d'expliquer la croyance populaire selon laquelle les gestionnaires proactifs sont plus efficaces ou plus performants que les gestionnaires qui le sont moins: «their deliberate initiation of opportunities to influence expectations and/or other aspects of theirs jobs is believed to be a behavior that is critical to their success in the job.» (Fondas et Stewart, 1994, p.98). En d'autres termes, un gestionnaire proactif est peut-être un individu qui peut plus facilement satisfaire les attentes de son «role

inadvisable as such other quixotic attempts to state the unstateable as a grammer of metaphor or an absolute dictionary. That is because symbols and people exist in a mediating relationship to one another — they are our besetting devils as we are theirs — and the question of whether "collectivizing" and "differentiating" are ultimately symbolic or human dispositions becomes hopelessly entangled in the toils of the mediation. 10 Have I, then, artificially exaggerated the polarities of human

likely to be for their benefit that they should be conquered and held in subjection by foreigners. Independence and nationality, so essential to the due growth and development of a people further advanced in improvement, are generally impediments to theirs."66 Mill's view is an example of the more general position that colonialism is justified by its beneficial effects on subject peoples. Thus, for example, Disraeli defended military coercion of subject peoples on the ground that only British rule could

Germany was largely because of its economic policies: reducing unemployment and poverty in a country crippled by the constraints put on it after its defeat in 1918. But the Nazis also put emphasis on regaining self-esteem: Germans should realise that theirs was a superior race; they had no reason to feel shame or humiliation for what had happened in the past... The superiority of one race implies the inferiority of another and, for the Nazis, this was above all the Jewish race which, among other things

Whipple, Squeeze This” There is nothing you can do about a meat puppet. Your boss is going to have to go above him, to whoever’s yanking his strings. Such a decision is not yours to make, and you’ll need one of your higherups to talk with one of theirs. Sometimes it works. You may discover the client culture isn’t, in fact, fear-based and that your contact person is living in a backwater of fear he created on his own. PABLUM PARK. It’s a 10 o’clock meeting on Monday morning at Martini, Yesman

fellow entrepreneur or, more importantly, a venture capitalist, asks you the big funding question, you can answer honestly: we’ve secured angel funding from ——— ———. If your Mr X happens to be a name they recognise – or, better yet, a drinking buddy of theirs – you’ve got instant credibility. It’s a pack game, and the theory goes that if you’ve managed to convince someone of the worth of your idea, then you must be on to something. Unless you’re talking to a potential investor – who will check your story

a violent race, as I had observed. Or the killer could be Bill, since Heidi thought the vampire she’d scented was my neighbor. I hadn’t smelled the body while it was under the dirt as the others had, since my sense of smell was only a fraction of theirs. But as the dirt piles grew and the hole got deeper, I could tell it was there. Oh gosh, could I. I put my hand across my nose, which didn’t help at all. I couldn’t imagine how the others were enduring it, since it would be so much sharper to

hand of Adam Smith becomes the hand of God. The commands of the market overrule the claims of citizenship, culture, country. Economic efficiency becomes the highest value. (…). We see the cult at work in corporate executives who proudly declare that theirs is no longer an American company but a ‘global’ company. (…). To the ‘economite’, the true believer in economism, sovereignty, independence, industrial primacy, the values of community and country, must be sacrificed, should the gods of globalism

milk, she'd say to Lucy, but Lucy would always wait around until there was just one carton left. It took a while for me to figure it out. Lucy didn't know which carton was supposed to be her milk. She thought all the other kids knew which ones were theirs, and if she waited until there was only one carton in the box, that one had to be hers. Do you see what I'm talking about, Uncle Nat? She's a little weird—but intelligent weird, if you know what I mean. Not like anyone else. If I hadn't used the wordjust
