Theory of Change Management Peter Senge promotes the idea of a Learning Organization as a theory of change management in his book ‘The Fifth Discipline’. Senge (2006) encourages the “rethinking of corporate philosophy” and a commitment to individual learning to establish a learning organization. Individual learning, according to Senge (2006), does not guarantee a learning organization, but without it, learning organization is impossible. Individual learning, therefore, is key to the…
perhaps, all the time in their daily lives. Maybe I am the one out of a million that is confused by this definite rationale. A lot of people seem to believe that heroism is nothing more than the crescendo of courageous acts. Achieved by the same course; however, you simply have to go further down the path. That has not been my experience. And if you asked me if I wanted to become more courageous in my life, I am not all sure if I would, exactly because it proves to be such a challenging behavior…
A man with a dog Wang lives in a small village, and he is very poor and stupid, smelly and skinny, lazy and aimless. He lives with his supple touching dog. In his sight, he has nothing but his dog. He never gets out of his village and he doesn’t have any job, just grabs some sticky, dirty bottles and sells them to the shop every day to gain a little money. He loves his dog more than himself—he never cares about himself, and he gives most his food to his dog. One day he is tired staying in his…
a boy that had no reason to run away at all-Robert Piest. When his parents reported him missing, a search for Piest was quickly started.

The police got a warrant to search Gacy’s house where they found items belonging to other missing boys and a coat with a photo receipt in it. It turns out that Piest’s girlfriend had him pick up some picture for her…
Obesity is a disease that many Americans develop over the course of their lives. What makes obesity, such a serious matter is that it is the leading cause of life-threatening diseases such as cancer, heart failure, diabetes, and even depression. To make matters worse, the United States had the highest rate of obesity and are estimated that about ¾ of the American population will likely to be overweight or obese by 2020, according to Wikipedia. This is just not for adults, it is also for children…
mid-February and had these things called Mini Courses. Mini Courses were a bunch of fun activities like candle making and food tasting that you could sign up for. You were allowed three at max. It was my 8th grade year, and since I really did not care for them because of what I chose the previous year (going the the Barlow Planetarium, which I enjoyed, puzzle time, and candlemaking, which I could have done without),…
Maybe ignorance is bliss for a day. I can close my eyes and breathe in the heavy scent of the pungent stench of manila bay and pretend even just for a day that I am safe, that we are safe, that I can stand in front of this bay and commute and I will be safe, that I can trust the streets to keep me unharmed, that there are good days and bad days but life is as beautiful as ever, but reality is a burden you can’t un-see, and although there are holes and faults, taking comfort in the safety of…
For most people their favorite memories revolve around family and friends. My favorite memory involved a runaway horse. I will always remember my gallop in the Arizona desert fondly as one of the most exciting days of my life. It was mid spring when a band of nine riders slowly plodded along the Arizona Mexican border. The dusty prairie stretched as far as the eye could see, flat and endless. Brush, burnt from the sun’s blistering heat, filled the landscape with hazy color. Cacti were…
