...Step One: Establishing a Sense of Urgency Establishing a sense of urgency is essential to gain the cooperation needed to initiate a greater need for change. Some leaders misjudge the difficulty to get people out of their comfort zone, or give themselves too much credit for how well they think they have already done. They could also just lack the patience required to develop appropriate urgency. Leaders should understand the importance of having a sense off urgency. If they did, they would be able to differentiate between complacency, false urgency and true urgency. Many times change initiatives fail isn’t due to being poorly thought out, or insufficient facts, the problem is that the case is all head and no heart. Leaders should “Aim for the Heart.” This way they will connect to the values of their people and encourage them to become great. The business will then bloom with human experience, engage the senses, create messages that are simple and imaginative, and call people to aspire. Step Two: Creating the Guiding Coalition Forming the right coalition of people to lead a change initiative is detrimental to its success. The coalition must have the right composition, a substantial level of trust, and a mutual objective. Decision-making is an important component for teams. In a world that is constantly changing, organizations are forced to make decisions more quickly and with less certainty. Teams of leaders and managers acting together are the only effective way to make...

...The 39 Steps Response Paper The 39 Steps is the first play that I saw from the School of Arts and Sciences at Ohio University. It was adapted from the novel written by John Buchan and the 1935 film by Hitchcock. The story is about an English man named Richard Hannay, who is plunged into international espionage after meeting a beautiful Russian woman spy in a theatre. After she tells her secrets and mentions the 39 steps to Hannay, she gets injured and finally dies in his house. He is charged with the crime of murder, so he runs away but at the same time tries to find the Professor and the meaning of the 39 steps. On his journey, he stays in a shepherd’s cottage and the wife of shepherd helps him escape. Then he meets a woman named Pamela. After being cuffed together, they escape from fake police chasing after them and find a hotel to stay. Soon, they have feelings for each other. Eventually, Richard Hannay kills the Professor in a gunfight and he marries Pamela. They live a happy life ever after. The play is hilarious. There are many hilarious dialogues and creative performances. I think the most exciting part of the play is there are only four actors in the play. In the scene of the station, two clown actors switched their hats to show that they portray in different roles. Every character they play, they play them realistically and lively. Even the same actor plays two roles in one scene, but the audience can distinguish them easily. In addition, the story happens in the United...

Today many 12 step program have form and also alternative 12 step programs with more God or God being removed but at the basis level it is the twelve steps. I also believe the twelve steps are just basic tools that all people need or most people have received the basis tools when growing up in a healthy family system. The 12 steps teach humility, respect, honest, caring, and to be of service, these are the essential for all people. I always share with people who want to DO the twelve steps but don’t know which program they qualify for, I just say pick one. Find a group that works for you find your tribe like the big book says. I remember meeting someone that gave a message from Mother Theresa and she said the message was to remember “we do much bigger work that she ever did, we touch the lives of the hopeless and give them hope” Mother Theresa. That is powerful, Twelve Step programs transform lives. I have been a twelve...

...Twelve Step Program Unk Author1 1 Kaplan University Abstract This paper is about the twelve step program and the lasting affect it has on individuals who suffer from addiction. The twelve step program is a treatment program that holds people accountable for their actions to overcome their addiction and head down the road to recovery. This paper also explains an organization that I want to observe who implement the twelve step program among other things like a phase based treatment program. A phase based treatment program, is a structured program set up for individuals who recently were released from prison or jail. The program is intense and structured leaving the offenders accountable for their own actions, progress, and success. Once the offender has completed all their phases successfully they are up for graduation, where participation in their alumni is encouraged. Twelve Step Program Twelve step programs or self-help groups are designed to help in the treatment and recovery of addiction and are highly effective with a lasting success rate. The main focus of self-help groups are to bring people together who suffer from addiction and provide an emotional support system along with valuable information. Self-help groups are great for individuals to be able to relate to something or someone, because they may not get that opportunity out in their personal life. They get pressured into using, pressured into stopping, given ultimatums, etc. and all they really...

...There are times in an individual’s life when he or she may have difficulty coping with day-to-day activities. Some get through these activities and the end results turn into them being stressed. One coping mechanism that a person may resort to when stressed, angry, or just want to relax after a hard days work is drinking alcohol. This may become quiet dangerous to someone’s health because drinking can turn into a habit. People who are notorious for drinking everyday become alcoholics. A human body can become immune to the alcohol, which results into overconsumption of alcohol. In other words, the more a person drinks, the more drinks it takes for them to actually get drunk and satisfied; this person experiences alcoholism. There are specific meetings for people who know they are alcoholics and want to seek help to quit, as well as people who are mandated and ordered by the law to veer away from alcohol. On Tuesday, March 26th at 8:00pm I went to my first alcoholic anonymous meeting. The meeting name is called Wayward Open, which means the meeting type was open to anyone that cared to join. The location of the meeting is at Our Saviour Church (1234 N Arlington Hts Rd, Arlington Heights) on every Tuesday evening for an hour or less. Before the observation I felt intimidated and scared to enter the church. The reason why I was scared to enter the group was because I thought I would be looked at differently since I was not an alcoholic. I also felt like the members would gain up...

...12 step reflection paper 12 Steps to recovery is it for you? The 12 steps to recovery is used as an aid with other therapies not just by its self. It is not for everyone, every addict needs a unique/different approach to recovery, and the approach that will work best for you is dependent on your individual beliefs, needs and circumstances. In my opinion Faith in a higher power is one of the most important things needed in the traditional 12-step process. So therefore if you do not believe in any kind of higher power the 12 step programs are probably not for you. If your faith is important to you, you may need to find a program that will allow you to really embrace your beliefs. For many people, a traditional 12-step approach works for them, but others need to focus on a more tangible way of focusing on their recovery. The 12-Steps are more than just a way for some people to stay sober. They’re a map for living life as a whole being in their interpretation. They consist of the universal spiritual principles like tell the truth, treat others as you’d want to be treated, monitor your failures, apologize for them and make things amends if you can do so without hurting others. The Steps provide tools for living a full, satisfying, meaningful life. These steps mean admission of alcoholism, it’s a personality analysis and catharsis, adjustment to personal relations, dependence upon some higher power and working with other alcoholics to better themselves together. Step one:...

...Now that my group mate just explained step 1 and step 2 of building an REA diagram which include the determination of events, agents and resources respectively. Lets move on to the step 3: determination of cardinalities. Cardinalities describe the nature of the relationship between the entities and are represented by the Row'`s foot notation. Circle means 0, stroke means 1 and crow`s foot means many. 1) Step by step. For this relationship we have this cardinalities. For each inventory type, the minimum inventory order and inventory receipt is zero, because if you dont purchase there will be no inflow of inventory and the maximum is many, because it can be more than one inventory item per order. 2) The inverse relationship shows that per each inventory order and inventory received there could be a minimum of one inventory associated and a maximum of many. for obvious reasons you can buy more than one 3) Next is a bit trick. We have to remember that order inventory is a commitment event, and when commitment events are linked to other events they reflect a cause and effect relationship . In this case the order will cause the receipt to happen, thats why the maximim will be one in both sides, however the inventory receipt will be the minimum for each other because in the case of ice cream you may not receive the inventory since delivery happnes in the next day. And for each received inventory the minimum order is also zero, because in the case of ordering toppings you dont have...

...Last night, I attended a Narcotics Anonymous meeting. This was not quite a new experience for me, be my late father was an alcoholic and narcotics addict that died of cirrhosis later on in my life this is why I identified myself with them. Narcotics Anonymous is a fraternity or association where there a recuperating addicts and their main purpose is stay clean. Consequently, the member of this fraternity were well-groomed, yesterday was ice cream sticks day where they had a keyword written on a little piece of paper, such as “perseverance”. Anyone can be a narcotics or alcohol user. Furthermore, as I stated previously Sunday night I attended was a NA meeting. This meeting included one woman and approximately eight men, all the attendees were recuperating addicts. Personally, I did not feel out place or anxious around them because, I identified myself with them by my personal experience with my father and myself being that some of the medication I take for both my emotional and physical disability are addictive as well. This experience was not any different from my experience with the Alcoholics Anonymous fraternity as well because I stayed sober or clean from my occasional drinking habits because suffer gastritis or acid reflux. . As the apostle Paul wrote inspired by God “Older men are to be quiet and to be careful how they act. They are to be the boss over their own desires. Their faith and love are to stay strong and they are not to give up; teach older women to be quiet...

...himself. The supervisor also found him work to do and did not just keep him doing odd jobs. Some of the weaknesses include that Jacob did not receive sufficient training even though the task was easy just watching him do it a couple of times does not suffice. The supervisor did not acknowledge the fact that sometimes some people take longer to learn something even if it’s an easy task. The supervisor should have had a senior employee training Jacob if he did not have enough time to do it. Also the supervisor did not check back later in the day to see if everything was going okay and if he had any questions or if he needed support. The supervisor was consistent with Step 2: Instruction, of the job instruction training, he gave Jacob the instructions of how to do the job. However the supervisor failed to do the other 3 steps including preparation, performance and follow up. The supervisor did not fully prepare Jacob to do the job even though the job was simple he did not complete a vital part of preparation and that is communication. He did not see how much Jacob already knew about the task and develop a communication strategy that fits him. The supervisor also did not provide and feedback or reinforcement while Jacob was doing the job even though he watched him do the job a couple of times instead he just left him once he thought he got the hang of it. Lastly, the supervisor failed to follow up with Jacob, he did not monitor Jacob’ performance and at the end of the shift see how it...

...the last person you had didn’t mesh well with your team that isn’t very ethical. There are several legal considerations that you must consider. First you need to decide if the test you are giving is valid for the position you are giving it for. For example, it is valid to give a basic math test to someone that is applying for a bank position, or a typing test to a person applying for a data entry position. However, it wouldn’t be valid to give a switch them up by giving the basic math test to the data entry person because math skills do not apply to data entry so to do this would be against the law. Another thing one must do is if you decide to test for something valid you must give the test to every applicant that has made it to this step in the application process. If you do not you open yourself to a lawsuit for discrimination. For example, if you are giving swim tests for a lifeguard position you cannot just test someone because you think that they looks like they are less able to swim. Not only must you administer the test to every applicant you must do so in the same setting and time frame. This means that all applicants must have equal prep time, and the test should be given in the same location, under the same circumstances. In order to pick a valid test you should follow this process found on page 123 of our textbook: 1. Analyze the job, 2. Choose...
