Competency Develop examples of ethical and privacy concerns associated with data supporting business intelligence efforts. Instructions You work for a tourism board at a top destination within the United States that among other tasks, sends information out to potential visitors, performs direct mailing campaigns, solicits newsletter sign ups, and helps drive economic growth by attracting visitors to the destination. The direct mailing team for your organization accomplishes this through email blasts, mailing flyers, and texting campaigns. The address list the organization has in place is seen as a strategic advantage, as it has extensive information about potential and repeat visitors, and has been compiled from various sources over the years. The organization has recently developed a mobile application and hopes to leverage mobile devices and tablets to help make obtaining information easier for the visitors, as well as collecting more information on patterns of consumer behavior. Since the mobile application will have access to a great deal of personal information belonging to the users (email address, GPS data, phone number, etc.), it has been suggested this information be automatically uploaded to the direct mailing database, and signing them up for various promotional efforts and communications. It had also been suggested there may be an opportunity for the marketing department to partner with the local theme parks and attractions within the area, sharing the databases from each to form one large database to reach more users. The idea has been presented to the organization's legal counsel for review, as the IT team is fairly certain the end user agreement for the mobile application states the collected information can be reused and sold as needed. The public relations team has taken a different position and feels there is potential for backlash in social media as well as other public outcries should the data be sold to or shared with other organizations, and questions whether the data should even be stored since there are additional pieces of data being collected that have no purposeful use for the tourism board. They have asked for your input on the matter. The questions they are presenting you with include: What are the general practices surrounding data collection? How can privacy violations occur? Are there any risks, issues, or problems associated with collecting and storing data that isn’t needed now, in the event it may be needed in the future? What information do other organizations collect? The end user agreement says we CAN collect, reuse, and sell data as needed, but does that mean we should? Is there a level of ethical data collection and storage that we should be considering? The task: In addition to the presentation, prepare a memo to the head of the public relations department outlining any possible risks associated with collecting and using the data in the manner described. Your report should include general.

Competency Assess the development of societal standards in relation to social media and how this can alter social norms in everyday life. Instructions The prevalence of social media has had a huge impact on society in the area of how we tend to relate to each other and on what is considered to be normal in general. Taking a look at the ways in which social media changes attitudes and "norms" makes for an interesting study, and one that is applicable to understanding how society is slowly changing over time. For this assignment, you will first conduct your own research on the effects of social media on societal norms (Part 1), then you will examine what has been found through previous research conducted by others (Part 2). Part 1: Compare and contrast the attitudes of two cohorts of people; one that consists of five people that rarely use social media and one cohort of five people that uses social media 2 or more hours a day. Create a list of five people that you know that use social media at least 2 or more hours per day. This group of people will make up your first cohort. Then create a list of five people that you know that either do not use social media or use it very rarely. Take into account age when creating the cohorts, and try to keep the ages as similar as possible between the cohorts. Keeping a certain level of consistency in the two cohorts will help to negate the potential effects of generational differences. Provide a brief description of each of the ten people you are going to interview divided into their respective cohorts. In other words, list the five people in the social media at least 2 or more hours a day, and provide a brief description of each along with why you chose them. Then provide a list of the five people that rarely or never use social media, and provide a brief description of each along with why you chose them. Interview the participants to learn the similarities and differences between the two cohorts as it relates to attitudes, lifestyles, and relationships. Write a two-page paper comparing and contrasting what you learned about the two cohorts. Be sure to relate your findings to cultivation theory and socialization theory in the paper. Part 2: Now you will compare your research with research findings through previous research conducted by others. Look up at least 3 articles in the Rasmussen Library that relate to the topic of social media and its impact on society. You are not limited to articles that are strictly written on the specific topic of social media and norms. Articles that are covering social media and society are available from a wide number of angles. After studying these articles, write a two-page paper on what you learned on the topic of social media and its potential impact on societal attitudes, customs, and norms. .

Comparing Two Schools of Thought Behaviorism and psychoanalysis (or psychodynamic theory—not the psychotherapy approach) are sometimes considered theoretically opposite. However, they share some characteristics in common. In a similar way, one could consider humanistic and cognitive psychology to be quite different, yet there are areas of common ground here as well. Thinking about similarities and differences of schools of thought can help us understand their unique characteristics. Choose two schools of thought (the mental testing movement, behaviorism, psychoanalytic theory, humanistic psychology, cognitive psychology, or psychobiology) and discuss how they differ. What distinguishes the schools of thought from each other, in terms of their principles, values, subject matter, research approaches, and applied methods? Also address which factors they share with each other, using the aforementioned attributes as they apply. Remember that we are exploring comprehensive theories of human nature and behavior, not psychotherapeutic techniques (for example, cognitive behavioral therapy or psychoanalytic therapy). .

Comparing Leadership Models XXXX XXXXX LDR 531 JXXX 1, 20XX Dr. Leo Maganares 1 2 Comparing Leadership Models Shared leadership has emerged as a response to rapidly changing organizations and an increase in the complexity of tasks (de Cruz, 2019). Shared leadership can quickly and effectively solve problems, increase performance, and improve organizational productivity. With a team of experience, skills, and resources a strong leadership foundation can be formed to solve complex problems and initiate change to improve the overall productivity of organizations. Chapter 12 Case Incident One: Sharing is Performing Obstacles that can be encountered with shared leadership are social loafing, conflict with roles, differences in opinions, beliefs, values, negative mental models, task conflicts, and diversity issues (Robbins & Judge, 2019). Undefined roles can cause conflicts of ideas, opinions, leadership authority, and social loafing. All of these can have a negative effect on the team. In this case, Christ looked to McGinley, as did Martin, to Barrs to form a shared leadership to solve two complex organizational problems (Robbins & Judge, 2019). The organization I work for formed a shared leadership quality team made up of leaders from the entire organization to determine clinical competencies for nursing. When the findings indicated that competencies were not standardized or based on evidence-based practices, they developed a program that would improve nursing competencies aligned with the vision and mission of the organization. This program was aligned with the mission of the organization to ensure that nurses were competent in their skills to provide high-quality care. The leadership style that would best promote shared leadership in this case, would be Hersey and Blanchard’s situational leadership theory where the focus is on “directing, coaching, supporting, and delegating behavior” (Thompson & Glaso, 2018, p. 575). Leading a shared leadership team as CEO it would be important to define roles, assess team readiness, skills, knowledge, commitment, performance, and provide structure. Leadership styles would need to be adjusted based on the skills, knowledge, and readiness of the follower. Recruiting team members that are highly motivated, positive, conscientious, and have high abilities and intelligence can help improve the success of a team (Robbins & Judge, 2019). Provide an environment of trust, and openness allowing individuals the freedom to express opinions, views, and disagreements. Open communication can empower, encourage creativity, build trust, and promote confidence. To reduce social loafing, goals, roles, and tasks need to be defined so team members know how they will collectively contribute to the team effort and success. Organizational support, adequate resources, building a climate of trust, and providing rewards to individuals based on team performance are all strategies that contribute to the succe.
