Management Assignment
From the two books you read, answer the questions that other students asked below.
Book 1 : Start with Why
Question 1: This past year I began mentoring four teenage girls to help them focus and prioritize their responsibilities. Of the four is a rotten apple whom I’ve been trying to inspire to turn her life around. With one semester left of high school, she chose to drop out and chase after her dreams, boys. This young lady has a full ride to college and a guaranteed $50,000 annual income waiting for her but the only thing holding her back is the absence of her high school diploma. I’ve tried so hard to inspire her to finish the one semester needed so she can have a better life, but she has continued to put it off. I’ve given her reasons it would benefit her and explained until I was blue in the face how simple it can be. Is there a dead end with inspiring and influencing? Simon almost makes it seem easy to inspire as long as you are clear of why but even when the why is clear how do you influence?
Question 2: When considering a routine service, how often does a company’s WHY actually impact customers? Considering things like teeth cleaning and home maintenance. I imagine most people just google search who provides that service nearby and may look at a review or two.
Book 2: A More Beautiful Question
Question 3: What change can be implemented within the American education system that allows for students and educational professionals to challenge the arena of intentional inquiry?
Question 4: With the increase of technology and the wide spread availability of smartphones it has never been easier to access information. How much do you think technology and Google has changed the way we ask questions?
