Allgemein » Kwame ultimately

On January 8th Cincinnati Bengals Jersey , 2004, eight women and eight men arrived in Manhattan ready to participate in the unique NBC reality show The Apprentice, where the prize for the final player was a $250,000 a year job working for Donald Trump. The participants were divided into two groups and given 15 different weekly business challenges such as running a lemonade stand, refurbishing an apartment to rent Calvin Ridley Jersey , and running a well known restaurant.

Each week, the winning team received prizes such as a helicopter tour of New York, a meeting with George Steinbrenner at Yankee聮s Stadium, and dinner at the famous 21 Club. The Project Manager for the losing team would select two team members to join him in 聯The Boardroom,?where 聯The Donald?would 聯fire?one of them Julio Jones Jersey , ending his or her participation in the game.

The all-women team easily beat the guys?team in the first four challenges. These landslide victories caused The Donald to say he was starting to think he 聯may never hire a man again.? The teams were then re-divided, so both genders were represented on each team.

So, why did the women do so well in the beginning of the game, then lose so badly?

There are four reasons why the girls lost:

SURFACE ISSUES:

The women placed too much emphasis on their external appearance and did not trust their internal strengths. In fact, after they won the first four competitions Deion Sanders Jersey , they were reprimanded by Mr. Trump and his trusted advisor, Carolyn for their inappropriate behavior. They were told that they were 聯smart, dynamic, attractive women who shouldn't have to cross the line of sexuality to win.? Unfortunately, a tough negotiation with a high-end car dealer in week 11 showed that Katrina was unable to dig deeper than her good looks. She learned that batting her eyelashes and flashing a flirtatious smile may sell lemonade Atlanta Falcons Jersey , but were ineffective at closing the 聯big deals.?br >
COOPERATION ISSUES:

The women worked well together in big groups, but their cooperation with other team members waned as the groups got smaller. Many of the women struggled with their own personal feelings versus was best for the team. This was obvious from all of the arguments among the women. Amy, the last woman in the competition, did a great job of staying focused on the team goal and doing what was best for her team. She didn聮t seem to take things personally or step on other players in an effort to stand out. Erica, Katrina Tremaine Edmunds Jersey , Heidi and Omarosa however, often allowed personal feelings toward other team members to get in the way of their effectiveness as leaders, which eventually led to their demise.

CONTROL ISSUES:

On several occasions, though the women knew they were correct, they let their ideas take a backseat to their male teammates. For example Josh Allen Jersey , Amy knew the best way to rent out the 90th floor Penthouse suite at Trump World Tower was to have the potential client describe his or her perfect layout for the room. Nick felt the best approach was to describe a suggested layout to the client. The two briefly discussed their opposing strategies after Nick聮s approach caused several potential buyers to leave without signing contracts, though Amy gave up the argument quickly and Nick continue using his ineffective strategy.

The women were more comfortable challenging ideas of the other women, but rarely defended their ideas to the men. This inability or refusal to defend their own ideas worked against them in The Boardroom. In fact, Trump specifically fired Kristi, the first woman to leave the show Ed Oliver Jersey , because she did not defend herself or her decisions as a Project Manager.

UNBALANCED ISSUES: The Donald

The statement 聯all men are created equal?is true, but it聮s misleading, because all men are created equal ?but men and women, well... they are completely different ?as were the criteria used to measure the men and the women during this show.

Let聮s look at some of the inconsistencies:

TEAM SUPPORT:

> Nick blatantly refused to support his team members during the restaurant competition, which may have been a leading reason why his team lost. This behavior did not negatively affect his status in the game.

> Tammy was fired after week seven for not supporting her team and her project manager.

HONESTY:

> Troy used questionable sales tactics and boldly lied to potential clients during the sales process Lorenzo Alexander Jersey , one of whom actually walked out because he felt like he was 聯being hustled.?br >
> Omarosa was openly reprimanded by Trump for lying to a vendor and to her team.

> Kwame ultimately lost the last challenge for not firing Omarosa for lying to him.

FRIENDSHIP & BUSINESS:

> In week eight, The Donald reprimanded Erica when she did not select Katrina to join her in The Boardroom.
