What similarities do you see, and how do these similarities suggest guidelines for developing these groups?

When developing and implementing an adult support group, the following important guidelines should be considered: how the group is organized, how the format of each group session is structured, and what the short-and long-term outcomes of the group are. Consider the following three adult support groups: an HIV/AIDS support group, grief group for elderly, and a domestic violence support group. What similarities do you see, and how do these similarities suggest guidelines for developing these groups?

Now, imagine that you have just landed your dream job as a Business Analyst for the restaurant you chose. Your job is to provide upper management with credible statistical information to help them make sound business decisions. As the Business Analyst, your work needs to be based upon collecting data and interpreting them through appropriate formulas. You are not the company statistician, so your job is not to crunch a lot of numbers. It is much more about analyzing data and giving your recommendations to the company; however, along the way, you will crunch a few numbers as well. Your first assignment is to look at different types of data for a specific scenario that the company is facing.

The restaurant you chose (hereinafter referred to as “X” in this assignment) is known for ultra-fine dining in New York City but wants to look at expanding into the casual restaurant niche to compete with family restaurants. Before it does that, management needs to do some in-depth research to decide if expansion into this market segment is a good idea, and if so, what the menu for their new restaurant may look like. Of course, the company wants to make money, so they want to ensure that any restaurant they open will give the public an atmosphere and menu choices that are in line with today’s busy lifestyles. However, they have an impeccable reputation to uphold and they want to make sure that any new restaurant will complement and enhance their reputation, not detract from it.

Prepare a PowerPoint presentation of at least 6–8 substantive slides that addresses the following:

  • List and discuss 2 qualitative attributes of the atmosphere of the new casual dining restaurant that X’s upper management might want to ask potential customers. (Think of items that the customers would want to see in the atmosphere).
  • List and discuss 2 qualitative attributes of the menu choices of the restaurant that X may want to explore with potential customers.
  • List and discuss 2 quantitative attributes of the menu items that management might want to measure to make sure they are providing menu items that customers want.
  • List and discuss 2 quantitative attributes that the new restaurant’s chefs may be interested in when creating the menu.
  • Explain the difference between a population and a sample in research.
  • Discuss at least 2 populations and 2 samples that X may be interested in using for their research.
  • Discuss the target market for this new restaurant venture.
  • Explain how the attributes you discussed above will help ensure that this new restaurant will compliment what you see to be X’s best attributes at their fine dining location (from what you learn by researching X’s Web site and other Internet sources you find).

Identify a resource in your own community that provides primary, secondary, and tertiary services or resources for the issue you selected.

Just as other areas of need and at-risk populations require additional resources and support, so do couples and families. As a helping professional, you will be required to be aware of and be able to evaluate the mental health services provided in your community, from treatment to primary preventative interventions.

For this Assignment, select one issue from the following list:

  • substance abuse
  • domestic violence
  • child abuse and neglect
  • child/adolescent drug/alcohol abuse
  • depression

Identify a resource in your own community that provides primary, secondary, and tertiary services or resources for the issue you selected. Then, consider any gaps that may exist and how you might address them.

The Assignment (2–3 pages)

  • Identify the issue you selected.
  • Describe the community resource you selected.
  • Explain how it provides primary, secondary, and/or tertiary services or resources specifically for families and couples.
  • Explain any gaps that may exist.
  • Explain how you might address these gaps.

How many classes of access management could be discerned in a formal manner? Does anybody know of such an approach?

In identity and access management an identity can request access to an information asset. This apparently simple premise immediately leads to staggering complexity.

1. If you own the asset then access can be granted and managed directly.

2. If you own the asset, but none of its access paths, you must negotiate a protocol with path owners, if you are to provide access.

3. Any (contractual) entitlement to access introduces entitlement and contract management.

Following this approach we have identified 3 types of access (one direct sample and 2 indirect examples).
