Part I.

Watch a prime time
television show (or rerun) in which the episode focuses on a group of people
who are talking to each other in formal or informal meetings as the context for
the show. You may choose from the following: The Office, Law & Order, the
Shield, 24, The Unit, or reruns of shows such as Friends, Seinfeld, or Everyone
Loves Raymond. If you would like to use a different show, send a message to
your instructor to get approval for your choice. Take notes while you watch the
show so that you can notice and recall who played group task roles, group
maintenance roles, and any self-centered roles. Your notes in Part I should be
integrated into your answers to the assignment questions in Part II.

Note: This assignment is
not referring to communication that occurs because of people’s personalities or
job skills. Please refer to Figure 9.1 in your textbook for specific group
communication roles.

If the show you have
selected does not give you an opportunity to observe a small group working
together in the particular episode you have chosen, please choose another
episode or show. It will be difficult for you to answer the questions well if
the show does not match the purpose of this assignment. However, you can
discuss poor examples of group communication roles as well as good examples and
show your learning. You do not have to find only good examples of group
communication roles. If you cannot find a show with a group of people who are
very clearly in a small group communication situation, then you may need to
discuss a real-life group of people who are communicating with each other in a
small group situation.

Part II.

Read the following
questions. Write the answers to the questions, review your work, and submit
your answers. Integrate the key concepts and key terms from this lesson into
your answers.

The answer to each
question should be approximately 6 to 10 sentences in length. You should write
your responses in complete sentences free of spelling and grammatical errors.
Please type your answers in a Word document and then paste your answers below
each question in the space provided.

Before
completing this assignment, review the Grading Rubric.

1.List the television show that you watched. Use the communication
task roles Chapter 9 and 10 discuss to describe two specific characters and the
communication task role(s) they played. How did these roles affect the group
communication? Give specific examples.

2.Describe each maintenance/social role in your own words, and
explain which were present in the television show you watched. Which

examples.

4.Using the functional approach to leadership, analyze the leader of
the group from the television show you watched. Did this leader perform mostly
task functions or process functions? How did the person’s leadership affect the

Respond to this post:

According to our textbook, responsibility accounting (RA) are “tools and concepts used by managerial accountants to measure the performance of an organization’s people and subunits”.

Generally, RA encompasses a company’s internal accounting and budgeting. The purpose of which is to help in the development and regulate a company’s responsibility centers like a decentralized department and division. RA also includes the establishment of yearly and monthly budgets for each responsibility center and the company’s transactions are categorized by responsibility center with prepared monthly reports. The reports will have tangible amounts for each line item in the budget with the variance concerning the budget and actual amounts. RA allows business’s and managers of a responsibility center to obtain monthly feedback on the manager’s performance (Averkamp, 2018). This journal is about the organization of responsibility accounting of the enterprises of City Electric Transport (CET) in Ukraine. This article explains how CET has been unprofitable in an industry that is declining where the important role of the CET is established through the experiences of advanced and functioning worldwide transport systems and the infrastructure of transport services through accessibility, cost-effectiveness and environmental friendliness. Added to this, according to scientific studies, developing better electric transport also allows for significant and positive environmental and social effects. In order to accomplish this, there would need to be drastic changes. They need to increase the performance and quality of service of the management system by guiding efforts to weather the unprofitability of their tram and trolleybus enterprises.

This article was written about how to tackle the problems within the transport service City Electric Transport (CET) in the Ukraine and how to safeguard the greatest efficacy for each passenger while at the same time ensuring the competitiveness of CET. The opportunity here was to approximate the effectiveness of different routes, and by using this approximation to set preferences for both units together that offer traffic of vehicles, and for management and staff to be accountable for the quality and efficiency of passenger transport. By incorporating state regulation of the industry, characteristics in interactions with customers, the detailed description of the services provided and technological features of structural units, CET can confirm the effectiveness of the organizations management accounting and enterprise activity. To accomplish this, the article states that a mathematical model and the method for determining the management quality, which connects the quality of service with the efficiency of city transport routes, was developed which allowed for rating of routes by the criterion of efficiency and determining the quality of service of the transport enterprise’s customers regarding the accuracy of fulfillment of the transport schedule.
