Journal Two: Identifying Conflict in Two Texts

Read About Journals in ENG125: Introduction to Literature for more information about the purpose and expectations for journals.

This week, you continue writing your journal entries. This journal entry is designed to help you document ideas about conflicts in literature, which will contribute to the information required for the Week Three Draft and the Week Five Literary Analysis. Recognizing conflict is essential to understanding the various commentaries literature can provide.

In Journal One, you identified conflict as it might appear in our everyday world and from other sources. Now, consider the following definition of conflict and how it relates to literature from the textbook or the story/poetry links provided under the requirements for the Literary Analysis:

Conflict is opposing actions, ideas, and decisions that hold a plot together…the struggle that shapes the plot in a story.

Chapters 1-7 of our text contain a number of stories and poems, each of which rely on at least one conflict. Choose two of this week’s assigned literary works and write about the conflicts presented in each of them. In 250 to 500 words

• State the specific conflicts you see in each work.
• Describe the characters, forces, and/or entities that are at odds.
• Explain why you think the conflicts are significant and what meanings/understandings they provide to the texts.
• Paraphrase, quote, and/or summarize content from the works to support your observations. Don’t forget to add in-text citations for the works you draw from.
• Explain how each conflict has meaning beyond the work in which it appears. Why is it important to be able to recognize conflict in a literary text and extend that understanding of conflict to the world at large?
• From the stories you are reading, how much do similar elements of symbolism, metaphor, allusion, and/or allegory apply and add depth to an idea raised in the literature?
  • For instance, in George Orwell’s novel Animal Farm, the pigs and farmers can be seen as symbolic of workers versus managers to make points about class struggles, calling into question the idea of equality in society.
  • In another example, in the “Story of an Hour,” the main character expresses personal conflict in her process of coming to terms with her husband’s supposed death. But this moment symbolizes more than just her personal grief. What does it suggest about societal expectations regarding women and how they should respond to grief? How might those expectations of grief still apply to women’s roles? How does the symbolism show a conflict between Mrs. Mallard and her own desires? Are these “women’s desires” in conflict with current social norms?

As you are writing this journal entry, please review the expectations for the Week Five Literary Analysis, which you are working toward throughout the course.

When submitting your journal entry, make sure to

• Proofread your work for errors in grammar, mechanics, and style.
• Format the journal entry according to APA style as outlined in the Ashford Writing Center. Refer to the Ashford Writing Center’s Sample APA Title Page for guidelines on formatting a title page in APA style.
• Provide (to the best of your ability) a reference for the text you used, including in-text citations and references listed at the end of the journal entry. Refer to the Ashford Writing Center’s Comprehensive APA Reference List Models and Citation and Reference Guide for guidelines on in text citations in APA style.
• Provide a reference for the text you used. Refer to the Ashford Writing Center’s Citation and Reference Guide for guidelines on citing sources in APA style.
• Perform a word count check to make sure the journal entry is 250 to 500 words in length.

NURS 2950– Nursing Leadership 1

Conflict Management Styles Scenarios and Action Plan

Instructions: First, complete the Conflict Management Styles Assessment to identify your preferred conflict management style. Then, read the scenarios below. Refer to section of the assessment tool “Brief Descriptions of the Five Conflict Management Styles” and your textbook (Leadership Roles and Management Functions in Nursing Theory and Application, pp. 562-563) to respond to the Discussion Questions and the Conflict Management Resolution Action Plan.

Nurse Manager Pat

You are walking out the door of the ED at 6:50 p.m. when you remember that you haven’t made the staffing assignments for the next day. You hurry back to your office and realize that the permanent charge nurse Bill had called out sick earlier. Before selecting a replacement, you scan the ED physician schedule to see which physician is on for the early morning shift. It’s Dr. Nagib, an excellent practitioner, but very difficult to work with because he doesn’t consider the clinical opinion of the ED nurse when selecting a treatment plan. Bill is the only charge nurse from whom Dr. Nagib accepts direction. He’s able to reach an acceptable solution to any problem that involves Dr. Nagib.

You look at the schedule and decide that the direct care nurse Sarah is the best choice. She’s also an excellent practitioner who can quickly find a middle ground to a solution when it involves patient management and patient movement. With a sign of relief, you think to herself, “Thank goodness I remembered to assign charge. What a disaster if I had forgotten.” You pause as you turn out the light to your office and say to yourself, “I need to get back here tomorrow morning to make sure that Sarah and Dr. Nagib get off to a positive start.”

Staff Nurse Charlotte

You are an experienced RN coming onto a 12-hour shift at 7 a.m. to a typical day in the ED. All of the patient bays are filled, there are stretchers with patients lining the hallways, and triage is backed up with patients waiting to come inside the main ED for evaluation and treatment.

When you arrive on the unit, your heart sinks. The day charge nurse is Sarah, someone you find very difficult to work with when she’s in charge because she becomes demanding and aggressive. Sarah is an excellent ED nurse, but interacting with her is always a challenge that escalates when she assumes the charge role.

To make matters worse, Dr. Nagib is also on duty. Dr. Nagib doesn’t get along with nurses and especially not with Sarah. They’re often in loud debates about patient management and patient movement.

You get report from Sarah and your assignment is heavy. The acuity and number of patients exceed the ED guidelines, and you are not comfortable that the assignment is safe.

You also notice your assignment is disproportionate to another ED nurse, Janet. Her five patients are stable and being readied for discharge. You’re not surprised however, because Janet has the reputation of always getting her way. Ordinarily you would accept the assignment to accommodate the needs of the unit, but you’re tired from working a double shift the day before. You approach Sarah to request to have your assignment modified.

Charge Nurse Sarah

You are in charge of the ED today because the permanent day charge called-out sick. You are an excellent practitioner who can quickly find a middle ground to a solution when it involves patient management and patient movement, although you have been known to clash with Dr. Nagib who is also scheduled for today.

The ED has been backed up the past 24 hours with admitted patients awaiting a bed upstairs. Fortunately, there are several patients with discharge orders and your goal is for the discharges to move swiftly and smoothly and maintain a sense of order as best you can. Your other goal is to move admitted patients out of the ED and into beds as soon as they become available.

You decide to assign one nurse to complete all of the discharges and a second nurse to manage transfers to inpatient beds. You assign nurse Charlotte to the transfer patients because she is the most experienced nurse on shift. You assign another nurse, Janet, to do all the discharges because frankly, she is a complainer and you want to keep the peace, particularly since Dr. Nagib might view any disruptions as an opportunity to take over patient management and transfers.

Charlotte approaches you requesting her assignment be modified. You tell her, “it is what it is”, and that you want to avoid any drama with Janet because, “You know how she is.”

Discussion Questions:

1. From reading the background description for Nurse Manager Pat, identify the primary conflict management strategy you think might be their primary style. Provide an example and short description to support your answer.

2. From reading the background description for Staff Nurse Charlotte, identify the primary conflict management strategy you think might be their primary style. Provide an example and short description to support your answer.

3. From reading the background description for Charge Nurse Sarah, identify the primary conflict management strategy you think might be their primary style. Provide an example and short description to support your answer.

Conflict Management Resolution Action Plan

Finally frustrated, Charlotte has decided to tell the nurse manager Pat about her unfair assignment since she is getting nowhere with Sarah.

How might Pat deal with the charge nurse and Charlotte’s perception that her assignment is unreasonable? What are the various ways Pat can address the issue and manage this conflict situation?

For each conflict management strategy below, list one way the strategy would be used by Nurse Manager Pat to address the staffing issue, and one possible outcome from applying the strategy.
