Consider having these three leadership weaknesses:

1- Self-critical

2- Adaptability

3- Multitasking

Provide S.M.A.R.T goals for each discussing it in a manner of Specific, Measureable, Attainable, Realistic, Time-bound.

It's always a source of pride and amazement for me how applicable the lessons I learned in the Marine Corps are to so many aspects of civilian life. Indeed, many of the 11 Marine Corps leadership principles lend themselves perfectly to preparing for and engaging in a negotiation, another one of my favorite subjects.

Before combat, Marines diligently prepare and train. The same type of persistent preparation is needed for a successful negotiation.

Here are a few leadership principles from my experience serving as a U.S. Marine that inform my approach to every negotiation.

Know yourself and seek self-improvement: When entering into a negotiation, be confident in your authority, ability, and strengths. You (should) have prepared long and hard for this moment; don't be intimated by your opponent's prestige, title, or other accomplishments. That said, it's critical to be mindful of how you typically react in uncomfortable or unpleasant situations or to disagreeable comments, so if such a situation arises (and it will), you won't lose your cool. Anticipate your opponent's viewpoints, including those that might make your blood boil, and be prepared with reasonable alternatives that can help push the negotiation forward (rather than sitting there steaming). Be technically and tactically proficient: Marines live on a regimented schedule. This type of constant repetition allows them to be ready at any given moment for combat. A skilled negotiator will thoughtfully prepare and practice leading up to the negotiation. Earn your seat at the table by always learning and improving. Everyone (myself included) needs practice; once you think you know it all, you're done. Set the example: Be prompt for the meeting. Better yet, arrive early to give yourself time adjust to the environment and review any documents before you begin. During the negotiation, actively listen to the other person. Often, when it's our turn to listen, we are instead passing judgment, preparing our response, or even daydreaming, none of which will help you craft a purposeful response when it is your turn to speak. Set the tone for a respectful negotiation by paraphrasing the other side's viewpoint back to them, which helps you demonstrate empathy, understanding, and respect. Without these, your negotiation will go nowhere. Keep your Marines informed: It's essential that you create a transparent bond between you and your client or team with regard to the negotiation process. Transparency builds trust, so be honest with your client and team members. If you're a real estate broker whose client has asked for an update, don't dance around the fact that the seller won't budge from the asking price. Seek responsibility and take responsibility for your actions: Negotiators often focus their position too narrowly. Show that you have done your research and are conscious of your opponent's interests. Following the negotiation, own up to issues you could have handled better, and use that to inform your next negotiation.

The U.S. Marine Corps is all about mission, discipline and dedication. Stay focused and work hard to maximize your chances of success.

In this article, Joe Campolo, the managing partner of his law firm who previously served in the U.S. Marine Corps - 1^st Battalion, 5^th Marines, shares his thoughts on how the Marine Corps leadership principles can help one prepare and engage in negotiation.

Answer the following questions: What are the Marine Corps leadership principles that can help one prepare and engage in negotiation? Which one or ones do you think are most critical and why?

When is SRS preferred over stratified sampling? That is, under what circumstances is straified sampling inferior to SRS? My professor said "when within variance is larger, and between mean is smaller" stratified sampling isnt going to do much, and SRS would suffice. However, it is unclear what this means. Thoughts?

a) The following information relates to open-end Mutual Fund A:

Calculate the rate of return to an investor in the fund during the year, assuming all 12b-1 fees and fund expenses were paid before year-end.

b) Fund B is closed-end fund and has the same NAVs as Mutual Fund A on 1/1/2019 and 31/12/2019. At the beginning of the year, the fund was selling at a 2% discount to NAV. By the end of the year, the fund is selling at 3% premium to NAV. Brokerage commission and expenses ratio are 1.5% of sales proceeds. No interim dividends were declared.

1. what mask in register F would cause the Simple Assembler instruction [and RA, RA, RF] to put 0 in the most significant bit of register A without disturbing the other bits?

2. Suppose registers E and F contained AA and CC, respectively. What bit pattern would be in register D after executing the Simple Assembler instruction [xor RD,RE,RF]?

3. Suppose registers E and F contained AA and CC, respectively. What bit pattern would be in register D after executing the Simple Assembler instruction [and RD,RE,RF]?

4. If registers 0 and 1 contain the patterns B5 and F0, respectively, what will be in register 1 after executing the Simple Assembler instruction [move R0,R1]?

The level and the nature/type of diversification have different implications on company’s performance (check lecture video as well as lecture note). Amazon hardly recorded any profit until 2016 which is very surprising given that Amazon is an established big company with reputation. Think about industries that Amazon expanded into over its history. Do you think such a rather disappointing performance for many years could be attributed to its too much diversification by expanding too different industries? Explain what you think.

Packaging Solutions Corporation manufactures and sells a wide variety of packaging products. Performance reports are prepared monthly for each department. The planning budget and flexible budget for the Production Department are based on the following formulas, where q is the number of labor-hours worked in a month:

The Production Department planned to work 4,100 labor-hours in March; however, it actually worked 3,900 labor-hours during the month. Its actual costs incurred in March are listed below:

1.  Prepare the Production Department’s flexible budget performance report for March, including both the spending and activity variances.

hi please provide the graph and calculation. design an appropriate plot, show that it's not practical to have more than two reheat stages (take at least three reheat pressures between 2 to 12 MPa).reheated Rankine power cycle uses water as working fluid. The first stage turbine 's inlet conditions are 14MPa, and 600oC.All turbines are known as isentropic 85 percent efficiency,the pump is assumed as an isentropic pump.If the maximum temperature is maintained at 600oC and the condenser pressure is 6 kPa
