...Classroom and Behavior Management Plan Dr. Renee Murley Learning in the Urban Environment ICL 7709 July 31, 2009 Rules and Procedures On the first day of class, the students and I will have a conversation about my expectations and the students’ expectations for the classroom. From these expectations, together, we will create a set of guidelines for conduct in the classroom. We will also discuss common occurrences in the classroom such as late arrival, preparation for class, etc., and how they should be handled. From this class forum, we will derive the rules and procedures that will govern our classroom. Whereas, not all rules and procedures will be negotiable, we will discuss the meaning, rationality, and fairness of each rule, and also how these rules fit into the framework of the school’s guidelines. This is done with the idea in mind that if students have a part in creating the classroom rules and procedures that they will be more apt to follow them. These rules will be posted permanently in the classroom, on the teacher’s website, and also printed in written form so that the information may be given to the students, parents, and administrators. General guidelines for behaviors will be as follows: 1) Be respectful of the thoughts, feelings, personal space, and property of others and self. 2) Be on time and prepared for class. 3) Be in your desk and prepared to work when the bell rings. 4) Do ask permission before speaking or getting out of your...

...M2: Disaster Management Plan Karen V. Jenkins ATSU-SHM In creating a disaster management plan there are many factors that need to be incorporated in the plan. The plan should consist of a series of documents, tasks, teams, training, exercises, and drills according to the mission statement. With all these things in mind as a health care planner I would prepare a set of plans for different potential disasters. I would group disasters into bioterrorism, infectious disease, food and drug contamination, and financial disaster to name a few categories. From these categories I would start to make plans. In getting started to begin the planning process it is important to establish a policy and understand the organization structure. In doing this an emergency preparedness policy statement must be written as well as a defined organizational structure with a clearly defined chain of command established. These steps will make it easier in keeping track of what needs to be achieved and in assessing who has what responsibilities. Some of these documents will overlap in the collaboration of different organizations. Yet, I feel that the difference will be in who will have the controlling factor depending upon the disaster response in the chain of command. This assessment will take place in the planning process by identifying hazards, risks, and assets of the plan. This allows for the most competent health professionals to take control if a set of disasters occur. Competency...

They have asked a small number of workers to complete self-assessments in relation to their job satisfaction. These self-assessments will permit management to find out the personalities of the employees and find out how these characteristics have an effect on Riordan Manufacturing. Self-assessments evaluated job satisfaction, passion, how their feelings influence them, and how they make choices. After a careful examination of the self-assessments, further suggestions will be on hand to support Riordan Manufacturing expand with a better viewpoint on the organization and enthusiasm of their staff. The participants in the Riordan manufacturing self-assessments are Bessie Boyd, Brenda Mitchell, and Juan Hernandez. The following self-assessments were administered to the employees: How Satisfied Am I with My Job?, Am I engaged?, How are you feeling right now?, What’s my affect intensity?, What’s my emotional intelligence score?, Am I a deliberate decision maker?

...Management Plan Deanne Holland May 30, 2015 MGT/311 Carla Kuhlman There are very many different levels of managing a team of people. When managing these people it is very important to remember that everyone has different personalities and very different ways of viewing ideas. With this being said, as a part of the management team, it is very important to learn the very complex differences in the team that someone has chosen. In this summary there are three very different people that were surveyed and each one of them has something different that they have to offer to a team. One of the individuals in this survey has a very high motivation to learn and give direction, while the other two are very caring to the needs to the others in their group and the customers that they serve. In any case each offers a different style and a very unique perspective to the team. Motivation is the key to this team and allowing them to serve the needs of the team and to themselves. If for any reasons that one part of the team feels like they are not doing their part of given the credit that may be so deserved then the team may not deliver to their full potential. So as the manager of this team it very important to try to figure out who fits where and where their greatest strengths are. Once this task has been achieved then your team can feel secure in knowing that they are going to fulfill the needs of the company and their own personal needs for growth as an individual. Managers not...

...There are five major types of strategies that management could use to resolve conflicts in the work area. The five strategies are accommodating, compromising, collaborative, avoiding, and competing. Depending on the urgency and the type of conflict in the workplace, will decide what conflict strategy would be used to resolve the conflict at hand. Recognizing the conflict and the conflict management strategies strengths and weaknesses will assist management in developing a conflict management plan to solve the conflict between David and James. Each of the five management strategies has its own strengths and weaknesses that management needs to be aware of in order to settle a conflict. The accommodating strategy is low in assertiveness and high in cooperation. This strategy puts the others needs or interest before his or her own just to maintain a harmonious relationship. In certain conflicts this could be fine because it allows the other party to feel like they have won the conflict, which could lead to a faster resolution. The problem with the accommodating strategy is the outcome is of low importance. The compromising strategy is moderate assertiveness and moderate cooperation. Using the compromising strategy there is no clear winner or loser. The compromising strategy is defined as “giving up more than you want”. This strategy is used as a temporary solution to the conflict not a permanent one, which could create a bigger problem later. The compromising strategy...

...Surname: Presented to Institution Name, Location Date Management plan Introduction The management of wetlands such as that of Milperra Bushland involves all the activities that can be conducted within and without the wetland regions. These activities can either be natural or manmade depending on the constrains and limitations that the management team is facing. The main aim of all these activities is to protect, manipulate, restore and provide for the functions and values the wetland areas. Management of wetland areas can be done through making sure that all the constrains and limitations hindering the achievement of the management team are technically dealt with. A range of constrains and limitations of managing Milperra Bushland as one of the sensitive wetlands within Australia include: Financial limitation This is experienced not only by the managing team of Milperra Bushland but almost all wetland in Australia have this problem. Financial limitation can be shown by the median funding level that has been reported by about thirty three rehabilitation projects in Australia. This amounted to about $ 30, 000 every year. This is technically this cannot support a full time employed skilled personnel (Helmsman, 1991). Time limitations Time limitations have been depicted by an assessment of about thirty rehabilitations projects.

With the assessments I have received back from the employee’s, I need to create an Employee Portfolio for each of the employees to help guide in developing ways to best manage them. How might these three employees characteristics affect the performance of the organization and are there any recommendations for additional assessments[?] All in all I believe these three employees’ characteristics have a positive effect on the performance of the organization and are self-motivated, self-actualized employee, and the employee who needs close supervision is when management can provide an environment in which the employee’s enjoy what they do and feel like they have a purpose and have pride in their work. One thing I did notice though is that management does need to help the workers to develop skills for better work performance as well as to be able to advance in the company. Also management needs to give employee's a clear sense of direction of what their job scope is and have a clear picture of what work needs to been done. Management needs to take...

...Introduction In this paper Team A is responsible for developing teams for Riordan Manufacturing’s newly designed CardiCare Valve heart valves. The location of these teams is in Pontiac, Michigan, which produces plastic parts for the organization. Team A will develop a Team Strategy Plan of which we will identify several strategies in building viable teams, identify challenges or barriers that may occur, determine the best approach, and measure the teams efficiency. While developing these teams, Team A will create a Conflict Management Plan of which we will analyze the teams strengths and weaknesses, implementation of different conflict management strategies, select the best approach, identify potential challenges, and consider alternate strategies that will foster an efficient team. The Various Strategies Available to Build Teams Riordan Manufacturing is striving to create the perfect teams of employees to generate the best possible production of the newly designed CardiCare Valve heart valves. Creating those perfect teams requires much planning and organization. An important thing that Riordan needs to think about when trying to construct their teams is the number of members of each of the team. Generally speaking, the most effective teams have five to nine members (Robbins & Judge, 2011). When teams are larger, coordination and communication amongst its members may be an issue making it harder to get work done. Another thing for Riordan to consider when building...
