what is the future growth potential of this target market,
Assignment (1-2 pages) (Please adhere to the page limit.) Begin by selecting a product or service you are familiar with, such as jeans, computers, smart watches etc. These products are just examples. You may select any product/service you wish. Once your item is selected, the you must undertake research into the specific item: target market and market segmentation. Your report should contain information as to: (1) How large is the target market, (2) what is the future growth potential of this target market, (3) how does the marketer reach this target market and so on? These are just a few questions to get you started. Other relevant questions are expected to be developed by you there are more questions that you may believe are important. The second section of the report is for you to “re-position” this product to another market segment. For example, if you selected smart watches as your product of choice, and you confirmed that the target market for this is Millennials, then you should define how the manufacturers of smart watches players will attempt to re-position the product to attract the baby boomer generation (or some other generation) to increase their purchases of smart watches players. (Please note: Generations are discussed in chapter 6 as well.)

Describe a workforce diversity plan using at least three dimensions of diversity.
Women and Healthcare Women have healthcare requirements in addition to those of men because of their biology and gender roles. Due to their gender roles, they are frequently responsible for the health and healthcare of others. The resources they need to care for others may create constraints on their ability to care for themselves. Also, it is important to consider the workplace when considering women’s health issues because the position of women in the workforce has great impact on the healthcare they receive. Many businesses have recognized the need to create a more diverse workforce by selective hiring based on the need to increase selected groups in their workforce. Some businesses have been more proactive than others. For example, let’s consider that a business workforce’s diversity plan includes the following benchmarks: Maintain women’s representation at a minimum of 60 percent. Increase women’s representation in nontraditional occupations from 16 percent to 20 percent. Increase women’s representation in senior positions (grade twelve and above or equivalent) from 28 percent to 35 percent. On the basis of what you have learned so far, answer the following questions: How can the dimensions of diversity, such as age, race, ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, and religion affect individual or collective healthcare needs and capabilities? Could the above statements constitute discriminatory hiring practices? Why or why not? What would the implications of diversity-based policy development be in relation to healthcare needs? Describe a workforce diversity plan using at least three dimensions of diversity. Additionally, explain how it relates to improved health-service delivery.

Also, make sure to use scholarly sources to support your discussion.** #2. Nnursing research class . How would your questions and strengths change if you were to perform the same study using a different method? Discussion The proposed qualitative question for the desired research project is; What are the different factors that hinder the transfer of clinical skills among nursing students? According to Creswell (2014), “Narrative Approach” follows a set of in-depth interviews to study the lives of different individuals. Consequently, the identified information leads to the development of different themes, words and illustrates the stories. Therefore, this research question will be investigated under narrative qualitative research design. Furthermore, the research approach will follow in-depth semi-structured interviews because an in depth one-to-one interview between the researcher and the respondent allows the researcher to ask many questions from the participants to collect information (Zikmund et al., 2013). According to Mathew & Ross (2010), strengths of in-depth interview are; to follow common questions introduction of interview questions in different ways or orders as necessary, and to allow the interviewee to answer the questions in their own way using their words (story telling)Whereas the disadvantages of in-depth interviews are; they can be very time-consuming: setting up, interviewing, transcribing, analysing, feedback, reporting they can be costly, different interviewers may understand and transcribe interviews in different ways. In the field of nursing discipline, emerging technologies are changing the nursing practices; such as genetics and genomics; less invasive and more accurate tools for diagnosis and treatment; 3D printing; robotics; biometrics; electronic health records; and computerized physician/provider order entry and clinical decision support (CPOE). However, with these changing technologies, it is important that nurses should have the competencies to implement these technologies. For instance, nurses may lack competence towards genomes and genetics, competencies to use less invasive tools and 3D printing, the use of robotics to increase patient care, and the appropriate use of CPOE to support clinical decision making and provide best practices (Huston, 2013). Whereas the use of mixed methods, that is, both quantitative and qualitative methods will be significant to investigate into the role of emerging technologies within the nursing practice. Because this method have the following set of advantages and both the methods will complement each other in the following manner; the strengths of one approach offset the weaknesses of the other, sed properly, a combination of methods provides more comprehensive and convincing evidence, mixed methods research can answer certain research questions that a single method approach cannot, a mixed method study can encourage interdisciplinary collaboration, mixed methods encourage the use of multiple worldviews/paradigms, mixed methods research is “practical” in that it permits the usage of multiple techniques and approaches that best address the research question (Guest & Fleming, 2015). However, mixed methods have the following set of disadvantages and these will lead to challenges within the identified clinical problem; The research design can be very complex, takes much more time and resources to plan and implement this type of research, it may be difficult to plan and implement one method by drawing on the findings of another, it may be unclear how to resolve discrepancies that arise in the interpretation of the findings (Guest & Fleming, 2015). Keeping in view the strengths of mixed methods, qualitative methods can identify the set of current factors that contribute within the role of emerging technologies. Whereas with the use quantitative methods the level and the effect of these identified variables (factors) can be measured. And the results will be generalized for future use. ReferencesCreswell, J.

Describe the techniques you would use to terminate a treatment group and how these may be the same or different than the techniques you would use to terminate a family intervention.
Discussion: Termination with Families and Group Intervention endings are a critical part of social work practice. Because endings may create strong emotional reactions, the termination process starts from the first session. Successfully terminating family sessions or group sessions promotes learning for clients to take with them moving forward. By Day 3 Post a comparison of the termination process between treatment groups and family sessions. Explain how you would evaluate readiness to terminate group and family treatment, identifying similarities and differences between the evaluation of the two types of treatment. Describe the techniques you would use to terminate a treatment group and how these may be the same or different than the techniques you would use to terminate a family intervention. Toseland, R.
