CPMGT/301 week 4 study questions

I need the 100 word response or more to each bullet point.

  • What factors present barriers to communication in an organization?
  • What communication methods help to reduce the impact of communication barriers?
  • Is there a place for social networking in project management? Explain why or why not.
  • Does communication via social networking compromise professionalism? Explain why or why not.
  • Choose one example project (profession, military, nonprofit, personal) and determine what benefits the project will provide. Describe the scenario and the detailed benefits you would outline ahead of embarking on the new project.
  • If I could choose just one concept for you to takeaway from this class it would be on how to identify and resolve conflicting priorities. No matter what industry you are in, you will likely encounter individuals with conflicting priorities as you try to complete your own projects. What are some of the methods this chapter recommends to mitigate these conflicts? Include an example from your own experience of a conflicting priorities situation you encountered and what you, or a colleague, did to resolve it. Relate your resolution to a method deployed in our text.
  • Stakeholder influence cannot be emphasized enough in a project planning capacity. For something a bit different in this discussion, choose one of the articles (or videos from the other learning activities) and post a brief summary here for the benefit of the class. Include a relevant example from your own experience. Including your own experience is key to our discussion so we don’t wind up with the same four posts repeating. Try to highlight different elements of the articles or videos. If you are choosing a video, be sure to post your summary under the relevant thread where the video resides to avoid confusion.

the company name, business and finance homework help

By not mentioning the company name Ramsey focused the content of the speech on the issue rather than what the company’s products could do for them. This selling point to both customer, and potential customer could give the perspective that the organization cares more about the frame of mind of the individual rather than the margins within the books. The advantages of doing so could range from personal interactions within a large corporate framework, feelings of caring as seen by customers, and how the company actually views its customer base. The disadvantages could be the complete opposite of the spectrum. Not showing pride in the company which could translate Ramsey does not believe in their products. This could be a huge set back in current sales as well as future endeavors. People could feel misled by the confusion over what the speech is directly aimed at also.

How does work motivation differ from motivation in general? Or, is it the same? If different, why is the distinction important? Support your answer with empirical research.

2.

Johns (2006) wrote about the main effects of contextual variables on work motivation while lamenting researchers’ failure to consider the joint or interactive effects of such variables. Read Johns’ article. What insights does it provide? How can his assertions be applied to work motivation, the workplace environment, and practitioners’ understanding of these mechanisms? Compare Johns’ assertions to Miner’s article. How do they differ? How are they the same?
