Business strategy comes in many shapes and forms. While the objective of this class is to understand the components that create an effective and sustainable strategy we must first begin with a discussion on what exactly business strategy is. Michael Porter could be considered a visionary of strategic management. As a Business Professor at Harvard University he has spent much of his career researching and writing about strategy. One of his first papers was the attached article in which he discusses what strategy is, as well as what it is not. We will use this paper as a foundation for this class. Read the paper and respond to the questions listed below.

Guidelines: Use proper MLA criteria for research and formatting (see link on ulearn). Type the question (bold type) and then type your response below the question.

• What is the difference between operational effectiveness and strategic positioning?
• Why is it difficult for organizations to succeed when they are capable in operational effectiveness but do not have a strategic position in their industry?
• What are the competitive strategies of Southwest Airlines and Ikea?
• Why was Continental airlines not able to copy Southwest airlines strategy? What were the ramifications when they tried?
• Why do companies fail to have a strategy?

Review the SWOT Analysis Microsoft® PowerPoint® presentation prior to completing this assignment.

Based on the Business Plan scenario, conduct a SWOT analysis to generate a list of perceived strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats for the health care organization.

• Strengths and weaknesses are traits internal to the health care organization (e.g., strong physician loyalty to hospital, aging building, and availability of financial resources).
• Opportunities and threats are external to the health care organization (e.g., a mall facility available for lease or a competitor organization opening two physician practices in your market).

Use the SWOT Analysis worksheet to complete this assignment.

Write a 700- to 1,400-word analysis that incorporates the key components of a SWOT analysis for the scenario described above to generate a list of perceived strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats. Your analysis should:

• Analyze how this SWOT analysis will be used to form a final recommendation in the full business plan.
• Analyze the limitations and advantages of conducting a SWOT analysis on your own (versus with a group of stakeholders).
• Use the table provided to record your analysis of the information from the strategic planning scenario and generate two factors for each of the SWOT categories (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats).

Cite at least 1 peer-reviewed, scholarly, or similar reference to support your assignment.

Format your assignment according to APA guidelines.

Exercise 44 … (For-Credit of 6 points)

Derive the conclusion from the premises:

———————————————————–

[44-1] Exercise designed to appreciate comparative merit of CP:

   with the same argument below,

   [44-1.1]  do the 1st proof without using CP; &

   [44-1.2]  do the 2nd proof by using CP:

               C:     A  ->  F

               1:    ~F  ->  ~H

               2:    ~A   V   H

——————————————————–

[44-2] Exercise to compare two CP’s, one of which employs CP

       as part of the whole process:

       with the same argument below,

   [44-2.1]  do the 1st proof by using CP with ~X as AP

   [44-2.2]  do the 2nd proof by using CP with Y  as AP; & then Contra

               C:    ~X  ->  ~Y

               1:    (J  V  Q)  ->  X

               2:     Y  ->  (J & N)

———————————————————

[44-3] Exercise designed to see CP as a self-contained module:

   use CP to the get the 1st part of conjunction;

   use the conditional as a premise to get the 2nd part; &

   be careful not to take the 2nd part of conjunction from CP

               C:   (D -> E) & ~K

               1:   ~D  V  ~K

               2:   ~E  ->   K

               3:  (~D V E)  ->  ~K

——————————————————–

[44-4] Exercise designed to employ CP twice to get an equivalence

   do the 1st proof for M -> G by CP;

   do the 2nd proof for G -> M by CP;

   combine them by Conj; &

   then use Equiv

               C:   M  <->  G

               1:   M   V   ~G

               2:   M   ->  ~Y

               3:  ~G  ->   Y

Conducting a Learner Analysis
You will continue working on your instructional analysis for the Final Project using your imagined organization. In the Week Two assignment, you conducted an analysis of the learning need and context within your imagined organization. In this Week Three assignment, you will analyze the learners in your imagined organization who would benefit from the training or instruction offered to meet the learning need you identified in Week Two.
You will probably need to use resources in addition to the Smith and Ragan (2005) text to gather additional information about your imagined learners. Identify and describe relevant professional associations that might have data about their general membership or other sources, such as the Occupational Outlook Handbook of the Bureau of Labor Statistics. Be sure to clarify how each piece of information you report might be used to guide the design of the instruction.
Write in complete sentences in paragraph form. Include an introduction with a thesis statement and a conclusion that summarizes your main points. You must use at least one scholarly source in addition to the course text. Cite all sources of information you use in the analysis.
The assignment should be formatted according to APA style and be at least three but no more than five pages, not including the title and reference pages. For information regarding APA samples and tutorials, visit the Ashford Writing Center. I will attached the week 1 and 2 assignments that go with this so that you can understand whats going on.

NO PLAGIARISM! Will be submitted to turnitin!

Response Should be 300-350 words

Callista Roy and Betty Neuman’s theories view the person (individual, group, or community) as a holistic adaptive system that constantly interacts with the internal and external environments. Both theories view the person as being the center of nursing and present health/wellness and illness as parts of the same continuum, however there are some key assumptions that are different. As such, select one of the theories and identify 1 assumption of the theory and discuss how the care rendered for this patient by an advanced practice nurse would be structured (assessment, diagnosis, planning, intervention, evaluation) according to the theory. Give 2 specific examples of interventions that you anticipate will be included in the patient’s care.
