2Week 5 Activity PerceptionChoose a film that you have seen recently, and which you particularly enjoyed. Now find a friend or colleague who has seen the same film, and who hated it.Discuss your views of that particular film. What factors (age, sex, background, education, interest, values and beliefs, political views, past experience) can you identify that explain the differences in perception between you and your friend or colleague?The “Golden Circle” is a movie that I found interesting unlike Joyce my friend. The movie is awesome such that I find the cable care scene and the climax a bit enjoyable. Joy finds the movie more of a waste of time as some actors appear abruptly in cameo who are not fully utilized which paints a picture that Matthew did not know how to make good use of the celebrated performers.Week 6 - MotivationVisitwww.greatplacetowork.co.ukand take a look at the UK’s 50 best places to work, as well as the100 best workplaces in Europe.Find out what these companies do to motivate their staff.The companies have got various ways to motivate and retain their employees including the good communication. Proper communication is termed as the key factor to any business success. The managers keep open lines of communication and listen to their views and ideas. This makes them feel connected to the progress of the company. Keeping them updated of the emerging issues in the business encourages regular meetings which draw the employees and managers even closer for a stronger relationship. Allowing the employee-ownership after they get clear guidance and instructions lets them use their own initiative in their undertakings. This promotes the belongingness to the company and improves their motivation. The managers encourage the employees to take breaks which allows for them to get time to develop themselves and freshen up to maximize their potential. The managers approach the employees personally to encourage them to take leaves which symbolize the care about their wellbeing and self-advancement.

Failure to maintain consistent team members necessitates unnecessary orientations which reduces coordination and leads to a waste of time.Week 8 Activity (Leadership)TaskWatch the following video:http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XKUPDUDOBVo(Ten Leadership Theories in 5 minutes)Activity:Answer the following questions:1.What is the difference between trait and behaviour theories of leadership? Are the theories valid?Trait theory observes the individual’s best characteristics to be pursued for best leadership, and has the idea that a leader must have some specific virtues which are normally inborn while the behavioral theory rejects the idea of inborn potential or approaches to leadership and features leadership as a set of actions that every leader should undertake in relation to the organization. The theories are valid as they help to identify the ideal person to assume the leadership position. 2.How can organizations select and develop effective leaders? Provide 1 example.The managers should identify the employees who possess integrity and good ethical practices. A leader is identified by virtues such as the ability to confront mistakes rather than turning away from them. a leader should be one who embraces responsibility by performing well and accepting responsibility and embracing the challenges in the organization. Leaders are selected mostly based on their technical skills. For instance, if an employee is able to handle customers diligently, he or she is appointed as the new supervisor.Week 9 (Power & Politics)Please read the following case study from your prescribed textbook and answer the 4 questions at the end:Case Study: Delegate power or keep it close?" p.360Week 9 Case - Delegate power or keep it close p.3601.If you were Samantha Parks, how would you prioritize which projects or parts to the projects to delegate?
