Mergers and acquisitions has become an important part of the American commerce, which communication plays an important role in reducing the negative impacts. While Schweiger agrees that failure to communicate with employees during a merger will increase employee uncertainty and anxiety, he highlights that previous researchers (Napier et al., 1989) did not measure uncertainty nor any of the supposed dysfunctional outcomes said to follow uncertainty.

In the United States of America, family life has been greatly important to the structure and function of society. A large part of this family life is the institution of marriage itself. Over the past few decades, the role and presence of marriage has been transformed. What once was a standard assumption in the home life of Americans has become increasingly less consistent. The Changing Landscape of Love and Marriage by authors Kathleen E. Hull, Ann Meier, and Timothy Ortyl discusses how and why these changes may have taken place on the basis of two primary conclusions. The first of these is the idea that marriage has lost it’s taken-for-granted status, and the second being the fact that both adults and children are experiencing more upheaval in their personal lives than in the past.

I believe there are many factors that define culture, such as language, food, traditions from past generations, religion, and values. All of these factors have the power to influence the individuals within.

Arriving at a foreign country at the age of eleven years old was and exiting and yet intimidating experience. High buildings, wide roads, newer and nicer cars on the streets were some of the first things I noticed when I arrived to the city of Los Angeles CA. Living in a country where you were not born in could be difficult some times. Although Spanish is spoken at a grand scale in CA, it was difficult to communicate with and understand the teachers from my classes at the elementary level since all they spoke was English. Los Angeles is a city of great diversity, therefore it is believed to be the perfect place for any person arriving from another country to not feel like a foreign, such believe

Relational – Cultural Theory (RCT) began as a feminist perspective that allowed psychologists a more appropriate measure of women’s experiences in terms of relationships that were not created by and for other male researchers. The inception of this theoretical perspective originates from the recognition that most research and consequent response considers the male as the norm and makes assumptions about the experience of women based on that norm that may not give a correct account of the female experience. This standpoint, however, has evolved and “may also include a better understanding of male growth and development” (Robbins, Chatterjee, & Canda, 2012, p. 125). It allows for a greater understanding and ability to serve those who experience any number of situations and circumstances during the life course. Robbins et al. explain, “it has expanded to better account for all human experience, both male and female” and connects the individual problem to the greater social world; that is, it looks at the individual relationships and consequent suffering within the context of the greater culture (2012, p. 125).

“I believe the world and all that’s in it is one big family, and we need to help each other.” This quote says that no matter who you are, you have a family that can help you and that you need to help others. Chapter 29 of Inkheart by Cornelia Funke supports this theory, because while Meggie and Mo were talking they thought about Dustfinger. They were wondering if he was ok. This shows that they really do care about Dustfinger after he betrayed them. This shows us that everyone makes mistakes, and everyone is forgiven and someone to help them in hard times.

There are cultural differences within all the communities that make up the world, we are constantly surrounded and reminded of these other cultures. In this paper cultural differences will be discussed from the film “Why Did I Get Married?” which is an African-American movie about the hardships one goes through in marriage, friendships, and trust. This paper is going to give specific examples of Hall’s perspective of culture on the screen and Hofstede’s five dimensions that are reflected in a particular pattern. Examples of both verbal and non verbal intercultural communication and how they relate to particular intercultural

The co-culture I have selected to write my paper about is identical twins. I chose identical twins for the simple reason that I have never met a pair myself, but have always wanted to. I have always been fascinated about the fact that two people can look exactly alike in every conceivable way, yet have different fingerprints. Miniscule things like that are puzzling to me. My current impression of identical twins is one of wonder and awe. As I stated previously, I’ve never actually met a pair of identical twins. So for the most part, they are still enigmatic to me.

Emergency management encompasses a wide range of protective measures aimed at improving a community’s resiliency, managing risks, and implementing mitigation strategies. When considering emergency response strategies, emergency managers must account for cultural issues within their communities. They must structure emergency planning around community policies and underlying issues that could hinder the implementation of mitigation measures. Using blanket strategies for disaster mitigation in most cases do more harm than good. Tailoring strategies to meet the needs of specific needs of community is the best way to approach disaster planning and mitigation efforts. Emergency mangers must

My first impression of the book turned out to be drastically wrong. The book turned out to be more about understanding how and why we engage in the relationships we do, and why individuals comply with other's demands. Upon further reading I felt cheated for not knowing

T. S. Kord, in a 2016 article for Cultural Dynamics, stated that he had a new theory for why our culture enjoys horror films in that “horror films primarily seek to elicit not fear, but guilt” (69). He said this because he felt that horror films acted as a way for people to feel the guilt that they should be feeling about various issues in life but are not. Kord also felt that violence was a vehicle through which this genre caused people to wrestle with the guilt they should be feeling. While this may be the case for the horror genre, it may be different for a newer genre that, although normally categorized in the science fiction class of movies, takes some cues from horror. This genre is that of the dystopian future, a normally violent, somber

My biggest concerns as an ECE candidate are my language barrier and my cultural background. I think Korea is a very conservative country because it seems that there are only one standard of success, beauty, and etc. It has been continuously changed as the generation changes, but still, there is not enough understanding of diversity. Since there is one standard for each area, most people think different with others means something is wrong. There is a lack of understanding and acceptance of differences, so many people compare themselves with others to identify themselves and judge others with their own perspective easily. I have lived in that culture for 30 years. If someone asks me, “What cultural competence specifically means to you,” I could

My next problem was the writing, it was very juvenile in structure and, therefore, completely distracted me from everything else that I disliked and turned my focus on something I dislike even more. I hate the stereotype that Young Adult literature is easy to read because of its amateur writing styles, but when it comes to this book I can’t even disagree with that claim. There was so much modernized language throughout the story that it almost reminded me of the company that is turning Shakespeare into stories told through emojis. This was

Have you ever had a traumatic moment in life? If so, how would you feel if you were reminded by it in a setting where you should feel the safest in? Many students around the country are emphasising the need for “trigger warnings,” alerts that the material students are about to read or see in class might upset them or, cause symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder. Why not prevent these feelings of fear and sadness in class? It’s better to prevent these situations than to tiptoe around them. Trigger warnings are necessary in classrooms.
