Emotional Intelligence & The State of Things:

Select a story from current events to discuss how any aspect of Emotional Intelligence, or lack thereof, is manifesting in our world, communities, even ourselves. Include a link to the story/event you are choosing.

Sadly, the news is ripe right now with examples and topics for discussion concerning the lack of EI in our world. Remember you can also pick an example of Emotional Intelligence being practiced — an uplifting or hopeful story. You should consider the components of EI you identified in your essay, and focus on specifics in discussing them and your story. Make sure you clearly connect what you have read to Goleman/points from our text, citing examples of Goleman’s theoretical connected to the practical and real examples you’ve chosen. Part of what you are being evaluated on here is your ability to recognize what Goleman is talking about in the world around us, and make that realization/connection clear to your readers.

*Make sure you include a link to your story and a brief summary of the content in the first paragraph of your response.

*Your selection should come from a reputable news source. That is, it must be an established news organization with verifiable content. It must be a decent length; selecting a blurb or quick read article (anything that includes in the title “5 minute read” should be avoided) won’t cut it.

*Your response should be a minimum of 700 words

In this assignment, you are being asked to reflect on the issue of ethics and ethical behavior. Referring to the Ted Brown case study (below), develop your thoughts by considering the following issues:

· As a manager, when you observed Ted’s interaction with your administrative assistant, what ethical concerns did you have?

· How should you balance these concerns with the needs of the business?

· How might the external environment affect your organization’s overall ethical perspective? What are some factors that could influence your personal ethical perspective?

· How might your decision about Ted (to hire or not) impact your internal environment (i.e., organizational culture)?

· If Ted’s behavior is accepted in your organization, what does that say about your organizational culture (either positively or negatively)?

Note: The above questions are only to guide your thoughts. You do not have to answer them one by one or in any kind of sequence. You can be creative in expressing your thoughts about the ethical questions that you feel this case study raises.

The Case of Ted Brown: To Hire or Not to Hire

You are a senior manager in your organization, and for the past month you have been interviewing candidates for the position of director of a new section of your operation. Your staff has narrowed down the list of candidates to three, and of those three, you re most impressed with Ted Brown. Ted is 36 years old with and MBA from the prestigious Horton School of Business. He has worked in various parts of your industry for the past eight years, he is very personable with a quick mind and a good sense of humor. Aside from all of that, he has excellent business contacts and should be able to bring a substantial amount of that business to your company at a time when a real strategic focus of your company has been account expansion. Ted is the last candidate tat you will interview for this position and although all of the three finalists were good, you believe that Ted is clearly the best and is definitely the person for the job.

The interview with Ted went longer than scheduled so Ted has to hurry to catch his plane back to New York. Before he leaves your office, he turns to you and says, “I’d better ask your girl to call a car for me or I’ll miss my plane.”

After you walk Ted out of your office, he stops by your administrative assistant’s desk and you overhear him say, ” Honey, be a good girl and call me a car-and move it or I’ll be late.” Your administrative assistant turns beet red but says nothing and dials the number.

You walk back in your office and think about the scene you just witnessed. You just spent two hours with someone that seemed like a nice guy and a really good fit for your organization, but in the past two minutes, you now have your doubts.

critical examination of the aap publication and a critique of a media portrayal of substance use

/in /by

This assignment meets the following Course Learning Objectives:

– Articulate basic drug terminology and drug taking behavior
– Identify the various addictive substances – legal and illegal – and their classifications
– Analyze the reasons people commonly abuse substances
– Analyze how substances affect the mind and body and society

In 2010, The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) released a policy statement addressing the complex relationships among children, adolescents, substance abuse, and the media. This assignment requires a critical examination of the AAP publication and a critique of a media portrayal of substance use, with links made to the AAP statement and course material. Conclusions about the implications of the media portrayals and the policies recommended by the AAP also should be made.

This assignment proceeds in four steps:

Preparation

Step One: Read the AAP Policy Statement located below. Make some notes for yourself about points of agreement or disagreement you have with the statement and specific findings regarding media depictions of substance use that you want to assess when you write the paper.

Step Two: Find a current example of substance use portrayal seen in the media; for example, scenes from a movie, a television show, or a commercial; print ads; or portrayals found in “new media” as discussed in the AAP article. The Internet is a good tool for finding film or television portrayals of substance use as well as examples of print ads if ready access to first-hand media is not available. A two paragraph summary of the proposed example of substance use portrayal in the media that will be used for the paper is due by the end of Week 3. This proposal is a separate assignment and is worth 10 points.

Construction

Step Three: Write the paper. Begin the paper with an introduction that summarizes the main findings of the AAP article and previews what will be covered in the coming pages. Next, compare and contrast the portrayal of substance use found in the media with the information learned about that substance in the class and textbook. What messages about the substance are being portrayed? How accurate are those messages relative to the actual data on substance use? Be sure to cite the textbook as needed.

Continue by comparing and contrasting the portrayal of substance use found in the media with the criticism of media portrayals found in the AAP paper. Does the media example match their arguments or contradict them? What links and connections can be made? Be sure to cite the article as needed.

Next, draw some conclusions about the portrayal of substance use found in the media, addressing the following: What are the implications of this type of portrayal? What messages are being sent and to whom? Are those messages an accurate representation of the use of this substance? Should media portrayals be required to be accurate in their depictions of use, showing both positive and negative consequences?

Finally, review the guidelines suggested by the AAP at the end of their policy statement and address the following: Although directed specifically at pediatricians, which of those recommendations is most important? Why? Are these recommendations necessary? If followed, will they be effective in addressing the concerns raised earlier in the article? Be sure to cite sources as needed.

Step Four:

The required length of this paper is 11 pages, plus a required a cover page and a reference list. Papers must comply with APA formatting rules, including font size and margins, and must have a scholarly focus and tone. Quoting of published material and use of the first-person “I” are not permitted and will result in point loss. All source material must be paraphrased into your own words and cited appropriately.

Instructions

You have been tasked with identifying health hazards associated with a production line at a manufacturing facility.

Employees at the beginning of the line use a solvent to clean the surface of medium-size auto parts, and then they place the parts on a moving line. As the parts move along the line, an employee sprays them with a powder coating, and the parts move through an oven. Another employee removes the parts from the line and places them in slots in a cart for transporting to shipping.

You have been provided safety data sheets for the solvent used for cleaning the parts (click here to access) and the powder coating that is used (click here to access). Use the JHA form to identify the potential health hazards associated with the process. Click here to access the Basic Job Hazard Analysis form. You will use the Basic Hazard Analysis form to enter your responses and to answer the four questions listed below. Please upload this completed document to your instructor for grading.

Prepare a two-page homework assignment summarizing your health hazard analysis and answer these questions from the Basic Job Hazard Analysis form.

  1. What are the health hazards associated with the operation?
  2. What are the primary exposure routes associated with each health hazard?
  3. Are there any potential acute or chronic health effects for any of the health hazards you identified?
  4. Are special hazards associated with any of the health hazards?

You may use the safety data sheets provided above, information from the OSHA or NIOSH websites, or academic references from the Internet to answer the questions. Citations are not required for this homework assignment; however you may want to use them in order to answer the questions.
