Conflict Resolution Program This topic is referring to what you are proposing to use for your Week 5 Conflict Resolution Program. So, some examples would be that you would like to focus on addressing the conflict between divorced parents over child custody issues, police vs. the community, parents vs. teachers, managers vs. employees. All you need to do for Week 4 Conflict Program Proposal is outline the topic and groups in conflict. These are both individual assignments. Assignment Content In this assignment, you will integrate the concepts of conflict resolution, group influence, and attribution to develop a program of conflict resolution to a current conflict situation. Identify a conflict between two groups, and obtain approval from your instructor. Write a 700- to 850 word paper in which you create a program to improve the relationship between two groups. Examples include between police and a community, managers and subordinates, the city council committee and a special interest group, and unions and management. Be specific in identifying what community, company, or organization you are writing about. Nature of the Conflict o Describe the context of the conflict. What kind of community or organization is this? Who are the stakeholders in the outcome of the conflict? o Identify the overt and covert issues presenting both sides. o Describe the effect the conflict has on the organization within which it exists and, if applicable, the surrounding community. o Identify attribution errors and how they will be addressed in the program. o Analyze the dynamics within each group and between groups. Who are the leaders? Does anyone stall or undermine the group? Is there a relationship between two subgroups? Program Design o Apply the elements of conflict resolution. o Describe the central strategy you will use to resolve or diminish the conflict. o Provide at least one reference supporting the use of such a strategy. o Include a program component that employs social media. o Explain how you will address attribution errors between the groups. o Identify the elements of persuasion you will use in your program. Create a 15- to 20-minute oral presentation that you would give to sell your program to the company or organization where the conflict exists. The presentation should be accompanied by 7 Microsoft PowerPoint slides with speaker notes that include the following: o The goals of the program o The logistics of the program (schedule, location, and so on) o The content of the program (any worksheets, activities, or events)
Chapter 6 This assignment should only be one page. Part One Using the PowerPoint that I uploaded answer the following question- John has been working as a sole proprietor for several years, and has experienced tremendous success. That success has translated into a significant financial gain. John has also, and very fortunately, won the Pennsylvania lottery. Describe any plan of action you would suggest John should take in light of her recent financial gains. Part Two Please respond to the post below with 3-4 sentences. “First I would suggest that John start aggressively investing his money. Just as fast as money can be spent, money can be earned through investing. Since John has been a sole proprietor it would be safe to say he would not have a decent amount of social security to retire off of, even though he has been successful. Also, since he has been a sole proprietor, medical and dental insurance could be an issue for him, and especially in the future so investing and saving his fortune will help with those costs when they arise. Since John has been so successful as a sole proprietor, I would suggest he keeps doing what he is doing, and not change to an LLC unless something significant had changed. John works alone, and is doing just fine. Why fix what is not broken. There would be tax liability for the lottery earnings, but it would not effect his business until he invested into his business, and at that point there would be tax write offs for the upgrading and the investing into his business.” Part Three For this discussion, please review the following website- justia.com Your discussion post is essentially a “review” of the website. In your review, please summarize the website and indicate how this website could be useful to a paralegal, and for what purpose.
Reflect on the following questions and use the book as a source to help reference the questions 1.)How does Hinduism view human nature and what is the human condition? What prevents human beings from realizing moksha? How does Hinduism view the Self (Atman)? How are ideas about the atman and moksha presented in the Katha Upanishad (make sure to provide specific examples and citations from the resources included for week 5)? 2.) What are the three different yoga paths or means of achieving liberation according to Hinduism (see pp. 78-82)? How are these three types of yoga explained in the Bhagavad Gita, as described in the audio files? Which path, do you think, fits you and your personality best and why? 3.) First, describe how the Buddha’s story can be contextualized within Moody’s five stages: Call, Search, Struggle, Breakthrough, and Return. Second, what kind of impact do you think the Four Passing Sights had on Siddhartha, given that he was raised without any knowledge of pain, suffering, or hardship? Do you agree that every human being experiences these Four Passing Sights, to some extent? If so, how have you experienced them in your own life? Make sure to cite examples from the text and additional resources on Buddhism in answering these questions.
