Write a 4–6-page report for a senior leader that communicates your evaluation of current organizational or interprofessional team performance, with respect to prescribed benchmarks set forth by government laws and policies at the local, state, and federal levels. In addition, advocate for ethical action to address benchmark underperformance and explain the potential for improving the overall quality of care and performance, as reflected on a performance dashboard. In the era of health care reform, many of the laws and policies set forth by government at the local, state, and federal levels have specific performance benchmarks related to care delivery outcomes that organizations must achieve. It is critical for organizational success that the interprofessional care team is able to understand reports and dashboards that display the metrics related to performance and compliance benchmarks. Maintaining standards and promoting quality in modern health care are crucial, not only for the care of patients, but also for the continuing success and financial viability of health care organizations. In the era of health care reform, health care leaders must understand what quality care entails and how quality in health care connects to the standards set forth by relevant federal, state, and local laws and policies. An understanding of relevant benchmarks that result from these laws and policies, and how they relate to quality care and regulatory standards, is also vitally important. Health care is a dynamic, complex, and heavily regulated industry. For this reason, you will be expected to constantly scan the external environment for emerging laws, new regulations, and changing industry standards. You may discover that as new policies are enacted into law, ambiguity in interpretation of various facets of the law may occur. Sometimes, new laws conflict with preexisting laws and regulations, or unexpected implementation issues arise, which may warrant further clarification from lawmakers. Adding partisan politics and social media to the mix can further complicate understanding of the process and buy-in from stakeholders. Assessment Instructions Note : Your evaluation of dashboard metrics for this assessment is the foundation on which all subsequent assessments are based. Therefore, you must complete this assessment first. Write a report for a senior leader that communicates your evaluation of current organizational or interprofessional team performance with respect to prescribed benchmarks set forth by government laws and policies at the local, state, and federal levels. In addition, advocate for ethical action to address benchmark underperformance and explain the potential for improving the overall quality of care and performance, as reflected on a performance dashboard. Review the performance dashboard metrics, as well as relevant local, state, and federal laws and policies. Consider the metrics that are falling short of the prescribed benchmar.

( LLD10 0 W B ) ( 1 ) Background ANALYTICAL REPORT ASSIGNMENT GUIDE An analytical report is a technical or professional document written for business or government uses. These reports use information from surveys, financial records, and other reliable sources to reach conclusions that help reviewers make important decisions. It is different from an informational report because it analyzes a situation and persuasively presents conclusions and recommendations. This type of report is covered in Ch. 10 (p. 250-252) of your textbook (a sample full report is on pages 281-294). A student sample report with instructor comments is also available. Goals of analytical reports Depending on the purpose, an analytical report can accomplish one of three goals. Once you have chosen a context and topic, you will need to establish which type of goal you are after. Below are three main types; your analytical report will only take on one type of goal: To Assess Opportunities This kind of analytical report informs decision makers about a new and potentially successful endeavor. For example, you could suggest that a retail snacks company consider a gluten-free version to its most popular cookie line. For the report, you would include information on food industry trends and examples of other companies in similar markets. Examples: market analysis reports, due diligence reports To Solve Problems Reports that solve problems do exactly what they claim: they solve problems. Using previous examples of similar situations and weighing the options between solutions, you should make clear recommendations to a decision-maker based on the research compiled. For example, a business might be facing higher costs due to recent upgrades and is seeking ways to reduce spending while maintaining sales. What solutions and/or plan of action could be proposed? Examples: troubleshooting reports, failure analysis reports To Support Decisions If an organization or business is making a big move in the near future, a report could analyze the effects (both positive and negative) a big decision will have on the organization. If done retrospectively -- as in, the move has already been made and there have been repercussions, good or bad -- then you may use the available data to analyze the move. Examples: feasibility reports, justification reports Report topic examples: · To analyze the benefits of adopting a new employee dress code at X company · To analyze market data and present opportunities for growth in a chosen market · To introduce an alternative approach to a current problem or issue · To propose solutions to declining sales · To justify a current change in workplace policy Considerations when choosing your topic: · Choose a context you are familiar with (i.e., a company you’ve worked for, a business you have stock in, an organization you either follow or are a part of) · Choose a realistic topic – don’t attempt to make something up that is either unrelatable or too extreme (alth ...

Assignment 1 At the heart of democratic public administration and leadership is the goal to serve the public interest while seeking to achieve the underlying policy goals of equity, efficiency, security, and liberty. How would you integrate an understanding of the public interest into your organization? Use at least two specific examples. Make sure you define the term “public interest” in your answer. With this in mind, consider the following questions. Sometimes critics will assail “democratic public administration” with the following remarks: “You just can’t let employees vote on everything!” “If you let employees have too much say, they’ll just cut back their work hours or productivity!” “I can’t let employees have this much say because they just don’t know enough of the rationale behind our decisions!” What would be your response to these types of critiques? Or do you agree with them? By the due date assigned, post your response to this Discussion Area. Assignment 4 Locate seven grants. The seven grants are listed below by type. For each grant, include in the assignment a summary of the grant and provide a URL or link to the RFP or instructions for the grant (not just a general list of grants). The seven grants are: · Government grants · Two federal grant opportunities with at least one related to your statement of needs · One state grant · One local (city, county, or school district) grant · Foundation sources · Two foundation grants- at least one should be appropriate to fund your project/program · Corporate source · One corporate grant Assignment 6 Most funders will request an evaluation of the grant program. The funder wants evidence that the funded program achieved its intended outcomes. Therefore, understanding types of evaluation methods and evaluation criteria is important. Using the course material and additional research: 1. Discuss formative and summative evaluations. 2. Research evaluation criteria used in three grant proposals, identify the criteria used, and discuss any commonalities between the criteria. 3. Now that you know more about program evaluations, how might you write the grant proposal differently? Cite all sources and provide references in APA format on a separate page. Assignment 2 Budget Allocations: A Tool for Implementing Public Policy Before working on this discussion forum, please review the link "Doing Discussion Questions Right,” the expanded grading rubric for the forum, and any specific instructions for this week’s topic. This week, we covered several topics pertaining to the implementation phase of the policymaking process. The budget as an implementation tool and how budget allocations reflect policy decisions were examined. Then, we discussed the critical role of monitoring and evaluation in ensuring that the public interest was being served. Finally, democratic approaches to public administration were reviewed within the context of how advances in technology, specifically in e-government, ca.

Review the performance dashboard for a health care organization, as well as relevant local, state, and federal laws and policies. Then, write a report for senior leaders in the organization that communicates your analysis and evaluation of the current state of organizational performance, including a recommended metric to target for improvement. Introduction Note: Each assessment in this course builds on the work you completed in the previous assessment. Therefore, you must complete the assessments in this course in the order in which they are presented. In the era of health care reform, many of the laws and policies set by government at the local, state, and federal levels have specific performance benchmarks related to care delivery outcomes that organizations must achieve.

Conduct a case study analysis and write 5-6 pages on the different characteristics of the supply chain strategy, including transportation, for a selected company. Introduction In this assessment, you will research a selected company and develop a case study analysis. All operational activities begin with an estimate of what customer demands will be. Production schedules, modes of transportation, warehouse space, and other supply chain activities are all dependent on the accuracy of the company's demand forecasting. The information management system must provide thorough, accurate, and timely information so that supply chain managers can prepare and execute short- and long-term plans. Satisfying the customer is the number one challenge for all demand forecasters. Overview In this assessment, you will research a selected company and develop a case study analysis on forecasting and planning a supply chain. Instructions Consider that you work for a company that develops and sells case studies and case study analyses. Your company's primary customers are colleges and universities wanting to use them within their courses, but your company also has customers using them for management training and development. Your manager asked you to conduct research and develop a case study analysis on the company's supply chain strategy, including transportation. She's specifically interested in you doing the analysis on one of the companies from this list: Amazon. Apple. L. L. Bean. Starbucks. Walmart. Research and write about the company that you have selected from the above list. You and your manager discussed the high-level outline of your analysis and agreed you should address the following items: Describe the company's business model and illustrate the business model through the use of a diagram or visual. Compare and contrast the company's supply chain strategy with another organization's strategies and summarize key findings of areas the other organization excels in. Use another company from the list to determine which supply chain areas the company excels at compared to your selected company. Analyze the transportation strategy of the company using examples of the various transportation modes to support the effectiveness of moving products from factories to customers. Analyze the global challenges that the company faces in its supply chain and discuss risks and associated strategies to minimize the risks. Analyze the economic and political factors that can impact the company’s transportation network and relate to future improvements. Analyze the role demand forecasting plays in the company's supply chain strategy and support the analysis with ways to manage challenges of forecasting in times of uncertainty.

PAD 502: Organizational Dynamics Final Project – Learning Assessment of a Real-World Organization The purpose of this assignment is to create an opportunity for students to apply the ideas and concepts discussed in the class and the readings in the analysis of a real-world organization. Your choice of an organization will be an important one, and may be drawn from your own experience or be an organization were information is readily available. Be sure to maintain a professional stance in relation to matters that are sensitive and confidential. When necessary, you should disguise the source of your project (unless the case is drawn from public records) through use of appropriate pseudonyms. Confidentiality and the general conduct of the project are entirely your responsibility, so proceed with caution and ethical care. In essence, the case study invites you to do the following: 1) Identify an organization to be assessed based on the principles of organizational learning (overall course theme). 2) Consider the three organizational perspectives and the associated materials as lenses for such an assessment. 3) Engage in research activity that allows you to test the relevance of the different ideas through the accumulation of relevant information and data. Formal Requirements 1. Part 1 – Organizational Overview (25 Points) (Due 10/16 at 11:59 PM) The aim of part 1 is to get you started on the project and to get you into a frame of mind that is analytical, takes the ideas discussed in the class and applies them to the organization being studied. This report should be no more than 6 double-spaced typewritten pages (APA format) and include the following: A brief account of the organization being investigated, providing sufficient information for the reader to understand the nature of the organization and its context. This section should include relevant background information as well as a clear statement of the focus of your case study. For example, it is appropriate to provide information on the age, size, and history of the organization, the product or services it provides, and the general nature of its environment. The account should also offer a clear, concise argument as to the value of assessing this organization based on the principles of organizational learning. This is a critical dimension of your paper and cannot be overemphasized. Recall that our objective in this course is always to demonstrate the relevance of sound theory to real-world organizations. Part 1, then, should be demonstrate the potential value of organizational learning principles specifically for your chosen organization and more broadly for good government. Make sure that the report is written in a professional manner. It will be judged according to the quality of analysis and presentation, in accordance with the criteria listed later in the grading rubric. MnM 2 Guidelines for Case Study Project Grading .

Chapter 13 speaks at length on the topic of Sexual Harassment because it is an obvious example of an abuse of power. Most examples of this are not overtly obvious. Problems today are likely to surface around more subtle forms of sexual harassment--unwanted looks or comments, off-color jokes, sexual artifacts like pinups posted in the workplace, or misinterpretations of where the line between being friendly ends and harassment begins. Assume you are standing with a group of co-workers in the office, all huddled around a cubicle. You are all discussing an episode of your favorite show from the previous night, and some of the content is sexual in nature. Everyone in your group laughs, and in a few more minutes, everyone goes back to work. A co-worker was sitting in her cubicle nearby during this conversation. She was not participating in the group, but overheard the conversation and was offended. She decides to file a formal complaint of sexual harassment. Everyone...what do you think? Should this be considered sexual harassment? add reference .

Changes in culture and technology have resulted in patient populations that are often well informed and educated, even before consulting or considering a healthcare need delivered by a health professional. Fueled by this, health professionals are increasingly involving patients in treatment decisions. However, this often comes with challenges, as illnesses and treatments can become complex. What has your experience been with patient involvement in treatment or healthcare decisions? In this Discussion, you will share your experiences and consider the impact of patient involvement (or lack of involvement). You will also consider the use of a patient decision aid to inform best practices for patient care and healthcare decision making. To Prepare: Review the Resources and reflect on a time when you experienced a patient being brought into (or not being brought into) a decision regarding their treatment plan. Review the Ottawa Hospital Research Institute’s Decision Aids Inventory at https://decisionaid.ohri.ca/.

Cesar’s Last Fast movie. .In 1988, Cesar Chavez embarked on what would be his last act of protest in his remarkable life. Driven in part to pay penance for feeling he had not done enough, Chavez began his "Fast for Life," a 36-day water-only hunger strike, to draw attention to the horrific effects of unfettered pesticide use on farm workers, their families, and their communities. Using never-before-seen footage of Chavez during his fast and testimony from those closest to him, directors Richard Ray Perez and Lorena Parlee weave together the larger story of Chavez's life, vision, and legacy. A deeply religious man, Chavez's moral clarity in organizing and standing with farmworkers at risk of his own life humbled his family, friends, and the world. Please write a reflection paper about the movie 2 pages long. Watch the movie and then write. I need it tomorrow as it is the deadline. Thanks .

Cellular reproduction in Eukaryotes involves either mitosis or, in the case of sex cells, meiosis. Mitosis involves the reproduction of a cell into two identical daughter cells. Meiosis, however, is a reduction division where a parental diploid cell produces four haploid gametes. Upon fusion, two haploid gametes (in humans the sperm and the egg) will result in one diploid zygote. In this activity you will track chromosomes through meiosis using colored beads. .

Cellular Communication: Autocrine, Paracrine or Endocrine? As you are learning, your body and the bodies of all organisms are highly complex, comprised of many different types of cells, each with a vital function that is required for the body’s survival. There are mechanisms that act like lines of communication, allowing different cells to communicate. Messenger molecules serve to coordinate signals between cells and between organs and are described as having autocrine (internal), paracrine (local) or endocrine (system-wide) functions. Without these messenger molecules, how else does your liver know when to produce important proteins for homeostasis? How does your heart know when to beat faster and then slow down? How do your lungs know when to breathe faster? The communications between your brain and organs, and between the different organs must be tightly regulated and controlled. For this discussion board, select two types of messengers that our body uses to communicate between organs or between different cell types. Describe the messengers. Discuss where the messengers are made and what is their function. Are the messengers part of an autocrine, paracrine or endocrine pathway? What would happen if the messengers you have selected were inactive? .
