Monetary policies Monetary policies involve the measures that the central banks of any country take into account t control credit and cash flow in the economy. The main goal of monetary policies is to achieve an economy’s particular monetary objectives, depending on economic conditions. Developing counties base their monetary policies on economic development and stability. Developed and wealthy nations such as the U.K and U.S.A base their monetary policies on controlling deflation, inflation, equal distribution of credit, decreasing unemployment, and improving living standards. Monetary policies have a great effect on economic and social conditions. For example, monetary policies put in place dictate the prices of goods and interest rates. Monetary policies are implemented through cause-effect chains because these decisions affect commercial banks’ reserves and money circulation in an economy. A cause-effect chain impacts money circulation, alters interest rates, investments, aggregate demand, and real GDP equilibrium. Changes in money circulation impact interest rates, which in return, affect investment spending and aggregate demand. Aggregate demand affects economic output, employment, and inflation. Efficacy of monetary policies is realized when prices are stabilized because…

A Comprehensive Clinical Practice Guideline for Treating Tobacco Use and Dependence One of the key components that clinicians and other health care providers need to do to help patients, according to guidelines aimed at providing and supporting effective treatments for tobacco use and dependence, is to encourage the motivation to quit.

A conversation A conversation is an exchange of ideas between two or more people. The participants of a conversation may either be people of the same gender or different genders. According to Deborah Tannen, gender differences contribute significantly to how we speak, and the inferences made after the conversation. For instance, if one says ‘come with me!’ that message would signal that the speaker has high status or the speaker is angry. Secondly, If the speaker said, ‘would you please come with me if you don’t mind?’, the message would signal great respect and honor to the message’s receiver. Thirdly, if the speaker said, ‘I would be honored if you come with me,’ the message would signal great concern for others and consideration. The three different case scenarios have a similar goal: the receiver of the message accompanying the speaker. However, the interpretations of the three messages are very different, which affects the effectiveness of the message. The differences will even be more significant if the speaker and the message receiver are of different genders. According to Deborah Tannen, female…

Do you favor the Kantian or the US Constitutional conception of free speech and why? Public reason is the process of thought, which focuses on communicating with other stakeholders to arrive at a collective decision to be delivered to the public. Public reason is mostly associated with the state or government; it gives an implication that an individual is not in control rather but is open for anyone. On the other hand, private reason implicates the specific individuals perfumes certain assigned tasks related to a given vocation. In an attempt to answer the question about the meaning of enlightenment, Kant came up with an argument supported by the public and private use of reason. Kant chose to apply a philosophical approach to so help solve a political question. Kant offers the public use of reason as the tool for society’s contemplation. His argument is based on the way he distinguishes between private and public use of reason. According…

Independence I believe everything in my life begins from the place of the values I hold dear. Personal values reflect how I lead myself and reflect on the story, which I believe and what I tell myself daily. When thinking of this, I remember a recent retreat where I intended to place the term ‘values’ in different contexts. Within the course of the retreat, which happens in the summer of last year, I understood that my personal values are indeed the convictions about what I find desirable and important. These values help to establish my personal desired characteristics. They help me prioritize tasks, make credible and ethical decisions, prioritize different tasks, and, more importantly, develop credibility as a leader. It can be noted that instrumental values are values that often reference ideas and beliefs marked by the desirable patterns of the behavior. () The instrumental value focuses on competence or moral values, which include independence, responsibility, utilitarianism, helpfulness, and intelligence. One of the core values that cultivate an integral part of my leadership practice is independence and imagination. Independence Independence…
