You are a public administrator for a large public agency. Your senior leadership team has a track record of successes in working together over the past several years. In the last year, you have sensed a certain degree of stagnation in the team. Members that previously spoke up seem complacent and dispassionate about issues. You have felt under pressure to perform recently and admit this increased stress may have contributed to a more autocratic leadership style on your part. Analyze the current situation considering concepts of communication and conflict. Discuss actions that may promote open and honest interactions among team members, including the promotion of healthy conflict. .

You are a social worker at an out-patient mental health facility. Your new client presents with a diagnosis of bipolar disorder and noncompliance with her medications. To deal with the mood swings, she has been abusing painkillers and alcohol daily. Currently homeless, she has been sleeping on her friends’ couches. Her boyfriend is emotionally and verbally abusive and has just taken her last twenty dollars. She works at a local gas station, but she has to depend on friends for rides to work. As a result, she missed several work shifts. Her boss, who was understanding until now, recently told her she could not miss any more days, due to a lack of transportation. There are many short, intermediate, and long-term problems the client could address in this scenario. How do you choose which problem to tackle first? One trap for social workers is thinking that they know which problem or concern should take priority and what is best for the client. Rather, what the client feels is the priority is what should take precedence. In this scenario, how would you start the GIM planning process with the client? As her social worker, you might feel that going into drug and alcohol rehab is a priority. However, she might feel that keeping her job, and therefore getting a car, is much more of a priority. If you disregard her goals and instead refer her to an inpatient rehab program, how successful will she be at completing that goal? For this Discussion , review this week’s Resources. Select either the course-specific case study for John or Debra and consider how the social worker applied the GIM in the case study. Also, think about any cultural competence techniques the social worker might have explicitly or implicitly used in the case. Then reflect on why working collaboratively with that client is vital to the treatment planning process. Then, select three of the eight planning steps discussed in the course text and think about how you might utilize those planning steps to foster empowerment during that process. Finally, reflect on the skills you might use to ensure the treatment planning process is mutually agreed upon by you and the client and consider how the treatment planning process affects implementation of treatment. Post a description of how the social worker in the course-specific case study you selected applied the GIM. Include in your post an explanation of any cultural competence techniques the social worker might have explicitly or implicitly used in the case. Explain why working collaboratively with the client is vital to the treatment planning process. Then, describe the three planning steps you selected and explain how you might utilize those planning steps to foster empowerment during that process. Finally, explain one practice behavior skill you might use to ensure the treatment planning process is mutually agreed upon for you and the client and further explain how use of that skill might affect implementation of treatment.

You are a police investigator in Centervale. Recently, there have been complaints from prosecutors, as well as several victims, about the interview techniques used by law enforcement (both first responders and investigators). The prosecution is losing cases because of inadmissible statements made to law enforcement by victims and witnesses in response to improper questioning. Because of their bad experiences early in the investigations, some victims refuse to come to court and testify. There are continuous complaints by victim services specialists that first responders do not provide victims with all their rights as governed by law. The chief of police in Centervale is concerned about lawsuits and unsatisfied victims and asks you, one of the most experienced detectives of the Centervale Police Department, to attend patrol briefings and train officers in some dos and don'ts of interviewing victims of crime, especially women and children. You are also asked to go over some of the most important victims' rights that could cause the most legal trouble if not followed properly by the Centervale Police Department. You realize that a proper interviewing lesson could take eight to sixteen hours, and you know law enforcement must strictly follow numerous victims' rights, but you have been given only fifteen to twenty minutes in which to teach, what you feel is the most important information. Submission Details: By Saturday, June 18, 2016 , in a minimum of 250 words, post to the Discussion Area your responses to the following: Identify and describe the training information you feel would be most important, if you had only ten minutes to teach law enforcement officers about: Interviewing women and children Crime victims' rights Give your reasoning for the training information that you identified as most important for both training programs. .

You are a group of community activists in a small city. Recently you have become aware that a substantial number of teenagers have been running away from home or have become "throw-aways" when their parents have abandoned them. Most of these run-aways/throw-aways leave the community for larger cities where you suspect they become victims of all the dangers waiting for "street kids". You want very much to prevent this from happening. You want to provide them with an "anchor in the community" that will prevent them from running away and will give them stability, especially to complete their education. You have already approached the county Family Services agency and were disappointed to learn that they had little or no interest in your project. You have decided to create a small, not-for-profit 501C-3 agency and pursue the project yourselves. Prepare a report for your small group. Review the youth services regulations for the group's target state.New York State Summarize key points from these regulations that you think will be important as your group designs its outcomes, its process, its information system and its methods of evaluation. Share your ideas with the small group. .

Written Assignment: Analyzing Interpersonal Relationships & Conflict Styles Part I : Review the Skill Development Experience on page 152 of your textbook. For the four questions provided, write a concise reflection for each question. Interpersonal relationships, as they’re expressed in the popular media, provide an interesting perspective on the ways in which our culture views relationships and on the principles of relationship communication it teaches. Think of all the media you’re exposed to throughout an average day and consider the messages you are receiving about relationships. Look at the media in any form—television (in dramas, sitcoms, commercials, talk shows, reality shows), newspapers, magazines, blogs, websites, music, and film—and try to identify the values and attitudes they communicate about interpersonal relationships. Think about these examples: ●Do the popular media approve of certain types of relationships and not others? ●How do the media “define” friendship, love, and family? ●What do the media say about the rules for relationships? ●How do the media deal with the dark side of interpersonal relationships, such as relationship violence and spousal abuse? Part II : On page 161 of your textbook, different conflict styles are described. Using the questions provided in Table 8.1, write a concise reflection about which style describes you best. Consider how adopting a different style may be positive or negative for you. TABLE 8.1 Five Conflict Styles and Their Consequences Here are the five conflict styles and their likely consequences or outcomes (Blake & Mouton (1984). Do you have a general conflict style or does your conflict style vary with your relationship to the other person? For example, are you likely to engage in conflict differently depending on the other person, whether friend, romantic partner, work colleague, and so on? Competing: great concern for your needs; little concern for other’s Avoiding: little concern for your own or other’s needs Compromising: some concern for your own and other’s needs Accommodating: great concern for other’s needs; little concern for your own Collaborating: great concern for your own and other’s needs Both Parts I & II should be included in the same Word (.docx) file and should total about one double-spaced page in length. Submit your assignment to the Dropbox, located at the top of this page. For instructions on how to use the Dropbox, read these step-by-step instructions . See the Syllabus section "Due Dates for Assignm .
