...Analysis of Team Charter Week three collaboration between team C members resulted in interesting similarities and difference between team members in reference to personality types, listening skills, and trust level. Post the self assessment offered by Prentice Hall through the University of Phoenix; each team member got a better understanding of his / her team member strength and weaknesses, knowing that based on the self assessment there are no such “right” answer and neither extreme better than the other. The personality different types for team C can be summarized as follows: 1. xxxxxxxxxxxxxx = ENFJ 2. zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz = ENTJ 3. eeeeeeeeeee = ENTJ 4. rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr = ENTJ “ENTJ = is outgoing, visionary, argumentative, have low tolerance for incompetence, and often seen as a natural leader. As far career the survey lists; possible career as a manager, management trainer, stockholder, lawyer, chemical engineer, or police officer. ENFJ = is charismatic, compassionate, and highly persuasive. Possible career as a TV producer, fundraiser, drama teacher, or health adviser”.

...Week 1 ADR Clause for Team Charter In the event that a dispute/conflict arises among the team members and cannot be resolved between the parties within 24 hours, the Alternative Dispute Resolution clause will be the last resort and will be called upon and enabled. The dispute can only be in reference to the team functions and includes, but is not limited to, turning in assignments on the proper due dates or as agreed upon, participation/attendance and disagreements with team members. If a dispute cannot be resolved with the 24 hours and the ADR is enabled, the disputing members agree to participate in a mediation process. The mediator, a neutral person appointed by the remaining team members, will assist the disputing team in an effort to clarify the issue. Each member of the disputing team will interact and communicate with the mediator with the exclusive intention of reaching a voluntary agreement. The mediation process does not include any formal procedures and the mediator does not have the power to make a decision or an award, he/she will act as an intermediary between the parties to help facilitate the decision process. If the mediator proves to become bias and the majority of the remaining team members agree on this, the mediator can be replaced and another mediator can be appointed. If an agreement is not reached within 24 hours after the mediation process started and the mediator was appointed, the dispute will be pushed to be resolved through arbitration. The arbitrator...

...Misleading Graphs Paper and Presentation Team A: Roderick Hayes II, Melissa Krol, Ann Leal, Wanda Otey, and Corinn Sanders QNT/273 May 9, 2011 Terry Dunning Misleading Graphs Paper and Presentation Graphs are used to give a visual image of data so readers can analyze and translate it quicker and easier than looking at a mass of numbers. However, incorrectly drawn or disproportionately drawn graphs can lead a reader to incorrect translation of data (Bluman, 2009). This document will describe the problems associated with the graph shown below, explain how they affect readers, and what needs to be done to correct the graph (University of Phoenix, 2010). [pic] (Misleading Graphs, 2011) Problems This bar chart represents sales from the year 1995 -1998, this is an assumption because there is no indication that the figures on the horizontal axis represent years. Charts can be quite useful in explaining many capacities of numbers. In looking at this chart, the boxes seem large because of the 3-D effect, which in this chart makes the 1995 bar seem taller than any of the other bars. The label “number of singles sold” on the vertical axis is unclear. The vertical axis also has no percentages or other numeric values indicating how much was sold and the horizontal axis is vague as it does not indicate what the numbers listed represent (Misleading Graphs, 2011). Effect on Users The chart is not properly set up for users to accurately read the...

...POWER POINT SLIDES There should be approximately six Power Point slides per presentation. 1) Intro Slide: Business Concept name, Team members’ names (first & last) Date 2) Statement of the Big Idea (simple product description): In as few words as possible, define your product idea (e.g., Wrenchead.com sells auto parts to consumers and professionals over the Internet.) 3) Product Description You can add more detail about your product: F.I.S.T. What differentiates your idea from the competition (e.g., odd-numbered mismatched socks, chauffer service that gets you and your car home safely, ice cream shaped like a hot dog that can be accessorized)? Paint a picture of how and why customers will be attracted to your product. 4) Value Proposition Highlight what benefits your product will bring to the customers, whether they are specific TJX stores or TJX end-use customers or both. How will it increase earnings or cut costs? The critical difference between the Product Description and the Value Proposition is data: “Show me the numbers.” Supply some quantitative data that supports the feasibility of your business. Find facts and figures that show the size of your potential market, their disposable income, the projected growth of a particular market niche, etc. Cite industry analysis, if appropriate. Use a graph or pie chart to highlight the data. For example, in the case of LittleMissMatched, the Value Proposition would focus on: i) the population of “tweens”...

...players in the client organization know what they found in private before they hold a presentation or progress review. 2. DISPLAYING DATA WITH CHARTS * Keep it simple — one message per chart Following principle of simplicity, the more complex chart is less effective. Chart is used to convey the primary information. A chart should include a good lead which can express the key point of the chart in one simple sentence and a source attribution which would help people review the data at future time. * Use a waterfall chart to show the flow The waterfall chart is an outstanding way to illustrate quantitative flows. Through mixing the negative and positive item, it can depict vividly subtotal of cash flow and net income. 3. MANAGING INTERNAL COMMUNICATIONS * Keep the information flowing Information flowing can help your teammates understand how their work is contributing to the final goal, how their efforts are worthwhile. In addition, good information flow can help you spot emerging problems (or opportunities) faster because people in different areas will acquire some useful information which you don’t realize. There are two basic methods of internal communication: the message, such as voice mail, e-mail, or memo, and the meeting. Team meetings give a chance to exchange information in all directions and improve the team cohesion. The two key factors for a successful meeting are a leader and an agenda. The...

...map out ideas visually and are visual aids for learning and instruction (Instructional Strategies Online, 2013). Graphic organizers help students be actively involved in their learning process and also helps them discover new information and make connections that they did not think of or know before. A K-W-L chart is an example of a graphic organizer. It is broken up into three columns label K, W, and L. This chart is used to list what the students already know, what they want to know, and what they learned at the end of the unit. This graphic organizer activates the students’ prior knowledge and gets them thinking about the topic and what they want to know. It allows the students to organize the information they are learning and keeps them engaged and interested in the unit. K-W-L charts are a great way for students to organize their thoughts and learning and a way for teachers to direct instruction throughout a unit. The lesson I will use to teach the students how to use a K-W-L chart is on the unit of sharks. At the beginning of the unit I will post a K-W-L chart about sharks on the classroom wall. I will explain to the students that we will be filling out this chart at the beginning of the unit, during the unit, and at the end of the unit.
