We are such stuff as dreams are made on." Shakespeare,. Wednesday, August 20, 2014. Subtle Anticipations in Film Narrative: Foreshadowing in A Single Man. Tom Ford’s approach in screenwriting and directing his first feature film, A Single Man. The film begins closer to consciousness. It is all so open-ended, as if a blank screen so bright nothing on it can be seen. Just as vaguely, George says “I’m going away” in answer to a hustler’s suggestion of “Maybe another time? You don’t look so hot....After d...

The Worden Report - Business & Society: Starbucks’ CEO Triggering Conversations on Race
http://thewordenreport-businessandsociety.blogspot.com/2015/03/starbucks-ceo-triggering-conversations.html
Wednesday, March 18, 2015. Starbucks’ CEO Triggering Conversations on Race. Should a company’s CEO use the vast tentacles of the local retail stores to prompt public discourse on race in America? Schultz even made a video in which he told the baristas how they should steer their respective conversations. If this sounds a bit like George Orwell’s Big Brother in the novel, 1984. The question may be whether such societal influence is legitimate from a position of management in business. Business CEO’s...

Monday, May 4, 2015. A Conflict of Interest at the U.S. Department of Education Keeps Students on the Hook. The conflict of interest lies in the department putting its debt-collection/money-making role above the governmental responsibility to the public and the students. In other words, the conflict of interest involves shirking the role of wider responsibility in favor of one in which private benefit is foremost. That the department was indeed exploiting students for private (i.e., departmental)...Had t...

We are such stuff as dreams are made on." Shakespeare,. Sunday, November 23, 2014. Heaven Is For Real: Applying Kierkegaard to a Film. In Heaven Is For Real. In Fear and Trembling. By the universal, Kierkegaard has ethical principles in mind, for they are on the universal level because they are known inter-subjectively and thus can be understood by others. Might this be as much presumptuous as it is compassionate? Maybe love more naturally issues simply in being witnessed rather than being told. In a...

Friday, October 3, 2014. Religion and Business Clash at a Church’s Food Pantry. Ie, of its own genus or type) bases of justifications or rationales, unraveling a clash can be notoriously difficult for want of a common denominator. 1 People will scam us - that is a given and something that I can't control - if they really want to cheat they will. Thieves are so smart and creative. 2 If they cheat they will have to explain it to God, I won't. I hope that God is merciful. Her assumption itself takes it as a...

Tuesday, February 11, 2014. Teaching Business Ethics Beyond Skill and Tactic. At the end of March 2010, Warren Buffet spoke to business students at Columbia University. One asked the billionaire whether being ethical in business comes from how a person is raised or out of a business ethics course. Buffet quickly answered that it is learned in the home. I concur. A business ethics course properly understood is not prescriptive; rather,. Ethical principles and explaining. Their relevance to business is of ...
