    As proven in Pygmalion‚ the novel by George Bernard Shaw and "Pygmalion"‚ the Greek myth‚ neither a creator‚ nor or anyone‚ should control the fate of another‚ be it a creation or simply another human\.. It is neither moral‚ nor possible to control another’s fate‚ and arguable that one cannot even control their own fate. These stories are filled with examples of the negative results that come of people attempting to control other humans. As Shaw would doubtlessly agree‚ a person attempting to control

    She’s All That is the latest example of a series of movies based on the Pygmalion myth‚ an occurrence that illustrates Hollywood’s long fascination with this myth. The original Pygmalion story is found in Ovid. Pygmalion is the story of a gifted young sculpter who is a woman hater. Ironically‚ the sculpture that most fascinates him and that he puts all of his genius into is a statue of a woman. The statue is exquisite‚ but Pygmalion wasn’t content. He kept tweaking the statue‚ working on it until it

    The Pygmalion Effect Interestingly enough‚ ancient Greek mythology creates an archetype for a present day social phenomenon with an artist named Pygmalion. He carved a perfect woman from Ivory and fell in love with his own creation‚ naming it Galatea. Pygmalion desperately wished she was alive. With goddess Venus’s blessings and his true belief in his creation‚ Galatea was brought to life. Though the name originates from this allegory‚ the more precise nature of the Pygmalion effect is demonstrated

    SUCCESSFUL SEMINAR Introduction of Seminar Seminars are forums in which issues are raised and explored‚ but not necessarily resolved; they require you to think‚ to practice the skills of analysis and synthesis‚ and by doing so‚ possibly leave with more and better ideas than the ones with which you came. “Seminars are not a place for the transmission of data. Ideally they go beyond the sharing of facts and probe the depths of the subject matter at hand.” The success of the seminar is dependent

    Pygmalion in Management: Reaction Most managers have a common sense about the impact of expectation. They understand higher expectations motivate subordinates to perform better. But when it comes to applying the theory in daily life‚ only a few managers hold the magic power in hands and could change other people’s destinies.

    Apart from being problem plays ‚ Pygmalion and A Doll ’s house deal with the common theme of transformation of individuals . In Pygmalion‚ Shaw explores the idea that if a person is born in a low class and gets the opportunity to be trained in the ways of correct speech and manners then he or she can easily come to the social and intellectual level of the higher classes . He proves this by transforming Eliza Doolittle‚ a poor flower girl from the slums‚ to a sophisticated woman by changing her speech
