...As a nurse one runs into some very saddening/ maddening situations, some that cause not only the individual nurse, but the entire nursing staff to be thrown into conflict with their beliefs of non-maleficense and a patient’s right to autonomy. I always strive to never cause any harm to a patient and treat them kindly despite behaviors that could lead one to not want to act or treat someone is such a manner. Additionally I believe an individual should also have the right and be supported in making decisions about their healthcare, but when the decision is in effect, taken away from them, who has that right? When the nurse and stand staff struggle with the decision that is being made, it complicates the picture, leads to a lot of frustration and nurses feel helpless Several years ago there was an incident of a pt that received a kidney transplant, but during the immediate post operative course the patient, suffered a respiratory arrest, was anoxic for a period of time leaving the pt with anoxic brain damage. This was an individual who, prior to surgery, was a fully functional person. After time in the ICU the patient was able to be on the nursing floor; trached, unable to swallow, g-tube, very limited ability to walk, or transfer to a chair w maximal assistance of typically 2 staff members. The individual also tended, what seemed to be intentional, to try and injure nursing staff, by pinching, kicking and biting.. I was often assigned to this pt, and on several occasions...

...INTRODUCTION For an individual to better understand a particular society there is the need to first of all understand the term sense of belonging. The concept of sense of belonging may be define as the perception of similarity to others, an acknowledged interdependence with others, a willingness to maintain this interdependence by giving to or doing for others what one expects from them, and the feeling that one is part of a larger dependable and stable structure Belonging is closely linked to the concepts of identity, social groups, and communities. Because diverse experiences, backgrounds, cultures, heritages, and histories lead to unique individual experiences of belonging (or not belonging) in society, one person’s sense of belonging to a place or a people cannot readily be defined by others. Belonging to groups is the starting point of learning about roles and responsibilities and reflects choosing to identify with other members of society. Identity refers to who people feel that they are as individuals (“who I am”) and as members of groups (“who we are”). It also includes their identities in the eyes of others (for example, as they are commonly represented in the media McMillan & Chavis (1986) define sense of community as "a feeling that members have of belonging, a feeling that members matter to one another and to the group, and a shared faith that members' needs will be met through their commitment to be together. The following are how sense of belonging helps...

...Kait Kurtz Management 251 Effective Followers There are many types of followers just as there are many types of leaders. A person’s behavior and personality can help to determine which category they most appropriately fall into. What we are going to focus on is followers and in particular is effective followers. How does an effective follower work and what does is it that drives them? There are five main characteristics that we are going to focus on for an effective follower and they are: dedication, independent thinker, active in the organization, self-management, and willing to take risks. Dedication is defined as the quality of being dedicated to a task or purpose, but it can also be interchanged with loyalty. An effective follower is someone who a colleague or manager can count on because they know that they will give it one hundred percent when it comes to completing a task. They tend to really believe in what they are doing and that is where the sense of dedication comes from. For example a dedicated employee would be willing to put in the long hours and extra time that it would take to complete a project. Their boss trusts that the work will not be sloppy or incomplete because their loyalty is outstanding. Dedication is very important to being an effective follower. A second important quality is being an independent thinker. In reference to the project example mentioned above an effective follower would be the person who would think outside the box for a solution...

...has two dimensions, each a measure of sociability. Group The group dimension describes how strongly people are bonded together. At one end there are distinct and separated individuals, perhaps with common reason to be together though with less of a sense of unity and connection. At the other end, people have a connected sense of identity, relating more deeply and personally to one another. They spend more time together and have stable relationships. When people group together, then laws are more easily defined and policed. For society to survive when bonds are weaker and central control is less possible, individuals must necessarily display self-restraint. In management, low group does not manage resources, whilst high group does. Grid The grid dimension describes how different people are in the group and how they take on different roles. At one end of this spectrum people are relatively homogeneous in their abilities, work and activity and can easily interchange roles. This makes them less dependent on one another. At the other end, there are distinct roles and positions within the group with specialization and different accountability. There are also different degrees of entitlement, depending on position and there may well be a different balance of exchange between and across individuals. This makes it advantageous to share and organize together. In management, low group does not manage needs, whilst high grid does. The model The model is a two-by-two table...

...reactions. Values are also considered psychological objects that we cannot see or touch, but are considered physical objects (Posner, 2010). Types of values include ethical or moral values, personal values, or core values (Fiset, 2007). “Values, personal values, and core values all refer to the same thing” (Best of Time Management, 2008). Values are used by individuals and organizations. “Using values help individuals and organizations energize everything concerned with them. In this paper, I am going reflect how my values align (or do not align) with the values of Kudler Fine Foods and how they affect my performance. Where Values Comes From Individuals inherit values. They learn from their parents, teachers, and other influential individuals in their life. Values can reflect the values of the place where an individual live. Values may change some, but they last a lifetime (Best of Time Management, 2008). Everyone have values that determine their decisions and guide their lives. Individuals may dedicate or give up their entire life to pursue their values (Posner, 2010). My Values Implementing values as an individual can always attract success, achievement, and well being for that person. I have a lot of values I implement, but I am only going to discuss a few values that I use. Some of my values consist of the following: individuality, self reliant, truthfulness, family or friends, and goodness.

...Close Reading of the Scholarly Text The Value of the Individual Throughout the world there is a constant debate over the value and importance of an individual versus the perceived public’s greater good. In his article Yi-Fu Tuan, expresses his take on the differences between what is a community, what is a society, and what is the individual. Tuan attempts to highlight some of the less appealing qualities of a community while at the same time showing the benefits of a society and praises being an individual in today’s day and age. The strongest evidence of this point comes when he says, “Society values a human individual as it values an animal species, for its unique, nonreplicable way of being… notion that individualism is selfishness is thus wide of the mark…” (Tuan, 317) Throughout the article, Tuan states that in a community, it is more important to feel a sense of belonging than a sense of who you truly are and what you have achieved. In addition, he describes his personal loves and how he couldn’t imagine someone else having the exact same set of interests, which in his mind means that there isn’t anyone else that could have affected the world and society the same way that he has. In the middle of the article, Tuan has a passage titled “Specialized Language and Community” (Tuan, 315) in which he gives a perfect example of how actually defining the difference between community and society is not as easy as it seems. Tuan tells the story of two mathematicians who...

...HRM Issues Based on Hofstede’s Cultural Dimensions in Ghana Alison C Holt Saint Leo University Abstract This paper will contain information concerning the challenges human resource management faces when the organization decides to go global. Human resource management faces many global issues; however, this paper will look at Hofstede’s cultural dimension theory in the comparison of Ghana and the United States. We will look at three of Hofstede’s five dimensions and see how Ghana is rated to each of the theories. The first dimension, Individualism verses collectivism, focuses on cultures in terms relationships of individuals, families and extended families (Ivancevich & Konopaske, 2013). The second dimension, Power distance, focuses on power relationships within a culture. The last dimension, Masculinity verses femininity, focuses on gender roles within culture (Ivancevich & Konopaske, 2013). In the 21st Century, many organizations have reached out into the global market due to changes in technology, economics and social responsibility. Therefore, interactions between businesses in different countries have become routine. When a company expands globally, new challenges arise due to different laws, customs and characteristics (Ivancevich & Konopaske, 2013). International laws and customs pose numerous challenges for human resource professionals, for example, HRM must supply an adequate amount of top managers with global experience, which is necessary...

Introduction Statement of the Problem and Review of Related Literature The school is a battle field and each child is a lone soldier trying to make his/her way through. Each child will have to defeat a series of exams, scary teachers, lab experiments, physical education classes, crushes, mortal enemies and the like. Most of the time, children will learn from these experiences and mature with the lessons that each of these experiences have taught them. However, there are certain battles that wound all too deeply and do not seem to end. These battles are the battles of bullying. What is Bullying? Bullying is a social and interpersonal problem that involves the repeated, intentional use of aggression against a less powerful other (Whitney & Smith, 1993). Bullying can take different forms, be it direct (e.g., physical aggression), indirect (e.g., exclusion, spreading rumors), or verbal (e.g., name-calling). (Hunter, Mora-Merchan and Ortega, 2004) Children who are victims of bullying are more likely than non-victims...

Across all organizations and programs there are many common denominators that go intact with serving the society. Advocators within the field share the same ethical standards and the ability to work with different cultures and individuals (Gail, 2014). They also accommodate anyone no matter if they are male or female, including and not limited to sexual preference, age, nationality, beliefs or anything that is important to a client. The professionals must also empower the clients and create and implement treatment plans to help the clients reach competency and self-sufficiency (Gail, 2014). Workers also have responsibility to the clients, the community and society as a whole. All human services worker have no personal motive to help the client and cannot have any relationship with the client unless it is professional. Human services also have certain trends to approach clients. In the human services fields the trends are to enhance the quality of life overall. That is why there are different approaches that may or may not work for certain individuals. Not only is helping individual’s important, but human service has adapted to technology for business purposes. They record keep and can exchange information to refer client and so on.

...being honest with oneself and being truthful and sincere in all our actions. An honorable individual does not delude, confuse, or deny himself the truth. People describe heroes as "being with honor" or "honorable." A hero is merely one way of gaining that high respect. By showing courage and wisdom where others faltered, a person gains a sense of respect among others. Slowly, as good deeds accumulate, that respect turns into something more, and without knowing the time or place, a person has gained his honor. How can an individual or team be truly mission capable if he/they cannot accept the facts the way they are. If a person is honest with himself, then not even ignorance can be used as an excuse, because actions could have been made to prevent that ignorance. Ignorance takes away proper mission readiness, good training, good health, good work ethics, and good unit cohesion. Taking away all this things makes us ineffective and incapable to accomplish our mission not just as individuals or Administrators but as United States Marines as well. Noticing a problem and deciding to take action involves Honor and courage. Those problems are probably an example of or a cause from ignorance. To ignore or reinforce a problem, or to prevent someone else from solving a problem, is dishonorable. It takes away from Mission Readiness. It promotes further ignorance of the individual and the individuals’ peers and/or subordinates preventing mission accomplishment. Trust is defined in the dictionary...

...characteristics that make individuals unique. Some examples include: age, cognitive style, culture, disability (mental, physical, and learning), education, religious beliefs, language(s) spoken, etc. According to the text book, diversity refers to “all” ways that people are different. The whole idea of diversity opens the scope and defines diversity as a combination of items characterized by differences and similarities. Diversity has made significant improvements in our lives and will continue to grow with the changing values of our society. As one recognizes the many proportions of diversity, it is important to note that not all of them are visible. The visible aspects of diversity are those things we cannot change and are external, such age, race, ethnicity, gender, and physical attributes. On the other hand, hidden diversity includes the things not easily seen such as work experience, educational background, income, religious beliefs, and parental status. Many of our dimensions that make us different are considered hidden because they are not apparent by just looking at a person. No person’s diversity is exactly like another’s. It is a mixture of diversity attributes, that are both visible and hidden that define a person’s diversity. Diversity explores our unique characteristics that makes us who we are and deals with everyone’s individuality. So by recognizing, valuing and embracing it, we are accepting the uniqueness of each individual. “The price of the democratic...

The development of man may be influenced by social context in our lives. Such as home, family and community or an individual may be influenced by personal characteristics of values, traits or childhood experiences. Traditional stages change as society changes and many problems that individuals experience are due to problems of living. But when it comes to individuals who have very serious problems that are not caused by problems of living, it is necessary to classify their problems into identification perspectives. The perspectives are situational, societal or environmental influences that require immediate action and may be long or short termed. Individuals can be subjected to a series of environmental difficulties of a natural disaster such as fire, flooding or earth quake, they may also be subjected to a societal influences such as being homeless due to loss of employment or they may suffer from situational influences of being a victim of a violent crime. Most individuals may have multiple problems and may need to be referred to series of social service agencies to assist them to meet their goals and gain some type of balance and self-worth in their life.
