Problem 3 Writing Assignment

Assume that 4 classmates who graduated from the SCOB decided to start a small business that produces

small components for automobile valve assemblies for Hyundai Sonatas. The company was set up as an

Alabama corporation under the name of “SCOB Products.”

Because Hyundai has a large assembly plant outside of Montgomery, Alabama, all four of the classmates

decided to locate the company in Montgomery. The company has hired local managers who can run the

business. These managers are also graduates of Troy’s Sorrell College of Business. They are originally

from Israel.

The four classmates make up the company’s board of directors. Jane is the Chairwoman; Paul is the

Secretary; Julie is the Treasurer; Jacob is simply a voting member. Stock was issued and each of the four

took a 25% interest in the company. Jane is also the CEO; Paul is the CFO; Julie is the CCEO. Jacob is not

one of the officers. He was recognized by the other members as having incredible marketing and sales

talents and, therefore, he was given the position of Director of Marketing and Sales which is a

management position.

The Board recently met to discuss a proposal by Jane to donate 10% of the profits, after taxes, from the

company to a building project in what is referred to as Palestine.

1

The project is sponsored by Hamas

and it is designed to provide living space for orphans. Jane and the other two Board members are very

much in favor of this project because Jane was an orphan herself in Jordan at a very young age. She is,

therefore, intimately familiar with the plight of orphaned children in that part of the world.

Jacob is Jewish and he disagrees. Because of the conflict between Israel and Hamas, he is adamantly

opposed to anything that Hamas wants to do no matter how socially worthwhile the project might be.

He openly express his disagreement and strong opposition to the proposal.

The debate at the most recent Board and Shareholders’ meeting was quite heated. The other three

Board members, however, voted to make the contribution. At the same time, they reassessed Jacob’s

“cooperation.” They voted to remove him from his managerial position and to put him in the position of

head of the sales force. They intend to bring in another person who they know very well and to make

her Director of Marketing and Sales.

This will result in a reduction of Jacob’s pay and much lower prestige among the employees.

You are a consultant for businesses on corporate governance matters. Jacob comes to you for advice.

What are the corporate governance issues that you see in this fact pattern?

Analyze

them. This is not a

1

An area in the Middle East recognized as a state by some members of the U.N.

fact pattern that will require you to use the Rest Four Component Model of ethical decision-making or

the IRAC-type analysis. Those will come in later assignments.

Choose an organization per the following: (The Business type I chose is a made up company which I am planning to start in the future and it’s called “ the Real Estate Consultant Firm “).

    • Avoid choosing an organization that is so large that historical data would be difficult to apply. Firms in the Russell 2000® index may fit well, whereas firms in the Dow 30 Industrial index probably do not.
  • The organization can be a start-up that you or a significant other may create in the future. For a start-up, focus on an entrepreneurial idea that is of substantive interest, so this project leaves you with a product you may leverage in the future. (The Business type I chose is “ Real Estate Consultant Firm“).

Write a minimum of 1,050-word paper and no more than 1,200 words in which you address the following: (Identify all the following with the headlines according to the APA format guidelines).

  • Introduction
  • Identify the major components of the strategic management process.
  • Discuss how these components work together to create value for the organization.
  • Evaluate the company’s mission statement, vision statement, motivation strategy, innovation strategy, and people strategy. If the organization does not have one or more of these, how does that affect the organization and its people?
  • Explain the role of ethics and corporate social responsibility in strategic planning. How does this direct their strategy? How does the organization’s vison and mission align with your own values and vision? If you are currently working for the organization, how does your role influence this and vice versa?

Graduate Criminal Justice Capstone

/in /by

Tip: Finding these concerns is easily accomplished using media search engines of major news publication archives. The hardest issue will be to decide which ones to read. You can search for death penalty, juvenile boot camps, or plea bargaining, for example.

Think of a topic and then evaluate whether or not it is a public concern. If you begin to research a topic and can only find 4 or less articles on it, then do not select it for a research concern. You will need to select a topic for this assignment where sufficient information exists to research. There are a number of large newspapers and online news archives. Also, the major news agencies will have online archives for issues they have reported on. These are just a few suggestions. The limitations on this project are determined by your own creativity.

Assignment Guidelines

  • Address the following in 2–3 pages:
    • Identify at least 2 issues, problems, or policies in criminal justice for each of the following 3 components:
      • Law Enforcement
      • Corrections
      • Court System
    • This should result in the identification of a minimum total of 4 issues, problems, or policies.
      • Relate whether the areas identified are an issue, problem, or policy, and explain why.
      • Keep in mind they can be a combination.
      • The amount of attention paid by the media to the topics you selected may be an indicator of the level of concern the public holds regarding these topics.
        • However, it could also be an indicator of the agenda of that particular media outlet. Be careful, because the media outlet can be the driving force behind the issue, trying to make it a public concern.
    • Select 2 (out of the 4 or more you identified from the media search) of the issues, policies, or problems you found in terms of current public interest.
      • Select 2 topics that actually interest you, just to make the assignment more fun. There is nothing wrong with enjoying your research. You will find your end product is enhanced when you like what you are doing.
    • Create an annotated bibliography for the 2 research topics.
      • Find 8–10 peer-reviewed scholarly references (total) that pertain to your 2 topics.
      • Following each one of the individual references, prepare 2–3 sentences that describe what each reference is expected to contribute to your research.
      • It is not expected that you will read every word, but the abstracts should give you an idea of the content, and skimming through the document might also be helpful.
        • You may find other references later that better support and define your logic, but this is a start.
  • Be sure to reference all sources using APA style.

Read summary and respond to 2 questions

/in /by

For this assignment you will read the summary, and then you will answer the 2 questions please respond with 100 words for each question.

In part 4 of Shermer’s book ” Why people believe wierd things” He speaks of history in contrast to pseudohistory. He examines those that deny that the holocaust ever happened and makes his case that it did happen with much evidence. Then then gives us some insight on some racial topics that are viewed by some from certain perspectives.

Fallacy 1) In the section “Pigeonholes and Continuums” (p251) The conception that we originated from Africa is based on human bones that originated in Africa but what many are not aware of , is that the Chinese government does not allow the kind of excavation that are allowed in Africa so until we have done a thorough searched there, we should not get too excited and jump to conclusions as shermer did. Soon he might be saying he is , Chinese,German,Greek and then American.

Fallacy 2) Shermer writes that Evolution has been proven, ” Evolution, for example, is proved by the convergence of evidence”(p214) If that’s the case then why is there still the missing link between Neanderthals and humans. He writes this in the holocaust section to prove a point in reference to the methods used to prove his case but his point is missing an important link to give him credibility so this only weakened his case. he should have just left that out.

Fallacy 3) In page 204 he strongly speaks of Jews being the ones victimized and although I believe this, It would have been smart to get DNA tests on some of the surviving victims today that still give testimonies to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that they were in fact Jews.

2 Questions

Q 1) Do you think that if they find new evidence in China, they will change the Science and history books.

Q 2) Do you think that all Jews are from the line of Judah or that some were Israelites from the 12 original tribes.

Born or Made That Way? Jason Case Study

/in /by

Competencies Addressed in This Assignment

This assignment addresses the following competencies:

  • Competency 1: Apply theoretical perspectives to motives for criminal behavior.
  • Competency 2: Analyze the relationship between criminal psychology and criminal law.
  • Competency 3: Analyze the relationship between society and criminal behavior.
  • Competency 6: Communicate effectively in a professional manner.

Introduction

In this assignment, you will be using the DSM-5 (link given in the resources), which provides descriptions of psychiatric conditions, including criteria for determining whether a condition exists and treatment recommendations, as well as other details.

Note: You may review the document Accessing the DSM-5 and the Mental Measurement Yearbook (given in the resources) to understand how to access the DSM-5 in the Capella library.

You will view several conditions in the DSM-5 (listed below) and you will begin to formulate your own perspective on whether it is nature or nurture at the heart of the criminal behavior. Is criminal behavior the result of how we are raised or how we are wired neurologically or biologically? You may also want to consider why people in identical situations or factors do not generally display identical behaviors or reactions.

For this assignment, you will review the media Jason’s Case Study as a focus, as you start to develop you own premises of how you would explain criminal behavior. There is no wrong or right answer in terms of which of the disorders you choose. Your success will be determined by how well you are applying the basic components of the disorder you choose.

Instructions

After reviewing the media Jason’s Case Study, access the DSM-5 and read about the following:

  • Affective disorder. For example, depressive and bipolar disorders. Is Jason’s difficulty self-regulating, a biological condition, or a learned behavior?
  • Substance abuse. For example, is Jason’s drug use indicative of a disease model or is it socially influenced?
  • Anxiety. For example, is Jason dealing with a neurochemical or hormonal imbalance, or is it a learned behavior or a behavior modification, or is there some secondary gain for Jason?
  • Psychotic disorders. For example, does Jason experience thought distortion or difficulty with reality testing?

In your paper:

  • Analyze the case study in terms of the psychology described in the DSM-5. Note: Choose only one of the disorders listed that you think is most closely related to Jason’s case. Through your analysis of Jason’s case study and your reading in the DSM-5, describe how he meets the criteria of the disorder you have chosen. Remember, a disorder is based on time, duration, intensity, and the degree to which it interferes with everyday functioning (social, interpersonal, work, and patterns in relationships) and not just the observable behavior.
  • Determine social factors (for example, parenting styles, rejection by loved ones, lack of limits, et cetera) that impact Jason’s behavior (for example, his bullying, lying, and drug use).
  • Describe what you have found in the case that is relevant for a court case for either the defense or the prosecution. Without considering establishing competency or sanity, reflect on the implications of what you have seen in the DSM-5 and the case study in terms of criminal justice for Jason.

Be sure you review the Born or Made That Way? Jason Case Study Scoring Guide to ensure that you have met all the criteria for this assignment.

Other Requirements

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

  • Written communication: Written communication is free of errors that detract from the overall message.
  • APA formatting: Resources and citations are formatted according to current APA style and formatting guidelines.
  • Length of paper: 3–4 typed, double-spaced pages, not including the title page or the references page.
  • References: A minimum of three references.
  • Font and font size: Times New Roman, 12 point.

Police issues in the 21st century

/in /by

Historically, police executives have sought to distance themselves from police misconduct as a form of political survival. Rather than addressing the true causes, they seek quick fixes. Quick fixes serve as a catalyst for police misconduct and encourage only a narrow investigative focus, as opposed to exploring systemic problems.

As the supervisor of the internal affairs division within your police department, the chief has charged you with the responsibility of reviewing the department’s procedures regarding the investigation, determination, and recommended strategies that are related to officer misconduct.

Assignment Guidelines

Complete the following:

  • Address the following in 1,250–1,750 words:
    • What do you see as the major challenges facing police executives in the 21st century? Explain in detail.
    • What suggestions do you recommend for overcoming the “code of silence” that permeates all levels of the department? Explain.
    • What role, if any, does organizational culture play? Explain.
      • Who establishes the culture within the organization? Explain.
  • Be sure to reference all of your sources using APA style.

Assignment: Propose an experiment

Assignment: Propose an experiment

Use the article and video posted for this unit, as well as the text to assist you in doing this assignment.

Describe a correlation of a personality trait (e.g., impulsivity, aggression) with a particular behavior (e.g., assaults, test performance). Explain why we cannot infer that the trait caused the behavior based on the correlation.

Propose an original experiment to test if people high on the trait will behave differently from those low on the trait. In your proposal…

– state your hypothesis

– define the following in operational terms …

  • 1. the first independent variable (the situation, and its’ manipulation or treatment)
  • 2. the second independent variable (the trait, and how it is measured)
  • 3. the dependent variable (and its measurement)

– describe the experimental and control groups

– explain how and why you would use random assignment to create the treatment groups

– describe how you would control placebo effects, or experimenter effects

– Describe how you expect the trait and situation to interact in their effect on the dependent variable. How will people high on the trait respond to the manipulation compared to people low on the trait?
