Question 2

 The admissions unit of a psychiatric facility where you work issues a one-page daily report summarizing all the patient admissions, discharges, visits, legal proceedings, and other activities for the preceding 24-hour period. This summary is meant to convey useful information to all staff, and social workers view the summary as helpful for monitoring client status. One of the categories on the form “body count” is a tally of the number of patients/residents in the hospital at midnight. A social worker from a local community mental health agency visits her client in the hospital and hears a reference to this sheet. She is horrified by the use of the “body count”, a phrase you have become accustomed to seeing in the reports.

1. What is the main issue here and why does it matter? Please be as specific as you can.

2. In your role how would you address the issue? How would the acknowledgment of the issue be consistent with your role as a social worker?

3. Describe in three steps how you would address the issue.

[Solved] Would Millennials Remain Loyal

Case studies are an essential learning strategy in business classes because they provide an opportunity for you to critically analyze events that have taken place in real-life businesses. This develops your critical thinking and research skills as you research the competition and industry in which your business resides in order to formulate a recommendation for the challenges faced by the company. 

For this unit, review the Marketing Spotlight: Chase Sapphire case study in Chapter 6 of your textbook. This assignment will be comprised of two parts; one part will ask you to respond to questions, and the other will require you to complete a case analysis. 

Part 1: Evaluate this case and respond to each of the following questions using both theory and practical managerial thinking. 

  • Who are the customers targeted by Chase with the Sapphire card?
  •  What are the key value and profile characteristics of these customers? 
  • What value does the Sapphire card create for customers? 
  • From a customer’s perspective, what are the pros and cons of the Sapphire card compared to other credit cards? 
  • What role did promotional incentives, such as the bonus points, play in creating customer demand? 
  • Would Millennials remain loyal customers once they had taken advantage of the initial offer? 
  • Would the Sapphire card continue to be attractive to Millennials if its promotional incentives were reduced and became similar to other credit card offerings?

 Your Part 1 response must be at least two pages in length. Follow APA Style when creating citations and references for this assignment. Note that you will submit Part 1 and Part 2 in one document.

Part 2: Complete a case analysis of Chase Sapphire. This requires that you conduct research on Chase Sapphire beyond the case study material in the textbook. In the case analysis, you will look at the situational analysis, problem, and alternatives, and you will provide a recommendation. Refer to the instructions below as you construct your analysis. 

Situational Analysis 

  • Discuss the external environment through the compilation of a PEST (political, economic, sociocultural, and technology) analysis. 
  • Discuss the internal and external environment through the compilation of a SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) analysis. 

Problem 

  • Identify at least one organizational problem that Chase Sapphire is currently having or one in which you project it will have in the future. Base this upon your research and critical thinking. 

Alternatives 

  • Compile three or four potential marketing-related solutions to the problem above. Remember that these are potential alternatives; you will not select all of the alternatives to solve the problem. 

Recommendation (Marketing Strategy) 

  • Select one or two of the alternatives above to solve the problem that you identified in this case analysis. Discuss your rationale for choosing these and not the others. Include supporting research that will increase the depth of your analysis.

Part 2 must be at least four pages in length. Follow APA Style when creating citations and references for this assignment. Support Part 2 with at least three sources outside of the textbook. As aforementioned, keep in mind that Part 1 and Part 2 will be submitted in one document.

There are several databases that will help you find company information and competitor or industry information. Below are descriptions of different databases and brief summaries about what they do.

Business Source Ultimate: This is one of our bigger databases. This main screen can be used for industry research. You can search for an industry using the NAIC code in the NAIC/Industry Code search bar or by choosing “Industry Profile” under publication type and typing a broad keyword into the main search box.

[Solved] Minority Groups Could Enhance

1)Considering Texas’s unique blend of individualistic, traditionalistic, and emerging moralistic political subcultures, how might these influence its approach to the challenges of poverty, education, diversity, and resource management? 

Reflect on one policy change you believe could make a significant impact in addressing these issues, taking into account the state’s social history and political climate.

Because we haven’t done this before, I wanted to give you an example with some possible answers. Don’t copy these, but use them to come up with your own unique answer. Here are a few possible responses:

Education: You might argue for increasing investment in education as a means to address poverty, diversity, and resource management. This could include initiatives to reduce disparities in school funding, increase teacher pay to mitigate shortages, and incorporate more comprehensive diversity and environmental education in the curriculum. They might suggest this policy change aligns with the emerging moralistic subculture that favors government intervention for societal improvement.

Healthcare: Another student might focus on healthcare, noting the high uninsured rate in Texas. They could propose expanding Medicaid or implementing state-level healthcare reforms to provide more Texans with access to healthcare services. This, in turn, could alleviate social problems associated with poverty and improve overall quality of life. Such an approach might challenge the individualistic subculture and align more with moralistic tendencies.

Diversity and Immigration: A student might suggest policy changes to better manage the state’s increasing diversity, such as comprehensive immigration reform or enhanced protections for minority populations. They might argue that better integration of immigrants and minority groups could enhance social cohesion and economic productivity. This would challenge the traditionalistic subculture and require a more moralistic and individualistic approach.

Sustainable Resource Management: Considering Texas’s history with oil and gas, a student might propose further diversification of the state’s energy production, with an emphasis on renewable energy sources. This could include incentives for renewable energy companies, stricter environmental regulations for traditional energy sectors, and public education campaigns about sustainability. Such policies could represent a shift towards a more moralistic subculture, prioritizing the long-term health of the state’s environment and population over immediate economic gain.

Question 2) Considering your knowledge of Texas local government, imagine you’re a city mayor or county commissioner. How would you improve civic engagement, ensure efficient service provision, and manage finances responsibly?

Reflect on the interactions of local, state, and federal systems. How would you utilize these relationships and address the challenges and opportunities related to special districts and metropolitan issues?

question 3)Reflecting on the evolution, composition, and influence of political parties in Texas, how do you envision the future of Texas politics? 

As Texas continues to become more diverse in its population, what changes might you anticipate in political ideologies, party affiliations, and electoral trends? 

Consider how you, as active or future voters, might influence these changes and shape the future political landscape of Texas.
