Sue is completing the lessons learned on the new HalfLoop project. Sue routes the documents to the client sponsor, James, for formal completion of the project.  James notifies Sue that he moved to another position six weeks ago and she will need Matt to sign off on the project. 

When Matt sees the lessons learned, he notices that the division just moved to his organization was not included in the HalfLoop project, and it must be before the project can be closed. Sue notifies Matt that the budget has been spent and the project team is released to another project.

DUE TOMORROW BY EST (24HOURS)

Evaluate two cases that illustrate the degree to which unions have affected health care clinical and administrative providers, such as nurses or clinic staff. Provide specific examples to support your rationale.

The theories you studied last week target patterns of behaviors, but they also incorporate thoughts and feelings in the moment and over time. You continue your application of theories to couple and family counseling by examining the systemic-emotional aspects of relationships, the patterns of interaction between couples and families, and the meaning associated with those interactions.

For this Assignment, you again watch media of counselors demonstrating counseling, this time using humanistic/experiential and emotionally-focused theories. As you develop treatment plans based on this week’s theories, ask yourself how you recognize emotion in the relational dynamics of the couple or family. Also, consider how you might know emotional changes have occurred and how you would measure progress.

The Assignment (3–4 pages)

Based on the theory demonstrated in one of the humanistic/experiential media resources:

• Define the problem.
• Formulate a theory-based treatment plan including short-term and long- term goals for the couple or family.
• Describe two theory-based interventions you would use and justify your selection.
• Explain one anticipated outcome of each.

Based on the theory demonstrated in the emotionally-focused media:

• Define the problem.
• Design a theory-based treatment plan including short- and long-term goals for the couple or family.
• Describe two theory-based interventions you would use and justify your selection.
• Explain one anticipated outcome of each.

 “Lean Manufacturing” (Graduate research paper with APA 6th version and powerpoint)

Instructions

Today, you learned that your organization has a significant change initiative planned within the next 6 months. The chief executive officer (CEO) has asked you, the human resources (HR) director, to lead this change initiative. You will need to motivate your supervisors as they work directly with the employees; their role in this change will be critical. For this assignment, you will start by doing some self-analysis to prepare yourself to take on heading up the change initiative.

First, begin your paper by briefly describing the change that will take place at your organization. Then, browse the Internet to find one of the many leadership style quizzes that are available. Take the assessment to learn more about your personal leadership style. Consider a traditional leadership style test such as What’s Your Leadership Style?. An assessment that gives a more nontraditional leadership style assessment is The Leadership Legacy Assessment: Identifying Your Instinctive Leadership Style. However, feel free to find your own. Ensure that the assessment provides enough analysis for you to be able to determine your own style.

Once you have taken a leadership style assessment, you will then write a reflection paper that includes the elements listed below.

• Compare and contrast your two top leadership styles. Did your results surprise you? Why, or why not?
• Evaluate how your leadership style could impact employee motivation and the change initiative.
• Select two supervisors from those portrayed in the unit lesson to join your change initiative team, and explain why you would choose them. What roles are they best suited to play in the change process, and how will you mentor them to utilize their strengths and improve on their weaknesses?
• Provide an analysis of the motivational theories that could play a role in successfully leading employees through the change initiative.
• Identify areas where you think you can improve on your own leadership skills to ensure this change initiative is a success.

Your reflection paper should be a minimum of three pages in length. Your writing should reflect an in-depth consideration and personalization of the concepts presented in this unit, and your interpretations should be insightful and supported. 

Any sources must be properly cited. Adhere to APA Style when creating citations and references for this assignment. APA formatting, however, is not necessary.

Scenario:

You work for Metro Health System, an integrated healthcare system based in the upper Midwest that serves 25 hospitals, 142 primary and specialty care clinics, 15 senior living facilities in addition to regional home care and hospice, home medical equipment outlets and more. As the flagship facility of Metro Health System, Metro Health One is a full-service, acute-care hospital offering emergency care, orthopedics, general surgery, women’s health, labor and delivery, gastroenterology, urology, pulmonology, intensive care and other medical and surgical services. As a new employee continuing your education, you have been enrolled in Metro Health One’s student internship program. This program is specifically designed to introduce you to Metro Health’s culture and values while completing your college training.

The program, led by Angie Nelson, CEO, instills team cohesiveness by teaching effective communication skills and employee involvement. Upon taking over the helm in 2010, Ms. Nelson adopted the IHI’s Daily Huddle guidelines for effective daily meetings. These started on the nursing units and segmented to every department in the system of care. Angie states, “information is distributed in an easy-to-understand format, with valuable team input, resulting in increased productivity and efficiency.”

Because you are the first group participating in the internship program, you and your partners have been selected to implement huddles as a study group daily activity. Using the IHI Daily Huddle Tool Kit concepts, as a guide, apply them to your study group development.

Your assigned focus is a STUDY Group:

Your Goal: To attain a grade of “B” in all courses this term.
Group 1: you are to define the steps you would use to develop an effective huddle for the study group.
Group 2: you are to develop an agenda with at least five items the group will cover during each study group huddle.

Suggestions of what to include in your study huddles AND see the rubric for grading criteria.

1. Determine the time of day for your 15-minute study huddle.
2. Develop an agenda
3. Develop ground rules: What can be discussed now, and what is appropriate for another time? Plan how that will be handled.
4. Develop a PDSA plan for implementation.
5. How will you measure success?  
6. Identify a method to include each member in the collaboration of the assignment.
   Keep in mind this is a STUDY group huddle, NOT a patient huddle

Human services professionals who focus on rectifying human rights violations, social problems, mental health, or welfare needs often do so on a national and international level. In the national and international sphere, there is a great need for social change agents, leaders, and advocates on behalf of human rights, as well as for other issues. Attempting to address these issues at the national and international levels presents a unique set of challenges for human services professionals. 

To prepare:

• Select one national and one international challenge related to human and social services professions and/or the roles and responsibilities of human and social services professionals anywhere in the world. These should be challenges you or a professional might face when attempting to address issues at the national and international levels, such as professional recognition, apathy, or cultural barriers.
• Think about why addressing these challenges is important to the profession, as well as what difference its resolution or improvement might make.
