Case Study Scenario Part 3IntroductionThis media piece exp.docx
Case Study Scenario Part 3
Introduction
This media piece explains four ethical theories in order to prepare you for the Unit 3 assignment,
Case Study Resolution
. This media piece also includes parts 1 and 2 of the case study videos for your review.
Part 3
Deontology
The ethical position to do what is right out of duty or obligation. It is often called rule-based ethics.
Deontology has been described as "absolutist," "universal," and "impersonal" (Kant, 1785/1959). It prioritizes absolute obligations over consequences. In this moral framework, ethical decision making is the rational act of applying universal principles to all situations irrespective of specific relations, contexts, or consequences. This reflects Immanuel Kant's conviction that ethical decisions cannot vary or be influenced by special circumstances or relationships. Rather, a decision is "moral" only if a rational person believes the act resulting from the decision should be universally followed in all situations. For Kant, respect for the worth of all persons was one such universal principle. A course of action that results in a person being used simply as a means for others' gains would ethically unacceptable.
With respect to deception in research, from a deontological perspective, since we would not believe it moral to intentionally deceive individuals in some other context, neither potential benefits to society nor the effectiveness of participant debriefing for a particular deception study can morally justify intentionally deceiving persons about the purpose or nature of a research study. Further, deception in research would not be ethically permissible since intentionally disguising the nature of the study for the goals of research violates the moral obligation to respect each participant's intrinsic worth by undermining individuals' right to make rational and autonomous decisions regarding participation (Fisher & Fyrberg, 1994).
Utilitarianism
The ethical position depends on the consequences of the action with the goal being producing the most good.
Utilitarian theory prioritizes the consequences (or utility) of an act over the application of universal principles (Mill, 1861/1957). From this perspective, an ethical decision is situation specific and must be governed by a risk-benefit calculus that determines which act will produce the greatest possible balance of good over bad consequences. An "act utilitarian" makes an ethical decision by evaluating the consequences of an act for a given situation. A "rule utilitarian" makes an ethical decision by evaluating whether following a general rule in all similar situation would create the greater good. Like deontology, utilitarianism is impersonal: It does not take into account interpersonal and relational features of ethical responsibility. From this perspective, psychologists' obligations to those with whom they work can be superseded by an action that would produce a greater good for others (Fisher, 1999).

CASE STUDY 6
CHEVRON’S INFRASTRUCTURE
EVOLUTION
Chevron Corporation (www.chevron.com) is one of the world’s leading
energy companies. Chevron’s headquarters are in San Ramon, California.
The company has more than 62,000 employees and produces more than
700,000 barrels of oil per day. It has 19,500 retail sites in 84 countries. In
2012, Chevron was number three on the Fortune 500 list and had more than
$244 billion in revenue in 2011 [STAT12].
IT infrastructure is very important to Chevron and to better support all
facets of its global operations, the company is always focused on improving
its infrastructure [GALL12]. Chevron faces new challenges from increased
global demand for its traditional hydrocarbon products and the need to
develop IT support for new value chains for liquid natural gas (LNG) and the
extraction of gas and oil from shale. Huge investments are being made
around the world, particularly in Australia and Angola on massive projects of
unprecedented scale. Modeling and analytics are more important than ever
to help Chevron exploit deep water drilling and hydrocarbon extraction in
areas with challenging geographies. For example, advanced seismic imaging
tools are used by Chevron to reveal possible oil or natural gas reservoirs
beneath the earth’s surface. Chevron’s proprietary seismic imaging
http://www.chevron.com/
C6-2
technology contributed to it achieving a 69% discovery rate in
2011[CHEV12].
Supervisory Control and Data Acquisition (SCADA)
Systems
Chevron refineries are continually collecting data from sensors spread
throughout the facilities to maintain safe operations and to alert operators to
potential safety issues before they ever become safety issues. Data from the
sensors is also used to optimize the way the refineries work and to identify
opportunities of greater efficiency. IT controls 60,000 valves at Chevron’s
Pascagoula, Mississippi refinery; the efficiency and safety of its end-to-end
operations are dependent on advanced sensors, supervisory control and data
acquisition (SCADA) systems, and other digital industrial control systems
[GALL12].
SCADA systems are typically centralized systems that monitor and
control entire sites and/or complexes of system.

CASE STUDY RUBRIC MICROBIOLOGY For the Case Study assig.docx
CASE STUDY RUBRIC MICROBIOLOGY
For the Case Study assignment the current pathogen selections may be requested by sending
an email to your instructor!
Assigned Case Study Problem:
You will create a case study for a microbial infection selected from the current pathogen list. Your case
study will be assembled using a detailed rubric (see below). Upon completion, you will submit your
case study to the Blackboard gradebook in Unit 5 and to SafeAssign.
How to create a case study
The case studies are meant to be an enjoyable, interesting, and informative assignment. This is your
chance to show that you understand the key teaching points about a microbe and to communicate
these points in a written format.
What information belongs in my case study?
Have at least 3-4 key referenced points in each of the five areas shown in the Case Study Information
Chart (see below). The left-hand heading in the chart suggests the type of information requested for the
pathogen. Outlines can be in whatever form you prefer (bullets/charts/outlines/diagrams or a mix). Be
sure to include two discussion questions (and provide complete answers) that you can incorporate
into your case study (place them at the end of your write-up). These questions should help connect your
case to other material in the course. For example, what other microbes have an A-B toxin? What other
viruses are transmitted by fecal-oral spread?
How much information should I provide for my case study?
For the Case Study, you are asked to provide at least the information requested in the chart below. The
boxed questions are suggestions for the minimum amount of information within each category. The
more detailed the information, the better the study. You may consult your textbook, CDC, WHO, Access
Medicine, Google Scholar, NCBI, WebMD, etc. to find the information. For example, if you perform a
Google search using the name of the pathogen and the word ‘vaccine’, you will find information on
current vaccines (if any), those in clinical trials, vaccines used only in animals, etc.
Case Study Information Chart
Typical Case What does a typical case look like? Use the standard format for a
patient presentation with chief complaint (CC), history of present illness
(HPI), key physical exam details (PE), lab findings, signature signs, and
any other important findings.
Description of the infectious
agent
If it is a bacterium, how is it classified? If it is a virus, what kind of
nucleic acid does it have? Does it target specific cellular types
(tropism)? Does it form a spore? Is it aerobic? Is it intracellular? Can it
only be grown in a specific type of media? How is it distinguished from
other members of the species? Does the pathogen have a significant
history with humans or animals?
Epidemiology What do you feel are the most important points about the
epidemiology of the disease? Incidence? Portal of entry? Source? Is it a
normal microb.

In 2007 San Francisco began its Healthy San Francisco Plan designed to provide health care for all San Francisco citizens. In 2007, it was estimated that San Francisco had 82,000 uninsured citizens. Under the plan, all uninsured citizens residing in San Francisco can seek care at the city's public and private clinics and hospitals. The basic coverage includes lab work, x-rays, surgery, and preventative care. The city plans to pay for this $203 million coverage by rerouting the $104 million the city currently spends treating the uninsured in the emergency rooms, mandating business contributions, and requiring income-adjusted enrollment fees. The plan requires all businesses with more than 20 employees to contribute a percentage toward the plan. Many business owners consider this a burden and warn they will not stay in the city. The Mayor sees universal health access a moral obligation for the city.
Take one of the following positions.
San Francisco has an obligation to provide its citizens with health access.-OR-
San Francisco does not have an obligation to provide its citizens with health access.
Discuss the following in your assignment
:
What is the government's role in regulating healthy and unhealthy behavior?
Has the balance between personal freedom and the government's responsibility to provide health and welfare of its citizens been eroded? Why or why not?

Case Study Scenario Part 3
Introduction
This media piece explains four ethical theories in order to prepare you for the Unit 3 assignment,
Case Study Resolution
. This media piece also includes parts 1 and 2 of the case study videos for your review.
Part 3
Deontology
The ethical position to do what is right out of duty or obligation. It is often called rule-based ethics.
Deontology has been described as "absolutist," "universal," and "impersonal" (Kant, 1785/1959). It prioritizes absolute obligations over consequences. In this moral framework, ethical decision making is the rational act of applying universal principles to all situations irrespective of specific relations, contexts, or consequences. This reflects Immanuel Kant's conviction that ethical decisions cannot vary or be influenced by special circumstances or relationships. Rather, a decision is "moral" only if a rational person believes the act resulting from the decision should be universally followed in all situations. For Kant, respect for the worth of all persons was one such universal principle. A course of action that results in a person being used simply as a means for others' gains would ethically unacceptable.
With respect to deception in research, from a deontological perspective, since we would not believe it moral to intentionally deceive individuals in some other context, neither potential benefits to society nor the effectiveness of participant debriefing for a particular deception study can morally justify intentionally deceiving persons about the purpose or nature of a research study. Further, deception in research would not be ethically permissible since intentionally disguising the nature of the study for the goals of research violates the moral obligation to respect each participant's intrinsic worth by undermining individuals' right to make rational and autonomous decisions regarding participation (Fisher & Fyrberg, 1994).
Utilitarianism
The ethical position depends on the consequences of the action with the goal being producing the most good.
Utilitarian theory prioritizes the consequences (or utility) of an act over the application of universal principles (Mill, 1861/1957). From this perspective, an ethical decision is situation specific and must be governed by a risk-benefit calculus that determines which act will produce the greatest possible balance of good over bad consequences. An "act utilitarian" makes an ethical decision by evaluating the consequences of an act for a given situation. A "rule utilitarian" makes an ethical decision by evaluating whether following a general rule in all similar situation would create the greater good. Like deontology, utilitarianism is impersonal: It does not take into account interpersonal and relational features of ethical responsibility. From this perspective, psychologists' obligations to those with whom they work can be superseded by an action that would produce a greater good for others (Fisher, 1999).

CASE STUDY RUBRIC MICROBIOLOGY For the Case Study assig.docx
CASE STUDY RUBRIC MICROBIOLOGY
For the Case Study assignment the current pathogen selections may be requested by sending
an email to your instructor!
Assigned Case Study Problem:
You will create a case study for a microbial infection selected from the current pathogen list. Your case
study will be assembled using a detailed rubric (see below). Upon completion, you will submit your
case study to the Blackboard gradebook in Unit 5 and to SafeAssign.
How to create a case study
The case studies are meant to be an enjoyable, interesting, and informative assignment. This is your
chance to show that you understand the key teaching points about a microbe and to communicate
these points in a written format.
What information belongs in my case study?
Have at least 3-4 key referenced points in each of the five areas shown in the Case Study Information
Chart (see below). The left-hand heading in the chart suggests the type of information requested for the
pathogen. Outlines can be in whatever form you prefer (bullets/charts/outlines/diagrams or a mix). Be
sure to include two discussion questions (and provide complete answers) that you can incorporate
into your case study (place them at the end of your write-up). These questions should help connect your
case to other material in the course. For example, what other microbes have an A-B toxin? What other
viruses are transmitted by fecal-oral spread?
How much information should I provide for my case study?
For the Case Study, you are asked to provide at least the information requested in the chart below. The
boxed questions are suggestions for the minimum amount of information within each category. The
more detailed the information, the better the study. You may consult your textbook, CDC, WHO, Access
Medicine, Google Scholar, NCBI, WebMD, etc. to find the information. For example, if you perform a
Google search using the name of the pathogen and the word ‘vaccine’, you will find information on
current vaccines (if any), those in clinical trials, vaccines used only in animals, etc.
Case Study Information Chart
Typical Case What does a typical case look like? Use the standard format for a
patient presentation with chief complaint (CC), history of present illness
(HPI), key physical exam details (PE), lab findings, signature signs, and
any other important findings.
Description of the infectious
agent
If it is a bacterium, how is it classified? If it is a virus, what kind of
nucleic acid does it have? Does it target specific cellular types
(tropism)? Does it form a spore? Is it aerobic? Is it intracellular? Can it
only be grown in a specific type of media? How is it distinguished from
other members of the species? Does the pathogen have a significant
history with humans or animals?
Epidemiology What do you feel are the most important points about the
epidemiology of the disease? Incidence? Portal of entry? Source? Is it a
normal microb.

In 2007 San Francisco began its Healthy San Francisco Plan designed to provide health care for all San Francisco citizens. In 2007, it was estimated that San Francisco had 82,000 uninsured citizens. Under the plan, all uninsured citizens residing in San Francisco can seek care at the city's public and private clinics and hospitals. The basic coverage includes lab work, x-rays, surgery, and preventative care. The city plans to pay for this $203 million coverage by rerouting the $104 million the city currently spends treating the uninsured in the emergency rooms, mandating business contributions, and requiring income-adjusted enrollment fees. The plan requires all businesses with more than 20 employees to contribute a percentage toward the plan. Many business owners consider this a burden and warn they will not stay in the city. The Mayor sees universal health access a moral obligation for the city.
Take one of the following positions.
San Francisco has an obligation to provide its citizens with health access.-OR-
San Francisco does not have an obligation to provide its citizens with health access.
Discuss the following in your assignment
:
What is the government's role in regulating healthy and unhealthy behavior?
Has the balance between personal freedom and the government's responsibility to provide health and welfare of its citizens been eroded? Why or why not?

MINI CASE
Delivering Business Value with IT at Hefty Hardware2
"IT is a pain in the neck," groused cheryl O'Shea, VP of retail marketing, as she
slipped into a seat at the table in the Hefty Hardware executive dining room, next to her colleagues. “It’s all technical mumbo-jumbo when they talk to you and I still don’t know if they have any idea about what we’re trying to accomplish with our Savvy Store program. I keep explaining that we have to improve the customer experience and that we need IT’s help to do this, but they keep talking about infrastructure and bandwidth and technical architecture, which is all their internal stuff and doesn’t relate to what we’re trying to do at all! They have so many processes and reviews that I’m not sure we’ll ever get this project off the ground unless we go outside the company.”"You have got that right", agreed Glen vogel, the COO. " I really like my IT account manager, Jenny Henderson. She sits in on all our strategy meetings and seems to really understand our business, but that’s about as far as it goes. By the time we get a project going, my staff are all complaining that the IT people don’t even know some of our basic business functions, like how our warehouses operate. It takes so long to deliver any sort of technology to the field, and when it doesn’t work the way we want it to, they just shrug and tell us to add it to the list for the next release! Are we really getting value for all of the millions that we pour into IT?”
“Well, I don’t think it’s as bad as you both seem to believe,” added Michelle Wright, the CFO. “My EA sings the praises of the help desk and the new ERP system we put in last y.

Case Study Project Part 2: Economic Development Analysis and Proposal Instructions
You will submit an Economic Development Analysis and Proposal Plan, consisting of 15-20 pages, not including the title page, abstract, or reference page. In order to complete this assignment, you must choose a specific locale that you want to use for your case study. You may wish to select the community in which you currently live or a hometown as the focus of this report. A case must be a “bounded system” with definable parameters (Stake, 1995). Thus, you must choose a locale that you can define and limit. For example, you should not use New York City. Its size is far beyond what you will be able to accomplish in this course. Likewise, you would not want to choose Huston, Idaho, as it is far too small to have a need for a cohesive economic development plan. In this assignment, you will target the specific situations found in an American city, town, or county. This assignment will require that you address the following six specific areas:
Locale
When choosing your locale, make sure that you will be able to find demographic and economic information. You will want to choose an area with which you are familiar or an area where there is obvious need. Attempt to pick a city or a town that is not extremely large (i.e., New York City, however, Staten Island could be a viable project). Choosing wisely will make your research more focused so that you can complete the research by the time the course has finished.
Economic Situation
You must detail the specific economic situation facing this location. For example, if you were to choose Flint, MI, you would have to discuss the impact of the auto industry moving away from the city and the subsequent economic and social conditions of the city. How has the economic shift impacted the city and how has the city responded in the last 30 years? Additionally, what initiatives.

Mary Post:
#2: To obtain the necessary transportation capabilities in a short timeframe, what type of software purchase option should myIoT pursue? Explain.
The software purchase option that myIoT, Inc. should pursue would be a SaaS application. This is an Internet based service where the software is accessed online and there is no need to have it installed on site. This is a less expensive option than purchasing software and licenses, and it allows access to the outside vendors. It is also cheaper than hosted software. Based on the cloud location, the setup time is faster, which is what myIoT needs for a two-month turnaround.
#3: What types of technology implementation challenges might myIoT face? How can these risks be minimized?
Application integration would pose a challenge. Since there is a short time-frame, ensuring all partners are “up and running” could be their biggest issue. There will need to be a training period for all that access the data. Should any of their vendors not have the same capabilities, this could throw off their entire operation. Also, due to the variety of systems organizing and sharing information might be a problem. MyIot would need to work with its supply chain partners and vendors to ensure they are all capable using the chosen TMS and begin to implement it right away. This will allow extra time to make changes and enforce training sessions.
Desmond Post
2. To obtain the necessary transportation capabilities in a short timeframe, what type of software purchase option should myIoT pursue? Explain.
My Iot should pursue a well designed TMS software system. This system specializes in planning the flow of materials across the supply chain. It's the core of routing, rating, and, executing shipments across multiple modes tracking, load tracing, and freight settlement. The capabilities and scope of TMS expands the software to a much more integrative system. It provides support for transportation strategic, tactical, and operational planning, as well as delivery execution, in transit visibility and performance evaluation. TMS also supports appointment scheduling, metrics monitoring, and freight bill auditing.
3. Whats types of technology implemenation challenges might my iot face? How can these risks be minized?
My Iot could potentially loose time in wages, delay of shipment, and possibly loose business with customers, but these risks could be minimized by implementing better planning, develop training within your team, create effective structure and monitor the technology program by following these simple steps below to correct system and human error as they occur:

Case Study Planning for GrowthKelly’s Sandwich Stop is one of t.docx
Case Study: Planning for Growth
Kelly’s Sandwich Stop
is one of the best-known and most loved sandwich concessions in town. In business for about five years, she sells sandwiches and other lunch items made from locally produced food from her mobile food trailer. Kelly’s passion and talent for creating reliably fresh, tasty lunch fare popular among a business clientele (largely employees and shoppers) has made her small enterprise a booming success.
In the last year, Kelly added a bicycle-towed concession that travels to different strategic locations in town, selling her popular sandwiches to customers who work beyond walking distance of
Kelly’s Sandwich
Stop
. She now has a total of four employees, all part-time, working both concessions. Because she caters to urban customers, her concessions operate on week days from 10 am to 2 pm. To promote word-of-mouth advertising, Kelly uses Facebook to publish her daily menus and the locations of the bicycle concession.
As a sole proprietor, Kelly has been pleased with her lunch business success. Now it’s time to get serious about the future of her business. In the short and medium term, she wants to see it grow into a potentially more lucrative enterprise, implementing a greater variety of food products and services, and increasing her competitive edge in the region. Ever the ardent entrepreneur, Kelly’s long-term dream is to develop her creative, health-conscious culinary skills and services into a wider clientele outside the region.
An opportunity has arisen to lease restaurant space about 10 miles away from her trailer concession location, close to a mall and the suburbs and nearer to her local food producers. Kelly has jumped at the chance. While she has hired professional business consultants to help her set up the space, design the menu, and implement the opening of the restaurant, she must also consider the short- and long-term financial, HR, and management needs of such an expansion. Kelly is particularly sensitive to her relationship to her customers, employees, and the community.

Purpose:
In this case the committee is looking to see how you can apply communication skills to obtain the maximum job performance of the employee in each of the short scenarios. After reading each short case, prepare answers to the questions for the upcoming search committee interview to review.
Outcomes:
The students will demonstrate understanding of the following outcomes:
· How to manage, organize, and lead employees;
· To identify the organizational theory related to increasing job performance to raise company effectiveness;
· How to communicate effectively to affect change or motivation; and
· Writing for persuasiveness.
Scenarios and Questions:
After reading each short case, prepare answers to the questions for the upcoming search committee interview to review.
1) “RLI Home Builds a Castle on Communication”
Since the outset the owner Ralph Lorean has prided himself on focusing the culture of the company on excellent customer service. Managers know that a culture like this would only work if the company’s employees enjoyed their work and the company. He wanted to build a company where every employee felt they owned the castle. Ralph believed that communication was essential to making an employee feel a part of the group, so he often said that he never wanted employees to “read about their company in the media and learn something new.”
Because RLI is international in scope it is possible that on any given day or time two thirds of its 2,000 employees are outside an office. To conquer the communication this problem imposes Ralph is surveying his managers to see if they think a new, but very expensive, “dashboard” intranet system would be worth the expenditure. The system would ensure optimal communication strategies allowing every employee remote access from wherever they are. Regardless, of location every employee can share information on the dashboard from their cell phone. However, it does not offer a “SKYPE” feature. Management has sent a short questionnaire to you asking the following questions:
A) How would the new tool influence job performance positively in RLI?
B) Could dependence on a program which does not permit access to verbal or face to face communications hinder job performance in a global setting? If so why?
C) If the dashboard was only presented in English would this be a factor in its intracompany success?
D) One of the biggest reasons suggested for purchasing the system is that it allows information to flow both from top down to bottom up. Do you see this as possible if the company is not structured in a similar way? If so why, if not why not?
2) Email Over All! Richard Burton is one of the production supervisors at Lighting R Us a branch of RLI. Richard supervises 25 employees and has been performing well in this same job for 5 years. Burton wants a promotion in the foreseeable future but feels it unlikely. Burton is always “on”. He has 24/7 email access, texts al.

Case Study on the Use of Information Technology to Improve Business
Processes in an Organization:
Collaboration Tools/Enterprise Social Media
Imagine that your boss requested a proposal on how collaboration can be improved in your organization. (If
you prefer not to use your current organization as an example, you can use a previous organization you
have worked or participated in, including volunteer organizations.) You have started learning about
enterprise social media and other technology-assisted collaboration tools and would like to consider how
these technology tools can improve and strengthen collaboration in your organization.
Consider the following aspects of organizational collaboration and technology that assists us with
collaboration in your proposal:
• What are the current, most common ways to collaborate in your organization?
• Does most of the collaboration occur in face-to-face situations or with the assistance of technology
(such as email, web meetings, discussion forums, document repositories, instant messaging/chats,
video calls, and enterprise social media)?
• What technology tools are available for collaboration in your organization and which of these
tools are commonly used?
• Can you envision how collaborative processes can be improved – both through process
improvement and through better use of technology?
• What changes in work processes will drive better collaboration and increased efficiencies for the
organization?
• Do you think existing collaborative technology tools you already have available in the
organization can play a significant part in improving collaboration? If so, explain how the tools
can help. If not, explain why you think the tools cannot help with improving collaboration.
• Are there additional technological collaboration tools your organization can invest in, that can be
part of the process to improve collaboration?
• If you could invest in only one additional technological collaboration tool, what would it be, and
what is the value you expect it to bring to your organization’s collaboration?
• What do you expect to be some of the challenges in introducing this new collaborative tool and
getting everyone to incorporate it into their work processes? How can you plan to address these
challenges?
Create your response as a proposal you will submit to your boss. Document the current collaborative
approaches in your organization. Provide a new strategy that will address current issues and aim to provide
improvement to organizational collaboration. Explain the potential risks as well as pros and cons of your
strategy.
Format your response as an APA paper and include a bibliography with references/sources you have consulated in preparing your proposal

Case study on Vulnerability and Marginalized Populations
How should public health professionals interact with families undergoing health crises?
How should public health professionals interact with the media in high profile cases?
How can understanding the experience of Louise Troh and her family help me become a better public health professional?
This week, instead of discussing a case study from your book, we are going to consider the experience of Louise Troh and her family. The goal is for you to work on your intellectual empathy give consideration to how you will interact with individuals who are vulnerable. Be sure to view the video news clips posted in this module for a sampling of the media coverage during the 2014 Ebola incident in Dallas.
Phase 1: Analyze Louise Troh's experience
In the first part of your discussion board, you will address several questions about the Louise Troh's memoir
My Spirit Took You In: The Romance that Sparked an Epidemic of Fear
. I’d like for each member of the team to
choose one question
to address.
Let your team know early in the week which question you will be answering.
1.
What characteristics of this family indicate that they are members of a vulnerable population?
2.
What stood out to you in Louise’s descriptions of Liberian culture?
3.
What stood out to you in Louise’s description of her experience as an immigrant adapting to a new culture?
4.
How did Louise’s employment and experience as a certified nurse’s aide impact her response to Mr. Duncan’s illness and hospitalization? Do you think she acted appropriately? Why or why not?
5.
Describe the role of the individual public health professionals who interacted with this family. In what ways did they do a good job? What could they have done better?
6.
Describe the response of the community (neighbors, church members, members of the Liberian community) to Mr. Duncan’s diagnosis of Ebola. Which responses were helpful? Which responses were harmful? What could the community have done better?
7.
Describe the response of the media. Was it appropriate, helpful, or harmful? Why? How did the media reports impact the public?
Phase 2: How will this case impact your practice as a public health professional?
In the second part of your discussion board, use your analysis to reflect on how you will practice as a public health professional. Respond to these prompts.
Each member of the team should respond to all four questions:
1.
Now that you have discussed the details of the case, engage your intellectual empathy. Which member of the surviving family did you identify with the most? Imagine that you are that person. Really take a few minutes to imagine what it would be like to be quarantined, how it would affect your work and personal life, what your grief would be like, and what it would be like to be treated with fear and bias by others.

Case Study on the White House (Trump Administration)The White Ho.docx
Case Study on the White House (Trump Administration)
The White House plays a crucial role in the political culture of the United States because it is the official residence and the working place for the sitting president of our nation. However, the term White House is often used with an expanded meaning which refers to the president and his advisors. They work with him at the White House, crafting new polices to help his administration govern the country. President Donald J. Trump is the current president of the United States, whose administration is in charge with responsibilities of improving the lives of American citizens based on campaign pledges he gives to the American people. However, to better understand the roles and influences of the White House in American political culture, it is important to analyze the organization of the White House under President Trump. This analysis looks at the White House from the perspective of leadership, human resource, culture, and the organizational learning environment. This will help us understand the organization’s structure of the White House and the impact of culture which helps implement the president’s agenda.
The Trump’s Administration comprises of more than 300 employees who plays different roles. This includes advisors to the president, key staffers, domestic workers, the cabinet and other influential political leaders who works with the president on a day to day basis (Carter, Ulrich, & Goldsmith, 2004). The White House officials help the president develop domestic and foreign policies that focus on making the nation better. Senior White House officials under President Donald Trump includes cabinet rank officials and other presidential advisors on different matters. Among some of the most notable positions in the White House includes the Chief of Staff, Press Secretary and president’s advisor, US Trade Representative, Director of the Office of Management and Budget, Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, and Director of National Intelligence. With more than 300 hundred employees, the White House is one of the largest public organizations in the country. It is a diverse environment comprising of people from different cultural backgrounds, races, and ethnicities working together to achieve a common objective for the president’s goals and ambitions. Therefore, it is important to understand the human relations approach used at the White House and how leadership creates an environment to promotes the general of wellbeing for each employee.
How Was Culture Developed Through the Process of “Shared Learning,” Struggle and Growth?
Organizational culture contributes positive social changes in society. First and foremost, good organizational culture can impart positive values in the organization and employees (Burnes, 2009). These values can guide the employees towards initiating positive influences in society that will lead to improved social standards (Medley, & Akan, 2008). With a great organ.

Case Study of Kimberly, Part One Kimberly is a 17-year-old f.docx
Case Study of Kimberly, Part One
Kimberly is a 17-year-old female brought in for an evaluation by her mother, Diana. Even before you meet them, you hear the commotion in the waiting room, which concludes with Kimberly calling Diana a "stupid fucking bitch" and kicking a chair across the room.
Once in your office, the contrast between them is striking. The family lives in one of the pricier suburbs, and Diana works as an advertising executive. She is successful and well regarded, as is her husband, Kimberly's father, who works in international banking. Diana says that he regrets not being present, but there was a sudden meeting in Barcelona that required his attention. Diana is well-dressed, poised, and soft-spoken.
Kimberly, on the other hand, is quite gaunt, surly, noticeably unwashed, and dressed in full anarchist punk regalia. You count 11 piercings, some quite large, involving her tongue, lower lip, both nostrils, one eyebrow, and both ears; there may be more hidden by her dramatically dyed and styled hair.
Diana gives the following account as Kimberly shreds a Styrofoam cup, dropping the small pieces on the carpet, sighing loudly, scowling, and mumbling, "Bullshit."
Diana notes that she and her husband have "bent over backwards" to accept Kimberly's "lifestyle choices" and her friends. Kimberly has not been appreciative, but they understand that adolescence is a difficult time. In the past few months, however, Kimberly has lost 25 pounds and has become verbally abusive. She also displays dramatic mood swings and is physically violent, and she is completely disengaged from school, family, and her old friends. She has also taken to hoarding strange objects, and Diana has noticed strange burns on Kimberly's arms.
Diana has concluded that Kimberly has developed an eating disorder and is perhaps engaging in self-mutilation. Diana fears for Kimberly's health and for the loss of educational opportunity that will occur if Kimberly continues nonparticipation in the expensive private school she attends. When you ask Kimberly her view on her mother's concerns, she says, "Whatever."
You take some initial background information. Kimberly has one sister, four years older, who attends an Ivy League school on the East coast. Her sister had "eating disorder issues" in her freshman year in college, but worked through them in therapy and is now doing well. Diana reports that Kimberly was without problems until last year, when she began hanging around "a rougher element." Kimberly and her friends often spent weekends in a cabin in an isolated rural area, and Diana initially discounted the dangers of these rougher companions, thinking, "How bad can they be if they are into nature?"
When questioned, Diana says that Kimberly has been hoarding all sorts of odd flasks and containers, "just junk," but Diana has not otherwise examined them because they smell bad. "They must be filthy; I wonder if she got them out of a dumpster." She also reports that Kimbe.

Issues-based Campaigns
Issues based messaging
Research from FleishmanHillard shows that two-thirds of U.S. consumers say they have often or sometimes stopped using certain products or services because the company’s response to an issue didn’t support their personal views.
Consumers will reward you for doing the right thing. And they will enthusiastically punish you for behaving otherwise.
Issues based messaging
There’s a link between a consumer’s passion for an issue and her expectation that a brand will do something meaningful to address it.
Racism, gender discrimination and unemployment, are the issues that rank as “extremely/very important” to the kinds of consumers who are most actively engaged with brands.
Issues based messaging
Will your core demographics abandon you for getting involved in controversial subjects? Probably not.
61 percent of those surveyed said that, even if they disagree with a company’s position on an issue of importance, they give that company credit for expressing its views.
If a company's customer base includes millennials, there’s an even higher expectation that it speak out (75 percent).
Issues based messaging
Words aren’t enough; consumers are watching actions.
The research found that 47 percent of engaged customers are less or not at all likely to purchase from companies whose business practices are inconsistent with their CSR promises.

Delivering Business Value with IT at Hefty Hardware2
"IT is a pain in the neck," groused cheryl O'Shea, VP of retail marketing, as she
slipped into a seat at the table in the Hefty Hardware executive dining room, next to her colleagues. “It’s all technical mumbo-jumbo when they talk to you and I still don’t know if they have any idea about what we’re trying to accomplish with our Savvy Store program. I keep explaining that we have to improve the customer experience and that we need IT’s help to do this, but they keep talking about infrastructure and bandwidth and technical architecture, which is all their internal stuff and doesn’t relate to what we’re trying to do at all! They have so many processes and reviews that I’m not sure we’ll ever get this project off the ground unless we go outside the company.”"You have got that right", agreed Glen vogel, the COO. " I really like my IT account manager, Jenny Henderson. She sits in on all our strategy meetings and seems to really understand our business, but that’s about as far as it goes. By the time we get a project going, my staff are all complaining that the IT people don’t even know some of our basic business functions, like how our warehouses operate. It takes so long to deliver any sort of technology to the field, and when it doesn’t work the way we want it to, they just shrug and tell us to add it to the list for the next release! Are we really getting value for all of the millions that we pour into IT?”

Case Study Project Part 2: Economic Development Analysis and Proposal Instructions
You will submit an Economic Development Analysis and Proposal Plan, consisting of 15-20 pages, not including the title page, abstract, or reference page. In order to complete this assignment, you must choose a specific locale that you want to use for your case study. You may wish to select the community in which you currently live or a hometown as the focus of this report. A case must be a “bounded system” with definable parameters (Stake, 1995). Thus, you must choose a locale that you can define and limit. For example, you should not use New York City. Its size is far beyond what you will be able to accomplish in this course. Likewise, you would not want to choose Huston, Idaho, as it is far too small to have a need for a cohesive economic development plan. In this assignment, you will target the specific situations found in an American city, town, or county. This assignment will require that you address the following six specific areas:
Locale
When choosing your locale, make sure that you will be able to find demographic and economic information. You will want to choose an area with which you are familiar or an area where there is obvious need. Attempt to pick a city or a town that is not extremely large (i.e., New York City, however, Staten Island could be a viable project). Choosing wisely will make your research more focused so that you can complete the research by the time the course has finished.
Economic Situation
You must detail the specific economic situation facing this location. For example, if you were to choose Flint, MI, you would have to discuss the impact of the auto industry moving away from the city and the subsequent economic and social conditions of the city. How has the economic shift impacted the city and how has the city responded in the last 30 years? Additionally, what initiatives.

Mary Post:
#2: To obtain the necessary transportation capabilities in a short timeframe, what type of software purchase option should myIoT pursue? Explain.
The software purchase option that myIoT, Inc. should pursue would be a SaaS application. This is an Internet based service where the software is accessed online and there is no need to have it installed on site. This is a less expensive option than purchasing software and licenses, and it allows access to the outside vendors. It is also cheaper than hosted software. Based on the cloud location, the setup time is faster, which is what myIoT needs for a two-month turnaround.
#3: What types of technology implementation challenges might myIoT face? How can these risks be minimized?
Application integration would pose a challenge. Since there is a short time-frame, ensuring all partners are “up and running” could be their biggest issue. There will need to be a training period for all that access the data. Should any of their vendors not have the same capabilities, this could throw off their entire operation. Also, due to the variety of systems organizing and sharing information might be a problem. MyIot would need to work with its supply chain partners and vendors to ensure they are all capable using the chosen TMS and begin to implement it right away. This will allow extra time to make changes and enforce training sessions.
Desmond Post
2. To obtain the necessary transportation capabilities in a short timeframe, what type of software purchase option should myIoT pursue? Explain.
My Iot should pursue a well designed TMS software system. This system specializes in planning the flow of materials across the supply chain. It's the core of routing, rating, and, executing shipments across multiple modes tracking, load tracing, and freight settlement. The capabilities and scope of TMS expands the software to a much more integrative system. It provides support for transportation strategic, tactical, and operational planning, as well as delivery execution, in transit visibility and performance evaluation. TMS also supports appointment scheduling, metrics monitoring, and freight bill auditing.
3. Whats types of technology implemenation challenges might my iot face? How can these risks be minized?
My Iot could potentially loose time in wages, delay of shipment, and possibly loose business with customers, but these risks could be minimized by implementing better planning, develop training within your team, create effective structure and monitor the technology program by following these simple steps below to correct system and human error as they occur:

Case Study Planning for GrowthKelly’s Sandwich Stop is one of t.docx
Case Study: Planning for Growth
Kelly’s Sandwich Stop
is one of the best-known and most loved sandwich concessions in town. In business for about five years, she sells sandwiches and other lunch items made from locally produced food from her mobile food trailer. Kelly’s passion and talent for creating reliably fresh, tasty lunch fare popular among a business clientele (largely employees and shoppers) has made her small enterprise a booming success.
In the last year, Kelly added a bicycle-towed concession that travels to different strategic locations in town, selling her popular sandwiches to customers who work beyond walking distance of
Kelly’s Sandwich
Stop
. She now has a total of four employees, all part-time, working both concessions. Because she caters to urban customers, her concessions operate on week days from 10 am to 2 pm. To promote word-of-mouth advertising, Kelly uses Facebook to publish her daily menus and the locations of the bicycle concession.
As a sole proprietor, Kelly has been pleased with her lunch business success. Now it’s time to get serious about the future of her business. In the short and medium term, she wants to see it grow into a potentially more lucrative enterprise, implementing a greater variety of food products and services, and increasing her competitive edge in the region. Ever the ardent entrepreneur, Kelly’s long-term dream is to develop her creative, health-conscious culinary skills and services into a wider clientele outside the region.
An opportunity has arisen to lease restaurant space about 10 miles away from her trailer concession location, close to a mall and the suburbs and nearer to her local food producers. Kelly has jumped at the chance. While she has hired professional business consultants to help her set up the space, design the menu, and implement the opening of the restaurant, she must also consider the short- and long-term financial, HR, and management needs of such an expansion. Kelly is particularly sensitive to her relationship to her customers, employees, and the community.

In this case the committee is looking to see how you can apply communication skills to obtain the maximum job performance of the employee in each of the short scenarios. After reading each short case, prepare answers to the questions for the upcoming search committee interview to review.
Outcomes:
The students will demonstrate understanding of the following outcomes:
· How to manage, organize, and lead employees;
· To identify the organizational theory related to increasing job performance to raise company effectiveness;
· How to communicate effectively to affect change or motivation; and
· Writing for persuasiveness.
Scenarios and Questions:
After reading each short case, prepare answers to the questions for the upcoming search committee interview to review.
1) “RLI Home Builds a Castle on Communication”
Since the outset the owner Ralph Lorean has prided himself on focusing the culture of the company on excellent customer service. Managers know that a culture like this would only work if the company’s employees enjoyed their work and the company. He wanted to build a company where every employee felt they owned the castle. Ralph believed that communication was essential to making an employee feel a part of the group, so he often said that he never wanted employees to “read about their company in the media and learn something new.”
Because RLI is international in scope it is possible that on any given day or time two thirds of its 2,000 employees are outside an office. To conquer the communication this problem imposes Ralph is surveying his managers to see if they think a new, but very expensive, “dashboard” intranet system would be worth the expenditure. The system would ensure optimal communication strategies allowing every employee remote access from wherever they are. Regardless, of location every employee can share information on the dashboard from their cell phone. However, it does not offer a “SKYPE” feature. Management has sent a short questionnaire to you asking the following questions:
A) How would the new tool influence job performance positively in RLI?
B) Could dependence on a program which does not permit access to verbal or face to face communications hinder job performance in a global setting? If so why?
C) If the dashboard was only presented in English would this be a factor in its intracompany success?
D) One of the biggest reasons suggested for purchasing the system is that it allows information to flow both from top down to bottom up. Do you see this as possible if the company is not structured in a similar way? If so why, if not why not?
2) Email Over All! Richard Burton is one of the production supervisors at Lighting R Us a branch of RLI. Richard supervises 25 employees and has been performing well in this same job for 5 years. Burton wants a promotion in the foreseeable future but feels it unlikely. Burton is always “on”. He has 24/7 email access, texts al.

Processes in an Organization:
Collaboration Tools/Enterprise Social Media
Imagine that your boss requested a proposal on how collaboration can be improved in your organization. (If
you prefer not to use your current organization as an example, you can use a previous organization you
have worked or participated in, including volunteer organizations.) You have started learning about
enterprise social media and other technology-assisted collaboration tools and would like to consider how
these technology tools can improve and strengthen collaboration in your organization.
Consider the following aspects of organizational collaboration and technology that assists us with
collaboration in your proposal:
• What are the current, most common ways to collaborate in your organization?
• Does most of the collaboration occur in face-to-face situations or with the assistance of technology
(such as email, web meetings, discussion forums, document repositories, instant messaging/chats,
video calls, and enterprise social media)?
• What technology tools are available for collaboration in your organization and which of these
tools are commonly used?
• Can you envision how collaborative processes can be improved – both through process
improvement and through better use of technology?
• What changes in work processes will drive better collaboration and increased efficiencies for the
organization?
• Do you think existing collaborative technology tools you already have available in the
organization can play a significant part in improving collaboration? If so, explain how the tools
can help. If not, explain why you think the tools cannot help with improving collaboration.
• Are there additional technological collaboration tools your organization can invest in, that can be
part of the process to improve collaboration?
• If you could invest in only one additional technological collaboration tool, what would it be, and
what is the value you expect it to bring to your organization’s collaboration?
• What do you expect to be some of the challenges in introducing this new collaborative tool and
getting everyone to incorporate it into their work processes? How can you plan to address these
challenges?
Create your response as a proposal you will submit to your boss. Document the current collaborative
approaches in your organization. Provide a new strategy that will address current issues and aim to provide
improvement to organizational collaboration. Explain the potential risks as well as pros and cons of your
strategy.
Format your response as an APA paper and include a bibliography with references/sources you have consulated in preparing your proposal

Case study on Vulnerability and Marginalized Populations
How should public health professionals interact with families undergoing health crises?
How should public health professionals interact with the media in high profile cases?
How can understanding the experience of Louise Troh and her family help me become a better public health professional?
This week, instead of discussing a case study from your book, we are going to consider the experience of Louise Troh and her family. The goal is for you to work on your intellectual empathy give consideration to how you will interact with individuals who are vulnerable. Be sure to view the video news clips posted in this module for a sampling of the media coverage during the 2014 Ebola incident in Dallas.
Phase 1: Analyze Louise Troh's experience
In the first part of your discussion board, you will address several questions about the Louise Troh's memoir
My Spirit Took You In: The Romance that Sparked an Epidemic of Fear
. I’d like for each member of the team to
choose one question
to address.
Let your team know early in the week which question you will be answering.
1.
What characteristics of this family indicate that they are members of a vulnerable population?
2.
What stood out to you in Louise’s descriptions of Liberian culture?
3.
What stood out to you in Louise’s description of her experience as an immigrant adapting to a new culture?
4.
How did Louise’s employment and experience as a certified nurse’s aide impact her response to Mr. Duncan’s illness and hospitalization? Do you think she acted appropriately? Why or why not?
5.
Describe the role of the individual public health professionals who interacted with this family. In what ways did they do a good job? What could they have done better?
6.
Describe the response of the community (neighbors, church members, members of the Liberian community) to Mr. Duncan’s diagnosis of Ebola. Which responses were helpful? Which responses were harmful? What could the community have done better?
7.
Describe the response of the media. Was it appropriate, helpful, or harmful? Why? How did the media reports impact the public?
Phase 2: How will this case impact your practice as a public health professional?
In the second part of your discussion board, use your analysis to reflect on how you will practice as a public health professional. Respond to these prompts.
Each member of the team should respond to all four questions:
1.
Now that you have discussed the details of the case, engage your intellectual empathy. Which member of the surviving family did you identify with the most? Imagine that you are that person. Really take a few minutes to imagine what it would be like to be quarantined, how it would affect your work and personal life, what your grief would be like, and what it would be like to be treated with fear and bias by others.
2.
Consider the experience of Kaci Hickox, RN and Public Health Professional..

Case Study on the White House (Trump Administration)The White Ho.docx
Case Study on the White House (Trump Administration)
The White House plays a crucial role in the political culture of the United States because it is the official residence and the working place for the sitting president of our nation. However, the term White House is often used with an expanded meaning which refers to the president and his advisors. They work with him at the White House, crafting new polices to help his administration govern the country. President Donald J. Trump is the current president of the United States, whose administration is in charge with responsibilities of improving the lives of American citizens based on campaign pledges he gives to the American people. However, to better understand the roles and influences of the White House in American political culture, it is important to analyze the organization of the White House under President Trump. This analysis looks at the White House from the perspective of leadership, human resource, culture, and the organizational learning environment. This will help us understand the organization’s structure of the White House and the impact of culture which helps implement the president’s agenda.
The Trump’s Administration comprises of more than 300 employees who plays different roles. This includes advisors to the president, key staffers, domestic workers, the cabinet and other influential political leaders who works with the president on a day to day basis (Carter, Ulrich, & Goldsmith, 2004). The White House officials help the president develop domestic and foreign policies that focus on making the nation better. Senior White House officials under President Donald Trump includes cabinet rank officials and other presidential advisors on different matters. Among some of the most notable positions in the White House includes the Chief of Staff, Press Secretary and president’s advisor, US Trade Representative, Director of the Office of Management and Budget, Director of the Central Intelligence Agency, and Director of National Intelligence. With more than 300 hundred employees, the White House is one of the largest public organizations in the country. It is a diverse environment comprising of people from different cultural backgrounds, races, and ethnicities working together to achieve a common objective for the president’s goals and ambitions. Therefore, it is important to understand the human relations approach used at the White House and how leadership creates an environment to promotes the general of wellbeing for each employee.
How Was Culture Developed Through the Process of “Shared Learning,” Struggle and Growth?
Organizational culture contributes positive social changes in society. First and foremost, good organizational culture can impart positive values in the organization and employees (Burnes, 2009). These values can guide the employees towards initiating positive influences in society that will lead to improved social standards (Medley, & Akan, 2008). With a great organ.

Case Study of Kimberly, Part One Kimberly is a 17-year-old f.docx
Case Study of Kimberly, Part One
Kimberly is a 17-year-old female brought in for an evaluation by her mother, Diana. Even before you meet them, you hear the commotion in the waiting room, which concludes with Kimberly calling Diana a "stupid fucking bitch" and kicking a chair across the room.
Once in your office, the contrast between them is striking. The family lives in one of the pricier suburbs, and Diana works as an advertising executive. She is successful and well regarded, as is her husband, Kimberly's father, who works in international banking. Diana says that he regrets not being present, but there was a sudden meeting in Barcelona that required his attention. Diana is well-dressed, poised, and soft-spoken.
Kimberly, on the other hand, is quite gaunt, surly, noticeably unwashed, and dressed in full anarchist punk regalia. You count 11 piercings, some quite large, involving her tongue, lower lip, both nostrils, one eyebrow, and both ears; there may be more hidden by her dramatically dyed and styled hair.
Diana gives the following account as Kimberly shreds a Styrofoam cup, dropping the small pieces on the carpet, sighing loudly, scowling, and mumbling, "Bullshit."
Diana notes that she and her husband have "bent over backwards" to accept Kimberly's "lifestyle choices" and her friends. Kimberly has not been appreciative, but they understand that adolescence is a difficult time. In the past few months, however, Kimberly has lost 25 pounds and has become verbally abusive. She also displays dramatic mood swings and is physically violent, and she is completely disengaged from school, family, and her old friends. She has also taken to hoarding strange objects, and Diana has noticed strange burns on Kimberly's arms.
Diana has concluded that Kimberly has developed an eating disorder and is perhaps engaging in self-mutilation. Diana fears for Kimberly's health and for the loss of educational opportunity that will occur if Kimberly continues nonparticipation in the expensive private school she attends. When you ask Kimberly her view on her mother's concerns, she says, "Whatever."
You take some initial background information. Kimberly has one sister, four years older, who attends an Ivy League school on the East coast. Her sister had "eating disorder issues" in her freshman year in college, but worked through them in therapy and is now doing well. Diana reports that Kimberly was without problems until last year, when she began hanging around "a rougher element." Kimberly and her friends often spent weekends in a cabin in an isolated rural area, and Diana initially discounted the dangers of these rougher companions, thinking, "How bad can they be if they are into nature?"
When questioned, Diana says that Kimberly has been hoarding all sorts of odd flasks and containers, "just junk," but Diana has not otherwise examined them because they smell bad. "They must be filthy; I wonder if she got them out of a dumpster." She also reports that Kimbe.

Nike
Issues-based Campaigns
Issues based messaging
Research from FleishmanHillard shows that two-thirds of U.S. consumers say they have often or sometimes stopped using certain products or services because the company’s response to an issue didn’t support their personal views.
Consumers will reward you for doing the right thing. And they will enthusiastically punish you for behaving otherwise.
Issues based messaging
There’s a link between a consumer’s passion for an issue and her expectation that a brand will do something meaningful to address it.
Racism, gender discrimination and unemployment, are the issues that rank as “extremely/very important” to the kinds of consumers who are most actively engaged with brands.
Issues based messaging
Will your core demographics abandon you for getting involved in controversial subjects? Probably not.
61 percent of those surveyed said that, even if they disagree with a company’s position on an issue of importance, they give that company credit for expressing its views.
If a company's customer base includes millennials, there’s an even higher expectation that it speak out (75 percent).
Issues based messaging
Words aren’t enough; consumers are watching actions.
The research found that 47 percent of engaged customers are less or not at all likely to purchase from companies whose business practices are inconsistent with their CSR promises.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.
