The Case of Sam Sam is a 62-year-old, widowed, African American male. He is unemployed, receives Social Security benefits, and lives on his own in an apartment. Sam has minimal peer relationships, choosing not to socialize with anyone except his daughter, with whom he is very close. Sam raised his daughter as a single father after his wife passed away. Melissa is 28 years old and works as an emergency medical technician (EMT). When Sam was 7 years old, he was placed in foster care and has had very limited contact with his extended family. Prior to September 11, 2001, Sam had a steady employment history in food services and retail. He had no psychiatric history before that time. Sam reported his religious background is Catholic, but he is not affiliated with a congregation or church. Sam became depressed and psychotic sometime after 9/11 and had to be taken to an emergency room. He was hospitalized at that time for several weeks. His mental status exam (MSE) and diagnostic interview showed no history of alcohol or substance abuse issues, and he had no criminal background or current legal issues. Sam was released to outpatient care but was deemed unable to return to work. At that time, he had a diagnosis of major depression with psychotic features; he also has a history of high blood pressure and migraines. After several additional multiple psychiatric hospitalizations, he was gradually stabilized. Sam has been seeing a psychiatrist once a month for over a decade for medication management and is currently prescribed Depakote®, Abilify, and Wellbutrin®. Sam has a positive history of medication and treatment compliance. He was treated by a social worker at an outpatient program for about 2 years after his hospitalizations for his psychosis and depression. He gradually stopped attending sessions with the social worker after his symptoms stabilized, and his termination from the outpatient program was deemed appropriate; he continued to see the psychiatrist monthly for medication management. After about 10 years of seeing only the psychiatrist, Sam scheduled a meeting with this social worker for increased feelings of depression. These feelings were brought on after his daughter moved out of the apartment they had shared for many years to live with her boyfriend. He reported difficulty adjusting to living alone and said he often feels lonely and anxious. He reported during sessions with his social worker that he speaks to his daughter frequently, and although she only lives 10 blocks away, he misses her terribly. Our sessions for the last 3 months have focused on his mixed feelings around his daughter’s new life with her boyfriend. He said he is happy that she is happy but misses her very much. I emphasized his strengths and helped him reframe his situation by focusing on the positive changes in her life as well as his own life. Our goals were to help him reduce his symptoms of anxiety and begin searching for new opportunities for socialization outsi.

The case of OD in an NGO in India Nisha Nair Indian Institute of Management Indore, Indore, India, and Neharika Vohra Indian Institute of Management Ahmedabad, Ahmedabad, India Abstract Purpose – This paper aims to report an organizational development (OD) exercise carried out in a prominent non-governmental organization (NGO) that works in the area of rights and advocacy in India. Design/methodology/approach – The exercise was part of the first author’s graduate program, which required the application of behavioral science theory to a live organization under the supervision of her advisor, the second author. The organizational development exercise spread over four months, involved entering an organization, interacting with key participants and stakeholders of the organization both formally and informally, diagnosing issues facing the organization and a mirroring exercise with the management at the end of the intervention to provide feedback. Findings – Some of the issues and improvement areas that emerged through the exercise are discussed in the paper. It also offers reflections on some of the key lessons learnt during the process of intervention, with implications for OD in developmental organizations. Originality/value – The paper offers insights into OD interventions in the developmental sector, posing a different set of challenges than conventional organizations, and also because the organization itself was in a state of flux at the time of the intervention. Keywords Non-governmental organizations, Business development, Organizational effectiveness, Labour efficiency, Change management, India Paper type Case study Introduction Organization development (OD) work has largely been carried out in business or for profit organizations. Bargal and Schmid (1992) refer to the paucity of literature on consultation done in developmental organizations. OD in nonprofit organizations provides some unique challenges for the consultant that may not exist in business organizations (Ramos, 2007; Waysman and Savaya, 1997). Developmental organizations are thought to differ from for-profit organizations in a number of ways (Brown and Covey, 1987). Studies have shown that employees in developmental organizations seek greater autonomy and less organizational control in their work (Mirvis and Hackett, 1983). Since there is a need for flexibility and local discretion in the working of developmental organizations, they tend to be more informal and loosely organized than business organizations ( Joseph, 2000; Lewis, 2003). Another often cited concern is the existence of high role ambiguity and lack of clarity about roles and procedures in such organizations (Goldman and Kahnweiler, 2000; McDonald, 1999). In his study of organizational change in a human service organization, Ramos (2007) discusses the poor communication across the various units/programs of the nonprofit. Given that values and ideology play a central role in developmental organizations (B.

The Case of “Hector” Case Study 1: Chronic Hepatitis (Cirrhosis of Liver) & Wernicke-Korsakoff Syndrome I. Case History Background Information Hector is a 44 year old, Hispanic male of low socioeconomic status. He lives on the southwest side of Chicago, Illinois in a neighborhood that is heavily populated with people of his ethnic background. Hector lives in a 3 bedroom home that he is currently renting. Family History/Current Relationships Hector was born in San Juan, Mexico and was raised in a two parent household, and has four siblings. Hector is the youngest of the four children. He comes from a Catholic background. Hector’s father worked as a carpenter, and his mother was a homemaker. Hector’s father was an alcoholic and was both physically and verbally abusive to the family. Hector lost his father at age 10 due to a physical altercation that took place at a local watering hole, which resulted in a fatal injury. His mother decided to relocate to the United States where she could receive the support of her family. At age 23, Hector met his current wife. Hector lives with his wife Consuela (age 40), and his 3 children Veronica (age 8), Mateo (age 6) and, Alejandro (age 2). Recently, his mother, and two cousins have moved into the home due to medical and financial reasons. Hector indicates that although times are hard, he is very committed to his family and grateful for their ongoing support. Support Systems Hector considers his family to be his primary support system. He indicates that they work very hard to be there for one another no matter what the situation. He indicates that he has a few friends but feel that they are not necessarily positive support systems, but can often times provide an outlet to stress. Education Hector has not graduated high school, but when time permits, he attends classes at a community agency who is assisting him with prep classes that will enable him to take the G.E.D. However, Hector admits that he is not able to consistently pursue obtaining his G.E.D because earning a living is his priority at this time. Employment Hector indicates that he is the primary provider in the home at this time. He indicates that they are able to receive some government assistance (Medicaid, food-stamps, WIC), but the income is supplemented, depending on his ability to obtain work. Hector currently works as a seasonal worker for a construction company. He reports that when he is actually called in to work, he can make decent money. However, there is question as to whether Hector receives his salary “under the table”. Hector does not have reliable transportation. Although he owns a mini-van, he reports that it is in constant need of repair. Hector chooses use public transportation and carpooling as a primary mode of transportation, because his license is suspended due to receiving his second DUI/DWI. II. Description of Presenting Problem Hector reports that he knows that he has an issue wi.

The Case of Joe the Jerk 1 The Case of Joe the Jerk (or, the Very Capable Jerk) You have been asked to consult with a module manager in a public service center of the Social Security Administration. A module is a group of about forty workers who work together in processing claims for social security coverage (i.e., requests for the beginning of payments, or other services such as changes and information). A module has all the specialists needed to process a claim from beginning to end——claims authorizers, benefits authorizers, file clerks, and typists/word processors. Each module has a module manager (hereafter, MM) and two assistant module managers (AMMs) who lead and manage the team of workers in the module. The MM, Joan, has a serious concern about one of the AMMs, Joe. Joe is very intelligent, talented, and younger than most AMMs. As far as his knowledge of the work and technical details is concerned, he is extremely promising and has excellent prospects to move up to become MM and then move on up beyond that. Joe, however, is arrogant in his dealings with the workers in the module. He talks down to people and treats them curtly and rudely. He behaves as if he deserves more special treatment and attention than the module members because he is an AMM. On the other hand, Joe also takes some stands and actions that are not necessarily bad or unjustified. Some incidents: One of the file clerks arrives late fairly often. Joe has begun to confront her very aggressively, in front of the other members of the module, criticizing her for arriving late. He has initiated disciplinary action against her. Some other members of the module have pointed out to Joe and Joan that the file clerk is a young single mother with a lot of personal problems. Her brother was recently shot to death in a street fight, apparently drug related. Her child is sick a lot and she has problems getting good child care. Joe, however, insists on going forward with the disciplinary action, saying he cannot let a person arrive late regularly without being unfair to those who do arrive on time. Besides, he says, it is essentially illegal for him not to take action. Joan has to decide whether to intervene in the disciplinary action or let it go through. Joan is concerned about Joe’s effect on motivation and work satisfaction in the module. He speaks very condescendingly to module members who make mistakes, acting as if he is very superior to them and a lot smarter than they are——which is often true, in a sense. Joan was so concerned about growing tensions in the module that she arranged for a weekend retreat, where the group went through some team development exercises with a consultant. Throughout the retreat and the exercises, Joe had a virtual sneer on his face, and he made repeated sarcastic comments about the time the group was wasting on ―touchy-feely nonsense. The members of the module have group meetings to discuss problems and changes. Joe has gotten up and wal.

The Case of Emily P.Emily is a 62-year-old, single, heterosexual, African American female who seeks treatment for anxiety. She says she is very concerned since she recently has been pulling her hair out,and it has become noticeable on top of her head. She is taking to wearing hats,which she finds acceptable. She worries about many things, which is not new to her,and she finds that scrubbing her home clean is her best therapy to ease her anxiety.Emily reports that germs have been a regular concern of hers since adolescence, when she learned in health classes about the risks of serious diseases including sexual transmittable disease. Emily presented with meticulous grooming, although the knees of her pants were noted as worn. She has arthritis in herspine and knees and uses a walker to help her manage mobility safely. With her physical disabilities it is challenging sometimes to scrub clean the house daily. This worries her shouldshe get a visitor and the house is not in order as she would like it. She is no longer working,so the amount of time it takes her to scrub the house clean doesn’t delay her daily schedule as it used to.Emily receives Social Security income and is not employed. Although the Social Security is acceptable,her living expenses are always a concern to her. She lives alone in a subsidized apartment in the same building as her 72-year-old, unmarried sister,so rent should not increase. Emily and her sister shared an apartment for over 30 years, beginning when each of their marriages dissolved. Emily reported that when her sister began a romantic relationship 5 years ago, Emily began to feel very anxious and started to cry often. Emily moved into an apartment down the hall in the building and began to pull the hair from her head,hiding her hair loss by wearing wigs. This behavior occurred at different times and resulted in scabbing. Emily said she feels better after but does not always notice how much she is pulling. Her sister learned of Emily’s hair pulling after her wig slipped off one evening to reveal bald spots. She set up a schedule over the past few months with her sister to help stop the hair pulling. Sometimes it works and sometimes it doesnot. She is worried that she will be disappointing her sister by not sticking to the schedule to reduce her hair pulling. Her sister encouraged Emily to seek treatment rather than “hiding her ways.” Emily is reliant upon her sister for transportation and for a sense of social and emotional connection. Emily worries about bothering her sister due to her transportation needs,and she worriesthatwithouther sister she would be helpless. She knows she is edgy with her sister often and worries that might be from a lack of good sleep. She agreed to this session even though she is pessimistic about anything working. During our initial visit at our local mental health center, Emily shared that when she was 2 years old her mother died from tuberculosis, and the following year her father, an a.

The C-130 is large and unmaneuverable compared to tactical jets. With a C-130 crew of 7-10 compared to the 1-2 of tactical jets, it would be risky to operate the C-130 exposed to enemy defenses. So although the C-130's readiness would be increased by keeping it airborne for earlier snatch of descending aviators, it wouldn't be wise to hold it airborne near enemy targets. It should be kept in 'safe areas' over Iran or maybe offshore until needed. But the pronged C-130 is a potential addition to other rescue forces such as helicopters, so the C-130 too is subject to the same kinds of time delays in communication to get it headed to the site of a potential downing. (And remember it has to get there before the surface is reached by the downed aviator.) How many people could each C-130 theoretically catch mid air? Is it one person rescued per plane? THE TIMING IS TIGHT, SO GETTING A SECOND DESCENDING AVIATOR WOULD BE VERY RARE EVEN IF TECHNICALLY FEASIBLE. How fast is the C-130 compared to other options like a search and rescue helicopter? MAX SPEED OF A C130 IS 368 MPH, BUT THAT'S GOING 'DOWNHILL. CRUISING SPEED IS UNDER 300 MPH. If a C-130 didn't reach it's window of time to grab a pilot midair, is it feasible for this type of plane to conduct the rescue on the ground? NOT VIA THE PRONG (WHICH IS INTENDED TO CATCH AN UNFURLED CHUTE). BUT THERE ARE TECHNIQUES SUCH AS FULTON SKYHOOK THAT MIGHT WORK (BUT ARE NOT PART OF YOUR PROBLEM). What elevation would the tactical aircraft pilots be flying at, and could they lose altitude after getting hit and while still assessing their situations? (Important for determining time constraints.) SMART WEAPONS PERMIT DELIVERY FROM 15,000 FEET OR ABOVE How would the C-130 locate a pilot upon arriving at the likely downing position? Visually? Some sort of beacon? /Presumably, sighting the pilot, adjusting to compensate for the pilot's descent, and making the grab would all take a good deal of time, especially if the C-130 comes under enemy fire and must conduct evasive maneuvers. VISUALLY/RADIO WITH PILOT IN CHUTE/PERHAPS GPS IT WOULD BE QUITE RISKY FOR THE PILOT DESCENDING OR AFTER REACHING THE SURFACE, BUT HE/SHE MIGHT USE FLARES TO MAKE SIGHTING BY RESCUE CREWS EASIER. YES, TIME IS OF THE ESSENCE You mentioned that C-130s are manned by 7-10 people. What is the typical size of a S&R helicopter crew, for comparison? 3-4 A C-130 would probably be an attractive target for Iran's capable air defense systems. How well is the aircraft able to deal with enemy fire? PROBLEMATIC Would it be escorted during S&R? LIKELY, BY JETS Would S&R helicopters be any less vulnerable (presumably not, as they would be descending to make pick-ups)?LESS VULNERABLE DUE SMALLER RADAR SIGNATURE AND DUE GREATER MANEUVERABILITY .

THE CASE FOR MIXED REALITY TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE Stuart W. Volkow Alex C. Howland, PhD The world of work is rapidly changing. Now, more than ever, the need for continuous workforce training is needed. While there are many benefits to social and experiential offerings of face-to-face training, distance learning is typically more practical in today’s society. Unfortunately, current distance-learning technologies lack the immersion necessary for learning 21st-century skills. Virtual reality and augmented reality (i.e., mixed realities) can be more effective for training and learning than traditional flat-screen media. THE FUTURE OF WORK AND THE OPPORTUNITY OF MIXED REALITIES TO IMPROVE PERFORMANCE Robots, automation, and artificial intelligence are rapidly changing the face of the American workforce. As more and more jobs are filled by machines, experts agree that the education marketplace will need to change to keep up with the growing and widespread need for worker retrain- ing (Pew Research Center Internet & Technology, 2017). While there are benefits to the social and experiential learning experiences that can be offered in a face-to-face setting, distance learning is often an affordable and flexible way to provide that training. Unfortunately, most eLearning and webinar platforms only offer participants a passive experience (e.g., watch- ing videos, listening to a lecture). With corporate education, including employee orientation, onboarding, and skill building, passive learning is the norm, consisting largely of sitting down and consuming pre-packaged content in bulk that’s presented formally by an educator (Hinchcliffe, 2017). Such offerings do not help develop the vital skills needed in today’s increasingly global and dis- tributed economy, such as teaming, communication, leadership, and cultural intelligence. They also do not immerse learners into the context of the learning and provide the ability for learners to practice in a safe environment. As a result, many learners develop feelings of isolation, dis- connectedness, and frustration, often associated with poor retention rates and low return on investment (Willging & Johnson, 2009). Mixed-reality technologies (i.e., virtual reality and augmented reality) provide solutions to these problems by allowing people to come together in an active simulated environment that allows them to see and interact with fel- low participants and the simulated environment, regard- less of geographic location. Such technologies have the potential to dramatically transform education, training, and human performance. The aim of this article is to provide an overview of mixed realities (MR), to discuss theories associated with how the technologies can provide value for performance, and to provide specific examples of effective early-use cases. Introduction to Mixed Realities Well told, any story can be immersive. From spoken word to literature, film, and television, imagination work.

The Career Development of Mexican American Adolescent Women: A Test of Social Cognitive Career Theory Lisa Y. Flores The Ohio State University Karen M. O’Brien University of Maryland, College Park This study tested R. W. Lent, S. D. Brown, and G. Hackett’s (1994) model of career choice with 364 Mexican American adolescent women. Path analyses were run to determine the influence of contextual and social cognitive variables on career aspiration, career choice prestige, and traditionality. Partial support for the model was evidenced as nontraditional career self-efficacy, parental support, barriers, acculturation, and feminist attitudes predicted career choice prestige. Acculturation, feminist attitudes, and nontraditional career self-efficacy predicted career choice traditionality. Feminist attitudes and parental support predicted career aspiration. The paths between nontraditional career interests and the 3 outcome variables were not supported. Finally, none of the background contextual variables in this study predicted nontraditional career self-efficacy. Implications of the results and suggestions for future research are discussed. Mexican American women constitute a significant portion of the American population (U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1996), are underrepresented at all levels of education (Carter & Wilson, 1993; Lango, 1995; McNeill et al., 2001; U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1991), and are overrepresented in low-paying occupations tradi- tionally occupied by women (Arbona, 1989; Arbona & Novy, 1991; Ortiz, 1995). Relatively little empirical research has been conducted to identify the variables that contribute to the educa- tional and occupational underachievement of Mexican American women. Indeed, researchers have noted that the career development of Hispanics has received only slight consideration in the counseling and vocational literature (Arbona, 1990; Fouad, 1995; Hoyt, 1989; McNeill et al., 2001), and they have questioned the generalizability of career development theories to Hispanics (Ar- bona, 1990, 1995; Fitzgerald & Betz, 1994; Hackett, Lent, & Greenhaus, 1991). The purpose of this study was to investigate the applicability of a current model of career choice to the experiences of Mexican American adolescent women and to extend the current model to incorporate variables that are hypothesized to be salient to this population. It is well documented that Hispanics are the least educated when compared with other major racial/ethnic groups in the United States and that, among Hispanics, Mexican Americans have the lowest high school and college completion rates (47% and 6.5%, respectively; U.S. Bureau of the Census, 1996). Mexican Ameri- can women are less likely to graduate from college than their male counterparts (Ortiz, 1995; Tinajero, Gonzalez, & Dick, 1991), and their representation in higher education decreases significantly at each successive level (Carter & Wilson, 1993). Moreover, those Mexican American women who pu.

The budget process for Albany, GA is easy to get access to a simple search was able to get me a lot of information. My untrained eye is unsure how detailed it is, so it could be a lot of fluff. The budget process does seem to be coherent due to the different levels and approvals that the city manager has to go through. The citizens are involved through a public hearing this year was held on June 2nd for the FY 2021. From the search I did, I couldn’t find much commentary that showed that the community disagreed with the process. The process seems very open from the Albany city website. Albany commission leaders and the city manager are very vocal from the local news I see that they are held to task for many of their decisions. I’m not sure is it due to COVID19 but even I tune in the local Facebook open commission meetings now. The impression I get is that the city is more involved and cares more for showing to citizens that they are listening. The citizens from my view are pleased with that response and that difference from when I was in Valdosta I couldn’t even tell u who the major was. It's interesting as someone who has never thought to think how my city spends money to find a lot of resources breaking it down. Reference City of Albany. (n.d.).
