This information will include how to use effective coordination, the best methods of providing direct service to clients, why it is so important to advocate for families and communities as well as agencies. Also what has been the most important lessons I have learned during my career.

Remember the work is vital and valid, which is often inspirational enough. Careers in this field are, ideal because the job requirements revolve around the development of personal and professional relationships with clients, whether children, adults, or elderly. However, working in human services does provide specialize training through schooling or on-the-job- to help the professional.

...will build upon the previous section. The author will attempt to define issues that effect business, highlight the forces involved in the problem, describe the organizational and environmental obstacles, and finally apply critical thinking in the decision-making process. Defining the Issues The Dillard's organization is looking to establish a new manufacturing plant on the island of Kava, in the South Pacific. The Dillard’s organization hopes that this move will be beneficial to both Kava and the Dillard’s shareholders. This decision to branch out to Kava will require careful planning and consideration of all the present issues. Issues present such as: natural disasters, health risks, and internal and external forces, create a challenge for Dillard’s Incorporated. Dillard’s desperately needs to develop a plan to have a greater presence on Kava. Forces and Obstacles Involved There are several internal and external forces involved in the decision to set up a manufacturing plant in Kava. External forces for example, environmental obstacles, present in the South Pacific include: tornadoes, hurricanes and typhoons, floods, fires, earthquakes, petroleum spills, volcanic eruptions, and the spread of disease. Internal forces such as ethical issues, human resources, and the organizational process will be considered as well. Many ethical issues within a global organization can develop such as conflicts between the...

...Decision Making MGT 350 Problem Formulation and Identification Problem formulation and identification is an important part of any organization due to the limitless amount of problems that can transpire. By having a proper plan of action to help identify problems, an organization can quickly implement the needed procedures to alleviate it whether it is personnel or resources. The organization I represent, Shannon Missionary Baptist Church, is linked to another other organization that can have problems to arise at any given time and problem formulation and identification methods are as crucial in church as with any other organization. We have formulated a method of problem identification internally and try and use our handbook, the Bible, to the letter. Our handbook offers unswerving directions on how every member of the organization is to carry out his or her services, the organizations purpose and goals, the rules and regulations, and also the behavior of the organization and its members. When any member of the organization notices a problem or issue, it is his or her responsibility to report that problem to other members so that a meeting can be held to handle it swiftly. Our organization handles all problems openly, with all its members, allowing each individual to express their concerns about the problem and then a vote is made. The decision of what action to take to deal with the problem is decided by the majority vote. Compare and Contrast of Decision Making ...

There could amendments made to identify “safe supporting roles” in which to use willing civilian bystanders providing extra manpower and releasing pressure in the response ( Dynes 1994, Drabek 1986). Emergency planning in the UK: a unique perspective. Part A) Nature of Emergencies Joshua ST.Lyon 1370 Words The 1953 floods are an early example of a response under the Civil Defence Act (1948). The response for this event was not effectively backed by the Civil Defence Act (1948) which did not provide many statutory responsibilities. The local authorities could only carry out normal peacetime activities, not those associated with a state of emergency (Grieve 1959). The response from the services for this event was chaotic as work carried out was not done with thought as to whose function it was. The agencies were overwhelmed by the scale of the incident and the remoteness of the locations cut off by flooding (Delderfield and Carnegie 1969, Grieve 1959). The nature of this incident and similar ones of the day was very much one of miscommunication or lack thereof, an underprepared and equipped set of emergency services and a reliance...

The project was created to address the importance of Information Security Management and compliance for businesses in the financial sector. ABC Loans are a small independently owned payday loan company. The client was concerned about the recent penetration of local business networks and wanted me to perform an assessment on his network and determine the vulnerable areas of his networks and the recommendations for making it more secure and GLBA compliant; now that the assessment is completed the client is aware of the vulnerabilities and the areas where they are not meeting GLBA requirements. My capstone will focus on the steps that will assure compliance for (ABC Loans).

...RUNNING HEAD: DECISION-MAKING January 11, 2009 Problem Formulation and Identification Every organization uses its own decision-making style. Some organizations prefer to use a rational style, which centers on facts and figures, and logical and scientific approaches to their problems. Other companies use an intuitive style, which focuses on emotional aspects of problems and gut feelings. Recently, a group of business students observed how decisions are typically made at their own places of employment. Kori at Prescription Solutions, Jacob at Combined Arms Training Center, Isela at Housing Authority of the City of El Paso, and Micah at Brown-Forman where each examined the strategy most often employed at their organizations. It was found that while each has its own particular style, there were many similarities. These working students also found that each style uses its own set of strengths and weaknesses, and explored how a problem can be described to stakeholders in a manner that is sensitive to their perspectives with various style approaches. Rational Decision-Making Rational decision-making is “a deliberate and logical approach” (Robbins, 2004, p. 21). When faced with a decision, a rational thinker will “emphasize facts, details, and rational cause-effect logic” (Robbins, 2004, p. 21). When a decision must be made, Prescription Solutions’ upper management executives consider three logical business factors: customer satisfaction...
