Atricle Dump - Change, Growth And The Life Cycle (2)
I well remember during my first working visit to Africa, nearly twenty years ago, that on discussing the visible corruption where I was working, a young African said to me, ‘but of course you don’t have any corruption in your country, do you?’ I gently told him, yes we do, but on the whole, there isn’t much publicity ab
But we are not always able to shut the door behind us. Alexander pictures a sixty-year-old woman wearing bright red lipstick on her wrinkles, they cling ferociously to what they never fully had.
Check for yourself how you have solved the challenges in the different stages of your life. Look back and see how
Just after leaving school or college with or without a degree pinned to our well tailored blazer, we immediately dream of filling the chairman’s chair in a multinational company, eager to preside over the board meeting and take part in the all too pleasant tea party. No, there is nothing wrong with it. We greenhorns, all
Alexander writes: "Consider the case of a young couple and their new born child. The child “depends” on the parents to give the care and love that is required to resolve the conflict of trust that goes with infancy. But simultaneously, the child gives the parents the experience of raising and bearing, which helps them to meet their conflict of generativity, unique to adulthood."
This is why Alexander -- an Architect -- uses this theory of Erikson to establish his community pattern. A community pattern is to solve a community problem; “make sure that the full cycle of life is represented and balance in a community.” Because people will (have to) meet the conflict of their stage when they are confronted with people of other stages ... “Babies control and bring up their parents, as much as parents bring up their children.” If different groups of people live in isolated communities -- the retirement villages, teenage cultures, college towns, they will not be able to meet the conflicts of their stage. The conflicts between children and infants, or between adolescents and adults.
Changes in life become apparent when we can look back, or to others and notice that we have been there, dealing with similar issues. And realizing that now we have different issues to confront, part of the stage we are in.

Wouldn't it be nice if everyone got as excited about your company as you are? Unfortunately some businesses just aren't very sexy; in fact, some businesses are downright boring. As a consequence, companies that sell commodity products and routine services tend to rely on presentations that load-up on features, specificat

Brand equity can be defined in many different ways. I have developed a simple, yet powerful, definition of brand equity. For a brand to be strong it must accomplish two things over time: retain current customers and attract new ones. To the extent a brand does these things well, it grows stronger versus competition, and

When it comes to promoting your business, keyrings are a great way to get your name out there to customers and show them that you have an interest in their lives and in their needs. You will have to show them that you understand their tastes and want to give them something classy to remind them of you, and for that, met

In a world where unemployment is high and competition for the few jobs available is stiff, one needs to know about the different ways of finding a job.Before you look for a job, though, you need to assess your strengths and weaknesses. You have to make sure that you are fit and equipped to deal with the demands o

Check for yourself how you have solved the challenges in the different stages of your life. Look back and see how you have grown up. And compare this with other changes in your life, or at work. And ask yourself -- have I solved the problems that are part of this transition, or am I still struggling with the demands from the old situation and not able to dedicate my time and life on the new challenges? We see this often in business -- for example the manager that is still managing like a specialist, because that is where his growth stopped. He is not able to fulfill the change from one stage to the other.
And this is what happened to the couple that visits the marriage counselor. Although they had become parents they were still struggling with problems from previous stages. And therefore not being able to manage their marriage ...
