ABSTRACT Games Leaders Play: Collaborative Leadership Development Through Simulations in Knowledge Based Organizations. John P. Dentico, Ed. D. University of San Diego, 1999, pp. 248. Director: Joseph C. Rost, Ph.D. New concepts of leadership and new methods of imparting these concepts to individuals are needed in the knowledge society of today. This study presented a practitioners model of collaborative leadership and a new experiential simulation methodology called LeadSimm as a way in which organization members could learn this new model of leadership and develop confidence in its ability to engage complex issues. Using the LeadSimm simulation method, two scenarios were developed and two simulations were played. The San Jose Police Department played one simulation and the Economic Development Institute of the World Bank played the other. The researcher conducted eighteen interviews from the 54 participants in the two simulations. These interviews dealt with participant learning, shifts in the participant's mental model of leadership, the willingness to put collaborative leadership to work, and observed qualitative or quantitative changes in the organization as a result of using the collaborative leadership model. LeadSimm demonstrated its ability to immerse participants into a leadership dynamic and to engage 50% of those participants in mental model shifts. As a result of playing in the simulation, four participants used collaborative leadership which resulted in higher work group morale, greater community participation, cost savings, and directly transferable knowledge on a press interview.

  • WINNIE VERLOC and HEROISM in the SECRET AGENT THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Parti
    7w WINNIE VERLOC AND HEROISM IN THE SECRET AGENT THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of Master of Arts By Cynthia Joy Henderson, B.A. Denton, TX May, 1993 Henderson, Cynthia Joy. Winnie Verloc and Heroism in The Secret Agent. Master of Arts (English), May 1993, 77 pp., bibliography, 65 titles. Winnie Verloc's role in The Secret Agent has received little initial critical attention. However, this character emerges as Conrad's hero in this novel because she is an exception to what afflicts the other characters: institutionalism. In the first chapter, I discuss the effect of institutions on the characters in the novel as well as on London, and how both the characters and the city lack hope and humanity. Chapter II is an analysis of Winnie's character, concentrating on her philosophy that "life doesn't stand much looking into," and how this view, coupled with her disturbing experience of having looked into the "abyss," makes Winnie heroic in her affirmative existentialism. Chapters III and IV broaden the focus, comparing Winnie to Conrad's other protagonists and to his other female characters.

    SAVING THE TITANIC, The Remarkable Untold Story of the Men Who Tried to Save the Ship, Premieres Sunday, April 1, 2012 at 10:00 p.m. (check local listings) on PBS She was the Pride of the British Empire and a leading example of state-of-the art engineering in a time of groundbreaking scientific and technological innovations on a global scale. Yet the RMS Titanic sank less than three hours after striking an iceberg on April 14, 1912. Everyone knows about the many deaths in the icy waters, the fates of the rich and famous on the ship’s maiden voyage and the dramas that played out in the Titanic’s last hours. What is less known is how a team of shipbuilders and engineers attempted to save the stricken vessel. One hundred years after the sinking of the vessel considered unsinkable, SAVING THE TITANIC is the untold story of self-sacrifice and dignity of the ship’s engineers, stokers and firemen in the face of impending death. With an ensemble cast in the roles of the valiant men below deck, SAVING Titanic Credit: Courtesy of Tile Films Ltd. THE TITANIC premieres on Sunday, April 1 at 10:00 p.m. ET with encore presentations on Friday, April 6 at 10:30 p.m. ET, Tuesday, April 10 at 9:00 p.m. ET, and Saturday, April 14 at 9:00 p.m. ET (check local listings) on PBS.

Should we be evangelizing? “Third-world people do not need more rich Christians coming to paint their church and make them feel inadequate.” How does that make you feel? “They do need more humble people willing to share in their lives and sacrifices.” How can we be humble? How can we enter into this solidarity of their lives and sacrifices? “…stop thinking about short-term missions as a service to perform and start thinking of them as a responsibility to learn.” How can we do this?

  • A Study of Illocutionary Acts in Heroes Series
    A STUDY OF ILLOCUTIONARY ACTS IN HEROES SERIES Achmad Nurdiansyah English Department, Faculty of Languages and Arts, State University of Surabaya Email:[email protected] Abstrak Sewaktu menyaksikan sebuah film atau serial televisi, orang-orang secara tak sadar mengamati sebuah aktivitas sosial berupa komunikasi antar para pemeran. Dengan meneliti sebuah serial televisi Amerika berjudul Heroes, peneliti berusaha mengadakan studi tentang tipe-tipe tindak tutur ilokusi beserta fungsi sosial dalam komunikasi melalui dialog di serial tersebut. Untuk mengidentifikasi tipe-tipe dan subtipe tindak tutur ilokusi dalam dialog, beberapa teori yang dicetuskan oleh Searle dalam Yule (1996) dan Bach & Harnish (1982) digunakan untuk penelitian ini, sementara teori fungsi sosial dalam tindak tutur ilokusi yang digagas oleh Leech (1983) digunakan sebagai landasan untuk mengidentifikasi fungsi sosial dari tipe-tipe tindak tutur ilokusi. Penelitian ini juga berusaha membuktikan bahwa tindak tutur representatif merupakan tipe ilokusi paling dominan dalam sebuah serial sebagaimana dalam sebuah film, serta mencermati pengaruhnya terhadap cerita di serial ini. Hasil pertama dari penelitian ini mendapati bahwa kelima tipe tindak tutur ilokusi ditemukan dalam naskah serial Heroes dengan 6351 temuan yang teridentifikasi sebagai ungkapan tindak tutur ilokusi, dengan kelima tipe tersebut adalah komisif, deklarasi, direktif, ekspresif dan representatif. Kedua, peran tindak tutur ilokusi sebagai fungsi sosial dalam serial ini dipengaruhi oleh gaya
