Assess how an organization/its leader can utilize the concepts of both GLOBE and Hofstedes Cultural Dimensions Theory in order to create and sustain not only a culturally diverse organization, but an effective organization, as well.

In July 2017 Floridians, and soon the rest of the world, became fired up with outrage when learning that a group of teens had filmed a disabled man drowning. While Jamel Dunn was fighting for his life in a lake, the teens laughed, ridiculed him and recorded the event on their smartphones for their own perverse entertainment. They displayed a marked unwillingness to help him or notify the authorities. Afterward, they posted the video on social media and went on with their lives. Dunns body wasnt found until three days later. Florida prosecutors were skimming the case for possible legal violations but ultimately decided not to press charges, as no law in Florida regulates this kind of behavior

Why do you think that no law in Florida makes the teens behavior illegal? Do you think Florida law ought to change in this regard? Why/why not.

Recall from Meyers Chapter 1 that Agency is the simplest of the professional-client relationships. The client is sufficiently knowledgeable to achieve an established goal, and the professional serves as the agent by helping the client achieve that goal. In this discussion, you will enact this relationship amongst yourselves. Each of you has an essay due at the end of this module; your task is to act as an agent who will help your peers achieve that goal. You will do that by providing helpful insights to strengthen each others critical thinking.

the concept of the social contract (the agreement between a given group of people about how they will function in relation to one another). Although most works of fiction don’t explicitly mention a social contract, most of them do include some form of one. Think about the social contract as it’s expressed in the world of the TV show Friends: A bunch of self-interested people find happiness through working as a team. Or the social contract as it’s expressed in the more recent Breaking Bad: A lone wolf preys on a society that has failed him morally and financially. Each of these works of fiction expresses a world view in terms of how people are (or are not) responsible for one another.

should have an introduction with a clear thesis that leaves no mystery about what you will put forth; body paragraphs that are ordered and connected to support the thesis; and a conclusion which reflects on your findings. You should assume that your reader has a passing knowledge of your favorite piece of fiction, but you should briefly explain things like character (who’s important and why), setting (time and place), and conflict (the reason people are interacting as they are) so that there are no unsupported leaps in logic. You should use examples as you need them to illuminate your assertions. You can find these examples in the fiction itself, for example, paraphrasing the climax of a novel or quoting important dialogue from a movie.
