...• A team member who does not submit his or her portion of an assignment When you are a part of a team it is important to understand that your actions, or lack of actions, affect the entire team. A team leader makes assignments for portions of a project to be completed in order for the entire project to be completed on time and ensure that one person on the team isn’t doing more than they can handle. When a member of the team does not do what they were assigned, the rest of the team has to pick up the slack and rush to complete the portion that the team member missed. This puts the rest of the team in a situation that could cause stress and extra work that they wouldn’t have had to deal with if the team member had done what they said they would do. In order to avoid this it is important for all team members to understand the importance of doing what they are assigned to do. • A team member who does not meet deadlines There are many things to consider when something goes wrong when you are a part of a team or group. The first thing I would do is make sure that the deadline was known and that the team member understood the deadline and what was supposed to be completed. If there was a misunderstanding then I would make sure that the rest of the team didn’t have the same misunderstanding about the deadlines and their importance. This situation is especially true for me and this assignment. I was late in submitting my portion and it has put team members in this exact scenario...

...Week Three discussion questions 1. Project scheduling follows one of Parkinson’s laws: “Everything takes as long as it takes.” The topic for discussion is what are the elements and functions we must consider when developing the project schedule? In your experience what tools and techniques have you seen used effectively? As a contributor to inaccurate duration estimates is a situation known as Parkinson’s law. He further described “work expands so as to fill the time available for its completion”. This means that if we estimated an activity will take two weeks, it’ll end up taking two weeks even if it could have been finished in one. Tools and techniques that project managers can take to overcome Parkinson’s Law. Determine priorities, give more time to top priorities, use reliable estimating techniques, take frequent measurements on performance, and maintain visibility of those measurements. Ralph Kliem and Irwin Ludain, Tools and tips for Today’s Project Manager 2. What is your experience with sensitivity ("what if") analysis? While many organizations do not perform a formal analysis, most try at least to identify critical factors, and how the project will be affected if these change from the estimate. Share your experience with the class. When doing a sensitivity analysis, what factors that could be variables, and which could be constants? According to the PMBOK 4TH edition, a sensitivity analysis helps to determine which risk have the potential impact...

...University of Phoenix Material Week Three Practice Problems Prepare a written response to the following questions. Chapter 4 11. List the five steps of hypothesis testing, and explain the procedure and logic of each. 1. “Restate the question as a research hypothesis and a null hypothesis about the populations”. One makes a research hypothesis about a predicted correspondence among populations. The research and the null hypothesis’ are opposites, meaning if one hypothesis is correct and true the other is not. 2. “Determine the characteristics of the comparison distribution”. This is important because the comparison distribution represents the population situation if the null hypothesis is factual. This is the main idea of hypothesis testing. 3. “Determine what the cutoff sample scores on the comparison distribution where the null hypothesis should be rejected”. This means determining a target against the results that will be compared or to what extreme the sample score would have to be for it to be too doubtful that they could get such an extreme score if the null hypothesis were true. Here the null hypothesis would be rejected if the point of the cutoff sample scores reaches or exceeds the sample score. If the null hypothesis is true the Z score is established at a score which would be improbable. 4. This step is to get the actual results for the sample. “Determine your sample’s score on the comparison distribution” . After one gets the...

Please submit your complete assignment in the course room by the due date. Chapter 3 Questions (3-3) Over the past year, M. D. Ryngaert & Co. has realized an increase in its current ratio and a drop in its total assets turnover ratio. However, the company’s sales, quick ratio, and fixed assets turnover ratio have remained constant. What explains these changes? (3-5) How might (a) seasonal factors and (b) different growth rates distort a comparative ratio analysis? Give some examples. How might these problems be alleviated? (3-6) Why is it sometimes misleading to compare a company’s financial ratios with those of other firms that operate in the same industry? Chapter 3 Problems (3-1) Greene Sisters has a DSO of 20 days.

...Carlyle Brown Network Protocols and Standards Week 3 Homework 1. When was the first major standard describing a structured cabling system released? c. 1995 2. Why is balance an issue in UTP cables, and what is TCL? i. The balance or symmetry of the signal over the wire pairs helps minimize unwanted leakage of the signal. ii. TCL - Transverse Conversion Loss - The TCL measurement is obtained by applying a common-mode signal to the input and measuring the differential signal level on the output. a. TCL is sometimes called LCL (Longitudinal Conversion Loss). The ELTCLT value (expressed in dB) is the difference between the TCTL and the differential mode insertion loss of the pair being measured. TCTL is the loss from a balanced signal at the near-end to the unbalanced signal at the far end. Section 2-2 1. When was the first major standard describing a structured cabling system released? c. 1995 2. What doe EIA and TIA stand for? i. EIA – Electronics Industries Alliance ii.

...Week 3 Assignment 1 Strayer University Managing Organizational Change HRM560 October 23, 2013 Week 3 Assignment 1 1. Using Kotter’s model, identify the three (3) most significant errors made out of all of the change stories presented and describe the ramifications of those mistakes. a) The first significant effort I’d like to discuss is Kodak’s evolution into the digital technology era. I believe the Kotter’s error that relates to them most is, “failing to create short-term wins”. While Kodak felt as if they were making the correct decision, a big goal, coupled with limited planning is a recipe for disaster. Also, by not implementing a series of short-terms wins the staff and investors were both left to wonder what is considered success. If those benchmarks had been set the concern from both of the aforementioned parties could have been ceased or negated altogether. b) The second significant error was made by McDonalds. I believe the Kotter’s error that applies to their scenario is, “Allowing too much complacency”. As an established and well known brand, it is easy for industry leaders such as McDonalds to get complacent. As times change so does the customer. Today’s society is more cognizant of health risk, and now more than ever it is trendy to diet and exercise. As a leading fast-food chain McDonalds should have been ahead of the trend by ways of their research and development. Their complacency resulted in lawsuits and a identify crises that...

...Moore, Paul History 109 (World Civilization) 08 September 2013 Professor Karl Golemo The rise of Christianity during the middle ages is part with the collapse of Rome. The mighty empire had fallen in the western part of the territory and this left the Christian churches as a source of political, social and cultural unity. The church for Christians found itself to be in a particularly strong position when it came to the nobility of the feudal system that was still in place. With the Roman Empire pretty much in shambles the Christians had the perfect model government to format a new judicial and administrative model after. And let’s be honest during the Middle Ages only the rich or clergy had access to reading and writing so with small lordships or local kings trying to hold on to what authority they thought they had the Church walked in or was handed the keys to the car and started moving towards a centralized control of politics. And like most ordeals when it comes to power and being in control of everything a monopoly starts and no one knows how to stop it. When an organization has claim on your going to heaven or hell along with how you should conduct yourself here in the present that is truly a lot of power which most did not defy. In one case the church had made requests for followers to commit themselves on Crusades of protecting the Holy land of Jerusalem and doing what is right in the sight of God. But with doing what right in God’s eye may be working together that...

...The Litigation Process LAW/531 February 20, 2012 The Litigation Process According to "Methods For Resolving Conflicts And Disputes" (2012), In today's complex society we all deal with conflict in our daily lives; at home, work, school, in personal and business relations. Most of us would prefer to have our conflicts resolved fairly without violence or animosity. We would like our differences settled at the least cost and stress to ourselves, families, jobs or businesses.” (para. 1). According to Miller Johnson Schroeder, PLC (2012), “Litigation, or dispute resolution, is the process by which lawsuits are handled”. As settlement Offers are usually settled prior to court in a form of Alternative Dispute Resolution, some people prefers to have their cases soled in the court room. Benefits of counsel’s in solving litigations Team B discussed the benefits a counsel provides in helping a victim to decide whether to take a settlement offer or pursue litigation. Team B agreed that what a lawyer does usually is to spot strengths and weaknesses in your case, which affect the value of the case itself. For this matter skills are needed in order to know how to evaluate a case properly, taking into account all of the damages available both past, present and future. Counsel will be the third party to help negotiate a settlement outside of court. Counsel should be involved before you attempt to settle since, typically, you will be setting...

...Currently, I approach weekly course reading material in a fairly unconventional way. My weekdays are usually incredibly hectic between my job of working with my clients and my day to day personal life with my children, so finding any quality reading time is hard during the day time hours. I generally have all reading material downloaded to my laptop in advance as we all should so I can get in a bit of reading time during my break time and my clients nap time. The problem with this is, even though it is quiet and my break time, there is still quite a bit of activity going on around me having to deal with small odds and ends, breaking any concentration I have and understanding of the text. I do get a small amount of time in peace when I get home and right before the kids get home after school in which I use to get in some reading and study time. This time is definitely quality time as my concentration is at its greatest and I can get something done. The night hours, usually after dinner, is where things have been really difficult as this is the time where the bulk of my study and reading time is. Thankfully my fiancée has begun to rectify this problem for me (when he is home from work himself) by keeping the kids busy with various things and away from me during this time so I can actually get quite a bit done in peace and...

...Week Three Reflection Summary Anna Delarosa RES 351 February 3, 2014 Dr. Joseph Oloyede Week Three Reflection Summary Within our third week, the team was tasked with the objective to differentiate between qualitative and quantitative methods of research. Next, the team was asked to explain the commonly used qualitative research designs and quantitative research designs. Finally the team was the asked to identify how to select appropriate research designs in any given situation. Quantitative research attempts to achieve precise measurement of something; often the responses received are veiled, classified, and condensed to numbers to be manipulated for statistical analysis (Cooper & Schindler, 2011, p. 164). The insights gained from completing this research is limited by the opportunity to probe respondents, and the quality of the original data collection instrument. Additionally, this will follow data collection and data entry, with a small window of opportunity to circle back with survey participants. In contrast, qualitative research is intended to tell the examiner how and why things happen as they do, it also aims to achieve a thorough understanding of a situation. The expected result or insights with this method provide a more profound level of understanding; which is determined by the type and amount of open-ended questions. Using qualitative research allows the researcher to inform insights and test them throughout the study process. Qualitative...
