We have been privileged this year to be able to sit down and have a one on one conversation with Tom Manoghan. Tom, the CEO and Founder of Pizza Dominoes, is a concise man who likes to keep his strategy or plan in the dark until it is time to change. That is how he began detailing the inception of his business as a single store (Domi-Nick in Ypsilanti). Even as he responds to the challenges and failures, you can see the positivity in his face. The 90-minute interview, which was designed to help us understand leadership in-depth and also delves on how the doings of failure and challenges show that honing a leader towards the formidable path to success in entrepreneurship requires is resilience amidst adversaries. In the same way, a true leader and entrepreneur accept challenges and failures is the same way a leader should lend and receive help through teamwork to ease the work of building a company. Put another way; the interview gathers that challenges and failures should be the motivating factors for an entrepreneur and,…
Handling elderly patients diagnosed with mental health issues is very complicated, especially when the primary caregivers lack professional medical background. Consequentially, there arise many issues, including maltreatment and physical injuries. However, when the caregivers have experience in the ways to deal with the medical needs of the patients, there is limited chances of maltreatment(Alvarez, et al. 356). In this case, the patient’s caregiver, her daughter, and son-in-law seemingly lack adequate background knowledge on ways to deal with her condition adequately. Loss of weight, dehydration, and the bruises in her arm are signs of maltreatment. However, her daughter’s account of the situation contradicts that of the patient; therefore, the situation must be handled impartially to ensure correct assessment to allow for accurate recommendations. I would handle the situation by first subjecting the patient to a detailed geriatric assessment that examines her functional body levels, cognitive abilities, psychological characteristics, and, most importantly, the socio-environment that she lives. Geriatric assessment is essential to ensure that a forensic nurse determines whether the reported case is a result of maltreatment(Parker, et al. 153). The fact…
The article that correlates with Lasswell’s definition of politics is of MJ Hegar who has been on the forefront in Texas’ first this year. Her inspiration into politics began while she was in the military, where she advocated for open military combat for women. However, she received little support in her plea to empower women in the army. She later discovered that the opposition she faced did not originate from the military but rather from politicians in D.C. This experience opened her eyes to the power that politics has over every sector of the economy. As a result, Hegar opted to join politics and influence the policies made towards women and equality. Her journey into politics began with twenty-five female combat vets who mobilized the issue to senators, staff members, and congressmen and women. Eventually, she won the campaign and decided to run for U.S. senate. She claims that most politicians are focused on staying in office for longer terms and gaining profit which is contrary to the needs of the people. In 2018 she broke a record by coming…

Financial stability in companies Financial stability and success are primarily the dominating elements used to define industry leaders. However, in the pharmaceutical industry, this is not the case as success is primarily determined by innovation and the adaptation of new technologies. The decision-making process in an organization essentially determines whether an institution will be a leader or laggard in the pharmaceutical industry. It is the case as the process of making decisions primarily structures the direction which a company follows. I would classify my level of knowledge and experience on operations management as knowledgeable. It is based on the fact that when it comes to operations management, I am aware of some few facts to maintain a conversation concerning operational management.

Popular TV shows You are what you watch and I would say that observing what people watch is a sure way of knowing the kind of people they are. Apart from being a platform to watch news TVs are important in introducing us to our culture and educating us on various social issues. Although they form an exaggerated version of real life, they are vital in telling us about the dynamics of everyday life. But does TV shows portray what is important in our society? I feel they do, and my arguments in this particular paper support my position. A family is the foundation of good morals in society and learning how to have a healthy and strong family is vital in any society. Any TV show portraying this is indeed showing what is important and “Modern Family” has been working on that by reflecting on what American Families look like today. It highlights the difference between various American households. The differences between the families teach us essential things in making a family the place to learn good morals and…
Washington Black by Esi Edugyan From the story of Washington, Esi Edugyan depicts the identity of a slave as one who does not have freedom and liberty. The identity of a slave is thus defined by a slave master and not the slave. The life at the plantation serves to show that slaves were used only as tools like nothing else. In a conversation between brothers Erasmus and Christopher Wilde, it is easy to see the value that was attached to slaves. Erasmus tells his brother that “My language cannot offend her. She has no sensibilities to offend . . . They are not the help, Titch. They are the furniture” (Edugyan 27). The furniture reference here refers to something or someone who does not have any emotions or feelings. Just as furniture carries people without talking back or complaining is the identity that the overseers at the Faith Plantation forged for slaves. Most overseers believe that the slaves are only fit for working in the plantation. For example, in this story, before Washington knew which type of slave master…
