The likelihood of experiencing stress permeates every aspect of life including our workplace, friends, and family. Furthermore, we exist in physical bodies that are designed to react to stress. The reaction to stress can be instigated by anything that generates a state of alarm within our bodies. The higher the extent of mobilization of defense, the greater the possibility of experiencing over stresses and stress damage. I believe that there are significant benefits of slowing.

It first examines the scholarly literature already published on the phenomenon of Trump’s appeal among evangelicals. It looks at how a new theology of leadership within the framework of political theology is required to understand evangelicals’ support of Trump. Interviews with members of Trump’s base of supporters were also conducted and analysis of their responses showed that many of them viewed Trump as a leader appointed by God to subdue the evangelicals’ political enemies. They likened Trump to King Cyrus, the pagan who liberated the Hebrews. Trump’s character and moral failings aside, evangelicals admired him for his willingness to attack their political opponents.

Social media is the catalyst that is continually changing customer relationships and making ‘them more interactive, open, and collaborative. Today’s customers have more options than ever before in terms of how they choose to learn about that new products and services as well as gain insight into areas of interest. For marketers to be successful, they need to realize that their customers’ preferences are changing quickly. Agilityas opposed to formal, often static, processes from marketing and selling standpoint are essential if a company is to survive in an increasingly competitive global economic environment. The purpose of this dissertation is to show how the foundational elements of social media, including its core building blocks of presence, sharing, conversations, identity, groups, relationships, and reputation, combine to redefine the brand of any business, large or small. How these elements are synchronized around a common marketing and sales objective is what matters most. This dissertation also provides insight into how quickly the value chain of businesses are shifting to become more customer-centric as a result of social media’s pervasive influence. No longer can the traditional methods of marketing be relied on, weeks or months of lag time often existing between the completion of a program and its results being reported. Social media, due to its digital nature, reports the return on investment (ROI) immediately with analytics. Small businesses have the speed and time to value this advantage is because analytics and agility are being emphasized over the sheer size of a given business.

The evaluation entailed surveying some of the Club's employees to get their perspective and understanding of its organizational culture. The survey was carried out using OCAI, which was personally emailed to the employees. The sample primarily consisted of employees working in different areas or divisions of Club One. These diverse employees were targeted because they would help provide significant insights into the Club's organizational culture. The assessment would help develop a holistic view of the organization and its culture by incorporating different employees. Besides, the different employees' inclusion helped to ensure that the assessment covers the entire organization rather than focusing on one department or area.
