Crosstabs

Using the Supermarket data set, create crosstabs for Marital Status and Annual Income expressing the counts as percentages. Then, create a stacked 2D column chart. (Select the crosstab table and insert stacked 2D column chart). If you need to swap the x and y values, then right click on the chart, click select data, and switch row/column).

Box Plots

Using the Supermarket data set, create a box plots of Annual Income and Revenue. Which of the following income brackets appears to have the least variation in revenue (purchase amounts)?

Correlations

Using the Beta Employees data set, create a table of correlations between the variables Age, Prior Experience, Beta Experience, Education, and Annual Salary. (Look at Figure 3.18 in the example 3-3 document in Module 5 (Attached Image file for illustration purposes only). It shows a table of correlations like what you would need to produce. The bottom of the table shows the formula you would use to calculate the correlations for each cell.)

Pivot

Using the Supermarket data set, create a pivot table to find how many units were sold in total in the non-consumable category.

The purpose of this assignment is to finalize an internal business proposal that outlines how you will implement the solution to the problem you have identified in your organization.

Throughout the course, you have completed most of the necessary research and assignments needed to generate the final business proposal. Refer to the “Business Proposal Project Summary” document, as needed. The key sections you will focus on creating are the Executive Summary and the Conclusion/Call to Action.

Using feedback from the assignments in Topics 5-7, create your final business proposal document. Evidence of revision from instructor feedback will be assessed on the final business proposal, which should include each of the sections listed below.

1. Executive Summary (250 words) provides a short summary of the entire proposal so key stakeholders can see an overview of the proposal and understand it without reading the entire document.
2. Purpose Statement (100-250 words) provides clear statement of why the business proposal is being made.
3. Problem Statement (revised as needed from Topic 1 assignment feedback) including specific data (statistics and numbers) related to how the problem impacts the business. This part of the proposal should include the graph/chart/data you collected in Part 1 of the Topic 2 assignment.
4. Data and Research Findings (250-500 words) should include a summary of what you learned from conducting research related to what has already been done to address the organizational problem. This part of the proposal should include the graph/chart/data you collected in Part 2 of the Topic 2 assignment.
5. Proposed Solution (250-500 words) should include a summary of the top three problem solutions you considered to address the problem. In addition to including the graph/chart/data you collected in Part 3 of the Topic 2 assignment, this section should provide a succinct discussion of the pros and cons of implementing each of the top three solutions being considered to address the problem.
6. Stakeholder Analysis and Benefits (500 words, revised as needed from Topic 3 assignment feedback) summarizes all data and information related to the key stakeholders affected by the proposed problem solution along with a summary of benefits to be gained by stakeholders if the problem solution is implemented.
7. Change Management Plan (250-500 words) clearly articulates specific methods and strategies to be utilized to manage organizational changes associated with the selected solution implementation.
8. Implementation Methods (250-500 words) summarize specific strategies that will used to implement the problem solution, including time and costs associated with implementation of the solution.
9. Evaluating Success (250 words) summarize specific measures you will use to evaluate the success of the problem solution.
10. Conclusion/Call to Action (100 words) provides specific steps you would like key stakeholders and sponsors to take in the implementation of the proposed solution.

It is important to include specific data throughout the business proposal. Include statistics that support the problem statement that can be used to establish and track goals; relate to specifics of implementation, timing, and cost; and illustrate stakeholder benefits. The proposal is an internal document that will be read by stakeholders within the organization where the problem exists, so keep this in mind and focus on this audience as you write. Within the Word document, include subsection titles to organize content according to the categories listed above to provide easy reference points for the reader.

Herstory: a vivid documentation of the breadth and

diversity of American women’s achievements throughout U.S. history.

There have been women trailblazers throughout American history; Women have had a profound impact on the intellectual, social, and political development of our society. Buf many of their

confribufions have aone unnoticed. Most people have heard of Susan B. Anthony, Harriet Tub-man, Margaret Sanger, and Eleanor Roosevelt. But did you know that a woman microbiologist

discovered the bacterium responsible for undulant fever, which then led to the pasteurization of all milk? Or that a woman patented the paper-bag folding machine to make square-bottom bags (the grocery bag)? Or that a female mathematician’s work laid the foundation for ab-

stract algebra?

Most history passes over women. Our names and faces are missing, our stories omitted or distort-ed, and covered over by an endless masculine litany of kings, warlords, priests (with an occa-

sional queen or concubine — often a woman blamed for ruining everything).

But women have exercised power and determined the course of events and the forms of hu-man culture. Women founded, governed, invented and created. We have been leaders, prophets, scribes and authors, warriors and rebels against oppression, fighting for our rights and

for our peoples.

Girls and women suffer from a lack of knowledge about societies that accord power to women in public life: in religion, medicine. the arts, diplomacy, land management and inheritance. The-se crucial silences and omissions create the demoralizing impression that women have always been beneath men, Which is false.

In classic Eurocentric history, women end up as footnotes to the “main” story. Sandra Cisneros said of the search for Latina heroines, “We are the footnotes of the footnotes.” And yet the herit-ages of women of color, especially indigenous women, supply the most dramatic recent exam-

ples of societies that embraced open female power.

Even the tendency to focus on famous women or rulers is a distortion. We understand more if we expand our vision to include entire groups of creative and honored women, the inventors and clan elders, the healers, shamans, and priestesses. There is a clear interplay between these spir-itual offices and political power inmany indigenous societies.

Power itself has been conceived of very narrowly, as domination, force, and supremacy—top-down command, grasping and seizing goods and grinding down people. despoiling nature. These systems are more than patriarchal; they are colonial and imperial.

Looking past these blinders will give us a broader view of reality, one that takes in female spheres of power: Cultural. Foundational. Political. Social. Economic. Technological. Religious. Artistic. Medical. Scholarly. Physical. Agents of change and transformation.

To compound this absence of women in history, we live in a society where media is the most persuasive force shaping cultural norms and the collective message that our young women and men overwhelmingly receive is that a woman’s value and power lie in her youth, beauty, and

sexuality—not in her capacity as a leader. These messages limit children’s ideas of what is possi-ble in the world and can have damaging effects on their self-esteem, health, and the way they

treat others.

While women have made great strides in leadership over the past few decades, the United States is still 90th in the world for women in national legislatures, women hold only 3% of positions of Clout jn mainstream media, and 65% of women and girls have disordered eating behaviors.

How do you believe the exclusion of women from history and the images of women in main-stream media contribute to the under-representation of women in positions of power and influ-ence in America?

Advanced practice registered nurses are knowledgeable, educated, well trained and able to provide a plethora of services to patients. That being said, there are several barriers that have hindered the progress of advanced practice nursing including federal policies, outdated insurance reimbursement practices and institutional practices and culture within the workplace (Altman, 2016).

  Although progress has been made, there are still numerous federal policies that prevent APRN’s from practicing to the full extent of their training and education. In 2018, Congress issued legislation that made it possible for nurse practitioners (NPs) to oversee pulmonary and cardiac rehabilitation beginning in 2024, however NPs are still not able to order pulmonary and cardiac rehabilitation for their Medicare patients (AANP, 2021). Nurse Practitioners are both capable and qualified to provide these services, however this barrier only services to harm patients as it causes delays in treatment. Secondly, although (NPs) provide full range of care to individuals affected by Diabetes, they are still required to involve a physician when a patient requires therapeutic shoes. The NP must send the patient to a physician to confirm the need for the shoes, and the physician then must be tasked with being the provider treating the diabetic’s condition moving forward. Again, this causes major delays within the healthcare system and affects the overall health of the patient (AANP, 2011). Additionally, while NPs work as providers for hospice patients and are able to conduct assessments as well as establish and review care plans, they are prohibited from certifying eligibility for hospice programs. Once again, a physician is required, and additional costs are incurred. Currently, the American Association of Nurse Practitioners is calling on Congress to change many federal laws, including authorizing NPs to order cardiac and pulmonary rehabilitation services for Medicare patients, allowing for NPs to issue therapeutic shoes to diabetics without involving a physician and authorizing NPs to certify Medicare patients for Hospice Care (AANP, 2011).

 Historically, reimbursement for NP services has been scattered and confusing to say the least. In 1990, APRN direct reimbursement by Medicare was available only in rural areas and skilled nursing facilities. It was not until 1997 that direct reimbursement was made possible in all clinical settings as well as locations, however the rate was 85% of that of a physician. (Journal of Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nursing, 2012). This can be a huge issue, as NPs working in their own offices receive 15% less reimbursement than a physician’s office would. Furthermore, there is so much variability in Medicaid reimbursement between different states at a time when nurse practitioners are expected to take care of record numbers of patients utilizing Medicaid. Medicaid tends to follow federal guidelines as it relates to reimbursement, therefore the problem with a reduction in payment to nurse practitioners for service charges that are already exceptionally low is extremely significant (Edmunds, 2014). To combat this, nurse practitioners are bringing this to the federal level, and asking that NPs be reimbursed at the same rate as physicians when caring for Medicaid patients.

 Another barrier to the progress of advanced practice nursing is the culture of many settings where physicians and NPs interact on a daily basis. Although NPs possess the specific skillsets to diagnose, prescribe and treat, there is often physician opposition to independent NP practice, which is free from oversight or supervision (Schirle, et.al, 2018). There is also a major lack of understanding of the NPs role, and lack of recognition on a professional level. Studies have shown that NPs report lower job strain and increased job satisfaction when given higher levels of autonomy rather than being micromanaged (Schirle, et. al,2018). To manage this widespread issue, relationships between NPs and physicians should be improved and there should be more education provided as to the scope of the NPs role. Further, the NP should be treated with respect and professionally recognized for the services that they provide on a daily basis. Lastly, an appropriate amount of autonomy should exist for NPs to utilize their knowledge, educations and skillsets. By doing this, job satisfaction and productivity is increased, and patients are cared for by an NP that feels valued in the workplace.
