenced by the conditions or characteristics that
surround social groups, whether geographic, historical, economic, religious, or political.
9. Leisure
The way individuals have fun within a society is also something that must be taken into
consideration since it is essential that human beings also require moments of recreation. Living
in society facilitates the necessary infrastructure and technology so that people can take
advantage of their free time as they choose.
10. Religiosity
The human being throughout its history and regardless of its location has manifested the
imperative need to experience their religiosity – the expression of a relationship with
transcendence and the divine. Humans seem to have the need to believe that there is something
superior to them, and the origin of all that exists. Based on this need, different answers have been
elaborated, which then materialize in different religious expressions. To live in society allows
sharing with others the experience of religion and communion with other entities that seemingly
give meaning to life. Religiousness also functions as a social atomizer, as a form of
3. organization in which very specific rules, codes, and forms of communication of the believers
are developed in the same dogma.

Research Paper: Personal Philosophy of Leadership Assignment Instructions
Overview
Many organizations publicly define who they are through their vision, mission, and values
statements. You can do the same as individuals. This exercise is very similar to organizational
vision, mission, and values statement writing; there are slight modifications from the
organizational format with respect to length, focus, and purpose. Keep in mind, this exercise is
very introspective. It can be very challenging if taken seriously, and it can change your life. You
are to write a Personal Philosophy of Leadership through your construction of a personal vision,
mission, and values statement. You may wish to review the grading rubric prior to starting.
Instructions
· Vision Statement—the vision statement is a statement of what is possible; it is a picture of
the future. Write a statement on what is possible for you and what the picture of the future is for
8. you. This may be 1 paragraph (5–6 sentences) and up to a page. This is not an organizational
vision statement. It is a personal vision statement; there are differences.
· Mission Statement—the mission statement answers the vision. If your vision statement is to
be or to do XYZ (what is possible), your mission statement is that you accomplish your vision by
ABC (your reflections, thoughts, and method). This is a little different than the short corporate
mission statements. This mission statement is a philosophy or creed that focuses on your
character, your contributions or achievements, and on the values or principles upon which your
attitudes are based. You may call it your Personal Constitution . You must answer the following:
What is my purpose in life? What really counts? What do I want to accomplish in life? What
legacy would you like to leave? You must also weave into this statement what type of leader you
want to be, what your purpose is as a leader, and what legacy you would like to leave as a leader.
To earn the greatest amount of points, the inclusion of a Christian worldview in this assignment
is strongly encouraged; you should be praying and seeking God’s guidance in this exercise.
Write a statement that includes all of the above material. This must be well thought out. This is
not an “hour before it is due― exercise; that will be obvious. This statement is expected to
be a minimum of 3–4 pages in length. This is not an organizational mission statement. It is a
personal mission statement; there are differences.
· Values Statement—in bullet form, list 5–10 values that are most important to you by
which you would want others to define you. This is not an organizational values statement. It is
a personal values statement; there are differences.
· References—this paper must be at least 5 pages and include a minimum of 5–7 references
to ground your thoughts. Use proper, current APA formatting for in-text citations and for the
final reference page. Acceptable sources include the course textbooks, scholarly articles
published within the last five years from Jerry Falwell’s Library.
Note: Your assignment will be checked for originality via the Turnitin plagiarism tool.
What is my purpose in life? My purpose in life is to be a blessing to others, whether it is with
knowledge, listening ear, open doors with resources or providing sheltering for those who are not
able.
What really counts? On a personal level what really count to me is integrity, respect, honesty,
being authentic. Loving yourself and being respectful to others no matter what title they hold.
What do I want to accomplish in life? What I would like to accomplish is to open my own drug
rehabilitation facility, own my own natural hair care line, own multiple properties, as well
becoming a criminal defense attorney.
What legacy would you like to leave?
The legacy I would like to leave behind is a over flow of wealth, many business ventures, from
hair care, products , multiple residential locations as well as drug treatment programs.
9. You must also weave into this statement what type of leader you want to be, what your purpose
is as a leader, and what legacy you would like to leave as a leader.
I WOULD LIKE TO BE A LEADER WHO IS HONEST, SHOWS RESPECT, FAIRNESS,
COMPASSION AND KINDNESS. I WOULD ALSO LIKE TO BE THE TYPE OF LEADER
WHO PUSHES AND MOTIVATES OTHER TO WANT BECOME A LEADER AND NOT
HENDER THEM OR TRY AND KEEP THEM BENEATH ME, SO IN OTHER NEWS GIVE
OTHERS ROOM TO GROW.
MY PURPOSE AS A LEADER WOULD BE INTEGRITY, SPIRITUALITY, LOYALTY,
WISDOM, PEACE, GRATITUDE AND GENEROSITY.
THE LEGCY I WOULD LIKE TO LEAVE AS A LEADER WOULD BE TO HAVE
MULTIPLE DRUG REHABILITATION FACILITIES FOR WOMEN AND MEN WHO
SUFFERS FROM SUBSTANCE AND ALCOHOL MISUSE. I COME FROM A FAMILY
THAT HAS A GENERATIONAL CURSE DEALING WITH SUBSTANCE. AND IT PLAYS
A MAJOR ROLE IN MY LIFE UNFORTUNATELY STILL TO THIS DAY AND I WANT TO
BE THE ONE WHO BREAK THAT GENERATIONAL CURSE.
