HandTech organizational structure Matrix Project HardTech

Read the case the incident for Discussion “HandTech, Inc.” on page 67 in your text . What organizational structure would you recommend HandTech use to complete the three initiatives outlined ? Why?

Respond to 3 of your mates posts.

mates posts1;

The organizational structure I would recommend to HardTech is Matrix Project Organization. The matrix structure is a hybrid of pure project organization and the functionally organized project.

HardTech’s founders originally structured their firm as a traditional functional organizational structure, so they understand the advantages and disadvantages of that structure. Also, they can still assign each phase of the three initiatives to a specific department and still have the PMs report to the three senior officers.

In this case we note that HandTech Inc is a small company that previously relied on the traditional organizational structure,now that they are growing and expanding they need to adopt a more sophisticated structure. I would recommend a matrix structure for HandTech because they will be dealing with different types of projects.

The matrix structure is relevant for HandTech,because it will be able to bring together the advantages of a pure and function structure in various projects being undertaken.Also,this structure will pay strong focus to the proects while at the same time being flexible.

mates posts 3;

The existing structure is known as the functional structure. In this structure, the workforce is divided into three departments. The company required three initiative and therefore three exclusive projects are necessary to complete in a given time. If the functional structure will be followed then these three projects will take more time and less coordination when they will be a divideinto three departments. So, the Divisional structure can be used in which the Handtech can complete its three projects within time and people can be a divide in three teams of projects. The divisional structure will bring people in contact and they will be able to discuss all the project related concerns.

PSY 303 Final Paper Aileen Wuornos

PSY 303 Final Paper Aileen Wuornos

For your Final Paper, you will
demonstrate your knowledge of psychopathology and apply your skills to a
realistic scenario. Throughout this course, you have developed unique knowledge
and skill sets that will allow you to critically analyze depictions of
psychopathology in popular media and historical case examples from an informed
point of view.

Your Final Paper will be a
psychological report that must be based on Aileen Wuornos case study. You may
not use examples from your personal life in the psychological report since
doing so would be unethical (see Standards 2.04 and 9.01a in the Ethical
Principles of Psychologists and Code of Conduct).

As you create this report, you will be
taking on the role of a clinician who is conducting an assessment and providing
treatment recommendations for a patient (a character from your selected film or
historical case study). Please note that a psychological report does not follow
the same structure for reports you may have used in other courses. Your report
must follow the format below and it must include each of the sections and their
headings listed in this order:

  1. Identifying InformationWithin this section, you
    will describe basic information on your patient, including the
    person’s name, sex, gender, sexual orientation, age, race, occupation, and
    location of residence (country, state, and region).
  2. Chief Complaint/Presenting Problem Within this section, you will
    include the patient’s primary complaint verbatim to identify the main
    source of his or her distress and/or concerns. If there is no verbatim
    complaint, include observable information to create an overall picture of
    the presenting problem.

    Typically, this section within a psychological report seeks to address the
    following question (further elaboration within this section is encouraged
    where possible):

    • What are the patient’s complaints? (e.g., the patient
      might complain about “feeling on edge” or experiencing stress)
  1. Symptoms Within this section, you will
    interpret specific behavioral issues and intrapsychic conflicts as they
    relate to abnormal behavior, behavior patterns, maladaptive thought
    processes, and potential unconscious conflicts. Interpret and comment on
    the patient’s chief complaint and/or presenting problem in the context and
    language of the symptoms found in the DSM-5. (e.g., the patient who
    complains about “feeling on edge” might actually be experiencing
    symptoms related to post-traumatic stress disorder or generalized anxiety
    disorder)
  2. Personal History Within this section, you
    will analyze your patient’s personal background and history of
    abnormal behavior(s) that inform your diagnostic impression. You will also
    gather information about the patient’s cultural background and cultural
    norms.

    Typically, this section within a psychological report seeks to answer the

    1. Family History Within this section, you will
      analyze the patient’s familial relationship(s) and identify any
      abnormalities that might affect future treatment. You will also integrate
      information about the patient’s family and cultural background to identify
      any maladaptive behaviors and relational patterns.

      Typically, this section within a psychological report seeks to answer the
      following questions (further elaboration within this section is encouraged
      where possible):

        • How old were the patient’s parents when the patient
          was born?
        • Who were the patient’s primary caregivers?
        • What was/is family life like? (Include any information
          relevant to your diagnostic impression.)

      1. Therapy History Within this section, you will
        describe the patient’s therapy history to inform your diagnostic
        impression. Analyze the patient’s therapy history to identify the
        effectiveness of previous treatment(s). Analyze previous treatment

          • Were those interventions appropriate for the patient’s
            culture?
          • Was treatment successful?
        1. Medical Conditions Within this section, you will
          analyze the patient’s medical history and comment on any possible medical
          conditions that could influence your diagnostic impression. Interpret
          specific behavioral issues as they relate to salient medical conditions.
          If the person has any medical conditions, indicate that in this section.

          analyze and comment on the patient’s substance use to identify any
          potential issues that could influence your diagnostic impression.
          Interpret specific behavioral issues as they relate to substance use. If
          the person misuses specific substances, indicate that in this section.
          Integrate information and knowledge about the patient’s cultural
          background to inform your interpretation of substance misuse in this
          patient’s case.

          Typically, this section within a psychological report seeks to answer the
          following questions (further elaboration within this section is encouraged
          where possible):

            • Which substances does the patient use? (Include any
              over-the-counter, herbal, and/or prescription medications.)

          1. Collateral Within this section, you will
            interpret specific collateral information as it relates to your patient’s
            abnormal behavior and behavior patterns. You will also integrate information
            and knowledge regarding the patient’s culture in your evaluation of the
            maladaptive behavior as reported by the collateral sources.

            Typically, this section within a psychological report seeks to answer the
            following questions (further elaboration within this section is encouraged
            where possible):

              • What do other people have to say about the patient’s
                behavior?
              • Are there any commonalities between the collateral
                sources’ reports?
              • Do the collateral sources have any psychological
                issues that might exacerbate the patient’s problems?
              • Are there any police reports?
              • Are there any personality testing or intelligence
                testing reports available?
            1. Results of Evaluation Within this section, you will
              analyze the patient’s behavior and mental processes. There are two parts
              to this section. To begin your analysis, you will write a brief evaluation
              of each theory of personality development that you learned about in this
              course and determine whether or not each theoretical orientation can be
              used to conceptualize the patient’s current situation and treatment goals.
              Next, use one major theoretical orientation to write an in-depth analysis
              for your results of evaluation section. Within the context of this
              theoretical perspective, you will analyze all of the information from the
              previous sections. Analyze specific behaviors, cognitions, and
              intrapsychic processes as they relate to your diagnostic impression.
              Integrate knowledge of the patient’s cultural background and norms within
              that culture as you prepare your supporting evidence.

              Typically, this section within a psychological report seeks to answer the
              following question (further elaboration within this section is encouraged
              where possible):

                • Based on the information you gathered in the previous
                  sections, what led to the patient’s current state?
              1. Diagnostic Impression With Differential Justification Within this section, you will
                provide your diagnosis for the patient. To demonstrate your understanding
                of diagnostic procedure and justification, specifically address each
                symptom that the patient displayed and relate each symptom to a diagnostic
                criterion in the DSM-5. Analyze the patient’s behaviors and mental
                processes within your differential justification. Clearly demonstrate that
                the patient meets criteria to be given a diagnosis. If the patient does
                not meet criteria for any diagnosis based on your assessment, explain why.
                Also, explore any alternative diagnoses and explain why these were not
                chosen.
              2. Recommendations Within this section, you will
                you provide treatment recommendations for the person to help them improve
                his or her quality of life. These recommendations must be based on the
                theoretical orientation you used in your Results of Evaluation. Explain
                why you chose your treatment intervention(s) and include peer-reviewed
                articles that support your choice(s). If treatment is not necessary,
                explain why. Pay close attention to the person’s culture since some
                treatment options may be insensitive to his or her culture or way of
                living.
