Quality and Performance Management and Methods
As CRM firms implement ongoing cultural preservation strategies, there are ongoing problems associated with a lack of funds, long-term curation, and the interpretation of culture for future generations. respond to the following:———You are the head of human resources at a fairly large multinational company operating in northern California. You work closely with the marketing department on maintaining the company?s image internally and to the general media.As part of the company?s outreach and community support, your company has started developing interactive docent stations at some of the state?s cultural heritage sites. These are electronic interfaces at a few regional state-registered historical and archaeological sites that let tourists interact, ask questions, and develop a more integrated sense of the cultural landscape than a brochure.You and your team are working closely with state officials to make tourism more modernized and inclusive for a wider audience. Specifically, you have been tasked with developing the marketing campaign that will focus on the general public. You will likely have to produce billboards, television ads, and internet ads. Although you have a member of the National Parks Service consulting on your team, you and your crew are really the ones making the decisions. The advertisements you came up with were sent to final review with the National Parks Service and in public groups, and they came back with mixed reviews. You are struggling to understand why.Billboard: The billboard is located alongside a major highway and near one of the historic sites. It reads, ?Visit Governor State Historic Site . . . bringing the past to you digitally.? It has a picture of a family admiring a digitally produced, 3D representation of the state?s oldest estate with a line of RVs in the background.Television Ad: Your television ad has a couple of spots in primetime, but they are regional channels, so your audience likely comprises local resident families and singles eating dinner. It talks about the good old days and has two different all-white families climbing ancient Indian mounds from indigenous groups from the area. One of the actors comments, ?A fun place to bring your family!? as spotlessly dressed children play on top of the mound as dad and mom take a selfie on it. Everyone is laughing and enjoying the sunshine.Internet Banner: The internet banner is only on the National Parks website, so visitors are likely people interested in outdoor vacationing and quick weekend retreats. It has a picture of a stoic-looking tribal chief, though he is not affiliated with the living groups of the ancestral lands. His wife and children are barely covered in their hide and fur squares of clothing. The image is beautifully drawn with immense detail by a well-known and expensive artist from a different state. The tagline flashes, ?Visit State Archaeological Site and Learn Our Heritage.?Without drafting responses, think about some of the questions members of the senior management team might ask you when this marketing campaign comes up in leadership meetings. These questions may include:Now, respond to each of the following three items:Include further analysis of biases and ethical behavior of your five invested parties, including the following:You are a medical and health management consultant just hired by a prestigious New England hospital wanting to open branches in a foreign country. According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, this burgeoning field is expected to grow almost 80% by 2018, so you know the healthcare industry is attempting to expand and diversify its cultural perceptions. Your primary concern as consultant is evaluating some of the cultural, legal, and logistical needs of the country so you can report back to the topic of trustees on the option to which the hospital might be best suited.Pick from the list of three countries (France, China, or Ethiopia) to complete a preliminary medical healthcare analysis. Your investigation does not have to be exhaustive, but it should provide the responses to the following questions after selecting a potential country:Discuss the similarities and differences with indigenous knowledge and Western scientific methods in researching why these parties would want ownership of the archaeological sites. Use cultural relativism to make a more thorough argument. F. Based upon your previous research, select at least one perspective from a living cultural group directly represented in the archaeological find to help inform your resolution for the press conference. G. Propose a potential resolution as to which party or parties have ownership of the archaeological find based on the findings in your research and the previously selected perspectives. This resolution will then be communicated in your press conference. Ensure that your resolution takes into consideration all of the potential issues and will create an ethically sound solution that best fits all invested parties.

Assignment 3: America as a Superpower
The previous assignments focused on domestic matters in U.S. history. This last assignment explores America?s international role in recent decades. BACKGROUND–By the mid-20th century, the United States had become the dominant force in international relations. Some have argued that the United States? military functions as the world?s ?police.? This assignment covers the manner in which this shift occurred and the consequences the United States faces as a result of its status as ?policeman of the world.? One can identify early steps this direction well before World War II, but in this paper focus on the period from 1950 to the present. The American international ?policing? role developed because of the Cold War, but now terrorists or any power having or trying to get weapons of mass destruction (WMD) are the potential targets of such a role. Examine the statements below and drawing from provided sources, present a paper with specific examples and arguments to demonstrate the validity of your position. Your paper will use specific examples?two from the Cold War years and two from the past two decades. NOTE: The word ?policing? here has nothing to do with traditional law enforcement agencies. It is more about trying to manage parts of the globe?usually by use of military force or the threat of it. The aim of this management may be to maintain stability, remove threats of ?rogue? forces or terrorists or weapons, prevent the expansion of autocratic rule, protect a fledgling democracy, etc. Choose one of these position statements (make it the last sentence of your introductory paragraph): THESIS STATEMENT 1. By examples from different decades since 1950, it is clear that the international policing role and strategy of the United States was once essential, but should now be discarded as ineffective and counterproductive. THESIS STATEMENT 2. By examples from different decades since 1950, it is clear that the international policing role and strategy of the United States during the Cold War has become even more necessary in this period of terrorism and instability. In your paper, use specific examples?two from the Cold War years (1950-1991) and two from the past three decades (since 1991). After giving general consideration to your readings and your research, select one of the positions above as your position?your thesis. (Sometimes after doing more thorough research, you might choose the reverse position. This happens with critical thinking and inquiry. Your final paper might end up taking a different position than you originally envisioned.) Organize your paper as follows, handling these issues with this FOUR-PART organization: Length: The paper should be 500-to-750 words in length. Research and References: You must use a MINIMUM of four quality academic sources; the Schultz textbook must be one of them. The other three may be from the list below or from other quality sources you find in the university?s online library. (Sticking with the list is a safe strategy; using other quality sources from the university?s online library is permitted.) This is guided research, not Googling. Source list for Assignment 3: Some sources are ?primary? sources from the time period being studied. Some sources below can be accessed via direct link or through the primary sources links on Blackboard. Each week has a different list of primary sources. For others, they are accessible through the permalink to the source in our online library: Sources below having libdatab.strayer.edu as part of the URL have a permalink to that source in our university?s online library. (The link takes you to the library log-in; you then log in, and then the source appears for you right away). Each source below is shown in SWS form, so if you use it, you may easily copy the entire entry onto your paper?s sources list. (On a paper, never list an item as URL only.)SWS Form for the textbook: Kevin M. Schultz. 2018.

Economics of the global management db unit 1
Description
Graduate Programs Discussion Boards
Discussion Boards (DB) are a key component of online learning. They foster active participation of learners and dialogue with fellow learners and instructors. Graduate-level courses require learners to create original posts to course DBs and to engage in dialogue by responding to posts created by others throughout the course. Original posts and responses should be substantive, and if references are made to the works of others, APA guidelines for in-text citations and references apply.
Minimum Weekly DB Expectations
Post an original and thoughtful Main Post to the DB prompt.
Respond to at least 2 other posts from learners and/or the instructor (Response Posts).
The first contribution (Main Post or Response Post) must be posted before midnight (Central time) on Friday of each week.
Two additional responses are required after Friday of each week.
For DB assignment prompts with a Part One and Part Two, Part One should be addressed in the first week of the unit with a Main Post and minimum of 2 Response Posts, and Part Two should be addressed in the second week of the unit with a Main Post and a minimum of 2 Response Posts.
More on DBs
At the end of each unit, DB participation is assessed based on level of engagement and the quality of the contribution to the discussion. DBs allow learners to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB are accepted after the end of the unit. Learners must demonstrate an appropriate depth of understanding of course content to receive credit for having submitted substantive posts. Typically, this is achieved with 3?4 strong paragraphs for Main Posts and 2?3 strong paragraphs for Response Posts.
Examination of Course Objectives
Review the Course Objectives, accessed by clicking on the Syllabus link in the left navigation menu beneath the course code. If closed, the left-hand navigation menu can be accessed by clicking on the upper-left corner navigation menu.
How will accomplishing these objectives support your success in management? What risks or challenges might a manager encounter if he or she has not mastered these objectives? Explain.
Warning a Community Discussion
reply to discussion below:Warning a community is probably one of the most important things that could happen before a threat or hazard is about to happen. It is not just about actually warning the community but it is also about what you say in the warning when you say the warning. You need to make sure you give the community enough information so that they can get to safety but not too much information where they are in a panic. The warning is there for the protection of the community and is only there to help, so if the warning causes panic than it is adding more destruction than it is helping before the warning. When disseminating a warning there needs to be enough time for the citizens to get to safety but not too much time where the public begins to believe that the threat is not coming. When I think of warnings there are a few things that come to mind. In the military one of my jobs as a command post controller was to send out ATHOC messages. The messages and warning I sent out were mostly weather notifications of lighting, hail, and winds. Even so, if we did not get those messages out in time before the aircraft would take off it would have been harmful to fly in certain conditions. Thankfully we did not have to send out any messages of attacks or bombs but in exercises that was what we would do and they were specifically timed so that the soldiers could prepare themselves for imminent danger. Another instance that comes to mind is the missile alert in Hawaii last year. This alert was supposed to be a test drill and instead, someone supposedly misunderstood the command and thought it was a real threat so sent out a real-world missile threat. This is a big mistake not only to put a whole state and even country in a panic that we are about to get attacked but the fact that it was not true. This would cause the “crying wolf” aspect as the instructor talked about. The next time an alert goes off and it is a real-world message, how many people will believe it or will they think someone just misheard the instructions.
PGCC Conflict Management Case Study
Shirley and Abdul both work for a software development company. The manager of the new product division was originally the leader of the project team for which she interviewed and hired Abdul. Shirley, another project team member, also interviewed Abdul, but strongly opposed hiring him for the project because she thought he was not competent to do the job.Seven months after Abdul was hired, the manager left the project to start her own company and recommended that Abdul and Shirley serve as joint project leaders. Shirley agreed reluctantly? With the stipulation that it be made clear she was not working for Abdul. The General Manager consented; Shirley and Abdul were to share the project leadership.Within a month Shirley was angry because Abdul was representing himself to others as the leader of the entire project and giving the impression that Shirley was working for him. Now Shirley and Abdul are meeting with you to see if you can resolve the conflict between them.Shirley says: “Right after the joint leadership arrangement was reached with the General Manager, Abdul called a meeting of the project team without even consulting me about the time or content. He just told me when it was being held and said I should be there. At the meeting, Abdul reviewed everyone’s duties line by line, including mine, treating me as just another team member working for him. He sends out letters and signs himself as project director, which obviously implies to others that I am working for him.”Abdul says: “Shirley is all hung up with feelings of power and titles. Just because I sign myself as project director doesn’t mean she is working for me. I don’t see anything to get excited about. What difference does it make? She is too sensitive about everything. I call a meeting and right away she thinks I’m trying to run everything. Shirley has other things to do?other projects to run?so she doesn’t pay too much attention to this one. She mostly lets things slide. But when I take the initiative to set up a meeting, she starts jumping up and down about how I am trying to make her work for me.”Question Regarding This Conflict1. What are the possible ways to deal with the conflict between Abdul and Shirley (not just the ones that you would recommend, but all of the options)?

Respond to the following:
As aÿcity managerÿfor a mid-size city, you must be able toÿexamine patterns and trends to highlight organizational performance and support organizational strategic planning. One of the ways that is done is through analyzing the statistics. Still, just presenting the numbers is not always the most efficient way to present your analysis.
Scenario
You are a city manager for a mid-size city that is anticipating increases in population and auto traffic as new industries move into the downtown area. Parking spaces are already hard to find and traffic congestion can be problematic from commuters and events like concerts and sports. Before considering adding additional parking, you think it is possible to use existing parking more effectively through a smart parking app that identifies parking space availability in different parking lots throughout the city in real time.ÿ
In this assessment, you will demonstrate your skill inÿinformation visualizationÿwhen you present your recommendations to the City Council members who are responsible for deciding whether the city invests in resources to set in motion the smart parking space app.ÿ
Preparation
Review theÿparking space usageÿfile, see attached.
Select any 2 parking lots. For each one, review the scatter plot showing the occupancy rate at each time stamp during the week of 11/20/2022 ?11/26/2022. Identify whether occupancy rates are time dependent. If so, identify the times that seem to experience the highest occupancy rates.ÿ
Research ?smart cities? to provide guidance and support for your presentation.ÿ
Assessment Deliverable

You will note your sources within the paper in ( ) and should include Works Cited at the end. Each page should be numbered, along with your name on the top right hand corner. Font used should be 10 or 11, no larger. The finished paper should be 5-8 pages.In this paper you will discuss what you have learned about your personality type and yourself as a result of completing the Personality Analysis.You should seek out five (5) or more resources to help you understand the meaning of both the MBTI and your Personality Type. You should include references to each of your resources within the paper itself.You should share your Personality Analysis with at least two other people who know you well and discuss their responses and your reactions to their responses.I have interacted with two friends, one at my current work location and another was a neighbor. Both individuals thought that the test results concerning my personality constructs, styles, and type fit me well. They both acknowledged that I have always been a responsible, out-going, social, and most importantly, just me. My reaction to their responses was general. Given that I know them, and I felt I had already known what they were going to say, my predictions were correct. That is one good quality I have, and that is predicting situations with others and most of the time, my predictions are confirmed!Comparison(EMPHASIZE MORE ON THIS PROMPT PLEASE- You should compare and contrast this assessment with others you may have completed in other settings.) I have completed another personality test using the ?Myers Briggs? assessment and each time, the results are nearly the same. I am not sure if it is because I have an insight as to what questions will be answered given I had already done the tests. However, the very first time I remember taking was about 2 years ago, I was curious to learn about my personality style and this was before entering any psychology course. So, I was unaware of what the results truly indicated because of being unknown to the terminology presented.
