Week 3 - Discussion No unread replies.No replies. Your initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses. Refer to the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric under the Settings icon above for guidance on how your discussion will be evaluated. Addressing and Confronting Bias and Prejudice Prior to beginning work on this discussion, please read Chapters 8, 12, and 13 in DSM 5 Made Easy: The Clinician’s Guide to Diagnosis ; Chapter 2 in Turning Points in Dynamic Psychotherapy: Initial Assessment, Boundaries, Money, Disruptions and Suicidal Crises; Chapter 5 in The Psychiatric Interview: Evaluation and Diagnosis; all required articles; and review the PSY645 Fictional Sociocultural Case Studies (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. document. One of the most important aspects of developing competence in psychopathology is to be as honestly and completely aware as possible of your personal attitudes toward people who have mental health conditions. Through this awareness, we are better able to challenge our own biases and prejudicial views in order to be more open to the findings within scholarly research. For your initial post in this discussion, choose one of the three case studies from the PSY645 Fictional Sociocultural Case Studies (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site. document, and write a detailed description of your uncensored personal observation of the patient depicted. Describe at least one theoretical orientation you would use to conceptualize your view of the patient’s problem and how it may have developed. Identify the issues you might focus on in treatment with this patient. Be sure to identify within your post which of the three case studies you have chosen. Guided Response: Review several of your colleagues’ posts, and respond to at least two of your peers by 11:59 p.m. on Day 7 of the week. You are encouraged to post your required replies earlier in the week to promote more meaningful interactive discourse in this discussion. Examine your colleague’s initial post, and formulate a possible response. Research a minimum of two peer-reviewed articles that support the views presented in your response. Compose a response that uses a sociocultural perspective to assess the validity of your colleague’s observation and his or her proposed direction of treatment. Outline any biases or prejudicial views you observe in your colleague’s post which may affect their conceptualization of the patient’s problems. Remember that your colleague is being open and honest regarding his or her personal views; therefore, your task is to provide persuasive information to encourage your colleague to adopt a view that is supported by peer-reviewed literature. Pay close attention to the tone of your response to ensure your colleague will not become def ...

Codependency
The term “codependency” arose in the 1970s in reference to the changes one person makes to adjust to the addiction of another. For some, the term has broadened somewhat to include focusing on the needs of others to the exclusion of their own needs. However, controversy surrounds the term—some believe that codependency is nonexistent.
Do you think codependency exists in the family members .
Week 3 Humanistic TheoriesThe good life is a process, not a sta.docx
Week 3: Humanistic Theories
The good life is a process, not a state of being. It is a direction, not a destination.
—Carl Rogers
Humanistic theories can empower clients to find meaning within their lives. While people subjectively consider their insights, emotions, and actions, how might you objectively employ interventions in both a genuine and approachable manner? Being a humanistic/existential counselor requires that you enter into the phenomenological world of your clients, which means that you gain a true understanding of the way they have perceived the experiences in their lives. By demonstrating this understanding, you provide genuine empathy. Feelings of empathy can evoke an environment where mutual trust is understood, thus allowing you to partner with clients in their journeys to acquire a deeper understanding of themselves.
This week, you will review person-centered theory, observe the application of this approach by watching a media demonstration, and apply the person-centered approach to one of the case studies used in this course.
Learning Objectives
Students will:
· Identify theorists, timeframes, and major constructs of individual theories
· Analyze techniques/interventions associated with individual theories
· Evaluate theories in relation to cases

Discussion: Person-Centered Counseling: Case Conceptualization
For this Discussion, you will write a case conceptualization just as you did last week, but this time as though you were a person-centered counselor. A case conceptualization is a report that is written by a counselor to explain presenting problems, establish goals, plan interventions, and identify expected outcomes.
As you review this week's Learning Resources and media file, note techniques and interventions, and consider the role of a person-centered counselor in planning treatment. Further, reflect on person-centered therapy with respect to developing your own theoretical orientation. In what ways do you find that person-centered therapy resonates with your own point of view?
To Prepare:
· Review the person-centered expressive arts therapy video from this week's Learning Resources. Take note of language and techniques used by the counselor that are specific to this theory.
· Review the Psychoanalytic Case Conceptualization Example found in this week’s Learning Resources and use this document to prepare your initial Discussion post.

Discussion: Strengths-Based Perspective
Simply put, a social worker with a “strengths-based perspective” emphasizes client strengths as a starting point in addressing challenges. This perspective relies on the notion that every client has strengths that can be leveraged to create productive change and progress toward achievement of goals. Client strengths can include a variety of attributes, from complex professional skill sets or well-developed emotional intelligence to mobility, literacy, or good health.
For this Discussion, think about your family of origin. Consider the strengths particular to your family of origin. Imagine how those strengths might play a part in helping your family to overcome a challenging situation.

Discussion 1: Engaging and Assessing Across Levels of Social Work Practice
Maintaining the perspective that people are in constant interaction with their environment and the social systems therein (the Person in Environment perspective) is a key concept in the field of social work. Social work recognizes that the concerns or problems individuals face might be due to many causes. This view also supports another goal of social work which is to empower clients who are marginalized and oppressed to collaborate in the resolution of their problems or concerns as experts of their life experiences. As such, looking at a problem and assessing the needs of individuals depends on a review of the challenges they have encountered on the micro, mezzo, and macro levels. Assessing the situation on all three levels will provide a holistic map for goal planning. For example, you might assess a client’s individual strengths and challenges, the support or lack .

Please include a separate page for references. Quoted material should be used sparingly.
• 10 pts.: Clearly define and describe the dimensions of the public health problem in a well developed introduction. If relevant, present recent prevalence and incidence rates, and/or morbidity and mortality associated with the problem. Show your reader why this is a public health concern that should be addressed.
• 40 pts.: Drawing from sociological literature, analyze the roots of the problem, identifying at least three specific sociological aspects (cultural, economic, educational, political, etc.) that contribute to the problem. All evidence must be carefully cited.
• 20 pts.: Propose two social policy measures or programs to combat the public health problem or alleviate its impact. You may develop your own policies/programs or describe existing programs. The policies should be a natural extension of your analysis. In other words, they should be linked to one or more social roots of the problem.
• 10 pts.: Discuss potential strengths and weaknesses of your proposed policies. Consider obstacles to implementation as well as opportunities for implementation.
• 10 pts.: Prepare a clear conclusion that offers a general review of the problem and briefly proposes avenues of future research and policy intervention.
• 10 pts.: Overall quality of your paper. This includes both the depth of your analysis and the quality of your writing. Keep in mind that writing concisely is an important scholarly skill, so do follow the 4 page length guidelines.
Case II: Childhood Trauma as a Public Health Crisis
Key Question: How can we address childhood trauma? Children who experience maltreatment are more likely to suffer from impaired brain development, impaired cognitive learning, and depression, and to be at higher risk for heart disease, lung disease, liver disease, high blood pressure, and cancer. Child abuse and neglect has been identified as a red flag in Springfield,3 reflected in preschool suspension and expulsion rates in Springfield, which are twice the Missouri rate and 17 times higher than national K-12 rates.
Your task is (1) to carefully describe the dimensions of childhood trauma from a public health perspective; (2) to identify specific sociological roots of this problem using scholarly and other credible sources; (3) to discuss the consequences of the problem, and (4) articulate one micro- and one macrolevel policy to address it.

Discussion: Assessing Musculoskeletal Pain
The body is constantly sending signals about its health. One of the most easily recognized signals is pain. Musculoskeletal conditions comprise one of the leading causes of severe long-term pain in patients. The musculoskeletal system is an elaborate system of interconnected levers that provides the body with support and mobility. Because of the interconnectedness of the musculoskeletal system, identifying the causes of pain can be challenging. Accurately interpreting the cause of musculoskeletal pain requires an assessment process informed by patient history and physical exams.
In this Discussion, you will consider case studies that describe abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting.
To prepare:
· Your Discussion post should be in the Episodic/Focused SOAP Note format rather than the traditional narrative style Discussion posting format. Refer to Chapter 2 of the Sullivan text and the Episodic/Focused SOAP Template in the Week 5 Learning Resources for guidance. Remember that all Episodic/Focused SOAP notes have specific data included in every patient case.
· Review the following case studies:
With regard to the case study, you were assigned:
· Review this week's Learning Resources and consider the insights they provide about the case study.
· Consider what history would be necessary to collect from the patient in the case study you were assigned.
· Consider what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be appropriate to gather more information about the patient's condition. How would the results be used to make a diagnosis?
· Identify at least five possible conditions that may be considered in a differential diagnosis for the patient.
Note: Before you submit your initial post, replace the subject line ("Discussion - Week 8") with "Review of Case Study ___." Fill in the blank with the number of the case study you were assigned.
By Day 3 of Week 8
Post an episodic/focused note about the patient in the case study to which you were assigned using the episodic/focused note template provided in the Week 5 resources. Provide evidence from the literature to support diagnostic tests that would be appropriate for each case. List five different possible conditions for the patient's differential diagnosis, and justify why you selected each.
Note: For this Discussion, you are required to complete your initial post before you will be able to view and respond to your colleagues’ postings. Begin by clicking on the "Post to Discussion Question" link, and then select "Create Thread" to complete your initial post. Remember, once you click on Submit, you cannot delete or edit your own posts, and you cannot post anonymously. Please check your post carefully before clicking on Submit!

Case II: Childhood Trauma as a Public Health Crisis
Key Question: How can we address childhood trauma? Children who experience maltreatment are more likely to suffer from impaired brain development, impaired cognitive learning, and depression, and to be at higher risk for heart disease, lung disease, liver disease, high blood pressure, and cancer. Child abuse and neglect has been identified as a red flag in Springfield,3 reflected in preschool suspension and expulsion rates in Springfield, which are twice the Missouri rate and 17 times higher than national K-12 rates.
Your task is (1) to carefully describe the dimensions of childhood trauma from a public health perspective; (2) to identify specific sociological roots of this problem using scholarly and other credible sources; (3) to discuss the consequences of the problem, and (4) articulate one micro- and one macrolevel policy to address it.

Discussion: Assessing Musculoskeletal Pain
The body is constantly sending signals about its health. One of the most easily recognized signals is pain. Musculoskeletal conditions comprise one of the leading causes of severe long-term pain in patients. The musculoskeletal system is an elaborate system of interconnected levers that provides the body with support and mobility. Because of the interconnectedness of the musculoskeletal system, identifying the causes of pain can be challenging. Accurately interpreting the cause of musculoskeletal pain requires an assessment process informed by patient history and physical exams.
In this Discussion, you will consider case studies that describe abnormal findings in patients seen in a clinical setting.
To prepare:
· Your Discussion post should be in the Episodic/Focused SOAP Note format rather than the traditional narrative style Discussion posting format. Refer to Chapter 2 of the Sullivan text and the Episodic/Focused SOAP Template in the Week 5 Learning Resources for guidance. Remember that all Episodic/Focused SOAP notes have specific data included in every patient case.
· Review the following case studies:
With regard to the case study, you were assigned:
· Review this week's Learning Resources and consider the insights they provide about the case study.
· Consider what history would be necessary to collect from the patient in the case study you were assigned.
· Consider what physical exams and diagnostic tests would be appropriate to gather more information about the patient's condition. How would the results be used to make a diagnosis?
· Identify at least five possible conditions that may be considered in a differential diagnosis for the patient.
Note: Before you submit your initial post, replace the subject line ("Discussion - Week 8") with "Review of Case Study ___." Fill in the blank with the number of the case study you were assigned.
By Day 3 of Week 8
Post an episodic/focused note about the patient in the case study to which you were assigned using the episodic/focused note template provided in the Week 5 resources. Provide evidence from the literature to support diagnostic tests that would be appropriate for each case. List five different possible conditions for the patient's differential diagnosis, and justify why you selected each.
Note: For this Discussion, you are required to complete your initial post before you will be able to view and respond to your colleagues’ postings. Begin by clicking on the "Post to Discussion Question" link, and then select "Create Thread" to complete your initial post.

Development of INR – Week 3
Machiavelli
• Who was Machiavelli? Why is he important for
Political Realism?
• Florentine writer/diplomat between 1469-1527. Born
in a context of continuous crisis and warfare.
• It was not uncommon, for example, for Popes
themselves to lead armies in Italy against other city-
states – but especially against Holy Roman Emperor.
• Machiavelli experiences the unrelenting attempts by
various European powers to assert their hegemony
in Northern Italy – Chapter 26 of The Prince, is
basically a call to the Medici to use the opportunity of
chaos in Italy to lead it towards unification and glory.
Cont.
• Wrote two main works, The Prince and The Discourses
on Livy. The latter is an extended commentary on Livy’s
history of the foundation and history of Rome until about
300 BC – corresponds to the Third Samnite War.
• The interest in The Discourse on Livy is also to
contextualize Machiavelli the writer of the Prince –
concern with not just the acquisition of power; but with the
emergence and maintenance of a republic during periods
of crisis or political turbulence.
• Machiavelli – A retrieval of a type of pagan knowledge of
politics.
• A reemphasis on a non-eschatological temporality to
understand politics.
Virtù
• Because of constant conflict the Prince needs
to possess certain qualities to ‘maintain his
state’ and “increase his power’.
• Virtù: possessing the knowledge and will to do
what needs to be done even if it may be
considered evil.
• The Prince must possess a “flexible disposition”
(Chapter 18).
• Implies an ability of adaptation to changing
political circumstances.
Fortuna
• What undermines political order.
Circumstances that can emerge to undermine
the Prince’s power or security.
• Machiavelli: Fortuna is “one of our destructive
rivers which, when it is angry, turns the plains
into lakes, throws down the trees and buildings,
takes earth from one spot, puts it in another;
everyone flees before the flood; everyone
yields to its fury and nowhere can repel it.”
Cont.
• Machiavelli: “I conclude therefore that, fortune being changeful
and mankind steadfast in their ways, so long as the two are in
agreement men are successful, but unsuccessful when they fall
out. For my part I consider that it is better to be adventurous than
cautious, because fortune is a woman, and if you wish to keep
her under it is necessary to beat and ill-use her; and it is seen
that she allows herself to be mastered by the adventurous rather
than by those who go to work more coldly. She is, therefore,
always, woman-like, a lover of young men, because they are
less cautious, more violent, and with more audacity command
her.”

• Politics is not just about mastery; it’s also about foundation,
beginning, natality.

Lucy LawlessBenitoCereno has three sources of narration.docx
Lucy Lawless
Benito
Cereno
has three sources of narration:
1. A limited third person narration that divides in two:
a. Primarily, the narrator limits him/herself to the thoughts and perceptions of Amasa Delano, so everything is described from Delano's persepective.
b. At times, the narrator demonstrates fuller knowledge than Delano has, even lightly criticizing Delano's naivete: in particular, the third person narrator seems already to be familiar with the events described in the deposition.
2. The objective, impersonal third person narration of the deposition, which records (an edited version of) the official law documents associated with the case of the
San Dominick.
No particular narrator is associated with the deposition, but it's obviously coming from some source. Just for fun, I call the seemingly invisible, un-identifiable narrator of the Deposition Lucy Lawless.
So here's the question for you to consider: Can you name any aspect of Lucy Lawless's account that might be inaccurate, biased, or incomplete? If so, can you identify a person from the story who might be able to provide a more complete, less biased, or more accurate version of that aspect of the story? If not, please explain why you believe that Lucy Lawless tells the whole truth and nothing but the truth, accurately and without prejudice. Please post your ideas in an original thread, providing accurate and precise cited evidence to illustrate your thinking, and explain the evidence that you provide, as necessary.
Then, respond thoughtfully to at least one post from a classmate. A 'thoughtful' response will a) reinforce the evidence by pointing out other examples of the same theme and/or b) extend the logic by thinking about the idea: quibbling with the interpretation, considering the implications of the claim, identifying seeming internal contradictions, identifying fundamental assumptions, refining distinctions, etcetera. Avoid simply agreeing or amplifying another's claim. Thoughtful posts must be original, and may not repeat posts made by others.

Thomas' Take on the Law Rooted in 18th Century;
The justice's historical perspective challenges many widely held beliefs about the
Constitution.
David G. Savage, Times Staff Writer
Justice Clarence Thomas may be silent in the Supreme Court during public arguments, but he is not shy about
making bold pronounc ements in written opinions.
His latest challenge to conventional wisdom came this week in the Pledge of Allegiance case, when he opined
that the Constitution protected a state's right to recognize an official church.
Almost everyone has assumed that the opposite is true.
It is not the first time Thomas has tried to turn the standard thinking on its head when it comes to understanding
key parts of the U.S. Constitution. He has done so by focusing on the words and history of the document as it
was written in 1787.
"He likes to say we should look at this afresh. Our law is muddled, and we should rethink it," Yale Law School
professor Akhil Amar said admir ingly of Thomas.
But the conseque nces o f his "re thinking" co uld be far-re aching.
For example, Thomas has argued that the word "commerce" in the Constitution should be understood as it was
in the 18th century: the movement of goods across state lines. Under this view, the states could not erect tariffs
or other barriers to the free flow of goods.
In the 20th century, however, the Supreme Court adopted a much broader view of commerce, relying on that
definition to uphold federal laws that set minimum wages, prohibited discrimination in the workplace,
protected the environment or regulat ed the manufac ture of products, in cluding autos and drugs.
In a separate 1995 opinion, Thomas said that this broad view conflicted with the Constitution and should be
reconsidered. If his colleagues ever agree, many of today's workplace laws would be struck down.
Soon after joining the court in 1991, Thomas wrote that the word "punishment" in the Constitution restricted
only "judges, not jailers." The high court had adopted a broader view of the ban on "cruel and unusual
punishment" in the 1970s and protected prisoners from being subjected to needlessly cruel treatment.
When Thomas denounced this view as flatly mistaken, Justice Harry A. Blackmun pointed out that his opinion
would permit the t orture of inmate s by prison guards.
Two years ago, Thomas condemned the doctrine supporting the separation of church and state, saying it grew
out of "anti-Catholic bigotry" during the 19th century. Then, Protestants controlled the public schools, and
immigrant Catholics set up their own schools to escape the Protestant influence, he said.
Beginning in the 1940s, a unanimous Supreme Court said that the 1st Amendment erected a "wall of separation
between church and state," quoting Thomas Jefferson. Relying on that view, the court in the early 1960s struck
down state-sponsored prayers and Bible readings in the public schools. Later, the justice.

Lots of people are frustrated with politics in America today.One.docx
Lots of people are frustrated with politics in America today.
One common complaint is that they two-party system is at fault. People making this complaint worry that, for example, political views not represented by the two parties – Republicans and Democrats – are excluded from political discourse. Or that having only two parties limits the choices available on election day, and if neither candidate is desirable, there’s no one left to choose.
But there is another view, as you’ve read. This other view is that blaming the two-party system for today’s problems is misguided. This argument says, among other things, that citizens of other countries with multi-party systems are no more satisfied with the state of their politics than Americans are with ours. We blame the two-party system, they say, because we think “the grass is always greener on the other side,” when really it’s not.
And, they argue, we don’t really have a two-party system, anyway. As recently as 1992, a third party, the Reform Party, got almost 19% of the national popular vote in a presidential election. But is this a good argument when, having earned 19% of the popular vote, the reform party got no electoral votes?
Given what you’ve read, what do you think about the two-party system? Should we do something to change it? If so, what?

Looking ahead in your DBA program, the final step in the course sequ.docx
Looking ahead in your DBA program, the final step in the course sequence is a comprehensive exam. Students must successfully pass the comprehensive exam before moving on to the dissertation phase.
Your preparation for the comprehensive exam should have already started via your study in previous courses, self-documentation of your learning, and completion of the reflection journals with your mentor.
For the Week 3 paper, you will provide an annotated outline that:
Segments the OB field into at least three broad categories. You may have more than three categories, but the minimum for this assignment is three. For example:
Individual
Group/Team
Organizational/Environmental
Provides a set of core topics beneath each of the broad categories. At this point in your doctoral development, you must have at least five core topics for each category (thus, a minimum of fifteen total). You may have more than five topics for each category (and eventually you will in your preparation for the exam!) but the minimum for this assignment is five topics for each of your categories (or, at least a total of fifteen topics if you have more than three categories).
Integrates one annotated resource (key author—with brief description or bullet points of important points the author makes about the topic) for your fifteen core topics. You may provide more than one resource per topic, but you must have at least one resource each for a minimum of fifteen topics.
Synthesizes key learning from working on the guide, next steps you will take working on your guide, and potential benefits beyond comprehensive exam preparation.
Sample Structure:
Summary assessment of your three (or more) part schema. What is it? Why is it an appropriate way to view the OB field?

Problem Statement
The bank has faced a high increase in cross-selling scandal cases, which has profoundly damaged its reputation. The mission and the value of the bank were to satisfy the customer's needs and help them succeed financially. Contrarily, a close look at the scandal and reasons for its existence went far away from the bank key goal.
Problem Statement Worksheet
Organizational problem
Organizational Ethics
The most affected stakeholder by the problem
The problem is most likely to affect the company staff, shareholders as well as customers. The Cross-selling scandal means fewer earnings for the shareholder, who are the critical beneficiaries of the profits attained through daily transactions (Tayan, 2019). The money lost at the course of the scandal will significantly reduce regular earnings. Customers of the bank are also other victims of the problem; the bank staff uses unethical means to exploit money from customers when unable to meet their daily targets.
The employees of the company were also affected by the problem; those found guilty of opening new accounts without customer permission were laid off their duties. Opening of unauthorized customer accounts was fueled by high targets, which were set by the management (Klemash et al. 2019).
Type of the problem
The problem is based on self-interests, knowledge, and skills among the staff and poor organizational structure (Klemash et al. 2019). The action of the bank staff to exploit money from the customers to attain their daily targets is entirely unethical.
Suspect causes
Among the critical causes of the problem are the splitting of customer deposits, overbearing sales culture, employees’ misconducts, excessive pressure of employees by the top management, and Illicit practices (Tayan, 2019).
Improvement goal and the long-term impact
The main goal is to identify a solution to the five leading causes of the scandal, which will help prevent the company staff from participating in any unethical practice that is not in line with its goals.
Impacts to the stakeholders
The cross-selling scandal has caused significant loss of finances to both customers and company shareholders.
Customers were able to lose significant amounts of money, which was withdrawn from their accounts without their consent.
Solution
proposal
The company should consider making the roles of different executive directors clear. Having a clear and distinct role will help in holding individual staff accountable. Caution employees from doing any form of the transaction without customers' permission.
Those found guilty of exploiting customers for self-interests should be laid off their duties and prosecuted in a court of law.
Final problem statement
The cross-selling cases which go against organizational ethics have highly increased among the bank employees. The targets set by the management are putting employees under pressure to perfo.

Hi everyone! You've now completed three weeks of NR631 (assuming that your literature review is done), and you are ready to move forward to week 4. I'll be grading your TD participation hopefully on Monday and then I'll work on your literature review assignments starting on Tuesday. This is a more extensive assignment and I have assignments due in other courses so it might take me a little longer to get your lit reviews back. I'm anticipating some excellent literature review on your great CGE topics 😎. Let's take a look at what lies ahead in week 4...
Introduction
In week 4, the lesson title is "Communication in Project Management" and we'll be addressing the following course outcomes:
CO #1: Apply leadership skills of project management as a nurse executive in an organizational setting to develop, implement, and evaluate successful project plans (PO 4,5)
CO #3: Exemplify professional values and scholarship that support the role of a student in a practicum setting (PO 4) (this is in reference to your time at your practicum site and you'll see this each week)
CO #5: Apply professional values characteristic of the competent and caring nurse executive that promotes holistic care principles and an appreciation of cultural humility (PO 1,3,4)
I encourage you to keep these course outcomes in mind while you read your text, articles, and lessons, as you participate in TDs, as you participate in practicum hours, and as you complete assignments.
Reading:
Your week 4 reading consists of three articles from peer reviewed journals. Two would be considered "scholarly" by Chamberlain definition as they are within five years old. The Culo article is from 2010 but it's a very good article so I decided to keep it. Please be sure to read these articles prior to constructing your initial TD post.
Lesson:
This week's lesson is about communication and building a communication plan. One point the lesson brings out is that, like most of the templates we are using, many organizations have their own formats or templates. I encourage you to reach out to the PM professionals in your organization and ask about this and compare our template to what you use in your organization. If your organization doesn't use a communication plan, it may be something you can suggest as a value added step.
Collaboration Cafe ☕️:
The week 4 discussion is a Collaboration Cafe ☕️! As with all TDs and Collaboration Cafe's the reduced participation guidelines are in effect for those who need them. I will be reviewing posts each day to make sure you're headed in the right direction. A note of interest...this CC is actually based on an idea that an NR631 student shared in the old week 4 TD. I thought it was such a great thought that I used it (with her permission) to form this learning activity. I hope you enjoy it and I look forward to the knowledge you'll build!

MachiavelliDevelopment of INR – Week 3Machiavelli.docx
Machiavelli
Development of INR – Week 3
Machiavelli
• Who was Machiavelli? Why is he important for
Political Realism?
• Florentine writer/diplomat between 1469-1527. Born
in a context of continuous crisis and warfare.
• It was not uncommon, for example, for Popes
themselves to lead armies in Italy against other city-
states – but especially against Holy Roman Emperor.
• Machiavelli experiences the unrelenting attempts by
various European powers to assert their hegemony
in Northern Italy – Chapter 26 of The Prince, is
basically a call to the Medici to use the opportunity of
chaos in Italy to lead it towards unification and glory.
Cont.
• Wrote two main works, The Prince and The Discourses
on Livy. The latter is an extended commentary on Livy’s
history of the foundation and history of Rome until about
300 BC – corresponds to the Third Samnite War.
• The interest in The Discourse on Livy is also to
contextualize Machiavelli the writer of the Prince –
concern with not just the acquisition of power; but with the
emergence and maintenance of a republic during periods
of crisis or political turbulence.
• Machiavelli – A retrieval of a type of pagan knowledge of
politics.
• A reemphasis on a non-eschatological temporality to
understand politics.
Virtù
• Because of constant conflict the Prince needs
to possess certain qualities to ‘maintain his
state’ and “increase his power’.
• Virtù: possessing the knowledge and will to do
what needs to be done even if it may be
considered evil.
• The Prince must possess a “flexible disposition”
(Chapter 18).
• Implies an ability of adaptation to changing
political circumstances.
Fortuna
• What undermines political order.
Circumstances that can emerge to undermine
the Prince’s power or security.
• Machiavelli: Fortuna is “one of our destructive
rivers which, when it is angry, turns the plains
into lakes, throws down the trees and buildings,
takes earth from one spot, puts it in another;
everyone flees before the flood; everyone
yields to its fury and nowhere can repel it.”
Cont.
• Machiavelli: “I conclude therefore that, fortune being changeful
and mankind steadfast in their ways, so long as the two are in
agreement men are successful, but unsuccessful when they fall
out. For my part I consider that it is better to be adventurous than
cautious, because fortune is a woman, and if you wish to keep
her under it is necessary to beat and ill-use her; and it is seen
that she allows herself to be mastered by the adventurous rather
than by those who go to work more coldly. She is, therefore,
always, woman-like, a lover of young men, because they are
less cautious, more violent, and with more audacity command
her.”
• Sexualized Imagery: What does it imply?
• Politics is not just about mastery; it’s also about foundation,
beginning, natality.
• Catherine Zuckert: “The task of the price is not only to dominate
but also to create, to give life to.

Lucy Lawless
Benito
Cereno
has three sources of narration:
1. A limited third person narration that divides in two:
a. Primarily, the narrator limits him/herself to the thoughts and perceptions of Amasa Delano, so everything is described from Delano's persepective.
b. At times, the narrator demonstrates fuller knowledge than Delano has, even lightly criticizing Delano's naivete: in particular, the third person narrator seems already to be familiar with the events described in the deposition.
2. The objective, impersonal third person narration of the deposition, which records (an edited version of) the official law documents associated with the case of the
San Dominick.
No particular narrator is associated with the deposition, but it's obviously coming from some source. Just for fun, I call the seemingly invisible, un-identifiable narrator of the Deposition Lucy Lawless.
So here's the question for you to consider: Can you name any aspect of Lucy Lawless's account that might be inaccurate, biased, or incomplete? If so, can you identify a person from the story who might be able to provide a more complete, less biased, or more accurate version of that aspect of the story? If not, please explain why you believe that Lucy Lawless tells the whole truth and nothing but the truth, accurately and without prejudice. Please post your ideas in an original thread, providing accurate and precise cited evidence to illustrate your thinking, and explain the evidence that you provide, as necessary.
Then, respond thoughtfully to at least one post from a classmate. A 'thoughtful' response will a) reinforce the evidence by pointing out other examples of the same theme and/or b) extend the logic by thinking about the idea: quibbling with the interpretation, considering the implications of the claim, identifying seeming internal contradictions, identifying fundamental assumptions, refining distinctions, etcetera. Avoid simply agreeing or amplifying another's claim. Thoughtful posts must be original, and may not repeat posts made by others.

Thomas' Take on the Law Rooted in 18th Century;
The justice's historical perspective challenges many widely held beliefs about the
Constitution.
David G. Savage, Times Staff Writer
Justice Clarence Thomas may be silent in the Supreme Court during public arguments, but he is not shy about
making bold pronounc ements in written opinions.
His latest challenge to conventional wisdom came this week in the Pledge of Allegiance case, when he opined
that the Constitution protected a state's right to recognize an official church.
Almost everyone has assumed that the opposite is true.
It is not the first time Thomas has tried to turn the standard thinking on its head when it comes to understanding
key parts of the U.S. Constitution. He has done so by focusing on the words and history of the document as it
was written in 1787.
"He likes to say we should look at this afresh. Our law is muddled, and we should rethink it," Yale Law School
professor Akhil Amar said admir ingly of Thomas.
But the conseque nces o f his "re thinking" co uld be far-re aching.
For example, Thomas has argued that the word "commerce" in the Constitution should be understood as it was
in the 18th century: the movement of goods across state lines. Under this view, the states could not erect tariffs
or other barriers to the free flow of goods.
In the 20th century, however, the Supreme Court adopted a much broader view of commerce, relying on that
definition to uphold federal laws that set minimum wages, prohibited discrimination in the workplace,
protected the environment or regulat ed the manufac ture of products, in cluding autos and drugs.
In a separate 1995 opinion, Thomas said that this broad view conflicted with the Constitution and should be
reconsidered. If his colleagues ever agree, many of today's workplace laws would be struck down.
Soon after joining the court in 1991, Thomas wrote that the word "punishment" in the Constitution restricted
only "judges, not jailers." The high court had adopted a broader view of the ban on "cruel and unusual
punishment" in the 1970s and protected prisoners from being subjected to needlessly cruel treatment.
When Thomas denounced this view as flatly mistaken, Justice Harry A. Blackmun pointed out that his opinion
would permit the t orture of inmate s by prison guards.
Two years ago, Thomas condemned the doctrine supporting the separation of church and state, saying it grew
out of "anti-Catholic bigotry" during the 19th century. Then, Protestants controlled the public schools, and
immigrant Catholics set up their own schools to escape the Protestant influence, he said.
Beginning in the 1940s, a unanimous Supreme Court said that the 1st Amendment erected a "wall of separation
between church and state," quoting Thomas Jefferson. Relying on that view, the court in the early 1960s struck
down state-sponsored prayers and Bible readings in the public schools. Later, the justice.

Machiavelli
Development of INR – Week 3
Machiavelli
Who was Machiavelli? Why is he important for Political Realism?
Florentine writer/diplomat between 1469-1527. Born in a context of continuous crisis and warfare.
It was not uncommon, for example, for Popes themselves to lead armies in Italy against other city-states – but especially against Holy Roman Emperor.
Machiavelli experiences the unrelenting attempts by various European powers to assert their hegemony in Northern Italy – Chapter 26 of The Prince, is basically a call to the Medici to use the opportunity of chaos in Italy to lead it towards unification and glory.
Cont.
Wrote two main works, The Prince and The Discourses on Livy. The latter is an extended commentary on Livy’s history of the foundation and history of Rome until about 300 BC – corresponds to the Third Samnite War.
The interest in The Discourse on Livy is also to contextualize Machiavelli the writer of the Prince – concern with not just the acquisition of power; but with the emergence and maintenance of a republic during periods of crisis or political turbulence.
Machiavelli – A retrieval of a type of pagan knowledge of politics.
A reemphasis on a non-eschatological temporality to understand politics.
Virtù
Because of constant conflict the Prince needs to possess certain qualities to ‘maintain his state’ and “increase his power’.
Virtù: possessing the knowledge and will to do what needs to be done even if it may be considered evil.
The Prince must possess a “flexible disposition” (Chapter 18).
Implies an ability of adaptation to changing political circumstances.
Fortuna
What undermines political order. Circumstances that can emerge to undermine the Prince’s power or security.
Machiavelli: Fortuna is “one of our destructive rivers which, when it is angry, turns the plains into lakes, throws down the trees and buildings, takes earth from one spot, puts it in another; everyone flees before the flood; everyone yields to its fury and nowhere can repel it.”
Cont.
Machiavelli: “I conclude therefore that, fortune being changeful and mankind steadfast in their ways, so long as the two are in agreement men are successful, but unsuccessful when they fall out. For my part I consider that it is better to be adventurous than cautious, because fortune is a woman, and if you wish to keep her under it is necessary to beat and ill-use her; and it is seen that she allows herself to be mastered by the adventurous rather than by those who go to work more coldly. She is, therefore, always, woman-like, a lover of young men, because they are less cautious, more violent, and with more audacity command her.”
Sexualized Imagery: What does it imply?
Politics is not just about mastery; it’s also about foundation, beginning, natality.
Catherine Zuckert: “The task of the price is not only to dominate but also to create, to give life to a new being.”
Implications
Separation of God and Fortuna.
Medieval Theology: Fortuna is divine will.

Lots of people are frustrated with politics in America today.One.docx
Lots of people are frustrated with politics in America today.
One common complaint is that they two-party system is at fault. People making this complaint worry that, for example, political views not represented by the two parties – Republicans and Democrats – are excluded from political discourse. Or that having only two parties limits the choices available on election day, and if neither candidate is desirable, there’s no one left to choose.
But there is another view, as you’ve read. This other view is that blaming the two-party system for today’s problems is misguided. This argument says, among other things, that citizens of other countries with multi-party systems are no more satisfied with the state of their politics than Americans are with ours. We blame the two-party system, they say, because we think “the grass is always greener on the other side,” when really it’s not.
And, they argue, we don’t really have a two-party system, anyway. As recently as 1992, a third party, the Reform Party, got almost 19% of the national popular vote in a presidential election. But is this a good argument when, having earned 19% of the popular vote, the reform party got no electoral votes?
Given what you’ve read, what do you think about the two-party system? Should we do something to change it? If so, what?

Looking ahead in your DBA program, the final step in the course sequ.docx
Looking ahead in your DBA program, the final step in the course sequence is a comprehensive exam. Students must successfully pass the comprehensive exam before moving on to the dissertation phase.
Your preparation for the comprehensive exam should have already started via your study in previous courses, self-documentation of your learning, and completion of the reflection journals with your mentor.
For the Week 3 paper, you will provide an annotated outline that:
Segments the OB field into at least three broad categories. You may have more than three categories, but the minimum for this assignment is three. For example:
Individual
Group/Team
Organizational/Environmental
Provides a set of core topics beneath each of the broad categories. At this point in your doctoral development, you must have at least five core topics for each category (thus, a minimum of fifteen total). You may have more than five topics for each category (and eventually you will in your preparation for the exam!) but the minimum for this assignment is five topics for each of your categories (or, at least a total of fifteen topics if you have more than three categories).
Integrates one annotated resource (key author—with brief description or bullet points of important points the author makes about the topic) for your fifteen core topics. You may provide more than one resource per topic, but you must have at least one resource each for a minimum of fifteen topics.
Synthesizes key learning from working on the guide, next steps you will take working on your guide, and potential benefits beyond comprehensive exam preparation.
Sample Structure:
Summary assessment of your three (or more) part schema. What is it? Why is it an appropriate way to view the OB field?

Problem Statement
The bank has faced a high increase in cross-selling scandal cases, which has profoundly damaged its reputation. The mission and the value of the bank were to satisfy the customer's needs and help them succeed financially. Contrarily, a close look at the scandal and reasons for its existence went far away from the bank key goal.
Problem Statement Worksheet
Organizational problem
Organizational Ethics
The most affected stakeholder by the problem
The problem is most likely to affect the company staff, shareholders as well as customers. The Cross-selling scandal means fewer earnings for the shareholder, who are the critical beneficiaries of the profits attained through daily transactions (Tayan, 2019). The money lost at the course of the scandal will significantly reduce regular earnings. Customers of the bank are also other victims of the problem; the bank staff uses unethical means to exploit money from customers when unable to meet their daily targets.
The employees of the company were also affected by the problem; those found guilty of opening new accounts without customer permission were laid off their duties. Opening of unauthorized customer accounts was fueled by high targets, which were set by the management (Klemash et al. 2019).
Type of the problem
The problem is based on self-interests, knowledge, and skills among the staff and poor organizational structure (Klemash et al. 2019). The action of the bank staff to exploit money from the customers to attain their daily targets is entirely unethical.
Suspect causes
Among the critical causes of the problem are the splitting of customer deposits, overbearing sales culture, employees’ misconducts, excessive pressure of employees by the top management, and Illicit practices (Tayan, 2019).
Improvement goal and the long-term impact
The main goal is to identify a solution to the five leading causes of the scandal, which will help prevent the company staff from participating in any unethical practice that is not in line with its goals.
Impacts to the stakeholders
The cross-selling scandal has caused significant loss of finances to both customers and company shareholders.
Customers were able to lose significant amounts of money, which was withdrawn from their accounts without their consent.
Solution
proposal
The company should consider making the roles of different executive directors clear. Having a clear and distinct role will help in holding individual staff accountable. Caution employees from doing any form of the transaction without customers' permission.
Those found guilty of exploiting customers for self-interests should be laid off their duties and prosecuted in a court of law.
Final problem statement
The cross-selling cases which go against organizational ethics have highly increased among the bank employees. The targets set by the management are putting employees under pressure to perfo.

No unread replies.No replies.
Hi everyone! You've now completed three weeks of NR631 (assuming that your literature review is done), and you are ready to move forward to week 4. I'll be grading your TD participation hopefully on Monday and then I'll work on your literature review assignments starting on Tuesday. This is a more extensive assignment and I have assignments due in other courses so it might take me a little longer to get your lit reviews back. I'm anticipating some excellent literature review on your great CGE topics 😎. Let's take a look at what lies ahead in week 4...
Introduction
In week 4, the lesson title is "Communication in Project Management" and we'll be addressing the following course outcomes:
CO #1: Apply leadership skills of project management as a nurse executive in an organizational setting to develop, implement, and evaluate successful project plans (PO 4,5)
CO #3: Exemplify professional values and scholarship that support the role of a student in a practicum setting (PO 4) (this is in reference to your time at your practicum site and you'll see this each week)
CO #5: Apply professional values characteristic of the competent and caring nurse executive that promotes holistic care principles and an appreciation of cultural humility (PO 1,3,4)
I encourage you to keep these course outcomes in mind while you read your text, articles, and lessons, as you participate in TDs, as you participate in practicum hours, and as you complete assignments.
Reading:
Your week 4 reading consists of three articles from peer reviewed journals. Two would be considered "scholarly" by Chamberlain definition as they are within five years old. The Culo article is from 2010 but it's a very good article so I decided to keep it. Please be sure to read these articles prior to constructing your initial TD post.
Lesson:
This week's lesson is about communication and building a communication plan. One point the lesson brings out is that, like most of the templates we are using, many organizations have their own formats or templates. I encourage you to reach out to the PM professionals in your organization and ask about this and compare our template to what you use in your organization. If your organization doesn't use a communication plan, it may be something you can suggest as a value added step.
Collaboration Cafe ☕️:
The week 4 discussion is a Collaboration Cafe ☕️! As with all TDs and Collaboration Cafe's the reduced participation guidelines are in effect for those who need them. I will be reviewing posts each day to make sure you're headed in the right direction. A note of interest...this CC is actually based on an idea that an NR631 student shared in the old week 4 TD. I thought it was such a great thought that I used it (with her permission) to form this learning activity. I hope you enjoy it and I look forward to the knowledge you'll build!
