Questionnaire on Leadership (school project)

Postby Golden_Griff » Sat Nov 20, 2004 12:56 pm

Hello all! Golden_Griff needs your help! :?: (And if you help her, when Griff makes it to the big time and starts making alotta dolla, maybe she’ll remember you ;) )

Okay, this is a questionnaire that I’m conducting for my social psychology class; it’s about social psychology in the business/workplace setting. I don’t know much about how the business world itself operates so if something here sounds dumb just bear with me.

PLEASE DO NOT COMMENT OR GO INTO DISCUSSION ON THIS TOPIC.
I’m not trying to sound rude or anything but I would prefer if you ONLY cast a vote. This is so people won’t be swayed in their response because of what others have said, in addition to keeping things anonymous.

I thank you for your time in advance :)

~Golden_Griff

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~


QUESTION: From each of the following descriptions, who makes a better leader in the workplace?

SALLY:
At work Sally tries to make the workplace a comfortable environment by allowing employees to walk bare-foot around the office. Everyday, Sally comes to work a little late because she goes out to buy a box of donuts to share with everyone. She is almost never in her office because she is often out getting better aquainted with employees. In addition, Sally likes to hold a lot of office parties.

GREG:
Greg holds a company meeting at least twice a week, in which issues and concerns about company productivity are discussed. If a solution is needed to a problem that the company faces, Greg works to find the solution that he thinks works best. Each Friday in the office is “Casual Friday,â€

You could always plead for an honorary sticky. . . You probably wouldn't get it, but asking never killed anyone. Or, it never killed them in a really painful way.
Every year in Uganda, innumerable children simply. . . disappear. These children all stolen under the cover of darkness from their homes and impressed into the guerilla armies of the LRA [Lord's Resistance Army]. In the deserts of Uganda, they are forced to witness the mindless slaughter of other children until they themselves can do nothing but kill. Kill. These children, generally ranging from ages 5-12, are brainwashed into murdering in the name of the resistance and into stealing other children from their beds to suffer the same fate.

Because of this genocide of innocence, hundred and hundreds of children live every night sleeping in public places miles from their homes, because they know that if the do not-- they will disappear. They will become just another number in this genocide to which the international community has chosen to turn a blind eye. They will become, in affect, invisible-- Invisible Children.

But there are those who are trying to fight against this slaughter of Uganda's children. They fight to protect these "invisible children." Please, help them help a country full of children who know nothing by fear. Help save the innocence. For more information concerning how you can help and how you can get an incredible video about this horrific reality, visit the Invisible Children home page.

Another option is for people to simply post "OK. I've voted now."

That's all. Nothing about WHAT they said. It would serve the same purpose.

Well, I didn't mean to sound as if you couldn't post anything AT ALL :sweat: I just didn't want people to say "I definitely choose so-and-so because of this and that reason" type stuff. I wasn't sure how you guys (mods and admins) would feel about the thread being bumped with "I voted" or something simliar to that. But since you give the go-ahead thats cool with me. This isn't anything important enough for that honorary sticky :eyeroll:

I have cast my vote! ^_^


The choice has been made. There's no looking back. I won't let up, back up, give up, or shut up. My focus clear. My path is straight. My God, reliable. I'm a disciple of Christ.

Gods plan is like the sun. its too big and bright to look at directly, and sometimes the rain clouds cover it, but sometimes the plan dapples through the clouds and we can see beautiful glimpses of what he has in store for us.

Voted! ^_____^ I hope you do well on your project, Griffie.

[size=84][color=seagreen]YOU SEE


You see into the deepest part of me ---

beyond the fog I hide behind.

You cast your light upon the shadows

that stretch like cobwebs in my mind.

You ease the pain when I am hurting,

and morbid visions from my past

pierce into the realm of Reason

as though I danced on blades of glass.

You grant me strength when I have fallen

and, once again, I've lost my way.

You take my hand in Yours and lead me

into the promise of a brand new day.

You bring order to all my chaos,

yet set my well-laid plans awry.

You place me on a firm foundation ---

then give me wings so I can fly.

You sand away my roughened edges

and polish all the dullest parts

until I stand before Your presence...

a newly-sculpted work of art.

You see into the heart within me,

right through my motives and selfish will.

And yet, in spite of all You see

You say You love me even still.

so are you going to tell us what this poll reveals about our deepest, darkest secrets? (or at least what the project is about once you finish it?)
