[Solved] Teaching Effective Supervisor Skills

[Solved] Teaching Effective Supervisor Skills

Teaching Effective Supervisor Skills Powerpoint 8-10 slides plus title, intro, and reference. 

Instructions: This project requires you to develop a PowerPoint slide presentation for use as a training tool with brand-new supervisors! You are in charge of presenting them with information on transitioning from a worker to a supervisor. There is great satisfaction in taking a brand new employee, helping them to develop their Management, Coaching, and Leadership skills, and then watching them excel! With this in mind, your presentation should have a title, overview, and body of slides for the audience. You should focus most of your presentation (i.e., 8-10 slides) on what challenges a new supervisor may face, what makes a good supervisor (or a bad one), and how to transition to becoming a supervisor. Factors to consider in all forms of communication–Who is your audience? What is your message? Are you trying to persuade? Inform?

Here are some guidelines: You are the Day Shift Supervisor and will brief a small group of newly-promoted team leads with little or no past leadership experience. They have all worked up through the ranks at the Always Smiling Toothbrush manufacturing facility. Your audience ages are anywhere from 25-55 years of age, with various business backgrounds, some with military experience, and some that have been in trouble before but now want to move up in the company. Many of them have good friends who are still in lower positions and will struggle to adjust.

Submission Instructions: IMPORTANT! Save and submit your work as a PowerPoint Presentation with speaker notes

The body of your presentation should include at least 8-10 presentation slides, a title slide, introduction slide(s), and references at the end of your presentation for no more than 15 slides. PowerPoint presentations longer than 15 slides will not be read after the 15th slide. As such, please ensure that all assignment questions are answered within the first 15 slides, as your grade will be based on the first 15 slides received.

Your grade will be based on your ability to follow assignment instructions, research conducted, the effectiveness of the training proposed, critical thinking and analysis, and APA 7th edition format.Please support your ideas, arguments, and opinions with independent research, include at least three (3) supporting references or sources, include a reference section (i.e., 1-2 slides), and cite all sources properly in the text of each slide, per the 7th edition of the APA manual.

APA style assigment

Thus far, you have been asked to provide a link for any source used in your written assignments as a way of attributing credit to the source.  Going forward, you will need to attribute credit to your sources by including in-text citations and references in accordance with APA-tyle. This assignment will be good practice for building these valuable skills! This assignment consists of two parts – a Part A and a Part B.

 PART A: APA-STYLE IN-TEXT CITATION PLACEMENT To prepare for this portion of the assignment, read pages 269-270 from the 7th edition of the APA Manual, which are located under Readings and Resources. These two pages contain information about the placement of APA-style in-text citations, particularly in summarized or paraphrased work.  Based on this reading, you will review three versions of the same paragraph and select which paragraph contains the correct placement of APA-style in-text citations

.PART B: APA-STYLE REFERENCING Instructions: For every source you cite within an assignment, you must include an accompanying reference for it at the end of your assignment. For this activity, you will review how to write an APA-style reference for three different types of sources – a textbook, a peer-reviewed journal article, and a website. Then, you will be given references for actual sources and you will need to determine which references are written in APA-style. Finally, you will have the opportunity to write APA-style references for a textbook, a peer-reviewed journal article, and a website yourself.

Instructions

This week, you will submit the second project, the Desktop Migration Proposal. Using the requirements analysis your manager provided and the Internet research you conducted, submit your recommendation to the assignment folder. As you are writing your recommendation, ensure your analysis and recommendations align with your manager’s priorities and concerns.

You should carefully document any assumptions made (e.g., how you analyzed the requirement for upgrading monitors, peripherals devices, etc.).

Refer to the HFA Desktop Migration: Corporate PC Refresh Documentation for the company’s needs (requirements). Your justification should clearly indicate how you bridge the gap between the existing desktop specifications and the new machines you recommend.

How Will My Work Be Evaluated?

For this assignment, you are asked by your manager to research the replacement of 50 aging desktop machines with new laptops. Review the business needs from your manager carefully so that you fully appreciate the requirements you must address in selecting the new laptops.

For example, what is significant about the need for “multiple external monitors”? Ask yourself what it takes to connect a laptop to external monitors. What ports are included on your recommended laptop? What kind of cables are required? Can those ports/cables be used with the external monitors? Does the laptop have sufficient graphics capabilities to drive external displays and if so, how many and at what resolution? Follow this same process for all the business needs.

By documenting your choices and the overall recommendation in an effective background report, you are showing how you use your technical knowledge to convey your ideas to others in a professional setting. Your ability to express your findings using the right mix of technical detail in a business context is an important workplace skill.

The following evaluation criteria aligned to the competencies will be used to grade your assignment:

1.1.3: Present ideas in a clear, logical order appropriate to the task.

1.2.3: Explain specialized terms or concepts to facilitate audience comprehension.

1.4.3: Write concise and logical sentences in standard academic English that clarify relationships among concepts and ideas.

2.1.2: Describe the context surrounding the issue or problem.

2.3.3: Explain inferences and deductions that follow logically from the evidence provided.

10.1.3: Define the specifications of required technologies.

13.1.1: Create documentation appropriate to the stakeholder.

[Solved] Would Tackle Hudson Fisher

 Hide Assignment InformationInstructions

For this project, you will apply the CompTIA 6-Step Troubleshooting Process to explain how you would tackle Hudson Fisher Associates Help Desk Tickets. There are three groups of tickets, Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3. You will pick two tickets from each group.

As you prepare to analyze and hopefully solve these typical IT help desk tickets, keep in mind that for this course, it is more about the process and less about finding the “correct” answer. You may not always find an exact answer from the information given. The problems are structured to approximate what you will find in the workplace. Use a logical and repeatable process (e.g., the CompTIA 6-Step Troubleshooting Process) and eliminate the improbable as you work your way through each scenario.

CompTIA 6-Step Troubleshooting Process:

  1. Identify the problem.
  2. Establish a theory of probable cause.
  3. Evaluate the theory to determine the actual cause.
  4. Establish a plan of action to resolve the problem and implement the solution.
  5. Verify full system functionality and if applicable implement preventative measures.
  6. Document findings, actions, and outcomes.

How Will My Work Be Evaluated?

As you progress in your information technology and cybersecurity career, you may find yourself making presentations to customers, client audiences, and management. For this assignment, you should articulate your findings from the six support cases.

But the challenge you face is in expressing a technical solution to a nontechnical audience. Avoid jargon and acronyms. Find a way to relay your solution (and challenges) in language that your audience will find easily relatable.

Communicating in this manner will not always be easy. You may struggle to find the right analogy or metaphor. But if you can master the skill of summarizing your results and recommendations to management in an effective presentation, you will demonstrate how you use your technical knowledge to convey your ideas to others in a professional setting. You will also earn the respect and trust of your peers, your supervisor, and upper management as an effective communicator. You will be viewed as an employee ready for advancement.

The following evaluation criteria aligned to the competencies will be used to grade your assignment:

  • 1.1.1: Articulate the main idea and purpose of a communication.
  • 1.1.3: Present ideas in a clear, logical order appropriate to the task.
  • 1.3.3: Integrate appropriate credible sources to illustrate and validate ideas.
  • 2.1.1: Identify the issue or problem under consideration.
  • 2.3.1: State conclusions or solutions clearly and precisely.
  • 12.7.2: Explain the process of analyzing IT incidents.
  • 13.1.1: Create documentation appropriate to the stakeholder.

Your deliverable for the project is an annotated PowerPoint Presentation covering the following:

  • List of the six tickets you selected (two each from Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3)
  • One to two slides for each ticket, in which you:
    • State the problem.
    • Describe the steps taken to troubleshoot/analyze the problem.
    • Propose a brief resolution.
  • One summary slide: What did you find challenging or interesting about one or two of the support cases (opinion-based)?
  • One reference slide (two to six IEEE references). Include references for materials you consulted in TestOut or on the internet.

[Solved] Reply 1 Stakeholder Engagement

[Solved] Reply 1 Stakeholder Engagement

 What is critical chain scheduling, and how is it different from critical pathway analysis? Give two examples of its use in healthcare.

reply 1

 

Stakeholder engagement enables businesses to proactively take into account the requirements and preferences of all parties with an interest in them. This helps build relationships, confidence, and buy-in for your business’s most important activities. Stakeholder involvement, when done properly, can reduce possible risks and conflicts with stakeholder groups, including ambiguity, dissatisfaction, misalignment, disengagement, and resistance to change. Stakeholder involvement in strategic planning is essential. Your stakeholders must comprehend your mission, goals, and strategy in order for them to support you. Additionally, it’s crucial that your organization’s KEY stakeholders are on board with and committed to its strategic direction in order for them to act as champions and supporters of your purpose and vision.  

Don’t worry if you haven’t yet had the pleasure of working with challenging stakeholders. Soon, you will. As a result, you must be prepared with techniques for handling them cordially so that you may keep working on the project despite any difficulties. It’s far simpler to say than to do to design a strategy for project stakeholder management. Stakeholder management can be difficult, especially if they act in ways that compromise the common goal. Taking note of stakeholders’ expectations and project objectives is one of the most important components of managing stakeholders.  

Knowing what to say to a client who is dissatisfied with the project status report can be very challenging. Yes, constructive criticism is always beneficial, and occasionally, you could even gain from being boldly honest. However, some participants might be unpleasant and unhelpful without good reason. As a result, there may be delays and poor quality with your project. Your best option in this situation is to strive for total campaign transparency, which can help increase stakeholder confidence in the initiative.  

Finding out who your stakeholders are and what drives them is the first step. Anyone who is impacted by your work, has control over it or an interest in its success is a stakeholder. If you don’t like what you hear, don’t cut off communication. Put yourself in the position of challenging stakeholders to better comprehend their motivations and objectives. Try to understand where they are coming from. Plan a meeting with each of the challenging stakeholders. They feel less pressure and more at ease while meeting alone, away from other stakeholders. Conversations become more lucid and relaxed as a result.

Critical chain scheduling or CCS, is a project management technique that focuses on the identification of the longest chain of dependent tasks and resources, known as the critical chain, in a project schedule. It involves the allocation of buffers or additional time to critical tasks to mitigate delays caused by uncertainty and resource constraints. On the other hand, critical pathway analysis or CPA, is a project management tool that identifies the shortest sequence of tasks needed to complete a project, taking into account dependencies and resource availability. CPA focuses on the identification of the critical path and critical activities that must be completed on time to avoid project delays.

The main difference between critical chain scheduling and critical pathway analysis is that critical chain scheduling accounts for uncertainties and resource constraints by introducing buffers, whereas critical pathway analysis focuses on the shortest path without considering uncertainties and resource constraints. Additionally, CCS can be used to manage projects that have uncertain durations, whereas CPA is used for projects with known durations.

A study by Attarzadeh and Zarei (2016) applied critical chain scheduling to the development of a chemotherapy unit in a hospital. Attarzadeh and Zarei identified the critical chain of tasks involved in the project and analyzed the resource requirements for each task. By optimizing the use of resources and reducing the impact of uncertainties, the project was completed ahead of schedule and within the allocated budget. In another study, Zand and Sajjadi (2017) used critical chain scheduling to optimize the scheduling of surgeries in a hospital. The authors identified the critical chain of tasks involved in the surgical process and used simulation modeling to identify the optimal scheduling strategy. The results showed that the critical chain scheduling approach led to a significant reduction in patient waiting times and improved the overall efficiency of the surgical process.

Peer 1, Denisse: 

Human trafficking affects millions of people globally and violates human rights. The main risk factors are poverty, illiteracy, racism, mental illness, and migration. These and other factors put people at risk of being trafficked. The difficulty of accessing essential services such as health, education, and others marginalizes this population, and they become easy victims of traffickers. (Chisolm-Straker & Stoklosa, 2017) . People with little education can quickly become victims of trafficking, as they have little awareness of their rights and little access to legal support services.

Human trafficking enticers take advantage of this to lure their victims with the promise of opportunities for financial freedom. When faced with groups marginalized by racism, illiteracy, poverty, mental illness, and others, recruiters find their targets. Mental illness and addiction put people at high risk of human trafficking because they need to satisfy their addiction, especially those with substance use disorders (Toney-Butler et al., 2023) About poverty, it is perceived that individuals with financial difficulties may be pressured to look for other ways of survival, and end up being more vulnerable to trafficking, as they have fewer resources and opportunities. Common cases seen in the United States occur due to migration. The migrants are at higher risk of being victims of human trafficking due to their vulnerability, lack of legal status, and restricted access to essential support services. Women and girls are enticed into sexual exploitation, while men and boys are sent to forced labor, analogous to slave labor. (Chisolm-Straker & Stoklosa, 2017). These people face a reality different from the one promised by the recruiters, as they are in a different country, do not speak the local language, and do not have their documents or money. Therefore, they become incapable of changing the situation in which they find themselves.

Governments should pay close attention to this matter and try to curb it by creating anonymous channels for receiving complaints, inspecting suspicious companies, and searching for information on social networks and the platforms of websites used by recruiters with job proposals and financial gains not compatible. In addition, media coverage of this issue can raise awareness, strengthen legal protections, address the causes of trafficking, and create partnerships to help prevent or reduce human trafficking.

Peer 2, Dameiro:

The general well-being and health of persons who are trafficked are gravely threatened by the global public health epidemic of human trafficking. Few studies assess the trust of healthcare professionals in their capacity to identify, assist, and refer persons who are being trafficked. Migration is one of the main risk factors. Those who are migrants are more likely to become victims of human trafficking due to their weakness, lack of legal status, and limited access to basic amenities (Dean, 2020). Men and boys are more likely to be utilized as forced labor in human trafficking, making them more susceptible to sexual exploitation than women and girls.  People with limited education might be more prone to being victims of trafficking because they are less aware of their legal rights and have less access to assistance from the legal system and other support systems. Poverty is a huge additional risk factor for human trafficking. Due to their limited access to resources and opportunity, the poor may be more susceptible to human trafficking. Financially struggling people could feel under pressure to look for employment or other chances that could exploit them. Due to discrimination and restricted access to necessary services like medical care, schooling, and other necessities, marginalized populations are more susceptible to human trafficking.

Critical actions must be implemented in order to stop or lessen human trafficking. Awareness-building and education are two crucial ways. More people should be made aware of the risks and effects of human trafficking, and groups and individuals should get education and training on how to spot and stop it. People can learn about the indicators of trafficking and the proper reporting procedures as part of this. Another tactic to reduce human trafficking is to provide social and economic support. Giving people access to chances for training, employment, and schooling may decrease their susceptibility to trafficking by boosting their level of financial independence. People who are vulnerable to trafficking can become more resilient and less vulnerable by developing solid social networks and offering support.  I conclude that globally, there are millions of victims of human trafficking, and it gravely breaches human rights (Mackenzie, 2020). Three major risk factors that increase a person’s chance of being trafficked are poverty, illiteracy, and migration. Primary actions that can aid in preventing or reducing human trafficking include raising awareness, enhancing legal safeguards, offering support, addressing root causes, and forming partnerships. Addressing this issue and defending the rights of individuals impacted by trafficking require cooperation.

 Read the following scenario.

You are a nurse on 5 West who has concerns about visiting hours in the Critical Care Unit. The unit currently has a visiting-hours policy that allows patients to rest and the staff to provide care in an environment that protects patient privacy and modesty. However, many nurses now feel that family presence improves patient outcomes. You and other nurses on your unit have noted that vital signs are improved and patients are more responsive when family is present. You are considering whether to use a quantitative or qualitative study to research this topic.

Step 2: Consider the following questions:

  • What is the purpose of hypotheses and research questions?
  • Why is it important to develop workable hypotheses and research questions in conducting research?
  • What type of research—qualitative or quantitative—would be most conducive to the scenario in Step 1? Why?
  • Which would be more appropriate given the scenario in Step 1: the development of a hypothesis or a research question or both? Why?
