The articles are all correct even though they have different ideas. The first “C” of leadership is competence. Forbes defines competence as “what you know” (Walter, Ekaterina).

The man is described to have become a thin elderly man in slippers, wearing glasses and carrying a bag at his side. The text goes into detail about his apparel such as the pants he wore in his youth now drape loosely on his elderly shriveled legs. The sound of his voice has diminished to a…

According to Forbes, the keeping the minimum wage the same provides young people with a starting point, and gives enough income to sustain a low-cost lifestyle (Forbes, 2012). The lower income is seen as a “take off” point for many young workers. Forbes argues that the minimum wage jobs aren’t meant to be seen as a career, but rather create that hunger for advancement in the workplace. Forbes also explains that the minimum wage allows employers to budget…
