Communication is very essential while implementing change in an organization. A planned change cannot take place in an organization through automation. Rather, the implementation and sustenance of change is accomplished through human communication. Even though communication is vital in the failure or success of an the change effort of an organization, little information is known about strategies a leader can effectively use to communicate organizational change as well as the types of conversations a change leader must have to communicate the change. Besides, it is very critical to understand basic skills necessary for effective communication. This paper is concerned with advancing a ...

One of the factors that affect human resource management is organization structure and development. At a supervisory level, managers have more control to influence the performance of an organization. Managers that portray organizational commitment motivate employees and create an atmosphere of job satisfaction. This increases the performance of an organization (Armstrong, 2008).
According to Armstrong (2009), motivation especially in terms of money plays a significant role in influencing employee performance. However, one needs to note that money, as a motivating factor will be effective as long as the money strongly motivates the employees. The general desire to serve and help other ...

of an Organisation’s Strategic Objectives
of an Organisation’s Strategic Objectives
The efficacy of an organisation results from the development of its culture, which occurs over a long period of time (Bryant, 2013, p. 147). In particular, organisational culture refers to the standards, behaviorsbehaviours, attitudes, values, and beliefs that shared by individuals or groups within an organisation share. Moreover, an organisation’s structure is defined by its culture defines its structure, which impacts the manner by in which individuals and groups contribute to the organisation’s growth. It is a dynamic phenomenon that surrounds people at all times ...

- Equality issues that trade unions should address
Promotion of equality at the work place is one of the key functions of trade unions. The main priorities that trade unions bargain on are pay packages that are offered to workers and the terms and conditions under which the workers carry out their duties. The framework that governs the employer regulation has been strengthened over in the years in countries such the United Kingdom, United States of America and Denmark; it is often the prerogative of the employers to interpret the statute law. The trade unions are a powerful force ...

Introduction: Social Control

Social control entails generally to both the political and societal mechanisms/ processes present, which aid in the regulation of group and individual behavior. This is often in an attempt at gaining both compliance and conformity to the prevailing rules, norms and regulations set, in a given jurisprudence, social grouping or society. In the field of sociology, this is categorized into two core avenues: informal and formal means of social control. The former, pertains to the internalization of various values and norms, through various forms of socio-cultural and religious interactions. The latter, entails the presence of external sanctions, enforceable through policies, ...

Trust, commitment to organizational goals and readiness to apply efforts to reach common goals represent the key assets that allow for a successful performance of a team. According to Lencioni (2002), the absence of trust is a foundational dysfunction of a team, stemming from ‘team members’ unwillingness to be vulnerable within a team’ (p.187). If a team leader is not able to promote openness among team members, they may also fear a conflict, striving to an artificial harmony. Apart from promoting trust and constructive conflict, a team manager needs to be able to inspire employees and develop their commitment. ...

Cohabitation before marriage has been a sensitive issue not only in the United State but also in other places in the world. First of all, it is important to note that the institution of marriage is a covenant that has its own regulations and governing rules. Society as whole, in most cases, has viewed marriage as the source of companionship and child bearing. However, the maintenance of the covenant in a marriage is a subject that has been difficult for many couple today. Many researchers both in the academia and within other fields have embarked on research to determine some of the reasons ...

Voluntary status is a type of civil commitment where a person assigns themselves to a psychiatric holding. The law allows a person, above 18 years, who believes being held in such a holding would be useful to be allowed a voluntary admission (Disability Rights Ohio). In such a situation, a person signs an application form for the voluntary status, which is later approved by the hospital staff on whether or not to grant admission. I believe this commitment is more superior since a person can identify changes in their thought patterns. For instance, if they have suicidal thoughts it ...

Information Systems, IT and Organization Culture

Organizational culture is a way of behavior, living, interaction and overall conduct of people in an organization. Culture is fundamentally the collective development and understanding of human minds that differentiate the members of a human group in relation to others; therefore, culture can be defined as a system of communally held values . Schien describes organizational culture to be the deeper point of basic conjectures and values that are fundamentally shared by elements of any organization, that operate instinctively and defined in basic fashion the organization‘s view of its environment and its self.

1. The most important idea that I learned in Part Three is the central importance of the leader’s actual actions upon the behavior of all those working with him or her. It reinforces for me the absolute requirement for trust within business relationships and the role of honesty and responsibility to building the required trust. I appreciated the enumeration of the six values of leaders that are “caring” – honesty, consideration, responsibility, persistence, excellence, and commitment. However, rather than the emotion-laden term of “caring” I would prefer the use of trust-worthy. For it is trust that forms the bedrock ...

Organization Behaviour

Motivation is the force that drives people into action and encourages them to exert more effort towards carrying out something. Employees who are well motivated are more comfortable and will have feelings of happiness and fulfilment. Johansson and Heide (2008) points out that besides, being well motivated workers tend to produce high-quality results and are more productive than their counterparts. In the case study, the workforce is less. They are overwhelmed in the course of their duty. They are not able to work overtime because their terms of service are contractual. The ...

In May 1961, America was experiencing growing pains. The issue of racial segregation was increasingly thrown into the spotlight. Each individual had a different perspective on the issue based on different motivations, and a different degree to which they would defend this perspective. These perspectives are illustrated through four key players in the freedom rides, as examined in the PBS documentary Freedom Riders (2010).
The freedom rides were the brainchild of Jim Farmer, the national director of the Committee of Racial Equality (CORE) at the time. His radical idea was a kind of public dare, to test constitutional rights, ...

Q.1
The five basic assumptions of positivism in law are realism, objectivity, scientific evidence, and ultimate proof is unattainable. The realism operates in order to impress investigators to face the reality without letting their emotions cloud their judgments. The objectivity wants them to focus on objectives without getting hurt from the presence of obstacles and problems in the way of solving the crime. The good investigator always follows the evidence because it does not lie, but people do in order to hide their wrongdoings. The final assumption argues that ultimate proof is not possible to be found, and ...

Introduction

It is said that in this world, change is the only permanent thing. Indeed, changes in the nursing profession and health care industry are inevitable as a result of external and internal catalysts. Policy reforms occur because of social, economic and political pressures. Knowledge is created every day, technology evolves at a fast pace, and consumer demands change. Organisations must respond effectively by modifying their strategic goals, structures, systems, processes, and culture (Anderson & Ackerman-Anderson, 2001). As a result, the professional roles of nurses expand, clinical practices improve, the work environment benefits from redesign, and patients receive better care. For this reason, change ...

- History and Importance of Team Work
A team is a group of people with complementary skills who work together to achieve a common purpose. (Armstrong M.2008) The concept of team work has a deep rooted history dating back to over 2000 years ago. It is a character that exists even within animals. Early man use to collaborate together in order to hunt down large animals like Elephants. Likewise, beings such as ants collaborate to build a big anthill. In the past, Jesus Christ advised his disciples to work in teams. Human beings often have weaknesses. It only takes the eyes and the ...

Team Nursing

Team nursing is a system where patient care is distributed among nurses working in a coordinated approach. Craig (2015) defines team nursing as two or more people interacting interdependently with a common purpose, having measurable goals and encouraging mutual participation in problem-solving. It is the shared purpose that makes it possible for teams to implement ways through which they promote desirable health outcomes by sharing patients’ results and jointly participating in discussions to enhance performance. In such cases, the nurse in charge can delegate authority to a team leader who then works closely with the rest of the team ...

The plan specifies HR department’s programs that it is required to carry over the next few years with the aim of achieving the organizational objectives and mission in a systematic implementation and design. The overall effectiveness of the Strategic HRM Plan largely depends on the commitment of top managers to the new philosophy that people are a critical factor to the success of the organization (Bratton, 2007). It also must ensure that ...

Marriage was considered as an arrangement which was legal and religious for sexual expression and legitimate child bearing. The earlier trend of getting married at a younger age has changed. Both men and women remain unmarried or marry later than they did in the past.(Hehner,2013) Many young adults remain unmarried as they don’t want to have a committed relationship. Women value their career more than their traditional roles as mothers and housewives.
As it becomes difficult to balance between work and family many young women choose to remain unmarried. College education and employment has changed the ...

The Social Bond Theory was due to the need to try to create an explanation to social problems that may not have been addressed. The social control theory was developed based on the Social Bond Theory; the theory was found as an interesting way of addressing diverse social problems.

The theory tries to create an understanding of the diverse element of a society that varies from social norms, commitment to institutions and attachment to family members (Hirschi, 2002).

The speaker Tony Robbins is a famous life coach who talks on business and specifically talks about “why we do what we do”. The speaker in the video highlights that there are invisible forces that shape us and drive action. For instance, the effective leaders are those who motivate themselves and others to action because they understand about internal motivational forces affecting human thought processes and cognitions. In addition, the resourcefulness that comprises of creativity, determination, curiosity, love, passion and resolve is more important than resources (time, money, knowledge, technology).

The article has its main claim that there exists a relationship between the human mind and the surrounding nature. This interdependence assists in repossession of our ecological dependent lost identity. This in addition helps in maneuver our behavior towards closing the dash between behavior and proenvironmental attitudes. The ecopsychologists take into account the existing relationship between the human nature and the natural environment as of importance to the mental health and hence ecological health. They consider that there is an existing loss of human external context as a result of the luxurious focus on the inner experience in relation to the ...

Management: Process Evaluation

- The link between the performance of an organization and its effective management of the human resource cannot be underestimated. Different research works and studies including those done by Hawthorne have attempted to chart a logical connection between the two significant variables. Information on the performance of an organization is usually obtained from the Human Resource Managers (Cascio & Boudreau, 2011). The human resource has many advantages in management. The competitive advantage of an organization is penned on the proper, efficient and effective handling of the people working.

For changing this situation, and for allowing more students the opportunity to break out of the routinized working environment that would otherwise expect them after graduation, Darling – Hammond is suggesting the application of an educational model based on five practices, meant to challenge the educational focus of nowadays elementary and secondary schools:

2. Structures that allow for personalization and strong relationships
3. Intellectually challenging and relevant instruction;
4. Performance – based assessment
5. Highly competent teachers who collaborate in planning and problem - solving” (Darling - Hammond, 2010, p. 244).

How Craig and Reina's differing religious beliefs parallel their opposing views on relationships.

Introduction
Religion is a fundamental facet of humanity. It shapes human opinions on what is right or wrong and largely influences decision-making. Factoring in the ambiguity of some religious teachings and the liberty of individuals to make independent decisions regarding personal satisfaction, religious beliefs can spark up a lot of controversy especially between people who are in romantic relationships. The book titled Blankets is a classic depiction of the tug of war that exists between religious teachings on one hand and strong emotional feelings and persuasions on the other. This book is a graphical autobiographical novel by Craig Thompson which illustrates his progression ...

Before you are some basic arguments against gay marriage: The first is that it defies what is believed to be an ancient tradition that has always been that of the union of a man and a woman.

What really is the peril of altering the definition of marriage, will god get angry?
Seemingly god created gay people so why should he be mad when they try to attain the same standards of living as straight people. ...

Despite the efforts by many organizations to decant time and resources into encouraging and realize diversity in the work place, majority limit their definition of diversity to ethnicity and gender. One of the most overwhelming diversity challenges, generational diversity, often goes unnoticed and unaddressed.

However, many organizations and employers leave work place teams and employees on their own to address these issues rather than provide support and direction. Although many view ...

Ignore everybody

This idea has always appealed to me. In fact, it defines my principles and informs some of my strengths. Originality dictates that one tries out new things. One does not have to do what others have already done. In business, people are advised to be risk averse or if anything risk neutral. This goes against my principle. I believe in trying out new things. In that regard, I appreciate the concept of ignoring others. People tend to be averse to risk and would want to try only tried and tested methods. However, this usually limits their potential and leads ...

‘Why I Write’ (1946)

Having read these three essays by Orwell and noting the dates they were published, I would have to say that what is important to Orwell does change to a certain extent, but some important things remain constant. The main thing that changes is his political awareness. In ‘Why I Write’ he states that.

Every line of serious work that I have written since 1936 has been written, directly or indirectly, against totalitarianism and for democratic socialism, as I understand it.

He makes clear that his experiences as a police officer in Burma and his subsequent experiences of ...
