Hdounderstandingbalancing Seminar Dr. E.M. Richmond-Garza Parlin 119, 512-232-5708 [email protected] Understanding and Balancing Motivations Focus: Ethics and Leadership 16 September 2016 Overview: Literature, especially performance, provides concrete and practical cases that help us to understand how ethical decisions are made and to see how ethics and leadership intersect. This professional seminar will use performance texts and approaches to question the nature of the ethical challenges we face in today’s diverse and dynamic workplace. We will focus on competing motivations, using methods and cases studies with practical applications. We will investigate examples, both artistic and actual, presented in a multimedia environment. These cases allow us to recognize and understand varied and competing identities and motivations. We will explore how to achieve balance so as to ensure successful management in the modern workplace. We will develop strategies for asking ourselves productive questions which lead to positive outcomes for conflicted situations in which competing ethical and personal agendas might otherwise lead to negative, or even tragic, consequences. The goal is to develop attentiveness to those patterns of motivational conflict, which might jeopardize the health and productivity of the organization and/or community in question, and to experiment with approaches for managing them. Hands-on experience with analyzing fictional conflicts will allows us to develop our own strategies for responding to real-life tensions and pressures in a self-aware and constructive manner. Exercises will involve applying Stanislavski’s system and developing ways of defining and negotiating competing motivations and ethics, while remaining aware of the subject position of each of us in the process. Further Related Reading: Relevant theorists and scholars are cited for each topic for the day. Additionally, participants may wish to consult the following works which directly apply performance techniques to management in the workplace: Whitney and Packer, Power Plays (2001), Mockler, “Using the Arts to Acquire and Enhance Management Skills,” Journal of Management Education, pp. 474-486, October 2002), Clemens and Mayer, The Classic Touch (1999), and Clemens and Wolff, Movies to Manage By (1999).

Is it one of those themes that are so obvious one no longer sees them? Is it that it weaves together the author’s life and his work in too mechanical a way? A radio interview Malle gave in 1993 about his mother prompted me to investigate the way he represents her in three of his ‘autobiographical’ films where the figure in question plays a central part: Milou en mai (May Fools, 1989), Le Souffle au cœur( Murmur of the Heart, 1971) and Au revoir les enfants (1987).

More- over, the intertextuality and intermediality of the ‘transmedial screenplay’ make it incompatible with ‘static’ concepts such as ‘fidelity’ and ‘originality’ precisely on behalf of the film medium’s adaptation.oxfordjournals.org poly-systemic nature. Bringing together the analogous concerns of collaborative creation, adap- tation, and authorship, this essay therefore discusses David Mamet’s screen adaptations of per- sonal and other work from a process-based perspective as a means of attaining a more constructive understanding of so-called ‘interaesthetic passages’.

Diálogo antes da peça começar Apesar de ter a aparência de um filme-esboço ou, para usar o termo mais teatral, de um filme-ensaio, Vanya on 42nd Street é o produto de, pelo menos, quatro anos de experiências em torno do texto clássico de Anton Tchékov, O Tio Vânia. Um grupo de atores, dirigido pelo célebre dramaturgo André Gregory, reuniu-se nos intervalos das suas obrigações profissionais para encenar essa peça sobre o ciúme, a inveja, os amores tristes e os orgulhos feridos no seio de uma família pertencente a uma aristocracia em queda.

  • 2008 TRASH Regionals Round 10 Tossups 1. This Person Is Deemed
    2008 TRASH Regionals Round 10 Tossups 1. This person is deemed superior to both Francesca in the Guggenheim and a social psychology professor in Baskin- Robbins. She likes her Scotch aged eighteen years. Her name is Janine, although she doesn't want to be called that. She has been encountered in a car by the side of the road, in a tub, and on a pool table, with the latter fulfilling her paramour's prom night pact. John, played by John Cho, popularized the term "MILF" in describing, for ten points, what older woman played by Jennifer Coolidge, the lover of Finch in the American Pie movies? Answer: Stifler's Mom or Mrs. Stifler (accept Janine Stifler on early buzz) 2. His 1984 graphical text adventure, Amazon, sold 100,000 copies. A personal friend of Jasper Johns, he published an appreciation of his work, as well as a book on BASIC programming, Electronic Life. Hollywood work included the script for Extreme Close Up as well as directing Looker and Physical Evidence. His pen names included Michael Lange, a pun on the German word for "tall", and Jeffrey Hudson, the name of a 17th century dwarf, under which he wrote A Case of Need. For ten points, name this author of The Terminal Man, Congo, and State of Fear, who recently died of cancer at the age of 66. Answer: Michael Crichton 3. This show's second episode, "Birdcage," featured a cameo by Audrina Partridge from The Hills. The third, "Dosing," sees the staff's bonus checks held hostage to a feud between the general manager, Neal, and HR director Rhonda, which is defused when the owner's wife tries to seduce Neal.

  • Malle's Histories
    4 Malle's histories Lacombe Lucien has polarised critical opinion and sharply divided audiences in their views of Louis Malle. On the release of the film in 1974 critics on the left-wing of the political spectrum saw the work as a pernicious attack on the heritage of the resistance and the social struggle more generally. Malle's film had to be unmasked for what it was: a bourgeois manipulation of the historical record that normal• ised the banality of fascism and concealed the heroism and complexity of the class struggle (Foucault 1974; Daney 1974). However, for fellow director Joseph Losey, Malle's work was a masterpiece of the cinematic arts equal to Fellini's 8% John Huston's Asphalt Jungle and his own Mr Klein (see Caute 1994:316). In this chapter I do not want to be drawn further into the many controversial sub-debates that surround the political or artistic merits of Lacombe Lucien, Instead, I prefer to analyse how Lacombe Lucien works as a film, to discuss its core rhetorical devices and what they mean today. Here important comparisons will also be made with the equivalently ambiguous rhetorical strategies deployed by Malle in Pretty Baby. That film is important because it throws a powerful sidelight on the nature of Malle's better-known picture. By way of an extended conclusion to this chapter my attention will turn to Malle's second American film, Atlantic City USA. Rather than marking a sharp break with Malle's preoccupation with history in work like Lacombe Lucien or Pretty Baby, it is a film that subtly re- enforces Malle's status as a memorial activist.
