One of the biggest challenges for any leader is during the need for change
This week’s discussion focuses on the following:
One of the biggest challenges for any leader is during the need for change. Leading change through agility and resilience is critical for success.
To prepare for the discussion, you need to provide examples of how leaders in the past have or have not managed the change process with the following questions in mind:
- You need to be able to explain the need for the change to the employees or team members.
- You need to involve the employees or team members in the change process.
- As the leader, you must communicate constantly during the change process.
what benefits might you use to attract Generation X and Y employees
Let’s consider further the role that benefits play in recruiting. Put yourself in the role of your organization’s recruiter, what benefits might you use to attract Generation X and Y employees (under 45 years of age)? How do the benefits differ from those that you might use to attract workers who belong to the baby boom generation (45+ years of age)?

Problem 2
There are three major network affiliate television stations in Hicksville: RBC, CBC and MBC. All three
stations have the option of airing the evening network-news program live at 6:00 pm or in a delayed
broadcast at 7:00 pm. By regulation, they may not choose other times. Each station’s objective is to
maximize its viewing audience, in order to maximize the station’s advertising revenue. The table below
gives the percentage of Hicksville’s total population “captured” by each station as a function of the time
at which each news program is shown. The numbers do not sum to 100 since not everyone always
watches TV.
Times Chosen Audience Capture
MBC RBC CBC MBC RBC CBC
6:00 pm 6:00 pm 6:00 pm 32 14 24
6:00 pm 6:00 pm 7:00 pm 27 8 30
6:00 pm 7:00 pm 6:00 pm 24 30 16
6:00 pm 7:00 pm 7:00 pm 50 13 12
7:00 pm 6:00 pm 6:00 pm 30 16 24
7:00 pm 6:00 pm 7:00 pm 24 30 16
7:00 pm 7:00 pm 6:00 pm 14 30 23
7:00 pm 7:00 pm 7:00 pm 32 14 24
1) Suppose that the choices of all three stations are made simultaneously. Find the Nash
equilibrium(s). (Hint: Try to set this up so it looks more like a normal form game. To do this for
three players, use two 2*2 matrices: let MBC choose the matrix, RBC the row and CBC the
column).
2) Suppose now that the game is played sequentially. MBC moves first. RBC moves second and
CBC moves third. Each station can observe all previous moves before making her choice. Explain

Describe the “levels of evidence” and provide an example of the type of practice change that could result from each
The ‘levels of evidence’ are assigned to studies based on the methodological quality of their design, validity, and applicability to patient care. These decisions give the “grade (or strength) of recommendation” (Nova, 2019). The key is that when doing a search for evidence-based literature, it is important to select the highest level of evidence that is available. Systematic reviews, meta-analysis, and critically-appraised topics/articles have all gone through an evaluation process: they have been “filtered”. Choosing topics that have been filtered versus unfiltered describes the critical appraisal of that topic. Also, not every clinical question can be answered using the same types of research.
Level I is experimental study with randomized controls with or without meta-analysis and could result in changes in therapy. Level II is quasi-experimental study with or without meta-analysis and can lead to etiology changes. Level III is non-experimental study with or without meta-analysis and can lead to changes of the meaning. Level IV is the opinion of respected authorities and/or nationally recognized expert committees/consensus panels based on scientific evidence which include clinical practice guidelines and/or consensus panels. This level of evidence describes the Clinical Consensus Statement on Tracheostomy care which in my experience, has led to changes in practice. Level V is based on experiential and non-research evidence and includes literature reviews, quality improvement, program or financial evaluation, case reports or the opinion of nationally recognized expert(s) based on experiential evidence and can lead to changes revolving around cost.
Using 200-300 words APA format with at least two references and should not be over five years old to support this discussion
Describe the “levels of evidence” and provide an example of the type of practice change that could result from each.
Are children immune to the attitudes and behaviors of other group members?
2-1 Discussion: Development of the Social Self
Discussion Topic
Our ability to integrate the information we receive from others and interact within social contexts involves skills that are acquired throughout our development. In this module, you are exploring the emergence of social behavior during childhood and how it contributes to the development of the social self.
First, title your post “Development of the Social Self.”
For your initial post, review the videos A Class Divided and Social Development: Crash Course Sociology #13. Then respond to the following:
- Based on the content in “A Class Divided,” are children immune to the attitudes and behaviors of other group members? Explain.
- In what ways might important developmental milestones influence social development in childhood?
- Based on psychological evidence, should antisocial behavior in adulthood be primarily blamed on impaired socialization as a child? If so, what types of interventions might help to remediate these impairments? If not, what do you think leads to adult antisocial behavior?
- Can you teach children tolerance and inclusiveness if they are already indoctrinated by societal intolerance? What if the children in “A Class Divided” had never had a follow-up class explaining brown eyes as an indicator of the smart people?
- How does the concept of development of the social self apply to any of the following programmatic course themes:
- Self-care
- Social justice
- Emotional intelligence
- Career connections
- Ethics
