Please fill the attached Self-Assessment Surveys (TWO) and calculate your score according to the instruction after each survey. These are personal assessments and I want you to be as honest as possible, rather than worry about what I am going to think.
1. AM I A DELIBERATE DECISION MAKER?
Indicate to what extent the following statements describe you when you make decisions.
1 = to a very little extent; 2 = to a little extent; 3 = somewhat; 4 = to a large extent; 5 = to a very large extent
1
2
3
4
5
1. I jump into things without thinking.
2. I make rash decisions.
3. I like to act on a whim.
4. I rush into things.
5. I don’t know why I do some of the things I do.
6. I act quickly without thinking.
7. I choose my words with care.
Instructions:
To score the measure, first reverse-code items 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. So that 1=5, 2=4, 3=3, 4=2, and 5=1. Then compute the sum of the 7 items. Scores will range from 7 to 35.
Interpretation
People differ in how they make decisions. Some people prefer to collect information, carefully weigh alternatives, and then select the best option, while others prefer to make a choice as quickly as possible.
This scale assesses how deliberate you are when making decisions. If you scored at or above 28, you tend to be quite deliberate. If you scored at or below 14, you tend to be rash. Scores between 14 and 27 reveal a more blended style of decision making.
How should decisions be made? The rational model states that individuals should define the problem, identify what criteria are relevant to making the decision and weigh those criteria according to importance, develop alternatives, and finally evaluate and select the best alternative. Though this sounds like an arduous process, research has shown that the rational model tends to result in better decisions.
Interestingly, personality is related to a person’s decision-making style. Individuals who are deliberate and decisive tend to be high in emotional stability and high in conscientiousness, while individuals who are more impulsive tend to be low on these two traits. Thus, while your decision-making style is likely to be somewhat stable, following the rational model should help you to avoid making rash decisions.
2. HOW CREATIVE AM I?
Review the 30 adjectives that follow. Being honest and forthright with your answers, identify only those items that accurately describe you.
1. Affected
2. Capable
3. Cautious
4. Clever
5. Commonplace
6. Confident
7. Conservative
8. Conventional
9. Dissatisfied
10. Egotistical

Written Case Analysis ModelStep 1. Problem Identification. The f.docxericbrooks84875
Written Case Analysis Model
Step 1. Problem Identification. The first step in your written analysis is to explicitly identify the major problem(s) in the case in one or two clear and precise sentences. For example, "The major problem in this case is a 15 percent increase in employee turnover compared to last year's rate." Herbert Simon, who received a Nobel Prize for his work on management decision making, has defined a problem as "a deviation from a standard." In other words, one way to identify a problem is to compare some desired state or objective with the actual situation. A problem or series of problems may prevent the organization from reaching its objectives or goals. A key point here is that in order to define a problem, there must be some type of standard for comparison. Possible standards include the organization's stated objectives or goals, objectives or goals of competing organizations, or standards based on normative prescriptions from human resource management theory.
It is important to remember that problems reside in the present. The problem is here and now!
Step 2. Identify the Causes of the Problem. Before proposing alternative solutions, the decision maker must have a clear understanding of the underlying causes of the problem. HRM problems are usually embedded in a larger context. This means the decision maker must examine internal and external environmental factors over time to isolate causal factors. Causes of problems tend to be historical in nature. To formulate a solid understanding of the specific causes, you should search for root causes and use relevant course concepts and theories to better define them. The "question syndrome" approach may be beneficial here: Why did the problem occur? When did it begin? Where does it occur? Where doesn't it occur? What effective HRM practices should the organization be using? What has the organization failed to do? What are the antecedents of the problem? Posing these questions will help you to probe beyond the symptoms to the root causes of the problem.
The process of identifying the causes of a problem is very much like hypothesis testing. You should set forth possible causes and then test them against the facts in the case. In writing this section, it is important to present a plausible discussion of the causes so as to convince the reader that your analysis is correct.
Step 3. Select Criteria. Your decision criteria serve to allow you the opportunity to evaluate each of your alternatives using the same measures. Many of the criteria that you will utilize in making HR decisions are qualitative in nature. There is a short list presented in your packet. In reality, all of these come into play. But importance to any problem will be different, which will require you to prioritize these for each different case. We will prioritize this list and use the most important three for each set of alternatives.

Upper management needs to make a tough decision on whether to close 3 of the 200 stores that are unprofitable. Closing the stores will mean laying off 45 employees right before the holiday season. Leaving the communities also means that local people will have no place to purchase reasonably priced shoes and sneakers. The financial bottom line would be improved by closing the stores. Use the decision tree in the text to recommend what management should do. Be sure to consider each of the steps.

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

C. Eight (8) resources
D. Ten (10) resources
7. Which section is responsible for providing incident facilities?

B. Operations
C. Logistics
D. Finance/Administration
8. Which section is responsible for documenting the status of resources, incident response, and developing the IAP?

C. Logistics
D. Finance/Administration
9. The Incident Commander is responsible for all the following EXCEPT:
A. Protecting life and property
B. Controlling resources assigned to the incident

1. The Thirteenth Amendment effectively brought an end to slaver.docxstilliegeorgiana
1. The Thirteenth Amendment effectively brought an end to slavery in the United States. Lincoln had issued the Emancipation Proclamation over 3 years earlier. Why, then, was the Thirteenth Amendment issued? Was it necessary? How come?
2. The Fourteenth Amendment settled the question of who is a citizen of the United States. (anyone naturalized or born here). Why are Indians excluded?
3. Persons who are citizens may not be denied the right to vote according to the Fifteenth Amendment. The Civil Rights crises of the 1960s, and the work of Martin Luther King (and many others) sought, among other things, to assure that the right to vote was available to all. Why? The Fifteenth Amendment had been passed almost a hundred years earlier. How could persons be denied the ballot?
4. How could Andrew Johnson, Lincoln's successor, veto the Civil Rights Bill in 1866 when the 13th Amendment had already been passed in 1865? What issues did he cite to justify his veto? (Hint: look at the Johnson primary source)
5. The 14th Amendment. How does Foner explain the relationship between the Federal and the State as a result of the 14th Amendment?

This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Please fill the attached Self-Assessment Surveys (TWO) and calcula.docx
1. Please fill the attached Self-Assessment Surveys (TWO) and
calculate your score according to the instruction after each
survey. These are personal assessments and I want you to be as
honest as possible, rather than worry about what I am going to
think.
1. AM I A DELIBERATE DECISION MAKER?
Indicate to what extent the following statements describe you
when you make decisions.
1 = to a very little extent; 2 = to a little extent; 3 = somewhat; 4
= to a large extent; 5 = to a very large extent
1
2
3
4
5
1. I jump into things without thinking.
2. I make rash decisions.
3. I like to act on a whim.
2. 4. I rush into things.
5. I don’t know why I do some of the things I do.
6. I act quickly without thinking.
7. I choose my words with care.
Instructions:
To score the measure, first reverse-code items 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and
6. So that 1=5, 2=4, 3=3, 4=2, and 5=1. Then compute the sum
of the 7 items. Scores will range from 7 to 35.
Interpretation
People differ in how they make decisions. Some people prefer
to collect information, carefully weigh alternatives, and then
select the best option, while others prefer to make a choice as
quickly as possible.
This scale assesses how deliberate you are when making
decisions. If you scored at or above 28, you tend to be quite
3. deliberate. If you scored at or below 14, you tend to be rash.
Scores between 14 and 27 reveal a more blended style of
decision making.
How should decisions be made? The rational model states that
individuals should define the problem, identify what criteria are
relevant to making the decision and weigh those criteria
according to importance, develop alternatives, and finally
evaluate and select the best alternative. Though this sounds like
an arduous process, research has shown that the rational model
tends to result in better decisions.
Interestingly, personality is related to a person’s decision-
making style. Individuals who are deliberate and decisive tend
to be high in emotional stability and high in conscientiousness,
while individuals who are more impulsive tend to be low on
these two traits. Thus, while your decision-making style is
likely to be somewhat stable, following the rational model
should help you to avoid making rash decisions.
2. HOW CREATIVE AM I?
Review the 30 adjectives that follow. Being honest and
forthright with your answers, identify only those items that
accurately describe you.
1. Affected
2. Capable
3. Cautious
4. Clever
5. Commonplace
6. Confident
7. Conservative
5. 26. Snobbish
27. Submissive
28. Suspicious
29. Unconventional
30. Wide Interests
Instructions:
The score was calculated by adding 1 point if you described
yourself using items 2, 4, 6, 10, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 20, 21,
22, 23, 24, 26, 29, and 30. 1 point was subtracted for any of the
remaining items which you said accurately described you.
Interpretation
Creativity is the ability to combine ideas in a unique way or to
make unusual associations between ideas. A creative person
develops novel approaches to doing their work or unique
solutions to problems.
This questionnaire was developed to identify creative talent and
potential. It has been widely used and replicated. It is composed
of 30 items – 18 of which have been found to be positively
associated with creativity, and 12 that are negatively correlated.
Your score will range -12 and +18. The higher your positive
score, the more you display characteristics associated with a
creative personality.
For managers, creativity is useful in decision making. It helps
them to see problems and alternatives that others might not. All
jobs, of course, don’t require high creativity. And highly
creative individuals, when faced with routine and structured
jobs, often became frustrated and dissatisfied. If you score high
on creativity, you should ideally seek a job that will provide
you with a creative outlet. If that’s not possible, utilize your
free time to develop hobbies and interests that can satisfy you
6. need for creative expression.
Essay 1- Attitudes and Job Satisfaction
Employee surveys came back at the end of the year, and your
scores have dipped. You haven’t experienced any real turnover
yet, but you want to prevent that from happening.
Application:
Summarize the causes of job satisfaction. Describe a scenario
(making up any details you may need) in which your department
falls short. In the role of a manager, plan how you might
improve job satisfaction for your employees.

Essay 4- Introvert Leaders
When people think of a stereotypical leader, they often conjure
up the image of a dynamic public speaker, a forceful and
dominant personality, and someone who can cultivate
relationships with a broad number of people. These are all
hallmarks of the extroverted personality type, so it’s often been
the case that extroverts rise to leadership positions more readily
than introverts.
However, some question whether the social dominance and
ability to command attention shown by extraverts might make
them less effective leaders in certain ways. In particular,
extroverts may be less likely to take advice from followers. One
study investigated how quickly groups of college students could
fold shirts in 10 minutes. Each group had a leader who was cued
to be either extroverted or introverted. The introverted leaders
took more advice from their proactive followers, and this led
the groups with introverted leaders to be more effective. Thus,
even though there are cases where introverts are less successful
as leaders, in some conditions, they are more effective. Others
note that introverted leaders can be better than extroverts at
one-on-one interactions, empathy, and deliberate decision
making.
12. Are there business executives who break the extroverted leader
mold? One successful introvert is Google co-founder Larry
Page, well known for developing a small number of close
relationships and being an excellent chief. Colgate-Palmolive
CEO Ian Cook might feel uncomfortable in front of large groups
of people he doesn’t know, but he has learned to partner with
more extroverted colleagues for presentations to offset his
natural shyness.
CEO Mike Duke is famously low-key and reserved, but he has
utilized his natural introvert skills of managing details and
engineering solutions to maintain the retail giant’s dominant
market position. These examples show that although extroverts
might get all the attention, introverts can still make effective
leaders.
Assignment:
In an essay, respond to the following questions in any order you
choose:
· In which kinds of situations do you think extraverts make
more effective leaders than introverts? What unique introvert
trait could make the extraverts more effective in those same
situations?
· In which kinds of situations do you think introverts make more
effective leaders than extraverts? What unique extravert trait
could make the introverts more effective in those same
situations?
· Are you more of an introverted or extraverted leader? What
kind of changes can you make to take advantage of
characteristics of the “other” style — whether it is extraversion
or introversion? Which of your natural traits should you work to
solidify and strengthen?
13. · Who is your favorite business leader? How would you describe
this person’s style? What elements from this person can you
“borrow” to improve your own leadership abilities? Explain.
Use of first person voice is appropriate for this assignment.
Please remember to be clear and concise while demonstrating an
understanding of chapter themes and concepts in your response.
