Student Reply must be over 200 words.

Make sure all student replies you start it with Hello (Student Name),

Please upload each question in different word documents.

******Question 3 must be APA format and i have attached the GRADING RUBRIC. *************

Question 1:

Personal Intervention: Reflect on this week’s lecture and, based on your limited knowledge, would you say that you are a D, I, S, or C? Write that down, then follow the link, and take a free DiSC assessment. DiSC (Links to an external site.). Once you complete the assessment, compare it to your initial observation based on the lecture. Read your results and notice the % in the pie chart of your results. The highest percentage will be your dominant or default style. Keep in mind we all have all of the DiSC components in our behaviors and adapt when necessary. Based on your results, how do you feel this information could benefit your personal and professional life? Respond to two classmates’ posts.

Student Reply 1:Laura Lawson

Before taking the DiSC assessment, I predicted I would end up having results indicating a high Compliance score. In the previous testing, that was similar, which initialized from my work, I discovered that I am very analytical and detail-oriented.

After completing the assessment, I found that I scored a 40% dominance, 35 Compliance, 14% Influence, and 10% Steadiness.

I was momentarily shocked by the high dominance score until I read the summary description. DISC Personality Tests stated, “You have a strong inner motivation to assertively create and implement new ideas You handle pressure well-you strive for excellence and expect others to do the same. You are innovative but tend to avoid risk-taking”. I don’t disagree with that summary of my results. I am very direct and impatient, which falls under Dominance. As I stated earlier, I expected to have high compliance already. I am not confident even when I know I am right And while I am a team player, I have very little patience and am too blunt for it to be possible to have a high Steadiness score.

On the whole, I agree with this assessment, and it’s scoring, I think it is accurate for my personality. Having this information will benefit me in my personal and professional life because knowing this, I will be able to be mindful of situations in which I may want to reinforce behaviors I am low on to be a more well-rounded individual. Being aware of my strengths will lend me the opportunity to volunteer for situations that require those skill sets and be able to contribute with ease.

Student Reply 2:Tirza Gonzales

Having read this week’s lecture, I am going to assume that my score will be highest in the “I” for Influence behavior. I feel as though I see myself in all the DISC behaviors, but this one stood out to me because I see myself in this role in my current position. I am always enthusiastic and social, a team player, a motivational and conflict resolving type of person. I do also feel that my coworkers would see me as this person.

Having taken the DISC assessment, I found that my guess was not accurate. My results were:

Steadiness 38%

Compliance 27%

Influence 20%

Dominance 15%

After taking the test, my DISC personality type results read: “You are tenacious and determined to follow a course of action – to achieve objectives. You are a clear thinker. You have an inner need to be objective and analytical. You like to pursue a definite course of action. You respond to logic rather than emotion. You are likely to be particularly good at handling challenging technical assignments.”

I have to say I would happy to show this to my current manager as I attempt to promote into a management analyst position! I am very excited to see that I have an inner need to be objective and analytical because these are the types of characteristics, I will need in order to progress. I honestly thought I was more of an influence/social-centered type of worker because I tend to have great relationships with people across all fields of employment at my organization, but I am happily surprised by these results. I think that working in an Engineering Department that this type of worker would fare well with the technical and analytical assignments I will be subjected to.

I do realize that in both my professional and personal life, I tend to be less emotional and more factual, logical and analytical so this was a big reassurance to me that I am entering a job that I may eventually be very good at.

Dr. Reed – Just a quick thanks for having us take this test! I found it fascinating!

Question 2:

Reflect on a team you currently belong to and see if you can identify Tuckman’s stages of team development: Forming, Storming, Norming, Performing. What stage are you currently in? Did you find difficulties with any of the stages? How did you negotiate the storming phase? Respond to two classmates’ posts.

Student Reply 3: Laura Lawson

I recently joined a team for a ten-day, group effort to virtually race roughly 1,400 miles. Each team members adds their miles to the group total, and we are racing against five other teams to reach the finish line first.

This team quickly passed through the forming stage. We completed that phase in less than 24-hours, where we learned about each other. We are currently in the storming phase. Some runners aren’t pulling their weight. Other runners are pushing the slower runners too hard and trying to get them to do more. There are conflict and tension between the two ends of the spectrum, and we’re trying to find our teams norms. I find this stage to be very difficult, given that I can see both sides of the argument. The high mile runners want to win, they signed up and paid their fees planning to work towards winning. The low mile runners may not be performing due to health reasons or time management issues. However, they still wanted to participate and contribute. I understand both ends of the argument. There are debates on each side. I dislike any phase where there are arguments, and I am looking forward to when the group finds a balance.

I don’t think we will remain in this phase for long, once we figure out our teams’ pace, I’m sure runners will adjust to compensate, and we will find a balance that allows for us to perform for the team effectively.

I can identify Tuckman’s stages of team development in my current team. Tuckman’s stages of team development are forming, storming, norming, and performing (Bierema, 2014). These stages apply in my current job. The guy I work with started about 6 months ago and it is only me and him in our section. When he first arrived, we were in the forming stage and got to know each other. We then went into the storming stage because we had different ideas on how we should do things. After a few months we began to understand each other ideas more and did not argue about things. We are now in the performing stage and work together to accomplish tasks.

The only difficulty was to find a middle ground on issues that we disagreed on during the storming phase. We negotiated this by weighing the pros and cons of each decision and then went with the one which was better. We also started to listen more to each other about the rationale behind the problems. This got us past the storming stage and now we perform well together.

To what extent do you think manufacturers of dietary supplements should be held responsible for their products? As a jury member, how would you vote?

To what extent do you think manufacturers of dietary supplements should be held responsible for their products? As a jury member, how would you vote?

#1: T.A. Sciences, a New York supplement company, manufacturer of a drug TA-65, claims to be able to lengthen the telomere caps on chromosomes and thus slow down aging process. The mainstream scientific community is very skeptical. Several years ago, a former executive Brian Egan sued the company ( see the review article by Brendan Borrell). He claimed that he developed cancer while taking the TA-65.

To what extent do you think manufacturers of dietary supplements should be held responsible for their products? As a jury member, how would you vote?

#2: Inflammation increases cancer risk, damages arteries, and may even play role in development of Alzheimer’s. Recent studies by Zhang et al. (see the review paper by Chris Palmer) have shown that NF-kappa B levels increase with age. NF-kappa B is a protein produced by your immune cells in response to inflammation. Inflammation increases NF-kappa B levels in the hypothalamus, and this, on the other hand, reduces the levels Gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH). GnRH is involved in reproductive cycle and also protects body from aging.

NJ opioid Crisis Letter to Editor

Requirements:

-Letter to the editor

-NJ opioid Crisis

– Story Angle- People should be evaluated by multiple doctors before getting prescribed any opioid.

Story idea- The rate of opioid overdose in NJ is 3x the national average right now. Having people get evaluated by more than one doctor I believe would be more beneficial to assure they the patients aren’t addicts looking for a quick fix. Some doctors are crooked and will prescribe patients due to profits. If multiple doctors are required to evaluate a patient then there could be a lower chance a patient could be wrongly prescribed.

– 300-250 Words in First person NOT double spaced

– No indent when each paragraph starts

– space inbetween each paragraph

Capital Budgeting

As a manager, you may be responsible for proposing or approving significant, long-term investments by a business. An example of such a long-term investment is a business’ acquisition of manufacturing facilities, machinery and equipment, and working capital needed to launch a new product or to establish productive capacity abroad. Topic 1 described expenditures for plant and equipment as committed fixed costs. Of course, businesses commit financial capital to such investments with the expectation of earning a return on them. The expected return must be sufficiently large to justify undertaking the risks that arise from committing significant amounts of capital to activities whose outcomes (payoffs) are uncertain. In order to determine whether the expected return on investment is adequate, managers apply capital budgeting analysis. Capital budgeting analysis requires managers to determine:

  • The business’ required rate of return, referred to as its cost of capital.
  • The amount, timing, and risk (uncertainty) of the incremental future cash flows to the business attributable to the proposed investment.

The key feature of capital budgeting is its use of the present value concepts and models you examined in Topic 5. Because the cost of capital of a business and the prospective, future cash flows from a long-term investment are forward-looking estimates, the capital budgeting process is subject to potential judgmental errors or purposeful manipulation. Furthermore, capital investment decisions may be highly sensitive to changes in those estimates. Considering the significant size and long duration of these investments, inappropriate capital investment decisions may have serious financial consequences for a business. Therefore, it is critical that managers install controls over the capital budgeting process.

By completing this assignment, you will learn how to prepare a capital budgeting analysis for a proposed long-term capital investment by a business. As a manager, you may be responsible for proposing or approving significant, long-term investments. Considering the significant size and long duration of these investments, inappropriate capital investment decisions may have serious financial consequences for a business.

Do you still think that this is an important construct to consider when looking at cyberbullying? Why or why not?

Do you still think that this is an important construct to consider when looking at cyberbullying? Why or why not?

You did a nice job comparing and contrasting cyberbullying to traditional offline bullying, Paula. We read an article by Pabian and Vandebosch’s (2014) in this week’s learning resources which is an interesting article that applied The Theory of Planned Behavior to understanding cyberbullying. While they found effects for attitude and perceived norms, perceived behavior control was non-significant when looking at the intent to bully. Reflecting on this finding, what do you think might be some reasons that PCB did not contribute to bullying intentions? Do you still think that this is an important construct to consider when looking at cyberbullying? Why or why not?

Dr. Essel

Pabian, S., & Vandebosch, H. (2014). Using the theory of planned behaviour to understand cyberbullying: The importance of beliefs for developing interventions. European Journal Of Developmental Psychology, 11(4), 463-477. doi:10.1080/17405629.2013.858626

part 2;

Face to face bullying and cyber bullying are two issues that have become very common in todays society for adolescents. The main difference between face to face bullying and cyber bullying is that when you are engaged in face to face, it is physical and direct action to someone. You are in person and able to speak to them. Cyber bullying entails of someone using harassing or negative comments over the Internet, not in your presence.

The effects that can correlate to each form of bullying is that face to face bullying can get physical or violent. Abbott, R.D. (2011) Cyber bullying can have more of a mental toll on someone, not to say that face to face cannot but sometimes things we see and read can leave an imprint negatively on a persons self esteem moving forward. One study that I found was a survey done on adolescents in school, there were 276 participants and the outcome resulted that 32 percent of the students very victimized of both traditional/face to face bullying and cyber bullying. 26 percent of the students were the ones doing the actual bullying face to face as well as cyber. Erdur-Baker, O. (2010)

The second article that I found describes how cyber bullying has gotten worse. 80 percent of young people were under that impression and that a study of more than 800 people aging 8 to 22 found there is a large concern about being attacked online which has lead to the recent amount of suicides. Daily Mail (2013)

This brings me back to the differences, sadly I have seen many suicides on the news over the past few years of school aged people. The reason I have repeatedly seen was being a victim of cyber bullying. It is rare that I have witnessed it due to face to face harassment.

The implications of each type of bullying vary but can be similar. Face to face bullying can later result to having trouble making friends or keeping relationships and will be less likely to live with a partner, having social support from them. Lereya, S. T. (2015) As far as cyber bullying implications include having later health problems, socially and mentally. Babaoglu, A. B (2018)
