Developing Goals and Interventions to Meet Client Needs

Throughout this course, you have learned about the different types of community programs. Many of the programs you have discussed started with an initial needs assessment. A needs assessment helps programs identify the problems faced by a community and then guides in the development of programming and interventions. As a human services professional, it is important to understand the importance of accurately assessing a client’s needs and then determining which interventions are critical to long-term success.

For this Assignment, please respond to the following:

• Identify two unmet needs or problems faced by families.
  • Provide a brief summary of each need or problem (e.g., demographic information, frequency of occurrence, and so on).
• Using the two unmet needs or problems identified above, create one long-term and two short-term goals that you could implement with a family to assist with meeting their needs or solving their problems.
  • Briefly discuss the specific changes you expect by implementing these goals.
• Based on your responses to the questions above, identify two interventions that could be implemented to assist a family with meeting their goals.
  • Briefly discuss why you selected each intervention and explain how it can lead to long-term success of a family.

The link between employee attitudes and job performance has been described as the “Holy Grail” of organizational psychology (Landy, 1989). On one hand, positive employee attitudes can lead to exceptional job performance, elevated teamwork, and the achievement of organizational goals. On the other hand, negative employee attitudes can detract from job performance, poison team morale, and limit organizational effectiveness.

For the first Discussion this week, you considered factors that affect employee attitudes. In this Discussion, you will build on your learning and consider how employee attitudes impact team and organizational effectiveness and what I/O psychology practitioners can do to improve negative employee attitudes.

To prepare for this Discussion:

• Review this week’s Learning Resources. Pay particular attention to how attitudes, such as job satisfaction, organizational commitment, employee engagement, job involvement, and organizational citizenship, impact individual and organizational outcomes. Also, consider the roles of perceptions, emotions, and stress on employee attitudes and organizational outcomes.
• Reflect on a situation in which your own attitude has impacted team and/or organizational effectiveness and the factors that might have exacerbated the situation.
• Search Walden’s library to identify peer-reviewed articles on how to improve negative employee job attitudes. Based on the articles you find and the Learning Resources this week, consider strategies that you would implement to improve negative employee attitudes.
