the situation that you describe in section 1 below, I want you to focus on a positive decision or action that involved ethics. The premise is that we are surrounded by positive ethical decisions every day, but since they don’t result in conflict or controversy, they go by mostly unnoticed or unacknowledged. You are to develop the ethical lens through which to see both ethical lapses (analysis paper # 1) as well as ethical applications (this paper). 1. Describe a situation in your life, either experienced or witnessed, in which a decision was made or action taken that involved ethics . (Please—no real names—disguise the people and places) 2. What was the outcome of the situation? 3. In your opinion, how much did the application of right application of ethics effect the outcome? 4. What ethical principles or ethical values did this situation involve? (check your notes for principles and values) 5. What biases or barriers did the ethical application overcome that might have not been overcome if the ethical application wasn’t applied? 6. How might the person’s (or persons’) organization (company or other entity) better incorporate or institutionalize this ethic to better systematize the ethical principle? Apply two biases/barries when you analyze your situation (the biases are in the attachment) Apply two ethical models Apply two values in your situation (the document called six pillars) .

Module 2: Methods of Ethical Analysis Application of Ethical Theories In module 1, we acquired a foundation in classical ethical theories. In this module, we will learn how to apply this knowledge to ethical challenges in today's business world and, more specifically, to the area of information technology. As we learned in module 1, the main traditional ethical theories tend to be either rule-based (deontological) or consequentialist (teleological). Both types of theories provide a framework for deciding whether actions are right, depending upon the consequences that result from the action (consequentialist) or whether the action follows the relevant rules for ethical behavior (deontological). Traditional ethical theories were intended to apply universally to ethical dilemmas and obviously didn't factor in issues such as marketplace competition, stockholders, and today's ever-changing world of information technology. Today's IT manager needs to be able to address ethical issues and to find resolutions in concrete business terms rather than engage in a philosophical ethical debate. However, we can use those theories to guide our ethical decision-making process. In addition to the ethical theories already presented, business ethics attempts to take traditional ethics and apply them practically to a business context. The normative theories of business ethics (NTBE), introduced to the information systems community in large part by Smith and Hasnas, provide three basic approaches to ethical problems: stockholder, stakeholder, and social contract theories (Smith, 2002). In this section, we will introduce those theories as well as make connections to classical theory. Normative Theories of Business Ethics As its name indicates, the stockholder theory of NTBE focuses on making ethical decisions that benefit stockholders. According to this theory, because stockholders have invested in the company for their own profit, actions taken by the company should be focused on benefiting the bottom line. A manager or employee has a responsibility to use corporate resources in ways that do not take away from the stockholders' benefits. Stockholder theory instructs managers to act within legal constraints. It does not instruct or encourage managers to ignore ethical constraints. Stakeholder theory expands a manager's responsibility beyond the stockholders to include anyone with an interest in the firm. This could include employees, customers, stockholders, and potentially even competitors. Given that there is a potential conflict among the interests of the various stakeholders, the manager's challenge is to balance those interests and to provide the best possible solution that does not substantially infringe on any individual stakeholder group. According to social contract theory, businesses have ethical obligations to benefit society by fulfilling customer and employee interests within the generally accepted rules or codes. If there were a hypothetical contract ...

READINGS: Introduction Unit II examines ethical, legal, and legislative issues affecting leadership and management as well as professional advocacy. This chapter focuses on applied ethical decision making as a critical leadership role for managers. Chapter 5 examines the impact of legislation and the law on leadership and management, and Chapter 6 focuses on advocacy for patients and subordinates and for the nursing profession in general. Ethics is the systematic study of what a person’s conduct and actions should be with regard to self, other human beings, and the environment; it is the justification of what is right or good and the study of what a person’s life and relationships should be, not necessarily what they are. Ethics is a system of moral conduct and principles that guide a person’s actions in regard to right and wrong and in regard to oneself and society at large. Ethics is concerned with doing the right thing, although it is not always clear what that is. Applied ethics requires application of normative ethical theory to everyday problems. The normative ethical theory for each profession arises from the purpose of the profession. The values and norms of the nursing profession, therefore, provide the foundation and filter from which ethical decisions are made. The nurse-manager, however, has a different ethical responsibility than the clinical nurse and does not have as clearly defined a foundation to use as a base for ethical reasoning. In addition, because management is a discipline and not a profession, its purpose is not as clearly defined as medicine or law; therefore, the norms that guide ethical decision making are less clear. Instead, the organization reflects norms and values to the manager, and the personal values of managers are reflected through the organization. The manager’s ethical obligation is tied to the organization’s purpose, and the purpose of the organization is linked to the function that it fills in society and the constraints society places on it. So, the responsibilities of the nurse-manager emerge from a complex set of interactions. Society helps define the purposes of various institutions, and the purposes, in turn, help ensure that the institution fulfills specific functions. However, the specific values and norms in any institution determine the focus of its resources and shape its organizational life. The values of people within institutions influence actual management practice. In reviewing this set of complex interactions, it becomes evident that arriving at appropriate ethical management decisions can be a difficult task. In addition, nursing management ethics are distinct from clinical nursing ethics . Although significant research exists regarding ethical dilemmas and moral distress experienced by staff nurses in clinical roles, less research exists regarding the ethical distress experienced by nursing managers. Nursing management ethics are also distinct from other areas of m.

stutikhandhadiya21

In an organization, the managers and the executives are encountered with hundreds of situations where they need to make prudence decisions which are morally and ethically justifiable. In a company there are set rules, need for hierarchical sanctions, department pressures, the need for cost cutting and enchanting profit, maintaining the reputation of the company and considering the interests of all pressure groups and stakeholders. Though there is no fixed outline for making ethical decisions, there are some factors that would influence one’s decision can be understood. However, based on the different case studies, research findings, we can conceptualize a framework for understanding ethical decision making in business.

The specific topics. Choose and develop one. Discuss the development of the epic narrator from Homer's "sing, goddess," to Virgil's "arms and the man I sing" and beyond. How does the nature of the voice telling the story change through the history of the epic tradition? Does the changing role of the narrator reflect other changes, perhaps in the relationship of the author to the material and the audience? Discuss at least three works, including, at a minimum, the Iliad , the Aeneid , and either The Nibelungenlied , Parzival , or The Divine Comedy. Discuss the interpretabilty of the epic. It has been argued, for example, that the works of Homer are "all surface." Certain epics, on the other hand, seem to demand to be read on multiple levels. How does this change over time? How does the epic develop as an art form capable of conveying multiple and complex meanings? Discuss at least three works, including, at a minimum, one work by Homer, the Aeneid , and at least one medieval work. Discuss the phenomenon of intertextuality in the epic tradition. How do creators of epics embed their works in the epic tradition and/or connect them to earlier works? How does this creation of connections contribute to the meaning or artistic quality of the individual epic? Discuss at least three works, including the Aeneid and at least one medieval work. Discuss the nature of the hero in ancient and medieval epic. What are the characteristics of the hero in Homer, Virgil, and beyond? How is Aeneas different from Achilles, or how is Dante the Pilgrim different from Aeneas? Does the epic hero embody moral or ethical or spiritual values that the poem appears to endorse? Or is the hero just the best fighter and the toughest man? Discuss the heroes of at least three epics, including at least one ancient and at least one medieval epic. Consider the miniature paintings representing two important moments in the Divine Comedy -- the opening image of Dante lost in the woods and the image/s of Dante and Virgil with Paolo and Francesca (Inferno 5.88-142) in three manuscripts -- Yates Thompson 36, Holkham Misc. 48, and BN it. 2017. Details on these manuscripts, and the images you need to work with, are to be found in "The Divine Comedy in the Visual Arts for the Final Paper" in Sakai Resources. You may choose to narrow the topic by discussing only the images of Dante lost in the woods OR Dante and Virgil with Paolo and Francesca. Look carefully at the images and compare them to the text passages that they most closely reflect. Do the images follow the words of the text closely, or could they be said to represent narrative ideas more than specific words and phrases? How much potential do these images have for independent narrative? Could they in any way tell the story to non-reading viewers? Or do they seem to be intended for readers to look at while reading the Comedy ? Do the images offer visual commentaries or explanations of the Comedy? Compare three visual.

The Strategic Principles of Consensus Organizing Can you teach people how to be strategic? It’s a question that trainers and teachers often ask as they approach a new training program or a classroom full of eager faces. Thinking strategically and pragmatically is the hallmark of a good consensus organizer. Consensus organizing is based on several key strategic principles that are the fundamental beliefs and values that guide the implementation of the model and its activities. These principles also express the philosophy and the attitude behind the consensus organizing approach. As consensus organizers begin to enter a community, these principles are at the forefront of their minds as their organizing strategy takes shape. This chapter explains these principles and why they are important to consensus organizing. Table 3.1 summarizes the five core strategic principles of consensus organizing (Consensus Organizing Institute, n.d.). Table 3.1 Strategic Principles of Consensus Organizing Strategic Principle Key Strategies Example Solution s to local problems should come from affected communities. Strategies and objectives are set by the community. Incorporate community’s existing social networks. Analyze and identify individual self-interests and mutual community interests and build relationships based on those interests. Residents bring recent crime problems to the attention of the local police and ask for assistance in developing a crime watch program. The local police work with residents to develop a neighborhood watch. Relationships are built between residents and the police. Pragmatic leadership is present in communities, though not always recognized. Identify trusted, respected, behind-the-scenes leaders. Position leaders to take responsibility for effort. Build leaders’ skills and confidence to succeed. An older woman to whom young mothers turn for parenting help. A teacher who stays after school hours to help his students with their studies. Self-interest can be harnessed as a motivation for improving the welfare of communities. Analyze and identify the interests of members of external power structure (e.g., government, philanthropy, corporate, social service). Position them to make genuine contributions aligned with their and the community’s interests. A local foundation director who has $1 million to improve housing in local distressed neighborhoods, but who does not have relationships with community-based organizations located in those neighborhoods. If a project achieves its short-term goals without positioning the participants to make even greater gains in the future, then an opportunity has been missed. Position community leaders to take the lead on projects. Use short-term projects to build community’s skills and relationships with power structure to lay the foundation for more comprehensive efforts. A neighborhood cleanup that builds relationships among residents and between residents and the city can lead to new opportunities, su.

The Stafford Act and the presidential declaration process works like hand in glove you might say to provide assistance to states when a disaster happens. Congress debated the issue of the Stewart Mckinney-Robert Stafford Act before passing. (Haddow 2013, p. 9). Haddow (2013) noted that “In the United States, a presidential disaster declaration is what makes available the range of resources available to the affected local and state governments as established through the Stafford Act.” (p. 192). For the president to be able to assist there has to be guidance that addresses authority and procedural requirements for the federal government to provide assistance at the tribal, state or local level. Sylves (2014) noted that “the Stafford Act reauthorizes the President to issue major disaster and emergency declarations, sets broad eligibility criteria, and specifies the type of assistance the President may authorize.” (p. 72). The president has the freedom to interpret narrowly or broadly what is declared a major disaster on a case by case basis. (Sylves 2014, p. 99). Haddow (2013) noted that “Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (The Stafford Act) occurs about 44 times each year on average (in addition to major emergency and fire management assistance declarations which provide more limited assistance).” (p. 201). “There is over 30 federal department that works within the NRF structure with the ability to assist local and state officials.” (Haddow 2013, p. 191). While it can be asked if stats over-use the emergency program, the facts are the president has to approve these actions. States may take full advantage of the resources available to help limit the direct cost and impact to state budget and local economy. Sylves (2014) noted that “The Stafford Act does not prescribe exact criteria to guide FEMA recommendations or the president’s decision.” (p. 109). Events and disasters have created requirements to make changes to the Stafford Act. Haddow (2013) noted that “In February of 2001, the Preparedness Against Domestic Terrorism Act of 2001 was passed, which amended the Stafford Act to include acts of terrorism within its definition of “major disaster,” which formalized how the federal disaster support in terrorism incidents would take place.” (p. 329). The 2001 change also noted that the Director of FEMA was to implement the federal emergency preparedness plans and made the FEMA Director responsible for establishing the President’s Council on Domestic Preparedness to limit or eliminate duplication of preparedness within the federal terrorism preparedness program. (Sylves 2014, p. 329). The Stafford Act is not without critics. The concern that approval of disaster relief would become more politically generated to influence elections or to stay in office. Sylves (2014) pointed out that “For Reeves, “the Stafford Act transformed the disaster declaration process into a highly political exercise.” (p. 121). You do not predict when a disaster i.

The Size of Government Discussion one Due Saturday Sunday now One of the most contentious issues that divide conservatives and liberals is the size of government. Conservatives often argue that government has bloated beyond any reasonable extent, while liberals frequently see a larger government role in society — thus requiring a larger federal bureaucracy. Do you believe that the size of the federal bureaucracy has kept pace with the increasing demands on government? Would Americans trade lower taxes for a much smaller federal government, even if there was a decrease in public services for ordinary citizens? Are claims that the United States is burdened by “so-called” big government mistaken, or should government be enlarged to meet the expanding needs of a growing nation? Respond to at least two of your classmates’ postings. Cropf, R. (2008). American public administration: public service for the 21st century (1st ed.) New York, NY: Pearson Longman.

You may choose an agency that you have had personal experience with, or you may choose a public agency that you are familiar with from the news or from academic study. Assess the scope of services provided to the public by that agency or department, the growth of the agency in question, or the quality levels of customer service provided by the agency. Discuss the reasons why that agency has changed in this area over the last 25 years, and speculate on the future direction of that agency in the years ahead.

The Second Book Review is based upon required course readings that proffer contemporary accounts of the lived experience of Confucianism and Islam. The reviews call for you to consider the contemporary expressions of these faiths and to reflect upon their relevance to your own and our collective societal experience--To consider how central teachings, principals and practices of these faith traditions could be introduced and implemented into your own life, experience and American culture so as to lend to your personal and our collective edification. In light of the above description from our course syllabus, your review of Ali Eteraz’s book, Children of the Dust, ought to consider the following: How journey is a common motif in spiritual writings—Eteraz’s journey from childhood to adulthood and from Pakistan to the United States and how these journeys, in turn, convey Eteraz’s evolving self-understanding, spiritual maturation, understanding of Islam, etc. Eteraz’s and his family’s experience of Islam/the Islamic ethos during their residency in Pakistan and America, respectively. How Islam/the Islamic ethos is expressed in contemporary Pakistani culture—Including, when relevant/pertinent, consideration and assessment of central Islamic tenets operative in and experienced by the Eteraz’s during their residency in contemporary Pakistan. The Eteraz’s experience of how Islam is perceived by certain segments of the population in the United States via consideration of relevant/pertinent experiences of the Eteraz’s during their residency in contemporary America…and how Ali’s American experiences impacted, informed, shaped and colored his spiritual journey and his understanding of his faith/religion. What lessons we can take from Eteraz’s experiences that might contribute to a better social experience in our culture and to the improvement of ourselves as individuals as we undergo our own journeys and spiritual maturation, and as our own religious understandings and sensitivities evolve. Additionally: Allow the review to be an occasion by which you reflect upon and consider aspects, anecdotes and aspects of the book and the experience of Eteraz which particularly struck you in some way—positively and/or negatively—and critically engage and assess why this was the case. This may lead some to gravitate on issues relevant to social analysis or cultural rites of passage or interpersonal relationships or religious toleration…In short, there is freedom for you to pursue points of particular interest to you and/or relevant to your major… .

The science of psychology has steadily been moving more toward a biological basis during the early 20th century but researchers found that it really didn't explain all the nuances of human behavior. One of the more famous experiments is the Pavlov dog experiment, which described unconditioned and conditioned responses. James Watson went one step further describing behavior from what then emerged as Behaviorism. It was B.F. Skinner that shaped Behaviorism into its current state, through research on operant conditioning. Behaviorism still didn't provide all the answers; psychology continues to evolve into different areas such as cognitive psychology. Explain why Pavlov's experiments in reflexology were an important part in the development of psychology. Describe behaviorism from Watson’s perspective; then, compare and contrast his viewpoints with operational positivism and the prevailing functionalism. What are the major similarities and differences between Watson and Skinner's behaviorism? From your understanding of psychological principles, which of them had a greater influence in the areas of both research and applied psychology? Psychology seems to have emerged as a science, but with an eclectic view of how to understand behavior. Do you agree or disagree with this statement? Is there a difference between the research aspect of psychology and the applied side of psychology in terms of theoretical perspectives? .

The roles and responsibilities of physicians are changing. Physicians were once the sole determinants of hospital admissions. Now, those admissions are controlled by a prospective payment system that monitors the length of stays and the costs of resources used for each diagnosis. This scrutiny has placed additional stressors on the hospital-physician relationship leading to some hospitals and physicians being in competition with each other rather than working in alignment. Review the following journal article: Lovrien, K., & Peterson, L. (2011). Hospital-physician alignment making the relationship work. Healthcare Financial Management, 65 (12), 72–78. (EBSCO AN: 69683043). Using the readings for this week and the Internet, create a 12–15-slide PowerPoint presentation with a minimum of three credible references that includes separate title and reference slides. Cover the following: Illustrate the changing hospital-physician relationship. Describe the previous responsibilities of both the hospital and the physician in the hospital-physician relationship. Explain the factors creating the need for a change in this relationship. Recommend strategies to maintain a healthy working relationship between physicians and hospitals to provide cost-efficient and patient-focused care. Support your statements with scholarly references and appropriate examples. .
