We’d match your salary here and give you a small relocation fee for your move to Indianapolis. APRIL That sounds boring. (thinks) But there’s nothing keeping me here. Do you have internet in your office? CHRIS Yes. APRIL Fine, I’ll do it. CHRIS This is literally the best news I have heard all day. They shake hands. April leaves.

  • Benefits of a Strong Parks and Recreation System
    A STRONG PARK AND RECREATION SYSTEM IS ESSENTIAL FOR A THRIVING COMMUNITY Four out of five North Americans use their local recreation and park system. 70% have a park or recreation facility within walking distance of their home. Our parks are such a stable influence on our lives that we tend not to give them much thought. But our effective parks and recreation facilities do not just happen on their own. They require professional care and financial support to keep them clean, safe and suitable for the community they serve. HEALTH BENEFITS: Access to parks and recreation facilities leads to healthy lifestyles for people of all ages. Strong evidence shows that when people have access to parks, they exercise more. Every time sedentary people walk a mile, they add 21 minutes to their life. On average, every hour you spend exercising increases your life expectancy by two hours. Exercise increases the brain’s capacity for learning. ENVIRONMENTAL BENEFITS: Parks, open spaces and trails play a key role in preserving water and air quality, reducing congestion and protecting wildlife. Through the provision of parks, open spaces and protected natural environment, recreation can contribute to the environmental health of our communities. Trail and pathway systems save energy and protect air quality by encouraging non-motorized transportation. COMMUNITY BENEFITS: Parks and Recreation sources give communities a vital identity. Well- maintained, accessible parks and recreation facilities are key elements of strong, safe, family-friendly communities. When citizens get involved with their parks and recreation systems, their quality of life improves. Parks and recreation opportunities encourage citizens to be engaged in their communities – as volunteers, stewards, advocates and students.

  • Successful Communication in the Workplace 1
    Successful Communication in the Workplace 1 Leslie Knope of Parks and Recreation: Successful Communication in the Workplace November 28, 2016 Leslie Knope 2 Introduction According to Genderlect Styles, a theory by Deborah Tannen, women traditionally communicate for relationship while men communicate for power. In order to work past oppression in the workplace, women have had to adjust their communication style to communicate for power vs. relationship, but often receive negative attention for it. Are male communication styles for power the only way to gain success in the workplace today? The television show, Parks and Recreation, shows a good example of a character, Leslie Knope, who exemplifies both types of communication: communicating for power and relationship. She takes a lot of time to invest in her friends and usually, as a comedic element of the series, wants everyone to like her and everyone to be happy, but this usually causes more harm than good. She learns throughout the series that her success comes from her care for her friends and her town while commanding power to stand out as a leader in order to rise in politics. Can success only be gained when we communicate for power instead of relationships? I will look to answer the question of how television series, films, and the media depict “successful” communication practices for women in the workplace by analyzing the character of Leslie Knope in Parks and Recreation. My literature review will discuss how the media portrays women, and what truth these depictions hold for women in the working world. Literature Review A large portion of research done on this topic discusses how prominent female roles in our media are scrutinized, and how positive female roles of women in power are generally underrepresented.
