Prompt: For Milestone Three, you will submit your rough draft. The rough draft should include as much of the completed paper as possible. All citations within the rough draft must be in Chicago-style footnotes with a bibliography on the final page. Suggested Topic here is the following: (Influences of African kingdoms on the Greco-Roman empire) Include an arguable thesis statement. The thesis statement should be well-phrased and set up the natural organization of the paper. The thesis statement should be included in the introduction paragraph of your paper. The thesis statement is the argument you are supporting throughout the paper with scholarly evidence. Place the chosen culture into a historical context through the inclusion of historical information regarding the country, religion, civilization, time period, dynasties or kingdoms, primary people involved, and any other relevant information. Your paper must compare Western and Eastern elements for the chosen topic, such as elements from Japan, China, India, Africa, or a combination of those AND an element (an explorer, an idea, a religion, an interaction, an empire, etc.) from Western civilization. Discussion of the comparative elements from the two regions should be throughout the paper to provide a comprehensive comparison. Analyze how members of your chosen topic react to ideas, institutions, and the cultural ideals during moments of historical interaction. Consider how the individuals or groups reacted to the exchange of ideas and how the interaction changed the civilization. You should analyze scholarly evidence to include in your paper that fully supports your thesis statement. You should include at least four primary sources and four secondary sources. Scholarly evidence can be included as specific examples, quotes, detail, events, or statistics to support the argument of the paper. Conclude with an analysis of the consequences of these interactions that considers how the cultural exchanges benefited both groups and are evident in the current day. Guidelines for Submission: Your rough draft must be 5–6 pages in length (plus references) and must be written in Chicago-style format. Use double spacing, 12- point Times New Roman font, and one-inch margins. Include at least four scholarly and four primary sources cited in Chicago/Turabian format for citations and bibliography.

Background:
In this paper, you will expand your ability “to do history,” by working with multiple primary
sources and secondary sources (scholarly essays) in order to understand a topic across multiple
societies. For this paper, you will be comparing the ideal and practical roles of women in at least
two Ancient and/or Classical Civilizations: Ancient Babylon, Ancient/Classical India, Han
China, Classical Greece, or Rome. For this topic, there is an assigned collection of primary
sources and scholarly essays (listed below and provided as pdfs in Moodle’s Assignments block).
For this paper, you will need to analyze at least 3 of the primary sources in the collection and
draw support for your primary source analysis from at least 2 of the essays in the collection.
Your goal for this paper is to construct an argumentative analysis of the historical topic, guided
by a thesis statement. Support for your interpretation should come from the primary sources
themselves and the secondary sources (scholarly articles) in the collection, supplemented by your
textbook, and class-notes (with limited outside references, if needed).

Exploring Ancient Mysteries
Choose one (1) of the topics below and develop a three to four (3-4) paragraph essay (of at least 250-500 words) which adequately address the topic you have chosen.
Topic Choices
There have been many theories regarding how the pyramids at Giza were constructed. Most experts agree that they were constructed as burial monuments for pharaohs, but “how” these ancient people constructed monuments of such great size without modern machinery is a mystery which is still being debated.
No one can say for certain what happened to the great urban Mayan civilization, but theories abound and include varied possible alternatives to explain the relatively abrupt and mysterious disappearance of the Mayan civilization.
Tutankhamen died young, at approximately eighteen (18) years of age. However, his cause of death has been the subject of quite varied scholarly theories and conclusions. Did he die of an injury, of illness, of murder, or something else?.
Minoan Crete was a major civilization in its time, but several theories have been advanced to explain its demise, including speculations associating it with mythical Atlantis. What were the causes of Minoan Civilization's decline?
Great Zimbabwe is an enormous complex of structures in East Africa. Since the builders and occupants left no written records, several theories have developed as to the identity of its builders and the functions of the structures. Which theory makes the most sense?
The monumental size and complexity of the Tomb of Shihuangdi is astounding, yet its location and construction details were to be kept secret. What was the emperor’s purpose for such an elaborate, secret burial place?
Write a three to four (3-4) paragraph paper in which you:
Clearly state the “mystery” and provide a brief summary of at least two (2) reasonable and scholarly theories which could explain the mystery. Because some theories may sound far-fetched, include the source or promoter of each theory – such as a scientist, a historian, a theologian, etc.
After summarizing at least two (2) scholarly theories, identify one (1) of the theories as the most plausible and provide at least two (2) convincing reasons why the theory you have chosen is the best one to explain the mystery. This will involve some critical reasoning skills on your part.

Write an Essay to support the notion that "African societies during the slavery era were more advanced than European societies of that era”
Students must write a position paper focusing on a controversial and/or important topic related to American history to the Civil War. The paper should be between 3-5 pages (double-spaced; 12-font), use verifiable references and should include the following:
1) A clear statement of your position on the chosen topic.
Example: “I believe that stem research is wrong….”
2) At least four strong logical arguments/facts supporting your position.
Example: “…I based my position on four factors. The first is that …. The second is that….
3) Identification and notation of at least four sources in the narrative of your paper.

4) Clear references (either endnotes or contextual citations) for all information or data that is not considered public knowledge.
Example: “Baba Zak A. Kondo argues convincingly that the American educational system is designed to miseducate rather than educate Black students (The Black Student’s Guide to Positive Education [1987], pg. 4).”
5) A clear and concise introduction and conclusion.
Example [Introduction]: “In the past few decades, we have witnessed a growing interest in the efforts of Nat Turner and other revolutionaries to use force to end slavery in the U.S. The tactics of these revolutionaries have fostered a debate on the use of force as an instrument for social change. I contend that force was needed to end slavery in the U.S. and that violence played an important role in ending slavery prior to the Civil War…”
6) Logical and reasonable arguments and discussion.
Notes: Organize your arguments from strongest to weakest; cite examples that support your points and demonstrate depth in your reasoning.
7) Utilization of at least six sources. (3 must be books and/or articles; the others can be
electronic sources.
Notes: The position paper is a much a research project as it is a personal view. You must utilize the research of others to support and augment your position. There are no exceptions to the rule.
8) Listings of complete citations of all book, articles and other sources consulted.
Notes: List your sources at the end of your paper in either an established format (Turabian, APA…) or in a format that you develop. Be sure to include all vital reference information so that your reader can easily locate the listed
source.
The Position Paper will be evaluated based on the following: (1) grammar; (2) organization; (3) content of the presentation and the extent to which you followed instructions and guidelines outlined above. Each of these areas will be worth 33.3%.
The Position Paper cannot exceed 5 (five) pages!!! No exceptions to this rule!

Research Essay ProjectIntroductionInstead of a final exam, you.docx
Research Essay Project
Introduction
Instead of a final exam, you will complete a major research essay project. The research essay project is a mandatory component of the course; you must pass the research essay project to be eligible to pass the course.
The research essay will be based on the following broad topic:
· The role of energy in North American history
Within this broad topic, you will select your own historical case-study subject that addresses the role of energy in North American history. The research essay should be based on both primary and secondary source research. In consultation with your Open Learning Faculty Member, you will choose a case-study subject and submit a proposal for your research essay project.
· Proposal: 5% of final grade
· Research essay: 35% of final grade
Instructions
It will be helpful for you to read through this full set of instructions for the research essay project at the beginning of the course to familiarize yourself with the expectations. Also, it’s not too early to start thinking about a particular subject area of interest that you might want to work on for this project. Be sure to consult with your Open Learning Faculty Member.
Introductory reading
Begin by reading the first chapter of Richard White’s 1995 book, The Organic Machine: The Remaking of the Columbia River. In this book, White analyzes the history of the Columbia River as a system of energy flows between the river, salmon, and the human inhabitants of the Columbia watershed.
This first chapter will provide you with a methodology for framing your own case study on the role of energy in North American history.
As you read this chapter, make notes and answer the following questions:
1. How does White define energy?
2. How widely or narrowly will you define energy in your own essay?
You may also want to share your thoughts and ideas about this reading with your peers through the course’s online “Discussions.”
White, Richard. The Organic Machine: The Remaking of the Columbia River. New York: Hill & Wang, 1995. Chapter One “Knowing Nature through Labor: Energy, Salmon Society on the Columbia” pgs. 3–29.
Choose a historical case-study subject
Because this assignment will be based, in part, on primary source research, you are encouraged to begin by searching for a primary source or set of primary sources on a specific historical case-study subject that addresses the topic of the role of energy in North American history.
Seek out specific case-studies that relate to a particular subject area of interest. For instance, if you are interested in oil and gas development, you might want to write a research essay on an aspect of the history of tar sands mining in northern Alberta. If you are interested in urban environments, you might want to write about nineteenth-century scavengers in a particular city.
Remember to select a case study that explores the environmental history of a given subject. Be sure to consult with your Open Learning Faculty Membe ...

PURPOSE To begin applying critical lenses (theory) to both the li.docx
PURPOSE:
To begin applying critical lenses (theory) to both the literary reading and writing processes. You’ll analyze a piece of fiction using the fundamental premises and rules of interpretation outlined by a school of criticism. In this first paper you will focus on
intrinsic analysis,
doing a close study of the various literary elements, language and patterns that create meaning in the text. While the two critical lenses differ considerably, both function on the premise that analysis of the “text and the text and alone” best reveals meaning. (Psychoanalytic criticism does include several components that emphasize
extrinsic analysis
, but several of its modes of interpretation subscribe to or allow for intrinsic analysis.)
ASSIGNMENT:
In a 4-5 page, MLA-formatted paper, analyze one of the short stories selected for the paper using either New Criticism or Psychoanalytic Criticism. (Below-page 2- you will find a list of short stories on which you can base this first paper. I will post a list of additional stories and their attending summaries in another document that goes with this prompt.) Your paper should include direct quotes that support your examples, a clear and thoughtful thesis (you’ll find examples of an intro/thesis for both schools of criticisms in the theory folders on Blackboard – the New Critical example is already posted).

One child is chosen from the population to serve as a sacrifice that will allow the rest of the city to live in peace and plenty. The child is placed in a small, windowless room without any amenities and is completely cut off from the rest of society except for the short visits from those who come to view the child. When they learn of the child’s existence, the people of Omelas battle with the knowledge of The child, who suffers for them, and the guilt they feel as a result of their knowledge.
Red Card
:
“What if the government gave everybody one free pass to shoot one person,
any person,
for whatever reason? . . . S.L. Gilbow says that the idea for “Red Card” actually came from a conversation he had with his daughter, Mandy. “One day after a driver cut me off in heavy traffic. I . . . turned to my daughter and said, ‘Everyone should be allowed to shoot one person without going to prison.’ My daughter thought for a second then turned to

me and said, ‘Dad, if that were true you would have been dead a long time ago.”

Purpose of Assignment
Students will employ the supply and demand model to develop consumer surplus and producer surplus as a measure of welfare and market efficiency. Students learn about welfare economics--the study of how the allocation of resources affects economic well-being--and will discover that under most circumstances, the equilibrium price and quantity is also the one that maximizes welfare. Students will review different sources of externalities and a variety of potential cures and will see that while markets are usually a good way to organize economic activity, governments can sometimes improve market outcomes. Students will see how the U.S. government raises and spends money and the difficulty of making a tax system both efficient and equitable.

Scenario:
Shelley Jones has just been elected as president of the Circular Club of Auburn, Kansas, and she has been asked to suggest a new fundraising activity for the club. After a considerable amount of research, Shelley proposed the Circular Club sponsor a professional rodeo. In her presentation to the club, Shelley recommends the fundraiser become an annual activity with the following goals:
Continue to grow each year
Give back to the community
Provide the club a presence in the community
Shelley's goal in the first year is to have an activity that would become an "annual community event" and would break even the first year and raise $5,000 the following year. In addition, based on the experience of other communities, Shelley believed a rodeo could grow in popularity so the club would eventually earn an average of $20,000 annually.
A rodeo committee was formed. Shelley contacted the world's oldest and largest rodeo-sanctioning agency to apply to sponsor a professional rodeo. The sanctioning agency requires a rodeo to consist of the following five events: Bareback Riding, Bronco Riding, Steer Wrestling, Bull Riding, and Calf Roping, Team Roping and Women's Barrels. Prize money in the amount of $3,000 would be paid to winners in each of the seven events. Members of the rodeo committee contracted with RJ Cattle Company, a livestock contractor on the rodeo circuit, to provide bucking stock, fencing, and chutes. Realizing costs associated with the rodeo were tremendous and ticket sales would probably not be sufficient to cover the costs, the rodeo committee sent letters to local businesses soliciting contributions in exchange for various sponsorships. Exhibiting Sponsorships are $1,000 to exhibit products or services, while Major Sponsorships are $600, and Chute Sponsorships are $500 to have the name of the sponsor's business on one of the six bucking chutes. For a contribution of $100, individual sponsors will be included in a Friends of Rodeo list found in the rodeo programs.
A local youth group will be contacted to provide concessions to the public and divide the profits with the Circular Club. The Auburn Circular Club Pro Rodeo Roundup will be held on June 1, 2, and 3. The cost of an adult ticket is set at $8 in advance or $10 at the gate; the cost of a ticket for a child 12 or younger is set at $6 in .

Choose one (1) of the topics below and develop a three to four (3-4) paragraph essay (of at least 250-500 words) which adequately address the topic you have chosen.
Topic Choices
There have been many theories regarding how the pyramids at Giza were constructed. Most experts agree that they were constructed as burial monuments for pharaohs, but “how” these ancient people constructed monuments of such great size without modern machinery is a mystery which is still being debated.
No one can say for certain what happened to the great urban Mayan civilization, but theories abound and include varied possible alternatives to explain the relatively abrupt and mysterious disappearance of the Mayan civilization.
Tutankhamen died young, at approximately eighteen (18) years of age. However, his cause of death has been the subject of quite varied scholarly theories and conclusions. Did he die of an injury, of illness, of murder, or something else?.
Minoan Crete was a major civilization in its time, but several theories have been advanced to explain its demise, including speculations associating it with mythical Atlantis. What were the causes of Minoan Civilization's decline?
Great Zimbabwe is an enormous complex of structures in East Africa. Since the builders and occupants left no written records, several theories have developed as to the identity of its builders and the functions of the structures. Which theory makes the most sense?
The monumental size and complexity of the Tomb of Shihuangdi is astounding, yet its location and construction details were to be kept secret. What was the emperor’s purpose for such an elaborate, secret burial place?
Other topic choice recommended and approved by the professor and supported by the grading rubric.
Write a three to four (3-4) paragraph paper in which you:
Clearly state the “mystery” and provide a brief summary of at least two (2) reasonable and scholarly theories which could explain the mystery. Because some theories may sound far-fetched, include the source or promoter of each theory – such as a scientist, a historian, a theologian, etc.
After summarizing at least two (2) scholarly theories, identify one (1) of the theories as the most plausible and provide at least two (2) convincing reasons why the theory you have chosen is the best one to explain the mystery. This will involve some critical reasoning skills on your part.
Use at least two (2) sources plus the class textbook. (Three [3] sources total as the minimum)

Research Essay Project
Introduction
Instead of a final exam, you will complete a major research essay project. The research essay project is a mandatory component of the course; you must pass the research essay project to be eligible to pass the course.
The research essay will be based on the following broad topic:
· The role of energy in North American history
Within this broad topic, you will select your own historical case-study subject that addresses the role of energy in North American history. The research essay should be based on both primary and secondary source research. In consultation with your Open Learning Faculty Member, you will choose a case-study subject and submit a proposal for your research essay project.
· Proposal: 5% of final grade
· Research essay: 35% of final grade
Instructions
It will be helpful for you to read through this full set of instructions for the research essay project at the beginning of the course to familiarize yourself with the expectations. Also, it’s not too early to start thinking about a particular subject area of interest that you might want to work on for this project. Be sure to consult with your Open Learning Faculty Member.
Introductory reading
Begin by reading the first chapter of Richard White’s 1995 book, The Organic Machine: The Remaking of the Columbia River. In this book, White analyzes the history of the Columbia River as a system of energy flows between the river, salmon, and the human inhabitants of the Columbia watershed.
This first chapter will provide you with a methodology for framing your own case study on the role of energy in North American history.
As you read this chapter, make notes and answer the following questions:
1. How does White define energy?
2. How widely or narrowly will you define energy in your own essay?
You may also want to share your thoughts and ideas about this reading with your peers through the course’s online “Discussions.”
White, Richard. The Organic Machine: The Remaking of the Columbia River. New York: Hill & Wang, 1995. Chapter One “Knowing Nature through Labor: Energy, Salmon Society on the Columbia” pgs. 3–29.
Choose a historical case-study subject
Because this assignment will be based, in part, on primary source research, you are encouraged to begin by searching for a primary source or set of primary sources on a specific historical case-study subject that addresses the topic of the role of energy in North American history.
Seek out specific case-studies that relate to a particular subject area of interest. For instance, if you are interested in oil and gas development, you might want to write a research essay on an aspect of the history of tar sands mining in northern Alberta. If you are interested in urban environments, you might want to write about nineteenth-century scavengers in a particular city.
Remember to select a case study that explores the environmental history of a given subject. Be sure to consult with your Open Learning Faculty Membe ...

Assignment 1: Essay – Exploring Ancient Mysteries
Due Week 4 and worth 100 points
Choose one (1) of the topics below and develop a three to four (3-4) paragraph essay (of at least 250-500 words) which adequately address the topic you have chosen.
Topic Choices
There have been many theories regarding how the pyramids at Giza were constructed. Most experts agree that they were constructed as burial monuments for pharaohs, but “how” these ancient people constructed monuments of such great size without modern machinery is a mystery which is still being debated.
No one can say for certain what happened to the great urban Mayan civilization, but theories abound and include varied possible alternatives to explain the relatively abrupt and mysterious disappearance of the Mayan civilization.
Tutankhamen died young, at approximately eighteen (18) years of age. However, his cause of death has been the subject of quite varied scholarly theories and conclusions. Did he die of an injury, of illness, of murder, or something else?.
Minoan Crete was a major civilization in its time, but several theories have been advanced to explain its demise, including speculations associating it with mythical Atlantis. What were the causes of Minoan Civilization's decline?
Great Zimbabwe is an enormous complex of structures in East Africa. Since the builders and occupants left no written records, several theories have developed as to the identity of its builders and the functions of the structures. Which theory makes the most sense?
The monumental size and complexity of the Tomb of Shihuangdi is astounding, yet its location and construction details were to be kept secret. What was the emperor’s purpose for such an elaborate, secret burial place?
Other topic choice recommended and approved by the professor and supported by the grading rubric.
Write a three to four (3-4) paragraph paper in which you:
Clearly state the “mystery” and provide a brief summary of at least two (2) reasonable and scholarly theories which could explain the mystery. Because some theories may sound far-fetched, include the source or promoter of each theory – such as a scientist, a historian, a theologian, etc.
After summarizing at least two (2) scholarly theories, identify one (1) of the theories as the most plausible and provide at least two (2) convincing reasons why the theory you have chosen is the best one to explain the mystery. This will involve some critical reasoning skills on your part.
Use at least two (2) sources plus the class textbook. (Three [3] sources total as the minimum)

PURPOSE To begin applying critical lenses (theory) to both the li.docx
PURPOSE:
To begin applying critical lenses (theory) to both the literary reading and writing processes. You’ll analyze a piece of fiction using the fundamental premises and rules of interpretation outlined by a school of criticism. In this first paper you will focus on
intrinsic analysis,
doing a close study of the various literary elements, language and patterns that create meaning in the text. While the two critical lenses differ considerably, both function on the premise that analysis of the “text and the text and alone” best reveals meaning. (Psychoanalytic criticism does include several components that emphasize
extrinsic analysis
, but several of its modes of interpretation subscribe to or allow for intrinsic analysis.)
ASSIGNMENT:
In a 4-5 page, MLA-formatted paper, analyze one of the short stories selected for the paper using either New Criticism or Psychoanalytic Criticism. (Below-page 2- you will find a list of short stories on which you can base this first paper. I will post a list of additional stories and their attending summaries in another document that goes with this prompt.) Your paper should include direct quotes that support your examples, a clear and thoughtful thesis (you’ll find examples of an intro/thesis for both schools of criticisms in the theory folders on Blackboard – the New Critical example is already posted).

The Ones Who Walk Away From Omelas
:
“
One child is chosen from the population to serve as a sacrifice that will allow the rest of the city to live in peace and plenty. The child is placed in a small, windowless room without any amenities and is completely cut off from the rest of society except for the short visits from those who come to view the child. When they learn of the child’s existence, the people of Omelas battle with the knowledge of The child, who suffers for them, and the guilt they feel as a result of their knowledge.
Red Card
:
“What if the government gave everybody one free pass to shoot one person,
any person,
for whatever reason? . . . S.L. Gilbow says that the idea for “Red Card” actually came from a conversation he had with his daughter, Mandy. “One day after a driver cut me off in heavy traffic.

Scenario:
Shelley Jones has just been elected as president of the Circular Club of Auburn, Kansas, and she has been asked to suggest a new fundraising activity for the club. After a considerable amount of research, Shelley proposed the Circular Club sponsor a professional rodeo. In her presentation to the club, Shelley recommends the fundraiser become an annual activity with the following goals:
Continue to grow each year
Give back to the community
Provide the club a presence in the community
Shelley's goal in the first year is to have an activity that would become an "annual community event" and would break even the first year and raise $5,000 the following year. In addition, based on the experience of other communities, Shelley believed a rodeo could grow in popularity so the club would eventually earn an average of $20,000 annually.
A rodeo committee was formed. Shelley contacted the world's oldest and largest rodeo-sanctioning agency to apply to sponsor a professional rodeo. The sanctioning agency requires a rodeo to consist of the following five events: Bareback Riding, Bronco Riding, Steer Wrestling, Bull Riding, and Calf Roping, Team Roping and Women's Barrels. Prize money in the amount of $3,000 would be paid to winners in each of the seven events. Members of the rodeo committee contracted with RJ Cattle Company, a livestock contractor on the rodeo circuit, to provide bucking stock, fencing, and chutes. Realizing costs associated with the rodeo were tremendous and ticket sales would probably not be sufficient to cover the costs, the rodeo committee sent letters to local businesses soliciting contributions in exchange for various sponsorships. Exhibiting Sponsorships are $1,000 to exhibit products or services, while Major Sponsorships are $600, and Chute Sponsorships are $500 to have the name of the sponsor's business on one of the six bucking chutes. For a contribution of $100, individual sponsors will be included in a Friends of Rodeo list found in the rodeo programs.
A local youth group will be contacted to provide concessions to the public and divide the profits with the Circular Club. The Auburn Circular Club Pro Rodeo Roundup will be held on June 1, 2, and 3. The cost of an adult ticket is set at $8 in advance or $10 at the gate; the cost of a ticket for a child 12 or younger is set at $6 in .

Discussion:
(
Which theory speaks to your advanced nursing practice?)
One of the theorists that speaks to my nursing practice is Madeleine Leininger’s Theory of Culture Care Diversity and Universality otherwise known as transcultural nursing. The theory of transcultural nursing promotes understanding of both the universally held and common understandings of care among humans and the culture-specific caring beliefs and behaviors that define any particular caring context of interaction (Butts & Rich, 2018, p. 572). Culture is the specific pattern of behavior that distinguishes any society from others and gives meaning to human expressions of care (McFarland & Wehbe-Alamah, 2015). This theory is intended to view the patient as a whole being. As an APN, this theory will allow me to be considerate of my patient’s needs. In turn, they will feel respected and listened to and hopefully this will promote a long-lasting relationship.
Leininger discovered that inadequate knowledge of cultural factors represented a missing link in her ability to provide care (Nelson, 2006). As a future APN, I recognize the need and sometimes missing component of culture care nursing in our women’s health practice today. For example, in South Dakota we have a lot of Native American reservations. Since we see a number of Native American women, I think it would be beneficial for me to better understand their culture and beliefs related to healthcare in order to offer these women expert care.
Also, with Leininger’s transcultural nursing theory she believes seeing the patient as a whole and to appreciate that the patient represents a complex constellation of physical, emotional, psychological, spiritual, social, environmental, and economic factors that interact and contribute to the patient’s unique wholeness and influence their ability to participate in health promotion, health maintenance, and disease modifying activities (McFarland & Eipperle, 2008). As an APN, by viewing the patient as a whole and recognizing their diversities, I will provide better patient care in which caring will be the main focus and recognizing that their different beliefs and cultures play a part in their decision making to the different treatment options.

CASE STUDY AND BULLET POINTS:
Andrew Rockfish and the co- owners have been looking for a competitive edge in the North American market that will translate well to the other divisions. A recent meeting of the owners resulted in the decision to target business organizations with custom services. This decision stems from recent feedback from customers that revealed that for GDD to anticipate the needs of their clients, suppliers and service vendors, the Company needed to decrease the turnaround time in delivery and the mailing of small packages and letters. Rockfish has decided to offer “boutique” services to its business customers. Catering to businesses will allow GDD to provide personal services that Fed Ex and UPS cannot offer. Customizing the services will allow GDD to increase prices while creating a new niche.

Discussion: Opinion Leaders
This page automatically marks posts as read as you scroll.
Adjust automatic marking as read setting
I chose to further my education in hopes of providing better patient care and education. I want to be seen as an influence and a primary healthcare provider. My goal is to provide specialized, high-leveled care to patients with different backgrounds.
An opinion leader is someone who has strong influence within a work place, giving of their time and experience, and creates strategies to help change an initiative. An opinion leader earns their role after much experience and expertise. Others look to them for advice and new information (Hamric, Hanson, Tracy, & O’Grady, 2014).
When problems arise in a work environment, employees will look towards opinion leaders and others who will lead them through the stressors and crises. In order to be successful as an opinion leader, staff must be committed to serving the organization and devote time for teaching. Patient and staff safety should always be at the forefront. Not one person knows all the answers, but once we live through various experiences our abilities and competence improve and widen (Kai Tiaki, 2014).
Communication skills can improve opinion leaders abilities. It is important that communication allows everyone’s voice to be heard, in an open, non-combative manner. In order for piers and other staff to have a positive trusting relationship with the opinion leader, they must feel as though they are being heard and also guided in difficult situations (Pollard & Wild, 2014).
By the end of the summer, I am hoping my schedule allows me to become a preceptor for new graduates. I view that role as being an opinion leader for an individual, which would progress to a small group. I would love the opportunity to mold new fellows with everything I have learned so far as a postpartum nurse. When a newer nurse comes to me for advice, I want them to feel safe. My goal is never to talk down to someone making him or her feel inadequate for coming to me for help in the first place. If I do not know how to solve the issue I have been made aware of, I seek guidance from another senior nurse. I feel as though a good opinion leader wants others to seek their guidance instead of possibly making a mistake.

Discussion: Team Dynamics
As healthcare providers, we should aim to provide safe and quality care to patients while working with other members of the interdisciplinary team. However, teamwork is not always easy. I would like to explicate some of the characteristics of the interdisciplinary team that can prove to be beneficial to teamwork, as well as those that can hinder the teamwork process.
I feel the most important aspect of teamwork is proper communication. Without communication, information cannot be conveyed to other members of the team. According to Lavoie-Tremblay et al. (2014) “team building requires considerable attention to interpersonal and communication skills” (p. 23). Members of the team must also share respect for one another and act in a professional manner through team interactions. Also, I think it is important for each team member to know the role they play within the team. In a study where a Learning Collaborative Program was initiated to help providers learn how to work in a team, they discovered the “teams needed opportunities to first learn about each other’s scope of practice and skill sets, develop a common language for communication, and understand how their scope of practice can be leveraged to improve team functioning and patient care” (Kotecha et al., 2015, p. 228).
There is always another side to every story. There are some conditions that make teamwork in healthcare very difficult. Teamwork can be even more complicated when healthcare providers must make ethical decisions. The members of the interdisciplinary team have different personalities and perspectives that can affect teamwork. Hamric, Hanson, Tracy, and O’Grady (2014) postulate that “these differing positions can lead to creative and collaborative decision making or to a breakdown in communication and lack of problem solving” (p. 329). Other aspects identified by Lavoie-Tremblay et al. (2014) that can impact teamwork are psychological demands (of the job), social support (from colleagues and superiors), effort-reward balance, and healthcare providers’ experience with patients (p. 19). These aspects can impact teamwork in a positive or negative way.

Business Report: Poor Employee Performance

Solution
s Ltd (NWSL) have been found to be performing poorly because they rarely meet the objectives that have set for them. For this reason, the company is facing problems in the market because its competitiveness is very low. It has been unable to meet its targets and this is having a negative impact on its general performance. Keeping in mind that the employees are the driving force of any organization, their poor performance implies that the organization cannot perform as expected. It is, therefore, necessary for corrective measures to be put in place to ensure that employees are able to perform as expected of them by the organization as well as other stakeholders.
The performance of employees is greatly affected by motivation and this implies that the organization should find out the different reasons as to why employees are not motivated and solve the
