BHD461 Module 1 SLP

Module 1 – SLP

LEADERSHIP IN HEALTH EDUCATION AND SECURING FUNDING FOR HEALTH EDUCATION PROGRAMS

One of the first tasks that you may be asked to undertake upon, as a health educator, is to develop a program and to securing funding for the program. As such, the aim of this session long project is to familiarize you with the development of a program and the grant proposal process.

There are two parts to this assignment.

Your Task:

Part I: Identify a health problem to be addressed by the health education intervention for which you will seek funding. This problem should affect a local population in the area in which you work or reside and should be something that lends itself to prevention, e.g., obesity, stroke, diabetes, domestic violence, child abuse, teen pregnancy, fetal alcohol spectrum disorders (FASD), drug abuse, HIV/AIDS, etc. Use the scholarly literature to support your selection of this health problem.

NOTE: Please provide your response in a 2-page essay in which you will identify the problem, define the local population affected by the problem, and state the rationale for proposing a health education intervention to address this problem. Endeavor to use scholarly literature in identifying the problem.

NOTE: Keep in mind that this essay will provide vital information for your concept paper in your next SLP assignment.

Part II: Your project will entail identifying a mini-grant funding opportunity for a hypothetical educational program/project of your choosing and constructing a mini-grant application. Mini-grants are small grants made to support projects, programs, or events related to an area of interest/concern to a funder. Applications for mini-grants are typically shorter than those for traditional grants, making it easier for individuals/organizations new to the grant seeking process to apply for and secure funds.

Conduct an Internet search to identify a mini-grant that could be used to support an intervention to address the health problem you selected in Module 1.

  • What is the name of this program (please provide the URL for the web site from which on which the program appears)?
  • What are the requirements of this mini-grant program? Specifically,
    • Who can apply? (e.g., individuals, non-profit organizations, anyone?)
    • What types of projects are funded? (e.g., educational, special events, materials development?)
    • What amounts are awarded? (i.e., maximum amount over what period of time?)
    • Of what components should a proposal consist? (e.g., a letter of intent, a project description, a budget?)
    • What is the deadline for submitting a proposal? (i.e., specific deadline or ongoing?)
    • When are applicants notified of the award decision?

Length: Part 1 should be no less than 2 pages.

Length: Part 2 should be no less than 3 pages. Limit set by funding agency requirements relative to the specific mini-grant program.

SLP Assignment Expectations

Assessment and Grading: Your paper will be assessed based on the performance assessment rubric that is linked within the course. Review it before you begin working on the assignment.

The following guidance appears only in Module 1, but it applies to the assignments throughout the course:

File format:   Your work should be prepared using Microsoft Word, PowerPoint, or Excel depending upon the assignment instructions. For assignments requiring video or voice recordings, use media formats that are supported by MyTLC Courses as noted in our Trident Support page.

In-text citations and references: Be sure that all information and ideas in your papers are supported by in-text citations and corresponding references at the end of the paper.

Scholarly sources:   At least three scholarly sources should be included in your paper. Online sources must be limited to credible professional and scholarly publications such as peer-reviewed journal articles, e-books, or specific webpages on websites from a university, government, or nonprofit organization (these have extensions .edu, .gov, or .org). Presenting consumer sources such as e-magazines, newspapers, Wikipedia, WebMD, or other commercial websites (these have extensions .com) as references is not appropriate.

Scholarly writing:   Use an academic paper format, not an essay based on your opinions or experience. Avoid using the first person in writing. Synthesize what you learned from the sources you read; write papers in your own words; and cite sources within the text, as well as include a properly formatted reference list.

Use of direct quotes: Use of direct quotes should be avoided. Only use direct quotes when preserving the exact words of an author is necessary. In the rare instance that directly quoted material is used, it must be properly cited (with quotation marks and page numbers in the in-text citation); quotes should not exceed 5-10% of the total paper content.

DUE DATE APRIL 30

Drawing from your review of the many sites across the course and gathered wholly on the L&A page of Module 8, or from your personal knowledge, interest and experience, select a recent crisis event: disaster/mass casualty event (occurring within the last 5 years).  You are to take this disaster case and then prepare a research paper that analyzes the event from the four disciplines of emergency management: Mitigation; Preparedness; Response; and Recovery.

In your analysis discuss the specific actions that were taken at each stage and assess whether or not they were effective. Include a discussion of how human behavior influences disaster vulnerability such as allowing development in flood prone areas, or living along the coast (and what can be done about this). Conclude your paper with a detailed discussion of the lessons learned for future crisis events.

Your paper should be approximately 7 pages (at least 1,500 words) and must include key concepts from the textbook and at least five (5) outside scholarly sources.

This assignment is due at the end of Module 8

This is a final course comprehensive project.  Be sure to include citations for all references, including information about the incident.  Also, use scholarly material for your alternative theory, (Wikipedia is not permitted as a source), and any support for your discussion.  Your textbook from the class should be your starting point, but your primary sources of information should be scholarly in nature.

C.K. Worth Case Study

C. K. Worth Co., Ltd., was founded by Clayton Ken Worth, who also serves as president. C. K. Worth’s primary activity is representing U.S. processed and fresh foods to retail and food service distributors. The company is also engaged in representing processed and fresh food producers in international trade. Principals in the company have many years of business experience in sales and the food industry. The company has been in business for twenty-five years, and President Worth is interested in diversifying the company’s products to ensure its continued growth and success.

C. K. Worth has employed Kathy Green for the past twenty years. During that time, Green has worked in various capacities with the company. She has seen the company grow from a small operation to a large brokerage firm, which employs fifteen salespeople located throughout the United States. However, Green always thought that the C. K. Worth Co. should expand its services to represent other U.S. and international products. Given that Green has a sport background and has tracked the growth of the sport industry over the past decade, she approached Worth with the idea that the company should expand its product line to include sporting goods. Green was confident that the Worth Co. could improve its profit margins by representing another product line, in addition to food. After listening to Green’s idea, Worth developed a sporting goods division within Worth Co. and named Green as its vice president. Her job was develop a plan to expand the company’s services to include sporting good products and to get the division up and running.

Green was excited about the opportunity and proceeded to develop a plan for C. K. She developed a mission statement for the sporting goods division, which was to represent manufacturers of sporting goods products in sport retail stores within the United States. Her goal was to acquire at least ten product lines. With the approval of Worth, Green attended the National Sporting Goods Association shows in New York, Chicago, Dallas, and Los Angeles. In addition, she contacted sport manufacturers by telephone, letter, email, and personal visits requesting to represent their products. Within six months, Green had acquired more than twenty product lines to represent to sporting good retail stores. Primary lines acquired were Converse, Salzenger, and some Wilson products. She was pleased with the product lines, and reported her progress to Worth.

After their meeting, Worth decided that, instead of hiring salespeople specifically for the sporting goods division, it would be more efficient to use the existing food sales force to represent the sporting goods products. Green thought it would be better to hire a sales force specifically for sporting goods products, however. Worth stated that he did not have the resources to hire new sales personnel; instead, Green should train the existing food sales forces to sell the sporting goods products. Given the situation, Green scheduled a sales meeting to discuss the selling of sporting good products.

Fourteen of the fifteen sales personnel attended the meeting. Although some personnel were happy to have another product line to sell, many voiced their opposition to selling sporting good products—stating that they did not believe that the product lines of food and sporting goods were compatible. After much discussion, however, the entire sales force decided to give the sporting goods line a try. After all, as one salesperson stated, “selling is selling.” Green distributed procedures for selling the sporting goods line and assigned sales territories to be the same as the food territories.

As time went by it became apparent to Green that having food sales reps sell sporting goods products was not working. She received phone calls from manufacturers complaining about the lack of knowledgeable people selling their product. In addition, she received phone calls from retail stores stating that the reps did not seem interested in the products and that they were providing poor service. Green reported the situation to Worth.

Worth’s reaction was simple. He instructed Green to “either get the food sales force to do a good job in selling sporting good products or get rid of the sporting goods line.” Green decided to work with the sales force a while longer. She provided more training and sales meeting. Sales personnel attendance at the meeting went down, as did the sales of sporting goods products. Furthermore, manufacturers were beginning to pull their lines from the C. K. Worth Company. Given all these facts, Green decided that she could no longer support having the C. K Worth Company sell sporting goods products. Therefore, fifteen months after the inception of the Sporting Goods Division of C. K. Worth Company, Worth discontinued the division upon Green’s recommendation.

1. How effective was the C. K. Worth Company’s planning regarding the sporting goods product lines? Where did the company go wrong? What planning steps could have been considered and/or undertaken to improve the effectiveness of the sporting goods product lines?

2. In what areas were the goals of the food division and the sporting goods division compatible, and in what areas were the goals not compatible? Explain.

3. Undertake and report the results of a SWOT analysis for the expansion of C. K. Worth Company’s business into sporting goods product lines. What factors should have been considered in the decision to create a new division to sell sporting goods?

4. If you were an advisor to Worth and Green, what advice would you have provided to them about planning, budgeting, goals, forecasting, and knowledge management?

5. Go online and locate two sporting good manufacturers’ websites to determine how they sell their products. What types of information are included in these manufacturers’ mission statements?

  

Assess the role of a business process within the strategic structure of an organization.

 

Your book proposes a business process management (BPM) model that consists of 10 phases. As you learn about each of these phases, you will be applying the concepts to a specific business process. You will select the process you will use in this assignment.

You will prepare the foundation for your project by identifying a real-world organization that would benefit from applying the business process management (BPM) model in the workplace. You may select the organization where you currently work OR where you previously worked. If possible, you should strive to choose an organization and process that you have knowledge about. If you select an organization that you do not have direct contact with, be sure you can gather sufficient information (via the library, the Internet, or by interview) about the organization and its operations.

It is important to select a process that will provide a good basis for applying the various phases that you will be learning. As you learn further topics and complete subsequent assignments, you will use this process to answer questions such as:

  • What are the strategies/goals of your company and how does your selected process support/fit them?
  • Who are the stakeholders in the process, what are their expectations, and what are the goals of the process?
  • What are some specific metrics for measuring the performance of your process now and later? What are some quick wins for your project?
  • What are the risks for your project, ways to mitigate them, and the best leader type for this project?
  • What is the best implementation strategy for your process, pilots, and contingency plans for your project?

In order to be able to answer these questions, you will need to select a business process that has strategic significance in the organization, involves multiple people, and has sufficient complexity to require measurement and planning. If you pick a process that is too limited, not strategic, or too vague, you will not be able to analyze these elements later on.

To gain a better understanding of what is coming up, carefully read the 2-1/2-page summary of the 10 phases that starts on p. 106 in your textbook. This will give you an idea of what type of questions you will be asking about the process you select.

Instructions for Assignment 1

For this assignment, compose a paper that includes the following components (use the subheadings below):

Part 1: Information about the Organization You Selected

Identify and provide details regarding the organization for which you will be presenting information about the BPM model.

Basic information: Company name, location, size, and primary business area (What does the business do?). Also, describe what connection you have to the organization, if any. If not, explain how you will gather information about their operations.

Implementation strategy: Use the model by Treacy and Wiersma in Chapter 13 and identify which one of the three strategic options fits the company’s approach the best; explain how and why.

Part 2: Information about the Process You Selected

Describe the specific business process that you have selected to analyze in your assignments.

Clearly state:

  1. The objective of the process.
  2. The scope: Where the process begins and ends.
  3. A brief description of those involved.

Explain each item:

  • Significance: Does this process have some strategic significance or a significant impact on the operations of the organization? Would company executives care about changes to the process? Explain your answers.
  • Scope: Does this process have various stakeholders, in addition to multiple people involved in its execution? List both the stakeholders and the various people involved in carrying out the process.
  • Clarity: Is it possible to identify and list the steps in this process, from beginning to end? Briefly list at least five steps, including who executes them.
  • Outcomes: Are there specific goals and deliverables associated with this process that can be listed and measured? Describe at least two.

In order to ensure the process you select is rich enough to support this project, your answer to the items in the preceding checklist must be “yes.” If you find that you cannot answer the questions above, you will need to pick another process. Otherwise you will have difficulty with subsequent assignments.

Part 3: Strategic Justification

  1. Why should the company undertake a BPM project on this process? (What are some triggers based on Table 4.1?)
  2. How can this business or organization benefit from a BPM effort?

Part 4: Alignment of the Process to the Company Strategy

Based on the concepts in Chapter 13, assess the following elements:

  1. How well does the process you selected support strategic choice (based on #1–2 above)? Your analysis should be specific to the selected business process and not a general discussion of the business.
  2. Where in Table 13.7 would this process fall with respect to the BPM activity and approach? Explain.

Discussion: Core Competencies of Leaders and Managers in Healthcare Settings

 

Direct care settings [noun]
“Those organizations that provide care directly to a patient, resident or client who seeks services from the organization” (Buchbinder & Thompson, 2010, pp. 33–34).

Non–direct care settings [noun]
Organizations “not directly involved in providing care to persons needing health services, but rather support the care of individuals through products and services made available to direct care settings” (Buchbinder & Shanks, 2019, pp. 1–2).

One of the many differentiators in terms of healthcare leadership is setting. Healthcare leaders and managers may choose to work in settings that provide direct services, such as a hospital or clinic—or nondirect services—such as a community health foundation. Why might healthcare professionals choose to work in one path over another? And what particular characteristics, roles, and functions are needed to successfully manage one type of setting over another?

To prepare for this Discussion:

  • Complete the readings in your Learning Resources.
  • Review the profiles of the various healthcare managers who work in a healthcare setting in this week’s Required Media. (Click on the organizational charts to learn more about the healthcare professionals in direct, nondirect, and physician practice settings.

References:

By Day 4

Post a comprehensive response to the following:

  • Explain the roles and functions of healthcare managers and leaders in direct and nondirect service healthcare settings.
  • Select one individual from a direct care setting and one individual from a nondirect setting in either the Welcome to Waldenville or the Good Samaritan Hospital’s Organization Chart—Week 1 media, and describe their core competencies.
    • How are these core competencies of the featured leaders similar and different?
    • In which setting would you prefer to work, and why?

Please be sure to cite your resources using APA style within your post. Please try to select specific public health examples that are different from those posted by your classmates for this discussion.

Essay One

1. Evaluate the similarities and differences in the European colonization of the Americas by the Spanish, English, and French in North America before 1760.

2. Explain how centering the Native American experience in North America before 1760- instead of the European colonists’ experience- would alter how historians view the colonial era.

3. Compare and contrast varying forms of unfreedom in the colonies experienced by African and African American slaves, indentured European servants, and Native American captives.

A paper with no citations is an F paper.

Discussion 66

 

Murder Case

Preamble

An organization system administrator was labeled as the key suspect in a homicide case. The accused claimed that he was at work at the time of the murder. 

Police Intervention

The police asked his employer to help them verify his alibi. Unpredictably, the same organization, occasionally trained law enforcement personnel to investigate computer crimes and was eager to help in the investigation. 

Collaborative Strength: 

The organization worked with police to assemble an investigative team, seized the suspect computers in his office and residence, and backup tapes on a file server managed by his employer. All of these evidence were stored in a room to where only members of the team had access. 

Harsh Situation

At the initial stages, the operation appeared reasonably well documented, but the reconstruction process was a disaster. The investigators made so many omissions and mistakes that one computer expert when reading the investigator’s logs, suggested that the fundamental mistake was that the investigators locked all of the smart people out of the room. The investigators, in this case, were unaware of the situation and unwilling to admit the slip-up.

As a result of the investigators’ omissions and mistakes, the suspect’s alibi could not work together. Digital evidence to support the suspect’s alibi was identify later but not by the investigators. If the investigators had sought expert assistance to deal with a large amount of digital evidence, they might have quickly confirmed the suspect’s alibi rather than putting him through years of investigation and leaving the murderer to go free.

Lesson Learned

  • The case amplifies forensic investigators’ requirements to obtain fundamental knowledge of computers, compatible operating systems, and application software programs.
  • Forewarning forensic investigators to seek the assistance of the system administrator during the criminal investigation. 

Scenario 

  • You have been retained as a Deputy Technology officer at the University and charged with the responsibility of developing an Acceptable User Policy for the department of computer science based on this murder case.
  • Question 1
  • Use the AUP to amplify the advantages and disadvantages of investigators’ quarterly training on most currently used operating systems such as Microsoft Windows, Macintosh, UNIX, Linux, Sun System, and more. 

Scenario 2

  • The investigators, in this case, were unaware of the situation and unwilling to admit the slip-up. As a result of such omissions and mistakes, the suspect’s alibi could not work together. Digital evidence to support the suspect’s alibi was identify later but not by the investigators. If the investigators had sought expert assistance to deal with a large amount of digital evidence, they might have quickly confirmed the suspect’s alibi rather than putting him through years of investigation and leaving the murderer to go free.
  • Question 2 “Investigators allowed the Murderer to go free.”

2:1. Defend the impasse of the investigator’s unwillingness to admit the slip-up?

2:2 Use the Acceptable User Policy to amplify why the murderer was allowed to go free and penalties for violations.
