We wanted to translate the concepts in empowerment theory into every day language in order to communicate clearly with people who are carrying out the YES curriculum.
The theory has three primary components: intrapersonal empowerment, interpersonal empowerment, and behavioral empowerment. We express these as: “feeling”, “connecting” and “doing”. Feeling refers to the beliefs and perceptions that you have about yourself. Connecting refers to your relationships with others and with the surrounding environment. Doing refers to the actions that you take that affect your surroundings and yourself.
Each of these aspects of empowerment can be measured by several psychological constructs. These are reflected in our model by simple statements, such as “I am good at leading groups” (leadership efficacy), “I know adults who can help me solve problems” (adult resources), and “I participate in neighborhood activities” (community engagement).
When YES group leaders connect the curriculum with its underlying concepts they can do a better job of communicating the intent of each activity to participating youth.

Tribute to Nelson Mandela: An Entrepreneurial Retrospective by Penina Rybak Penina Rybak
We are truly saddened to hear about the passing of Nelson Mandela, who singlehandedly taught present and future generations of children and adults what it means to be a self actualized human being, a thinker with self awareness of the essence of life and worth, and someone who practiced what so many just preach: stand up for what you believe in.
Nelson Mandela was a pilot in the truest sense of the word; for people in his country, but also for people worldwide.I think Nelson Mandela would have made a fantastic social entrepreneur, and an even better mentor in Real Time.I only have his virtual mentorship to guide me, his “voice” added to the many voices in my head, herding me on my own entrepreneurial journey.

For professional development, I need to use evidence to analyse and incorporate the experiences so that I can form an instructive part for my future practice and work. Professional growth and development is strongly encouraged. So it is advised to become involved with professional associations (Boyle, 2013, p.12). I should participate in professional conferences. Involvement and attending in conferences, helps to develop in professional skills as well as forming and maintaining professional relationship with colleagues. Placement can put me at a distinct advantage when applying for future employment.

CSR Definition.pdf
What is Corporate Social Responsibility?
From the article “What do we mean at DePaul by a "Socially Responsible Leader?”
there are five broad categories of behavior that engender social responsibility. The
article mostly concentrates on an individual’s behavior emphasizing that much of social
responsibility revolves around your behavior and my behavior in an effort to make the
world a better place. As the course progresses we will begin to broaden the meaning of
CSR. As a result I would like to arrive at a common understanding of what is CSR.
Milton Friedman’s, a highly regarded economist, classic ideology is corporations exist to
maximize profits for shareholders. If corporation employ people, produce goods and
services that are in demand by consumers while maximizing returns or profits to
shareholder is sufficient to fulfill a firm’s responsibility to society. Many have criticized
Friedman’s viewpoint as too short sighted and philosophically inappropriate. The critics
say it is simple too capitalist. If you consider a firm’s behavior in the short run (a month,
a quarter or perhaps a year) then the criticism leveled against his point of view has
merit. On the other hand, if you consider a longer period of time (five years, ten years,
twenty years or longer) then the criticism is not as strong. A firm that stays in business
for several decades has become part of the community. The firm provided income to
employees and, I suspect, provides part of its profits for the betterment of the
community. In many cases, well established firms maximize profits by supporting the
community which encourages employees to stay with the firm which lowers new
employee training cost while elevating brand loyalty. The firm has followed the law,
paid local, state and federal taxes and produced goods and services that consumers
are willing to purchase. It is perhaps fulfilling its social responsibility.
Be that as it may, Milton Friedman’s viewpoint has given way to other definitions of CSR
and the one that I think fits this class is offered by McWilliams and Siegel in an the
article Corporate Social Responsibility: A theory of the firm perspective, The Academy
of Management Review (2001). In the article, CSR is defined as “actions that appear to
further some social good, beyond the interests of the firm and that which is required by
law. CSR means going beyond obeying the law.” In essence, the firm is going above
and beyond the call of duty. It is serving the community via programs or monetary
contribution that benefits the local, national or global markets beyond their legal
obligations. The firm may sponsor a little league team, support a blood drive, contribute
to the local schools or form foundations that will contribute funds for years to come. In
essence, the corporation does not have to contribute to society; it wants to contribute to
society.

organizational world is awash with talk of corporate c u l t u r e - a n d for good reason.
Culture has become a powerful way to hold a company together against a tidal wave of
pressures for disintegration, such as decentralization, de-layering, and downsi:
ing. At the same time, traditional mechanisms for integration-hierar-
chies and control systems, among other devices-are proving costly
and ineffective.
Culture, then, is what remains to bolster a company's identity as one
organization. Witbout culture, a company lacks values, direction, and
purpose. Does tbat matter? For the answer, just observe any company with
a strong eulture-and then compare it to one without.
But what is corporate culture? Perhaps more important, is there one
right culture for every organization? And if the answer is no-which we

firmly believe-bow can a manager change an orga-
nization's culture? Those three questions are the
subject of this article.
Culture, in a word, is community. It is an out-
come of how people relate to one another. Commu-
nities exist at work just as they do outside the com-
mercial arena. Like families, villages, schools, and
clubs, businesses rest on patterns of social interac-
tion that sustain them over time or are their undo-
ing. They are built on shared interests and mutual
obligations and thrive on cooperation and friend-
ships. It is because of the commonality of all com-
munities that we believe a business's culture can be
better understood when viewed through the same
lens that has illuminated the study of human orga-
nizations for nearly 150 years.
That is the lens of sociology, which divides com-
munity into two types of distinct human relations:
sociability and solidarity. Briefly, sociability is a
measure of sincere friendliness among members of
a community. Solidarity is a measure of a commu-
nity's ability to pursue shared objectives quickly
and effectively, regardless of personal ties. These
two categories may at first seem not to capture the
whole range of human behaviors, but they have
stood the test of close scrutiny, in both academia
and the field.
What do sociability and solidarity have to do
with culture? The answer comes when you plot the
dimensions against each other. The result is four
types of community: .
The future is ever-changing, and our leadership needs to change carmanl5wisc
The future is ever-changing, and our leadership needs to change with it. Cultural beliefs and practices are changing across the globe, people are growing and adapting to new norms. Whereas one culture might have put restrictions on how high a woman could climb in the corporate world even so recently as a decade ago, we now see women becoming CEOs and Presidents of companies they never would have had this kind of access to before. Demographics are shifting and people are becoming more aware of the concept that gender and belief have far less impact on success than do things such as adaptability and ingenuity. Leaders of the future must embrace this change in order to be most successful.
Three characteristics that a leader of the future will need to have are vision, emotional intelligence, and courage. Vision is a key factor in how a leader will succeed because it is inherently different than say, ideas and ambition. Everyone can have a good idea at some point, but a leader has the drive to turn that idea into a vision. They can take that idea and shape it into a vision that can be shared with all, driving a team forward towards a goal that has been set. They can implement ideas in a manner that has lasting effects and results. Without the vision to drive an idea to it’s peak and to mold it into a construct that can be implemented by the team, it is just an idea. Leaders of the future need to take their ideas and drive them to be something more than just “par for the course” or “status quo”. (Perrin, et al., 2012).
A leader of the future needs to have emotional intelligence. This is not the same as empathy or sympathy. This pertains to a leader’s understanding of the people they are leading. By becoming not only relatable but also accessible and accountable to the people they are overseeing, a leader is better able to anticipate needs of the people they oversee. They can configure the people under them into a structure that will produce the desired results of a project. They can anticipate and account for the different learning styles and work ethics of the people they oversee, focusing them into groups or teams that will play off one another’s strengths and weaknesses in a way that will enable growth from everyone. By exhibiting emotional intelligence, a leader is showing that they are committed to getting the best from the people they oversee, and that they understand that not every person performs the same as everyone else.
Courage is another key component of the leader of the future. This does not mean that a leader is unafraid of risk, but rather that they exhibit the courage to take the risk in order to achieve success. Without risk there is no real room for growth, and without growth we become stagnant. Companies fall when their leaders are unwilling or unable to take risks due to a lack of courage. If Steve Jobs or Jeff Bezos hadn’t had had the courage to take their companies into the l ...

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.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
2. Personality Development, according to me, is a way to
gradually change a person lacking in many qualities to a person with qualities such
as vision, co-operation, confidence, motivation etc.
“Vision is seen as a power to see the invisibles”
Today is the era of real competitive market may it be any field
related to people. Our subject raises a very crucial point regarding our society and
its working which demands urgent attention, as well as concern of various related
entities.
Presently, we can see that our school experience teaches us to be
co-operative in our daily lives. But our society is moving towards individualistic
and competitive grounds very rapidly. If we analyze the view from teacher’s
perspective, they are doing the right thing. Co-operation and Collaborative
working are the qualities which should be inculcated in every person right
from the roots.
The simple group assignments and projects at school level and
high-school level are not only given for the academic excellence but it somehow,
without our knowledge, teaches us to motivate others for higher participation,
helps in deciding some shared goals, develops our social skills, gives us a chance
to understand others’ point of view, respecting that view points, and the most
3. importantly, takes everyone along towards the successive completion of the task
assigned.
I believe co-operation is the most required ingredient of
personality development. I also see society is highly competitive but first we need
to understand what this society is comprised of. Every event which occurs in the
companies, or the society, it is not possible for a single person to complete it on
its own. He or She has to ultimately convince others or the event fails.
4. When we talk about competition in the companies, then they are
not acting individualistic. Its progress reports, profits margins, increased
market share are in fact the result of the team efforts comprising many
corporate brains working behind the scene. Be it any arm of society whether
Real Estate, Corporate World, Sports, Government, etc, there is no place for
individuals with selfish interests and ill-feeling for others.
If selfish motives exist, those cannot be sustained for a long time. Even the
mischief gangs work in co-operation.
“Co-Operation is the ultimate feeling which gives internal happiness”
5. Today, when the world is suffocating under the impure air of
Global Warming, Poverty, Corruption, Carbon Emission, Terrorism, only the
holistic approach towards the various issues could provide some gains. These
problems can only be tackled with mutual understanding, co-operation, and a
common agenda of saving the world. It again requires mentally developed
personalities who could sense the emergency of situation.
“Destructive Criticism and Undue Competition Leads Only To Disasters”
Unwanted competition leads to obstructed communication,
negative attitudes, disagreement over common issues, coercive tactics,
and damaged relationships. On the other hand, cooperative approaches are
often characterized by effective communication, friendliness,
helpfulness, co-ordination, feelings of agreement, goodwill, and
recognition of the others’ interests.
The age level of 15 to 22 are the important years
which shape one’s personality and moreover, students and persons in this
age level have their brains working at optimum efficiency. There is energy,
zeal and enthusiasm to do something. If students in this particular age level
could be groomed well than that will be a great asset for any nation. They
6. need to have a broad outlook and they should be fully aware of the things
happening around them.
This is the age level in which most of the innocent minds get
involved in mischievous activities or they develop really bad habits like
drug addiction, alcohol addiction, and smoking. Some people face
tensions, irritability, frustration, depression, anger due to some internal
conflicts of heart and mind. They need a proper guidance from
professional trainers who could really turn these base metals into noble
metals.
7. So we need to undertake a 360 degree personality
development approach which will lead all of us to a better, safer, and a
brighter future.
