  Recommendations for Motivation Theory   Locke and Latham made six recommendations for 21st-century motivation theories. They found out that the existing theories had limitations and therefore integrating them to form a mega-theory would be suitable for the modern age. His recommendations included; integration of extant theories to build a mega-theory for work motivation using meta-analysis, creation of a science of motivation that has no boundaries, explore different types of relationships that can hold between general and situational specific motivation, study both conscious and subconscious motivation, usage of introspection explicitly in building theory and acknowledging the role of volition in human action when formulating theories (Owens & Valesky, 2015). The most helpful recommendation in explaining motivation in a Christian educational institution would be using the outcome of preexisting meta-analyses for integrating the valid aspects of existing theories. Christian managers can come up with theories for creating work motivation. Most theories start with employee needs and end in employee satisfaction through acquired motives and values then goals and self-efficacy (Owens & Valesky, 2015). The most direct determinants for motivation in these…

‘Miss Julie In ‘Miss Julie,’ females are treated as the main instigators or offenders of transgressive behavior. This is seen between Stanley’s talk about Stella in scene VII ‘She (women) could take him without giving herself into his power. Rather she could use this sex thing to have power over him.’ Such a view is commonly held concerning the 20th-century women who most people feel that she may not necessarily be in love with her male partner but uses sex to get what she might be desired from the man, say, money, status in society, etc. In contrast, the male transgressors, on the other hand, use sex to conquer women who are in superior places in society, but this is interpreted as a disgrace to the women. This would seem to suggest that it is oka for women to use sex to manipulate women since the said men do not seem to lose their worth. In contrast, if this happened to women holding high positions in society, they lose their worth and are disgraced. Sex is used here as a…

Quantitative Analysis Before making decisions concerning a set of data, the data needs to be processed. The processing of data involves the production of cleaned, transformed, and modeled data that could be used for decision-making purposes. Data analysis aims at retrieving useful information. The process of data processing involves both quantitative and qualitative analysis. This paper will focus on the aspect of quantitative data analysis.  Quantitative analysis involves the understanding of information through the statistical and mathematical research and measurement of data. The quantitative analysis incorporates the use of numerical as a means of representing reality. This analysis is based on the evaluation of three sets of data. The analysis involves obtaining numerical data from 50 subjects. The data obtained is then subjected to quantitative analysis to derive the relationship between the three different sets of data. The first set of data obtained through random interviewing of people is the age of the participants.  After asking the age of the participants, voluntary information will be asked concerning the number of times the participants or a member of their families have…

Double consciousness The term double consciousness can be traced to an African American sociologist W.E.B Du Bois. Having being born when Jim Crow Regime was at its peak in the nineteenth century, Du Bois was determined to liberate the oppressed black race through his scholarship which would be the tool for liberation. Due to the cruelty of American racism towards the blacks, the Negros in the United States could not formulate self-evaluations because of the white stereotypes. In Du Bois perspective, blacks during this time were grappled with the question of whether they were Americans or Negros. The term double consciousness, therefore, stems from this dilemma of “twoness”. The “twoness” was experienced African-Americans because of their oppression based on race and devaluation in a white-dominated culture (Du Bois, 17). According to writings by Reed, Appiah, Watts and Gooding-Williams Du Bois considered blacks to be an inferior race although he was among them. They had strong grounds to argue that Du Bois was actually on the side of the whites in propagating stereotypes among the Negros (Du Bois, 30). In his…

    Why Move Information to the Cloud?   Name Institution Course Instructor Date     Why Move Information to the Cloud? Cybersecurity is getting more challenging each day due to the evolving nature of threats that are becoming complex. Therefore, organizations are increasingly shifting their operations to the cloud to obtain improved security levels. Although the cloud does not guarantee 100% security due to various challenges; however, a properly secured cloud solution can provide enhanced levels of protection that could not be achieved through on-premise security measures. There are significant reasons why organizations that seek to improve their security posture should consider moving to the cloud. The cloud minimizes the risk of authorization and authentication threats. The cloud has a linked global coverage, which ensures that all employees in an organization or a members of a team access it through a single logic credential (Sether, 2016). This helps in streamlining the identity and access credentials management. Therefore, employees can access anything they need at any time across the cloud applications. The cloud will have an audit trail that helps…
