discussion obstacles to strategic financial and fiscal planning

/in /by

Every organization, including governments, must survive in an environment full of opportunities and threats. Governments must find ways around threats and take advantage of opportunities that arise. Complicating the existence of government organizations is the fact that they are open systems that are affected by both external and internal forces. External forces include economic or political opportunities and obstacles. Internal forces relate to human resource strengths or weaknesses, or other inherent conditions of the organization.

In this Discussion, you focus on internal and external factors that may affect the development of a successful strategic financial plan in a government organization.

Review this week’s Learning Resources. Then, select a public organization and consider how what you read about factors affecting strategic financial planning relates to this specific organization.

With these thoughts in mind:

By Day 4

Post a brief description of the government organization you selected. Then, explain the internal and external factors that might impede the development of a successful financial strategic plan. Provide examples of at least two internal factors and one external factor, and explain how they could impact the organization. Then, identify how these obstacles may be overcome.

Final Project
To complete the following final paper, go to this week’s Final Project link in the left navigation. 

Crime Prevention

The purpose of the Final Project is to demonstrate your understanding of crime prevention programs and the role crime prevention plays in the overall criminal justice system. You may select a crime prevention program that addresses law enforcement, the courts, or corrections; or it may be a comprehensive program that addresses all three. The program may address the adult justice system, juvenile justice systems, or both. 

For the purposes of this assignment, assume you are preparing a proposal to a city, county, or state governmental body to recommend the implementation of a crime prevention program within their jurisdiction. You need to demonstrate the value of the crime prevention program and its effectiveness in reducing crime, which in turn will reduce the overall costs to the jurisdiction and justify the additional expenditures to the community.  

Your proposal must include:

  1. A summary of the jurisdiction (i.e., city, county, or state) and the portion of the criminal justice system your proposal is designed to address.
  2. An analysis of the current trends from three comparable cities in population size, utilizing the SARA model and the Crime Analysis Triangle. (Note: Crime Analysis for Problem Solvers in 60 Small Steps, Steps 7 and 8). You will analyze the data from three similar jurisdictions and compare it to national data.
  3. A determination of the appropriate crime prevention strategy for the jurisdiction based on this analysis.
  4. A review of academic literature and studies on the various crime prevention programs to address the needs of the community. How does the crime prevention program address social justice issues of the community?
  5. An analysis of the various programs showing their effectiveness in comparable jurisdictions.
  6. A recommendation of a funding strategy for program implementation.
  7. Your anticipated outcomes, both short and long term. How does the crime prevention program affect social justice within the community?

Writing the Final Project
The Final Project:

  1. Must be eight to ten double-spaced pages in length (not including title and references pages), and formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
  2. Must include a title page with the following:
    1. Title of paper
    2. Student’s name
    3. Course name and number
    4. Instructor’s name
    5. Date submitted
  3. Must begin with an introductory paragraph that has a succinct thesis statement.
  4. Must address the topic of the paper with critical thought.
  5. Must end with a conclusion that reaffirms your thesis.
  6. Must use at least six scholarly sources, including a minimum of four from the Ashford University Library.
  7. Must document all sources in APA style, as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.
  8. Must include a separate reference page, formatted according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center.

Carefully review the Grading Rubric for the criteria that will be used to evaluate your assignment.

ethics 3 1

Part I:

Quote 1: “Besides, too high a price is asked for harmony; it’s beyond our means to pay so much to enter on it. And so I hasten to give back my entrance ticket, and if I am and honest man I am bound to give it back as soon as possible. And that I am doing.  It’s not God that I don’t accept, Alyosha, only I most respectfully return Him the ticket.”

“That’s rebellion,” murmured Alyosha, looking down.”

 “Rebellion? I am sorry you call it that,” said Ivan earnestly. “One can hardly live in rebellion, and I want to live.” 

 
Ivan’s challenge to Alyosha: “Tell me yourself, I challenge your answer. Imagine that you are creating a fabric of human destiny with the object of making men happy in the end, giving them peace and rest at last, but that it was essential and inevitable to torture to death only one tiny creature — that baby beating its breast with its fist, for instance — and to found that edifice on its unavenged tears, would you consent to be the architect on those conditions? Tell me, and tell the truth.” From “The Rebellion”

1. If Ivan challenged you to the same question, how would you answer this question? Use your readings to support your answer. Your answer should include the following:

1.1. Whether or not the suffering of one innocent child is justified for the peace and happiness of the many.

1.2. Identify one of Ivan’s arguments for rebelling against God? Do you agree or disagree with his argument and why?  In your opinion is Ivan’s rebellion against God morally justifiable?  Why or why not?

Part II:

Quote 2: “We shall show them that they are weak, that they are only pitiful children, but that childlike happiness is the sweetest of all. They will become timid and will look to us and huddle close to us in fear, as chicks to the hen. They will marvel at us and will be awe-stricken before us, and will be proud at our being so powerful and clever that we have been able to subdue such a turbulent flock of thousands of millions. They will tremble impotently before our wrath, their minds will grow fearful, they will be quick to shed tears like women and children, but they will be just as ready at a sign from us to pass to laughter and rejoicing, to happy mirth and childish song.” From “The Grand Inquisitor”

1. Explain how the Grand Inquisitor, in Dostoyevsky’s “The Grand Inquisitor” rationalizes his use of power. Do you agree or disagree with him and why?

2. Do you think that the powerful few, the Grand Inquisitor and the rulers of the Catholic Church, suffer to make the many happy?  Your answer should include ways in which the Judea-Christian ethic is violated.

3. Would Nietzsche consider the Grand Inquisitor a master moralist or a slave moralist? After defining slave and master morality, give an argument based on your reading of Nietzsche 
Beyond Good and Evil that justifies your answer.
