SOCW 6070 wk 4 responses for discussion 1 Respond to at least two colleagues post separately in the following ways:Address a colleagues post that differs from yours with regard to at least one cultural lens and expand upon the colleagues interpretation of Paulas needs.Explain whether you might use your colleagues strategy for addressing multiple perspectives when treating clients, and explain why.Support your post with specific references to the resources. Be sure to provide full APA citations for your references.Peer 1 postJasmine Dixon RE: Discussion 1 Week 4Case of Paula: Cultural Lens Reviewing Paulas culture and her strengths/weaknesses as the social worker I would take those factors into consideration to address Paulas needs, well as to develop a plan with the team on how to approach Paula. Through the Future and Performance orientation I would interpret Paula needs as her positive plan for her future with a newborn. This will include making a decision to continue her pregnancy first. If so she would need to begin making plans to have items in place for the baby. In addition to the Future Orientation, Performance Paulas needs will be interpreted by her changing her lifestyle and adhering to her treatment set by the team. Once these performances are carried out she can expect rewards for a better quality of life, well as the ability to take back over her life, health,and relationships.Stakeholders Perspectives and/or Human Services Professionals While stakeholders perspectives are important to take into consideration I would also be sure to employ humane-oriented leadership emphasizes being supportive, considerate, compassionate, and generous. This type of leadership includes modesty and sensitivity to other people. This particular leadership style will aid in making sure the treatment of the clients are still in their best interest and does not impose harm or deny the client their basic rights. Every individual has their own culture and beliefs, which is fine, however, as Paulas social worker its my responsibility to ensure those factors do not impose negatively on policies that will affect her and her treatment. Fong & Gibbs (1995) found that the changes needed to create a culturally responsive organization can threaten the core culture of an agency, foster resistance, and compromise the effectiveness of an ethnically diverse workforce that must conform to preexisting services, rules, and procedures that may not be appropriate for serving diverse communities. Fong & Gibbs (1995, p. 1618) offer the following recommendations to avoid these negative outcomes at the organizational level: 1) The organization should recognize the impetus for the desire to hire multicultural staff and to clarify desired outcomes (e.g., improvement of service delivery or contract accountability issues); 2) the organization should become proficient in receiving and integrating divergent forms of input from all parts of the community and within the organization itself as it hires and incorporates culturally diverse staff; 3) the agency should strive as a whole to improve diversity; 4) the organization should consider optimal ways to cluster culturally diverse staff to create a critical mass so that they are no longer singled out as tokens in various units; and 5) agency administrators and staff must share a clear understanding about the required level of cultural skills and knowledge necessary to deliver effective services to the target population, to develop community ties, and to recognize the need for bilingual language skills.References Chun-Chung Chow, J. & Austin, M.J (2008).

Los Angeles: Sage PublicationsPeer 2 Emily Heare RE: Discussion 1 Week 4Two Cultural Lenses SelectedAfter reviewing the Cortez case study, the cultural lenses one selected to interpret Paulas needs are mental health and socioeconomic lenses. As stated in the case study, Paula has a bipolar diagnosis and is dealing with paranoia while admitting to not taking her medications regularly (Laureate Education, 2014a). She has been put on a 72-hour psychiatric hold due to her decompensating during a social worker visit. The social worker stated she feared for Paulas safety and the unborn child Paula is pregnant with (Laureate Education, 2014a). With the mental health lens, one would interpret Paulas needs as to ensure safety as number one for Paula. Once it is determined Paulas immediate safety is no longer an immediate threat, the next step is to work with Paulas mental health needs to stabilize her symptoms enough to be a functioning adult outside of a psychiatric unit. Looking at the Cortez case through a socioeconomic lens, one would interpret Paulas needs as her lack of financial supports. Depending on what Paulas decision regarding her pregnancy will depend on if Paula needs to quickly become enrolled in the WIC program for financial assistance with food while pregnant and assistance for the child after birth. Paula will also need help looking into other socioeconomic areas such as assistance for obtaining resources for the baby, including bedding, clothing, diapers, etc. The case study stated that Paulas right hand is semi-paralyzed, and she has a limp when she walks (Laureate Education, 2014a). It was also noted that Paula suffers from foot ulcers that result in Paula not putting pressure on her feet. Based on this information, Paula may qualify for government assistance such as disability. The aid is another avenue that Paula should be looking into to aid in her financial stability. Incorporating Multiple Perspectives While Treating ClientsWhen working with stakeholders and/or human services professionals, I would incorporate multiple perspectives. Of those perspectives, I would focus mainly on gender egalitarianism, future orientation, performance orientation, and humane orientation. Gender egalitarianism promotes gender equality, which is very important when treating clients from all cultural backgrounds (Northouse, 2013). Future Orientation perspectives focus on planning for the future (Northouse, 2013). Being future-orientated in perspective allows professionals to treat clients in a solution-focused and prevention perspective. Performance orientation perspectives reward individuals for their improved performance (Northouse, 2013). This perspective is essential when working with clients as individuals tend to continue praised behaviors instead of ignored behaviors. Therefore, if a client is making progress, then using a performance orientation perspective can motivate the client. Finally, the humane orientation perspective emphasizes sensitivity to others, social support, and community values (Northouse, 2013). Such a view can lead to clients treatment through being fair, altruistic, generous, caring, and kind to others (Northouse, 2013). Clients need professionals to treat them with generosity and kindness to have a better working therapeutic relationship for increased positive treatment outcomes.

Discuss the concept of EI and its evolution as a factor associated with leadership performance. How do researchers classify EIas a distinct component of intelligence or as a set of personality or behavioral characteristics?
Assessing for Emotional IntelligenceCompetence, technical skills, integrity and determination are traits most people would agree are important for leadership. But what about self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation, empathy, and social skills? Daniel Goleman, author of numerous books and articles on emotional intelligence, including his seminal work Emotional Intelligence (1995), believes these softer skill traits, which are associated with emotional intelligence (EI), are equally important for leaders. In fact, some would argue that emotional intelligence, as opposed to cognitive ability, is the key to successful leadership performance.Analyze the use of assessments of emotional intelligence in evaluating the potential of individuals for senior leadership positions. Then, select three specific assessments of emotional intelligence (do not select the EISA). Review and evaluate each assessment instrument. In a paper of at least 1750 2100 words (or 5 -7 pages) in length (excluding title, abstract, and reference pages), address the following: Discuss the concept of EI and its evolution as a factor associated with leadership performance. How do researchers classify EIas a distinct component of intelligence or as a set of personality or behavioral characteristics? Why is this classification important when considering the use of assessments of EI for senior leadership? Debate the idea that EI is as critical, or perhaps more critical, than cognitive ability in determining leadership success. Compare and contrast views of researchers on this issue. For each of the three different assessments of emotional intelligence you have selected, describe the theoretical framework upon which each assessment is based, the typical uses for each assessment, and the target population(s) for each assessment. Discuss each instruments reliability and validity, as well as administration considerations and costs to either the user or to the organization administering the assessment. Analyze the advantages and disadvantages of using each assessment for its intended purpose. Under what circumstances would you recommend its use? When would you NOT recommend its use and why?Support your analysis and discussion with at least three journal articles, in addition to references to required course readings (textbook and articles), and any Internet sites you reference to gather information about the assessments you have chosen.

examine imperialism in that country. What was the relationship between the invading country and the native people?
The exploitation of colonial resources and indigenous labor was one of the key elements in the success of imperialism. Such exploitation was a result of the prevalent ethnocentrism of the time and was justified by the unscientific concept of social Darwinism, which praised the characteristics of white Europeans and inaccurately ascribed negative characteristics to indigenous peoples. A famous poem of the time by Rudyard Kipling, White Mans Burden, called on imperial powers, and particularly the U.S., at whom the poem was directed, to take up the mission of civilizing these savage peoples.Read the poem at the following link: https://www.gutenberg.org/files/30568/30568-h/3056 After reading the poem, address the following in a case study analysis:Select a specific part of the world (a country), and examine imperialism in that country.

Is gender equality a requirement of democracy?
This assignment is a take-home essay assignment of 2 questions, 2 pages each, to test knowledge and assimilation of the course objectives. Using only the readings from Weeks 1-3, please answer the following questions. Do not research the answer using outside sources. Focus on the lessons and readings from our course.1. Elections and Beyond. Many of us would agree that there is no democracy without elections, and we would probably add the stipulation that elections must be free and fair to count. After all, even authoritarian regimes pretend to have elections of some kind. Most of us would also probably argue that theres more to defining democracy than just elections. Compare all the definitions of democracy provided in our sources and readings (Weeks 1-3). Using specific examples of democracies or states transitioning to democracies, make a case for how we can tell when a country has successfully transitioned into a democracy. What are the indicators of democracy beyond elections? Be sure to support your answer with specific examples. 2. Gender. Is gender equality a requirement of democracy? Use the readings that address this topic to support your answer.Please present your work as a Word document (.doc, .docx), remembering to double-space and put your name and a title on the paper. You should also put your name on the file, then upload it here in Assignments no later than 11:55pm ET on Sunday, Week 3.Important: Number the questions on your paper and write a topic/thesis sentence that indicates the question you are answering. The thesis is worth 20 percent of your grade, so its important to present your answer upfront, first paragraph. Hint: A thesis is your unique answer to the question with specific reasons why try using 3 reasons. That way, your entire essay is 5 paragraphs introduction, reasons 1, 2, and 3 fully-supported with evidence from the readings, and a conclusion. Papers presented with no indication of the questions being answered will be returned.General Instructions for Assignments and RubricsAll assignments should be written in Word and uploaded as attachments within the Assignments section of the classroom.
