Exploring Films About Ethical Leadership: Can Lessons Be Learned?
EXPLORING FILMS ABOUT ETHICAL LEADERSHIP: CAN LESSONS BE LEARNED? By Richard J.

Of course, that was the aim of his magisterial scholarly work, and while unquestionably impressive, his tome turned out to be by no means the last word on the topic. Indeed over the intervening quarter century, quite to the contrary, we witnessed a continuously increasing outpouring of specialized political science, historical, philosophical, psychological, and other disciplinary studies with clearly ―no school of leadership‖with a single unifying theory emerging. -

The Opening Scene of AAE
The Opening Scene of AAE Much about Eve is suggested visually in the opening scene, which takes place at a formal function in which she is about to be awarded for "distinguished achievement" in stage acting. While the master of ceremonies lauds her "humility, her devotion, her loyalty . her deep and abiding love for us", the camera cuts to silent expressions on the faces of those who, we soon discover, know her intimately – and the camera is not kind in its observation of cynicism and disgust. Throughout this opening sequence, what we see and hear is guided by the first-person voice-over narration of the improbably yet suitably named, arrogant and vicious theatre critic, Addison DeWitt. This man sees all and knows all; when Eve rises to receive her prize, it is his point-of-view camera gaze that exposes the seething emotions of her "friends" in the audience. It is DeWitt's narration that controls the way in which Eve's story is told, and the sequencing of events, for as she extends her hands to grasp the award, DeWitt is granted the power to step out of his role as a character in the story, to freeze the film frame. In so doing, the onward-thrusting movement of narrative – Eve's ever-so-humble acceptance speech one minute later in story-time – is delayed until much later in narration and screen-time, via the "unfreezing" of the frame, shortly before the film's conclusion. Artistic/Literary References: Sarah Siddons (5 July 1755 – 8 June 1831) was a Welsh-born English actress, the best-known tragedienne of the 18th century. -

Social-emotional development is given only incidental attention. Families must be prepared to take up the slack. Otherwise students’ emotional growth may be impeded, resulting in diminished social skills, motivation, and ability to cope with stress. This book describes how public schools have changed and provides strategies for helping your child to thrive. Liane Brouillette is an associate professor of education at the University of California, Irvine. Drawing on her experience teaching in public schools in the United States and Europe, she explains how budget cuts, along with LIANE BROUI state and federal mandates, have stretched American teachers thin. She urges parents to be proactive in preparing their children with the tools needed to thrive in contemporary classrooms.

Narrative voice corroborates this from the outset by evoking Eve’s “snaky activities in a once-peaceful garden” (284). The story focuses on two actresses: Eve Harrington and Margola Cranston. Eve is portrayed as the carbon copy of the famous actress Margola, who resembles the “childish figure of a Botticelli angel” (285). Mankiewicz’s film, All About Eve2, was taken directly from the short story, which appeared in Cosmopolitan magazine in May 1946.
