Did the creative woman benefit from family support or professional networks or was she excluded from them?
Although the power structures are different from contemporary society, the dynamics of power and privilege are evident in the life and work of poet Phillis Wheatley, composer Barbara Strozzi (1619–1677), and artist Betty Ratcliffe (c. 1735–c. 1810). Ironically, the young Wheatley lived with limited privilege, but still enjoyed some advantages for a black woman of her time. A slave by virtue of her race, she was privileged within the Wheatley’s home to become an educated woman. Barbara Strozzi, on the other hand, was the daughter of a Venetian poet (but not a member of the nobility), so enjoyed the literary circles of her father. Another example was Betty Ratcliffe who was a servant by virtue of her class but encouraged by her employer. The essential point here, however, is the way the complex identities of these women impacted their work.
For this journal assignment, analyze in three to four pages how the dynamics of privilege and power played a part in woman’s creative expression during the 1600s and 1700s (sometimes called the Baroque era). In your discussion of power and privilege, address at least one of the following categories in addition to gender: race, class, or ethnicity. As you reflect on this topic, consider some of the following relevant questions:
· Did the creative woman benefit from family support or professional networks or was she excluded from them?
· Were training, education, and networking available to her?
· If she did challenge existing power structures (for example, religion, social custom, laws, etc.), how successful was she in doing so?
Use supporting examples from at least two creative women from different genres (for example, music and sculpture) of this era from our required or recommended resources. Be sure to provide examples from their work (poems, paintings, sculpture, music, excerpts from larger writings, etc.) to support your discussion.

Case Study – Navy Fighter Aircraft
Consider a scenario in which the Navy began to receive a new fighter aircraft for its aircraft carrier operations. Upon delivery of the first few aircraft, it was found the tailhook system was not reliable. The system failed to connect to the arresting barrier several times causing near-catastrophic accidents. The Navy refused delivery of any further aircraft until the problem was corrected. Payments to the aircraft manufacturer were also stopped. This problem had the potential to be of great loss of revenue to the manufacturer.
Assumptions:
· The Navy expected a fast response to resolve the problem.
· An engineering project was established to redesign and deliver a modified tail hook system.
· Navy quality expectations were very high.
· The project engineering team members are competent.
Respond to the following question pertaining to the principles of project management during the project execution phase: Since the engineers are competent and the work is within their field, how closely do you think the project manager should monitor their progress during the redesign project? Why? You should only be concerned with how closely should the project manager monitor the project team work. This has to be clear. What type of management style do you think would be appropriate in this case? There is no need to go into the hazards involved, the system technology. what should be done, testing needed, etc. Just how closely should the project manager monitor the project team work, Every day over the shoulder on the floor, weekly/daily status meetings, MBO, another system/approach?
