What causes systemic and individual change?


​Systemic change is something that is inevitable. There are many details that pertain to systemic change, but they will change regardless. It takes an individual to set a trend to cause either positive or negative change. In this scenario, we focused on individuals who attempted to lead a systemic change. For example, during the time that Teddy Roosevelt was in office, he wanted to stop the overwhelming amount of monopolies. These monopolies were created by large companies and trusts. These companies used devilish ways to get money. They would force their buyers into purchasing something they did not want in order to get something they did want. In our visual presentation, we focused on Barack Obama and Theodore Roosevelt. They both wanted to create change in the economy and government. Theodore wanted to spread money around rather than companies hogging hard earned money from citizens. Barack Obama is trying to balance out the percentage comparison of high class to low class citizens. Initially, the gap between rich and poor in America is not only devastating but continually increasing. Obama is an individual wanting to create systemic change.

1. Explain your choice of presentation format.

Katherine and i chose to use a poster format for it is visually appealing as well as informative. we decided to leave a lot of words out and compare the repeating events of history through 2 quotes. One from our present day president, Barack Obama, as well as a quote from a more historic president, Theodore Roosevelt. Both of these individuals were in the process of creating systemic change involving the nation's economy. 

2. Two sentences about your answer to the essential question.

Systemic Change is a process that can be voiced through one individual, but the numbers behind the individual must be a majority. Systemic change is usually for the benefit for the majority's needs. 

3. What questions do you sill have about business in America?

The point of business is to do what you can to make the business successful, so why cant these companies use these methods of earning money?
