Part 1: Deployment, Staffing, Training, and Procedures for Fire Investigation I think that our department is successful in deployment, staffing, training, and developing effective procedures for fire investigation. Our fire department’s framework for fire investigation is effective because it focuses on primary and secondary fires. In this sense, the department can identify fire causes and origins by following the framework. The department team consists of highly trained and experienced individuals who can investigate the circumstances that might cause a fire. The investigation involves recording the information and evidence collected from the fire scene to develop accurate measures for fire prevention. The information helps the department determine whether fire prevention aligns with the company’s structure. I feel that the department is prepared for fire investigation because of its collaboration with other fire agencies to ensure accurate investigation. While the fire is often destructive and consumes the initial evidence, the department is ready to collaborate with various fire agencies to improve fire investigation skills and knowledge. The department is also ready to involve law enforcement agencies in fire investigation. In essence, the…

Photograph Project My subject matter in this photograph is a flower corolla. I chose this flower because it fascinated me with its bright, beautiful, unusual, and delicate nature. What are the specific formal elements that you focused on in this photograph? When taking this photograph, I considered several formal elements such as light to ensure that the uppermost part of the flower is brightest. I also considered shape so that both straight-edged and curvy areas of the flower can be seen clearly. The texture is another element that I focused on and light to ensure white balance. Lastly, I considered a focus where I took only the petals of the flower. Would you classify your photograph as representational, abstract, or non-representational?

The flower photograph that I took explicitly reveals the representative properties of the flower to the viewer. Therefore, this photograph provides a more accurate image of…

Leadership philosophies often include specific components connected to management theories, attitudes, guiding standards, and behavior. Its structure, however, varies specifically with organization management. Various forms of leadership philosophy are applied in companies (Fiaz, Muhammad, Qin Su et al. 150).  Among them include democratic, autocratic, laissez-faire, strategic, transformational, and transactional leadership philosophies. Hence, this essay aims to discuss practical leadership philosophy that favors shared vision, encourages employee growth, and manages organization conflict adequately. Laissez-faire Leadership Philosophy Laissez-faire is one of the most-effective forms of leadership philosophy favoring employee engagements and conflict management entirely in the organization. In government, laissez-faire leadership philosophy provides equal power to the leader and the team at hand. Generally, the team expects little supervision from the leaders. While the leaders focus on high matters, employees are guided by shared visions and are challenged to share equivalent growth. A laissez-faire leader highly applies a self-rule style (Puni, Albert, Agyemang, et al. 5). They empower employees…
