[Solved] Least 2 Common Negotiation

Description

For this course, you will be working on a Key Assignment. Throughout this course, you will use the Negotiation Strategy Planning Template to guide your research and analysis. Each week, you will complete a portion of the Negotiation Strategy Planning Template using the information provided. After completing the template, in Week 5, you will apply what you have learned to a negotiating scenario. Your final Key Assignment will be complete in Unit 5, and it will include the completed Negotiation Strategy Planning Template and a presentation based on the provided scenario.

Access the Negotiation Strategy Planning Template.

Planning Scenario

Your company manufactures DELAMIX blenders, and you are negotiating terms with a supplier of a critical component in your manufacturing process (XYZ Plastics). The chief operating officer (COO) wants you to lead the contract negotiations with XYZ Plastics; however, your planning team has no formal training in negotiation strategy planning. To assist you, the COO provided a recommended template to guide your planning effort. He asked that you review the template and prepare a discussion or narrative for each section that will outline the key components required and guide the planning process.

After reviewing the template, you decide to host a series of training sessions (one per week) designed to coach your team on the negotiation strategy planning process. Your first planning session will serve as an introduction to the planning process and outline the purpose of negotiations and the intended outcomes.

Use the template provided (Negotiation Strategy Planning Template). You will write a discussion of 600–800 words on the following topics:

  • Purpose of the Negotiation (300–400 words)
    • Characteristics of negotiations (why negotiate)
      • Discuss the purpose of negotiations in the supply chain.
      • Discuss at least 2 situations where negotiation is appropriate.
      • Discuss at least 2 common negotiation situations.
  • Desired outcome (300–400 words)
    • Discuss the desired outcomes of your organization.
      • Discuss the importance of identifying the organization’s goals and objectives as a part of negotiation planning.
      • Define and describe the term most desirable outcome (MDO).

[Solved] Sexual Orientation National

 

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC)  is responsible for enforcing federal laws that make it illegal to discriminate against a job applicant or an employee due to protected classes, including race, color, religion, sex (including pregnancy, gender identity, and sexual orientation), national origin, age (40 or older), disability, or genetic information. Each of us likely belongs to at least one of these protected classes/groups, and these laws apply to all types of work situations, including hiring, firing, promotions, harassment, training, wages, and benefits.  

Respond to the following in a minimum of 175 words: 

  • Identify and name 1 of the EEOC-protected classes/groups to which you belong. Give an example of how this protected class/group could be discriminated against in the workplace.  
  • The EEOC provides a framework to safeguard against discriminatory practices in the hiring process. Many companies and organizations seek to hire employees that are a good “fit” for their respective institutions. “Fit” can be a subjective term and could have discriminatory implications. Provide an example of how “fit” could be problematic in hiring, firing, and other types of work situations.  
  • Describe at least 2 types of strategies or trainings that human resources offices can offer employers to facilitate objective/neutral hiring processes.  
  • Discuss at least 1 example from your current or previous workplace that exemplifies quality hiring practices.

You will choose a topic. Your topic should be something that is interesting to you. It should be able to make a connection to the course theme (The Power of Storytelling: Narratives of Past, Present, and Future). You should think about the key words of the theme – stories. You should think about important “stories” of society that can be studied. Perhaps you want to focus on a story of the past (i.e. women’s rights) Or you can focus on a story of the present (i.e. the war between Russia and Ukraine). Or you can focus on the idea of the future (i.e. technology/AI ethical implications). However, whatever you pick, your topic should still be something relevant today. 

 you can get a sense of some of the most pressing issues that are still impacting the world today.

 Perhaps the best way to learn how variables are chosen, operationalized, and measured is by going over specific examples in the literature. Select one of the articles included below.  If a study has more than one phase, select one phase. If a study has more than one hypothesis, select one hypothesis (preferably the main hypothesis). Follow the format below. Titles are in bold and descriptions of what should be included are written beside them.  Please see the Example below this assignment.Answers should be brief and clear. Identify the following in the article you selected. Use your textbook and the example below to guide you. Present the information as follows (with the following headers seen in bold): Study’s APA Reference: Include the APA reference.Background: Write 1-2 sentences providing information on the background literature leading to this study. Make sure to include secondary source citations as needed. This should highlight the existing literature to provide a general overview.  

  • GAP:  Write 1-2 sentences identifying the GAP in the literature that the study addresses. 
  • Impetus: Write 1 sentence explaining the reasoning behind the study. The impetus is the ‘greater’ reason for doing this study: Why is the study important? This is beyond the immediate aim of the study and is concerned with how the information can be used beyond the study.  
  • Purpose: Write the purpose for this study. The purpose is directly related to this study. This should bring together the gap and impetus to the immediate measurable objectives of this research study.
  • Research Question: Write a clear research question for the study. 

Hypothesis: There may be more than one hypothesis. Choose the main hypothesis, if there is one. If not, choose one. The hypothesis you write should include the variables you identify as the IV and DV (or Predictor and Criterion). Independent/Predictor Variable(s):  Insert the IV/PV.  Provide both a general name for each variable (e.g., “time”) and the specific operational definition and type of the variable used by the study (e.g., Before and After the class intervention, Categorical, dichotomous).

  • IV:  
  • IV Operationalized: How is the IV measured or presented? 
  • IV Scale: Identify the scale of measurement for the IV. 

Dependent/Criterion Variable(s):  Insert the DV/CV and the operationalized DV Provide both a general name for each variable (e.g., “anxiety”) and the specific operational definition used by the study (e.g., manifest anxiety scale, continuous, interval).

  • DV:
  • DV Operationalized: How is the DV measured or presented? 
  • DV Scale: Identify the scale of measurement for the DV. 

Participants:  Identify the participants in the study. Type of Research Design:  Quantitative or Qualitative (and why – consider the type of data being collected here)Validity of the Measure: Address the validity of the measure identifying the type of validity addressed and how. Include the various types of validity covered and discussed earlier in the course.  This may not be reported in the research article itself, thus you should evaluate this with your new knowledge base. Reliability of the Measure: Address the reliability of the measure. Include the reliability information reported by the researchers for these measures. Remember to include secondary source citations as needed.Validity of the Study: Address the internal and external validity of the study.Choose from the following articles (click to download below or in the announcements-  the reference is excluded so you will write it) :

  • Using the Walden Library, choose and review a research study dealing with an area of forensic psychology in which you are interested and which uses quantitative analysis.
  • Consider how you might design the study you selected using a qualitative approach (e.g., case study, action research, etc.) and why you would do so.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post by Day 4 a brief description of the research study you selected. Then explain what makes this a quantitative study and how you might design a study on this topic using a qualitative method. Provide a rationale for doing so. Be specific.
