I have a written assignment due. I will attach the requirements needed to complete this assignment. Please be advised that there is a 400 word minimum for this assignment. Must use required reading for in text-citations. Must use APA formatting.

Note: Only up to 20% of the content in the written assignment can be quotes from third parties. 

Respond to classmate initial post. 275 words, 

First of all — DO NOT just write “yep, I agree” — that’s not helpful.

Be very careful with phrases that mean “I feel” — feelings are real, and usually based on something — so, when you start with “I feel” — continue with “because …..” Chances are pretty good that you’ll see the “I feel” part isn’t necessary.

 When you say “I agree” — follow it up with a clause beginning with “because” — that will further explain your position.

Don’t shy away from conflict or objections in your responses — that’s what’s interesting.

I’m looking for your original thoughts — that means that I want to see what else you think on the topic. So, extend your ideas a bit — push the envelope, take risks, try out ideas that you don’t believe in. This also means that you can’t just copy and paste stuff.

Also, include references and citations. APA Format.

Important note regarding Individual Projects in Units 1–5: This course uses a series of progressive Individual Projects in which you will focus on a real world and publicly-held health care organization. You are encouraged to use caution when selecting the organization that you intend to study in the Unit 1 Individual Project because it will be used in all Unit assignments in this course. You should review all five Individual Project assignments to understand the nature of the projects, the information requirements, the research required, and the expectations. Please make sure that the organization that you select is publicly-held and therefore has information that is readily available to the public. This is essential to your ability to complete all assignments. If you are uncertain about the suitability of organizations for these assignments, please speak directly with your faculty member before commencing work on this assignment.

To gather data for your assignment, identify a publicly-held health care organization of your choice. You may use the Library to search for market information.

 Research suggests that being a good public speaker can help individuals grow their business, advance their careers, and form strong collaborations (Tsaousides 2017). However, communicating your ideas clearly and presenting them in public can prove to be a challenge. For this forum, discuss what researchers believe are the top reasons for public speaking anxiety or fear. Determine if any of these reasons are applicable to you and what would be the best remedy to overcome these fears.

 Over the next eight weeks, you will be responding to the tasks your new boss Daniel Chinn has set out for you in his onboarding program so that he may get a good idea of how you can benefit the company with your management skills. Each week you will follow the directions for the assignment and discuss them with your fellow new hires so that you can develop your own best answers.  This week Daniel Chinn wants to see your “big vision” of the company’s workplace and how it will profit the company going forward. 

The New Virginia Meats, Inc. Workplace

At the end of the week, you as a new management hire will be asked to turn in a memo to the CEO of Virginia Meats (see corporate profile in week one content area) on the vision you have for the company’s workplace.

Brainstorming is a technique that seeks to collect a myriad of ideas about a problem in an effort to find a unique and often innovative way of handling the solution. It can also be a way of collecting information about a situation or produce feedback about a particular topic. Brainstorming works very simply with only three rules: No idea is too far fetched, all ideas are to be accepted by the group for consideration, and the ideas must focus on the topic presented for discussion not whether the idea will work or not. Obviously, many ideas will be discounted later on when constraints like budget or implementation impossibilities may block its consideration for successful implementation. However, for the purpose of this discussion focus only on suggesting ideas from the class material and research which will answer the topic under discussion. Use the following template for your memo format: Memo Format

Directions: 

1. By FRIDAY, complete the following:

• Using the memo template prepare a memo to CEO Mr. Chinn that describes how you envision the future Virginia Meats workplace.
  • How the use of automation will affect the employees and their work experience.
  • The organizational structure of the company (the types of jobs and the flow of power).
  • The actual work environment (physical vs. virtual) and the type of culture. Hint: how would  “the learning organization model” influence your workplace?
  • The challenges anticipated to make these changes.
  • The memo must contain at least three ideas related to each of the topics up for discussion (i.e. three ideas about the way automation will affect employees, three about job types and company structures, and three about the work environment). You must use course material to support your responses and APA in-text citations with a reference list.
