This was the larger change I was able to produce, and it occurred because I was able to rally the tenants around this particular issue.
It is critical to discern exactly how the nature of this change coincided with some of the core attributes of transformational leadership. The change I was able to produce got my neighbors to effectively consider a higher form of needs as identified by Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Most of the tenants were simply thinking about their basic physiological needs -- defined by Maslow as the bottom rung of his hierarchy (Mathes, 1981, p. 69)-- when they were apathetic and unresponsive to the parking situation. No one wanted to cause any commotion and present any problems with where they lived. However, after I was able to convince them to follow me and assert their rights to park where they lived, they began to think about a higher set of needs defined by Maslow as those pertaining to security and belongingness (Mathes, 1981, p. 69). Therefore, the nature of the change produced was certainly transformational in nature because it cultivated my neighbors to concern themselves with higher needs on Maslow's hierarchy. Compelling others to do so is regarded as one of the chief characteristics of transformational leadership (Mccleskey, 2014, p. 120).
Perhaps more importantly, the transformational style of leadership was effective in this instance because of my specific characteristics as a leader. I have always been told that I am fairly charismatic. Furthermore, I have lived in this complex (which houses approximately 50 residents) for longer than all but six of them. As such, I know the majority of the tenants and, on an individual basis, have always had a good rapport with them. Therefore, I was able to utilize my relationships with people as individuals, in addition to my charisma and admitted charm with some of the male tenants, to get them to believe in my vision. Charisma is an innate characteristic of transformational leadership (Mccleskey, 2014, p. 120).
The vision I presented and which took hold of my neighbors was a relatively simple one, but one that I used to inspire and ultimately motivate them to follow me. I devised the idea that each tenant should write a number on the space in which they usually park. Doing so would allow them to effectively claim that space as their own. I also took the initiative to print out computer generated replicas of those numbers…
Project Scope There is a lot of thought and planning that goes into any apartment building complex or building. The depth and breadth of the project will obviously depend on the facets and traits of the desired finished project.

Many times, police officers are attacked or the prisoners themselves are injured during this booking process. The deaths and injuries, specifically of prisoners belonging to ethnic minorities, have triggered conflicts between the police and the community in recent years. Studies showed that the separation of the arresting officer and the suspect appeared to lessen the rate of reoccurrence. The studies recommended an evaluation of procedures and reinforcement (Community Relations
