John Colapinto's "As Nature Made Him - The Boy Who Was Raised As A Girl" - Dominant Paradigms
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. David Reimer was not merely the victim of medical error when a failed circumcision completely redirected his life but perhaps more importantly he suffered extenuating consequences due to historical, theoretical and cultural ignorance pertaining to gender identity. The extent to which Reimer endured more than a decade of his life being filled with conflicting indicators from inside his own body/mind disconnection and those around him who blindly - if not by utter brainwashing - believed they were doing right by him is both grand and far-reaching; that he was strong enough to regain his life as a male after all the adulterated and misguided attempts toward turning him into a female by virtue of mind control and hormone treatment speaks to Reimer's more grounded understanding of how gender identity is bound most stringently by the principles of nature over nurture. Bibliography lists 5 sources.

Looking at Bill Clinton through a Motivational
Microscope
[ send me this paper ]
(6pp) McClelland asserted that people acquired
different needs over time as a result of life
experiences. He identified three needs that affect
motivation of individuals and organizations:
"1. Need for Achievement - The desire to do
something better or more efficiently to solve
problems, or to grasp and solve complex problems.
2. Need for Affiliation - The desire to establish
and maintain friendly and warm relations with
others. 3. Need for Power - The desire to control
others, to influence their behavior, or to be
responsible for others." Bill Clinton is used as
the case study for these motivational theories.

Managing Employees Suffering From Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
[ send me this paper ]
A 16 page paper discussing some of the problems that a workplace manager may face when an employee is suffering from Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). The paper reviews PTSD, how it can affect individuals and the difficulty in dealing with it. Commonly associated with wartime experiences, PTSD also can arise from workplace incidents, natural disasters such as Hurricane Katrina and traumatic events such as the 9/11 terrorist attacks. The manager dealing with employees suffering from PTSD can use situational leadership or contingency theory to create a framework within which to manage the PTSD sufferer. Employing either of these theories and operating within them enables the manager to create a win-win scenario in which the individual gains help, support and validation, while the organization gains real value from the employee's contributions. Bibliography lists 11 sources.
