Key Term: Robert Greenleaf (Servant Leadership)
Definition
“Greenleaf, was CEO of AT&T [over 30] years ago, lecturer and teacher at Harvard and MIT, and author of
Servant Leadership
” (Gebhart, 1995)
Summary
Robert Greenleaf is best thought of as a revolutionary thinker in terms of how to lead others in both business and the community. “The emphasis in servant leadership theory is on leaders whose primary aim is to serve their followers while developing employees to their fullest potential in different areas such as task effectiveness, community stewardship, self-motivation, and also the development of their leadership capabilities.” (Dierendonck & Patterson, 2015, p. 119)
In today’s workplace, Greenleaf is often quoted and the inspiration for leading people in a way that brings about positive results. Greenleaf’s theory was relatively unproved until years later by a few scholars. These scholars conducted several studies to determine the true results of the relationship of servant-leaders and their direct reports in the workplace.
Discussion
In 1977, Greenleaf published a theory about how extraordinary leaders develop the desire to serve others before themselves. This trait in and of itself is what is called Servant Leadership. Servant-leaders do all that they can to provide the highest need of those they are leading before fulfilling their own needs. This theory of leadership is not a short-term solution for problems in the company. Servant leadership has been described “as including an altruistic calling, which is the motivation of leaders to put others’ needs and interests ahead of their own, and organizational stewardship, which is orienting others toward benefiting and serving the community.” (Dierendonck & Patterson, 2015, p. 119) Greenleaf has stressed the need to genuinely show concern for other people, businesses and communities altogether.
There is a “deep connection between servant leadership and compassionate love with the outgrowths of humility, gratitude, forgiveness and .

Post #1
Robert Greenleaf (2008) has so many amazing incites that are practical. The foundation to his inspiration is to lead by example, merging finding a mindful direction and skills for redirecting group behaviors. I have been introduced to leaders whom believe they are applying fabulous leadership skills, however reality is that they do not listen or are they aware of their surroundings. The emotional needs of staff are completely overlooked as well as viewed like a checklist of strategic applications with zero applications. I have observed this multiple times within my office of engineers and architects contributing to protocols, facts and procedures. Greenleaf incorporates the need to set self aside, including egos to reflect history, empathy, optimum, listening and utilizing sensible language. According to Frick (2004) history indicates the importance of service to develop social values of connection and community in which leaders need to identify and relate in their roles.
As it was mentioned, the mindset and behaviors in which leaders need to perform for others to follow takes humility and humbleness, wish can be considered a weakness or wisdom depending on self and cultural. I have found that some individuals in leadership roles believe they know the formulas; however, every equation will have variables that alters the perspective, changing the order of operations in result the solution and answer. The ability to honor the variables will determine the wisdom of the leader; in return will formulate the skills of serving. This is a very difficult concept for many leaders to embrace and apply. For some, it is common since, but one may need to listen to understand the variable is them.

Why isn’t Servant Leadership a theory or formula for leadership success but a mindset – a way of being as a leader.
Servant leadership needs to come from a core set of beliefs or faith. One must be transformed from within for this to be a true experience. This is not a theory of leadership that you can fake it until you make it. It is a philosophy or way of life. Even for leaders in a spiritual environment such as a church or a temple, this is not a given. A life of servant leadership is sacrificial. This is not easily accomplished if it does not come from an authentic place. One will only be able to demonstrate the traits and characteristics of a servant leader for a finite time if it is not originating from a true spirit of and core of humility. While servant leadership is a known leadership style and may be widely studied, it is not widely seen because it must come from a unique leader. As someone who has been behind the scenes in church leadership for decades, in a place where most wo.

Re: Transactional Leadership
Definition:
According to Organizational Management & Leadership: A Christian Perspective the definition of transactional leaders is “Transactional leaders lead by understanding the underlying principles of management and then applying those principles in the workplace; a transactional leader will guide followers to achieve organizational goals. Transactional leaders guide and motivate their followers in the direction of establish goals by clarifying roles and task requirements.”
Satterlee, A. (2013). Organizational Management & Leadership: A Christian Perspective. Raleigh, NC: Synergistics International.
Summary:
Dr. Rabindra Kanungo is currently part of the Faculty of Management at McGill University in Montreal, Quebec. He has been published numerous times and is involved with many research projects concerning work attitudes, work motivation and alienation, and leadership. Dr. Kanungo’s article Ethical Values of Transactional and Transformational Leader’s explores the ethics base for both types of leadership. According to Dr. Kanungo, there is already research that suggests that transformational leadership is based on moral foundation, but he suggests that transactional leadership is based on its own moral foundation from a different perspective. He explains that transactional and transformational leadership can be divided into two different types of moral perspectives: teleological and deontological. The teleological perspective of transactional leadership is more idiocentric or self-centric. It is based more on situational ethics and the ends justifying the means. Transformational leadership has a more deontological perspective which is allocentric or socio-centric. This type of leadership cares about the people involved and is based more on principle based ethics. Dr. Kanungo details how each type of leadership can be viewed as moral from the different perspectives. Transactional leadership act can be viewed as moral if both parties in a contract benefit or a majority benefits. Transformational leadership act would be considered moral if the intentions are altruistic.

Write a 3–5-page essay analyzing from a sociological perspective a chosen diversity issue covered in the media.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
SHOW LESS
Competency 1: Describe theoretical ideas of power in relation to policy.
Discuss how minority and dominant groups are portrayed in a media piece in relation to the influence of power.
Discuss sociological concepts or theories appropriate for understanding the portrayal of diversity in the media.
Competency 2: Identify historical and contemporary influences of discrimination in U. S. culture.
Summarize a media piece using the sociological perspective on diversity.
Competency 3: Analyze the effects of social policy using aggregated data.
Analyze data that are appropriate for supporting or refuting the central tenets of media piece.
Competency 6: Apply in text the standard writing conventions for the discipline, including structure, voice, person, tone, and citation formatting.
Write coherently to support a central idea in appropriate format and with few errors of grammar, usage, and mechanics.
How are different social groups portrayed in the mass media in contemporary society? How far have we come in terms of reducing or eliminating stereotypical images and portrayals of minority groups? To answer these questions, we need to place them in the context of the economic, technological, and social changes that have shaped postindustrial U.S. society and affected relationships between diverse groups in our society. For example, watching TV sitcoms and dramas today we see not only much greater diversity in cast members but also minority group members playing leading roles, something that was much less common just a few decades ago.
As you analyze how the various media forms portray cultural diversity, another thing to consider is the role of people with power in the media industry—those who make the decisions about what stories and images appear on a TV news program or magazine or newspaper article and how those programs or stories will be framed.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.
SHOW LESS
Some sociologists who study the media argue that the media is a reflection of what is already happening in society, while others contend that the media manipulates its audience by portraying events or issues with a particular slant or goal in mind. What do you think? Does the media reflect what is already going on in society, or.

Re: Transactional Leadership
Definition:
According to Organizational Management & Leadership: A Christian Perspective the definition of transactional leaders is “Transactional leaders lead by understanding the underlying principles of management and then applying those principles in the workplace; a transactional leader will guide followers to achieve organizational goals. Transactional leaders guide and motivate their followers in the direction of establish goals by clarifying roles and task requirements.”

Summary:
Dr. Rabindra Kanungo is currently part of the Faculty of Management at McGill University in Montreal, Quebec. He has been published numerous times and is involved with many research projects concerning work attitudes, work motivation and alienation, and leadership. Dr. Kanungo’s article Ethical Values of Transactional and Transformational Leader’s explores the ethics base for both types of leadership. According to Dr. Kanungo, there is already research that suggests that transformational leadership is based on moral foundation, but he suggests that transactional leadership is based on its own moral foundation from a different perspective. He explains that transactional and transformational leadership can be divided into two different types of moral perspectives: teleological and deontological. The teleological perspective of transactional leadership is more idiocentric or self-centric. It is based more on situational ethics and the ends justifying the means. Transformational leadership has a more deontological perspective which is allocentric or socio-centric. This type of leadership cares about the people involved and is based more on principle based ethics. Dr. Kanungo details how each type of leadership can be viewed as moral from the different perspectives. Transactional leadership act can be viewed as moral if both parties in a contract benefit or a majority benefits. Transformational leadership act would be considered moral if the intentions are altruistic.

Write a 3–5-page essay analyzing from a sociological perspective a chosen diversity issue covered in the media.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:

Competency 1: Describe theoretical ideas of power in relation to policy.
Discuss how minority and dominant groups are portrayed in a media piece in relation to the influence of power.
Discuss sociological concepts or theories appropriate for understanding the portrayal of diversity in the media.
Competency 2: Identify historical and contemporary influences of discrimination in U. S. culture.
Summarize a media piece using the sociological perspective on diversity.
Competency 3: Analyze the effects of social policy using aggregated data.
Analyze data that are appropriate for supporting or refuting the central tenets of media piece.
Competency 6: Apply in text the standard writing conventions for the discipline, including structure, voice, person, tone, and citation formatting.
Write coherently to support a central idea in appropriate format and with few errors of grammar, usage, and mechanics.
How are different social groups portrayed in the mass media in contemporary society? How far have we come in terms of reducing or eliminating stereotypical images and portrayals of minority groups? To answer these questions, we need to place them in the context of the economic, technological, and social changes that have shaped postindustrial U.S. society and affected relationships between diverse groups in our society. For example, watching TV sitcoms and dramas today we see not only much greater diversity in cast members but also minority group members playing leading roles, something that was much less common just a few decades ago.
As you analyze how the various media forms portray cultural diversity, another thing to consider is the role of people with power in the media industry—those who make the decisions about what stories and images appear on a TV news program or magazine or newspaper article and how those programs or stories will be framed.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.

Some sociologists who study the media argue that the media is a reflection of what is already happening in society, while others contend that the media manipulates its audience by portraying events or issues with a particular slant or goal in mind. What do you think? Does the media reflect what is already going on in society, or.

Write a 3-5 page paper describing where a physician practice and a h.docxowenhall46084
Write a 3-5 page paper describing where a physician practice and a hospital fall on the continuum of patient care, explaining the scope of responsibility and authority at the physician practice, and describing the differences of management's approach across the two settings.
Introduction
As a health care administrator, you will likely spend a great deal of your time focused on operations. You may find yourself working in a hospital, clinic, long-term care facility, hospice, urgent care center, home health agency, or a number of other types of organizations. Regardless of the type of organization, many of the operational responsibilities are the same.
Health care financing has become quite complex. Because most health care organizations are reimbursed primarily from a third party (insurance company), health care administrators must manage the communication between the patient, the insurance company, and the organization. Consumer-directed health plans (CDHPs) have increased in popularity as a way to reduce insurance premiums; however, the patient has a larger financial responsibility for services compared to managed care plans. This concept is known as cost sharing (Niles, 2021). It is very important to understand the payer mix of your organization, so you understand where and how revenue is coming in.
Information technology is another huge area of focus right now for health care administrators. The health care industry has lagged behind other industries in the area of information technology. The U.S. health care system has seen a large increase in the number of electronic medical records implemented across health care organizations (Niles, 2021). In addition, other technologies such as telehealth, electronic data warehouses (EDWs), and computerized physician order entry (CPOE) are quickly expanding and improving the delivery of health care.

Acetabularia acetabulum is a single-celled green alga that in its vegetative state is morphologically differentiated into a basal rhizoid and an axially elongated stalk, which bears whorls of branching hairs. The single diploid nucleus resides in the rhizoid.
Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence.

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.
The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Key Term: Robert Greenleaf (Servant Leadership)
Definition
“Greenleaf, was CEO of AT&T [over 30] years ago, lecturer and
teacher at Harvard and MIT, and author of
Servant Leadership
” (Gebhart, 1995)
Summary
Robert Greenleaf is best thought of as a revolutionary thinker in
3. terms of how to lead others in both business and the
community. “The emphasis in servant leadership theory is on
leaders whose primary aim is to serve their followers while
developing employees to their fullest potential in different areas
such as task effectiveness, community stewardship, self-
motivation, and also the development of their leadership
capabilities.” (Dierendonck & Patterson, 2015, p. 119)
In today’s workplace, Greenleaf is often quoted and the
inspiration for leading people in a way that brings about
positive results. Greenleaf’s theory was relatively unproved
until years later by a few scholars. These scholars conducted
several studies to determine the true results of the relationship
of servant-leaders and their direct reports in the workplace.
Discussion
In 1977, Greenleaf published a theory about how extraordinary
leaders develop the desire to serve others before themselves.
This trait in and of itself is what is called Servant Leadership.
Servant-leaders do all that they can to provide the highest need
of those they are leading before fulfilling their own needs. This
theory of leadership is not a short-term solution for problems in
the company. Servant leadership has been described “as
including an altruistic calling, which is the motivation of
leaders to put others’ needs and interests ahead of their own,
and organizational stewardship, which is orienting others
toward benefiting and serving the community.” (Dierendonck &
Patterson, 2015, p. 119) Greenleaf has stressed the need to
genuinely show concern for other people, businesses and
communities altogether.
4. There is a “deep connection between servant leadership
and compassionate love with the outgrowths of humility,
gratitude, forgiveness and altruism. Servant leadership has seen
remarkable attention in the academic literature, but more
interestingly, it has seen attention in the business world, mainly
because it offers an approach that speaks beyond the moment
and speaks to the humanity within us all. Servant leadership
offers an approach that matches the times we are in where both
leaders and followers should seek to do the right things, seek
the humanity within us all and offer real-world solutions that
are based on moral and virtuous strengths”. (Dierendonck &
Patterson, 2015, p. 128)
“One of the [many] challenges of servant leadership theory is
that the definition of servant leadership as given by Greenleaf
focuses mainly on the motivation to strive for a leadership
position and on the outcomes of servant leadership, leaving a
mystery of what happens in-between the impetus to serve and
the outcomes of serving. Until the end of the last century, little
attention was paid to the actual behavior of servant leaders.”
(Dierendonck & Patterson, 2015, p. 120) Many scholars have
conducted research trials to provide insight as to the results of
this leadership trend. As outlined in Dierendock & Patterson,
2015, the research trials have proven Greenleaf’s (among others
who followed) theory to be correct.
This team approach to making decisions and analyzing business
trends builds strength within the organization and within a
community. This model works best when like-minded leaders
are set in place and begin developing others. Once this has
been set in place there will be a huge culture change within the
5. organization. Additionally, this model obliterates the old way
of leading, which was top-down leadership. The servant-leader
philosophy is widely used today by several hundred
organizations in the world as it has brought about positive long-
term results.
Biblical Integration
In the bible, Jesus provides the best example of servant
leadership. In one of many lessons to the disciples “Jesus called
them to him and said to them, “You know that those who are
considered rulers of the Gentiles lord it over them, and their
great ones exercise authority over them. But it shall not be so
among you. But whoever would be great among you must be
your servant, and whoever would be first among you must be
slave of all. For even the Son of Man came not to be served but
to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.”” (Mark
10:42-45, ESV)
In our current society, so many people want to be served and get
everything right away. What a selfish way to live a life. The
good news is that 2000 years before Robert Greenleaf was born,
Jesus provided the blueprint to lead a better way and it was by
serving others.

Laissez-Faire Leadership
Collapse
Top of Form
Definition
7. "Under the laissez-faire form of leadership, a leader makes no
decisions. This type of leadership results in subordinates
exhibiting negative attitudes and lower performance. A laissez-
faire leader disassociates from the subordinates that he or she
leads, which means that the group may not be able to obtain all
resources to complete their jobs."
Satterlee, A. (2013). Organizational Management and
Leadership: A Christian Perspective. Raleigh: Synergistics
International Inc.
Summary
In Inju Yang's article, the positive effects of a laissez-faire
leader is discussed. Laisse-Faire leadership can be a strategic
choice among the leader and can be viewed as a positive
leadership style by the subordinates. Laissez-Faire leadership
can be viewed as a sign of respect for personal competences in
certain situations and it can be viewed as the leader being an
ethical leader by refraining from the imposition of power. In the
article it discusses how this leadership style can be viewed as
allowing subordinates to be free from "controlled motiviation".
It allows the subordinates to have some type of control and to
enhance their ability to handle challenges. It argues the fact that
employees feel empowered when they believe that they have a
choice as to how they go about doing their work.
Discussion
My views on a laissez-faire leader are slightly different than the
article. I strongly believe that in the workplace, people all need
a leader and it does depend on the job setting, what type of
8. leader you need. Based on the definition from the required
textbook for our course; it states that under this form of
leadership, a leader makes no decisions. In the workplace, if
you have a leader who makes no decisions, why are they
considered a leader? A leader is someone who motivates you
and inspires you to do better. A leader encourages you and lifts
you up when your workload may be huge or even when you look
like you could be having a rough day. The term laissez-
faire leader to me means a leader who is basically "lax or lazy".
I have found this to be in managers who are longtime managers
of the company who are close to retirement and begin to coast
in their position. I am currently under the leadership of one and
I experience this leadership style first hand. My manager does
not partake in decision making; he allows his employees to do
whatever they feel is necessary. I understand to some extent
giving your employees that ability to be free and make
decisions; however when a decision is made that should require
a manager's support that manager should step up to the plate and
become involved. I have noticed on my team that the morale of
the employees is at an all time low and the productivity of our
team is low. I am a vocal person and I am always willing to step
up to the plate and make decisions for the team that will benefit
us. Sometimes this can be a negative thing because since their is
no support from our leader, I find that I am the only one willing
to share a decision or solve a problem on my own. With our
leader not stepping up to make decisions and help performance,
it causes the individuals on my team to be quiet and not voice
their opinions or share decisions.
Biblical Intergration
In the bible, Saul was a leader who refused to grow and make
decisions. Saul's negative role as a laissez-faire leader and his
refusal to yield completely to God resulted in him being
troubled by an evil spirit. Saul never relied on God's wisdom,
he was self-centered. Saul put his own wisdom ahead of his
9. people and made poor decisions. This eventually caused him to
lose everything. Saul was the perfect example in the bible to use
as a laissez-faire leader. Saul never valued the voice of the
people and he failed to take responsibility. In 1 Samuel 15:24-
25, it talks about how Saul had sinned and transgressed the
Lord's command because he feared the people and he obeyed
them. Instead of leading the people as a leader should and make
decisions on where they needed to go, he feared them.
