A Contemporary Definition of a Good Manager
[ send me this paper ]
This is an 8 page paper discussing the definition of a good manager. The need for good management is essential in employee production. It has been found that over 35% of employees leave their positions if they feel they do not have a “good” manager. While management skills used to be based on the “hard” skills such as education, organizational skills and experience, recently it has been found that “soft” management skills are what are needed to be considered within the definition of a good manager. Good managers today not only need the basic hard skills which relate to education and organization but also need open and ongoing communication practices with their employees. Overall, these communication skills include goal and priority setting, praising good work, integrity, sincerity, mentoring, and delegating responsibility to employees among other practices found to create higher morale, and better productivity and retention within the business environment.

A Position on Bluestone’s Essay “The Inequality Express”
[ send me this paper ]
This is a 6 page position paper in regards to Barry Bluestone’s essay “The Inequality Express”. In his paper “The Inequality Express”, Barry Bluestone (1996) discusses aspects of the trends predicted by British sociologist Michael Young in his 1958 book “The Rise of Meritocracy, 1870-2033” in which an individual’s socioeconomic status would no longer be based on lineage or family connections but instead on the differences of education, intelligence, experience and effort by the year 2034. While Bluestone writes that he has not seen such a revolution yet within society he and other social economists believe that there are three clearly defined trends which are consistent: that the distribution of earnings (in the U.S. and the U.K.) reflect the distribution of formal education in the workforce; “the gap in earning between the well educated and the not-so-well educated is steadily increasing”; and, the standard of living for those who are less educated is declining. Despite these trends, Bluestone and his colleagues present possible solutions to the end of inequality; most of which seem unlikely in today’s global free market society. Bibliography lists 1 source.
