Communication and group dynamics are important elements within the leading facet of the P-O-L-C framework. Read the following article from CNN describing Bernie Ebbers’ downfall as CEO of WorldCom: Ex-WorldCom CEO Ebbers guilty. (link: https://money.cnn.com/2005/03/15/news/newsmakers/ebbers/)
Based on what you read in the article, in your initial post, identify which two barriers to effective communication were most prominent within WorldCom and explain how these barriers led to the downfall of the company. Be specific and identify the communication barriers based on the information in Chapter 11 of your text.
In responding to your peers, comment on whether you believe the concept of groupthink may have played a part in the downfall of WorldCom, especially as it pertains to its board. How you would overcome the communication barriers and groupthink to ensure organizational success?
RESPOND TO THIS DISCUSSION POST BELOW:
Hi Class!
WorldCom is one of the most known accounting fraud cases in America. It’s been discussed in more than one business/leadership class that I’ve taken. While we can only know what we read, as none of us were actually there, I would say the most obvious communication barrier would be filtering. Filtering is when information is withheld to from someone to manage their reactions. Withholding 3.3 billion dollars over 3 years is insane, but I suppose it can be done when it’s being pulled from the reserves and the company generally isn’t loosing any money up front. It’s like a smoke and mirrors play, as long as the company is doing well and not loosing, it has no reason to look into the reserves because that should just be untouched money essentially sitting in a pot, or earning a slight interest.
If Ebbers’ really didn’t know I would say the second barrier to effective communication was selective perception. Selective perception is providing information to play into his own need without realizing he’s doing it. It very well could be that Ebbers’ didn’t know (although I HIGHLY doubt that), and was believing what he was told by Sullivan and his underlings without really doing any analysis, after all, these were funds that were only supposed to be touched if WorldCom had a substantial loss. The fact that Sullivan took a deal in order to testify against Ebbers, and he was the ONLY link between Ebbers and the money makes it all a bit skeptical to me.

All social science research starts with a question that indicates the human behavior being studied. Draft a research question related to the four advertisements you chose earlier in the course.
OverviewAll social science research starts with a question that indicates the human behavior being studied. Draft a research question related to the four advertisements you chose earlier in the course. To do this, you will need to dig deeper into what each advertisement is communicating. Are there any deeper or unspoken meanings besides the obvious goal of selling a product or service?PromptUse the provided Module Four Activity Template Word Document to complete this activity. Revisit your previous assignments to review how individuals, groups, cultures, and stereotypes are presented in your four advertisements. Make sure to also consult the feedback your instructor provided. Based on this information, identify the underlying or socially significant messages communicated by your four advertisements. You will use your analysis to write a social science research question. Finally, explain how you used a social science perspective to help create your research question.You are not required to answer each question below the rubric criteria but may use them to better understand the criteria and guide your thinking.Specifically, you must address the following rubric criteria:Describe the underlying meanings or socially significant messages each of your advertisements communicates. In previous activities, you were asked to make objective observations. You can now use the knowledge gained from the course to interpret the social significance of your ads.What messages about culture, relationships, biases, or social norms are being communicated? Go beyond the surface of the ad and look for deeper meanings.Write a research question based on a social science perspective and related to at least one of your advertisements. What patterns or themes did you notice when analyzing your ads? What elements popped out and made you curious? Consider what the ads say about individuals, groups, institutions, or society. If you were to design a sociological, psychological, or anthropological study of your ads, what question would you want to answer?Your research question only needs to be related to one of your four advertisements. But if you find a common trend in your ads, you may tie your research question to more than one.It is expected that you will revise your research question, but you will need to finalize it by the end of the next module.Describe how you used a social science perspective to create your research question. Each branch of the social sciences (sociology, psychology, anthropology, political science, and economics) is interested in different aspects of human behavior. Depending on the perspective you chose, how might a sociologist, psychologist, or anthropologist look at your ads? What would they focus on? What types of questions would they want to answer?
What is the importance of using P&ID for process engineering?
What is the importance of using P&ID for process engineering?
I currently work at Georgia Pacific in wood products, we make OSB. I have worked as an electrician on shift for several years which meant that there were several times that I would have to troubleshoot and identify issues on my own because I was the only electrician in the entire mill most of the time. I used P&ID’s a lot during this time and it helped me with comparing I/O in the PLC to the actual field devices. The P&ID would point me exactly to where the field device was that I was having the issue with. P&ID’s can also be used to understand the flow of the process as well; identifying gas trains, induced draft systems and more.
