Groups and teams A group is usually a collection of individuals who contribute their efforts in a coordinated forum. A team, on the other hand, is typically a group of people who have a common purpose or challenging goals that drive them to work together to achieve (Kozlowski, 2012). Team members commit to the goals at hand and each other. They work as one and are equally accountable. Teams and groups all have a common goal at hand, but the method used in achieving these goals vary. The people in both the teams and the groups have the skills required in accomplishment of the task only that the means by which these skills are utilized vary too.Working in groups can be advantageous in personal skill development and promotion of independence. However, the lack of interdependence leads to conflicts, and delay in task completion due to unequal participation. Teams, on the other hand, are more productive due to the collaborative atmosphere they create. Task completion is fast due to the effective communication encouraged in the team.…
Effect of Childhood Experience and Trauma on Personality Student’s Name Institutional Affiliation Abstract This paper discusses the effects of childhood experience and trauma on personality development. It begins by looking at childhood development. Here, there is a discovery that those children who are experiencing child abuse are at a higher risk of developing several adverse outcomes. Examples of these outcomes include learning challenges, implicit and explicit symptoms, and peer-related concerns. The paper also discusses the relationship between personality, trauma, and health mechanisms. For instance, this paper borrows mainly from the betrayal-trauma theory, which suggests that children suffer from trauma at the highest level when their caregivers are responsible for executing the traumatic events, which may include disloyalty. As a result, such children tend to experience disastrous impacts on both their physical and psychological lives, which becomes an issue even at an old age. Additionally, the article recognizes and elaborates on the Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACEs) and the recommendations for a possible response to the Adverse…

Myanmar LPG Myanmar has experienced rapid changes in the oil and gas sector after the European Union and US sanctions in 2013 were lifted in 2016. Even Myanmar had experienced many years of economic isolation, authoritarian rule, and ethnic conflicts, but it continues to emerge from these issues. However, inadequate infrastructure is also one of the problems which have made it difficult for local companies to move LPG products store at Myanmar shores. The majority of Myanmar LPG is imported from Thailand and some from China. The imports are estimated to be about 7,000 tons per month, which can hardly meet the current demands. The yearly LPG consumption in Myanmar is about 100,000 tonnes, but it is growing as the country becomes more developed. This supply only represents about 5% of the population. However, the government has identified the prevailing challenges and has been laying strategies of increasing LPG storage and supply. One of the strategies includes a partnership with the private sector. Elite petrochemical is one of the private companies that has invested heavily in Myanmar LPG. Once Elite…
Issues affecting communication Communication Concept Scenario Illustrating Ineffective Communication Solution for Effective Communication sample Downward communication In a meeting with some but not all employees, the chief orally announced immediate changes in procedures. The presentation was confusing and left more questions than answers, and employees not in attendance did not receive the information. Best practice: “Written communication is generally the most reliable mode for complex communication” (Robbins & Judge, 2017, p. 360). A detailed addition to the operating procedure manual was prepared before the changes took effect.

56 Up Film The film 56 Up, as directed by Michael Apted, serves to give the impression of the significance of family and the importance of education in life and the world. The movie follows the lives of fourteen seven-year-old children from different economic backgrounds in London and their progression in life-based on their dreams. The thing I liked about the film is the fact that the three friends Sue, Lynn, and Jackie, maintained their friendship thirty years later since the original interview. Moreover, most of the show’s characters have gone on to be successful people in their lives despite their different economic and social backgrounds (Mead, 2013). The producer Michael Apted also kept up with the interviewees’ progress to keep the audience updated with their lives. However, I was not too fond of the fact that the film did little to offer either emotional or financial support for the young children at the beginning of the project. Some of the characters, such as Peter and Neil, who were poor and homeless, did not obtain any help despite being part…

Parents: how to give a baby CPR CPR (Cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is an essential skill for parents. CPR is given to save lives by restoring regular breathing and blood flow. When a person stops breathing, and CPR is not performed immediately, they can die within minutes. CPR can only be performed by the people closest to the victim when the incident occurs. Cases of drowning, choking, suffocation, and other injuries can result in breathing difficulties. With insufficient oxygen supply, the child is at risk of suffering permanent brain damage and death. The CPR process entails checking compressions and rescue breathing. Chest compressions maintain blood circulation while rescue breathing keeps blood flowing into the lungs. CPR is best performed by CPR certified persons. CPR certification programs are available online for interested persons. Caregivers for children and infants should have CPR certification. Online CPR certification is readily available, and the registration process is simple. There are no limitations of age and education for persons interested in taking up the course. There is no excuse not to have CPR certification. Most importantly,…
