Change in an Organization           Helene Chacon Benjamin Leon School of Nursing, Miami Dade College NUR4827-2243-11097 | Leadership Management Theory Dr. Andrew Frados January 25, 2024 Change in an Organization Change is a constant factor in any organization. It must, therefore, be embraced by all individuals in order for the organization to function effectively. However, while change is essential, it may only be possible if it is easily integrated into the organizational structure. According to Marquis and Huston (2021), many changes fail because the approaches utilized to implement these changes usually need more structure and planning. One of the instances of change within my organization is the implementation of automation and robotics during the COVID-19 period and subsequent use after the pandemic. During the pandemic, various initiatives were implemented to improve patient care while reducing healthcare providers’ exposure to infections. One such intervention was the use of automation and robotics in order to monitor patients and deliver medications. The trend has been perfected over the years to increase productivity and quality…

An intricate tapestry of imperialism, press influence, and racism comprised the Spanish-American War. Introduction This Spanish-American War of 1898 allowed the nation to climb to the top list of international headliners and turned the page in American history. In this scholarly paper, I will explore the many reasons, including the heavy impact of the press, that sent the United States into the war. However, the discussion will be focused mainly on the Spanish-American Wars. This work discusses the ramifications of the war, the revelation of the parties to the benefit and those who suffered, and the American foreign policy. Additionally, it presents the intricate ideological conflict between imperialists and anti-imperialists, engages in an in-depth situation in the Philippines, and analyzes the vast ramifications of racial discrimination. The vitality of the Cuban and Filipino natives in the recent films gives a chance to evaluate the race attitudes and biases peculiar to that period. This study aims to reveal the most significant issues that were functional at that time, which was a critical period in the history of the United States, so…

 Business ethics Student’s Name Institutional Affiliation         Business ethics Business performance and long-term profitability depend on the entity’s behaviors and how they relate to other stakeholders. The management must strive to create an accepted code of conduct governing how an entity conducts its operations to maintain a good relationship with other businesses, employees, and customers (Ugoani, 2023). Firms in the United States have followed ethical or unethical practices depending on the entity’s objectives and its strategy of operations. For instance, Walmart engages in unethical operations that affect its performance. I decided to analyze Walmart’s operations since its business affects the operations of various entities across the globe. The firm engages in unethical practices as management needs a better system of supervising suppliers in different countries and mishandling employees. The company works with a philosophy that encourages attracting more clients through charging lower prices compared with their competitors. The firm management invents strategies aimed at reducing commodity prices, including squeezing suppliers and creating a non-conducive environment. The entity gives unrealistic prices to its customers and pays low wages…

Activity 1 Explain some inclusive strategies for how employees can be encouraged and supported (through mentoring and coaching) Transforming a community service organization’s working culture into a more inclusive one, that encourages employees to participate in decision-making, show initiative, and assume responsibility, requires a strategic approach. Some of the inclusive strategies that illuminate coaching and mentoring include: Decision Making. In the bid to evolve the work culture, employees’ contribution to decision-making is supposed to be put into consideration. Some ways in which this factor can be facilitated is advisable for the community service organization to hold regular meetings where thoughts and ideas are spoken freely and in open dialogue. On top of that, there should be decision-making teams and training where the decision-making process is taught and practical exercises are taken to improve the skill. Additionally, availing a top-notch feedback mechanism would enable the active participation of employees in the organizations day to day operations Responsibility for Actions and Decisions Made. When an organization is looking to incorporate its employees into its work culture, another inclusive strategy to take is…

Approaching the Wicked Problem of Sustainability     Student’s Name Institution’s Affiliation Course Professor Date     Approaching the Wicked Problem of Sustainability Marine plastic waste is a well-known example of a wicked sustainability problem. Several things contribute to this issue: the large and complex marine ecosystem; the various sources of plastic garbage; and the numerous adverse effects on health and the environment caused by plastic pollution (McKibben, 2019). Figuring out where plastic pollution comes from, the many possible answers, and the difficulty in setting clear goals for success are all signs of wickedness (Stockholm Resilience Centre, 2023). Moreover, the issue is ever-changing, as new plastic keeps entering the seas, making it hard to judge how well solutions work. Diverse interests and viewpoints must be included to solve the wicked problem of plastic waste. According to Harris, (2019) scientists and environmental professionals can provide their expertise to comprehend the ecological consequences and create practical mitigation plans (Harris, 2019). Alongside the corporate initiatives formulated by major plastic production companies, policymakers and legislators actively enforce regulations to reduce plastics and shift towards…

Analysis/Journal In terms of Constitutional Politics, the lectures for this week discussed the complicated network of mechanisms that govern choices in constitutional law. It was assumed that a minimum prerequisite for understanding the discussions would be basic knowledge of American politics or civics (Mironesco, 2023). The lectures primarily centered on how the three branches of government, Government executive, legislative, and judicial in the United States interacted with each other to reinforce that this class’s main point would be around the Supreme Court—the highest body for not just any given country but especially America (Mironesco, 2023). Though the case of Marbury v Madison in 1803 established that courts, especially Supreme Court; have interpreted constitutionality as a tiebreaker more than anyone else these lectures argued that such notion seemed an oversimplified image because there are multiple grounds for defining Constitution business beyond political interpreters and their rhetorical theories. The professor critically challenges the naïve assumption that it is only the courts in general and especially the Supreme Court who have authority for interpreting what exactly does or should this Constitution mean. Despite…

Students, Name Course Professor Date American History Introduction The “First Peoples” chapter covers the “master narrative” of American history, which is the typical gravitation toward European colonization, westward expansion, industrialization, and political developments. The dominant narratives of American history tend to be biased against or completely disregard the Native American peoples’ experiences or views, which results in a one-sided and impartial historical perspective. In common past ideas, Native Americans shared history with European history, implying the reliance aspect of the two histories in contradiction of different and special narrative aspects. Analysis and Synthesis Colonization and Conquest In contrast to the emerging orthodoxy of the westward expansion of civilization, these readings strike out a different narrative path, one that focuses relentlessly on the brutal reality of Native dispossession and the devastating consequences of such policy for Native societies. The fourth chapter, “Colonial Worlds,” explores the European colonizers’ early encounters with pre-Columbian cultures. The chapter puts forward the premise that European exploration as a ‘noble’ search for discovery was a raw and brutal process with the sole aim of oppression and territorial…

Alternative Modalities Discussion Post The module’s Online Nursing Orientation resource presented the graduate nursing certification success framework, which comprises three main parts: Vi-Vision, Value, and Victory. This strategy model aims to give students starting their nursing careers a road map (Lalithabai et al., 2021). Starting with “Vision,” the school encourages students to set a clear path for themselves. Furthermore, the focus on “Value” urges a profound reflection on the importance of each course, emphasizing the critical part they play in the journey to certification success. Success on planned certification tests is the model’s final goal, “Victory.” As a guiding principle, this three-tiered method fits perfectly with how nurses make essential decisions. Other models, including the PDSA model, are introduced to participants who have finished the program’s theory and research courses. Plan, Do, Study, and Act are the four interconnected phases of the 1920s-era Process Design, Study, and Act (PDSA) paradigm, a powerful instrument for process improvement (Minnesota Department of Health, 2022). This model is significant because it embodies the principles of action research in education and provides a flexible framework…
