Many people think that the world is going to end. Many others have already lost faith in the U.S. Everyone is bracing themselves on what is going to happen on November 8th. The Yellowstone volcano isn’t going to erupt, nor is The San Andreas fault going to cause an 8.0 earthquake, but there is a run for presidency between Donald trump and Hillary Clinton. These two polar opposite candidates have gone head to head the whole year, and they have expressed their thoughts and ideas through…

My Opinion On The Presidential Debate This analysis will show my opinion the presidential debate between Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump. I will also explain the different topics that they spoke on through the examples of ethos, pathos, and logos. Then I will explain the difference between Hilary Clinton and Donald Trump. A few nights ago I looked at the presidential debate to see which one of our future leaders would be best for this country. As I looked at the presidential debate I…

Donald Trump is an egotistical maniac that must not be president. Trump is a man so unqualified to be president that I think even a five-year-old can do a better job than he can. America has stooped so low into electing this crazy orange man that I don’t even think I can see rock bottom anymore. Trump is a sexist, racist, self-centered, egotistical baby who is only looking out for himself and throws little tantrums on Twitter whenever someone offends him. This doesn’t even scratch the surface of…

Is there such realistic idea of a perfect leader? While in one’s imagination, the notion of a flawless leader is an acceptable principle, humans are composed of contrasts and flaws rather than consistent, perfect virtue. The archetype of the leader suggests an idolized character (Shadraconis), but it can also be challenged. Such a scenario occurs in Sophocles’ Oedipus the King, a renowned Ancient Greek Tragedy that illustrates the leadership, and the subsequent catastrophe of King Oedipus who…

In Cammalleri, Hendrick, Pittman, Blout & Prather’s article (1973) they seek to find the best leadership style and they do this by comparing two models of leadership, the Life Cycle Theory constructed by Hersey and Blanchard and the Contingency Model presented by Fiedler. The Life Cycle Theory suggests that good leadership depends on how well the leader can gage his group, making the leader’s behavior more important than his personality in terms of group success. This means the leader can…

In her policy ads, Hillary Clinton shows how she would improve the lives of those around her with her policies. In her ad “reshuffle”, Clinton talks about how she plans to reshuffle the working jobs in America to help the middle class. In “stretched”, she talks about how she plans to raise income for middle class families – at the end, she says “hope you read my plan”. In “every child”, Hillary says to look at her granddaughter and the opportunities which she has been given. She says that she…

The much anticipated first Republican primary debate is now officially behind us. As expected, it was colorful, amusing, at times intense, and at moments downright awkward. Overall, I wasn’t horribly impressed by any of the contests. Still, there were definitely winners and losers. I thought I’d share my thoughts on how each candidate performed. Donald Trump – Leading up to the debate, I was enjoying the mass butthurt delivered by the Trump train. The current state of affairs, in US politics…

Facebook is the new era of information. As millions of people become integrated with Facebook, information can quickly be outsourced and unfurled through society. This ever growing social media network is information central for opinions, facts and day to day activity which can be monitored by millions of people, allowing small events to become a trend in a matter of hours. For my Communication project, I used this information central to test out theories which were covered in class, and see if…

Defining what leadership is, who leaders are, and what leaders do is not easy (Grossman & Valiga, 2017). Some of the classic theories include Great Man Theory, Trait Theories, Situational Theories, Contemporary Leadership Theories, Transformational Leadership, Authentic Leadership, and Adaptive Leadership. Applicable to this case study is the transformational leadership. This theory was first introduced by Burns (1978), and he described it as being context based, a process for motivating…
