The document discusses the differences between strategic planning and business planning. Strategic planning determines an organization's direction and goals over multiple years and focuses on the entire organization, while business planning focuses on specific products, services, or programs and includes operational details. The author argues that strategic planning sets the foundation that business planning builds upon by outlining operational details. Both are important for organizational success but have distinct purposes.Chap05
The document discusses various aspects of planning in organizations, including:
- The benefits and costs of planning
- Top-down vs bottom-up planning approaches
- Strategic, operational, and individual planning
- Management by objectives and the balanced scorecard
- Contingency planning and how IT has affected planning
- Common barriers to planning and how to overcome them

Module One: Project Management and the Role of the Project
Manager
Project management is both an art and a science. To effectively manage projects, practitioners
need a unique combination of skills, expertise, and knowledge, to help teams bring their
projects to completion in the most productive and efficient way possible. A talented project
manager who can employ the concrete tools, techniques, and methodologies—as well as the
less-concrete "soft skills"—can be the difference between a successful project and an
unmitigated disaster.
This course will help you explore both the theory and the practice necessary to successfully
understand and manage projects. As you progress through the course, you'll learn the
terminology, processes, and key concepts that are essential to effective project management.
You'll explore the five stages of a project's life cycle, and you'll examine important project
elements—such as integration management, scheduling, costing, quality, control, risk
management, procurement, and stakeholder engagement—that must be monitored, evaluated,
and executed throughout a project. You'll also identify the roles that project managers and
stakeholders play in developing and managing efficient projects in their organization, to
ensure that they will meet requirements and reach a successful conclusion.
Learning Objectives
After completing this module, you should be able to:
1. Examine the concept of a project management office
2. Differentiate common organizational structures and explain how the structure of the
organization can affect project processes and activities
3. Identify project stakeholders and recognize the need to engage stakeholders throughout
the project life cycle
4. Examine the selection process and key attributes of a successful project manager
5. Describe the characteristics and dynamics of high-performing teams
6. Describe the methods for conflict resolution employed by project managers
Understanding Projects and Project Management
Practitioners often talk about completing projects and employing project management, but
organizations may define these terms differently, based on their size, complexity, or corporate
culture. To ensure that we are defining these terms similarly, let's take a closer look at them
before we move forward.
What is a Project?
A project is a series of carefully planned activities that creates a unique end result. A
project is not an ongoing process—each project has a defined beginning and end. There is
a specified budget and schedule for the project and each project is designed with a
specific output in mind.
Projects are executed within an organizational setting and, as such, must fit into the
management structure of the organization. To be of value, projects must fit wi ...
Overview of strategic planning
The document provides an overview of strategic planning for an educational institution. It defines strategic planning and discusses the types, concepts, steps, characteristics, scope, approaches, techniques/tools, and importance of strategic planning. Specifically, it outlines the goals and process of educational planning, including pre-planning, planning, diagnosis, policy formulation, needs assessment, costing, target setting, feasibility testing, plan formulation, plan elaboration, implementation, and evaluation/revision stages. Finally, it notes that strategic planning in education effectively organizes a school, defines success, aids governance, articulates shared vision/mission/values, increases communication, and keeps everyone connected to the school's top priority of students.
Implementation of strategy
This document discusses strategy implementation. It begins by defining strategy implementation as the activities and choices required to execute a strategic plan. While strategy formulation is important, less than 10% of strategies are successfully implemented due to hurdles like unanticipated problems, ineffective coordination, and lack of capabilities or training. It then discusses aligning initiatives, budgets, performance, structure, and engaging employees to strategy. Regular monitoring and adapting the strategy is also recommended. Finally, it introduces McKinsey's 7S framework for analyzing how well an organization is positioned to achieve its objectives.

Overview of LASAs
The strategy audit is a comprehensive analysis of the company’s business strategy and operating performance, and culminates in a series of recommendations for improving your company’s performance based on the findings and conclusions of your analysis. It involves assessing the actual direction of a business and comparing that course to the direction required to succeed in a changing environment. A company's actual direction is the sum of what it does and does not do, how well the organization is internally aligned to support the strategy, and how viable the strategy is when compared to external market, competitor, and financial realities. These two categories—the internal assessment and the external or environmental assessment—make up the major elements of a strategy audit.
Throughout this capstone course, you will work on a strategy audit for a selected organization. This will provide a summative learning experience that allows you to demonstrate your understanding of most of the MBA program learning outcomes and concepts in the various courses within the program. You will write this report as though you are a consultant to your selected company and are addressing the executive officers of this company. In each module, you will collect and analyze data in producing your report, but your final product will be condensed and focus on presenting your analysis findings and conclusions. You will submit two parts of a course project related to the strategy audit. You will submit these two parts in Modules 3 and 5.
Here is a list of tasks you will complete for your course project.
M1: Assignment 3—Market Position Analysis: You will assess the product portfolio of your selected organization by analyzing its value proposition, market position, and competitive advantage. You will identify the business unit of your company and the product(s) and service(s) you will focus on in this report. To gain a better understanding of these factors you will conduct at least one interview with a mid-level or senior manager.
M2: Assignment 2—External Environmental Scan: You will conduct a comprehensive external environment scan of your business unit along with a five forces analysis. Your analysis will incorporate any key customer-related factors and trends. You will use this information for a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis in Module 4.
M3: Assignment 2—LASA 1: Preliminary Strategy Audit: This is where you submit the first part of your course project assignment. You will develop a preliminary strategy audit, in which you will include an analysis of the company’s value proposition, market position, competitive advantage, and an external environmental scan/five forces analysis. You will also identify the 5–7 most important strategic issues facing the organization or business unit and include a preliminary set of recommended tactics for improving your company’s strategic align ...

Your instructor will choose the discussion question and post it as.docx
Your instructor will choose the discussion question and post it as the first response in the discussion forum. The requirements for this discussion are a minimum of four posts on four separate days. The total combined word count for all of your posts for this discussion, counted together, should be at least 400 words. Answer all the questions in the prompt, and read any resources that are required to complete the discussion properly. In order to satisfy the posting requirements for the week, complete your initial post by Day 3 (Thursday) and your other posts by Day 7 (Monday). We recommend that you get into the discussion early and spread out your posts over the course of the week. Reply to your classmates and instructor. Attempt to take the conversation further by examining their claims or arguments in more depth or responding to the posts that they make to you. Keep the discussion on target, and analyze things in as much detail as you can.
Demonstrating that an Argument is Invalid
The key concept in deductive logic is the concept of validity. One good way to learn to understand the concept of validity better is to discover what makes arguments invalid.
Prepare: To prepare to respond to this prompt read carefully the required portions of Chapters 3 and 4, paying special attention to the sections from Chapter 3 about validity and using the counterexample method. Take a look as well at the required resources from this week, especially those that discuss the concept of validity.
Reflect: Choose an argument from the following list of arguments (try to make sure not to choose the same argument as someone else). Consider the way in which the reasoning is actually invalid (perhaps subtly). Think about why that argument is invalid in the sense that it would be possible for all of the premises to be true and the conclusion false.
Choose from the following list of argument options.
1.
Everyone has to eat food with adequate calories. A bag of Doritos is food with adequate calories, so everyone should eat a bag of Doritos.
2.
All winos drink alcohol. All alcoholics drink too much. Therefore all winos are alcoholics.
3.
He won’t go to the wedding since he doesn’t like mushy stuff and weddings are mushy.
4.
I can’t go to the movies with you – I have a test tomorrow and I have to study.
5.
Capital punishment is wrong because it kills a human being.
6.
To go to the movie you have to have a ticket.
To buy a ticket you must pay money.
Thus, to go the movie you must pay money.
7.
All dogs have fur. All mammals have fur. So all dogs are mammals.
8.
If he makes a lot of money then he dresses nice and has a fancy car. He does dress nice and have a fancy car.
So he must make a lot of money.
9.

Demonstrating that an Argument is Invalid
The key concept in deductive logic is the concept of validity. One good way to learn to understand the concept of validity better is to discover what makes arguments invalid.
Prepare: To prepare to respond to this prompt read carefully the required portions of Chapters 3 and 4, paying special attention to the sections from Chapter 3 about validity and using the counterexample method. Take a look as well at the required resources from this week, especially those that discuss the concept of validity.
Reflect: Choose an argument from the following list of arguments (try to make sure not to choose the same argument as someone else). Consider the way in which the reasoning is actually invalid (perhaps subtly). Think about why that argument is invalid in the sense that it would be possible for all of the premises to be true and the conclusion false.
Choose from the following list of argument options.
1.
Everyone has to eat food with adequate calories. A bag of Doritos is food with adequate calories, so everyone should eat a bag of Doritos.
2.
All winos drink alcohol. All alcoholics drink too much. Therefore all winos are alcoholics.
3.
He won’t go to the wedding since he doesn’t like mushy stuff and weddings are mushy.
4.
I can’t go to the movies with you – I have a test tomorrow and I have to study.
5.
Capital punishment is wrong because it kills a human being.
6.
To go to the movie you have to have a ticket.
To buy a ticket you must pay money.
Thus, to go the movie you must pay money.
7.
All dogs have fur. All mammals have fur. So all dogs are mammals.
8.
If he makes a lot of money then he dresses nice and has a fancy car. He does dress nice and have a fancy car.
So he must make a lot of money.
9.
He will cry during the movie if he is a big softie.
He cried during the movie.

We have learned in Chapter 5 of our book that inductive inference is the most common kind of inference of all. It happens every day in each of our lives. This discussion will give each student a chance to create examples of common forms of inductive inference.
Prepare: To prepare to answer this prompt, take another look at Chapter 5 of our book, paying close attention to the names of the various forms of inductive inference. Take a look as well at the required resources from this week.
Reflect: Think about examples you have seen of each type of inductive inference in daily life. Consider the relative strength of such inferences in light of the methods of evaluation that you learned in the chapter.
Write: To answer the prompt, create or find one example each of three different types of inductive inference that we learned in Chapter 5. Clearly indicate as well which type of inductive inference it is. For each of your arguments, include an analysis of its degree of strength using the evaluative methods we learned in the chapter for that type of argument.
Guided Response:
Respond to at least three of your classmates’ posts. In each case provide substantive thoughts about the strength of the inference. Mention as well what premises you think could be added to strengthen the inference or which might weaken it. How do you think that the argument could be improved?

Appeals to authority, inductive generalizations, and statistical syllogisms are three common types of inductive inference. Appeals of authority means implying a truth because the source is an authority or subject matter expert. Some considerations to consider during analysis would be: Is the authority or subject matter expert a real, verified expert in the field? Do other subject matter experts in the field agree with the conclusion? Is the question relevant to the subject matter expert in their area of study? Another consideration is if the subject mat.

The Virtues of Critical Thinkers

o
The three valuable intellectual traits I can further
strenghten
are; Intellectual
Perseverence
, Intellectual Courage and Confidence in Reasoning.
We all have concluded sometimes that someone's ideas or points of views are absurd, and they are
not worth
of considering any critical thinking on our part, but what if we are just wrong, because we never took the courage to be
truth
to those ideas and dedicate some time to explore them with critical thinking, I need to work on it. Also Intellectual
perseverence
is something I need to work on , being
concious
that; not matter the obstacles and difficulties I will stick to the principle of rationality, not caring what others might think about it. And lastly; Intellectual Autonomy, to be able to learn; I need to control my beliefs, values and inferences, using evidence and reason when evaluating

Anxiousness has been an issue that I faced for years. I always felt that things had to be done within a certain time frame in the day or in my life. If it seemed like I was not going to make a deadline or something that I felt like I was supposed to do that day, then I would go through an anxiety ritual that made me look like I was an unreasonable person. I thought that if things fell into place the way I thought they should, then everything was alright in my world. Well, what I found out is that nothing is ever going to go the way I want it to all the time or in my own time frame. Events take place that
cause
an effect on my (and everyone’s) life that
are
going to create different outcomes to something that was planned. I’ve learned that I’m not always in control of events that happen in my everyday life, so it’s useless and immature to get upset or anxious about things that I can’t control or not responsible for in life. Critical thinking has helped me deal with anxiety in a positive way. I’ve learned to think about the whole picture of why I’m stuck on a timeline and what would the outcome be if I didn’t make the timeline or event. Would I be in a negative place? Would it affect me as much as I thought it would? Would anyone else suffer from my actions? All these questions had the same answer, No. So, I decided to do what I could in the time that I had and not worry about getting everything done in a certain amount of time. I’ve also learned to take deep breaths to help calm myself down so that I could begin to rationalize my thoughts when I’m faced with pre-anxiety.
The three valuable intellectual traits I can strength.

Your final project for this course will be a patient record analysis.docx
Your final project for this course will be a patient record analysis. You will apply the knowledge of anatomy, physiology, and pharmacology that you have developed during this course in a thorough review of existing patient information. Specifically, you will review a patient’s history and a discharge chart from a recent physician visit, explaining the reasons behind diagnosis
or (diagnoses) based on documented symptoms. You will also cite any inconsistencies or concerns and discuss potential and current treatments, all in preparation for your future coding practices. It may seem unnecessary to learn so much about pathophysiology and pharmacology for a career in health information management, but such knowledge is essential in ensuring the accuracy of patient records, coding, and billing.
The project is divided into two milestones, which will be submitted at various points throughout the course to scaffold learning and ensure quality final submissions. These milestones will be submitted in Modules Three and Five. The final product will be submitted in Module Seven.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
·
Analyze the pathophysiology of commonly diagnosed health conditions for anticipating the pharmacological needs of patients
·
Differentiate between common health conditions that present similar symptoms using evidence - based resources for ensuring accurate patient health records
·
Analyze standard pharmacological groupings and their specific drugs for their uses in treating patient symptoms and diseases
·
Integrate foundational concepts of anatomy, physiology, and medical terminology into the analysis of symptoms, diagnosis, and treatment options for informing accurate coding practices
Prompt
Your patient analysis should answer the following prompt
Using the provided Final Project Patient File (attached), critically analyze the patient’s medical and family history and dissect the discharge chart from the patient’s recent visit. There are several inaccuracies and inconsistencies in this patient file; the pages of the file that contain issues are marked in the upper right - hand corner with red bookmarks.

Your Feeling on the Matter…..
It is no secret that our nation and our public conversation about LGBT matters has changed in the last, not only 100 years, but more drastically in the last 20 years. This latest generation of kids (Millennials) have grown up in the most accepting and diverse American culture to date with respect to LGBT individuals, their families, and the issues they stand for.
This week we watched the dramatized version of The Laramie Project. A play that was written to expose and relay the stories and horrific events of that day that happened to Mathew Shepard. As mentioned before, this is a play that is performed all over the United States. This play, like so many other plays that deal with LGBT themes and issues have been coming more and more to the fray of our national and public conversation. We have seen the rise of gay and lesbian characters in all of our entertainment including TV, film, and of course the Theatre. We see how the last 20 years of LGBT pointed entertainment has shaped the political discourse of our nations power brokers. We are changing laws and shaping society to a far greater degree in even the last 5 years so as to tackle the discrimination against this particular group. Gay marriages are now legal all over the states and those that would decry the LGBT lifestyle as something to be covered or shunned for cultural or religious reasons are now beginning to be seen as radical and out of touch where just 10-15 years ago those same voices held the majority of political power in our nation. How far we have come from even prop 8 in California that would have legalized same sex marriage in the state but was soundly struck down in 2008. If that prop was up for vote today it would win resoundingly.
The waves of change are boundless and can be seen almost daily as we here more reports of judges, states, and the federal government ending discrimination all over the nation. Remember that a historic ruling from the US Supreme court, you can be gay and allowed to marry who you love and with who makes you happy in all 50 states.
Here is the question(s) I have......
In light of the play you have now watched, the articles you have read, your research and your own general awareness and knowledge of the state of our national discourse with respect to LGBT issues:
Do you feel that it has been a positive 15 to 20 years for Gay and Lesbian issues, their families and the way we feel about them?
Do you feel that we have moved in a positive way as a nation since the Mathew Shepard event in 1998? Why or why not?
How and why do you believe we have changed so quickly in our society toward the LGBT community?
Have you seen any change in your own life with how you feel or behave toward Gay and Lesbian individuals?
Would you watch a play or view a film or television that highlights LGBT themes and values? Why or why not?

The suicide bombing that took place April 3, 2017 on the metro line in St. Petersburg brought horror back to Russia’s reality, as it claimed 14 lives and injured 51 others (“St. Petersburg Attack: What We Know,” 2017). While this terrified the nation anew, the sad reality is that this is just one more in the list of attacks by terrorists on public infrastructure that have rocked the country since 2009 (“St. Petersburg Attack: What We Know,” 2017). The fact that this event took place in such a commonly used area/line of transportation creates fear, not just in the people of Russia, but in people all around the world, as it shows how quickly terrorism can strike and how hard it is to prevent.
The United States has a unique approach to dealing with the matter of terrorism and trying to prevent future attacks, and the nine questions in the article outline what each one of them are. The questions try to make sure the information acquired about attacks result in real information, and not the conjectures that have been common in the media as of late. They focus on quickly determining if another attack is likely to come, who was involved, and both the ties and the motivation that the attacker had (“St. Petersburg Attack: What We Know,” 2017). The importance of these questions are in the way that they try to quickly establish whether the authorities need to be urgently searching for another possible site of attack and related bombs, as well as whether the people who did it are dead or on the loose. These all matter in trying to contain the damage from such attacks and limit the chance that they will happen again.
All nine of the questions are helpful and important ones to consider, but the top two that are the most important are “Is there another attack coming?” and “Were the attackers part of a larger network?” (Byman, 2017). The first question that tries to discern if another attack is coming is important because this is how law enforcement can know to search other similar, or related, places, and to alert the public to stay in doors. Additionally, it can help police keep an eye on suspicious persons in areas that would be prime targets for terrorism because of their potential casualty count, and so this question provides the high alert that is necessary. Furthermore, the question regarding whether the attackers were part of a larger network is important to ask and answer because these networks result in future attacks and a general state of concern regarding their mission (Byman, 2017). If the network is identified and put at the center of investigations, then authorities can learn enough about it to hopefully disrupt future plans for violence and destruction. Getting to know the enemy is the key to beating him, and in terrorism this is a complicated undertaking, but one that has to be done in order to increase security.

Legal Issues in Criminal Justice Administration
DRNC Scenario
B
ackground
The following story is a fictional account of
planning and preparation
leading up to the mythical Democratic-Republican National Convention
(DRNC)
event in Miami, Florida.
The story is loosely based on an amalgamation of real life occurrences in the lead up to the Free Trade Area of the Americas
(FTAA) C
onference in Miami, Florida in 2003.
The names of all the characters in the story are fictional.
As you read the story, keep in mind what ethical and legal issues are likely to arise.
At the end of the story, you will be asked to respond to several questions related to
this scenario.
For the DRNC event, Miami-Dade has formed a Host Committee,
similar to the model used for
the Super Bowl Host Committees of the past.
The Host Committee is a small group of 15 appointed personnel from various county and municipal agencies, as well as the private sector.
Miami-Dade Police Department Director Melanie Duncan is one of the committee members.
The Host Committee is chaired by Mr. Horace Copeland, a long-time assistant to the County Manager, Miguel Herrera.
The purpose of the Host Committee is to plan for the overall event.
As such, they are responsible for recommending policy, but not for enacting policy.
The enactment of policy remains the ultimate responsibility of the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC).
The Democratic-Republican National Party (DRNP) has designated Ms. Cassandra Armand as its chair of the DRNC’s Committee on Arrangements (COA).
The COA is the main organizer from the DRNP for this event.
Ms. Armand and Mr. Copeland from the Host Committee work hand-in-hand to plan this event and their recommendations to the BOCC carry considerable weight for policy formulation.
Miami-Dade Police has been designated as the
lead local agency
and lead operational planner for the event security.
This policy differs significantly from the 2003 FTAA in which the City of Miami was designated as the lead local agency.
Since this event meets the criteria of a National Special Security Event (NSSE), the U.S. Secret Service has been designated as the
lead coordinating agency
with overarching statutory authority for the planning and execution of the event.
Supervisory Special Agent Samantha Salerno has been appointed as
the lead agent in-charge for the event
.
So far a few major planning decisions have been made.
The American Airlines Arena in Downtown Miami has been selected as the location for the main event of the convention.
Because of its proximity to the entrance to the Port of Miami, the selection of this arena poses some challenges regarding the balance between buffer zone security and the normal, day-to-day business of the Port, which includes cargo traffic, as well as cruise ship passenger traffic.
Moreover, the local merchants .

You work for the local public health department in the Immunization .docx
You work for the local public health department in the Immunization Registry and Vaccine for Children (VFC) division. Your job is to interface with local pediatricians and primary care physicians, making sure immunizations are being properly reported and the providers that participate in the VFC immunization program are properly documenting vaccine use and patient information.
You have been briefed by the chief epidemiologist who states that a growing public complacency about the need for childhood immunizations has resulted in record low levels of registry immunizations against preventable diseases. You must put together a plan to educate the physicians of this potentially serious risk to the community and make them aware of the growing population of unimmunized and under-immunized children and what they may do to help correct this concern.
Respond to the following:
How will you approach the physician community and get their buy-in to increase immunization efforts with their patient populations?
What benefits does an up-to-date immunization registry provide to (1) parents, (2) immunization providers, and (3) the public?
What educational materials, services, programs, or support can local, state, and federal public health agencies offer to the providers and the community for improving registry statistics?
Write your response in a minimum of 300–400 words, providing relevant references. Apply APA standards to citation of sources.

Society and Its Discontents
Through the character of Ivan Ilyich, Tolstoy offers a critique of affluent Russian society in the nineteenth century. Tolstoy describes Ivan’s life as the “most simple and most ordinary and therefore the most terrible.” What makes Ivan’s life terrible? What aspects of his contemporary society is Tolstoy trying to critique? You might also consider how the servant Gerasim is presented as an alternative approach to life.

The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
