Circles

My math level before reading this book was a little bit rough. I have always had a hard time doing math in school. Most of the things I had trouble with was the fractions, percents, and word problems. I think this is because of these problems, I have always had a fear of math and wanted to stay away from math. Everything I tried to do to help with these fears either worked for a little while or it just never stuck with me. no matter how hard I tried to succeed in math, I always needed extra help

weather. Decades earlier, the black rubber had defined ridges, now the ridges are no longer so obvious and have been dulled down with time. The white letters that once bordered the edge of the circle are peeling off, littering the ground like snowflakes. He brushes off the dirt and climbs inside the circle.

Peter Singer. Singer explains his idea in his book “The Expanding Circle”. He believes that it is a person’s ethical duty to help those in their closest circle, of family and friends. But he also believes that that circle grows and expands to encompass other individuals as well, because our communities and societies are just one small part of many with the same needs and wants as us. Singer invokes mathematics to explain the circle should indeed grow to include others. That is until we

point where the two arcs cross as point 1. This is the center of the regular hexagon and the vertices of the hexagon will be on a circle centered at this point. 4) Initially draw a full circle centered at point 1. In future steps you only need to draw arcs near where the vertices occur. 5) Using point B as the center, draw a short arc that crosses the circle. Label the point of intersection point

The Starfish and the Spider: The Unstoppable Power of Leaderless Organizations by Ori Brafman and Rod A. Beckstrom (South Asian Journal Management, 2011) is an organizational book written for business leaders that described how a decentralized and centralized organization differ, what are the advantages and disadvantages of each style in managing an organization.

The field of business administration is not as straightforward as one may perceive. While there is a specific process that business owners must undergo in order to start up their own company, there is no exact right or wrong method to create and sustain a successful business. It is ultimately up to us, as potential leaders of any organization or project, to utilize our own personal values in order to help shape a realistic vision that all of us can achieve together. Because business administration
