The conflation of architecture and philosophy in Mies's career Philosophy helped Mies precisely to recognize these different tendencies, to test their veracity, and to develop more clearly and firmly a direction to his work.

values, attitudes, and emotions reflect our philosophy in life and leadership style. To be an effective leader, you must know yourself first. Self-assessment helps us identify things we need to improve. In this paper, I will discuss who I am, the leadership style that appeals to me and reflects on my philosophy of care. I will also enumerate how I will apply this leadership style in future practice in a healthcare organization. Self-Assessment and

The result of which, is my unfamiliarity with many of the central theories on the subject in comparison to my more experienced colleagues. Nevertheless, once I began to research the subject of communicative language

There are many approaches to human motivation: considering Murray’s (1938) inventory of motives, he identified five groups of needs, and I have placed my motivation into the category
This is the question that keeps lingering in my head in those midnight self-talks or those deep shower thoughts. I tell myself that I am just another average high schooler, but it is hard to believe that the average teen goes through the same problems as I do, acts similarly, or has the same aspirations.
