Mgt 311 Week 3

Day 1: Do you believe that it is genetics, environment or both that determine behavior? I believe that it is a mixture of both, but primarily it is your environment that helps determine what type of person you are. I think everyone can be taught to behave in a certain way, I know this for a fact since my five children all have different personalities, but are some of the most well-behaved kids you can meet. Additionally, being in the military for twelve years, I met people from all over the United States, and it is astonishing how depending on where you were raised can change your opinions on many different topics. I also say it is something you are born with because I can see more traits of me in one kid over the other.

17. Environments exist when decision makers lack complete certainty regarding the outcomes of various courses of action, but they are aware of the probabilities associated with their occurrence

In the beginning, Jake at first is nervous and frustrated that Amy is late. Which is a lack of commitment from Amy's side, and Jake is just feeling the effects of it. When Amy does get there, Jake starts to ask questions and is very aggressive about it; all the while he does not give her a chance to speak. This is another type of transgression, Jake is displaying problematic emotions while he is addressing Amy. Also while Jake is questioning Amy, she is acting suspiciously, and either trying to avoid the question or delaying the answer. Which does not help and actually makes the situation worse, between the two. Throughout the session they are both distant, no touching whatsoever and avoiding eye contact. Things do get pretty heated between the two, and Jake even pressured the counselor into revealing what his thoughts are; in which was unsatisfying to both of them.

Amanda and Erica’s grades may differ for a variety of reasons. Studies show that the more academic activities a parent is involved in is significantly associated with their child having higher literacy achievement, lower rates of grade retention, and fewer years needing special education (Miedel & Reynolds, 2000). Amanda’s father’s income, education, and occupation also all correlate with her literacy abilities (Buckingham, Wheldall, & Beaman-Wheldall, 2013). Parental education has the strongest influence of the three (Buckingham, Wheldall, & Beaman-Wheldall, 2013).

This week I have talked to three different people who enjoyed hearing about our projects. These people are my wife, Mariko Konno, who loves running marathons, Yoko Hosokawa who is my sister and is planning to run in the Honolulu Marathon, Patrick Cervantes who is a barber at College of Hair Design in Lincoln. Here are the following details:

The show that I used for this assignment was Friends. I felt that Joey played the role of the leader. When Ross told everyone he was moving, Joey was the first person to speak up about how he felt. He told the others they needed to do something to keep Ross from moving. He also went to Ross personally, and tried to convince him from following through with the move. I felt that Phoebe was the opinion giver. She kept informing the group that it was Ross' life and they should respect his decision. Whenever Joey would try to tell Ross how he felt, Phoebe would intervene to distract him. She also agreed when Ross got upset with the group. She told everyone it wasn't right to interfere with his life. With Joey taking the leader role, he helped the

Week 12 consisted of us having completed an individual draft of Part’s 1 and 2 to look at. These drafts were placed into our Google drive, making it easier to look at them as a whole for our group. We then met up that Friday to discuss and create a second draft with our collaborated and agreed upon works. Due to Amy not being here for this one, she made sure her documents were there ahead of schedule to use. I also had gotten several different resources to look at to aid us in creating our strategic plan. We chose our recommended resources.

Would it be possible for team 4 to go either 1st or 2nd for the presentation next week as I work nights and will need to leave for work at 10:30 (9:30 eastern) and hoping not to miss any part of out teams presentation.

Of all the aspects of MTI, innovation strategy is the most challenging. Firms can be very good at the various activities involved in MTI, such as R & D or operations, but this count for little unless it is supported by a well-grounded innovation strategy that guides firms’ choices, prioritizations, and sequences. There is little value in being highly efficient at developing or delivering new products and services if they are the wrong products and services for the firm and its markets. Well-chosen new products and services deliver value, build the technological base of the firm, develop its capabilities, improve its processes, and add to its reputation and brands. An innovation strategy helps firms decide, in a cumulative and

During our summer experience, there was some discontent in my group. When relationships did not go well, focusing on the paper and presentation was the only thing that got me through the group work. In the end, we made it, but I would have much preferred a strong emphasis on both tasks and relationships as reflected in this questionnaire.

This writing assignment was second to the last of all four in-class writing assignments for us after Essay 2, the group research paper. Our task was to respond with our feedback on how working together as a group was for this essay. Despite not being graded, there was so much more I had to say on it, since I was grateful for having great group members and great teamwork. I was pretty confused still on individual part instructions, so I reached out to my group members in a group chat, seeking for guidance. If it wasn’t for them, I wouldn’t have been able to complete my portion of the research paper.

For the Model of Human Occupation project, everyone in my group contributed differently. The biggest contribution I participated in was getting everyone together, in person, to work on the project. If I did not ask or gather people together, the group did not meet or make an initiative to get together. For the draft essay, I wrote out and described all of the search methods, audiovisuals, agenda and time sequence, and responsibilities, while Cassidy and Lily focused on the description, and search methods. I also found the audiovisual YouTube video to show during the presentation, created the Jeopardy game and ensured that it was functioning correctly, set up and organized the PowerPoint while including information on each slide, bought all

Once the weekly assignment posted Jesse contacted me via phone to ask if I was part of a group as it relates to what we had to do for the class. I explained no, I was not and there our group was formed. Due our hectic schedules we decided to use multiple methods of communication to complete the task at hand. We decided to have multiple phone conferences as it pertains to the assignment. We also collaborated via email and met while at work. Our final step was to review the post and make a decision as it pertains to what needed to remain in the post and omit unnecessary or repetitive information.

The team leader or other designated individual should upload the final group document to the ASSIGNMENTS tool located in the course website. In addition, EACH MEMBER OF THE GROUP SHOULD SUBMIT THEIR PORTION OF THE PAPER TO ME AS AN ATTACHMENT TO MY COURSE EMAIL. THIS IS MANDATORY. Non-compliance will result in deduction of points from final project

There were many positives and negatives while working in a group but in the end the issues had to be put aside in order to finish the program. Each health educator contributed an adequate amount of work towards implementing the program. Every interim report was distributed in parts to each of the health educators but worked on as a group. At certain times, health educators became irritable with each other and wanted to separate because we felt like the group was not working well together. Part of the issue was procrastination because of busy schedules and the numerous amount of hours needed to be designated for this assignment. In some areas of the project, certain health educators contributed more because of the specific skills they acquired in previous classes.
