RESPOND TO TIFFANY, Brandon, Anna and Shannon by Asking RELEVANT QUESTIONS
Tiffany post
I was an administrative assistant for a large (800 units) apartment complex for 3 years... Given my background in Customer Service/Sales, I had no idea how to function as an administrative assistant. Part of my responsibilities was to create and send the majority of correspondence to all residents.
Initially, it seemed like I got everything wrong, because the wording, jargon, and legalities of property management. Since I didn't have any examples of sample letters I had to "wing it". Needless to say, every time I sent correspondence out, the calls were soon to follow, whether it was because I didn't have the date and time for an occurrence, or the building/apartment number listed, etc.
I often wondered to myself what's the big deal, but then over time, I realized it was a HUGE breakdown in communication within someone's place of residence... No matter how nice I could smooth someone over with my customer services, it doesn't take away the multiple feelings of anxiety that I may have caused individuals simply by not giving enough information.
Once I got the hang of giving detailed information to the community and individuals about their home/comm.

Interpersonal Communication Competence Reflection
Communication is the basic interaction that exists between persons in the society. It has been defined as the underpinning factor of man’s dealings while going about the usual business on a daily basis (DeVito, 1995). Through interpersonal communication, we are able to exchange feelings, information and meaning both verbally and non-verbally. By understanding this, it becomes possible to understand exactly what interpersonal communication competence is – the disciple required in communication. According to Knapp, communication competence is one’s ability to choose the communication behavior that is both effective and appropriate in its use under a specific circumstance. This paper gains an extensive insight on technical aspect of communication and its aspects that are mostly overlooked by many.
It would be a lie if I stated my communication competence is of high standards. However, it can be termed as a sufficiently effective one as per the outcome that has been noticed over the course of time. According to my self-assessment on “Intercultural sensitivity”, I noticed that U had high communication competence skill on interaction engagement, interaction confidence and lack competency on interaction enjoyment. By completing this assessment, I realized that I am able to engage in conversation with another individual and have this confidence in what I am saying or to whom I am communicating with. It also came to my attention that I have high communication competence while interacting in situations where persons are debating or arguing on a certain issue but lack interaction enjoyment when interacting with an individual, I learned that why I lack this ability is due to my lack of concentrating on the topic been discussed or I get distracted easily when an individual is trying to communicate with me. I learned that to be a good communicator, I need to improve on my interaction skills when it comes to enjoying the conversation and pay close attention to what is been said to me, I can do so by getting rid of outside distractions that can easily distract me. Also, my assessment on “how interpersonal are your relationship”, I realized that my relationship is interpersonal in different ways and how effectiveness and appropriateness is important in the way I communicate with individuals. Also, I learned that I have the ability to change my goals and motives to meet the needs of the people am communicating with, I also understood that in the way I communicate with people, I use verbal and non verbal cues to show my understanding to what an individual is saying to me. After the completion of this assessment, I realized that effectiveness and appropriateness both contributes in making me a good communicator and I had to learn on how to improve more on the way I communicate effectively and appropriately. When I completed the listening response, I learnt that in the way I listen and respond to individuals is.

What are your basic assumptions about human nature?
My basic assumption about human nature is that even though none of us are perfect, we all strive for our own idea of perfection. By working too much towards how we think we should be it can cause stress, anxiety, depression and other mental health issues and often these are the root cause of them. Humans are beautifully imperfect and while, yes, oftentimes we all have behaviors to be altered, we need to embrace ourselves with love and kindness. It is easy to give someone else our love, patience and kindness, but if we turn that inward we can be the best version of ourselves, perfect or not.
Which approach to therapy is closest to your beliefs about human nature?
The therapy that is closest to my beliefs about human nature is existential therapy. "Existential therapy focuses on exploring themes such as mortality, meaning, freedom, responsibility, anxiety, and aloneness as these relate to a person’s current struggle." (Corey, 2013). Existential therapy looks at the bigger picture of humanity and encourages celebration and appreciation of our successes rather than focusing on downfalls.
In what ways do you believe that your basic assumptions might determine the procedures that you would use when working with clients?
My basic assumptions will help me to focus on the good in my clients and not the negative that they themselves may focus on. It will give me a better understanding of why people feel their own shortcomings and how to show them that there is good and valuable qualities in everyone.

When you look into the mirror, you are checking how you appear, and how you feel and whether it matches. Human nature is the sum of our whole species looking in the mirror. Human nature includes 3 core characteristics shared by all individuals; feelings, behaviors, and psychology. Our experiences with humans are different. Some view humans as good or bad or capable of great kindness. These views can be clouded by what our culture tells us and by people's influences in our lives. In western cultures, our discussions usually begin with classical Greece; Aristotle and Plato (Claudia, 2021).
My basic assumptions about human nature is that we can survive from our past and that humans are generally kind creatures and extremely resilient. I believe that humans construct their reality. They do not have to be destined to a certain life based solely on their past circumstances. We have the ability to overcome mountains of challenges with proper thinking and behaviors. We are responsible creatures for our choices and can therefore change and become something. I am proof of these assumptions. My teenage years were so bad that I lost my identity and lacked the proper social developments that most teens have. According to Corey, (2013.

By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
SHOW LESS
Competency 1: Describe theoretical ideas of power in relation to policy.
Discuss how minority and dominant groups are portrayed in a media piece in relation to the influence of power.
Discuss sociological concepts or theories appropriate for understanding the portrayal of diversity in the media.
Competency 2: Identify historical and contemporary influences of discrimination in U. S. culture.
Summarize a media piece using the sociological perspective on diversity.
Competency 3: Analyze the effects of social policy using aggregated data.
Analyze data that are appropriate for supporting or refuting the central tenets of media piece.
Competency 6: Apply in text the standard writing conventions for the discipline, including structure, voice, person, tone, and citation formatting.
Write coherently to support a central idea in appropriate format and with few errors of grammar, usage, and mechanics.
How are different social groups portrayed in the mass media in contemporary society? How far have we come in terms of reducing or eliminating stereotypical images and portrayals of minority groups? To answer these questions, we need to place them in the context of the economic, technological, and social changes that have shaped postindustrial U.S. society and affected relationships between diverse groups in our society. For example, watching TV sitcoms and dramas today we see not only much greater diversity in cast members but also minority group members playing leading roles, something that was much less common just a few decades ago.
As you analyze how the various media forms portray cultural diversity, another thing to consider is the role of people with power in the media industry—those who make the decisions about what stories and images appear on a TV news program or magazine or newspaper article and how those programs or stories will be framed.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.
SHOW LESS
Some sociologists who study the media argue that the media is a reflection of what is already happening in society, while others contend that the media manipulates its audience by portraying events or issues with a particular slant or goal in mind. What do you think? Does the media reflect what is already going on in society, or.

Write a 3-5 page paper describing where a physician practice and a h.docxowenhall46084
Write a 3-5 page paper describing where a physician practice and a hospital fall on the continuum of patient care, explaining the scope of responsibility and authority at the physician practice, and describing the differences of management's approach across the two settings.
Introduction
As a health care administrator, you will likely spend a great deal of your time focused on operations. You may find yourself working in a hospital, clinic, long-term care facility, hospice, urgent care center, home health agency, or a number of other types of organizations. Regardless of the type of organization, many of the operational responsibilities are the same.
Health care financing has become quite complex. Because most health care organizations are reimbursed primarily from a third party (insurance company), health care administrators must manage the communication between the patient, the insurance company, and the organization. Consumer-directed health plans (CDHPs) have increased in popularity as a way to reduce insurance premiums; however, the patient has a larger financial responsibility for services compared to managed care plans. This concept is known as cost sharing (Niles, 2021). It is very important to understand the payer mix of your organization, so you understand where and how revenue is coming in.
Information technology is another huge area of focus right now for health care administrators. The health care industry has lagged behind other industries in the area of information technology. The U.S. health care system has seen a large increase in the number of electronic medical records implemented across health care organizations (Niles, 2021). In addition, other technologies such as telehealth, electronic data warehouses (EDWs), and computerized physician order entry (CPOE) are quickly expanding and improving the delivery of health care.

Write a 3–5-page essay analyzing from a sociological perspective a chosen diversity issue covered in the media.
By successfully completing this assessment, you will demonstrate your proficiency in the following course competencies and assessment criteria:
SHOW LESS
Competency 1: Describe theoretical ideas of power in relation to policy.
Discuss how minority and dominant groups are portrayed in a media piece in relation to the influence of power.
Discuss sociological concepts or theories appropriate for understanding the portrayal of diversity in the media.
Competency 2: Identify historical and contemporary influences of discrimination in U. S. culture.
Summarize a media piece using the sociological perspective on diversity.
Competency 3: Analyze the effects of social policy using aggregated data.
Analyze data that are appropriate for supporting or refuting the central tenets of media piece.
Competency 6: Apply in text the standard writing conventions for the discipline, including structure, voice, person, tone, and citation formatting.
Write coherently to support a central idea in appropriate format and with few errors of grammar, usage, and mechanics.
How are different social groups portrayed in the mass media in contemporary society? How far have we come in terms of reducing or eliminating stereotypical images and portrayals of minority groups? To answer these questions, we need to place them in the context of the economic, technological, and social changes that have shaped postindustrial U.S. society and affected relationships between diverse groups in our society. For example, watching TV sitcoms and dramas today we see not only much greater diversity in cast members but also minority group members playing leading roles, something that was much less common just a few decades ago.
As you analyze how the various media forms portray cultural diversity, another thing to consider is the role of people with power in the media industry—those who make the decisions about what stories and images appear on a TV news program or magazine or newspaper article and how those programs or stories will be framed.
As you prepare to complete this assessment, you may want to think about other related issues to deepen your understanding or broaden your viewpoint. You are encouraged to consider the questions below and discuss them with a fellow learner, a work associate, an interested friend, or a member of your professional community. Note that these questions are for your own development and exploration and do not need to be completed or submitted as part of your assessment.
SHOW LESS
Some sociologists who study the media argue that the media is a reflection of what is already happening in society, while others contend that the media manipulates its audience by portraying events or issues with a particular slant or goal in mind. What do you think? Does the media reflect what is already going on in society, or.

Write a 3-5 page paper describing where a physician practice and a h.docxowenhall46084
Write a 3-5 page paper describing where a physician practice and a hospital fall on the continuum of patient care, explaining the scope of responsibility and authority at the physician practice, and describing the differences of management's approach across the two settings.
Introduction
As a health care administrator, you will likely spend a great deal of your time focused on operations. You may find yourself working in a hospital, clinic, long-term care facility, hospice, urgent care center, home health agency, or a number of other types of organizations. Regardless of the type of organization, many of the operational responsibilities are the same.
Health care financing has become quite complex. Because most health care organizations are reimbursed primarily from a third party (insurance company), health care administrators must manage the communication between the patient, the insurance company, and the organization. Consumer-directed health plans (CDHPs) have increased in popularity as a way to reduce insurance premiums; however, the patient has a larger financial responsibility for services compared to managed care plans. This concept is known as cost sharing (Niles, 2021). It is very important to understand the payer mix of your organization, so you understand where and how revenue is coming in.
Information technology is another huge area of focus right now for health care administrators. The health care industry has lagged behind other industries in the area of information technology. The U.S. health care system has seen a large increase in the number of electronic medical records implemented across health care organizations (Niles, 2021). In addition, other technologies such as telehealth, electronic data warehouses (EDWs), and computerized physician order entry (CPOE) are quickly expanding and improving the delivery of health care.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

3. number listed, etc.
I often wondered to myself what's the big deal, but then over
time, I realized it was a HUGE breakdown in communication
within someone's place of residence... No matter how nice I
could smooth someone over with my customer services, it
doesn't take away the multiple feelings of anxiety that I may
have caused individuals simply by not giving enough
information.
Once I got the hang of giving detailed information to the
community and individuals about their home/community, my
job became 10x's easier and the Residents seemed much more
happier. Success came with me brainstorming, re-reading what
I had written, and making the necessary revisions.
As a student, I understand brainstorming will be my best friend,
before submitting my papers, and before I communicate with my
Professors. This way I can have a clear and open dialogue with
my and not have to forget anything.
I believe as a family therapist who deals with addiction that
communication is the ONLY way I will be successful, with that
said, I feel like I need to learn multiple styles of communication
so that I can be relatable to my Clients.

There was a time when I was in a high school creative writing
class that the final message for a paper I wrote was completely
misinterpreted. We were given a very open-ended assignment to
write a story with a message, that’s it no guidelines outside of a
clear message being present. To summarize the story, I
wrote for the class it was a dinner party murder mystery. There
was the initial victim and the seven remaining suspects, each
4. were representative of one of the seven deadly sins. In the end
all the guests died except for the woman representing
envy because she eventually put aside her jealousy towards
other characters and focused on her own talents and
cunning, and thus able to solve the mystery and escape. It was
supposed to be a message of overcoming yourself as an obstacle
and redemption. My instructor, however missed my message
and felt I arbitrarily choose a character to survive, or maybe I
was implying envy was not a sin to the same degree as the
others. I came to realize that the reason my instructor missed
the message was due to the lack of time and description I used
when conveying this change to the reader. If I had drawn more
attention to the character's change or started peppering hints of
the change to come sooner in the story, I could have conveyed
the message much more clearly.
I feel that reviewing my writing has always been my weak spot.
When I write I usually take my time and plan out each sentence
before moving on to the next, reviewing as I go. This helps me
catch small spelling and grammar errors before I move on, but I
can still miss gaps in the overarching story or argument in
trying to make. Since I utilize a lot of energy revising
each sentence as I go, combing through the entire paper again
can seem daunting while also less rewarding
since I'm usually confident I don’t have many spelling or
grammar errors. A good middle ground for me would
most likely be to instead review my work paragraph
by paragraph, instead of sentence by sentence or going back to
reread an entire essay in one sitting.
Communication is essential in every career path and my desired
field of computer science is no exception. Communicating is
key in making sure that everyone working on one project is
moving efficiently towards one larger goal with no
errors. Collaboration and clarity are imperative in
ensuring programs function smoothly. In my academic career
5. I’m sure reaching out to professors and academic peers will
prove invaluable to my success and advancement towards
earning my degree. It’s a resource I've sorely neglected
in the past.

What are the key characteristics of cognitive therapy that
distinguish it from other therapy approaches?
Cognitive therapy focuses on the here and now. It does not look
to the past or focus too far into the future, the present is what is
important, what can we change now? How can we alter our
current perception? How can we help ourselves in our current
situation? Cognitive therapy is a problem-solving technique
based on achieving specific goals.
2.What is the role of the client/therapist relationship from the
cognitive therapist’s point of view?
The relationship from the cognitive therapist's point of view is
meant to make the client feel comfortable enough to express
detailed behaviors, bad habits and negative though processes
they may be caught up in. The therapist is meant to assist the
client in working through those and find realistic goals and
solutions.
3. What are some cognitive behavioral techniques used with
Tim in his therapy session?
Tim's therapist used a sentence completion technique and used
6. detailed descriptors to help Tim pinpoint his issues. He made
Tim question his thought process and the use of negative
language towards himself like the "losers" comment. The
therapist questioned him on what he has currently tried and why
he thinks it isn't working. He then asked Tim to identify his
largest issue and found ways to tackle them and set specific
goals and a clear cut course to achieve those. He also asked him
journal for when his negative thoughts popped up and to use
cost benefit analysis and percentage analysis to combat his
negativity.
4. If you were to continue working with Tim as his counselor,
what specific cognitive behavioral techniques might you use?
I would encourage Tim to continue to journal, but not only
focus on altering his negative thought process, and use the cost
benefit and percentage analysis. I would additionally ask his to
use stress reduction and relaxation techniques when he feels too
overwhelmed or anxious.
5. What goals would you have in mind for Tim?
Tim's largest issues are his lack of fulfillment in his career and
his single life. I would set up goals like apply for 3 jobs a week
that Tim feels he is a good candidate for and to schedule one
social/group activity outside of his regular hangout with his
friends (i.e. rock climbing, yoga, amateur group sports, etc.).
These should help Tim to actively socialize and meet new
people which will assist with his self esteem, this is turn could
encourage new job opportunities and ways for Tim to network
along with his applications.

7. What are the key characteristics of cognitive therapy that
distinguish it from other therapy approaches?
The key characteristics of CBT is knowing how to separate
rational thoughts from irrational thoughts. Learning how to
change your beliefs. It teaches people not to listen to the
“shoulds” in life and focus on the now. CBT works on changing
the client’s pattern of thinking. Instead of focusing on the
negative should have or must, they focus on the now. What is
the rational now not the belief.
What is the role of the client/therapist relationship from the
cognitive therapist’s point of view?
The therapist is responsible for teaching the clients to see all
the unconditional “shoulds” that they have in their lives and
how to turn them around. A second thing the therapist should
do is to teach the client how to dispute irrational thoughts.
Finally, the therapist is teaching the client how to use rational
thinking in place of irrational thinking.
What are some cognitive behavioral techniques used with Tim
in his therapy session?
The first one I noticed was sentence completion. This forced
Tim to talk about what his belief was about why he was sad. It
also brought about his belief about himself. He felt he was such
a looser. Next the therapist made him see his thoughts as
irrational. Tim admitted that not everyone without a “good” job
8. was losers. They also created a problem list and prioritized it,
so they knew what was most important to focus on first. They
were goal setting.
If you were to continue working with Tim as his counselor,
what specific cognitive behavioral techniques might you use?
I would continue working on his problem list and meeting his
goals and making new ones along the way. I would also want
him to keep a journal about every time he felt negative feelings
toward himself. We would work on breaking his habit of saying
should. Show him how to focus on right now not on his future.
What can he be doing right now to change where he is in life?
What goals would you have in mind for Tim?
He would need to continue seeking a new job and apply to a
new job every week. He would need to question himself every
time he feels or says anything negative about himself. Continue
to journal about his negative thoughts. What is he feeling at the
time of the thought?
