Rainer Werner Fassbinder updates Douglas Sirk’s 1955 All That Heaven Allows and gives it an overt and somewhat unforgiving political twist in his 1974 film, Ali: Fear Eats the Soul. A director takes a great artistic risk when admittedly endeavoring to remake an already genre-acclaimed classic; but rather than being derivative, Ali: Fear Eats the Soul is a fresh commentary on the xenophobic zeitgeist of post-Nazi Germany. Both films center on the lonely lives of widows who meet and fall in love with

For my place narrative assignment, I chose to focus on a place that I not only visit frequently, but truly appreciate: Mount Douglas. This is a place I value not only for its beauty, but for the calmness it allows me to experience as a result of being part of nature. As it turns out, this has been the location of many important histories, dating back hundreds of years, and is still making history today.

Change management is a feedback loop between external and internal activities, outcomes and needs. However, “many companies pay more attention to external activities than internal activities”- “their structures are still too tall” (Rodrigues, 2007, p.711). This is important as employee motivation is positively correlated with customer satisfaction – happy employees make happy customers (Rodrigues, 2007, p. 698). Success is not attainable in the absence of happy employees. Employees are the most

Douglas McGregor, a social psychologist in the 1960’s, developed two theories for workplace employees (Theory X and Theory Y, 1996-2016). Theory X describes employees as unmotivated, irresponsible, they need to be controlled, and they dislike working.
