However, this will give you an idea of the formatting and the detail I am looking for.) Concepts in Organizational Communication I. Introduction A. Opening: Given that our purpose here at Stamper Consulting is to produce the world’s best consulting services tour customers. B. Discuss issues within the organization and why I am going to submit this proposal. In order to do so, I hereby propose a new communication structure for our organization that will lay the interpersonal foundation to make all of this possible. C. Thesis: The following concepts are important for successful communication of this sort: nonverbal communication, cultural sensitivity, active listening, conflict resolution, the tactical and strategic facets of communication, being ethical and positive, being technologically savvy; what is more, this will all be implemented through training and reinforcement. II. Nonverbal communication: The first concept that is important for successful communication within an organizational setting is nonverbal communication. A. Supporting evidence: According to a study by Graham and Jennings of Wichita State and Unruh of National Institute for Management, over 50 percent of respondents felt that their supervisors’ verbal communication messages were frequently disaffirmed by their nonverbal cues. This often caused miscommunication, distrust, and frustration (Graham, Unruh, & Jennings, 1991). 1. Explanation: It is important for successful communication for a number of reasons. First and foremost, regardless of one’s feelings on the subject, the fact is that the nonverbal aspect of communication is a reality. Further, it is a source of major significance in terms of the impressions and unwritten messages that people constantly read into day-to-day communication. That is how human interaction has always been and, as they say, this truth is not going away anytime soon. In particular, consistency between a person’s verbal and nonverbal communication carries credibility with others, signaling a certain element of trustworthiness.

I. Introduction and Thesis Statement
I am writing this letter to emphasize the importance of interpersonal communication in the workplace. Effective communication at the workplace has many benefits among them employee morale, team building, and workplace diversity which all help increase productivity at the workplace.
II. Body
1) Principles and barriers to effective interpersonal communications.
A. Topic Sentence
The achievement of effective interpersonal communication is usually through the conscious awareness of four principles: It is inescapable; It is irreversible; It is complicated, and It is contextual.
B. Supporting Evidence
King explains that the principles underlie the mechanisms of real life interpersonal communication and such we cannot just ignore them. The four principles are basic to communication (King, 2000).
C. Explanation
We cannot escape from communicating. Communicating is not restricted to verbal communication, we communicate significantly through our body language. It is also important to keep in mind that once you have communicated, either verbally or non- verbally, it is irreversible. Different words have different meanings by different people in different circumstances, further illustrating the complicated nature of interpersonal communication. Communication also does not happen in isolation according to the contextual principle. The contexts referred to, in this case, are psychological, relational, situational, environmental, and cultural.
D. Why Does This Matter?
It is important to have knowledge of these principles since all barriers to interpersonal communication relate to one of the principles. With the know-how, you can easily handle tricky situations as regards interpersonal communication.
2) Analysis of the role of communication in developing and maintaining one’s self- concept, self- image, and self- esteem.
A. Topic Sentence
Self- concept, self- esteem, and self- image affect an individual’s ability to be sensitive to others, their interpretation of messages, their social needs, and their typical communication style.
B. Supporting Evidence
The way we communicate with others is of major importance since we let people know who we are, what our values are, what we believe in, and how we feel. The communication process influences our own behavior and self-concept. It also influences the behavior and self- concept of others too (South Eastern CASA, 2015).
C. Explanation
Becoming other- oriented is the first step in developing quality interpersonal relationships with others especially at the workplace. It is all about being sensitive to the thoughts and feelings of others in the workplace.

1. Explain effective communication norms in a business setting
The idea that people need to have feedback, appreciation and information is a good basis for understanding how and why excellent business communication is important and compelling for success. In fact, not only do they need it for appreciation, they need it to continue to be effective and be successful. If we do not give feedback and communicate we will lose our influence and cut into creating successful results. Some of the basic business communication norms include responding to business needs. These needs include returning phone calls, following up on a request, listening intently, appreciative communication, and clear communications with details and directions, doing what you say you will do, remembering what is important to them, and valuing what is most important to them (Thompson, 2009).
Our communication styles and methods are being stretched to the limit by email, technology, lack of time and demands on our ability to do so much in our days.
Email – not only should you be returning emails in a timely way, but you need to set the context each and every time of why the email is important and what information it is that you want to deliver.
Cell phones – the ring tones that are available now are fun outside of the office, networking situations, client lunches, etc. Put them on vibrate or shut them off. Take and make calls when you are with people sparingly. Most people are not interested in listening to your conversations no matter how stimulating you think they might be.
Returning phone calls –Whether you think you have time to return the call or not, find out what people need, make sure you are clear on whether you can help them or not and then get back to your own work. People who return phone calls are trusted and respected. You do not need to make the calls long.
Handshake, body language and eye contact – ask a friend to shake hands with you and then ask them to give you feedback. Firm is good. Learn to look at a person when they
are speaking. A good part of our non verbal communication is our body – watch what your body is saying about you.
Business cards – get one and have them with you at ALL times. Do include an address, email and phone number. Name and what you do – a title is very good. If your company does not provide a business card, get one for yourself anyway.
2. Describe the role of interpersonal communication both as a manager and as an employee. What specific techniques have you used to overcome barriers to communication? Be sure to specify your role in the communication.

Peer response
The purpose of dissemination strategies are to spread knowledge of evidence-based interventions so that it can become more widespread in practice. To me, the most favorable dissemination strategy that I would choose to use is social media. I am 27 years old and was born in an era of seeing how influential social media can be. On average, 4.48 billion people are on social media and check it regularly (Undiscovered Maine, n.d., para. 8). I have seen firsthand how when a friend or someone I know starts doing a new trend their response is typically that they saw it on Instagram, TikTok, etc. We could use social media and its impact for good by spreading evidence-based practice findings in healthcare to a large audience of variety.
The second dissemination strategy that I would be inclined to use is press releases. Press releases are a great way to communicated evidence-based findings to a large group of people. Additionally, having a press release on topics enhances reliability to most viewers if you are on a trusted and professional news outlet. Going along with a benefit of social media, in today’s climate, impactful press release videos will generally now find themselves viral on social media, so even people who do not watch the news will eventually view the press conference.
Dissemination Strategies I Would Be Least Inclined to Use
The dissemination strategy that I would be the least inclined to use is e-mail. While e-mails are a quick way to get information across, they do not have as big as an impact as many other strategies do. Most of the time, people generally just scroll through e-mails and delete things that do not require immediate action because their inboxes are probably filled with things that do. Additionally, it is incredibly difficult to convey emotion over e-mail, so some information and passion behind the message being conveyed are susceptible to being lost in translation. Lastly, e-mail is not as accessible to a larger group of people because only people who receive the e-mail would be able to see the information provided.
Another dissemination strategy that I would not be inclined to use is the use of poster presentations. While poster presentations may provide a bit of hard work and personalization, they are not as effective as other strategies. Poster presentations may come across as informal and may not convey the urgency of the message being conveyed. Additionally, the poster will just stay a poster that will probably stay in one area or may even be thrown away. In this day and age, if you want a large people to view something, it will need to be digital so that it stays in a place forever and is able to be spread to other people and saved to their personal devices for reference and storage.

Discus the Effective communication in workplace (updated 2023).docx
Effective communication
in the workplace is crucial for the smooth functioning of an organization and the achievement of collective goals. It involves the exchange of information, ideas, and feedback in a clear, concise, and meaningful manner.
Here are some key aspects to discuss regarding effective communication in the workplace:
1.Clear and Open Communication Channels: Organizations should establish clear communication channels that allow employees to express their thoughts, concerns, and ideas. This can be done through various means, such as face-to-face meetings, email, instant messaging platforms, or project management tools. Transparent and accessible communication channels foster collaboration, trust, and a sense of belonging among employees.
2.Active Listening: Effective communication involves active listening, where individuals pay attention to both verbal and nonverbal cues from the speaker. Active listening shows respect, empathy, and a willingness to understand the message being conveyed. It helps prevent misunderstandings, allows for better problem-solving, and promotes a positive work environment.
3.Clarity and Conciseness: Clear and concise communication helps to ensure that messages are easily understood and minimize the chances of misinterpretation. It involves using simple and direct language, avoiding jargon or technical terms, and organizing information in a logical and structured manner. Being mindful of the receiver’s knowledge and background can help tailor the communication appropriately.

3. Reflection on my Presentation Preparation
a. The approach for planning my presentation
Preparation of presentation is typically overwhelming experience and it entails fundamental strategies as well as steps that assist in breaking down them into more manageable tasks (Brett, 2019).
I analyzed the audience I was to address in bid to obtain certain fundamental information pertaining to their backgrounds, values, as well as interests, which consequently enable me to understand what the audience members might imagine from my presentation (Harris et al., 2017). Consequently I selected an appropriate topic that is of interest to the audience and me. It is typically much easier to deliver a presentation that the audience finds pertinent, as well as more enjoyable to research.
Thirdly, I defined the objectives of the presentation in a single concise statement. Moreover, the objective mainly specifies exactly those things audiences require to learn from my presentation (Brett, 2019). Moreover, based on the objective coupled with the level of the content on the period I will undertake to deliver my entire in regard delivering background knowledge of the audience.
b. Rehearsing for the presentation
Rehearsal mainly entails praxis, which typically refers to the process of putting theoretical knowledge into practice via a steady cycle of conceptualizing the connotation of the things that can be learned from experience. I rehearsed through undertaking analysis and synthesis by incorporating stimulated experience (Brett, 2019).
During this analysis and synthesis period, i broke down the rehearsal into diverse chunks for analysis, worked with the relatively smaller areas, and consequently strive for the synthesis (Harris et al., 2017). I practiced diverse means of really expressing ideas by determining the best one. Moreover, I used practiced different styles of delivery like speaking either relatively faster or slower.
C.Better suggestions for the preparation in the future
For relatively better preparation in the future, I will utilize my stimulated experience by recording my work to view it later as well as having a trusted friend to assess and offer appropriate feedback.
4. Using Feedback to Refine my Communication
a) Feedback received on my verbal communication from the week 8 Discussion Board
It was noted that I need to improve on my non verbal communication cues, my listening skill as well as my clarification of facts. Non-verbal communication is deemed to be imperative for effective communication and it includes tonal variation, voice quality, making eye contact with the audience, as well as maintaining suit.

Executive Summary
Purpose and method of this report
Teamwork requires a set of interdependent activities, performed by individuals who collaborates with each other toward a common objective. Teams are expected to work expeditiously and efficiently with other members of the team to carry out the project, and precisely summarize the results in a report. The series of actions to achieve this result can be divided into three categories: the transition process, action processes, and interpersonal processes. The purpose of this report are to:
· Recommend ways that a team can facilitate effective team writing in a report.
· Determine the procedures and techniques by which team work gets done.
· Three approaches virtual teams can interact successfully increasing team effectiveness, while avoiding misunderstandings.
We each conducted a survey with our classmates to discover types of methods and structures needed for effective teamwork in writing a report. Such as: sharing files, scheduling meetings, communicating, relationship building, and brainstorming. Each team contained up to ten members selected from the University of Houston – Downtown.
Finding and conclusions
We used multiple respondents to ensure the study and research of our data were valid, and to over some common methods bias. Many of the respondents believed that effective teamwork requires that people work as a cohesive unit.
The result of this study shows that writing a compelling team report involves individuals to collaborate with others by concentrating their efforts in a common direction and achieving an outcome that can only be reached by working together. Individual members must learn how to coordinate their actions, and any strains and stresses in interpersonal relations need to be identified and resolved (Cannon-Bowers et al., 1995; Cohen & Bailey, 1997)
Recommendations for effective team writing on a report

There are numerous theories that attempt to explain the development .docx
There are numerous theories that attempt to explain the development and manifestation of psychological disorders. Some researchers hold that certain disorders result from learned behaviors (behavioral theory), while other researchers believe that there is a genetic or biological basis to psychological disorders (medical model), while still others hold that psychological disorders stem from unresolved unconscious conflict (psychoanalytic theory). How would each of these theoretical viewpoints explain anxiety disorders? Does one explain the development and manifestation of anxiety disorders better than the others?

There are multifaceted ethical issues relating to international inve.docx
There are multifaceted ethical issues relating to international investments. One aspect relates to human rights. Most Latin American governments have constitutions that mandate health care as a human right, yet some of these countries provide poor health care for the majority of their population.
During the 1980s, the general populace of these countries deteriorated, even though several Latin American countries developed strategies to reposition medical personnel and services to rural areas. Throughout this time, many international donors provided assistance; however they did so with imposed conditions. An example of this constrained assistance was the World Bank, which imposed restrictions that included privatization of health care, as well as required limitations on universal access.
Did the World Bank and other international donors act responsibly and ethically in constraining their humanitarian assistance? Who has the responsibility for the health care of the Latin American people? Is it a reasonable and socially responsible practice to offer international assistance in exchange for an opportunity to shape a country's political and/or social system? Why or why not?

I analyzed the audience I was to address in bid to obtain certain fundamental information pertaining to their backgrounds, values, as well as interests, which consequently enable me to understand what the audience members might imagine from my presentation (Harris et al., 2017). Consequently I selected an appropriate topic that is of interest to the audience and me. It is typically much easier to deliver a presentation that the audience finds pertinent, as well as more enjoyable to research.
Thirdly, I defined the objectives of the presentation in a single concise statement. Moreover, the objective mainly specifies exactly those things audiences require to learn from my presentation (Brett, 2019). Moreover, based on the objective coupled with the level of the content on the period I will undertake to deliver my entire in regard delivering background knowledge of the audience.
b. Rehearsing for the presentation
Rehearsal mainly entails praxis, which typically refers to the process of putting theoretical knowledge into practice via a steady cycle of conceptualizing the connotation of the things that can be learned from experience. I rehearsed through undertaking analysis and synthesis by incorporating stimulated experience (Brett, 2019).
During this analysis and synthesis period, i broke down the rehearsal into diverse chunks for analysis, worked with the relatively smaller areas, and consequently strive for the synthesis (Harris et al., 2017). I practiced diverse means of really expressing ideas by determining the best one. Moreover, I used practiced different styles of delivery like speaking either relatively faster or slower.
C.Better suggestions for the preparation in the future
For relatively better preparation in the future, I will utilize my stimulated experience by recording my work to view it later as well as having a trusted friend to assess and offer appropriate feedback.
4. Using Feedback to Refine my Communication
a) Feedback received on my verbal communication from the week 8 Discussion Board
It was noted that I need to improve on my non verbal communication cues, my listening skill as well as my clarification of facts. Non-verbal communication is deemed to be imperative for effective communication and it includes tonal variation, voice quality, making eye contact with the audience, as well as maintaining suit.

Executive Summary
Purpose and method of this report
Teamwork requires a set of interdependent activities, performed by individuals who collaborates with each other toward a common objective. Teams are expected to work expeditiously and efficiently with other members of the team to carry out the project, and precisely summarize the results in a report. The series of actions to achieve this result can be divided into three categories: the transition process, action processes, and interpersonal processes. The purpose of this report are to:
· Recommend ways that a team can facilitate effective team writing in a report.
· Determine the procedures and techniques by which team work gets done.
· Three approaches virtual teams can interact successfully increasing team effectiveness, while avoiding misunderstandings.
We each conducted a survey with our classmates to discover types of methods and structures needed for effective teamwork in writing a report. Such as: sharing files, scheduling meetings, communicating, relationship building, and brainstorming. Each team contained up to ten members selected from the University of Houston – Downtown.
Finding and conclusions
We used multiple respondents to ensure the study and research of our data were valid, and to over some common methods bias. Many of the respondents believed that effective teamwork requires that people work as a cohesive unit.
The result of this study shows that writing a compelling team report involves individuals to collaborate with others by concentrating their efforts in a common direction and achieving an outcome that can only be reached by working together. Individual members must learn how to coordinate their actions, and any strains and stresses in interpersonal relations need to be identified and resolved (Cannon-Bowers et al., 1995; Cohen & Bailey, 1997)
Recommendations for effective team writing on a report
1. According to Forsyth (2009), “Interpret and evaluate the team’s mission, including identifying of its main tasks as well as the operative environmental conditions and team ...

There are numerous theories that attempt to explain the development and manifestation of psychological disorders. Some researchers hold that certain disorders result from learned behaviors (behavioral theory), while other researchers believe that there is a genetic or biological basis to psychological disorders (medical model), while still others hold that psychological disorders stem from unresolved unconscious conflict (psychoanalytic theory). How would each of these theoretical viewpoints explain anxiety disorders? Does one explain the development and manifestation of anxiety disorders better than the others?

There are multifaceted ethical issues relating to international inve.docx
There are multifaceted ethical issues relating to international investments. One aspect relates to human rights. Most Latin American governments have constitutions that mandate health care as a human right, yet some of these countries provide poor health care for the majority of their population.
During the 1980s, the general populace of these countries deteriorated, even though several Latin American countries developed strategies to reposition medical personnel and services to rural areas. Throughout this time, many international donors provided assistance; however they did so with imposed conditions. An example of this constrained assistance was the World Bank, which imposed restrictions that included privatization of health care, as well as required limitations on universal access.
Did the World Bank and other international donors act responsibly and ethically in constraining their humanitarian assistance? Who has the responsibility for the health care of the Latin American people? Is it a reasonable and socially responsible practice to offer international assistance in exchange for an opportunity to shape a country's political and/or social system? Why or why not?

TCO 5. There has been a bumper crop of politicians who have been revealed to be less than upstanding citizens. John Edwards, a former senator who was in the running for the 2008 presidential nomination, and who said family values were at his core, was revealed to have had an affair with a campaign worker, at the same time his wife was battling cancer. Similarly, New York governor Eliot Spitzer, a married, moralizing crusader for laws against sexual tourism, was caught in an escort service "sting", and forced to resign. These are only two of several recent examples of politicians who have celebrity status, and flaunted the social norms of decency.
Apply the course concepts of the
dark side of self-esteem
and
moral hypocrisy

TCO 6. The Beltway sniper attacks in the Washington D.C. area, in 2002, completely transfixed American consciousness for the three weeks in October, when a pair of armed killers roamed through the Capital region, ambushing and killing 10 people, and wounding three others. As time progressed and law enforcement officials were having little luck in solving the case, tensions and apprehensiveness spread far beyond the area where the killings were concentrated. Even though there was never any hard evidence that the killers were headed in their direction, the citizens of towns and cities a hundred miles away were terrorized by the notion that the killers were about to show up in their communities.
Discuss this with respect to the
effects of suggestibility
that Myers writes about in Chapter 6. Be specific as to what aspects of suggestibility apply to the case.

TCO's 4 and 12. At the 2008 Summer Olympics, Cuban Taekwondo athlete Angel Matos fell to the mat, after being hit by his opponent. He became incensed at the referee, who disqualified him for exceeding the one-minute time-out allowed for an injury. Matos angrily disputed the call, physically pushing a judge and then pushing and kicking the referee in the face. He spat on the mat and was escorted out by officials. The World Taekwondo Federation immediately banned Matos for life, and the IOC took away his bronze medal.
This is a two part question:
a. What is it about the fundamental nature and structure of the Olympics that helps explain why this situation occurred?
b. This example contains evidence of both hostile aggression and instrumental aggression. Which part of the example involves hostile aggression, and which part of the example involves instrumental aggression? Explain your reasoning.

Theodore Dalrymple How—and How Not—to Love Mankind A.docx
Theodore Dalrymple
How—and How Not—to Love Mankind
Almost every intellectual claims to have the welfare of humanity, and particularly the
welfare of the poor, at heart: but since no mass murder takes place without its
perpetrators alleging that they are acting for the good of mankind, philanthropic
sentiment can plainly take a multiplicity of forms.
Summer 2001
Almost every intellectual claims to have the welfare of humanity, and particularly the
welfare of the poor, at heart: but since no mass murder takes place without its
perpetrators alleging that they are acting for the good of mankind, philanthropic
sentiment can plainly take a multiplicity of forms.
Two great European writers of the nineteenth century, Ivan Turgenev and Karl Marx,
illustrate this diversity with vivid clarity. Both were born in 1818 and died in 1883, and
their lives paralleled each other almost preternaturally in many other respects as well.
They nevertheless came to view human life and suffering in very different, indeed
irreconcilable, ways—through different ends of the telescope, as it were. Turgenev saw
human beings as individuals always endowed with consciousness, character, feelings,
and moral strengths and weaknesses; Marx saw them always as snowflakes in an
avalanche, as instances of general forces, as not yet fully human because utterly
conditioned by their circumstances. Where Turgenev saw men, Marx saw classes of men;
where Turgenev saw people, Marx saw the People. These two ways of looking at the
world persist into our own time and profoundly affect, for better or for worse, the
solutions we propose to our social problems.
The resemblances between the careers of these men begin with their attendance at Berlin
University at overlapping times, where both were deeply affected—even intoxicated—by
the prevailing Hegelianism. As a result, both considered careers as university teachers of
philosophy, but neither ever held a university post. They had many acquaintances in
http://www.city-journal.org/index.html
common in Berlin, including Mikhail Bakunin, the Russian aristocrat who later became a
revolutionary anarchist, the philosopher Bruno Bauer, and the radical poet Georg
Herwegh. They shared a carelessness with money, perhaps because they were both born
into easy circumstances and therefore assumed that money would never be a problem.
Both started their writing careers as romantic poets, though more of Turgenev’s poetry
than Marx’s was published.
Their literary influences and tastes were similar. Each read widely in the Greek and Latin
classics; each could quote Shakespeare in the original. Both learned Spanish in order to
read Calderón. (Turgenev, of course, also learned it to speak the native language of the
great, but unsatisfactory, love of his life, the famous prima donna Pauline Viardot.) The
two men were in Brussels at the outbreak of the 1848 revolution against the July
monarch.

theme throughout this course has been that human and social services.docx
theme throughout this course has been that human and social services professionals constantly apply theories and processes to address issues and challenges. As a social change agent, leader, and advocate, you should be able to apply relevant theories and processes to implement and support change on a local and global scale. As always, codes of ethics should provide guidance as you attempt to bring about change. As the final step in the development of your strategic plan, you will develop an action plan for each year of the strategic plan. For example, your plan might start off with strategic goals at the local level with plans to take these goals national or international in following years of the strategic plan.
To prepare:
Review the feedback from your Instructor regarding the components of your strategic plan in Weeks 3, 4, and 6–8.
You should make any changes based on the feedback you received. You will include these elements as a whole this week for your final strategic plan.
Finally this week, consider what actions you will take each year of the strategic plan.
The Assignment (15–22 pages):
Guidelines for each section of the Assignment are provided below.
Part I. The Fundamentals (3–4 pages):
The fundamentals of a strategic plan include identifying the core values, mission, and vision, which represent the organizational identification (ID). The Assignment requires you to develop the organizational ID for the agency, organization, or community for which you will develop a strategic plan.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Embracing GenAI - A Strategic Imperative
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

However, this will give you an idea of the formatting and the detail I am looking for.) Concepts in Organizational Communication I. Introduction A. Opening: Given that our purpose here at Stamper Consulting is to produce the world’s best consulting services tour customers. B. Discuss issues within the organization and why I am going to submit this proposal. In order to do so, I hereby propose a new communication structure for our organization that will lay the interpersonal foundation to make all of this possible. C. Thesis: The following concepts are important for successful communication of this sort: nonverbal communication, cultural sensitivity, active listening, conflict resolution, the tactical and
- 2. strategic facets of communication, being ethical and positive, being technologically savvy; what is more, this will all be implemented through training and reinforcement. II. Nonverbal communication: The first concept that is important for successful communication within an organizational setting is nonverbal communication. A. Supporting evidence: According to a study by Graham and Jennings of Wichita State and Unruh of National Institute for Management, over 50 percent of respondents felt that their supervisors’ verbal communication messages were frequently disaffirmed by their nonverbal cues. This often caused miscommunication, distrust, and frustration (Graham, Unruh, & Jennings, 1991). 1. Explanation: It is important for successful communication for a number of reasons. First and foremost, regardless of one’s feelings on the subject, the fact is that the nonverbal aspect of communication is a reality. Further, it is a source of major significance in terms of the impressions and unwritten messages that people constantly read into day-to-day communication. That is how human interaction has always been and, as they say, this truth is not going away anytime soon. In particular, consistency between a person’s verbal and nonverbal communication carries credibility with others, signaling a certain element of trustworthiness. 2. So what? When a person’s nonverbal messages, therefore, match those of his or her verbal messages, others view this consistency positively, as being credible. This being the case, a control of nonverbal communication equates to an increased ability to accomplish whatever goal one seeks, large or small, by the act
- 3. of communicating in the first place. B. How I would implement this within the organization: Being better informed regarding nonverbal communications and on how to decode them would significantly increase productivity and morale (Graham, Unruh, & Jennings, 1991). 1. Explanation: Research shows, then, that holding seminars on sending and receiving unspoken messages would significantly add. III. Cultural sensitivity: Cultural sensitivity in the workplace is a concept that is important for successful communication across interpersonal borders. A. Supporting evidence: 1. Explanation 2. So what? B. Implementation. IV. Active listening: For accurate understanding of ideas and for building interpersonal relationships, active listening is a concept that is important for successful communication in both the individual and organizational setting. It strengthens the team and ensures the integrity of the information flow. A.
- 4. Supporting evidence 1. Explanation: In other words, those who used the method of paraphrasing as an active listening skill, were determined to be better-liked than those who did not utilize this skill. 2. So what? With so many cogs churning within the machinery that is a company, active listening, then, acts as a lubricant that reduces friction inherent in the nature of human interaction, and leads to a healthier, more enjoyable workplace. B. Implementation V. Conflict resolution: Invariably, there will be bumps in the road. Even good intelligent people will have strong opinions and clashing ideas or interests. Conflict resolution, then, is important for instances such as these, described in academia as “inevitable, difficult, and important” (Oore, Leiter,& LeBlanc, 2015, p. 306) A. Supporting evidence: 1. Explanation: 2. So what? B. Implementation VI. Strategic facets of communication:
- 5. Words matter, and the as ideas are generated within and without this organization, they must be clear, effective, and attractive. Therefore, they must be carefully planned and competently performed—which means strategic communication (Kreps, 2011. Chapter One Introduction). A. Supporting evidence: 1. Explanation: 2. So what? B. Implementation VII. Conclusion A. Thesis statement: Indeed, while some claim that communication comes to most of us and does not require work, there are a number of concepts that require continued emphasis if the internal and external communications of Stamper Consulting are to be superior. B. Synthesis: The ideas of the future belong to those who can conceive and convey them in an effective, appealing manner. With respect, we ask that you work with us to accomplish precisely that.
