WU Impact of Group Behavior Discussion
Group polarization can be defined as the process that can occur after group interaction, when an initial group attitude (e.g., ?Our company is the best at providing Service B in this community?) becomes more extreme (e.g., ?Our company is the best at providing Service B in this entire region?). Group polarization may be particularly likely when the issue at hand is deemed particularly ?important? (Crisp & Turner, 2007, p. 169).Groupthink is considered a more extreme version of group polarization and refers to decreased flexibility in group processing and can, in turn, lead to decreases in group productivity. This has never been more evident than in the space shuttle Challenger disaster in 1986, when Challenger exploded in mid-flight. In this case, evidence suggests that groupthink played a major role in this event. For this Discussion, review this week?s Learning Resources. Pay particular attention to the impact of groupthink and group polarization. In addition, using the Walden Library, research alternatives to groupthink and group polarization and select an article that discusses an alternative.With these thoughts in mind:Post by Day 4 a description of a situation in which you experienced or observed negative consequences resulting from groupthink or group polarization. Then describe two consequences as a result of groupthink or group polarization in your example. Finally, using an article from the current literature, explain how one alternative to groupthink or group polarization could have been used in that situation.References: Crisp, R. J., & Turner, R. N.

Assessing for Emotional Intelligence
Competence, 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.ÿ
Must be ÿ1750 ? 2100 words (or 5 -7 pg) in length (excluding title, abstract, and reference pages), address the following:ÿ
Discuss the concept of EI and its evolution as a factor associated with leadership performance. How do researchers classify EI?as 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?ÿ
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.ÿ
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.ÿ
Discuss each instrument’s reliability and validity, as well as administration considerations and costs to either the user or to the organization administering the assessment.ÿ
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.
KNHS Earthquake Discussion
The U.S. Geological Survey (USGS) contains a real-time database of global earthquake activity. From their USGS website, you can view up-to-date information on earthquakes throughout the world. There is a map of the world with a clock that counts down from the most recent seven days. As the clock ticks down, a square pops up on the map where there have been recent earthquakes. Take a look at the website, click Start Animation, and note that earthquakes happen everyday. Also, take note of where most of the earthquakes are located. Do you notice a trend?On the USGS website, you can also browse information about specific locations throughout the world to find out about earthquakes in those locations. Browse through some of the information that is available there. Why do you think this information is maintained by a US government agency? Who would be interested in or would benefit from this information?What trends do you notice about earthquake locations? Based on what you have learned about plate tectonics, what hypothesis can you present about why earthquakes happen where they do? Also, why do you think the USGS database is useful and who do you think benefits from it?
