It provides definitions and comparisons of different organizational structures like functional, divisional and matrix. It also outlines steps in key management processes like planning, controlling and decision making.
The seven model
The document lists 6 people's names and details. It then provides information about the 7S model, developed by McKinsey consultants Tom Peters and Robert Waterman. It distinguishes between "hard" structural elements like strategy, structure, and systems, and "soft" cultural elements like staffing, skills, style, and shared values. The document explains each of the 7 elements in the model and how they interact at the core of an organization.
organization-5.pptx
This document discusses organizational structure, design, and culture. It describes different types of organizational structures like hierarchical, functional, and matrix. Well-designed organizations can gain advantages from dealing with contingencies, achieving competitive advantages, and managing diversity. The key factors in organizational design are the environment, business strategy, technology, and internal contingencies. Future organizational designs may include matrix, networked, learning, virtual, and boundaryless structures. Creating and sustaining a positive organizational culture involves defining expectations, focusing on engagement, socialization processes, and demonstrating appropriate behaviors from top management.
The Environment and Corporate Culture1. Define an organizational.docx
The Environment and Corporate Culture
1. Define an organizational ecosystem and how the general and task environments affect an organization’s ability to thrive.
The organizational environment consists of all elements existing outside the boundary of the organization that have the potential to affect and influence the organization. This environment consists of two layers: the task environment and the general environment.
The task environment is closer to the organization and includes the sectors that conduct day-to-day transactions with the organization and directly influence its basic operations and performance such as competitors, suppliers, and customers.
The general environment affects the organization indirectly. It includes social, economic, legal-political, international, natural, and technological factors that influence all organizations about equally.
2. Explain the strategies that managers use to help organizations adapt to an uncertain or turbulent environment.
The environment creates uncertainty for organization managers. Uncertainty means that managers do not have sufficient information about environmental factors to understand and predict environmental needs and changes. Two basic factors that influence uncertainty are the number of factors that affect the organization and the extent to which those factors change. Strategies to adapt to these changes in the environment include boundary-spanning roles, interorganizational partnerships, and mergers and joint ventures.
Boundary-spanning roles are assumed by people and/or departments that link and coordinate the organization with key elements in the external environment. Interorganizational partnerships are a popular strategy for adapting to the environment by reducing boundaries and increasing collaboration with other organizations. A merger is the combining of two or more organizations into one. A joint venture involves a strategic alliance or program by two or more organizations.
3. Define corporate culture.
Culture can be defined as the set of key values, beliefs, understandings, and norms shared by members of an organization. It can be analyzed at two levels. At the surface level are visible artifacts, which include things such as manner of dress, patterns of behavior, physical symbols, organizational ceremonies, and office layout. At a deeper, less obvious level are the expressed values and beliefs, which can be discerned from how people explain and justify what they do. These are values that members of the organization hold at a conscious level. They can be interpreted from the stories, language, and symbols that organization members use to represent them. Some values become so deeply embedded in a culture that members are no longer consciously aware of them. These basic, underlying assumptions and beliefs are the essence of culture and subconsciously guide behavior and decisions.
4. Provide organizational examples of symbols, stories, heroes, slogans, and ce.

The document discusses corporate culture and its impact on organizational performance. It defines corporate culture as the amalgamation of values, vision, mission, and day-to-day communication and interactions that create the atmosphere for how people work. Research shows corporate culture is the most important factor for driving innovation. An effective culture stems from understanding individuals and leadership relating goals in a way employees can internalize. It also requires promoting diverse thinking and shared knowledge to create collaborative cohesion that propels culture positively. Maintaining culture requires reinforcement at all employee lifecycle stages from hiring to retention.
Adaptive leadership toolkit
The document introduces the concept of adaptive leadership and provides tools to help identify and develop adaptive leadership skills. It discusses key fundamentals of an adaptive leadership approach including knowledge of the organization, willingness to project into the future, breaking down barriers, being disruptive, being agile, empowering others, and responding to changes. The tools include reflective questions, examples of adaptive leadership strategies, and a self-assessment to help leaders strengthen their adaptive skills.

Target’s Struggle with Ethical Culture
After being one of three U.S. retailers recognized for exemplary ethical standards and prac-
tices for seven consecutive years, Target was not included on Ethisphere Institute’s 2014
World’s Most Ethical Companies list (Adams, 2014). Ethisphere Institute conducts a survey
of large public and private international companies and publishes the annual list in its maga-
zine. Ethical culture is a component in ranking the most ethical companies, looking for the
adoption of a values-based culture in the organization, workforce acceptance of the culture,
and employee behavior according to the ethical culture.
Target’s fall from the list comes after a 2013 data breach of customer credit card data during ...

COM 600 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
The final project for this course is the creation of a leadership communication analysis and leadership communication plan.
Can we learn from the past to prepare for the future? It is a common refrain in the business world. However, nowhere are the lessons of the past more helpful
than in the field of corporate communications. All of us have seen, at one time or another, a company failing to get out the proper message. Whether it is about a
product recall or an unforeseen corporate crisis, companies can be slow to react and their reactions are not always the most appropriate for the situation at
hand.
Being an effective leader is more than just making an impressive speech. The most important aspect of communication is not speaking, but listening. To be an
effective speaker, you have to know that your message is being received and is being received in the manner that is expected. This paradox is what leads to most
communications problems in the corporate world. In this course, you will explore examples of leadership communications and learn not only how they do or do
not effectively reach their audiences, but the impact leadership communications can have on an organization. This experience will expose you to appropriate
ways of communicating as a leader and proper strategies and approaches to leadership.
For the summative assessment in this course, you will review an example of a leadership communication, discern how the plan could be improved in reaching
internal and external audiences, and determine its impact on the organization responsible for the communication. Then you will develop a leadership
communication plan designed to inform future leadership communications of the organization. This summative assessment will prepare you to create future
leadership communications and take advantage of future leadership opportunities.
The project is divided into three 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 Two, Four, and Six. The final product will be submitted in Module Nine.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
Evaluate the effectiveness of leadership communications of an organization for both internal and external audiences
Analyze the challenges and opportunities in creating a positive organizational culture for how they impact organizational growth
Develop strategies for developing future leadership communications directed to both internal and external audiences that are supported by systems
theory and best practices
Develop ethical frameworks for leadership for organizational decision-making regarding the development of leadership communications
Recommend improvements to leadership communications for guiding management on effectively delivering c ...

Organizational Foundations
As you strive to grow in your leadership skills and abilities, you will find that the context in which you work influences your motivation and areas of focus. In a similar vein, your commitment to developing professionally can contribute toward organizational effectiveness.
To that end, it is critical to recognize the importance of organizational culture and climate. In particular, through this week’s Learning Resources, you may consider several questions: How do an organization’s mission, vision, and values relate to its culture? What is the difference between culture and climate? Moreover, how are culture and climate manifested within the organization?
For this Discussion, you explore the culture and climate of your current organization or one with which you are familiar. You also consider decisions and day-to-day practices and the way they relate to the organization’s mission, vision, and values.
To prepare:
·
Review the information related to planning and decision making in health care organizations presented in the textbook,
Leadership Roles and Management Functions in Nursing: Theory and Application.
Consider how planning and decision making relate to an organization’s mission, vision, and values, as well as its culture and its climate.
·
Familiarize yourself with the mission, vision, and values of your organization or one with which you are familiar. Consider how the statements and actions of leaders and others within the organization support or demonstrate the organizational mission, vision, and values. In addition, note any apparent discrepancies between word and deed. Think about how this translates into expectations for direct service providers. Note any data or artifacts that seem to indicate whether behaviors within the organization are congruent with its mission, vision, and values.
·
Begin to examine and reflect on the culture and climate of the organization. How do culture and climate differ?
·
Why is it important for you, as a master’s-prepared nurse leader, to be cognizant of these matters?

A Guideline for Organizational Design.pdf
Organizational design is as much an art as it is a science. The process of creating a system in which people can work together to achieve common goals is highly complex and there is no one way to do it right.
In this article, we will explain what organizational design is, what drives organizational design, how to design an organization, and how an effective design can be measured in terms of organizational effectiveness.
Strategic management unit iv
The document discusses strategic management and strategy implementation. It covers key topics such as the strategic management process, organizational structure, resource allocation, strategic control systems, matching structure and control to strategy, and techniques for evaluating strategy. The strategic management process involves strategic planning, implementation, and control. Effective strategy implementation requires designing organizational structure and control systems, allocating resources, managing politics and conflict, and periodic evaluation of strategy. Strategic control systems provide managers with information to ensure strategy and structure are aligned and the organization is achieving its objectives.

This document discusses corporate entrepreneurship as a strategic approach for improving internal innovation performance. It reviews literature on corporate entrepreneurship and the relationship between intrapreneurship and strategic models. The paper proposes a conceptual framework that focuses on internal innovation over external mergers and acquisitions. Key factors for enhancing internal innovation include developing systems to motivate innovative behavior, concentrating entrepreneurial ventures, and educating employees on corporate entrepreneurship. Implementing strategic approaches can help corporations innovate internally and improve growth and profits, while accepting failure as part of the innovation process.

AJIBM_(2015) Organizational Culture and Innovative Work Behavior - A Case Stu...
This document summarizes a case study of an organizational culture assessment conducted at a manufacturer of packaging machines. The study aimed to investigate the current dominant organizational culture, level of innovative work behavior, and the preferred culture to enhance innovation. Employees perceived the current culture as a "market culture" focused on competitiveness and productivity. They reported being able to improve innovative work behavior, as shown by higher preferred scores. The preferred culture was a "family culture" emphasizing motivation and teamwork. While both family and market cultures can enhance innovation, only the market culture significantly correlated with innovative work behavior in this organization. A transition toward a more family culture is needed, but the market culture should still be preserved in the meantime.

1IntroductionThe objective of this study plan is to evaluate.docx

Introduction
The objective of this study plan is to evaluate the viability of our solution in relation to previously conducted test cases for companies operating in industries analogous to those of our own. In this section, we will concentrate on the manner in which these use cases measure the performance characteristics of various technical and behavioral qualities connected with an investment in technology made on behalf of a business. The viewpoints and data sources of stakeholders will be incorporated into our measuring system. This measurement framework will be utilized by us in order to assess and analyze the overall performance of our product. After the solution has been implemented, we will conduct post-implementation evaluations to determine how the solution affected the organization. The management of change will play a significant role in our overall research agenda. The plan will adhere to a certain format in providing the findings of the data analysis.
Measurement framework
In order to present an all-encompassing picture of performance, the measuring framework must to take into account the many stakeholder viewpoints as well as the various data sources. Perspectives from stakeholders may come from a variety of sources, such as the user community, project managers, or senior leadership. Customer feedback, system logs, and performance statistics are three examples of potential data sources (Thabane, 2009).
The purpose of the measurement framework is to supply stakeholders with viewpoints and data sources that may be utilized to evaluate the effectiveness of an investment in technology. The framework consists of four dimensions: behavioral characteristics, organizational aspects, user factors, and technological qualities (McShane, 2018). To evaluate how well the technology investment is working out, there is a separate set of performance indicators linked with each of the dimensions of the evaluation.
Indicators such as system uptime, reaction time, and throughput are examples of technical qualities. Indicators that make up behavioral qualities include things like user happiness, adoption rates, and the costs of training. Indicators like as return on investment (ROI) and total cost of ownership are included in the category of organizational variables (TCO). The metrics that make up user factors include things like user happiness, adoption rates, and training expenses (McShane, 2018).
The measuring framework draws its information from a variety of data sources, including organizational data, user data, performance data, and financial data. The return on investment (ROI) and total cost of ownership (TCO) of the technological investment may both be calculated using financial data (Jalal, 2017). The uptime, reaction time, and throughput of the system may all be evaluated based on the performance statistics. Data from users may be analyzed to determine factors such as user happiness, adoption rates, and the costs of training (Thabane,.

This document discusses organizational structure, design, and culture. It describes different types of organizational structures like hierarchical, functional, and matrix. Well-designed organizations can gain advantages from dealing with contingencies, achieving competitive advantages, and managing diversity. The key factors in organizational design are the environment, business strategy, technology, and internal contingencies. Future organizational designs may include matrix, networked, learning, virtual, and boundaryless structures. Creating and sustaining a positive organizational culture involves defining expectations, focusing on engagement, socialization processes, and demonstrating appropriate behaviors from top management.
The Environment and Corporate Culture1. Define an organizational.docx
The Environment and Corporate Culture
1. Define an organizational ecosystem and how the general and task environments affect an organization’s ability to thrive.
The organizational environment consists of all elements existing outside the boundary of the organization that have the potential to affect and influence the organization. This environment consists of two layers: the task environment and the general environment.
The task environment is closer to the organization and includes the sectors that conduct day-to-day transactions with the organization and directly influence its basic operations and performance such as competitors, suppliers, and customers.
The general environment affects the organization indirectly. It includes social, economic, legal-political, international, natural, and technological factors that influence all organizations about equally.
2. Explain the strategies that managers use to help organizations adapt to an uncertain or turbulent environment.
The environment creates uncertainty for organization managers. Uncertainty means that managers do not have sufficient information about environmental factors to understand and predict environmental needs and changes. Two basic factors that influence uncertainty are the number of factors that affect the organization and the extent to which those factors change. Strategies to adapt to these changes in the environment include boundary-spanning roles, interorganizational partnerships, and mergers and joint ventures.
Boundary-spanning roles are assumed by people and/or departments that link and coordinate the organization with key elements in the external environment. Interorganizational partnerships are a popular strategy for adapting to the environment by reducing boundaries and increasing collaboration with other organizations. A merger is the combining of two or more organizations into one. A joint venture involves a strategic alliance or program by two or more organizations.
3. Define corporate culture.
Culture can be defined as the set of key values, beliefs, understandings, and norms shared by members of an organization. It can be analyzed at two levels. At the surface level are visible artifacts, which include things such as manner of dress, patterns of behavior, physical symbols, organizational ceremonies, and office layout. At a deeper, less obvious level are the expressed values and beliefs, which can be discerned from how people explain and justify what they do. These are values that members of the organization hold at a conscious level. They can be interpreted from the stories, language, and symbols that organization members use to represent them. Some values become so deeply embedded in a culture that members are no longer consciously aware of them. These basic, underlying assumptions and beliefs are the essence of culture and subconsciously guide behavior and decisions.

The document discusses corporate culture and its impact on organizational performance. It defines corporate culture as the amalgamation of values, vision, mission, and day-to-day communication and interactions that create the atmosphere for how people work. Research shows corporate culture is the most important factor for driving innovation. An effective culture stems from understanding individuals and leadership relating goals in a way employees can internalize. It also requires promoting diverse thinking and shared knowledge to create collaborative cohesion that propels culture positively. Maintaining culture requires reinforcement at all employee lifecycle stages from hiring to retention.
Adaptive leadership toolkit
The document introduces the concept of adaptive leadership and provides tools to help identify and develop adaptive leadership skills. It discusses key fundamentals of an adaptive leadership approach including knowledge of the organization, willingness to project into the future, breaking down barriers, being disruptive, being agile, empowering others, and responding to changes. The tools include reflective questions, examples of adaptive leadership strategies, and a self-assessment to help leaders strengthen their adaptive skills.

COM 600 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric Overview
COM 600 Final Project Guidelines and Rubric
Overview
The final project for this course is the creation of a leadership communication analysis and leadership communication plan.
Can we learn from the past to prepare for the future? It is a common refrain in the business world. However, nowhere are the lessons of the past more helpful
than in the field of corporate communications. All of us have seen, at one time or another, a company failing to get out the proper message. Whether it is about a
product recall or an unforeseen corporate crisis, companies can be slow to react and their reactions are not always the most appropriate for the situation at
hand.
Being an effective leader is more than just making an impressive speech. The most important aspect of communication is not speaking, but listening. To be an
effective speaker, you have to know that your message is being received and is being received in the manner that is expected. This paradox is what leads to most
communications problems in the corporate world. In this course, you will explore examples of leadership communications and learn not only how they do or do
not effectively reach their audiences, but the impact leadership communications can have on an organization. This experience will expose you to appropriate
ways of communicating as a leader and proper strategies and approaches to leadership.
For the summative assessment in this course, you will review an example of a leadership communication, discern how the plan could be improved in reaching
internal and external audiences, and determine its impact on the organization responsible for the communication. Then you will develop a leadership
communication plan designed to inform future leadership communications of the organization. This summative assessment will prepare you to create future
leadership communications and take advantage of future leadership opportunities.
The project is divided into three 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 Two, Four, and Six. The final product will be submitted in Module Nine.
In this assignment, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following course outcomes:
Evaluate the effectiveness of leadership communications of an organization for both internal and external audiences
Analyze the challenges and opportunities in creating a positive organizational culture for how they impact organizational growth
Develop strategies for developing future leadership communications directed to both internal and external audiences that are supported by systems
theory and best practices
Develop ethical frameworks for leadership for organizational decision-making regarding the development of leadership communications
Recommend improvements to leadership communications for guiding management on effectively delivering c ...

Organizational Foundations
As you strive to grow in your leadership skills and abilities, you will find that the context in which you work influences your motivation and areas of focus. In a similar vein, your commitment to developing professionally can contribute toward organizational effectiveness.
To that end, it is critical to recognize the importance of organizational culture and climate. In particular, through this week’s Learning Resources, you may consider several questions: How do an organization’s mission, vision, and values relate to its culture? What is the difference between culture and climate? Moreover, how are culture and climate manifested within the organization?
For this Discussion, you explore the culture and climate of your current organization or one with which you are familiar. You also consider decisions and day-to-day practices and the way they relate to the organization’s mission, vision, and values.
To prepare:
·
Review the information related to planning and decision making in health care organizations presented in the textbook,
Leadership Roles and Management Functions in Nursing: Theory and Application.
Consider how planning and decision making relate to an organization’s mission, vision, and values, as well as its culture and its climate.
·
Familiarize yourself with the mission, vision, and values of your organization or one with which you are familiar. Consider how the statements and actions of leaders and others within the organization support or demonstrate the organizational mission, vision, and values. In addition, note any apparent discrepancies between word and deed. Think about how this translates into expectations for direct service providers. Note any data or artifacts that seem to indicate whether behaviors within the organization are congruent with its mission, vision, and values.
·
Begin to examine and reflect on the culture and climate of the organization. How do culture and climate differ?
·
Why is it important for you, as a master’s-prepared nurse leader, to be cognizant of these matters?

A Guideline for Organizational Design.pdf
Organizational design is as much an art as it is a science. The process of creating a system in which people can work together to achieve common goals is highly complex and there is no one way to do it right.
In this article, we will explain what organizational design is, what drives organizational design, how to design an organization, and how an effective design can be measured in terms of organizational effectiveness.
Strategic management unit iv
The document discusses strategic management and strategy implementation. It covers key topics such as the strategic management process, organizational structure, resource allocation, strategic control systems, matching structure and control to strategy, and techniques for evaluating strategy. The strategic management process involves strategic planning, implementation, and control. Effective strategy implementation requires designing organizational structure and control systems, allocating resources, managing politics and conflict, and periodic evaluation of strategy. Strategic control systems provide managers with information to ensure strategy and structure are aligned and the organization is achieving its objectives.

This document discusses corporate entrepreneurship as a strategic approach for improving internal innovation performance. It reviews literature on corporate entrepreneurship and the relationship between intrapreneurship and strategic models. The paper proposes a conceptual framework that focuses on internal innovation over external mergers and acquisitions. Key factors for enhancing internal innovation include developing systems to motivate innovative behavior, concentrating entrepreneurial ventures, and educating employees on corporate entrepreneurship. Implementing strategic approaches can help corporations innovate internally and improve growth and profits, while accepting failure as part of the innovation process.

This document summarizes a case study of an organizational culture assessment conducted at a manufacturer of packaging machines. The study aimed to investigate the current dominant organizational culture, level of innovative work behavior, and the preferred culture to enhance innovation. Employees perceived the current culture as a "market culture" focused on competitiveness and productivity. They reported being able to improve innovative work behavior, as shown by higher preferred scores. The preferred culture was a "family culture" emphasizing motivation and teamwork. While both family and market cultures can enhance innovation, only the market culture significantly correlated with innovative work behavior in this organization. A transition toward a more family culture is needed, but the market culture should still be preserved in the meantime.

1IntroductionThe objective of this study plan is to evaluate.docx

Introduction
The objective of this study plan is to evaluate the viability of our solution in relation to previously conducted test cases for companies operating in industries analogous to those of our own. In this section, we will concentrate on the manner in which these use cases measure the performance characteristics of various technical and behavioral qualities connected with an investment in technology made on behalf of a business. The viewpoints and data sources of stakeholders will be incorporated into our measuring system. This measurement framework will be utilized by us in order to assess and analyze the overall performance of our product. After the solution has been implemented, we will conduct post-implementation evaluations to determine how the solution affected the organization. The management of change will play a significant role in our overall research agenda. The plan will adhere to a certain format in providing the findings of the data analysis.
Measurement framework
In order to present an all-encompassing picture of performance, the measuring framework must to take into account the many stakeholder viewpoints as well as the various data sources. Perspectives from stakeholders may come from a variety of sources, such as the user community, project managers, or senior leadership. Customer feedback, system logs, and performance statistics are three examples of potential data sources (Thabane, 2009).
The purpose of the measurement framework is to supply stakeholders with viewpoints and data sources that may be utilized to evaluate the effectiveness of an investment in technology. The framework consists of four dimensions: behavioral characteristics, organizational aspects, user factors, and technological qualities (McShane, 2018). To evaluate how well the technology investment is working out, there is a separate set of performance indicators linked with each of the dimensions of the evaluation.
Indicators such as system uptime, reaction time, and throughput are examples of technical qualities. Indicators that make up behavioral qualities include things like user happiness, adoption rates, and the costs of training. Indicators like as return on investment (ROI) and total cost of ownership are included in the category of organizational variables (TCO). The metrics that make up user factors include things like user happiness, adoption rates, and training expenses (McShane, 2018).
The measuring framework draws its information from a variety of data sources, including organizational data, user data, performance data, and financial data. The return on investment (ROI) and total cost of ownership (TCO) of the technological investment may both be calculated using financial data (Jalal, 2017). The uptime, reaction time, and throughput of the system may all be evaluated based on the performance statistics. Data from users may be analyzed to determine factors such as user happiness, adoption rates, and the costs of training (Thabane,.

Project One: Executive SummaryProblem
With the restricted economic activity expected because of the COVID-19 outbreak, and the rise in inflation the revenue for the automobile engine and parts manufacturing industry has been adjusted to decline by 10.9% by the end of 2022 (Pantalon, 2022). Based on the current challenges the automotive industry faces, we must diversify our engine manufacturing and its operations to expand our revenue. In this presentation, I will be using qualitative and quantitative data to explain why I think our company should rapidly explore the ever-evolving and growing popularity of the electric car industry and develop electric motors. I will show the qualitative data which will focus on the industry reports of engine manufacturing inside the automotive industry. The quantitative data that I will provide will estimate the projections for future operations and provide fact-checked historical data on the automotive industry. Automotive Manufacturing Industry
After conducting extensive research into the current automotive industry status, where I focused on the performance and expectations for the industry's future, the 2021 measured revenue of the US car and automobile manufacturing was $75 billion. This is compared to previous years, such as 2020 $69 billion, and in 2019 and 2018 $92 billion (MarketLine 2021). Although we saw a rise from 2020 to 2021 in revenue the automobile manufacturing industry revenue will continue to not keep pace with previous years. As the domestic demand for new vehicles trends higher, three automotive hubs are expected to gain greater traction over the next few years. With that said the US automotive industry is heavily established in the Great Lakes region. This region represents just over 36% of the automobile manufacturers in the US. Some of the most successful automobile making are located here which include the Ford Motor Company, General Motors, and Fiat Chrysler. All these manufacturers are in Michigan which makes up 15% of all automobile manufacturing revenue in the US. With that said there are 2 more regions where automobile manufacturers operate that make up 50% of all us manufacturers' locations. The Regions are the West Region, making up 25.4% of the industry locations, and the Southeast Region, making up 24.6% of the industry locations. After conducting research, the consumer's current mindset is shifting towards a “greener” option for the automobile. This option would have a smaller carbon footprint, providing an increase in producing vehicles that are more environmentally friendly. As a result of this new stance on a “greener” option by the consumer the hybrid and the electric car are gaining popularity and are expected to multiply over the next five years (MarketLine 2018). “In 2025 the North American hybri.

Management of Care
Management of care involves organizing, prioritizing, maintaining strict patient confidentiality, providing patient with efficient care, education to patient and families, risk stratification, coordination of care transition and medication management. Patient care management is provided to client by nurses and other health care professionals “Management of the critically injured patient is optimized by a coordinated team effort in an organized trauma system that allow for rapid assessment and initiation of life- preserving therapies. (Cantrell, E., & Doucet, J. 2018). Effective patient care management can impact patient heath more positively, when all healthcare professionals work together to provide quality care in promoting patient centered care. Adequate patient care can prevent readmission or admission, also can reduce distress, total cost of care, improve self-management, disease control and patient overall health.
Patient care is important to patient because its ensure that patient receive the needed possible care they deserve when in the hospital and out of the hospital, patient will feel their demand is understood and listened to if they health needs are met and understood by professionals that know how to manage their health care needs, health care management team member work together to ensure patient safety through effective communication and collaboration, advocating for patient by connecting patient to community and social services resources that will promote their health care needs can be beneficial to patient, environmental and home risk assessment, and effective facilitation of communication between members of the healthcare team.
Nurses play a role in managing a patient health, roles such as: Critical thinking skills, in this case the nurse can recognize any shift in patient health status which plays a significant role in decision making and patient centered care. Time management: delegation, prioritization such as knowing what to do first, what is important, and knowing what task is more important for the patient at a particular time. Patient education is also one of the many role’s nurses do to educate patient on what to expect during a procedure, or during recovery, also teachings on complications or adverse effects of a medication. Clinical reasoning and judgement which will promote quality of health through patient centered care that addresses patient specific health care needs. Holman, H. C., Williams, “et al”. (2019).

Part One
The development of essential attitudes and abilities that help determine a person's susceptibility to psychological discomfort occurs throughout adolescence's formative years. This particular research aimed to investigate the relationship between problem-solving-oriented and cognitive-behavioral techniques for emotion regulation and levels of psychological discomfort (Speyer etal.,2021).
Notably, the issue of violence among adolescents is increasingly recognized as a severe problem in terms of public health. However, little research has investigated the importance of techniques to control cognitive emotion in teenagers, despite the increased interest in psychographic risk factors for violent conduct. The primary focus of this study will be to investigate the frequency of violent behaviors shown by adolescents and to determine the nature of the connection that exists between specific coping mechanisms for regulating cognition and emotion and various manifestations of aggressive behavior. Using confidential, self-reporting questionnaires, the research will conduct a cross-sectional survey of 3,315 students in grades 7 to 10 to investigate methods by which young adolescents may manage their cognitive processes, emotions, and actions connected to violence. The participants will be notified about the survey, but their personal information will not be public under any circumstances since this would violate ethical standards.
The influence of a father on his children might also vary depending on the gender and age of the kid. For boys, parental psychological distress is related to higher internalizing and externalizing issues throughout early adolescence. This finding lends credence to the notion that this stage of development may be especially significant in father-son exchanges. On the other hand, there is a correlation between maternal and paternal psychological discomfort in early infancy and increased levels of internalizing and externalizing difficulties in females (Speyer et al.,2021). Growing up with a father who struggles with mental illness may make girls more reserved, reducing the possibility that they would acquire issues that are manifested outside their bodies. This is one of the possible explanations.
Part Two
The whole of this project shall be guided by the research questions below: (what is the prevalence of adolescent violent behaviors? what is the relationship between specific strategies to regulate cognitive emotion and forms of violent behavior?)
To help operationalize the variables, a logistic regression model will be used to determine the nature of the connection between specific violent actions .

Your introduction should be typed here. It should be at least four sentences and include a thesis statement that introduces all the key points of the paper. Please note that you should follow all APA writing rules within your essay. This means avoid first and second person, do not use contractions, and use citations throughout your paper. The final sentence in your introduction must be a strong thesis statement that introduces every key topic that will be introduced in the paper. Remember that a thesis should be one sentence. Here is an example: In the pages to follow, West Chester Private School (WCPS) will be discussed in the context of open systems, organizational culture, the decision to close and the closure process, the impact of technology and innovation on stakeholders, administration closure options, the plans for future direction of WCPS, along with the four functions of management.
External Environment and Open Systems
There are certain ways in which organizations interact with their external environment (as open systems). These ways rely on the Systems Approach to Management Theory, which perceives an organization as an open system that consists of interdependent and interrelated parts interacting as sub-systems (Jackson, 2017). Generally, organizations rely on the exchange of resources and information with their environments. More so, they cannot hold complete control over their behavior and actions, which are significantly impacted by external forces. For example, an organization may be impacted by various environmental conditions such as government regulations, client demands, and raw material availability. As an open system, an organization can interact with the external environment in the context of inputs, transformations, and outputs. Inputs refer to both human and non-human resources like materials, energy, and information. Transformations refer to the conversion of inputs into outputs. For example, a school can transform a student into an educated individual. Finally, outputs refer to what an organization is giving to the environment.
Internal Environment and Organizational Culture
At the time of the closure, the effectiveness of West Chester Private School (WCPS) as an open system was inadequate. One important factor that impacts the effectiveness of an open system is feedback. Feedback refers to the information that an open system receives from the external environment, which can be used to maintain a system at optimal working conditions or a steady state (Jung & Vakharia, 2019). In the case of WCPS, feedback could be received from parents, teachers, and students. At the time of the closure, none of these stakeholders was consulted. Instead, WCPS made a unilateral decision to close down two campuses without considering the input of parents, te.

Toxoplasmosis and Effects on Abortion, And Fetal Abnormalities
Abstract
The placenta is an immune-privileged organ that may tolerate antigen exposure without eliciting a strong inflammatory response that could result in an abortion. After that, the pregnancy can progress normally. Th1 answers, characterized by interferon-, are essential for suppressing intracellular infections. Therefore, the maternal immune system finds a catch-22 when intracellular parasites invade the placenta. The pro-inflammatory response required to eradicate the virus carries the danger of causing an abortion. Toxoplasma is a potent parasite that causes lifetime infections and is a leading cause of abortions in people and animals. This paper speculates that the pregnancy outcome may be affected by the Toxoplasma strain and the effectors of the parasite, both of which can modify the signaling pathways of the host cell.
Introduction
Fetuses infected with the protozoan parasite Toxoplasma gondii can develop a disorder known as toxoplasmosis, sometimes called congenital toxoplasmosis. This disease is transmitted from mother to child in the womb. A miscarriage or a stillbirth might happen as a result. A child with this illness may also have significant and progressively deteriorating difficulties in their vision, hearing, motor skills, cognitive ability, and other areas of development. The parasite Toxoplasma gondii is blamed for many pregnancies ending in miscarriage (Arranz-Solís et al., 2021). Most abortions happen in the first trimester of pregnancy or during the early stages of acute sickness. This research aimed to determine if women who had an abortion were more likely to be infected with toxoplasmosis.
To make matters worse, the toxoplasmosis-causing Toxoplasma gondii is an obligate intracellular pathogen that infects nearly every animal species with a thermoregulatory system. Transferring Toxoplasma from one host to another requires the development of tissue cysts that are infectious when ingested. This means the parasite is incentivized to ensure that the host organism lives during the infection. The parasite does this by stimulating an immune response powerful enough to limit parasite reproduction. Toxoplasma, on the other hand, uses a unique set of effectors to evade the immune response and ensure that the parasite population does not decrease to zero.
Results
Type II strains are the most common cause of infection in both animal and human hosts. However, all four clonal lineages of Toxoplasma may be found throughout Europe and North America. It has been established, however, that the bulk of the South American isolates identified is genetically distinct from the strains seen in North America and Europe. Certain sorts of isolates have been labeled as atypical strains. Birth abnormalities apart, type II strains are the most common in Europe and North America, where the great majority of .

The Frivolity of Evil
Theodore Dalrymple
When prisoners are released from prison, they often say that they have paid their debt to
society. This is absurd, of course: crime is not a matter of double-entry bookkeeping. You
cannot pay a debt by having caused even greater expense, nor can you pay in advance for
a bank robbery by offering to serve a prison sentence before you commit it. Perhaps, meta-
phorically speaking, the slate is wiped clean once a prisoner is released from prison, but
the debt is not paid off.
It would be just as absurd for me to say, on my imminent retirement after 14 years of
my hospital and prison work, that I have paid my debt to society. I had the choice to do
something more pleasing if I had wished, and I was paid, if not munificently, at least ade-
quately. I chose the disagreeable neighborhood in which I practiced because, medically
speaking, the poor are more interesting, at least to me, than the rich: their pathology is
more florid, their need for attention greater. Their dilemmas, if cruder, seem to me more
compelling, nearer to the fundamentals of human existence. No doubt I also felt my ser-
vices would be more valuable there: in other words, that I had some kind of duty to per-
form. Perhaps for that reason, like the prisoner on his release, I feel I have paid my debt to
society. Certainly, the work has taken a toll on me, and it is time to do something else.
Someone else can do battle with the metastasizing social pathology of Great Britain, while
I lead a life aesthetically more pleasing to me.
My work has caused me to become perhaps unhealthily preoccupied with the problem
of evil. Why do people commit evil? What conditions allow it to flourish? How is it best pre-
vented and, when necessary, suppressed? Each time I listen to a patient recounting the
cruelty to which he or she has been subjected, or has committed (and I have listened to
several such patients every day for 14 years), these questions revolve endlessly in my mind.
No doubt my previous experiences fostered my preoccupation with this problem. My
mother was a refugee from Nazi Germany, and though she spoke very little of her life be-
fore she came to Britain, the mere fact that there was much of which she did not speak
gave evil a ghostly presence in our household.

156 AN INTRODUCTION TO MORAL PHILOSOPHY
Later, I spent several years touring the world, often in places where atrocity had re-
cently been, or still was being, committed. In Central America, I witnessed civil war fought
between guerrilla groups intent on imposing totalitarian tyranny on their societies, opposed
by armies that didn’t scruple to resort to massacre. In Equatorial Guinea, the current dicta-
tor was the nephew and henchman of the last dictator, who had killed or drive.

ASSOCIATION, Defendants-Appellees
No. 84-5788
UNITED STATES COURT OF APPEALS FOR THE NINTH CIRCUIT
771 F.2d 1244; 1985 U.S. App. LEXIS 23077; 120 L.R.R.M. 2520; 103 Lab. Cas.
(CCH) P11,677
February 6, 1985, Argued and Submitted - Los Angeles, California
September 16, 1985, Decided
PRIOR HISTORY: [**1] Appeal from the United States District Court for the Southern District of California, D.C.
NO. CV-80-1810-N, Honorable Leland C. Nielsen, District Judge, Presiding.
CASE SUMMARY:
PROCEDURAL POSTURE: Plaintiff professional football player appealed from judgments of the United States
District Court for the Southern District of California entered in favor of defendant union on plaintiff's claim for breach
of the duty of fair representation and in favor of defendant attorneys on plaintiff's legal malpractice claim.
OVERVIEW: Plaintiff football player filed suit against defendant union for breach of the duty of fair representation,
alleging that defendant attorneys, who were staff counsel for defendant union, erroneously advised him to file the wrong
type of grievance and failed to rectify the error when there was an opportunity to do so. Plaintiff also claimed that
defendant attorneys committed malpractice. The trial court entered judgment for defendants. On appeal, the court
affirmed. The court found that defendant union did not act in an arbitrary, discriminatory, or bad faith manner and held
that mere negligence or an error in judgment was insufficient to impose liability for breach of the duty of fair
representation. The court affirmed the directed verdict in favor of defendant first attorney because a union attorney may
not be held liable in malpractice to an individual union member for acts performed as the union's agent in the collective
bargaining process. The court affirmed the summary judgment entered in favor of defendant second attorney. The trial
court lacked personal jurisdiction over him because his only contact with the forum state were phone calls and letters.
OUTCOME: The court affirmed the judgment in favor of defendant union because it did not breach its duty of fair
representation. The court affirmed the directed verdict in favor of defendant first attorney because he was not liable in
malpractice to plaintiff football player for acts he performed as the union's agent. The court affi.

1. When drug prices increase at a faster rate than inflation, the .docx
1. When drug prices increase at a faster rate than inflation, the groups of people that bear the burden of this increase are taxpayers and Medicare beneficiaries. Taxpayers are paying higher taxes as a result of increased government spending, and Medicare beneficiaries cannot keep up with the price of their prescriptions. When it comes to the factors in making a decision about increasing drug prices, I believe Big Pharma companies should act in a socially responsible manner, meaning they should base their decisions not solely on profit, and not solely on healthcare. There should be a balance, and new policies would be beneficial to help maintain that balance.
2. Lower-level employees have the responsibility to provide accurate information to management so that they can make the most informed decision. Lower-level employees also have the responsibility to not purposefully make material mistakes or purposefully not correct a known mistake.
3. Increased government spending will increase taxes for taxpayers and decrease available spending for other worthy issues. Taxpayers will essentially pay more in taxes and therefore have less income available. With drug prices rising faster than inflation, this will cause a widening gap between annual income and costs. Also, private health insurance costs will increase premiums and out of pocket costs for members. The stakeholders most directly impacted are the senior citizens that are dependent on their medication and can’t afford it or any other out of pocket costs because of the already wide gap between their income and expenses. I believe the government itself can be seen as a stakeholder as well because as they continue to increase Medicare funding, their deficit increases, causing them to take action to allocate resources effectively.
4. If the increase in price of existing drugs is preventing those who need those drugs from obtaining them, then to me it is hard to justify the increase based on R&D. There will always be a trade-off between affordable drugs and how quickly we can get new drugs. The government must devise a policy that improves Big Pharma companies’ incentive for affordability
and innovation.
5. Explain what you think each of the following statements means in the context of moral development.
. How far are you willing to go to do the right thing?
1. Stage 6 of moral development is about universal “self-chosen” ethical principles. This stage is about following your conscience even if it violates the law. In thinking of moral development, as time passes, one’s level of ethical reasoning advances and some issues may spark moral outrage that force a response.
. How much are you willing to give up to do what you believe is right?
1. This statement relates to moral development and how sometimes doing the right thing can have negative consequences. For example, an employee may notice a purposeful mistake by a manager. Let’s assume the employee is certain they will receiv.

It proposes a study using surveys and journaling to identify issues for employees and design interventions to improve work-life balance and performance.
1. How did the case study impact your thoughts about your own fina.docx
1. How did the case study impact your thoughts about your own finances?
2. What were your thoughts and observations as you created your own balance sheet?
3. How might the balance sheet help you in future financial planning?
4. How close to reality do you think your estimated personal cash flow statement will be if you track your actual income and expenses for a month?
1. It gave me the desire to track my finances more closely and objectively. I liked how we can determine our net worth through some simple calculations and our inflows and outflows per month. Generally, I rely on simple finance apps like
Mint to track my finances. Currently, I do not create monthly budgets, but I now believe such action could be helpful.
2. I know that I have more assets than I am counting in the excel sheet. Therefore, my net worth is potentially higher. I also have a variety of streaming platforms.
I would benefit from switching from one platform to another month by month to save money. Streaming platforms are not a significant expense. Currently, my most considerable expense is transportation. Since gas prices are falling, this will help increase my surplus.
3. Accounting is math: it either works or doesn’t. Each can be traced from its inception (a sale, an expense, a money transfer) to the line on the financial statement. Since I don’t have much experience with financials, I try to seek out a mentor who is a family member. A balance sheet will ensure that I am not spending foolishly and ensure I am making appropriate purchases within the limits I set for myself. Proper planning will ensure I maximize my net worth.
4. It is important to consider cash flow when planning for the future
. It is important to save money every month in order to be able to make better financial decisions in the future. I hope to use some investing approaches for beginners to purchase funds without getting into debt. Most people underestimate how much they truly spend in a month. Therefore, I am underestimating how much I spend as well. I eat out quite a bit with friends and family, so my restaurant bill for the holidays might be higher than anticipated.

THE BIOGRAPHY OF LANGSTON HUGHES
2
On February 1, 1901, James Mercer Langston Hughes was born. He was born in
Joplin, Missouri, to James and Caroline Hughes, into a family of enslaved people and
enslavers (Leach, 2004). His father departed from the family, later divorcing their family,
forcing Langston's mother to move to Lawrence, Kansas, with his maternal grandmother. It
was from the latter that Langston learned about African American traditions, installing an
enormous sense of pride into the young man (Hughes et al., 2001). This greatly influenced his
writing, as evidenced by poems such as Mother to Son. He would then go on to join
Columbia University to study engineering, where he would write poetry for the Columbia
Daily Spectator. As a result of racial discrimination, he finally left the school and resided in
Harlem, where he was engulfed by the vibrant feeling of life (Leach, 2004).
Langston began cruising as a crewman aboard the S.S. Malone in 1923, after doing a
few odd jobs. He subsequently took his first white-collar job as Carter G. Woodson's assistant
at the Association for the Study of African American Life and History, a historian. He'd then
leave his work since it didn't enable him to write. He would later work as a busboy. He got
his big writing break when he met Vachel Lindsay, a famous poet of the time, with whom
Langston shared his poetry (Leach, 2004). Lindsay was heavily impressed and helped
Langston reach the big stage. Langston then went on to earn a Bachelor of Arts degree from
Lincoln University.
Langston began his literary career in 1921 by publishing The Crisis in the National
Association for the Advancement of Colored People magazine (Leach, 2004). The poem
Mother to Son was in this book and would go on to get much acclaim. He would go on to
release The Weary Blues along with other novels, short stories, and poems (Hughes et al.,
2001). He participated heavily in the Harlem Renaissance. Langston would pass away on
May 22, 1967, from surgery complications while being treated for prostate cancer.

Well, son, I’ll tell you:
Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair.
It’s had tacks in it,
And splinters,
And boards torn up,
And places with no carpet on the floor—
Bare.
But all the time
I’se been a-climbin’ on,
And reachin’ landin’s,
And turnin’ corners,
And sometimes goin’ in the dark
Where there ain’t been no light.
So boy, don’t you turn back.
Don’t you set down on the steps
’Cause you finds it’s kinder hard.
Don’t you fall now—
For I’se still goin’, honey,
I’se still climbin’,
And life for me ain’t been no crystal stair.

Motor Vehicle Safety Defects and Recall System: An Empirical Study in Saudi Arabia
2- Research Summary
Summarize the aims, significance and expected outcomes of your proposed research (max. 250 words).
It is to set the mechanism for recalling vehicles with manufacturing defects that affect in
one way or another the safety of vehicles and their users, and this is done by linking a
unified system in which the defective vehicle data is added and called in the system to
the maintenance centers of the concerned vehicle agencies. Workmanship defects are
classified as: (1) Basic defects, which are considered to have a serious and direct impact
on the safety of the vehicle and its users, and the inspection process cannot be passed
until after the defect is fixed. (2) Warning defects, which are considered a defect in the
product, but the effect of the defect does not threaten the safety of the vehicle and its
users pass the examination process and the defect is added as a warning only.
This research proposal aims to find the most effective way to reach every defected
vehicle and the effective way to deal with the vehicle owner to do the necessary changes
especially if it's related to safety in a systematic way. The purpose of the project is to
develop a new business model that was never used everywhere in the world and Saudi
Arabia will take the lead to publish this model to the rest of the world. Ensuring that the
practice will be used is the most effective practise as enabling to force the defected car
owner to have their vehicles fixed and the defected was solved.
