LITERARY TERMS
"Structure" includes all the elements in a story. The final objective is to see the story as a whole and to become aware of how the parts are put together to produce a unified effect.
ELEMENTS OF PLOT
All fiction is based on conflict and this conflict is presented in a structured format called PLOT.
Exposition
The introductory material which gives the setting, creates the tone, presents the characters, and presents other facts necessary to understanding the story.
Foreshadowing
The use of hints or clues to suggest what will happen later in the story.
Inciting Force
The event or character that triggers the conflict.
Conflict
The essence of fiction. It creates plot. The conflicts we encounter can usually be identified as one of four kinds. (Man versus…Man, Nature, Society, or Self)
Rising Action
A series of events that builds from the conflict. It begins with the inciting force and ends with the climax.
Crisis
The conflict reaches a turning point. At this point the opposing forces in the story meet and the conflict becomes most intense. The crisis occurs before or at the same time as the climax.
Climax

Reaction Paper # 2—After reading this week’s notes Reading Fi.docx
Reaction Paper # 2—After reading this week’s notes “Reading Fiction” and “Graduation” by Maya
Angelou, complete reaction paper 2 as described below.
Discussed in the notes this week are 6 elements of fiction: Tone, Plot, Characterization, Setting, Theme
and Point of View. Choose one element (other than POV) and reflect on how Angelou uses it in her
writing. Give specific examples and quotes from the text to show how she uses the element and its
effect on the story. Be sure to quote correctly (using quotation marks and providing paragraph #s).
Remember that reaction papers should be 1-2 pages, double-spaced.
Below is a brief sample of how to discuss one of the elements with examples from the text. The example
discusses the use of point of view in the story:
Maya Angelou’s story “Graduation,” is told from first-person point of view, told through the
main character, Marguerite Johnson. Although it is not yet clear who the narrator is within the first 5
paragraphs, in paragraph 6 Angelou writes, “In the Store I was the person of the moment.” Thus, we are
introduced to the narrator of the story. The rest of the story uses pronouns such as we, me, my which
solidifies the narrator’s point of view.
Hearing the story unfold from first-person POV gives credibility to the theme of the story.
Maguerite Johnson is one of the graduates excited to be graduating, and is present at every point of the
story—from the events leading up to the day, the events during the ceremony, and her feelings about
what has occurred.
In paragraph 7, she tells us, “My class was wearing buttery-yellow piqué dresses, and Momma
launched out mine.” She goes on to describe the expert way her mother crafted her dress. It is clear
from all of her descriptions that she, her family and the community looked toward the day with great
anticipation, even though as the narrator states, “I was only twelve years old and merely graduating
from the eighth grade” (paragraph 8). She goes on to explain that many teachers in the Arkansas Negro
schools had the same diploma but were able to teach. This shows that at the time, an eighth-grade
graduation was quite an achievement which could lead to possible (anticipated) professions…

Reading Fiction
Fiction creates imaginary worlds by telling stories written in prose (ordinary, unrhymed
language) about realistic characters, set in physical environments, and with attention to
descriptive detail.
Works of fiction narrate, or tell stories. Narrative is not specific to fiction or to any other
literary genre. Telling stories pervades almost every aspect of our daily lives. We learn
very early on how to recognize and tell stories, and we rely heavily on narrative to
organize and make sense of our experience. Even in our sleep, we tell stories in the
form of dreams. It is impossible to imagine our lives without these narratives; in fact,
every culture uses them to order a ...

The scenes shift with no discernable rhyme or reason. Crane invites every reader in. Critic Anthony Channell Hilfer disagrees with point, saying, “Crane’s image is an accusation of the putative picturesque spectators” (Hilfer 254). Hilfer’s challenge goes against what Crane is trying to do, by making nature a copilot through the reading.

3. Nature as Protagonist in “The Open Boat”
The bottom of the sea is cruel.
—Hart Crane, “Voyages”
As many critics have argued, questions of perspective and epistemology are
central to Stephen Crane’s “The Open Boat” (Kent; Hutchinson). The story’s
first sentence famously clues us to this: “None of them knew the color of
the sky” (68). But behind the uncertainties of perspective is a determinable
ontology, a presence, or rather, I shall argue, a sort of presence, the existence
of which implies a rectified aesthetic response. This response emerges, how-
ever, from negations, denials, and occultations: what is not seen, who is not
there, and what does not happen.3 Here again, when we look at nature we
behold things that are not there and miss “the nothing that is.”
Fully as much as Stevens in “The Snow Man,” Crane is concerned
with certain conventions of representation: personification, the pictur-
esque, the American sublime, and the melodramatic, which although it
does not inform “The Snow Man” is played on in Stevens’s “The Ameri-
can Sublime.” Crane’s story is intertextual with nature poetry, sentimental
poetry, hymns, and landscape art, as well as with Darwinism, theological
clichés, and, less obviously, theological actualities. For the most part these
conventions add up to what the Stevens poem declares is “not there.” To
get to “the nothing that is” we must first traverse this ocean of error. Doing
so helps keep our p.

The essence of fiction. It creates plot. The conflicts we encounter can usually be identified as one of four kinds. (Man versus…Man, Nature, Society, or Self)
Rising Action
A series of events that builds from the conflict. It begins with the inciting force and ends with the climax.
Crisis
The conflict reaches a turning point. At this point the opposing forces in the story meet and the conflict becomes most intense. The crisis occurs before or at the same time as the climax.
Climax
The climax is the result of the crisis. It is the high point of the story for the reader. Frequently, it is the moment of the highest interest and greatest emotion. The point at which the outcome of the conflict can be predicted.
Falling Action
The events after the climax which close the story.
Resolution (Denouement)
Rounds out and concludes the action.
CHARACTERIZATION
MAJOR CHARACTERS
Almost always round or three-dimensional characters. They have good and bad qualities. Their goals, ambitions and values change. A round character changes as a result of what happens to him or her. A character who changes inside as a result of what happens to him is referred to in literature as a DYNAMIC character. A dynamic character grows or progresses to a higher level of understanding in the course of the story.
Protagonist
The main character in the story
Antagonist
The character or force that opposes the protagonist.
Foil
A character who provides a contrast to the protagonist.
MINOR CHARACTERS
Almost always flat or two-dimensional characters. They have only one or two stri ...

Reaction Paper # 2—After reading this week’s notes Reading Fi.docx
Reaction Paper # 2—After reading this week’s notes “Reading Fiction” and “Graduation” by Maya
Angelou, complete reaction paper 2 as described below.
Discussed in the notes this week are 6 elements of fiction: Tone, Plot, Characterization, Setting, Theme
and Point of View. Choose one element (other than POV) and reflect on how Angelou uses it in her
writing. Give specific examples and quotes from the text to show how she uses the element and its
effect on the story. Be sure to quote correctly (using quotation marks and providing paragraph #s).
Remember that reaction papers should be 1-2 pages, double-spaced.
Below is a brief sample of how to discuss one of the elements with examples from the text. The example
discusses the use of point of view in the story:
Maya Angelou’s story “Graduation,” is told from first-person point of view, told through the
main character, Marguerite Johnson. Although it is not yet clear who the narrator is within the first 5
paragraphs, in paragraph 6 Angelou writes, “In the Store I was the person of the moment.” Thus, we are
introduced to the narrator of the story. The rest of the story uses pronouns such as we, me, my which
solidifies the narrator’s point of view.
Hearing the story unfold from first-person POV gives credibility to the theme of the story.
Maguerite Johnson is one of the graduates excited to be graduating, and is present at every point of the
story—from the events leading up to the day, the events during the ceremony, and her feelings about
what has occurred.
In paragraph 7, she tells us, “My class was wearing buttery-yellow piqué dresses, and Momma
launched out mine.” She goes on to describe the expert way her mother crafted her dress. It is clear
from all of her descriptions that she, her family and the community looked toward the day with great
anticipation, even though as the narrator states, “I was only twelve years old and merely graduating
from the eighth grade” (paragraph 8). She goes on to explain that many teachers in the Arkansas Negro
schools had the same diploma but were able to teach. This shows that at the time, an eighth-grade
graduation was quite an achievement which could lead to possible (anticipated) professions…

Reading Fiction
Fiction creates imaginary worlds by telling stories written in prose (ordinary, unrhymed
language) about realistic characters, set in physical environments, and with attention to
descriptive detail.
Works of fiction narrate, or tell stories. Narrative is not specific to fiction or to any other
literary genre. Telling stories pervades almost every aspect of our daily lives. We learn
very early on how to recognize and tell stories, and we rely heavily on narrative to
organize and make sense of our experience. Even in our sleep, we tell stories in the
form of dreams. It is impossible to imagine our lives without these narratives; in fact,
every culture uses them to order a ...

Examine how nature is discussed throughout “The Open Boat.” Look at the literary critical piece by Anthony Channell Hilfer. Once you have established your own ideas, consider how Hilfer discusses nature in the short story and analyze the following questions: What does nature mean to the men aboard the boat? or Do their perceptions of nature shift throughout the story? Why or why not?

The scenes shift with no discernable rhyme or reason. Crane invites every reader in. Critic Anthony Channell Hilfer disagrees with point, saying, “Crane’s image is an accusation of the putative picturesque spectators” (Hilfer 254). Hilfer’s challenge goes against what Crane is trying to do, by making nature a copilot through the reading.

3. Nature as Protagonist in “The Open Boat”
The bottom of the sea is cruel.
—Hart Crane, “Voyages”
As many critics have argued, questions of perspective and epistemology are
central to Stephen Crane’s “The Open Boat” (Kent; Hutchinson). The story’s
first sentence famously clues us to this: “None of them knew the color of
the sky” (68). But behind the uncertainties of perspective is a determinable
ontology, a presence, or rather, I shall argue, a sort of presence, the existence
of which implies a rectified aesthetic response. This response emerges, how-
ever, from negations, denials, and occultations: what is not seen, who is not
there, and what does not happen.3 Here again, when we look at nature we
behold things that are not there and miss “the nothing that is.”
Fully as much as Stevens in “The Snow Man,” Crane is concerned
with certain conventions of representation: personification, the pictur-
esque, the American sublime, and the melodramatic, which although it
does not inform “The Snow Man” is played on in Stevens’s “The Ameri-
can Sublime.” Crane’s story is intertextual with nature poetry, sentimental
poetry, hymns, and landscape art, as well as with Darwinism, theological
clichés, and, less obviously, theological actualities. For the most part these
conventions add up to what the Stevens poem declares is “not there.” To
get to “the nothing that is” we must first traverse this ocean of error. Doing
so helps keep our p.

Examine each of these items, which are available on the internet .docx
Examine each of these items, which are available on the internet:
1) for music, listen to the first movement of J.S. Bach's MAGNIFICAT; this is the High Baroque era. If you can find a performance with Sir John Eliot Gardiner and his Monteverdi Choir and the English Baroque soloists, go for it.
2) For art, find Giovanni Bellini's ST. FRANCIS IN THE DESERT; you might want to read up on the background of this wonderful painting. Not only St. Francis, but what else do you notice i the painting?
3) For architecture, look at the church at Melk Abbey, Austria; BE SURE to look at the interior shots. Again,
this is high Baroque--but in post-Reformation Catholicism, it had a political aim, too; can you figure it out?
After you have analyzed these, telling what you think the artists/musicians valued and were trying to express, tell me what
YOU think about them! Remember, if you read up on these items, LIST THE WORKS YOU CONSULTED! That way, you avoid plagiarism.

BACKGROUND
The client is a 34-year-old Pakistani female who moved to the United States in her late teens/early 20s. She is currently in an “arranged” marriage (her husband was selected for her since she was 9 years old). She presents to your office today following a 21 day hospitalization for what was diagnosed as “brief psychotic disorder.” She was given this diagnosis as her symptoms have persisted for less than 1 month.
Prior to admission, she was reporting visions of Allah, and over the course of a week, she believed that she was the prophet Mohammad. She believed that she would deliver the world from sin. Her husband became concerned about her behavior to the point that he was afraid of leaving their 4 children with her. One evening, she was “out of control” which resulted in his calling the police and her subsequent admission to an inpatient psych unit.
During today’s assessment, she appears quite calm, and insists that the entire incident was “blown out of proportion.” She denies that she believed herself to be the prophet Mohammad and states that her husband was just out to get her because he never loved her and wanted an “American wife” instead of her. She tells you that she knows this because the television is telling her so.
She currently weighs .
Examination of Modern LeadershipModule 1 Leadership History, F.docx
Examination of Modern Leadership
Module 1: Leadership: History, Fundamentals, and the Modern Context
Module 1 content establishes the context for the entire course dedicated to the examination of modern and postmodern leadership. The introduction of critical theory and its use in ORG561 provides a framework for investigation. The context of social, economic, political, and technological environments informs an exploration of modern and postmodern leadership approaches. Emphasis on leader self-awareness sets the stage for reflection, introspection, and personal leadership development.
Learning Outcomes
1. Compare and contrast historical leadership concepts against modern and postmodern organization needs.
2. Analyze leadership approaches using a critical framework.
3. Construct a personal leadership biography.
For Your Success & Readings
A key to success in ORG561 is to start early, build, reflect, reinforce, build, reflect, and reinforce.
Begin each week’s study by reading and comprehending the learning outcomes. Learning outcomes are always revealed in assignments, discussions, and lectures. Likewise, learning outcomes are reflected in rubrics, which are used as objective measures for scoring and grading. Establish the learning outcomes as your checklist for success.
In Module 1 criticaltheory is introduced through the readings, lecture, discussion, and Critical Thinking Assignment. The critical approach provides new frameworks on which to research leadership. You may not be familiar with critical inquiry, so seize the opportunity to advance your analytic skills. You are expected to use one or more critical frames in each module of this course. Take the time this week to fully understand the reasoning and context of critical theory.
Studying the history of leadership requires reading publications from earlier eras. Notice that some of the required and recommended readings for Module 1 are not current publications, but these contribute to understanding the earlier periods of organization and leadership study.
Postmodern leadership literature expounds on the notion that self-awareness is a critical component required to lead. In ORG561, the thread of self-examination is woven throughout the course. You will have opportunities to move beyond reflection to develop a better understanding of personal assumptions and biases, skills and competencies, and professional development plans, all related to leadership. Embrace the opportunity!

Executive FunctionThe Search for an Integrated AccountMari.docx
Executive Function
The Search for an Integrated Account
Marie T. Banich
Department of Psychology & Neuroscience, and Institute of Cognitive Science, University of Colorado at Boulder;
Department of Psychiatry, University of Colorado Denver
ABSTRACT—In general, executive function can be thought
of as the set of abilities required to effortfully guide be-
havior toward a goal, especially in nonroutine situations.
Psychologists are interested in expanding the under-
standing of executive function because it is thought to be a
key process in intelligent behavior, it is compromised in a
variety of psychiatric and neurological disorders, it varies
across the life span, and it affects performance in compli-
cated environments, such as the cockpits of advanced
aircraft. This article provides a brief introduction to the
concept of executive function and discusses how it is
assessed and the conditions under which it is compromised.
A short overview of the diverse theoretical viewpoints re-
garding its psychological and biological underpinnings is
also provided. The article concludes with a consideration
of how a multilevel approach may provide a more inte-
grated account of executive function than has been previ-
ously available.
KEYWORDS—executive function; frontal lobe; prefrontal
cortex; inhibition; task switching; working memory; atten-
tion; top-down control
Like other psychological constructs, such as memory, executive
function is multidimensional. As such, there exists a variety of
models that provide varying viewpoints as to its basic component
processes. Nonetheless, common across most of them is the idea
that executive function is a process used to effortfully guide
behavior toward a goal, especially in nonroutine situations.
Various functions or abilities are thought to fall under the rubric
of executive function. These include prioritizing and sequencing
behavior, inhibiting familiar or stereotyped behaviors, creating
and maintaining an idea of what task or information is most
relevant for current purposes (often referred to as an attentional
or mental set), providing resistance to information that is dis-
tracting or task irrelevant, switching between task goals, uti-
lizing relevant information in support of decision making,
categorizing or otherwise abstracting common elements across
items, and handling novel information or situations. As can be
seen from this list, the functions that fall under the category of
executive function are indeed wide ranging.
ASSESSING EXECUTIVE FUNCTION
The very nature of executive function makes it difficult to
measure in the clinic or the laboratory; it involves an individual
guiding his or her behavior, especially in novel, unstructured,
and nonroutine situations that require some degree of judgment.
In contrast, standard testing situations are structured—partic-
ipants are explicitly told what the task is, given rules for per-
forming the task, and provide.
Executive Compensation and IncentivesMartin J. ConyonEx.docx
Executive Compensation and Incentives
Martin J. Conyon*
Executive Overview
The objective of a properly designed executive compensation package is to attract, retain, and motivate
CEOs and senior management. The standard economic approach for understanding executive pay is the
principal-agent model. This paper documents the changes in executive pay and incentives in U.S. firms
between 1993 and 2003. We consider reasons for these transformations, including agency theory, changes
in the managerial labor markets, shifts in firm strategy, and theories concerning managerial power. We show that
boards and compensation committees have become more independent over time. In addition, we demonstrate
that compensation committees containing affiliated directors do not set greater pay or fewer incentives.
Introduction
E
xecutive compensation is a complex and con-
troversial subject. For many years, academics,
policymakers, and the media have drawn atten-
tion to the high levels of pay awarded to U.S.
chief executive officers (CEOs), questioning
whether they are consistent with shareholder in-
terests.1 Some academics have further argued that
flaws in CEO pay arrangements and deviations
from shareholders’ interests are widespread and
considerable.2 For example, Lucian Bebchuk and
Jesse Fried provide a lucid account of the mana-
gerial power view and accompanying evidence.3
Marianne Bertrand and Sendhil Mullainathan too
provide an analysis of the ‘skimming view’ of CEO
pay.4 In contrast, John Core et al. present an
economic contracting approach to executive pay
and incentives, assessing whether CEOs receive
inefficient pay without performance.5 In this pa-
per, we show what has happened to CEO pay in
the United States. We do not claim to distinguish
between the contracting and managerial power
views of executive pay. Instead, we document the
pattern of executive pay and incentives in the
United States, investigating whether this pattern
is consistent with economic theory.
The Context: Who Sets Executive Pay?
B
efore examining the empirical evidence pre-
sented in this paper, it is important to consider
the pay-setting process and who sets executive
pay. The standard economic theory of executive
compensation is the principal-agent model.6 The
theory maintains that firms seek to design the most
efficient compensation packages possible in order to
attract, retain, and motivate CEOs, executives, and
managers.7 In the agency model, shareholders set
pay. In practice, however, the compensation com-
mittee of the board determines pay on behalf of
shareholders. A principal (shareholder) designs a
contract and makes an offer to an agent (CEO/
manager). Executive compensation ameliorates a
moral hazard problem (i.e., manager opportunism)
arising from low firm ownership. By using stock
options, restricted stock, and long-term contracts,
shareholders motivate the CEO to maximize firm
value. In other words, shareholders try to design
optimal compensation packages .

Executing the Strategy
Learning Objectives
After reading this chapter, you should be able to:
• Distinguish good operational plans from weak ones.
• Detail the value of tracking progress on all operational plans.
• Discuss why emergent strategies occur and how they might affect an organization’s
current strategy.
• Implement the ten basic steps of a generic strategic formulation process.
• Manage, improve, and evaluate an existing strategic management process.

CHAPTER 9Section 9.1 Managing Operational Plans
Implementing a strategy (see Figure 1.1) in the real world is not a leisurely swim across
a calm pond on a sunny day, but rather like crossing from one bank of a raging river to
the other, encountering hidden eddies, fog, driving rain, lightning, and riptides along the
way. While it is not impossible to reach the other bank (the goal), the task often becomes
one of overcoming obstacles and making constant adjustments without losing sight of the
goal. Implementation is like that. Even the most brilliant strategy is worthless if it cannot
be implemented.
This chapter focuses on strategy execution and its difficulties. Part of the chapter is devoted
to assessing, improving, and managing the strategy formulation process itself.
9.1 Managing Operational Plans
The process for obtaining board approval of operational plans is covered in this chapter.
Exactly what is it that gets approved? An operational plan is a document that specifies the
projects or tasks that must be accomplished to achieve particular operational objectives.
Many of these plans will contain activities that are ongoing. Some will include plans for
enhanced or new services. Details specified in operational plans include the names of those
who will be involved and the indi-
vidual responsible for each one, what
equipment will be needed, when each
will start and end, and the estimated
costs for each activity. Given the level
of detail required, it should come as
no surprise that an operational plan
for a large functional unit, such as the
nursing department in a hospital, can
run to many pages, as there are lots of
activities to be detailed. Operational
plans for small HSOs such as physi-
cian clinics and community health
centers may be just a few pages long
unless new strategic initiatives are to
be undertaken.
It takes contributions from everyone
who will be involved in that HSO’s
operations to create such plans. They
will make sure that continuing cur-
rent operations are included in the plans, which is easily done. What adds a level of com-
plexity and difficulty is incorporating additional tasks demanded by a change in strategy.
Consider the following scenarios, which illustrate the difficulty in creating operational
plans that involve more than simply repeating what was done the previous year:

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
