Van Gogh Art And Art - 1161 Words

Vincent Van Gogh, born on March 30, 1853 and died on July 29, 1890, at age 37, became the most highly regarded Post Impressionist artist of his lifetime. Van Gogh’s works became notable for color, emotion, and beauty, influencing 20th century artists. When Van Gogh turned 27 he decided to start painting, but started showing signs of insanity. His work didn t fit the tradition of art at the time. When Van Gogh started reaching his most influential years, society at the time declared him unstable. After Van Gogh committed suicide, his art started getting noticed. Van Gogh the artist, ignored in life, painted art that people didn t consider fit at the time. Later after Van Gogh passed on, people started to see his work as art. When Van†¦show more content†¦Even though Van Gogh, the first artist to have mixed impressionism and expressionism, sold only one painting in his lifetime, he remained a true genius. Some would say that Van Gogh failed to use impressionism to its correct form, but he wasn’t doing things by the book, he mixed two types of art and made a new style that we use today, known as post-impressionism. Look at â€Å"Starry Night† painted in June 1889, with oil paint on a canvas, sizing at 2†² 5†³ x 3†² 0†³. He painted an obvious masterpiece, a mixture of impressionism and expressionism. He painted what he saw this out of his window at the asylum, it all seemed realistic to him. His art has changed modern art by the way we use his techniques to pull the view into the paintings, to make it seem like they are in the painting themselves. It helps to involve the reader. We see his work as inspiring, eye opening, even mind opening. He didn t always try t o impress people; he didn t care that people didn t notice his work most of the time. He just painted because it made him feel better, like the story where he would eat yellow paint because it was a happy color, and he thought it would bring him happiness. The painting â€Å"Irises† painted in 1889, using oil paint on a canvas, sizing at 2†² 4†³ x 3†² 1†³, helped him with his hallucinations (Harrison). In this same year he painted three of his sunflower paintings, these pieces are well known, just not is

Case 20 Randell Corp - 5323 Words

Case 20: Rondell Data Corporation John A. Seeger Bentley College Damn it, hes done it again! Frank Forbus threw the stack of prints and specifications down on his desk in disgust. The Model 802 wide-band modulator, released for production the previous Thursday, had just come back to Franks Engineering Services Department with a caustic note that began, This one cant be produced, either. . . . It was the fourth time Production had kicked the design back. Frank Forbus, director of engineering for Rondell Data Corp., was normally a quiet man. But the Model 802 was stretching his patience; it was beginning to look just like other new products that had hit delays and problems in the transition from design to production†¦show more content†¦How does it look in Engineering, Frank? Ive just reviewed the design for the second time, Frank replied. If Ron Porter can keep the salesmen out of our hair, and avoid any more last minute changes, weve got a shot. Ive pulled the draftsmen off three other overdue jobs to get this one out. But, Dave, that means we cant spring engineers loose to confer with your production people on manufacturing problems. Well, Frank, most of those problems are caused by the engineers, and we need them to resolve the difficulties. Weve all agreed that production bugs come from both of us bowing to sales pressure, and putting equipment into production before the designs are really ready. Thats just what were trying to avoid on the 802. But I cant have 500 people sitting on their hands waiting for an answer from your people. Well have to have some engineering support. Bill Hunt broke in, So long as you two can talk calmly about the problem Im confident you can resolve it. What a relief it is, Frank, to hear the way youre approaching this. With Kilmann (the previous director of engineering) this conversation would have been a shouting match. Right, Dave? Dave nodded and smiled. Now theres one other thing you should both be aware of, Hunt continued. Doc Reeves and I talked last night about a new filtering technique, one that might improve the signal-to-noise ratio of the 802 by a factor of two.

Structures of Subjectivity Explorations in Psychoanalytic

Question: Discuss about the Structures of Subjectivity for Explorations in Psychoanalytic. Answer: Introduction: Sigmund Freud, one of the forefathers of psychology is the founder of psychoanalysis. He developed several theories (Freud, 2012) that have formed the basis of "Psychoanalytic therapy." There is a growing incidence of mental health problems in the present world necessitating the implementation of psychotherapeutic approaches as they make deep-seated changes in emotional and personality development (Strupp, 2013). This therapy is the effective choice for patients with specific emotional concern. In this context; the essay explains the psychoanalytic therapy for Peter, a 40 years old single male, who is currently seeking the psychoanalytic therapist to end his struggle with interpersonal conflicts. The essay explains the process of psychoanalytic therapy in the context of the case study, the stages and techniques of therapy, and the goals of therapy. The essay further presents the critique of psychoanalytic therapy. It briefly explains the key contributions of the psychoanalytic therap y and its limitations. The paper also provides recommendations on how psychoanalytic therapy can further evolve to improve its efficacy in therapy. Lastly, the essay elaborates the applications of other models that can overcome the limitations of psychoanalytic therapy. According to Lionells et al., (2014), there are three stages of psychoanalytic therapy identified which are the "initial, middle and the late stage." During the initial phase, the therapist tends to know about the patient and establish a therapeutic relationship. In the context of Peter, the therapist may tend to know his characterological style, dangerous situation ruling his behavior and his defensive maneuvres. The therapist may note clients initial resistance to the process and early transferential process for using it in future when the better understanding of the clients past life will shed light on the "present transferential responses." During the middle stage, the therapist tends to learn the feelings of the visitor for a significant person in the childhood. The two main techniques used at this stage are analysis of transference and analysis of resistance (Stolorow et al., 2014). At this stage, the resistance to the treatment and the transference process becomes more pronoun ced and vital part of therapy. At this stage, the therapist can explain and relate between the "the inner unconscious conflicts or desires and disease." Therefore, it will help Peter to realize and comprehend thereby allowing him to experience wider choices in life. At this stage, Peter's present decision-making could no longer be a cloud by his past distortions. It is at this stage of treatment where Peter will be made to work through his conflicts. This may have the good effect on the client. In the late stage of psychoanalytic therapy also called as resolution stage, there is a consolidation of new changes in the client. The therapist understands the clients old pattern in the context of past and old memories that were repressed. Also, at this stage, interpersonal conflicts resulting in maladaptive behavior are resolved in the therapeutic situation. This stage may include repetition of transference and hence the therapist reveals some of the clients problems and helps them to fac e reality. The treatment is terminated when the patient can solve the transference independently (Peterfreund, 2016). In this essay, we will emphasize more on the middle stage of psychoanalytic therapy and its goals. The ultimate goal of any psychotherapy is the improvement and enhancement in patients physical and mental health to their sense of well-being. The aim is to help patients to manage their life more effectively (Dreher Sandler, 2013). The goal of the psychoanalytic therapy is to analyze the components contributing towards Peters interpersonal conflict and the way these components are effecting his relationship with himself and with others (Hall, 2013). The therapist then intends to study the patient by bringing out the characteristic through selective inattention. Further, the treatment goal is to focus on how Peter is maintaining is relationship with others as well as his behaviour and tendencies (Lionells et al., 2014). After analysing these components the goal of the therapist is to determine the reason contributing to his current behaviour and factors causing him to hold onto it (Pet erfreund, 2016). The two main techniques used at this stage are Free association, dream analysis, analysis of transference and analysis of resistance (Atwood Stolorow, 2014). During free association, Peter will be encouraged to speak everything that is in his mind. The therapist may start with an investigation, which may include in-depth questions allowing the client to reflect on himself. The therapist will analyze the responses as patterns and deduce the cause of interpersonal conflict by exploring, rephrasing and summarizing the patients narrations. The process of reflection will allow the therapist to understand Peter and alter his perception by the process called as Reframing Barker, (2013). During dream analysis, the therapist investigates the repressed feelings that are expressed in dreams uncovering the unconscious material (hidden motives and fears). This technique helps to provide insight into a peters present functioning. At this stage, the goal is to alter the perception that is damaging to Peter and contributing towards interpersonal conflict. The therapist intends to help the client in healthy decision-making. The client is assisted to make healthy choices and act accordingly without external influences and anxiety. The importance of overcoming anxiety is because "anxiety and depression" are resultant of past interactions and are the cause of conflict between the conscious and unconscious (Dreher Sandler, 2013). While analysing transference, the therapist identifies the feelings to be resolved. It requires confrontation of Peters wishes, guilt and defenses and any discrepancies in clients conversation. At this stage, the treatment goal is to analyse the conflicts contributing to resistance. For example, Clients resistance towards revealing behavior patterns, fantasies to the therapist and are manifested as cancelling appointments or avoiding consideration. Therefore, the goal of therapy is to iden tify and eliminate the resistance using countertransference. At this stage, the goal is to identify the best treatment approach. This is continued until a stage is attained where the client will have cathartic experience indicating he can be cured (Benecke et al., 2016). The psychoanalytic therapy is in use since a century and has generated a great body of research about its key contribution. Psychoanalysis has contributed to basic understanding of the maladaptive and adaptive psychological development as per Eysenck, (2013). It continues to contribute towards an understanding of "depression and its treatment." According to Strupp, (2013) a major meta-analysis of psychoanalysis indicates positive outcomes in 80% of the clients treated with psychotherapy. A significant statistics is available on the benefits of psychotherapy, which indicates a long lasting effect of psychoanalytic therapy on the clients. The study released by "American Psychological Association" in the field of mental health has shown similar results in 2010 (). With the review of 16 meta-studies on the effectiveness of talk therapy used in psychoanalysis, it was concluded that 90% of the people who underwent psychoanalysis have benefited and it lasted long after the termination of tr eatment. These contributions of psychoanalytic therapy are note worthy and indicate the strength of the therapy. By virtue of this approach, several people with range of difficulties such as interpersonal conflict, addiction, anxiety and depression, relationship based problem and hidden emotional concerns were successfully treated with this technique (Summers, 2013). The technique was also successful when used for patients with personality disorder, learning disabilities, eating disorders, insomnia, and various types of phobias (Wampold Imel, 2015). In addition to its strength, the psychoanalytic therapy is subjected to several limitations. The key limitation is the cost and length of treatment (Wright, 2013). This therapy is comprised of several sessions and is not covered by health insurances. This may limit the accessibility for those with financial difficulties. The psychoanalysis consumes several weeks and months depending on the severity of the mental illnesses which may be difficult for working clients to stick to the schedule which defeats the purpose of the treatment method used. Further, there is a lack of consensus of the effectiveness of psychoanalysis among the practitioners. The Psychiatrists and other mental health professionals continue to practice psychoanalysis although it is less common today than in the years past. This is due to the criticism of both Freud and psychoanalysis in extreme terms. The criticism towards psychoanalytic approach relates to the changes that have taken place in mental health care and psychoanalytical diagnosis" over time (Schmidt Schimmelmann, 2013). Wright, (2013) Criticized that the psychoanalytical theories are heavily based on the clinical case studies. It is criticized that these theories are not enough for experimental research and is regarded as pseudoscience. Atwood Stolorow, (2014) Argued that theory of psychoanalysis are falsifiable. There is a lack of clinical evidence supporting the casual claims of psychoanalysis as mentioned by (Freud, 2012). This constitutes the major limitation of psychoanalysis. Various alternate models have been suggested to overcome the limitations of the psychoanalysis psychotherapy. According to the paper The Efficacy of Psychodynamic Psychotherapy published by "American Psychological Associations" Cognitive Behavioural Therapy or CBT have scientific base and its benefits are as large as any other psychotherapies (Tasca et al., 2014). According to Hofmann et al., (2012) more than 160 studies have concluded CBT to be only evidence-based options. This psychodynamic model has been scientifically proven to be effective in alleviating interpersonal distress and emotional conflicts. Using the elements of CBT in psychotherapy will improve its efficacy as this is the form of behavioral treatment, which is problem-focussed and allows the concerned individual to see the relationship between feelings, thoughts and beliefs and subsequent actions. It includes combination of other therapies such as "dialectical therapy", and "rational emotive behaviour therapy" (Summe rs, 2013). Therefore, it is recommended to collate the psychoanalytic therapy with CBT to minimize the downside of psychoanalytic approach. It combines the principles of "behavior and cognitive psychology" (Benecke et al., 2016). The factor that distinguishes CBT from the former therapy is the greater focus on the concerned individual rather than the past (Schmidt Schimmelmann, 2013). CBT places importance on thinking. It helps the client to overcome dysfunctional assumptions and automatic thoughts to gain perspective that is more realistic. Unlike the psychoanalytic therapy, CBT tends to be of short duration even for serious emotional problems. Similar to psychoanalytic therapy, CBT has long lasting effect on the client even after the termination of the sessions. It introduces the patient in this case- Peter to set of principles that he can apply at any time and point of his life (Hind et al., 2014). In the given case study, Peter can be provided with collaborative treatment including both CB T and psychoanalytical approach that may help him resolve his interpersonal conflicts. Another alternate treatment option considering Peters case study is "patient-centered therapy" developed by Carl Rogers. This therapy includes humanistic approach and deals with individuals perception about himself or herself consciously Rogers, (2013). In contrast to psychoanalytic therapy, this client-centred counselling does not emphasize on how the therapist can interpret the client's unconscious ideas and thoughts. Instead, this technique, the counselor understands the patients experiences from their point of view while being open and genuine. This therapy has been found effective in facilitating the relationships and personal growth of the individuals by enhancing their inner strength, self-awareness and identity (Morgan Yoder, 2012). This therapy is applicable in the range of cognitive difficulties such as personality disorders, alcohol addictions and eating disorders. Also, this therapy, allows the client to have control over the content and pace of sessions. Using the eleme nts of person-centered therapy in psychotherapy will improve its efficacy and hence is recommended for resolving interpersonal conflicts of Peter. The other advantage of this therapy is its non-directive form of communication where the therapist treats clients being non-judgmental. Conclusively, the author agrees that the psychoanalytic therapy is a beneficial approach keeping aside the cost and time limitations. The use of techniques such as free association and dream analysis ensures positive results to the clients. However, the limitations of this therapy may overcome by incorporating the elements of "patient centered therapy" developed by Carl Rogers and CBT. No matter what therapy is used it is essential to incorporate empathy to understand the clients current predicament. Care and compassion fasten the problem solving method to achieve a good positive resultfor the client. References Atwood, G. E., Stolorow, R. D.

Fundamentals and Management Current Complex Global Management

Question: Describe about the Fundamentals and Management for Current Complex Global Management. Answer: Introduction Administering people in current complex global environment has become tough task where key managerial personalities must be efficient in segregating the assigned tasks among individuals and capable of offering clear instruction to involved parties to have desired outcomes (Armstrong Porter, 2007; Daft, 2011; Hitt, Ireland Hoskisson, 2007). Nature of enterprise varies from being in business, education, hospitals to non-profit field due to which the task and role of managers are different which needs to managed superiorly to create competitive edge against other players (Young, 2010; Hollyforde Whiddett, 2002). This report has selected Woolworths Limited, an Australian Retailer, that focus on extending strategic leadership in food and liquor segment, increasing shareholder value, creating competitive growth plans and encouraging people who supports growth (Woolworths Liqour Group, 2015). The tasks with which the senior team leader of Endeavour Drinks segment, Martin Smith, of the co mpany is assigned with will be analysed (Woolworths Liqour Group, 2015). The basic details regarding the team leader position and job description will be highlighted further along with list of parties, principle characteristics and diagrammatic representation among personnel. Requirement of Job Harold (2010) claims that working as a leader is a complex where the role is to offer individual maximum support to complete their assigned tasks accurately and assists the firm to obtain their desired goals. The position of Martin Smith in Woolworth Limited is essential where the person in order to manage the staff and executives requires giving significant knowledge for managing day-to-day activities and obtaining operational excellence (Woolworths Liqour Group, 2015). As per an article published in newspaper, the CEO of the company claimed its liquor segment among the market leaders and appropriate example for innovation in the Australian retail (Homewood, 2015). The position which Martin Smith holds in the company is critical and challenging wherein accordance to changing preferences of consumers the manager must be eligible to inspire peers and subordinates for innovation (Woolworths Liqour Group, 2015). The requirement of the job is to create friendly relation with suppliers an d partners so that they can serve the requirements of millions customers that improve their satisfaction level (Forsyth, 2009). The job description of Martin Smiths position is to understand the necessities of business and convey important decisions and information related with department to subordinates and people. This way the company will be able to improve its processes and maintain suitable relation with suppliers and consumers (Turner, 2012). For instance, in Australia, in order to be the price leader the entity came up with a Savings Everyday Campaign where consumers were informed about the benefits of shopping at company (Woolworths Limited, 2013). Woolworths Liquor group is having wide range of consumers across varied segments and channels which require clear leadership with regular communication with producers and farmers (Woolworths Limited, 2011). Moreover, in order to attract and retain consumer base the company has involved itself in coming up with innovative strategie s for online and in store departments (Mitchell, 2015). For retaining the corporate vision of the company, leaders personality must be dynamic, quick decision-maker, innovator and inspiring. List of Parties Woolworth liquor department is managed jointly for Australia and New Zealand where after Greg Foran, Martin Smith has been recruited as senior team personnel to administer the entire region (Mitchell, 2015). In order to conduct the activities several internal and external parties of the company are involved who ensures that items are delivered within estimated time period to consumers. Some of the essential parties with whom Martin Smith has to contact regularly are as illustrated in table 1. Table 1: Key Personnel of Woolworths with designation and job role Name Designation Job Role Mr. Brad Banducci MD and CEO Administers the overall activities of Woolworths brands Mr. Steve Greentree General Manager Looks after essential portfolios trading portfolio of Woolworths Mr. David Chambers Managing Director of New Zealand supermarket business Assigned for taking care of supermarket business.

Interacting with marketing agencies, strategists and managers for coming up with innovative concepts of increasing sales of items. (Source: Woolworths Liquor Group, 2015) Nature of interdependency existing between manager and key individuals The group shares pooled interdependence among each other where every personnel are assigned with distinct jobs with different departments (Wheelan, 2005; Grifin, 2013). Martin being the liquor department senior manager requires proper interaction (direct and indirect) with people belonging to the entity where failure of one department could impact the performance of entire business. For instance, for continuous supply of wine Martin must be direct contact with Campbell Stott (Dan Murogys) and on the other hand with Elizabeth regarding ways to increase the sale. If Elizabeth fails to come up innovative and attractive marketing campaigns it could result in poor sale of liquor brands of Woolworths and Dan Murogy. This illustrates that pooled interdependence among people belonging to distinct designation and department exist which must be managed efficiently by Martin to have superior performance of entity. Diagrammatic representation of interdependencies among people Figure 1 illustrates the interaction and dependency that people shares within different Woolworth Department. The independent group are Brad Banducci, Steve Greentree and David Chambers as they are important managerial of Woolworths who are assigned to look after entire supermarket business in Australia. On the other hand, supplier companys director Campbell Stott, Elizabeth Reyley and Duke Dunkerley are largely interdependent among each other where Martin Smith in order to have efficient supply, advertising schemes and stock of liquor items requires maintaining proper interaction among the team. Figure 1: Interdependency among Personnel with Martin Smith (Source: Authors Creation) Martin Smith works under the supervision of Brad Banducci, Steve Greentree and David Chambers and they must be informed regarding key decisions while Martin Smith is the directing authority for the Terry Thomas and other two. The group shares a pooled interdependency where they are indirectly or directly linked and must be efficient in handling their assigned tasks failing which the overall performance could be affected. Evaluation of the Interdependent Group Terry Thomas: Assigned with the post of Liquor Department Manager and is responsible for taking care of inventory level of liquor at stores and processing orders. Terrys efficiency and effectiveness of jobs is entirely dependent on direction and inspiration provided by Martin Smith. Martin in order to increase satisfaction level of Terry should have proper communication and appraisal mechanisms that result in encouragement and superior performance of department. Campbell Stott: The efficiency and effectiveness of suppling enterprise is interconnected with how efficiently Martin Smith manages the deals. While trading the items to any company, suppliers frames certain rules and conditions regarding quality, price and quantity of items being transferred that must be handled efficiently to have regular flow of stock at stores (Wheelan, 2005). The schemes or additional benefit that Martin Smith provides to suppliers impacts the overall decisions and supply chain management of Woolworths liquor department. Elizabeth Reyley: Reyley looks after the advertising campaigns that need to be implemented by Woolworths brands to improve or increase the sales against other competitors. Martin Smith interaction with Elizabeth is essential regarding what offers they are offering related with drinks based on which the overall theme of campaign depends. Therefore, improper interaction between Martin Smith and Elizabeth Reyley could result in improper strategic communication and loss of sales. Conclusion and Recommendations The report has discussed different departmental heads and personnel related with senior team management of Woolworths liquor section. Martin Smith has been recruited as managing executive of liquor stores throughout different parts of Australia and New Zealand. In order to have superior performance it should be ensured that proper interaction among departments and people are being undertaken. The report has pointed out list of parties that are involved in important decisions of liquor department where dependency among people are illustrated through diagrammatical representation. It was observed that activities of liquor department manager, marketing head and supplier is highly interlinked with the decisions and information conveyed by Martin Smith. In order to improve the efficiency, effectiveness and satisfaction level of personnel working in accordance with Martin must come up various schemes like redesigning of structure and work routine of departments. Better incentive mechanism for personnel like Terry Thomas could be applied where proper recognition or promotion could be offered for maintaining appropriate flow of liquor at stores. In order to have better tasks accomplishment in companies the managers must be capable of improving the personnel efficiency through better tasks and structures. References Armstrong, M. Porter, R.H.
