What is your overall take on infant development?

s stated in the question, I am looking for your own personal impressions or highlighted “theme” of infant development based upon what we discussed in class. In other words, what struck you the most about infant development AS A WHOLE. What is your overall take on infant development? Then use examples to support your overall point (what evidence learned throughout the semester supports this theme/impression/viewpoint).

Develop departmental-contributor-level and individual-contributor-level goals aligned with the organizational goals.

Assignment 2: RA 1—Aligning Organizational Goals

Background

With proper goal alignment, each person within an organization can clearly see the direction of the business and understand how the activities he or she is engaged in contribute to meeting the overall organizational goals. However, goals need to be tailored for each functional area (department) because each area contributes differently to the overall goal attainment.

In M2 Assignment 2, you explained the importance of goal alignment. In this assignment, you will:

  • Develop a mission statement.
  • Create a strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis.
  • Devise a business strategy based on strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis.
  • Develop organizational-level goals.
  • Develop departmental-contributor-level and individual-contributor-level goals aligned with the organizational goals.

Scenario

The company is a small, young consulting firm that hires recent master of business administration (MBA) graduates. Its niche market is consulting with small to midsized manufacturing companies on environmentally friendly (green) initiatives.

Its major competitors are the large consulting houses that primarily service large corporate clients and are very expensive. Until recently, the company did not see a viable market in green consulting. It is now beginning the venture into green consulting. Its approach is to retrain its senior consultants and approach its existing clients.

Instructions

For this assignment:

  • Create an organizational mission statement.
  • Construct a fictitious competitive strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis.
  • Develop a business strategy to gain a competitive advantage based on the strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats (SWOT) analysis.
  • Select two departments (recall the concept of departmentalization that you had learned in Module 1 and think about the departments that might be found in a consulting firm). For each department:
    • Create two departmental goals that support the organizational goal.

Note: Most departments have subunits within them (For example, accounting departments have subunits such as accounts receivable and accounts payable).

  • Create three goals for two different individuals who work in those departments. Also, complete the following:
    • Briefly describe each individual’s role (job).
    • Follow the SMART goal format to create the goals.

Your final product should be a 5- to 7-page Microsoft Word document using a minimum of four sources from professional literature. Professional literature may include the Argosy University online library resources; relevant textbooks; peer-reviewed journal articles; and websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or institutions (.edu, .org, or .gov).

Be sure you write in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and display accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation. Use APA format.

Submission Details:

  • By the due date assigned, save the Microsoft Word document as M3_A2_Lastname_Firstname.doc and submit it to the Submissions Area.

How will your goals benefit the organization?

Assignment 1: Creating Effective Goals

The simple act of setting goals for employees functions to increase their motivation (goal-setting theory). Goal-setting theory is generally accepted as the most valid and useful motivation theory in industrial/organizational (I/O) psychology, human resources management (HRM), and organizational behavior (OB). However, goals must be designed well to be most effective.

Using what you have learned in this module, augmented by research on goal-setting, respond to the following:

  • Briefly describe your current or a past professional position and provide essential information about the organization—what is the industry, and what do they do?
  • Indicate if the organization uses a goal-setting approach/process. Respond to the following:
    • If yes, what levels of the organization are involved? Briefly describe the process.
    • If no, do you believe a goal-setting approach would help? What levels of the organization do you think should be involved and why?
  • Analyze or create your personal goals.
  • If you have goals, critique them on the following areas:
    • Are they effective or ineffective?
    • What is good or bad about the goals and the associated process?
    • What might be done differently? Why would the change be an improvement?
  • If you do not have goals, create four goals for yourself keeping in mind that the goals should be position specific and cover a short time span (for example, three months). Also, describe:
    • How will the goals benefit you?
    • How will your goals benefit the organization?

Submission Details:

Determine whether there is a correlation between gender and job satisfaction.

Assignment 2: Analyzing Organizational Archival Data

Scenario:

JetMidWest (JMW) is a successful and rapidly growing regional airline company with operations in Chicago, Dallas, Denver, and major destinations in between. The company has been in operation for ten years and expanded from initial operations in and out of Chicago, which remains its headquarters today.

The heart of JMW is its Airline Operations Center (AOC) that comprises four departments, including Maintenance, Crew Services, Dispatch, and Cargo. The AOC plays a critical role to ensure that the airline’s vision of being “the first-choice provider to travelers in all of our primary markets” is achieved.

The airline entered the industry as a low-cost provider and has survived competition from major airlines, other low-cost carriers entering the market, and increased fuel prices. As JMW has grown and expanded, a culture shift occurred. Processes that were sufficient in one market became inadequate as the airline expanded into other areas. The increased number of flights, new aircraft types, and operations at a range of airport sizes and types greatly increased the complexity of operations. The scope of current leaders’ responsibilities expanded quickly, and new leaders were hired from outside the airline. As one department head put it: “We’ve been running a marathon of changes for several years now at the speed of a sprint.”

In this tumultuous environment, the executive team of JMW identified a critical need to investigate the strengths, weaknesses, and needed changes in the AOC in order to better serve customers in new markets and prepare for continued future expansion. JMW’s internal Organizational Development (OD) team conducted an initial round of interviews and focus groups of employees and managers. Three key themes were identified:

  • Employee development may be needed for both technical and interpersonal skills.
  • Some departments may have more of a technical and interpersonal skill deficit than others.
  • Female employees may be more dissatisfied with their jobs in AOC than male employees.

The OD team and the leadership team of the AOC want to further validate these qualitative themes with quantitative data analysis. They have shared some recent corporate data with you from AOC that includes employee demographic information, recent performance rating data, and general job satisfaction ratings.

Directions:

For this assignment, you will do the following:

  • Describe the AOC workforce overall and by department in terms of diversity, job satisfaction, and technical and interpersonal skills ratings.
  • Determine whether employee development is needed for technical skills.
  • Determine whether employee development is needed for interpersonal skills.
  • Determine whether there is a difference among the departments in terms of technical skills.
  • Determine whether there is a difference among the departments in terms of interpersonal skills.
  • Determine whether there is a correlation between gender and job satisfaction.
  • Report your findings and your conclusion regarding whether the initial themes are supported by the data.
  • Make a recommendation as to which of the results presents the most pressing trouble for JMW and, therefore, should be addressed first. Make sure to support your recommendation with your data analysis as well as scholarly literature.

Your final product will be a 4- to 6-page Microsoft Word document written in APA format and should utilize at least four professional literature sources. Professional literature may include the Argosy University online library resources, relevant textbooks, peer-reviewed journal articles, and websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or institutions (.edu, .org, and .gov). In addition, you will submit a Microsoft Excel file you used to conduct all appropriate statistical analyses to help you make your determinations. Your paper should be written in a clear, concise, and organized manner; demonstrate ethical scholarship in accurate representation and attribution of sources; and display accurate spelling, grammar, and punctuation.

Is further information required in order for you to create an ethically sound suggested course of action?

You are a consulting psychologist for a local clinic and have been asked to review an ethically complex case. Please review the PSY699 Week four discussion case file for detailed information on the case under review.

In your initial post, explain how the APA Ethical Principles and Code of Conduct can be used to guide decisions in this ethically complex situation. Provide a suggested course of action for the clinic staff. Given the daughter’s age and the situation presented, integrate concepts developed from different psychological content domains to support your suggested course of action. Be certain to use evidence-based psychological concepts and theories to support your arguments. You may wish to consider the following questions as you construct your post.

  • Does the daughter have a right to know her diagnosis?
  • Does the mother have a right to not disclose the diagnosis to her daughter?
  • Does the mother have a right to privacy regarding her own diagnosis, which could be threatened if her daughter learns of her own status?
  • Should the staff tell the daughter if the mother does not want her to know?
  • If the daughter wants to know more about her condition, what should the staff say?
  • Are there other approaches the staff can take? If so, what are they?
  • Is further information required in order for you to create an ethically sound suggested course of action?

Case Summary

Client 1: Tina, a 36-year-old HIV-positive Latina woman

Client 2: Tina’s daughter, 12-year-old Victoria (also HIV positive)

Tina became infected through a former boyfriend who had a history of intravenous drug use. Tina gave birth to an HIV-positive daughter, Victoria. Tina does not want Victoria to know that either of them has HIV.

Victoria is now 12 years old and has been told by her mother that she takes medications for “a problem in her blood.” Recently, Victoria stated that she does not like taking the medication and occasionally misses doses. The clinic staff has raised the issue of whether Victoria should be told about her diagnosis. They’ve warned Tina that in the near future, Victoria will be at an age at which girls often become more interested in boys or sexual behavior. The clinic’s therapist feels that if Victoria knew her diagnosis she might be more adherent to her regimen of medications. However, Tina absolutely does not want her daughter to know. Tina believes Victoria is still too young and will be emotionally devastated. Tina believes that it is her responsibility — and only her responsibility as a mother — to “protect” her child, and that her daughter is “not ready” to know. Tina also believes that Victoria is “a good girl” and will not be sexually active until she is married.

The clinic’s therapist thinks Tina’s guilt about having transmitted the virus to her daughter is causing her to take this stance. Still, the clinic staff is concerned and wants Tina to reconsider. This situation presents several ethical dilemmas and requires further consultation.

Analyze and discuss the similarities and differences in the individuals’ needs depending on whether the issues occurred due to a national traumatic event or an interpersonal trauma.

 Individuals can experience trauma from public events at the national level or extremely private ones at the interpersonal level. In this Discussion, analyze these two types of trauma, describing potential interventions and their effectiveness.

To prepare: Read the DSM-5 section on trauma and stressor-related disorders and review the Learning Resources on PTSD, disaster response, and trauma.Then search the literature for studies related to an evidence-based intervention used to treat those suffering from trauma and stressor-related issues. Specifically, locate the following:

  • 1. One study on treating symptoms resulting from a national traumatic event (e.g., natural disaster, mass shooting, war)
  • 2. One study on treating symptoms resulting from an interpersonal trauma (e.g., rape, childhood sexual molestation, domestic violence)

Then, Post a response in which you address the following:

  • Post the APA references for the two studies you located.
  • Provide a brief description of the traumatic events, including a summary of how they affected the individuals involved.
  • Describe the interventions discussed in the articles and explain how they addressed the psychosocial issues and needs of the individuals affected by the trauma.
  • Explain the effectiveness of the interventions, as stated in the articles.
  • Analyze and discuss the similarities and differences in the individuals’ needs depending on whether the issues occurred due to a national traumatic event or an interpersonal trauma.

what do you believe is the place of humanistic psychology as a movement within the discipline of psychology?

Humanistic psychology has a rich history and tradition of arguing for the human experience as the essence of understanding human behavior. This basis for understanding is divergent from the views in cognitive psychology, psychoanalysis and behaviorism. Based on your readings, what do you believe is the place of humanistic psychology as a movement within the discipline of psychology? Explain. What observations can you offer about the movement’s credibility among members of the psychological community? What has contributed to how humanistic psychology is perceived within the larger discipline? Explain.
