Reflecting in health care is important as it is a key skill which enables you to manage the personal and also professional impact for you patients and wellbeing needs on a daily basis to inform learning from practice.

...Case Study Analysis: AccuForm: Ethical Leadership and its Challenges in the Era of Globalization Nicolle R. Waddy AMBA 660 Managing Global Business Professor Dr. Elena Zavialova January 22, 2012 Introduction The ethical environment of a company’s leadership heavily impacts business decisions, and thus impacts the public’s image of the company. These decisions and the process by which they are made will affect the world’s view of the company, and it is important for company’s to understand the significance of ethical decision-making particularly in international business relations on the company’s reputation. AccuForm was a joint venture company, organized by the joining of CreaseFree, a Hong Kong OEM manufacturer of wrinkle-free clothing, and DynaCoat, a German coating’s producer. The two companies sought to develop high-tech coatings for the use on wrinkle-free clothing and fabrics for distribution throughout Asia. Because the two companies operated in different countries, they began the venture with obvious differences in corporate cultures. Throughout this analysis I will discuss the major issues raised by this joint venture. The major issues came about through the leadership and decisions made by that leadership. The major issues in the AccuForm joint venture were: (1) A lack of a joint ethical environment at AccuForm from the combining cultures of DynaCoat and CreaseFree; (2) The Laissez-Faire Management Style of Raymond Kim; and (3) lack of understanding...

...to soul searching as well as becoming closer with our lord and savior. By reviewing the meta-narrative of the bible I have been able to more closely and attentively delve into the would of Christianity. This has propelled my thought process as to better analyze each passage and thus creating a better understanding what what was being proclaimed in the biblical scriptures. Before starting this class I would read the scriptures and have a vague understanding of the message hidden in the words. After reviewing all of the video lectures and hearing what the professor has had to say about the meanings of each passage, I have been able to redirect my though process to that of biblical understanding. Recalling week one of our biblical passage analysis, after reading the given passage I received and comprehended very little information on the passage. I began to speak with family, friends and others of the christian religion, and after consulting with thhem I was better able to understand what the passage was calling for. I had come to the understanding that God needs us to be able to comprehend what he has left for us and to put his words into action and how all of the passages have a meaning and relation back to our life in modern society. But, I can...

...C100 Foundations MAJ LeAngela Jones C112 Stage Setter Essay Thomas Barnett The Pentagon War:” It explains why we’re going to War and why we’ll Keep Going to War” CGSC 1. Critique the Author’s thesis: Thomas Barnett has briefed many people on The Pentagon’s New Map: It explains why we’re going to war and why we’ll keep going to war” as part of the Non-Integrating Gap. The Pentagon's New Map was intended to provide direction for the Pentagon in search of a strategy following the 1927 Post War and how globalization has affected this world. Is Thomas Barnett way of thinking about war the way most Americans think about war? I agree with the majority of Barnett’s article on “The Pentagon New Map”. He talks about how the threat of the disconnectedness of the Gap will reduce the level of disconnectedness and shrink the Gap. Protecting American citizens at home and abroad is one of the toughest tasks the President and Congressional leaders assume after they assume the oath of office. Disconnectedness can be seen among the citizens of the United States. Some of the same reasons identified by Barnett as causal factors are also applicable on a lesser scale. Take a look at the disadvantage people living in the United States; some in projects and others in trailer parks. Many of them are somewhat educated and want success; however, they take the wrong course of action to be successful. When they witness the success of others and the personal property owned by successful people...

Literature Review This literature review will serve to be a brief overview of juvenile diversion programs and tactics. It will also serve to examine the history of juvenile diversion programs as well as analyze previous studies for effectiveness of juvenile diversion programs.

The first study compared the success/failures of different diversion techniques. The second study compared diversion programs over the State of Nebraska. A. Juvenile Diversion Overview Juvenile diversion is an intervention method with programs aimed at averting youth away from the criminal justice system (Bynum, 1996). Diversion programs also aim to still hold juveniles accountable for their behavior (Mackin et al, 2010). There are...

...theft, violence, and general delinquency are becoming top tier phenomenon’s, as general delinquency mode of operation for this adolescent generation. As we make an analysis of this ordeal as a whole, one would find that there are many factors that can be said to be the common denominator in its contribution to so many misguided children and young adults. We are moving out an age where child and parental communication is being hindered as the general family structures of todays home are growing into a state of total degeneracy. Many children and teens often grow up in single parent homes and are exposed to inconsistencies in discipline, physical, verbal and substance substance abuse only to go to a school to interact with a social group that thrives in these themes in a more concentrated manner. Interestingly enough, the effect of these causes tends to end in outcomes that can’t be redeemed lightly from as many kids, undergo long-term sentences in juvenile detention. Other obstacles such as teens and young adults being killed in violence are tried as adults, thus losing their lives and chances for redemption. Fortunately there has been a new procedure being implemented as many at risk kids are being put into juvenile detention center for a short term, as an attempt to scare them straight and apply correct disciplinary acts in order for those misguided young men and woman to learn morals and values...

...EHR/CPOE Implementation Executive Summary This thesis follows the implementation of Computerized Patient Order Entry/Electronic Health Record (CPOE/EHR) system implemented by Partners Healthcare System (PHS) during 2002-2003 for all its constituent practitioners. It looks at the problems faced during implementation of the system and identifies new potential problems that the system may encounter. Particularly in consideration is the effort it takes to convince healthcare professionals to switch to CPOE/EHR, the cost of installing the system, the potential of automating redundancies in the system and the potential of healthcare professionals getting skewed data out of the system suggestions. It looks at the management challenges faced by the administration when bringing about CPOE/EHR to PHS and divulges in some techniques that were used for tackling these issues. It defines ways in which the system is being used to improve patient healthcare and save millions of dollars for the government, healthcare facilities and patients alike. This thesis also finds ways to combat the potential problems that may arise later and the system and looks at related government policies and statutes which apply to the implementation. Finally some metrics of success are discussed their effectiveness in driving a result. Problem Definition CPOE/EHR Implementation can face a host of problems that can hinder the process flow and the acceptability of the system by the people involved. The initial...
