    I agree that William Bradford set the foundation of responsibility for American success and inspires young and old to promote the value of responsibility and personal freedom. Bradford creates this foundation of responsibility and inspires people to promote the value of responsibility and freedom because of his leadership, leadership qualities, and through the journey he faced coming into the New World - all evidenced in his narrative, “Of Plymouths Plantation.” Bradford’s leadership qualities led to the creation of a foundation of responsibility for American success. The word “leadership” is not only defined by his proven excellence as a leader, but just how his leadership created a legacy to build something as strong as a foundation for our country's success. Bradford was governor of Plymouth for thirty, one year terms and his Pilgrims described him as an open minded and thorough…

    As men and women made the long, harrowing journey across the Atlantic to the unknown, unwelcoming lands of the New World, religion to many of these pioneers was the only means to find comfort and hope amid battering waves and wicked cases of seasickness. William Bradford and John Smith were no different: religion was their guiding light, both consciously and subconsciously, in their settling of the New World. Despite the differences in Bradford and Smith’s approaches to recounting their histories of settling, both Bradford and Smith demonstrate through their prose and dealings with the Native peoples that religion was the most important aspect in all of their decisions; and in turn illuminate religion to be of the greatest values of European…

    In this scenario conflict from role ambiguity can be reduced simply by setting specific tasks for every member of the organization. Peter Smith should only have been focusing on providing emotional support to the members of the organization. He should have had nothing to do with any financial decisions because he is not qualified for that task. Both Peter Smith and Keith Schmidt should have taken an integrative approach and focused “on commonalties rather than differences” (“Lewicki, R. & Barry, B.”, 2011). The commonalities would have been a clear passion for the organization, and the need to expand the museum in order to share their love of art with more members of the local community.…
