In fact, we often repeat some of the same types of behaviors when dealing with various bosses throughout our working life. Identifying the underlying pattern to your way of dealing with your boss or bosses can help you to improve the ways in which you influence upwards, and can ultimately

    During my year of study at the prestigious Army Command and General Staff College, the one attribute sub-element I wish to improve during my year of study is, “Presence, Professional Bearing”. As time progresses and I become more observant, I continue to question and ponder the many attributes, competencies, and values that create an extraordinary leader. Was it the leader who kept everything contained and went with the flow; The Yes Man? Was it the leader who was outspoken; created upheaval and made others think? Or was it the leader that poised themselves in the middle; played it safe?…

    Jamel Diagnostic Impression Based upon the teacher and parent’s observations, Jamel is apparently having some problems staying focused on tasks at hand including schoolwork, therefore his grades are suffering as each year passes. Including a thorough assessment, both the teacher and parents’ observations are important to consider (Carr, 2014). Jamel is at risk of not passing the fifth grade. It is apparent he is unable to concentrate and becomes distracted easily, yet he lacks the hyperactivity often associated with ADHD (Hooley, Butcher, Nock, & Mineka, 2017). ADHD is characterized by a pattern of inattention, impetuousness, and the inability to sit still for an extended period (Hooley, Butcher, Nock, & Mineka, 2017).…

    My concern of community mental health professionals is both how to enable the right treatment and broaden the understanding of the patient. Everyone experiences sleeplessness, depression and/or anxiety, but none of those are criteria to one being insane. The study portrayed how complicated diagnosing a mental illness can be, or if one even exists in the individual. It is obvious that we cannot differentiate the same from the insane in hospitals. The environment of a hospital does show the meaning of behavior can be misinterpreted.…

    People who seek help with their social anxiety often have difficulties dealing with individuals who have "power," perceived power or authority. These can be authority figures, those with high status, or those in parental roles. However, you do not have to have social anxiety - fear of being negatively evaluated, embarrassed or humiliated, found inadequate, and rejected - in order to become anxious in the presence of someone with authority. In general, we have been taught to respect all authority. As a consequence, we also have a deeply buried sense of guilt about possibly being caught doing something authorities dictate we should not be doing.…

    In the article, A Leader’s Guide to Why People Behave the Way They Do, one of the key ideas to take away from this article is how an effective leader should not focus on using a command and reward system to obtain proper behavior in the workplace. Instead, a leader should “understand why the people they are trying to influence behave the way they do” (Clawson, 2001). With this very idea, we can begin to open our minds to fully understand people, not only in our professional lives but in our personal lives as well. Having the skill to understand VABEs (Values, Assumptions, Beliefs, and Expectations) and the ability it has to shape behavior is important for an effective leader (Clawson, 2001). VABEs are developed early and throughout our lives…
