Introduction
This paper will analyze three Terminal Course Objectives (TCO) as they relate to the movie The Legend of Bagger Vance. First, this paper will address the following TCO A: Given the predominant roles of contracts in all aspects of business activities, describe the general legal principles involved in contract formulation, execution, and enforcement and demonstrate their application in day-to-day business negotiations and operations. Next, it will discuss the relevance of the TCO F within the context of the movie. TCO F requires: Given that business requires means of securing its credit transactions, illustrate the distinction between secured and unsecured credit, and describe the methods of perfecting a security interest under UCC Article 9. Finally, this paper will address TCO G which states: Given that private, personal, and real property is the lynchpin of a private, market based economy, apply the principles of acquiring personal property, bailment, and real property, and the transfer of ownership of real property.

By giving Junuh guidance the expectation of the importance of his decisions, even hypnotizing him during his most traumatic point, Bagger was able to teach him to work through his post traumatic stress, the stress of the match, and perhaps even his personal relationship
The 918 is in bad need of the General’s transformative style of leadership to shape and elevate the motives and goals of the troops. His primary intention is to have leadership at all levels, and this can only be accomplished through empowerment. By enhancing the troops’ competence and confidence in their abilities, listening to their ideas and acting upon them, by involving them in important decision making, and by acknowledging and giving credit for their contributions, the General will enable the troops to take ownership of and responsibility for their own success. He knows that troops who feel weak, incompetent, and insignificant will consistently underperform. Therefore, the General must increase their sense of self-confidence, self-determination, and personal effectiveness to make them more powerful and enhance their possibility of success. General Savage employed several leadership principles to empower his squad:
Skinner. This process of operant conditioning encompasses the idea that behaviors are fulfilled to either gain reinforcement or evade punishment. This correlates to how incentives suggest that an individuals’ actions are directed towards achieving an award (Cherry). Chapter 1 of Freakonomics relates to managerial accounting by addressing incentives and how they influence behavior. Internal controls typically protect an organization from fraud or abuse. They govern a company’s financial system and monitor procedures. Therefore, with both situations (teachers and sumo wrestlers) described in Chapter 1, internal controls are necessary to monitor cheating and try to stop
In this model leaders “select” specific behaviors that are best for the needs of his goal. According to the author there are four behaviors in the path goal theory that a leader could follow. One is the directive leadership, where the leader informs the followers what is expected from them. Another is the supportive leadership, that is when the leader shows concern for the followers and have friendly interactions with them. Third is participative leadership, when the captain gets involved with his team to achieve the goal as a group. Finally, is the achievement leadership; occurs when the leader demand from the followers challenging goals so they perform their best. This is not useful in Lamatepec’s high school soccer team because the captain should contribute the same or even more to the team as his teammates and with this model that would not be

A legal discussion of the contractual breaches and their related legal elements will be examined in this section. Some of the legal issues surrounding the contractual breaches include, the legal implications of the Uniform Commercial Code (U.C.C.), the defendant’s engagement in and outputs contract while under a requirements contract with my company, the doctrine of estoppel, and the issues of good faith and fair dealing. The definitions and some of the legal implications of the implied and requirements contracts were discussed in the preceding sections. An implied contract is defined as a “contract that is established by the conduct of a party rather than by the party’s written or spoken words” (Kubasek, Brennan, & Browne, 2015,
When then leader measures what was supposed to happen with what actually happened, the leader and involved personnel will then find out if the job was completed to standard. Also the leader needs to know from the personnel involved, what to keep doing and what can be done different to get those same or better results. All feedback should be honest and factual.

Coaching is not an easy task and figuring out the best way to lead and guide employees can be overwhelming and challenging. Alex is now in a position where she has to be a motivator, leader, and a coach to several employees. She needs to understand the concept of coaching and the behaviors that go along with her coaching style. The concept of coaching helps develop and grow employees to achieve performance improvement, but it also helps the managers see how the employees embrace their job tasks and asses their results in comparison to the overall mission of the company (Bawany, 2015). Therefore, Alex needs to look back at her previous managers and determine what qualities and behaviors they possessed in order to improve her performance. Also, she must look at what personality traits James has and look at his previous managers to see which manager coached James to perform the best while working for the company.

The method of applying transactional theory nails this way of teaching. The balance of rewards and punishments were carefully applied but he ensured to continue maximizing great experiences since human nature tends to want to be surrounded by it. My stepfather gave us his selfless service and seeks no recognition for what he did; he was worthy of it. Appling humility and being humble is something that was given to me by my stepfather and I see it being applied to this day. I find it to be a very passive type of leadership but with an understanding that concise affirmative approach is not too far
Self-disciplined people are masters of their impulses. This mastery comes from the habit of doing the right thing. Self-discipline allows Army leaders to do the right thing regardless of the consequences for them or their subordinates. Under the extreme stress of combat, you and your team might be cut off and alone, fearing for your lives, and having to act without guidance or knowledge of what’s going on around you. Still, you—the leader—must think clearly and act reasonably. Self-discipline is the key to this kind of behavior.
