Do you think this committee could have prevented this conflict over getting its work done by the deadline? If so, how? If not, why not?

/in /by

Please write an APA and refence Response to this.  Does not need to be seperated by questions.  It is just an overall respone.  300 words

  1. Do you think this committee could have prevented this conflict over getting its work done by the deadline? If so, how? If not, why not?

Yes, the conflict could have been prevented if they took out of their mind the “we have time” and started working right away. Also, it shows a lack of motivations from the team and even doing double work for the reports that were completed already; it shows the little attention that is was already perform. They also seem unorganized because it never said that Marianna sends them an e-mail about the wedding, she just told them during the meetings, so the person that writes the notes did not catch it, or it was easy to forget.

  1. What could the committee chair have done early in the committee’s life to ensure that its members were in agreement about its work plan?

The team seems that was form but never went to the “storming face-period of adjustment, and now they are bracing the consequences of not having the job on time and missing a person. Also, the team lacks a good dynamic for example “quality management of teams keeps the process organized, moves the agenda forward, informs the members and organization and maintains structure” (Rubino, L. G., Esparza, S. J., & Chassiakos, Y., 2014).

  1. Should the committee include Marianna’s name on its report? Why or why not?

Yes, they should include her name because she was willing to help and get the work done. Marianna did tell them several times about the wedding, yes did tell them but does not say that she e-mail them about the wedding and that would have been proof to defend herself.  She did remind them about the deadline and them to move forward but was not being listened. On a side note, if I were Marianna, I would have started gathering the reports, data, and information needed. Then send it to all the team members showing that yes, she’s leaving but she did not waste any time, and they can use the information.

Portfolio Project #1 provides data from a hypothetical organization. The data can be found in the Modules tab underneath the assignment.

You will create a strategic plan that aligns the human resources (HR) function with the organization’s mission, vision, and objectives. The overall scope of the Portfolio Project is to create a “Shared Services” structure for HR that will be housed at the organization’s corporate offices.

Milestone Deliverables due Weeks 2, 4 and 5

Week 2: Portfolio Milestone: Outline (25 points of the final Portfolio grade)

Prepare an outline of your plan project and submit it to your instructor for review. Please use APA format and include a two- to three-sentence description of each section.

Week 4: Portfolio Milestone: Annotated Bibliography (75 points of the final Portfolio grade)

A solid foundation of research will support the theoretical base and practical applications of your strategic plan. Prepare an annotated bibliography of the 10 or more sources you have selected. Submit the completed document to your instructor for review.

Week 5: Portfolio Milestone: Purpose Statement (50 points of the final Portfolio grade)

Most of us are aware of the term “purpose statement” but are unsure of its real meaning within an organization. It is a statement describing the organization’s purpose, or the reason for its existence. The purpose of an organization reflects a desired position in the marketplace. It should accurately answer to the questions below. The purpose statement is the written summary of those answers.

  • Who are we?
  • What do we do?
  • For whom do we do this?
  • How do we know when we are getting it done?

The purpose statement is the written summary of those answers. The most effective purpose statements are short, concise, and direct. A good purpose statement is between 2–3 sentences.

Answer the four questions above and create a purpose statement for your HR department. Submit the answers to the four questions and the purpose statement to your instructor for review.

NOTE: At this stage, you will need to name your company and decide the service they provide or products they manufacture.

For all Portfolio Milestone assignments: Although you will not earn points the weeks you submit these deliverables, they are required components of the Portfolio Project and you will lose points on your final project grade if you fail to submit these assignments as required by the end of the weeks they are due. See the Portfolio Project grading rubric on the Course Information page for details.

During a global career succession assessment of leadership talent pipeline, a candidate was asked to complete a personality/behavioral tendency profile.

/in /by

During a global career succession assessment of leadership talent pipeline, a candidate was asked to complete a personality/behavioral tendency profile.  The candidate asked to speak to the program administrator about the validity of the assessment.  The assessment is based on first responses to several sets of word values.  The instructions were to respond with first instinct to the set of words listed in several different categories.  The candidate stated that some of the words could have different interpretations based on values, beliefs, and cultural origin.  Therefore, the validity of the assessment could be biased in terms of results/outcomes. The program administrator removed the weighting of the assessment (not part of the overall assessment scoring) to be used for informational and team building purposes only.

Use the above information to answer the following in 700 to 1,050 words:

  • Analyze whether the candidate has a valid discrimination concern about the assessment.
  • Determine what EEOC laws could potentially be at risk of violation.
  • Evaluate how the assessment could be altered so that it could still be used for the program.
  • Cite all sources according to APA formatting guidelines.

appropriate use of the medical system and abuse of the medical system.

/in /by

Let us explore appropriate use of the medical system and abuse of the medical system. When should an individual go to the emergency room as compared to their Primary Care Physician? There are forms of abuse on both sides of the stethoscope! At times physicians have been known to “Up-Charge” to increase their reimbursement from insurance. There have also been times when the standard of care, or care offered, to a given patient is different based upon the type of insurance, or even whether they have insurance. Individuals also abuse the medical system. Some patients seek services that are unnecessary as a form of drug seeking, either for personal use or to sell illegally. Some patients have allowed another individual to use their medical insurance information to receive covered services fraudulently. Seeking care in the emergency room for routine or non-emergent medical concerns is another common abuse.

As you can see, there are plenty of instances on both sides of the stethoscope. Remember to be respectful and professional as you discuss this issue.

Gender Intelligence and Cognitive Abilities

/in /by

Discussion: Gender Intelligence and Cognitive Abilities

For centuries, it has been assumed that men and women are different when it comes to certain cognitive abilities, and even intelligence itself. For example, men have been stereotyped as better at spatial abilities (such as, the abilities used in video games) and women have been stereotyped as better at verbal abilities (such as, the abilities used in communicating.) However, recent research is blurry when it comes to definitively stating that one gender is better at a specific cognitive ability than the other. Some intelligence and cognitive ability assessments suggest gender differences; however, it is still to be determined if the findings really do show that there are differences in cognitive abilities and intelligence or if there are other factors at play, including testing flaws, interpretation bias, and cultural or environmental influencers.

Take video game playing as an example. The poster child for video games has traditionally been the 17-year-old boy. Since more boys than girls have usually played video games, society has assumed that boys are better at the associated visual abilities. However, there may be other factors at play. For example, video games in the past typically featured male-related topics, such as blowing up things, fighting wars, and dominating women. The characters in these games were predominately male and the stories were based around males rescuing damsels in distress (except for the occasional female superhero.) More recent game developers have changed their tactics. Game topics have changed. Female characters and the ability to customize characters have increased. Online access has improved the social aspect of games. The result is that females now make up close to half of video game players.

So, do you really know if boys are better at the visual and spatial skills required for video games or are the games just designed for boys? Though video game playing is just one simple example, these types of questions are important when exploring the research and stereotypes related to gender differences in cognitive abilities and intelligence.

As you read and think about gender differences in intelligence and cognitive abilities, consider the following:

Could it be that the ways in which males and females are raised impacts their self-confidence and subsequent success or failure on intelligence and cognitive ability assessments? If you are a female and constantly hear that girls are not that great in math, is it possible that you behave accordingly? Perhaps “knowing” that girls are not good at math has discouraged girls from taking higher math courses in school and from pursuing careers involving math abilities.

Could it be that boys are raised to throw balls from a very early age which, in turn, develops their spatial and visual abilities over girls? Then, when they are assessed in these abilities, could it be that they score higher than females only because they have had more practice rather than a better innate ability? Could it be that there has been a gender prejudice over the past decades that led to the actual assessments themselves being biased?

Are the differences in cognitive abilities the same for every culture? For example, are females in Western cultures different in their math abilities than females in Eastern cultures? Are they stereotyped differently?

Could the male brain and the female brain be so different that there truly are significant differences in cognitive abilities?

The research is inconclusive. Many studies suggest that there are differences in cognitive abilities between the genders while others show that the differences are minimal, if they exist at all. Perhaps the more significant question is, “How do the perceived or real differences impact individuals and society?” And, “Are these perceived or real differences ultimately changing society?” These questions may be the more important issues in social psychology.

To prepare for this Discussion:

  • Review Chapter 7 in the course text,Gender: Psychological Perspectives. Focus both on what the various studies and assessment results say about gender differences in specific cognitive abilities, as well as potential factors that might influence these differences.
  • Review the articles, “The Role of Stereotype Threats in Undermining Girls’ and Women’s Performance and Interest in STEM Fields”, and “Gender Differences in Scholastic Achievement: A Meta-Analysis.”
  • Identify one cognitive ability that is stereotypically different in males and females. Think about its importance in the world (i.e., education, industry, home life, etc.). Also, think about how the stereotyping of this cognitive ability impacts individuals and society as a whole.

With these thoughts in mind:

By Day 3

Posta description of the cognitive ability you selected and how it is stereotyped by gender and influenced by culture. Then, explain the importance and use of this cognitive ability in the world (education, industry or business, home life, etc.); and how the stereotyping of it affects individuals and society as a whole. Finish your post by discussing whether you think nature or nurture is the cause of this perceived gender difference.

Note:Put the cognitive ability you selected in the first line of your post. You will be asked to respond to a colleague who selected a different cognitive ability than you did.Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the Learning Resources.
