When you put all the pieces
together, a new picture
emerges for why women don’t
make it into the C-suite. It’s
not the glass ceiling, but the
sum of many obstacles along
the way.

Women occupy 40% of all managerial posi-
tions in the United States. But only 6% of
the Fortune 500’s top executives are female.
And just 2% of those firms have women
CEOs.
We’ve long blamed such numbers on the
“glass ceiling,” the notion that women suc-
cessfully climb the corporate hierarchy until
they’re blocked just below the summit. But
the problem stems from discrimination op-
erating at all ranks, not just the top, say
Eagly and Carli.
Therefore, to move more women into your
company’s executive suite, you must attack
all barriers to advancement simulta-
neously. For example, prepare women for
line management with demanding assign-
ments. Use objective criteria to measure
performance. And give working mothers
additional time to prove themselves worthy
of promotion.
Women’s leadership style—characterized
by innovating, building trust and empower-
ing followers—is ideally suited to today’s
business challenges. Tackle the obstacles to
women’s progress, and you’ll increase your
firm’s competitive prowess.
Eagly and Carli recommend these strategies
for increasing the number of women in top
positions in your firm:
UNDERSTAND THE CAREER BARRIERS
WOMEN ENCOUNTER
Extensive academic and government research
studies identify these obstacles:
•
Prejudice:
Men are promoted more quickly
than women with equivalent qualifica-
tions, even in traditionally female settings
such as nursing and education.
• Resistance to women’s leadership: People
view successful female managers as more
deceitful, pushy, selfish, and abrasive than
successful male managers.
• Leadership style issues: Many female lead-
ers struggle to reconcile qualities people
prefer in women (compassion for others)
with qualities people think leaders need to
succeed (.

You know that to sustain long-term profit-
ability you must respond strategically to
competition. And you naturally keep tabs
on your
established rivals
. But as you scan
the competitive arena, are you also looking
beyond
your direct competitors? As Porter
explains in this update of his revolutionary
1979 HBR article, four additional competi-
tive forces can hurt your prospective profits:
•
Savvy
customers
can force down prices
by playing you and your rivals against
one another.
•
Powerful
suppliers
may constrain your
profits if they charge higher prices.
•
Aspiring
entrants
, armed with new ca-
pacity and hungry for market share, can
ratchet up the investment required for
you to stay in the game.
•
Substitute offerings
can lure customers
away.
Consider commercial aviation: It’s one of
the least profitable industries because all
five forces are strong.
Established rivals
compete intensely on price.
Customers
are
fickle, searching for the best deal regardless
of carrier.
Suppliers
—plane and engine
manufacturers, along with unionized labor
forces—bargain away the lion’s share of air-
lines’ profits.
New players
enter the indus-
try in a constant stream. And
substitutes
are readily available—such as train or car
travel.
By analyzing all five competitive forces, you
gain a complete picture of what’s influenc-
ing profitability in your industry. You iden-
tify game-changing trends early, so you can
swiftly exploit them. And you spot ways to
work around constraints on profitability—
or even reshape the forces in your favor.
By understanding how the five competitive forces influence profitability.

The habits of Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, and
other innovative CEOs reveal much about
the underpinnings of their creative think-
ing. Research shows that five discovery
skills distinguish the most innovative
entrepreneurs from other executives.
DOING
•
Questioning
allows innovators to break
out of the status quo and consider new
possibilities.
•
Through
observing
, innovators detect
small behavioral details—in the
activities of customers, suppliers, and
other companies—that suggest new
ways of doing things.
•
In
experimenting
, they relentlessly try on
new experiences and explore the world.
•
And through
networking
with individuals
from diverse backgrounds, they gain rad-
ically different perspectives.
THINKING
•
The four patterns of action together help
innovators
associate
to cultivate new
insights.

Five “discovery skills” separate true innovators from the rest of us.
“How do I find innovative people for my
organization? And how can I become more
innovative myself ?”
These are questions that stump senior exec-
utives, who understand that the ability to
innovate is the “secret sauce” of business
success. Unfortunately, most of us know very
little about what makes one person more cre-
ative than another. Perhaps for this reason,

The quest for harmony and common goals can actually obstruct
teamwork. Managers get truly effective collaboration only when they
realize that conflict is natural and necessary.
The challenge is a long-standing one for senior
managers: How do you get people in your or-
ganization to work together across internal
boundaries? But the question has taken on ur-
gency in today’s global and fast-changing busi-
ness environment. To service multinational
accounts, you increasingly need seamless col-
laboration across geographic boundaries. To
improve customer satisfaction, you increas-
ingly need collaboration among functions
ranging from R&D to distribution. To offer so-
lutions tailored to customers’ needs, you in-
creasingly need collaboration between prod-
uct and service groups.
Meanwhile, as competitive pressures contin-
ually force companies to find ways to do more
with less, few managers have the luxury of re-
lying on their own dedicated staffs to accom-
plish their objectives. Instead, most must work
with and through people across the organiza-
tion, many of whom have different priorities,
incentives, and ways of doing things.
Getting collaboration right promises tre-
mendous benefits: a unified face to customers,
faster internal decision making, reduced costs
through shared resources, and the develop-
ment of more innovative products. But despite
the billions of dollars spent on initiatives to im-
prove collaboration, few companies are happy
with the results. Time and again we have seen
management teams employ the same few
strategies to boost internal cooperation. They
restructure their organizations and reengineer
their business processes. They create cross-unit
incentives. They offer teamwork training.
While such initiatives yield the occasional suc-
cess story, most of them have only limited im-
pact in dismantling organizational silos and
fostering collaboration—and many are total
failures. (See the sidebar “The Three Myths of
Collaboration.”)
So what’s the problem? Most companies re-

•
Too many business innovations are
launched on a wing and a prayer—de-
spite the fact that it’s now reasonable to
expect truly valid tests.
•
With a small investment in training,
readily available software, and the right
encouragement, an organization can
build a “test and learn” capability.
•
Companies that equip managers to per-
form small-scale yet rigorous experi-
ments don’t only save themselves from
expensive mistakes—they also make it
more likely that great ideas will see the
light of day.
You or someone on your team is suggesting a change that just might work. But why act on a
hunch when you can hold out for evidence? According to the author, the best way to support
decision making on potential innovations is to...
•
Design an experiment.
Start with a hypothesis about how the change
will help the business. If it’s a good one, you’ll
learn as much by disproving it as you would
by proving it. Put it to the test by measuring
what happens in a test group versus a control
group. From the outset, be clear on what you
need to measure to produce a decisive re-
sult—and whether that’s a metric you even
have the capability to track.
•
Act on the facts.
Nothing but a success in a testing environ-
ment should be rolled out more broadly. But
neither should failures simply be scrapped.
Refine the hypothesis on the basis of the re-
sults, and consider testing a variation. Most
important, capture what’s been learned, and
make it available to others in the organization
through a “learning library,” so resources aren’t
wasted proving the same thing again.
Example:
Marketers at the Subway restaurant chain
wanted to drum up business by putting
foot-long subs on sale for only $5, but fran-
chise owners worried that the promotion
would lure existing customers away from
higher-priced menu items. An experiment
pitting test sites against control sites
proved that the promotion would pay off—
which it subsequently did.
•
Make testing the norm.
Create the training and infrastructure that will
enable nonexperts in statistics to .

Struggling to stay ahead of your rivals? No
need. Instead of trying to match or beat
them on cost or quality, make the other
players irrelevant—by staking out new
market space where competitors haven’t
ventured.
How? Become a
value innovator
: identify
radical ideas that make quantum leaps in
the value you provide customers.
Value innovators ask, “What if we started
fresh—and forgot everything we know
about our industry’s existing rules and tra-
ditions?” When CNN’s creators asked this
question, they replaced the traditional net-
works’ format with real-time news from
around the world, 24 hours a day.
Value innovators don’t set out to build com-
petitive advantage. But their innovative
practices lead them to achieve precisely
that. Virgin Atlantic, for example, cut first-
class airline service and channeled cost sav-
ings into greater value for business-class
passengers: more comfortable seats and
free transportation to and from airports. It
attracted not only business-class customers
but also full-economy-fare and first-class
passengers of other airlines.
To become a value innovator, consider the fol-
lowing strategies, as exemplified by French
hotelier Accor:
Assume that you
can
shape your industry’s
conditions.
In the mid-1980s, the budget
hotel industry in France had two markets: in-
expensive hotels that had poor beds and
noise, and pricier hotels that provided upscale
amenities and a decent night’s sleep. Accor
redefined the industry by providing inexpen-
sive
and
superior accommodations to cost-
conscious travelers.
Focus on what the majority of your buyers
value.
Accor identified what customers of all
budget hotels wanted: a good night’s sleep
for a low price.
Consider how you might chang.

Out of 1,435
Fortune
500 companies that
renowned management researcher Jim
Collins studied, only 11 achieved and sus-
tained greatness—garnering stock returns
at least three times the market’s—for 15
years after a major transition period.
What did these 11 companies have in com-
mon? Each had a “Level 5” leader at the
helm.
Level 5 leaders blend the paradoxical com-
bination of
deep personal humility
with
intense professional will
. This rare combi-
nation also defies our assumptions about
what makes a great leader.
Celebrities like Lee Iacocca may make head-
lines. But mild-mannered, steely leaders like
Darwin Smith of Kimberly-Clark boost their
companies to greatness—and keep them
there.
Example:
Darwin Smith—CEO at paper-products
maker Kimberly-Clark from 1971 to
1991—epitomizes Level 5 leadership.
Shy, awkward, shunning attention, he
also showed iron will, determinedly rede-
fining the firm’s core business despite
Wall Street’s skepticism. The formerly
lackluster Kimberly-Clark became the
worldwide leader in its industry, generat-
ing stock returns 4.1 times greater than
the general market’s.
HUMILITY + WILL = LEVEL 5
How do Level 5 leaders manifest humility?
They routinely credit others, external factors,
and good luck for their companies’ success.
But when results are poor, they blame them-
selves. They also act quietly, calmly, and deter-
minedly—relying on inspired standards, not
inspiring charisma, to motivate.
Inspired standards demonstrate Level 5 lead-
ers’ unwavering will. Utterly intolerant of me-
diocrity,.

Women occupy 40% of all managerial posi-
tions in the United States. But only 6% of
the Fortune 500’s top executives are female.
And just 2% of those firms have women
CEOs.
We’ve long blamed such numbers on the
“glass ceiling,” the notion that women suc-
cessfully climb the corporate hierarchy until
they’re blocked just below the summit. But
the problem stems from discrimination op-
erating at all ranks, not just the top, say
Eagly and Carli.
Therefore, to move more women into your
company’s executive suite, you must attack
all barriers to advancement simulta-
neously. For example, prepare women for
line management with demanding assign-
ments. Use objective criteria to measure
performance. And give working mothers
additional time to prove themselves worthy
of promotion.
Women’s leadership style—characterized
by innovating, building trust and empower-
ing followers—is ideally suited to today’s
business challenges. Tackle the obstacles to
women’s progress, and you’ll increase your
firm’s competitive prowess.
Eagly and Carli recommend these strategies
for increasing the number of women in top
positions in your firm:
UNDERSTAND THE CAREER BARRIERS
WOMEN ENCOUNTER
Extensive academic and government research
studies identify these obstacles:
•
Prejudice:
Men are promoted more quickly
than women with equivalent qualifica-
tions, even in traditionally female settings
such as nursing and education.
• Resistance to women’s leadership: People
view successful female managers as more
deceitful, pushy, selfish, and abrasive than
successful male managers.
• Leadership style issues: Many female lead-
ers struggle to reconcile qualities people
prefer in women (compassion for others)
with qualities people think leaders need to
succeed (.

You know that to sustain long-term profit-
ability you must respond strategically to
competition. And you naturally keep tabs
on your
established rivals
. But as you scan
the competitive arena, are you also looking
beyond
your direct competitors? As Porter
explains in this update of his revolutionary
1979 HBR article, four additional competi-
tive forces can hurt your prospective profits:
•
Savvy
customers
can force down prices
by playing you and your rivals against
one another.
•
Powerful
suppliers
may constrain your
profits if they charge higher prices.
•
Aspiring
entrants
, armed with new ca-
pacity and hungry for market share, can
ratchet up the investment required for
you to stay in the game.
•
Substitute offerings
can lure customers
away.
Consider commercial aviation: It’s one of
the least profitable industries because all
five forces are strong.
Established rivals
compete intensely on price.
Customers
are
fickle, searching for the best deal regardless
of carrier.
Suppliers
—plane and engine
manufacturers, along with unionized labor
forces—bargain away the lion’s share of air-
lines’ profits.
New players
enter the indus-
try in a constant stream. And
substitutes
are readily available—such as train or car
travel.
By analyzing all five competitive forces, you
gain a complete picture of what’s influenc-
ing profitability in your industry. You iden-
tify game-changing trends early, so you can
swiftly exploit them. And you spot ways to
work around constraints on profitability—
or even reshape the forces in your favor.
By understanding how the five competitive forces influence profitability.

The habits of Steve Jobs, Jeff Bezos, and
other innovative CEOs reveal much about
the underpinnings of their creative think-
ing. Research shows that five discovery
skills distinguish the most innovative
entrepreneurs from other executives.
DOING
•
Questioning
allows innovators to break
out of the status quo and consider new
possibilities.
•
Through
observing
, innovators detect
small behavioral details—in the
activities of customers, suppliers, and
other companies—that suggest new
ways of doing things.
•
In
experimenting
, they relentlessly try on
new experiences and explore the world.
•
And through
networking
with individuals
from diverse backgrounds, they gain rad-
ically different perspectives.
THINKING
•
The four patterns of action together help
innovators
associate
to cultivate new
insights.

Five “discovery skills” separate true innovators from the rest of us.
“How do I find innovative people for my
organization? And how can I become more
innovative myself ?”
These are questions that stump senior exec-
utives, who understand that the ability to
innovate is the “secret sauce” of business
success. Unfortunately, most of us know very
little about what makes one person more cre-
ative than another. Perhaps for this reason,

The quest for harmony and common goals can actually obstruct
teamwork. Managers get truly effective collaboration only when they
realize that conflict is natural and necessary.
The challenge is a long-standing one for senior
managers: How do you get people in your or-
ganization to work together across internal
boundaries? But the question has taken on ur-
gency in today’s global and fast-changing busi-
ness environment. To service multinational
accounts, you increasingly need seamless col-
laboration across geographic boundaries. To
improve customer satisfaction, you increas-
ingly need collaboration among functions
ranging from R&D to distribution. To offer so-
lutions tailored to customers’ needs, you in-
creasingly need collaboration between prod-
uct and service groups.
Meanwhile, as competitive pressures contin-
ually force companies to find ways to do more
with less, few managers have the luxury of re-
lying on their own dedicated staffs to accom-
plish their objectives. Instead, most must work
with and through people across the organiza-
tion, many of whom have different priorities,
incentives, and ways of doing things.
Getting collaboration right promises tre-
mendous benefits: a unified face to customers,
faster internal decision making, reduced costs
through shared resources, and the develop-
ment of more innovative products. But despite
the billions of dollars spent on initiatives to im-
prove collaboration, few companies are happy
with the results. Time and again we have seen
management teams employ the same few
strategies to boost internal cooperation. They
restructure their organizations and reengineer
their business processes. They create cross-unit
incentives. They offer teamwork training.
While such initiatives yield the occasional suc-
cess story, most of them have only limited im-
pact in dismantling organizational silos and
fostering collaboration—and many are total
failures. (See the sidebar “The Three Myths of
Collaboration.”)
So what’s the problem? Most companies re-

•
Too many business innovations are
launched on a wing and a prayer—de-
spite the fact that it’s now reasonable to
expect truly valid tests.
•
With a small investment in training,
readily available software, and the right
encouragement, an organization can
build a “test and learn” capability.
•
Companies that equip managers to per-
form small-scale yet rigorous experi-
ments don’t only save themselves from
expensive mistakes—they also make it
more likely that great ideas will see the
light of day.
You or someone on your team is suggesting a change that just might work. But why act on a
hunch when you can hold out for evidence? According to the author, the best way to support
decision making on potential innovations is to...
•
Design an experiment.
Start with a hypothesis about how the change
will help the business. If it’s a good one, you’ll
learn as much by disproving it as you would
by proving it. Put it to the test by measuring
what happens in a test group versus a control
group. From the outset, be clear on what you
need to measure to produce a decisive re-
sult—and whether that’s a metric you even
have the capability to track.
•
Act on the facts.
Nothing but a success in a testing environ-
ment should be rolled out more broadly. But
neither should failures simply be scrapped.
Refine the hypothesis on the basis of the re-
sults, and consider testing a variation. Most
important, capture what’s been learned, and
make it available to others in the organization
through a “learning library,” so resources aren’t
wasted proving the same thing again.
Example:
Marketers at the Subway restaurant chain
wanted to drum up business by putting
foot-long subs on sale for only $5, but fran-
chise owners worried that the promotion
would lure existing customers away from
higher-priced menu items. An experiment
pitting test sites against control sites
proved that the promotion would pay off—
which it subsequently did.

Struggling to stay ahead of your rivals? No
need. Instead of trying to match or beat
them on cost or quality, make the other
players irrelevant—by staking out new
market space where competitors haven’t
ventured.
How? Become a
value innovator
: identify
radical ideas that make quantum leaps in
the value you provide customers.
Value innovators ask, “What if we started
fresh—and forgot everything we know
about our industry’s existing rules and tra-
ditions?” When CNN’s creators asked this
question, they replaced the traditional net-
works’ format with real-time news from
around the world, 24 hours a day.
Value innovators don’t set out to build com-
petitive advantage. But their innovative
practices lead them to achieve precisely
that. Virgin Atlantic, for example, cut first-
class airline service and channeled cost sav-
ings into greater value for business-class
passengers: more comfortable seats and
free transportation to and from airports. It
attracted not only business-class customers
but also full-economy-fare and first-class
passengers of other airlines.
To become a value innovator, consider the fol-
lowing strategies, as exemplified by French
hotelier Accor:
Assume that you
can
shape your industry’s
conditions.
In the mid-1980s, the budget
hotel industry in France had two markets: in-
expensive hotels that had poor beds and
noise, and pricier hotels that provided upscale
amenities and a decent night’s sleep. Accor
redefined the industry by providing inexpen-
sive
and
superior accommodations to cost-
conscious travelers.
Focus on what the majority of your buyers
value.
Accor identified what customers of all
budget hotels wanted: a good night’s sleep
for a low price.
Consider how you might chang.

Out of 1,435
Fortune
500 companies that
renowned management researcher Jim
Collins studied, only 11 achieved and sus-
tained greatness—garnering stock returns
at least three times the market’s—for 15
years after a major transition period.
What did these 11 companies have in com-
mon? Each had a “Level 5” leader at the
helm.
Level 5 leaders blend the paradoxical com-
bination of
deep personal humility
with
intense professional will
. This rare combi-
nation also defies our assumptions about
what makes a great leader.
Celebrities like Lee Iacocca may make head-
lines. But mild-mannered, steely leaders like
Darwin Smith of Kimberly-Clark boost their
companies to greatness—and keep them
there.
Example:
Darwin Smith—CEO at paper-products
maker Kimberly-Clark from 1971 to
1991—epitomizes Level 5 leadership.
Shy, awkward, shunning attention, he
also showed iron will, determinedly rede-
fining the firm’s core business despite
Wall Street’s skepticism. The formerly
lackluster Kimberly-Clark became the
worldwide leader in its industry, generat-
ing stock returns 4.1 times greater than
the general market’s.
HUMILITY + WILL = LEVEL 5
How do Level 5 leaders manifest humility?
They routinely credit others, external factors,
and good luck for their companies’ success.
But when results are poor, they blame them-
selves. They also act quietly, calmly, and deter-
minedly—relying on inspired standards, not
inspiring charisma, to motivate.
Inspired standards demonstrate Level 5 lead-
ers’ unwavering will. Utterly intolerant of me-
diocrity,.

What presents your company with its
toughest challenges? Shifting markets?
Stiffening competition? Emerging tech-
nologies? When such challenges intensify,
you may need to reclarify corporate values,
redesign strategies, merge or dissolve busi-
nesses, or manage cross-functional strife.
These
adaptive challenges
are murky,
systemic problems with no easy answers.
Perhaps even more vexing, the solutions
to adaptive challenges
don’t
reside in the
executive suite. Solving them requires the
involvement of people
throughout
your
organization.
Adaptive work is tough on everyone. For
leaders
, it’s counterintuitive. Rather than
providing solutions, you must ask tough
questions and leverage employees’ collec-
tive intelligence. Instead of maintaining
norms, you must challenge the “way we do
business.” And rather than quelling conflict,
you need to draw issues out and let people
feel the sting of reality.
For your
employees
, adaptive work is painful—
requiring unfamiliar roles, responsibilities,
values, and ways of working. No wonder
employees often try to lob adaptive work
back to their leaders.
How to ensure that you
and
your employees
embrace the challenges of adaptive work?
Applying the following six principles will help.
1. Get on the balcony.
Don’t get swept up in
the field of play. Instead, move back and forth
between the “action” and the “balcony.” You’ll
spot emerging patterns, such as power strug-
gles or work avoidance. This high-level per-
spective helps you mobilize people to do
adaptive work.
2. Identify your adaptive challenge.
Example:
When British Airways’ passengers nick-
named it “Bloody Awful,” CEO Colin Marshall
knew he had to infuse the company with a
dedication to customers. He identified the
adaptive chall.

Everyone knows that being fair costs little and pays off handsomely.
Then why do so few executives manage to behave fairly, even though
most want to?
When Company A had to downsize, it spent
considerable amounts of money providing a
safety net for its laid-off workers. The severance
package consisted of many weeks of pay, exten-
sive outplacement counseling, and the continu-
ation of health insurance for up to one year.
But senior managers never explained to their
staff why these layoffs were necessary or how
they chose which jobs to eliminate. What’s
more, the midlevel line managers who deliv-
ered the news to terminated employees did so
awkwardly, mumbling a few perfunctory words
about “not wanting to do this” and then hand-
ing them off to the human resources depart-
ment. Even the people who kept their jobs
were less than thrilled about the way things
were handled. Many of them heard the news
while driving home on Friday and had to wait
until Monday to learn that their jobs were se-
cure. Nine months later, the company contin-
ued to sputter. Not only did it have to absorb
enormous legal costs defending against wrong-
ful termination suits, but it also had to make
another round of layoffs, in large part because
employee productivity and morale plummeted
after the first round was mishandled.
When Company B downsized, by contrast, it
didn’t offer nearly as generous a severance
package. But senior managers there explained
the strategic purpose of the layoffs multiple
times before they were implemented, and ex-
ecutives and middle managers alike made
themselves available to answer questions and
express regret both to those who lost their jobs
and to those who remained. Line managers
worked with HR to tell people that their jobs
were being eliminated, and they expressed
genuine concern while doing so. As a result,
virtually none of the laid-off employees filed a
wrongful termination lawsuit. Workers took
some time to adjust to the loss of their former
colleagues, but they understood why the lay-
offs had happened. And within nine months,
Company B’s performance was better than it
had been before the layoffs .

Abstract
In this paper the need for a rational treatment of uncertainties in structural mechanics and analysis is reasoned. It is shown that the
traditional deterministic conception can be easily extended by applying statistical and probabilistic concepts. The so-called Monte Carlo
simulation procedure is the key for those developments, as it allows the straightforward use of the currently used deterministic analysis
procedures.
A numerical example exemplifies the methodology. It is concluded that uncertainty analysis may ensure robust predictions of vari-
ability, model verification, safety assessment, etc.

1. Introduction
Structural mechanics analysis up to this date, generally is
still based on a deterministic conception. Observed varia-
tions in loading conditions, material properties, geometry,
etc. are taken into account by either selecting extremely
high, low or average values, respectively, for representing
the parameters. Hence, this way, uncertainties inherent in
almost every analysis process are considered just intuitively.
Observations and measurements of physical processes,
however, show not only variability, but also random char-
acteristics. Statistical and probabilistic procedures provide
a sound frame work for a rational treatment of analysis
of these uncertainties. Moreover there are various types of
uncertainties to be dealt with. While the uncertainties in
mechanical modeling can be reduced as additional knowl-
edge becomes available, the physical or intrinsic uncertain-
ties, e.g. of environmental loading, can not. Furthermore,

the entire spectrum of uncertainties is also not known. In
reality, neither the true model nor the model parameters
are deterministically known. Assuming that by finite ele-
ment (FE) procedures structures and continua can be repre-
sented reasonably well the question of the effect of the
discretization still remains. It is generally expected, that
an increase in the size of the structural models, in terms of
degrees of freedom, will increase the level of realism of the
model. Comparisons with measurements, however, clearly
show that this expect.

The main objective of Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy is to expand the
range, variety, and quality of texts in the history of philosophy which are available in
English. The series includes texts by familiar names (such as Descartes and Kant) and also
by less well-known authors. Wherever possible, texts are published in complete and
unabridged form, and translations are specially commissioned for the series. Each volume
contains a critical introduction together with a guide to further reading and any necessary
glossaries and textual apparatus. The volumes are designed for student use at under-
graduate and postgraduate level, and will be of interest not only to students of philosophy
but also to a wider audience of readers in the history of science, the history of theology,
and the history of ideas.
For a list of titles published in the series, please see end of book.

ESSA creates
flexibility allowing
states and
schools to more
fully explore and
leverage the arts in
K-12 teaching and
learning.
Research
indicates that
deeper learning
skills contribute
significantly
to a student’s
college, career

readiness.
Thirty years ago, in response to a K-12
public education system defined by
mediocrity1, with low student test scores
and widening gaps in achievement, the
accountability movement was born.
Federal and state education policies
focused on raising standards and
regularly assessing students. However,
over the years, many policymakers
and the public observed a connection
between the accountability movement
and an overemphasis on testing in
core subjects, such as English and
math, a narrowing of curricula and the
elimination of many important subjects,
including the arts.
Arts education
fosters critical deeper
learning skills, such
as collaboration and
perseverance, in
students.
Yet, research consistently shows that
arts education and the integration of
the arts into core subjects can have
dramatic effects on student success
— defined not just by student test
scores, but also critical skills, such as
creativity, teamwork and perseverance.
Research indicates that these skills
can be as effective predictors of long-
term success in college, careers and
citizenship as test scores.2,3
The Every Student Succeeds Act
(ESSA), which passed in late 2015, is
the first major federal law in more than
30 years offering states a significant
degree of flexibility to broaden —
rather than narrow — curricula, and
strongly encourages states to ensure all
students have access to a well-rounded
education, which includes the arts
and music.4 Armed with the evidence

through the arts can have on student

incentive to take advantage of the flexibility awarded
under ESSA related to the arts.

THEME: Leading with Love
Andreas J. Kӧstenberger & David Crowther
Introduction
At the outset of this chapter, it should be frankly acknowledged that the Johannine Letters were not originally intended primarily to provide a theology of leadership. Nevertheless, a closer examination of these three letters reveals the way in which the author relates to and provides leadership for the people in the congregations to which the letters are written. The author’s relationship with his recipients in these three letters does not directly correspond to a modern model of leadership because of his unique role in the churches to which he is writing. Yet his faithful and caring relationship can provide an example to Christian leaders in every age. In order to grasp the lessons on leadership in the Johannine Epistles, one must consider the identity of the author of these letters, the source of his authority, his relationship with his audience, and the nature of the conflict addressed in his third letter.
Original Setting
The Authorship of the Letters
The author of 1, 2 and 3 John is never named except for the title “elder” in 2 and 3 John. The early church accepted all three letters into the canon in the belief that John the apostle, the son of Zebedee, was the author.[1] While the author of these letters was doubtless known to his initial readers, the modern reader is indebted to the early church for preserving the tradition of authorship. Sources from the late second and early third centuries, such as the Muratorian Fragment (c. ad 180) and church fathers Tertullian (c. ad 160–215) and Clement of Alexandria (c. ad 155–220), ascribe authorship to John the son of Zebedee.
However, not only the external but also the internal evidence points to Johannine authorship. First, in 1 John 1:1–4 the author claims to be an eyewitness of Jesus. Although the first-person plural reference (“we”) in the author’s description of what he has heard, seen, and touched may include his audience because they share in the tradition that was handed down (alternatively, the reference is to the apostles; cf. John 1:14; 2:11), there is a clear distinction between the author and his recipients with regard to their firsthand knowledge of Jesus (cf.1 John 1:2–3). While the author may use the first-person plural reference to identify with his audience, 1 John 1:1–2 indicates that the author is a personal eyewitness of the incarnate Christ.[2]
Second, all three of the Johannine letters contain similar vocabulary, style, and theology. In fact, the relationship between the letters is so strong that the majority of modern scholars view them as coming from one author—albeit not all agree that their author is the same as the author of the Fourth Gospel.[3] For instance, among the Johannine letters one can identify a common background in which itinerant teachers with competing theological agendas threatened the confession of the Johannine churches.[4] In response to such threa.

WSJ Executive Adviser (A Special Report): The
Case Against Corporate Social Responsibility:
The idea that companies have a duty to address
social ills is not just flawed, argues Aneel
Karnani; It also makes it more likely that we'll
ignore the real solutions to these problems
Karnani, Aneel . Wall Street Journal , Eastern edition; New York, N.Y. [New York, N.Y]23 Aug 2010: R.1.
ProQuest document link
ABSTRACT
[...] the fact is that while companies sometimes can do well by doing good, more often they can't. Because in most
cases, doing what's best for society means sacrificing profits.
FULL TEXT
Can companies do well by doing good? Yes -- sometimes.
But the idea that companies have a responsibility to act in the public interest and will profit from doing so is
fundamentally flawed.
Large companies now routinely claim that they aren't in business just for the profits, that they're also intent on
serving some larger social purpose. They trumpet their efforts to produce healthier foods or more fuel-efficient
vehicles, conserve energy and other resources in their operations, or otherwise make the world a better place.
Influential institutions like the Academy of Management and the United Nations, among many others, encourage
companies to pursue such strategies.
It's not surprising that this idea has won over so many people -- it's a very appealing proposition. You can have
your cake and eat it too!
But it's an illusion, and a potentially dangerous one.
Very simply, in cases where private profits and public interests are aligned, the idea of corporate social
responsibility is irrelevant: Companies that simply do everything they can to boost profits will end up increasing
social welfare. In circumstances in which profits and social welfare are in direct opposition, an appeal to corporate
social responsibility will almost always be ineffective, because executives are unlikely to act voluntarily in the
public interest and against shareholder interests.
Irrelevant or ineffective, take your pick. But it's worse than that. The danger is that a focus on social responsibility
will delay or discourage more-effective measures to enhance social welfare in those cases where profits and the
public good are at odds. As society looks to companies to address these problems, the real solutions may be
ignored.

To get a better fix on the irrelevance or ineffectiveness of corporate social responsibility efforts, let's first look at
situations where profits and social welfare are in synch.
Consider the market for healthier food. Fast-food outlets have profited by expanding their offerings to include
salads and other options designed to appeal to health-conscious consu.
WRTG 293 students, Your first writing assignment will be .docx
WRTG 293 students,
Your first writing assignment will be to rewrite a set of instructions. The scenario for this
assignment is described below.
________________________
You have just taken a position as a student worker for the Communications Arts Department at
Anderson College. You began your job last week.
Anderson College has an enrollment of 10,000 students. Among this student population, 20% of
the students are international students for whom English is not a native language, 10% of the
students are dual-enrollment high school students, 20% of the students are graduate students, and
the remaining 50% of the student population consists of a mixture of adult learners and
traditional students.
Anderson adopted LEO as its learning management system two years ago. Anderson uses LEO
for both its online classes and its hybrid classes.
Since moving to LEO, Dr. Richard Johnson, Dean of the Undergraduate School at Anderson, and
Dr. Lynn Peterson, Dean of the Graduate School at Anderson, have noticed that both students
taking classes at Anderson and instructors teaching at Anderson are often not aware of the
different settings one can choose to view discussions in LEO. This lack of awareness has caused
confusion and frustration as students and faculty members have attempted to navigate through
the discussions in their classes.
Dr. Johnson and Dr. Peterson tried to address this problem two months ago. At that time, they
asked the previous student worker to write instructions on how to change the settings for
discussions in LEO for the optimal viewing arrangement.
The previous student worker wrote some instructions. However, the worker wrote them very
unprofessionally and poorly. They cannot be distributed to students in their current form.
Moreover, shortly after the student worker finished the instructions, he left his position for
another job.
As a result, Anderson College now has a set of poorly designed instructions that it cannot send
out to students and faculty members. Meanwhile, students and faculty members are still
experiencing frustration with the system, and they need a document that guides them through
how to adjust their settings in LEO for viewing discussions.
Dr. Johnson, who is your immediate supervisor, has now asked you, the new student worker, to
rewrite the instructions that the previous student worker wrote. He has asked you to use the
same graphics the previous student worker used. He has also suggested that you use arrows to
point to sections of the graphics if such arrows can help in understanding specific steps in the
instructions.
Keep in mind that potentially 10,000 students will be using the instructions, in addition to
various faculty members. The instructions should be clear, professional, and well designed.
Moreover, you will want to consider the different types of students at Anderson College,
including their backgrounds and their var.

Victoria Williams has been employed by TEDCO for 3 years. During that time, she has been an exemplary employee, repeatedly receiving the honor of being named employee of the month. TEDCO has 150 employees, 47 of them female, yet none of its female employees have young children. However, several of the male employees have young children. TEDCO provides health insurance and disability insurance for all full time employees. Victoria told a co-worker that she was pregnant. The co-workers warned her not to tell her supervisor, Brian. Victoria told Brian anyway, informing him that she intended to take 3 months off after she had the baby. Brian didn't like having pregnant women on his team. He thought they became inefficient, missed work due to "morning sickness" and to attend doctor's appointments, and were more emotional than non-pregnant workers. Furthermore, he didn't want Victoria to return to work after the baby was born because he didn't want to deal with the hassle of having an employee with a young child and all the potential issues that go along with it. Brian started to criticize Victoria's performance, claiming that her work was substandard and that she was not a productive member of the team. Brian fired Victoria in her 6th month of pregnancy. She found out later that Brian had fired another employee when she told him she was pregnant. Does Victoria have a valid claim for pregnancy discrimination against TEDCO? Explain the reasons for your answer. Does Victoria have a valid claim based on Brian's attitude towards women with young children? Again, explain your answer.

What presents your company with its
toughest challenges? Shifting markets?
Stiffening competition? Emerging tech-
nologies? When such challenges intensify,
you may need to reclarify corporate values,
redesign strategies, merge or dissolve busi-
nesses, or manage cross-functional strife.
These
adaptive challenges
are murky,
systemic problems with no easy answers.
Perhaps even more vexing, the solutions
to adaptive challenges
don’t
reside in the
executive suite. Solving them requires the
involvement of people
throughout
your
organization.
Adaptive work is tough on everyone. For
leaders
, it’s counterintuitive. Rather than
providing solutions, you must ask tough
questions and leverage employees’ collec-
tive intelligence. Instead of maintaining
norms, you must challenge the “way we do
business.” And rather than quelling conflict,
you need to draw issues out and let people
feel the sting of reality.
For your
employees
, adaptive work is painful—
requiring unfamiliar roles, responsibilities,
values, and ways of working. No wonder
employees often try to lob adaptive work
back to their leaders.
How to ensure that you
and
your employees
embrace the challenges of adaptive work?
Applying the following six principles will help.
1. Get on the balcony.
Don’t get swept up in
the field of play. Instead, move back and forth
between the “action” and the “balcony.” You’ll
spot emerging patterns, such as power strug-
gles or work avoidance. This high-level per-
spective helps you mobilize people to do
adaptive work.

Everyone knows that being fair costs little and pays off handsomely.
Then why do so few executives manage to behave fairly, even though
most want to?
When Company A had to downsize, it spent
considerable amounts of money providing a
safety net for its laid-off workers. The severance
package consisted of many weeks of pay, exten-
sive outplacement counseling, and the continu-
ation of health insurance for up to one year.
But senior managers never explained to their
staff why these layoffs were necessary or how
they chose which jobs to eliminate. What’s
more, the midlevel line managers who deliv-
ered the news to terminated employees did so
awkwardly, mumbling a few perfunctory words
about “not wanting to do this” and then hand-
ing them off to the human resources depart-
ment. Even the people who kept their jobs
were less than thrilled about the way things
were handled. Many of them heard the news
while driving home on Friday and had to wait
until Monday to learn that their jobs were se-
cure. Nine months later, the company contin-
ued to sputter. Not only did it have to absorb
enormous legal costs defending against wrong-
ful termination suits, but it also had to make
another round of layoffs, in large part because
employee productivity and morale plummeted
after the first round was mishandled.
When Company B downsized, by contrast, it
didn’t offer nearly as generous a severance
package. But senior managers there explained
the strategic purpose of the layoffs multiple
times before they were implemented, and ex-
ecutives and middle managers alike made
themselves available to answer questions and
express regret both to those who lost their jobs
and to those who remained. Line managers
worked with HR to tell people that their jobs
were being eliminated, and they expressed
genuine concern while doing so. As a result,
virtually none of the laid-off employees filed a
wrongful termination lawsuit. Workers took
some time to adjust to the loss of their former
colleagues, but they understood why the lay-
offs had happened. And within nine months,
Company B’s performance was better than it
had been before the layoffs .

Abstract
In this paper the need for a rational treatment of uncertainties in structural mechanics and analysis is reasoned. It is shown that the
traditional deterministic conception can be easily extended by applying statistical and probabilistic concepts. The so-called Monte Carlo
simulation procedure is the key for those developments, as it allows the straightforward use of the currently used deterministic analysis
procedures.
A numerical example exemplifies the methodology. It is concluded that uncertainty analysis may ensure robust predictions of vari-
ability, model verification, safety assessment, etc.

1. Introduction
Structural mechanics analysis up to this date, generally is
still based on a deterministic conception. Observed varia-
tions in loading conditions, material properties, geometry,
etc. are taken into account by either selecting extremely
high, low or average values, respectively, for representing
the parameters. Hence, this way, uncertainties inherent in
almost every analysis process are considered just intuitively.
Observations and measurements of physical processes,
however, show not only variability, but also random char-
acteristics. Statistical and probabilistic procedures provide
a sound frame work for a rational treatment of analysis
of these uncertainties. Moreover there are various types of
uncertainties to be dealt with. While the uncertainties in
mechanical modeling can be reduced as additional knowl-
edge becomes available, the physical or intrinsic uncertain-
ties, e.g. of environmental loading, can not. Furthermore,

the entire spectrum of uncertainties is also not known. In
reality, neither the true model nor the model parameters
are deterministically known. Assuming that by finite ele-
ment (FE) procedures structures and continua can be repre-
sented reasonably well the question of the effect of the
discretization still remains. It is generally expected, that
an increase in the size of the structural models, in terms of
degrees of freedom, will increase the level of realism of the
model. Comparisons with measurements, however, clearly
show that this expect.

The main objective of Cambridge Texts in the History of Philosophy is to expand the
range, variety, and quality of texts in the history of philosophy which are available in
English. The series includes texts by familiar names (such as Descartes and Kant) and also
by less well-known authors. Wherever possible, texts are published in complete and
unabridged form, and translations are specially commissioned for the series. Each volume
contains a critical introduction together with a guide to further reading and any necessary
glossaries and textual apparatus. The volumes are designed for student use at under-
graduate and postgraduate level, and will be of interest not only to students of philosophy
but also to a wider audience of readers in the history of science, the history of theology,
and the history of ideas.

states and

leverage the arts in
K-12 teaching and

Research

Thirty years ago, in response to a K-12
public education system defined by
mediocrity1, with low student test scores
and widening gaps in achievement, the
accountability movement was born.
Federal and state education policies
focused on raising standards and
regularly assessing students. However,
over the years, many policymakers
and the public observed a connection
between the accountability movement
and an overemphasis on testing in
core subjects, such as English and
math, a narrowing of curricula and the
elimination of many important subjects,
including the arts.
Arts education
fosters critical deeper
learning skills, such
as collaboration and
perseverance, in
students.
Yet, research consistently shows that
arts education and the integration of
the arts into core subjects can have
dramatic effects on student success
— defined not just by student test
scores, but also critical skills, such as
creativity, teamwork and perseverance.
Research indicates that these skills
can be as effective predictors of long-
term success in college, careers and
citizenship as test scores.2,3
The Every Student Succeeds Act
(ESSA), which passed in late 2015, is
the first major federal law in more than
30 years offering states a significant
degree of flexibility to broaden —
rather than narrow — curricula, and
strongly encourages states to ensure all
students have access to a well-rounded
education, which includes the arts
and music.4 Armed with the evidence

Introduction
At the outset of this chapter, it should be frankly acknowledged that the Johannine Letters were not originally intended primarily to provide a theology of leadership. Nevertheless, a closer examination of these three letters reveals the way in which the author relates to and provides leadership for the people in the congregations to which the letters are written. The author’s relationship with his recipients in these three letters does not directly correspond to a modern model of leadership because of his unique role in the churches to which he is writing. Yet his faithful and caring relationship can provide an example to Christian leaders in every age. In order to grasp the lessons on leadership in the Johannine Epistles, one must consider the identity of the author of these letters, the source of his authority, his relationship with his audience, and the nature of the conflict addressed in his third letter.
Original Setting
The Authorship of the Letters
The author of 1, 2 and 3 John is never named except for the title “elder” in 2 and 3 John. The early church accepted all three letters into the canon in the belief that John the apostle, the son of Zebedee, was the author.[1] While the author of these letters was doubtless known to his initial readers, the modern reader is indebted to the early church for preserving the tradition of authorship. Sources from the late second and early third centuries, such as the Muratorian Fragment (c. ad 180) and church fathers Tertullian (c. ad 160–215) and Clement of Alexandria (c. ad 155–220), ascribe authorship to John the son of Zebedee.
However, not only the external but also the internal evidence points to Johannine authorship. First, in 1 John 1:1–4 the author claims to be an eyewitness of Jesus. Although the first-person plural reference (“we”) in the author’s description of what he has heard, seen, and touched may include his audience because they share in the tradition that was handed down (alternatively, the reference is to the apostles; cf. John 1:14; 2:11), there is a clear distinction between the author and his recipients with regard to their firsthand knowledge of Jesus (cf.1 John 1:2–3). While the author may use the first-person plural reference to identify with his audience, 1 John 1:1–2 indicates that the author is a personal eyewitness of the incarnate Christ.[2]
Second, all three of the Johannine letters contain similar vocabulary, style, and theology. In fact, the relationship between the letters is so strong that the majority of modern scholars view them as coming from one author—albeit not all agree that their author is the same as the author of the Fourth Gospel.[3] For instance, among the Johannine letters one can identify a common background in which itinerant teachers with competing theological agendas threatened the confession of the Johannine churches.[4] In response to such threa.

Case Against Corporate Social Responsibility:
The idea that companies have a duty to address
social ills is not just flawed, argues Aneel
Karnani; It also makes it more likely that we'll
ignore the real solutions to these problems

ABSTRACT
[...] the fact is that while companies sometimes can do well by doing good, more often they can't. Because in most
cases, doing what's best for society means sacrificing profits.
FULL TEXT
Can companies do well by doing good? Yes -- sometimes.
But the idea that companies have a responsibility to act in the public interest and will profit from doing so is
fundamentally flawed.
Large companies now routinely claim that they aren't in business just for the profits, that they're also intent on
serving some larger social purpose. They trumpet their efforts to produce healthier foods or more fuel-efficient
vehicles, conserve energy and other resources in their operations, or otherwise make the world a better place.
Influential institutions like the Academy of Management and the United Nations, among many others, encourage
companies to pursue such strategies.
It's not surprising that this idea has won over so many people -- it's a very appealing proposition. You can have
your cake and eat it too!
But it's an illusion, and a potentially dangerous one.
Very simply, in cases where private profits and public interests are aligned, the idea of corporate social
responsibility is irrelevant: Companies that simply do everything they can to boost profits will end up increasing
social welfare. In circumstances in which profits and social welfare are in direct opposition, an appeal to corporate
social responsibility will almost always be ineffective, because executives are unlikely to act voluntarily in the
public interest and against shareholder interests.
Irrelevant or ineffective, take your pick. But it's worse than that. The danger is that a focus on social responsibility
will delay or discourage more-effective measures to enhance social welfare in those cases where profits and the
public good are at odds. As society looks to companies to address these problems, the real solutions may be
ignored.

To get a better fix on the irrelevance or ineffectiveness of corporate social responsibility efforts, let's first look at
situations where profits and social welfare are in synch.
Consider the market for healthier food. Fast-food outlets have profited by expanding their offerings to include
salads and other options designed to appeal to health-conscious consu.
WRTG 293 students, Your first writing assignment will be .docx
WRTG 293 students,
Your first writing assignment will be to rewrite a set of instructions. The scenario for this
assignment is described below.
________________________
You have just taken a position as a student worker for the Communications Arts Department at
Anderson College. You began your job last week.
Anderson College has an enrollment of 10,000 students. Among this student population, 20% of
the students are international students for whom English is not a native language, 10% of the
students are dual-enrollment high school students, 20% of the students are graduate students, and
the remaining 50% of the student population consists of a mixture of adult learners and
traditional students.
Anderson adopted LEO as its learning management system two years ago. Anderson uses LEO
for both its online classes and its hybrid classes.
Since moving to LEO, Dr. Richard Johnson, Dean of the Undergraduate School at Anderson, and
Dr. Lynn Peterson, Dean of the Graduate School at Anderson, have noticed that both students
taking classes at Anderson and instructors teaching at Anderson are often not aware of the
different settings one can choose to view discussions in LEO. This lack of awareness has caused
confusion and frustration as students and faculty members have attempted to navigate through
the discussions in their classes.
Dr. Johnson and Dr. Peterson tried to address this problem two months ago. At that time, they
asked the previous student worker to write instructions on how to change the settings for
discussions in LEO for the optimal viewing arrangement.
The previous student worker wrote some instructions. However, the worker wrote them very
unprofessionally and poorly. They cannot be distributed to students in their current form.
Moreover, shortly after the student worker finished the instructions, he left his position for
another job.
As a result, Anderson College now has a set of poorly designed instructions that it cannot send
out to students and faculty members. Meanwhile, students and faculty members are still
experiencing frustration with the system, and they need a document that guides them through
how to adjust their settings in LEO for viewing discussions.
Dr. Johnson, who is your immediate supervisor, has now asked you, the new student worker, to
rewrite the instructions that the previous student worker wrote. He has asked you to use the
same graphics the previous student worker used. He has also suggested that you use arrows to
point to sections of the graphics if such arrows can help in understanding specific steps in the
instructions.
Keep in mind that potentially 10,000 students will be using the instructions, in addition to
various faculty members. The instructions should be clear, professional, and well designed.
Moreover, you will want to consider the different types of students at Anderson College,
including their backgrounds and their var.

Victoria Williams has been employed by TEDCO for 3 years. During that time, she has been an exemplary employee, repeatedly receiving the honor of being named employee of the month. TEDCO has 150 employees, 47 of them female, yet none of its female employees have young children. However, several of the male employees have young children. TEDCO provides health insurance and disability insurance for all full time employees. Victoria told a co-worker that she was pregnant. The co-workers warned her not to tell her supervisor, Brian. Victoria told Brian anyway, informing him that she intended to take 3 months off after she had the baby. Brian didn't like having pregnant women on his team. He thought they became inefficient, missed work due to "morning sickness" and to attend doctor's appointments, and were more emotional than non-pregnant workers. Furthermore, he didn't want Victoria to return to work after the baby was born because he didn't want to deal with the hassle of having an employee with a young child and all the potential issues that go along with it. Brian started to criticize Victoria's performance, claiming that her work was substandard and that she was not a productive member of the team. Brian fired Victoria in her 6th month of pregnancy. She found out later that Brian had fired another employee when she told him she was pregnant. Does Victoria have a valid claim for pregnancy discrimination against TEDCO? Explain the reasons for your answer. Does Victoria have a valid claim based on Brian's attitude towards women with young children? Again, explain your answer.

Introduction to Quality Improvement Essentials
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.

He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

How to Break the cycle of negative Thoughts
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
