Overview In this assignment, you will evaluate a current organizational structure and recommend structural changes that can help address the concerns the organization identified regarding collaboration, communication, and autonomy. Scenario You work for an organization that has traditionally been very formalized, and managers have had a very broad span of control over direct reports from multiple departments and functions. This worked well in the past; managers were able to oversee a high number of direct reports because there were many rules and regulations dictating how their work should be performed. However, there were downsides. Employee talent was underused, and there wasn’t a strong team culture, as most work was done independently according to standard operating processes. Recently, the organization has been shifting to less formalized working structures to support more creative, innovative work and provide employees with more autonomy. While employees are happy with the purpose of these new changes, managers are feeling overwhelmed, and employees are feeling undersupported. This has impacted function-specific work the most, because in the past, managers didn’t need to understand in-depth, function-specific tasks (such as the technical aspects of graphic design work or the intricacies of project management). Instead, they had the ability to rely on rules, regulations, and standard operating processes. Employees have also noticed a lack of communication around current projects, which has led to a lack of updated information and duplicated work across management teams. You have been asked to work with the human resources department to recommend a new organizational structure that addresses these identified management and communication concerns. Prompt Use the Module Six Assignment Template located in the Guidelines for Submission section to create an updated organizational structure chart for the organization. Then, in a separate Word document, write a brief explanation for your recommended changes and how they will impact both organizational communication and overall team dynamics. Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria: Updated Organizational Structure Chart : Create an updated organizational structure chart that addresses management and communication concerns. Explanation of Changes : Explain your reasoning for why you made the changes you did to the company’s organizational structure. Include how your changes differ from the original and why you believe they would benefit the organization. Impact on Organizational Communication : Describe the impact these changes will have on the company’s overall organizational communication. Impact on Team Communication : Describe the impact these changes will have on the company’s overall team communication and reporting structure.

Review the following scenario:
Assume that you have recently been hired as the director of continuous improvement of a company. You are an outside hire with limited history of the firm and personal capital at the firm, and you are responsible for lean production, total quality management (TQM), six sigma, and best practice implementation.
Lean production means doing more with less, such as less inventory, fewer workers, or less space. A recent trade in quality management is lean six sigma (also known as lean sigma) that integrates six sigma and lean production.
The capacity for which you were hired has existed for three years with a direct line of report to the vice-president of operations and dotted line of report to the head of information technology (IT), the chief information officer (CIO), and the director of internal controls and audit. You are the second person to fill in this position. You have a team of internal consultants; half of your team has six sigma black belt or equivalent capabilities with the remainder having a solid understanding of operations and IT. You also have a budget for two external vendor resources.
You have taken six months to familiarize yourself with the organization and its people, mission, goals, strategy, and structure. In this time, you have also evaluated current operations. At the end of this period, you are assigned to deliver a report identifying the three most promising avenues for achieving best practices within the company. You have already been told that the company suffers from both aging and complex information systems and that your recommendation must include a major upgrade of those systems. The executive officers anticipate major investments in IT over the next several years. Your best practice implementations, coupled with new technology, must be measurable in terms of speed, quality, productivity, and efficiency or other key performance indicators that you identify in your report.
For this assignment, you will choose a company with which you are familiar. You are encouraged to choose a company for which you currently work or have worked, but you may choose some other firm if you believe it will be a compelling analysis.
You may choose one area of the company, such as a manufacturing plant or product design, to focus on if you can make a strong case. Your recommendations should have the following features.
Repeatable: If you “fix” three things in a manufacturing plant, you should be able to tackle the “next” three in iteration.
Scalable: If they work in one plant, they should work in all of them.
Replicable: Your process for improvement should be repeatable in different, disparate parts of the organization.
This is a key initiative at the “C” level, and your recommendation will reach the board of directors.

WRITING I ASSIGNMENT SHEETRhetorical Strategy Options· proces.docx
WRITING I ASSIGNMENT SHEET
Rhetorical Strategy Options:
· process
· cause, effect, cause & effect
· compare, contrast, or compare & contrast
· classification/division.
Writing Topics:
The last page or two of each rhetorical strategy chapter provides a list of potential. Since you must write a college-level essay, not all of the topics on those pages will work for this assignment, so if you have reservations about one of the topics, please ask me.
You may choose to write a variation on one of those topics, or you may perform a google search for ‘process essay topics,’ ‘cause and effect essay topic,’ et cetera. Allow me to approve your topic to make sure you can develop it using your chosen rhetorical strategy.
Composition Requirements
· Your essay must have at least five well-developed paragraphs.
· It must have between 950 – 1000 words.
· The introduction must have an attention-getting hook and effectively introduce your thesis statement, the LAST sentence of the introduction.
· Each body paragraph must have an easily identifiable topic sentence (generally the first or second sentence of the body paragraph), substantial major and minor details, and transitional words or phrases indicative of the rhetorical strategy you have chosen.
· (Remember; each rhetorical strategy has its own set of common transitional words or phrases.) While you must indicate in your heading which rhetorical strategy you chose, I should have no problem determining the rhetorical strategy as I read.
· You must format your essay using MLA style.
· Be sure to use one-inch margins all the way around (Word default), true double spacing throughout your entire document, Times New Roman, 12 point font size, and an inserted page number, not header, preceded by your last name and one space.
· Please see the sample MLA document or the MLA websites listed in Blackboard if you do not know how to format an MLA style essay.
· If your instructor requires you to cite a source, you must use quotation marks around the cited material and include an in-text citation following the quoted or paraphrased material.
· The in-text citation must correspond to a full source citation included on a work(s) cited page.
A Word about Plagiarism
· If you submit someone else’s words or change only a few words or copy someone else’s ideas without providing a parenthetical citation and quotation marks where applicable and a corresponding work(s) cited page, you will receive – at the least – a zero for your plagiarism.

This document discusses organizational design in public and private organizations. It will examine the differences and similarities between how public and private organizations make design decisions. It will consider how these sectors can learn from each other regarding design. The document will also investigate how strategic planning informs design changes and how organizations approach managing the design process to ensure buy-in. Key topics that will be covered include organizational design models, motivations for design decisions, and ensuring roles and collaboration are considered alongside structure.

Objectives
This course project will help you utilize the concepts in this class, by doing a thorough analytical and in depth review and comparison of “change” in two companies. You will accomplish this project through
5 deliverables
in the course:
Proposing and having approved your project topic. (2 references) (Week 1)
Researching two publicly traded companies, and comparing and contrasting their methods of handling a significant change in their organizations. Analyze and write about images of change in those organizations. (4 new references) (Week 2)
Diagnosing the change in those companies and their barriers and resistors. (4 new references) (Week 4)
Analyzing and creating applications for a change project communication based on the change in one of your researched companies. (2 new references) (Week 6)
Utilize multiple references using online research, Keller Graduate School of Management’s live or online libraries, perhaps your public library for print resources, and any other primary or secondary research source you feel would be appropriate for this project. You will complete an annotated bibliography at the end of the term of strong references to support your findings. At least 12 total references used in the project. (All term – bibliography due Week 7).
Important Note!
Note! Keller Librarians are a wealth of information – and will help you find sources. Using the chat feature you can talk to them about what you need to find, and they will teach you how to use the library!
Do not use Wikipedia as a reference source.
If you find useful information from Wikipedia, triangulate your research and find other, more credible source(s) which provide the same (or better) information, and then utilize the information from that more credible source in your paper and reference page/bibliography.
Your project will have five separate parts, due throughout the term. It will incorporate the learning of the course as we go through – and hopefully will cement the process for you. At the end of the term, your final exam will contain 4 randomly selected Change Management questions based on YOUR Course Project companies and research findings as related to the course content, as well as other questions (multiple choice and essay) which are not specifically related to your project (but are related to Change Management course content!).
Thus, the initial “topic selection” where you pick the companies you will research throughout the term is critical for you to ensure you are interested enough in the material that it will keep you engaged throughout the term.
Here are some examples:
Example:
Both Ford and GM experienced serious issues during the pre, during and post TARP period causing them to restructure and change how they do business. Each of them reacted to these pressures differently. A paper comparing and contrasting the way both companies reacted to this pressure would be very interesting and easy to set up in an organized fashion. Further, utilizi.

You are an outside hire with limited history of the firm and personal capital at the firm, and you are responsible for lean production, total quality management (TQM), six sigma, and best practice implementation.
Lean production means doing more with less, such as less inventory, fewer workers, or less space. A recent trade in quality management is lean six sigma (also known as lean sigma) that integrates six sigma and lean production.
The capacity for which you were hired has existed for three years with a direct line of report to the vice-president of operations and dotted line of report to the head of information technology (IT), the chief information officer (CIO), and the director of internal controls and audit. You are the second person to fill in this position. You have a team of internal consultants; half of your team has six sigma black belt or equivalent capabilities with the remainder having a solid understanding of operations and IT. You also have a budget for two external vendor resources.
You have taken six months to familiarize yourself with the organization and its people, mission, goals, strategy, and structure. In this time, you have also evaluated current operations. At the end of this period, you are assigned to deliver a report identifying the three most promising avenues for achieving best practices within the company. You have already been told that the company suffers from both aging and complex information systems and that your recommendation must include a major upgrade of those systems. The executive officers anticipate major investments in IT over the next several years. Your best practice implementations, coupled with new technology, must be measurable in terms of speed, quality, productivity, and efficiency or other key performance indicators that you identify in your report.
For this assignment, you will choose a company with which you are familiar. You are encouraged to choose a company for which you currently work or have worked, but you may choose some other firm if you believe it will be a compelling analysis.
You may choose one area of the company, such as a manufacturing plant or product design, to focus on if you can make a strong case. Your recommendations should have the following features.
· Repeatable: If you “fix” three things in a manufacturing plant, you should be able to tackle the “next” three in iteration.
· Scalable: If they work in one plant, they should work in all of them.
· Replicable: Your process for improvement should be repeatable in different, disparate parts of the organization.
This is a key initiative at the “C” level, and your recommendation will reach the board of directors.
Your paper must include the following sections:
1. Strategic Overview: (1 page)
Provide a brief description of the following elements:
a. ...
WRITING I ASSIGNMENT SHEETRhetorical Strategy Options· proces.docx
WRITING I ASSIGNMENT SHEET
Rhetorical Strategy Options:
· process
· cause, effect, cause & effect
· compare, contrast, or compare & contrast
· classification/division.
Writing Topics:
The last page or two of each rhetorical strategy chapter provides a list of potential. Since you must write a college-level essay, not all of the topics on those pages will work for this assignment, so if you have reservations about one of the topics, please ask me.
You may choose to write a variation on one of those topics, or you may perform a google search for ‘process essay topics,’ ‘cause and effect essay topic,’ et cetera. Allow me to approve your topic to make sure you can develop it using your chosen rhetorical strategy.
Composition Requirements
· Your essay must have at least five well-developed paragraphs.
· It must have between 950 – 1000 words.
· The introduction must have an attention-getting hook and effectively introduce your thesis statement, the LAST sentence of the introduction.
· Each body paragraph must have an easily identifiable topic sentence (generally the first or second sentence of the body paragraph), substantial major and minor details, and transitional words or phrases indicative of the rhetorical strategy you have chosen.
· (Remember; each rhetorical strategy has its own set of common transitional words or phrases.) While you must indicate in your heading which rhetorical strategy you chose, I should have no problem determining the rhetorical strategy as I read.
· You must format your essay using MLA style.
· Be sure to use one-inch margins all the way around (Word default), true double spacing throughout your entire document, Times New Roman, 12 point font size, and an inserted page number, not header, preceded by your last name and one space.
· Please see the sample MLA document or the MLA websites listed in Blackboard if you do not know how to format an MLA style essay.
· If your instructor requires you to cite a source, you must use quotation marks around the cited material and include an in-text citation following the quoted or paraphrased material.
· The in-text citation must correspond to a full source citation included on a work(s) cited page.
A Word about Plagiarism
· If you submit someone else’s words or change only a few words or copy someone else’s ideas without providing a parenthetical citation and quotation marks where applicable and a corresponding work(s) cited page, you will receive – at the least – a zero for your plagiarism.

This document outlines the requirements for a semester-long course project analyzing change in two publicly traded companies. The project involves five parts: 1) proposing and gaining approval for the topic and companies, 2) researching the companies and comparing how they handled significant organizational changes using models of change from course readings, 3) diagnosing the changes and barriers in each company, 4) developing a communication plan for one company's change, and 5) creating an annotated bibliography of all references used. The goal is for students to apply course concepts to real-world examples of change management through in-depth research of two companies undergoing similar changes.
Success and failure in organization design
The document discusses common mistakes made when reorganizing a company's structure. It identifies seven key mistakes: 1) not defining what the reorganization aims to achieve, 2) structuring around specific personnel rather than business needs, 3) revealing redesign details prematurely, compromising engagement, 4) failing to establish a formal change management and communications plan, 5) rushing implementation without proper planning, 6) not addressing cultural impacts, and 7) lacking post-implementation evaluation. The document stresses the importance of clear goals, separating structure from personnel, confidentiality, communication, thorough planning, culture, and evaluation.
CH.3 OB.pptx
The document discusses organizational structure and organization design. It describes four common types of organizational structures - functional, divisional, flatarchy, and matrix. It also lists some benefits and drawbacks of organization design. Finally, it discusses three common triggers for organization design changes: external or internal changes impacting the business, setting new strategies or goals, and an existing design no longer working effectively.

Team Project
For this project, you will work in your assigned team. Each team will assign a project manager.
The Team Project is due in WBS 8 and the Team Project presentation is due in WBS Level 9.
Instructions for submission of all parts of the project are listed within those Levels.
Background Information
You have just been hired as the new chief information officer for a mid-size university. The
university has recently joined a group of other universities as part of a new alliance. This new
alliance requires the university to revisit its IT strategy, operations, policies, and budget to
optimize the use of Information Technology assets and resources. Major IT projects are
expected to take place in the future. One of these major projects is the implementation of a
uniform enterprise resources planning system to serve the university’s academic and
administration needs. This is a significant category of project that typically takes 1 to 2 years or
more to complete. Even more importantly, you observe that the current organization is
inadequate for implementing this major undertaking. This project will therefore involve almost
every single unit in the organization. Not only will you need to update the organizational
structure, but you will also need to train users on the new system, and work with every single
department to convert their existing data into the new system and make sure that all these
systems are now integrated.
In your first university executive steering committee meeting, you were told:
1. IT-related projects are hurting the university budget. The university has been struggling to
complete projects on time and within budget. Statistics show that:
24% of all projects were cancelled before they are completed,
44% of projects were late, over budget, and/ or missed meeting performance
requirements
Only 32% of projects were delivered on time and within budget.
2. Another problem is that IT-related projects within university departments and colleges are
not planned and executed in coordination with the Information Technology Division (ITD).
As a result, the ITD is not aware of or cannot support several systems.
3. You also gathered from the meeting that most deans and directors believe it is not
necessary to coordinate with ITD if the money is coming out of their budget. They also
believe that they know better than ITD what systems can better serve their needs.
4. In private, the university told you that the relationship between ITD and some university
departments needed to improve. Your assistant chief information officer has not exactly
been the most courteous when it comes to communication with university deans and
directors.
The Information Technology Division that you head is divided into three units:
1. Application Support,
2. Networking and Communication, and
3. PC support.

Organisation Design 2
This document discusses organization design and factors that lead to success or failure. It notes that organizational structure determines performance and must align with strategy. Successful design includes leadership at all levels, applying wisdom across the organization, effective communication of strategy, and optimizing processes based on indicators. Common failures include not updating structure when strategy changes, having functions focused on short-term results oversee long-term development, and placing the wrong people in roles. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of streamlining design to fit business needs and gaining buy-in for implementation.

Use Access to create a database in which you can store and retrieve information about the Rio Salado Theme Park operating departments, their managers, and their employees.
Create a
new blank database
.
Save the database with the filename
RSC_Theme_Park_Database_MEID.accdb
. Replace “MEID” with your actual MEID.
Structure of the Database
NOTE:
Read the requirements for the database and be sure you understand how it should work before creating your design.
You will need to complete the following:
Create two tables.
Establish table relationships.
Create one form.
Create two queries.
Create one report.
As you work on the project, remember to follow best practices for creating databases as described in your TestOut materials and the online lesson content.
Create the Tables
Tables and their relationships form the backbone of a relational database. In this database, you will create a table for the Rio Salado Theme Park operating departments and their managers, and a table for employees in each department. When creating fields for your tables, it is important to break down your data into the smallest chunks you can (fine granularity) to make it easier to extract data from the database later. Remember to assign the most appropriate data type to each of the fields and that one of the fields in each of your tables must be set as the
Primary Key
using the
AutoNumber
data type. You do not need to enter data records into your tables at this time; you will create a form later in this project for data entry.
Department Table
Create a
table
named
Department Table
. At a minimum, your table should include the following fields:
Department ID
Department Name
Manager First Name
Manager Last Name
Manager Email Address
Manager Phone Number
Employee Table
Create a
table
named
Employee Table
. At a minimum, your table should include the following fields:
Employee ID
Department ID
Employee First Name
Employee Last Name
Employee Date of Hire
Employee Rate of Pay
Establish Table Relationships
Once the design of the tables has been completed, the next step is to
establish relationships
between the tables. You will join the Department Table with the Employee Table on common fields through the following tasks:
Join the
primary key
of the Department Table with the
foreign key
of the Employee Table in a
One-To-Many
relationship.
Enforce referential integrity.
Cascade update related fields.
Cascade delete related records.
Create a Form
Once the tables have been designed and the relationships have been established, it is time to enter data. You will use
one form
to enter and edit data in the two tables:
Create
one form
named
Department Form
that can be used to enter data into both tables.
Insert a row
below the Employee Table subform. Add a
button
in the new row to perform the
Add New Record
action with the text:

You will create new tables that contain information about the Rio Salado Boat and Marine Dealership’s manufacturers and inventory. When creating fields for your tables, it is important to break down your data into the smallest chunks you can (
fine data granularity
) to make it easier to extract data from the database later. You will also need to join the tables on common fields later in the project. For this project, assume a manufacturer can supply the boat dealership with multiple types of boats for the dealership’s inventory.
NOTE:
Remember to assign the most appropriate data type to each of the fields and that one of the fields in each of your tables must be set as the
Primary Key
. You do not need to enter data records into your tables at this time; you will create a form later in this project for data entry.
Manufacturer Contact Table
Create a new
table
named
Manufacturer Contact Table
. At a minimum, your table should include the following fields:
Manufacturer ID
Manufacturer (e.g., Bayliner)
Manufacturer Address
Sales Representative Name
Phone Number
Email Address
Inventory Table
Create a new
table
named
Inventory Table
. At a minimum, your table should include the following fields:
Inventory ID
Manufacturer ID
Boat Type (e.g., Sailboat)
Model Number
Dealer Cost
MSRP (i.e., Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price)
Quantity in Inventory
Establish Table Relationships
Once the design of the tables has been completed, the next step is to
establish relationships
between the tables:
Join the Manufacturer Contact Table with the Inventory Table on common fields.
Enforce referential integrity.
Create a Form
Once the tables have been designed and the relationships have been established, it is time to enter data. Remember that
each field of each record will need to include data
. You will use
one form
to enter and edit data in the two tables.
Create
one form
named
Manufacturer Form
that can be used to enter data into
both
tables.
Use the form to enter a
minimum of four manufacturers
. Include
your name
in one of the records as a Sales Representative for one of the manufacturers.
Use the form to enter
at least two different boat types
for
each
manufacturer.

The ability to extract data from one or more tables is one of the most important functions provi.
ParkinsonsPathophysiology, progression of disease, complication.docx
This document discusses the pathophysiology, progression, complications and treatment options for Parkinson's disease, detached retina, and cerebral vascular accident (CVA). It covers topics such as the development of atheroma, predisposing factors, and treatments for left-sided CVA over 1000 words in APA style.
Parenting Practices among DepressedMothers in the Child Welf.docx
The study analyzed parenting practices among depressed mothers involved with the child welfare system using data from the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being. It found that maternal depression was associated with increased risk of emotional maltreatment and neglect over 36 months. Depression levels remained high over time and emotional maltreatment risk also remained elevated. This implies the need for better identification of mental health needs for mothers in the system and parent training to address positive parenting practices.

Parental Influences
Merging science and business, selective breeding has had a long history. With the advances of modern science, selective breeding animals to enhance and encourage specific characteristics is common.
That being said, what do you think about genetically modifying children based on chosen characteristics, is it acceptable?
The embryo can be modified to resist or remove diseases or even improve intelligence. It can also be modified to determine gender, hair color and other characteristics.

Example Approach to a paragraph with a quote/paraphrase:
1. Identify a passage that includes a key idea from the text to quote/paraphrase:
Robert Hartmann McNamara authored a report on “Homelessness”, which presented that drug use amongst the homeless is prevalent. Research from the 80’s routinely presented a clear connection between homelessness and addiction (1027).
2. Create a topic sentence that connects to or sets up the text support:
A key issue challenging the homeless community, and those working to help the homeless out of their situation, is the rate of addiction to drugs and alcohol.
3. Follow up and develop the idea with your analysis breaking down the point.
4. Notice the set up of the text by attributing the author (sometimes title) of the source.

6. Close out paragraph by addressing the source use and returning back to your main idea for further analysis.
Put it all Together w/ Source Support Highlighted:
(P) A key issue challenging the homeless community, and those working to help the homeless out of their situation, is the high rate of addiction to drugs and alcohol. (I) Substance abuse can cripple one’s ability to maintain a common standard of living. Those suffering in the throes of addiction will struggle to hold a job and often lose connection to the support of their loved ones. This disconnect from a steady income, family, and friends, plus the cost of their addiction, may lead to a life on the streets. Once there, the addiction can further manifest and take hold continuing a dangerous spiral. (E) Robert Hartmann McNamara authored a report on “Homelessness”, which presented that drug use amongst the homeless is prevalent. Research from the 80’s routinely presented a clear connection between homelessness and addiction (1027). This connection can be powerful and extremely challenging to break. (S) Even if addiction did not cause the homeless state, living without shelter, physical and emotional, creates an opportunity for substances to replace security and love. When trying to rise out of a homelessness, the need to kick the addiction becomes paramount to become self-reliant again. The clear relationship between homelessness and substance abuse creates a challenging set of circumstances for both the individual and those attempting to intervene and help.

find two advertisements from any source (newspaper, magazine, tv, etc). One will be an example of the ways that the advertisement perpetuates ideas about race and/or ethnicity in a negative, prejudicial, or stereotypical way. The other should be an advertisement that challenges those prejudicial and stereotypical ways. Compare and contrast the advertisements. What ages, genders, races, etc are present in each advertisement (think back to the discussion of social statuses from chapter 5). What message do those statuses send? What key message is being sent by each advertisement? Summarize a thesis statement of 1-2 sentences that wraps up succinctly one message that can be gleaned from each of the advertisements about race and ethnicity. This will be presented as part of your main body, and the discussion should include discussion of many of these topics: socialization, race and ethnicity, prejudice, discrimination, us/them, and norms and/or values. You will need to bring in the social construction of reality, as well.
Then, find two more advertisements. One should include white models, and one should include individuals of color as the models. Challenge yourself to pick them at random without trying to find the “perfect” example, as we want to see what the average ad does. Explain how this example from the media adds to the social construction of our perceptions of race and ethnicity. Be sure to provide ample evidence of how this process occurs, and the role that the social institution of the media plays in the construction of race and ethnicity. Your discussion should include a clear explanation of what the social construction of our perceptions of race and ethnicity is, and how cultural transmission occurs through the media. This will be presented as part of your main body.
For your concluding paragraph, you will bring together a solid conclusion about race and ethnicity, giving a nice sociological analysis.

This course project will help you utilize the concepts in this class, by doing a thorough analytical and in depth review and comparison of “change” in two companies. You will accomplish this project through 5 deliverables in the course:
1. Proposing and having approved your project topic. (2 references) (Week 1)
2. Researching two publicly traded companies, and comparing and contrasting their methods of handling a significant change in their organizations. Analyze and write about images of change in those organizations. (4 new references) (Week 2)
3. Diagnosing the change in those companies and their barriers and resistors. (4 new references) (Week 4)
4. Analyzing and creating applications for a change project communication based on the change in one of your researched companies. (2 new references) (Week 6)
5. Utilize multiple references using online research, Keller Graduate School of Management’s live or online libraries, perhaps your public library for print resources, and any other primary or secondary research source you feel would be appropriate for this project. You will complete an annotated bibliography at the end of the term of strong references to support your findings. At least 12 total references used in the project. (All term – bibliography due Week 7).
Important Note!
Note! Keller Librarians are a wealth of information – and will help you find sources. Using the chat feature you can talk to them about what you need to find, and they will teach you how to use the library!
Do not use Wikipedia as a reference source. If you find useful information from Wikipedia, triangulate your research and find other, more credible source(s) which provide the same (or better) information, and then utilize the information from that more credible source in your paper and reference page/bibliography.
Your project will have five separate parts, due throughout the term. It will incorporate the learning of the course as we go through – and hopefully will cement the process for you. At the end of the term, your final exam will contain 4 randomly selected Change Management questions based on YOUR Course Project companies and research findings as related to the course content, as well as other questions (multiple choice and essay) which are not specifically related to your project (but are related to Change Management course content!).
Thus, the initial “topic selection” where you pick the companies you will research throughout the term is critical for you to ensure you are interested enough in the material that it will keep you engaged throughout the term.
Here are some examples:
Example: Both Ford and GM experienced serious issues during the pre, during and post TARP period causing them to restructure and change how they do business. Each of them reacted to these pressures differently. A paper comparing and contrasting the way both companies reacted to this pressure would be very interesting and easy to set up in an organized fa.

This document outlines the requirements for a semester-long course project analyzing change in two publicly traded companies. The project involves five parts: 1) proposing and gaining approval for the topic and companies, 2) researching the companies and comparing how they handled significant organizational changes using models of change from course readings, 3) diagnosing the changes and barriers in each company, 4) developing a communication plan for one company's change, and 5) creating an annotated bibliography of all references used. The goal is for students to apply course concepts to real-world examples of change management through in-depth research of two companies undergoing similar changes.
Success and failure in organization design
The document discusses common mistakes made when reorganizing a company's structure. It identifies seven key mistakes: 1) not defining what the reorganization aims to achieve, 2) structuring around specific personnel rather than business needs, 3) revealing redesign details prematurely, compromising engagement, 4) failing to establish a formal change management and communications plan, 5) rushing implementation without proper planning, 6) not addressing cultural impacts, and 7) lacking post-implementation evaluation. The document stresses the importance of clear goals, separating structure from personnel, confidentiality, communication, thorough planning, culture, and evaluation.

Instructions for submission of all parts of the project are listed within those Levels.
Background Information
You have just been hired as the new chief information officer for a mid-size university. The
university has recently joined a group of other universities as part of a new alliance. This new
alliance requires the university to revisit its IT strategy, operations, policies, and budget to
optimize the use of Information Technology assets and resources. Major IT projects are
expected to take place in the future. One of these major projects is the implementation of a
uniform enterprise resources planning system to serve the university’s academic and
administration needs. This is a significant category of project that typically takes 1 to 2 years or
more to complete. Even more importantly, you observe that the current organization is
inadequate for implementing this major undertaking. This project will therefore involve almost
every single unit in the organization. Not only will you need to update the organizational
structure, but you will also need to train users on the new system, and work with every single
department to convert their existing data into the new system and make sure that all these
systems are now integrated.
In your first university executive steering committee meeting, you were told:
1. IT-related projects are hurting the university budget. The university has been struggling to
complete projects on time and within budget. Statistics show that:
24% of all projects were cancelled before they are completed,
44% of projects were late, over budget, and/ or missed meeting performance
requirements
Only 32% of projects were delivered on time and within budget.
2. Another problem is that IT-related projects within university departments and colleges are
not planned and executed in coordination with the Information Technology Division (ITD).
As a result, the ITD is not aware of or cannot support several systems.
3. You also gathered from the meeting that most deans and directors believe it is not
necessary to coordinate with ITD if the money is coming out of their budget. They also
believe that they know better than ITD what systems can better serve their needs.
4. In private, the university told you that the relationship between ITD and some university
departments needed to improve. Your assistant chief information officer has not exactly
been the most courteous when it comes to communication with university deans and
directors.
The Information Technology Division that you head is divided into three units:
1. Application Support,
2. Networking and Communication, and
3. PC support.

Organisation Design 2
This document discusses organization design and factors that lead to success or failure. It notes that organizational structure determines performance and must align with strategy. Successful design includes leadership at all levels, applying wisdom across the organization, effective communication of strategy, and optimizing processes based on indicators. Common failures include not updating structure when strategy changes, having functions focused on short-term results oversee long-term development, and placing the wrong people in roles. The conclusion emphasizes the importance of streamlining design to fit business needs and gaining buy-in for implementation.

Use Access to create a database in which you can store and retrieve information about the Rio Salado Theme Park operating departments, their managers, and their employees.
Create a
new blank database
.
Save the database with the filename
RSC_Theme_Park_Database_MEID.accdb
. Replace “MEID” with your actual MEID.
Structure of the Database
NOTE:
Read the requirements for the database and be sure you understand how it should work before creating your design.
You will need to complete the following:
Create two tables.
Establish table relationships.
Create one form.
Create two queries.
Create one report.
As you work on the project, remember to follow best practices for creating databases as described in your TestOut materials and the online lesson content.
Create the Tables
Tables and their relationships form the backbone of a relational database. In this database, you will create a table for the Rio Salado Theme Park operating departments and their managers, and a table for employees in each department. When creating fields for your tables, it is important to break down your data into the smallest chunks you can (fine granularity) to make it easier to extract data from the database later. Remember to assign the most appropriate data type to each of the fields and that one of the fields in each of your tables must be set as the
Primary Key
using the
AutoNumber
data type. You do not need to enter data records into your tables at this time; you will create a form later in this project for data entry.
Department Table
Create a
table
named
Department Table
. At a minimum, your table should include the following fields:
Department ID
Department Name
Manager First Name
Manager Last Name
Manager Email Address
Manager Phone Number
Employee Table
Create a
table
named
Employee Table
. At a minimum, your table should include the following fields:
Employee ID
Department ID
Employee First Name
Employee Last Name
Employee Date of Hire
Employee Rate of Pay
Establish Table Relationships
Once the design of the tables has been completed, the next step is to
establish relationships
between the tables. You will join the Department Table with the Employee Table on common fields through the following tasks:
Join the
primary key
of the Department Table with the
foreign key
of the Employee Table in a
One-To-Many
relationship.
Enforce referential integrity.
Cascade update related fields.
Cascade delete related records.
Create a Form
Once the tables have been designed and the relationships have been established, it is time to enter data. You will use
one form
to enter and edit data in the two tables:
Create
one form
named
Department Form
that can be used to enter data into both tables.
Insert a row
below the Employee Table subform. Add a
button
in the new row to perform the
Add New Record
action with the text:
Add Record
.
Use the form to enter

Part 1 - Microsoft Access 2019
Use Access to create a database to store and retrieve Manufacturer Contact and Inventory information for Rio Salado Boat and Marine dealership.
Create a
new blank Access database
.
Save the file as
BoatDatabase_MEID.accdb
. Be sure to replace “MEID” in the filename with your actual MEID.
Structure of the Database
Read the requirements for the database below and understand how the database should work before you create the design. Remember to follow the best practices presented in TestOut and the online lesson content for creating professional Access databases.
Create the Tables
You will create new tables that contain information about the Rio Salado Boat and Marine Dealership’s manufacturers and inventory. When creating fields for your tables, it is important to break down your data into the smallest chunks you can (
fine data granularity
) to make it easier to extract data from the database later. You will also need to join the tables on common fields later in the project. For this project, assume a manufacturer can supply the boat dealership with multiple types of boats for the dealership’s inventory.
NOTE:
Remember to assign the most appropriate data type to each of the fields and that one of the fields in each of your tables must be set as the
Primary Key
. You do not need to enter data records into your tables at this time; you will create a form later in this project for data entry.
Manufacturer Contact Table
Create a new
table
named
Manufacturer Contact Table
. At a minimum, your table should include the following fields:
Manufacturer ID
Manufacturer (e.g., Bayliner)
Manufacturer Address
Sales Representative Name
Phone Number
Email Address
Inventory Table
Create a new
table
named
Inventory Table
. At a minimum, your table should include the following fields:
Inventory ID
Manufacturer ID
Boat Type (e.g., Sailboat)
Model Number
Dealer Cost
MSRP (i.e., Manufacturer Suggested Retail Price)
Quantity in Inventory
Establish Table Relationships
Once the design of the tables has been completed, the next step is to
establish relationships
between the tables:
Join the Manufacturer Contact Table with the Inventory Table on common fields.
Enforce referential integrity.
Create a Form
Once the tables have been designed and the relationships have been established, it is time to enter data. Remember that
each field of each record will need to include data
. You will use
one form
to enter and edit data in the two tables.
Create
one form
named
Manufacturer Form
that can be used to enter data into
both
tables.
Use the form to enter a
minimum of four manufacturers
. Include
your name
in one of the records as a Sales Representative for one of the manufacturers.
Use the form to enter
at least two different boat types
for
each
manufacturer.
Create the Queries
The ability to extract data from one or more tables is one of the most important functions provi.

This document discusses the pathophysiology, progression, complications and treatment options for Parkinson's disease, detached retina, and cerebral vascular accident (CVA). It covers topics such as the development of atheroma, predisposing factors, and treatments for left-sided CVA over 1000 words in APA style.
Parenting Practices among DepressedMothers in the Child Welf.docx
The study analyzed parenting practices among depressed mothers involved with the child welfare system using data from the National Survey of Child and Adolescent Well-Being. It found that maternal depression was associated with increased risk of emotional maltreatment and neglect over 36 months. Depression levels remained high over time and emotional maltreatment risk also remained elevated. This implies the need for better identification of mental health needs for mothers in the system and parent training to address positive parenting practices.

Parental Influences
Merging science and business, selective breeding has had a long history. With the advances of modern science, selective breeding animals to enhance and encourage specific characteristics is common.
That being said, what do you think about genetically modifying children based on chosen characteristics, is it acceptable?
The embryo can be modified to resist or remove diseases or even improve intelligence. It can also be modified to determine gender, hair color and other characteristics.

Example Approach to a paragraph with a quote/paraphrase:
1. Identify a passage that includes a key idea from the text to quote/paraphrase:
Robert Hartmann McNamara authored a report on “Homelessness”, which presented that drug use amongst the homeless is prevalent. Research from the 80’s routinely presented a clear connection between homelessness and addiction (1027).
2. Create a topic sentence that connects to or sets up the text support:
A key issue challenging the homeless community, and those working to help the homeless out of their situation, is the rate of addiction to drugs and alcohol.
3. Follow up and develop the idea with your analysis breaking down the point.
4. Notice the set up of the text by attributing the author (sometimes title) of the source.

6. Close out paragraph by addressing the source use and returning back to your main idea for further analysis.
Put it all Together w/ Source Support Highlighted:
(P) A key issue challenging the homeless community, and those working to help the homeless out of their situation, is the high rate of addiction to drugs and alcohol. (I) Substance abuse can cripple one’s ability to maintain a common standard of living. Those suffering in the throes of addiction will struggle to hold a job and often lose connection to the support of their loved ones. This disconnect from a steady income, family, and friends, plus the cost of their addiction, may lead to a life on the streets. Once there, the addiction can further manifest and take hold continuing a dangerous spiral. (E) Robert Hartmann McNamara authored a report on “Homelessness”, which presented that drug use amongst the homeless is prevalent. Research from the 80’s routinely presented a clear connection between homelessness and addiction (1027). This connection can be powerful and extremely challenging to break. (S) Even if addiction did not cause the homeless state, living without shelter, physical and emotional, creates an opportunity for substances to replace security and love. When trying to rise out of a homelessness, the need to kick the addiction becomes paramount to become self-reliant again. The clear relationship between homelessness and substance abuse creates a challenging set of circumstances for both the individual and those attempting to intervene and help.

paper should be between 750 – 1500 words. APA formatting is required
find two advertisements from any source (newspaper, magazine, tv, etc). One will be an example of the ways that the advertisement perpetuates ideas about race and/or ethnicity in a negative, prejudicial, or stereotypical way. The other should be an advertisement that challenges those prejudicial and stereotypical ways. Compare and contrast the advertisements. What ages, genders, races, etc are present in each advertisement (think back to the discussion of social statuses from chapter 5). What message do those statuses send? What key message is being sent by each advertisement? Summarize a thesis statement of 1-2 sentences that wraps up succinctly one message that can be gleaned from each of the advertisements about race and ethnicity. This will be presented as part of your main body, and the discussion should include discussion of many of these topics: socialization, race and ethnicity, prejudice, discrimination, us/them, and norms and/or values. You will need to bring in the social construction of reality, as well.
Then, find two more advertisements. One should include white models, and one should include individuals of color as the models. Challenge yourself to pick them at random without trying to find the “perfect” example, as we want to see what the average ad does. Explain how this example from the media adds to the social construction of our perceptions of race and ethnicity. Be sure to provide ample evidence of how this process occurs, and the role that the social institution of the media plays in the construction of race and ethnicity. Your discussion should include a clear explanation of what the social construction of our perceptions of race and ethnicity is, and how cultural transmission occurs through the media. This will be presented as part of your main body.
For your concluding paragraph, you will bring together a solid conclusion about race and ethnicity, giving a nice sociological analysis.

Paper must be double spaced, with 12 point font and include section .docx
Paper must be double spaced, with 12 point font and include section headers for each of the paper sections noted below (Three Representational Roles and Role You Choose, Influence of Legislative Leaders, Rank and Explain Influences of Institutional Factors, and Explain Your Vote)
Objective: The objective for this assignment is for students to understand and critically analyze the multiple pressures on policy makers in Texas as they most listen to their leaders, the governor, the voters (social responsibility) and their own conscience (personal responsibility) in deciding how to cast their vote on a controversial issue.
Assignment: You have recently been elected as a Republican to the Texas Senate from a competitive district (even number of Democrats, Republicans and Independents) just outside of Dallas. One of the first bills that you must vote on is House Bill 3- a Bill to forbid the creation of sanctuary cities (protecting undocumented immigrants from deportation). Your constituents support the bill as does the Governor your party, but you oppose it on grounds that most undocumented Texans are hardworking people who want to become legal citizens. The Speaker of the House opposes the bill as well.
In explaining how you will vote on the bill, be sure to explain the following:
What Representational Role you will adopt (trustee, delegate or politico). (Unit 4 Written Lectures, Slide 4-25). Be sure to discuss all three representational roles.
How will the Speaker of the House, the Lt. Governor and Governor of Texas influence the fate of the bill? (Unit 4 Written Lectures, Slides 4-9, 4-10, 4-18 & 4-22 )
How do you think constituents might try to influence your vote? (Unit 4 Written Lectures, Slide 4-20)
Which factors noted above and in your notes (constituents, governor, party leaders and your own opinion) will influence your vote? Rank them in importance. (Unit 4, Written Lectures, Slide 4-20, 4-21)
Will you vote for or against the bill? Please explain your answer thoroughly. You should refer back to the representational role here. (Unit 4 Written Lectures, Slide 4-25)

PAPER EXPECTATIONSFollow the instructions.Make your ideas .docx
PAPER EXPECTATIONS
Follow the instructions.
Make your ideas concise.
Use as few words as you can to make your statements. This will allow you more room to develop your great ideas!
Avoid repetition and redundancy
of both ideas and words. This is the issue that I usually subtract the most points for, so take care.
For example, when you edit your papers, make sure that you don’t say “Cool Herc is widely accepted as the originator of hip hop”, and then two sentences later, “As Cool Herc is the originator of hip hop…”. See how these two are the same idea? If the reader already has the information, repeating it just takes up space. Another thing to avoid is using the same word multiple times in quick succession. For example: “I found it exciting to listen to the this music. Eri B. has an exciting tone to his voice. When I hear how he flows when he strings words together, I feel excited.” See how ‘excitement’ occurs three times in three sentences? Here’s another more subtle example: “He used the turntable as a way to switch songs seamlessly, using the scratch method to cover up the different beats that were used in each song.” In this example, the word ‘use’ occurs three times in the same sentence! Because it’s a less emotional word, it might be harder to catch, but it’s just as problematic.
I like to see ‘I’ statements.
I find that turning the focus on yourself (especially when we are dealing with sensitive issues and incorporating personal experience, as I encourage) is a great way to avoid generalizing groups and ideas. If your statement is clearly from your perspective, then I as a reader can empathize with your position. If you use lots of ‘we as a generalized group of people act and feel this specific way’, it makes me wonder what research you’ve done, what data points you have, and how many people you have interviewed in order to have that knowledge.
Going off of the previous expectation:
BE SPECIFIC!
If you do make a generalized statement about a situation, back it up with details. Show the research. Reference or quote the authors who initially made the observations and put their work into context. If you tell me that Cool Herc is largely agreed to be the originator of hip hop, tell me why and give examples.
For example, something with detail and context would be: “Although Jamaican soundsystem culture is at the roots of hip hop, Cool Herc was the first to create tracks sourced from James Brown, using the funkier, harder beats that we’ve come to associate with hip hop today.” See how this gives specific details and context on either end of the statement that Cool Herc was the first person to make hip hop?
Make sure you include proper internal references, and construct your bibliography following MLA format
. In your paper, I like to see at least (Author, Date of Publication). For example: “Cool Herc is widely agreed to be the originator of hip hop(Babin 2020).” This tells me you got the information from the .

Paper Instructions 5) Paper should be 5-7 pages (excluding title page and references). APA format is required. There should be headings for each question answered. Be sure to review the rubric prior to writing your paper. Be careful to answer each section of the question asked. https://excellentwriter.xyz/education-homework-help/for-this-assignment-you-will-conduct-a-taste-test-using-at-least-7-participants/ This is a formal paper, so formal, professional language should be used, rather than conversational language.
Engage with Individuals, Families, Groups, Organizations, and Communities Social workers understand that engagement is an ongoing component of the dynamic and interactive process of social work practice with, and on behalf of, diverse individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities. Social workers value the importance of human relationships. Social workers understand theories of human behavior and the social environment, and critically evaluate and apply this knowledge to facilitate engagement with clients and constituencies, including individuals, families, groups, organizations, and communities. Social workers understand strategies to engage diverse clients and constituencies to advance practice effectiveness. Social workers understand how their personal experiences and affective reactions may impact their ability to effectively engage with diverse clients and constituencies. Social workers value principles of relationship-building and inter-professional collaboration to facilitate engagement with clients, constituencies, and other professionals as appropriate. Social workers: apply knowledge of human behavior and the social environment, person-in-environment, and other multidisciplinary theoretical frameworks to engage with clients and constituencies; and use empathy, reflection, and interpersonal skills to effectively engage diverse clients and constituencies. VIGNETTE Billy Brown Case Billy Brown is an 11 years old, and referred to you because it has been determined that he has been abused by his mother. Billy’s teacher reported the situation to protective services when she saw unexplained bruises on Billy’s arms and the intake worker who responded, founded a case of abuse. You are employed by Child Protective Services and will manage the case, which has been transferred to you from the intake emergency worker. Lorene Brown is Billy’s Mother. She is 28 years old, unemployed, and did not complete her high school education. She receives welfare benefits and lives in a small apartment she shares with a man whom she calls her boyfriend. Lorene is divorced and Billy’s father has shown no interest in him since he was born. Lorene is uncertain if he is incarcerated or not, and doesn’t know his whereabouts. Lorene and her boyfriend often engage in sexual behavior in the presence of Billy, who pretends not to see it, as their apartment is a studio. Lorene knew her boyfriend for 2 weeks before he moved in.

Paper 2 Assignment
POT 2002
.
Assignment: Write a 1000 word paper (= 3-4 pages, double-spaced) on one of the
following topics:
1.) In The Prince, Machiavelli writes: “And let no one resist my opinion on this
with that trite proverb, that whoever founds on the people founds on mud.”
According to Machiavelli, how should a prince “found on the people”? How does
his advice ultimately benefit the people?
2.) Take a look of the foundations of the social contract in both Hobbes and
Locke. How do their different assumptions about human nature and the state of
nature inform their theories? How does this result in their different conceptions
of civil society/government? Identify and analyze at least two different
assumptions and speak about the implications for their theories.
Papers cannot be submitted by email under any circumstances
Guidelines for Papers
1. Your paper is supposed to be an interpretation of some aspect of the
work(s): in other words, an argument concerning some aspect of the work
based on analysis of relevant textual evidence. Your paper is not supposed
to be a summary of the work, a statement of your opinion about the work, or a
discussion of its historical significance or relevance. Frame your paper as an
investigation of why and how the author makes the argument he or she does
rather than simply saying what is said. Turn your topic into an argument.
2. Give a clear statement of your argument at the beginning of your paper.
3. Unify your paper with a single argument with a logical development from one step of
the argument to the next. Do not make your paper a collection of separate points or
examples.
4. Every time you state that the author states or argues something you should
have evidence to support your statement, either in the form of a quotation or a specific
textual reference. Only quote what you need for your purposes. Try to look at your
quotations as something more than mere evidence, and instead as material that you
can analyze (break down into its parts in order to interpret it) in order to make your
argument.
5. Use clear and simple language, but a formal style. Obscurity is not profundity. Make
sure that you know the meaning of the words you use. You are writing a formal paper,
not an email message. Avoid colloquial or chatty language. Do not use contractions:
not using them reminds you of the appropriate level of discourse for your paper.
Criteria for assessing your work:
1. Do you have a clear statement of your argument?
2. Do you provide relevant evidence?
3. Are your reasoning and writing clear and effective?
4. Do you demonstrate understanding of the work(s) you are analyzing?
5. To what degree do you address the most important questions and problems
posed by the work(s) you are interpreting?
Warning: If your paper is effectively a summary of the work rather than an interpretation
of it, then the best grade you can possibly receive .

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.

OverviewIn this assignment, you will evaluate a current organiza.docx
- 1. Overview In this assignment, you will evaluate a current organizational structure and recommend structural changes that can help address the concerns the organization identified regarding collaboration, communication, and autonomy. Scenario You work for an organization that has traditionally been very formalized, and managers have had a very broad span of control over direct reports from multiple departments and functions. This worked well in the past; managers were able to oversee a high number of direct reports because there were many rules and regulations dictating how their work should be performed. However, there were downsides. Employee talent was underused, and there wasn’t a strong team culture, as most work was done independently according to standard operating processes. Recently, the organization has been shifting to less formalized working structures to support more creative, innovative work and provide employees with more autonomy. While employees are happy with the purpose of these new changes, managers are feeling overwhelmed, and employees are feeling undersupported. This has impacted function-specific work the most, because in the past, managers didn’t need to understand in-depth, function-specific tasks (such as the technical aspects of graphic design work or the intricacies of project management). Instead, they had the ability to rely on rules, regulations, and standard operating processes. Employees have also noticed a lack of communication around current projects, which has led to a lack of updated information and duplicated work across management teams.
- 2. You have been asked to work with the human resources department to recommend a new organizational structure that addresses these identified management and communication concerns. Prompt Use the Module Six Assignment Template located in the Guidelines for Submission section to create an updated organizational structure chart for the organization. Then, in a separate Word document, write a brief explanation for your recommended changes and how they will impact both organizational communication and overall team dynamics. Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria: Updated Organizational Structure Chart : Create an updated organizational structure chart that addresses management and communication concerns. Explanation of Changes : Explain your reasoning for why you made the changes you did to the company’s organizational structure. Include how your changes differ from the original and why you believe they would benefit the organization. Impact on Organizational Communication : Describe the impact these changes will have on the company’s overall organizational communication. Impact on Team Communication : Describe the impact these changes will have on the company’s overall team communication and reporting structure.
- 3. Guidelines for Submission Submit your completed Module Six Assignment Template as a PPT file. Submit your separate, written submission as a 2- to 3-page Word document with 12-point Times New Roman font, double spacing, and one-inch margins.
