The census asks questions of people in homes and group living situations, including how many people live or stay in each home, and the sex, age and race of each person. The goal is to count everyone once, only once, and in the right place.

It is mandated by Article I, Section 2 of the Constitution and takes place every 10 years. The data collected by the decennial census determine the number of seats each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives and is also used to distribute hundreds of billions of dollars in federal funds to local communities.

Discuss how the four areas of cultural intelligence aid a leader in understanding culture as well as intercultural efforts.
Dovator [93]

It is extremely important for a leader to be able to deal with cultural aspects and to be able to better understand how certain cultures work.

The culture of a nation, society or region has considerable relevance to the culture of organizations and, consequently, much of the success or failure of organizational programs and management method implementations may be associated with disregard of national traits.

Denying the fact may induce the individual (professional, researcher or scholar) to biased conclusions. By no means should the traits be given full importance, but disregarding them can be a mistake.

Thus, organizations are social institutions that have their history and develop their own culture, but considered part of a broader context of national culture.

The term cultural intelligence to determine this ability to interpret the foundations of cultural interactions, the development of attentive posture to these interactions, and the ability to adapt to different intercultural situations, while avoiding turning on 'autopilot'.

sammy [17]

Answer:

D No, because the citizenship requirement is not necessary to achieve a compelling state interest.

Explanation:

Option A is incorrect, because the Tenth Amendment reserves to the states power not granted to the federal government.

Option B is incorrect, because it states the standard that the Supreme Court has applied to primary and secondary school teachers.

Option C is also incorrect, because it states the wrong standard.

Hence, Option D is correct, because a state generally may not discriminate against aliens or foreigners absent a compelling state interest, and no compelling interest is served by prohibiting aliens or foreigners from teaching at a state university.

Answer:b) voluntary simplicity

People who live this way believe we are free to have enough but not more than what we need.

Instead of looking for expensive goods, cars and big houses they choose simple life where one can own just one car( less pollution ) in an average house
