ORGANIZATIONAL BEHAVIOR AND THEORY

Listen to this podcast on learning to love criticism.

As you listen to the podcast, consider and respond to the questions below. This response is self-reflection-focused; I am looking for your thoughtful consideration of the questions at hand rather than the application of course concepts.

1. Anticipate the feedback that your OB Problem Analysis team members will say about you. Name two positive and two critical pieces of feedback you think you will receive.

2. Feedback is key for employee development and growth. Have you sought feedback, particularly critical feedback before? From whom and when do you, or should you, seek critical feedback?

3. Optional: Since we know that feedback givers tend to focus on critical feedback or not give feedback at all, you might have bright spots (i.e., something positive) big or small that have occurred that you wish others knew or had provided some positive feedback on. For example, this might be passing a tough class, maintaining mental health while working from home, celebrating a milestone birthday, securing an internship, launching a new event in a student organization, etc. Share your bright spot with a photo (your own or image from the internet) or a few words. Note that photos and words may be shared with our class lab.

Why does culture shock occur to people who make cultural transitions? What personal experiences do you have with cultural transitions? How do relations of power and dominance affect adaptation? What dialectical tensions can you identify in the process of adapting to intercultural transitions?

Culture shock

Demonstrate a solid understanding of intercultural transitions by discussing TWO of these questions. When doing so, describe and explain, i.e., use the concepts discussed in our Martin-Nakayama text to elaborate and make sure you cite your source(s) directly in your response.

1. Why does culture shock occur to people who make cultural transitions?

2. What personal experiences do you have with cultural transitions?

3. How do relations of power and dominance affect adaptation?

4. What dialectical tensions can you identify in the process of adapting to intercultural transitions?

Reminder: Throughout your essay, explain and apply at least three concepts discussed in our Martin-Nakayama text to support your reasoning, and make sure you cite your source(s) (i.e., include proper in-text citations according to the style manual of your choice).

Use e-textbook (textbook is – Martin, J.N., Nakayama, T.K. (2022). Intercultural Communication in Contexts (8th edition). Boston: McGraw-Hill. ISBN10: 1260837459)

CHAPTER 8 is used for this assignment.

From own analysis, discuss what would need to be done to “do difference differently, i.e. what policy changes or anti-racist behaviors might create greater equality in this particular domain of what we do.

How the Past Became Present

Write a paper that explains how the past comes into the present when we are “doing race”. Choose one of the examples from the passage above that Markus and Moya mentioned or choose another aspect of individual and collective behavior and explain the mechanisms that have worked overtime to reproduce racial and ethnic inequality. Example could be like “going to work or school.” or “buying a house.” In the paper

(1) explain how race and ethnic inequality affects the ability of people from different racial groups to do that and what the consequences are as they do so. Be specific about what kinds of things people do, what resources they have available, and how the structure of intergroup relations and institutional processes, as well as everyday interactions, lead to an outcome where this every day and routine activity shapes how people do race and ethnicity.

(2) From own analysis, discuss what would need to be done to “do difference differently, i.e. what policy changes or anti-racist behaviors might create greater equality in this particular domain of what we do.

How does FedRAMP help agencies ensure the security of digital government services? What is meant by “Digital Government services? (previously called “e-Government” services)

FedRAMP

Create an MS Word document containing your “short paper” (response) for the discussion topic. Use MS Word to spell check and grammar check your work!
The format for your week 3 discussion is a Talking Points Paper. Talking points help decision-makers/leaders/managers make decisions. Decision-makers use talking points instead of (or in addition to) reading lengthy reports because the talking points only include the pertinent facts and/or the bottom line – meaning each talking point stands alone in the context of the paper topic.
Prepare a set of talking points (3 to 5 paragraphs or 5 categories / 20-25 bullet points total) that address the following information request:
How does FedRAMP help agencies ensure the security of digital government services?
Your talking points must address the following:
What is meant by “Digital Government services?” (previously called “e-Government” services)
FedRAMP (what it is, how agencies use FedRAMP to deliver Digital Services, and how FedRAMP contributes to improved security for Digital Services)
Additional strategies for improving privacy and security (Play #11) from the Federal CIO Council’s Digital Services Playbook (“Manage security and privacy through reusable processes”) — make sure that you address the “Checklist” and “Key Questions”
Provide in-text citations and references for 3 or more authoritative sources. Put the reference list at the end of your posting.

Phase 2 project on stc (Saudi telecom company)


2) This is a team of 3 students /project. You may discuss the work with other students. You may “Work in parallel”, but all submitted work have to be under the Team Name. No copied diagrams! No copied Sentences. Use your own words. Violations will be severe.

In this report you will design and implement an enterprise architecture solution. From your reading in the annotated bibliography or other EA related readings in the literature (e.g. Resources in scholar.google.com) implement a solution.

A local real case needs to be selected, analyzed for its issues and problems and a suitable EA solution should be selected from the literature. In this business case you need to show your mastery of the selected EA solution by reading about the framework from the literature and having deeper understanding of the material. E.g. let us assume, you decided based on your analysis of the case that TOGAF was suitable solution for the problem. You must read about TOGAF and implement it as the best a solution to your case. So you will do many changes of the organization you are analyzing based on TOGAF framework with a link to the literature.

Criteria
Analysis of the organization: How logical and deep is the analysis. Was the real problems found or not? Business analysis tools could be used such as SWOT, PERT, PESTLE, use cases and core competencies analysis. Also I would consider technical understanding as an important tool in this analysis. Any other tools would be important ( /3 ) Linking with the material and literature: Show a high level of understanding of the material and literature. Also, how well were you able to link your case with it? ( /3 ) Organization: Appropriate use of referencing especially in text citations and bibliography. The overall look, organizations and easiness of reading of your report. For example suitable usage of vocabulary, grammar and structure. ( /2 ) Suitability of the EA practices: Is the chosen practices realistic and suitable? ( /2 )
Implementation of the EA solution: To what level were you able to understand the EA framework? How deeply is the solution described within the context of the organization? Are you going to modify the framework to be more applicable (why) or will you adopt the model exactly as it is? EA is about comprehensiveness, was the solution applied and described holistically? Remember that in your solution in text citations is very important ( /10) Remember your business case should be well argued and logical. You need to provide a description of the case, its problems, and your solution with related in text citation and why did you select this solution and finally and most importantly a description on how the organization will become after you implement the EA framework.
