Unit 1 Discussion Board 2 Being the Leader

You will first meet with the CEOs of each organization, Theresa Tramlin and Mike Miller, to help them understand their important leadership roles for the success of the merger.

The merger is a significant change for both organizations; there is growing anxiety and uncertainty among the employees of both organizations. The goal is to complete the merger in a way that maintains employee performance and allegiance to the merged organization. Both CEOs were promoted from managerial positions, so one of your tasks is to help them understand how to distinguish the two roles.

Please discuss the following with your classmates:

In your opinion, what is the difference between being a manager and being a leader?
Read research findings by Kabacoff (1998) that, although men and women are perceived as equally effective in leading, women tend to focus more on production, attaining results, and people, while men tend to focus on strategic planning, organization vision, and business tasks.
Considering this, in your opinion, which leadership theory or style will be effective when leading the merger and why?

Discussion Question

Explain the importance of performing a quality literature review in evidence-based practice Based on your previous PICOT question, preform a literature search identifying key terms, Boolean operators, and search criteria i.e., full text gender, publication dates, etc. Choose 1 article from the CINAHL data base and 1 from either Google Scholar, PubMed, Ebsco, or Pro Quest. Discuss your rationale for choosing each article and its relevance to your PICOT question. Next, determined which level of evidence your articles are classified as based on the article by Ingham-Broomfield (2016). Evaluate 2 classmates’ search strategies and the quality of each article in relation to their PICOT questions and relevance to current nursing practices.

“International and Comparative Law” in Dynamic Business Law.

Review the scenario and complete the activity below. This scenario can also be found in the “Questions & Problems” section of Ch. 6, “International and Comparative Law” in Dynamic Business Law.

In an interview published by The New York Times in February 1976, former Lockheed President A. Carl Kotchian defended the payment of bribes by the company as follows:

“Some call it gratuities. Some call them questionable payments. Some call it extortion. Some call it grease. Some call it bribery. I look at these payments as necessary to sell a product. I never felt I was doing anything wrong.”

More than 30 years later, Reinhard Siekaczek, an accountant employed by Siemens who oversaw an annual budget for questionable payments in excess of $50 million, stated:

“I never thought I would go to jail for my company. …We thought we had to do it. Otherwise, we would ruin the company. …People will only say about Siemens that they were unlucky and that they broke the Eleventh Commandment. The Eleventh Commandment is, ‘Don’t get caught.’”

Strategic Management

Prepare and present a report and contribute to a discussion that demonstrates mastery of the course material and its relevance to your academic specialization. Report should analyze why a tool(s) is used in all member specializations, why a tool(s) is not, and the benefit of adopting such tools. Reporting is at the level of member specializations rather than the organizational level of prior assignments. Final reports must not discuss the importance of strategic management in general and must include a composite table (created from member tables) depicting member specializations and tools used.

Members will prepare and share with their team a brief (maximum 500 – 750 word) report that examines whether, how, and why strategic management is/could/should be relevant and important for the specialization they have pursued in this degree program. Members shall mark-up and submit the attached table along with their report.
The team will then analyze the member reports and table, searching for patterns (similarities and differences between and across specializations) and evaluating their broader implications for successful implementation of strategy and strategic decision making. Faculty will follow and contribute to this team analysis and discussion.

Teams will prepare a brief (maximum 1,000 word) final synopsis of findings and conclusions and post it as a new thread in the team’s study group by Sunday of the last week of class (Week 12). Teams will also share a copy of the final synopsis in an all-class discussion area so everyone can benefit from the small group findings and analysis.
All members are expected to demonstrate effective team skills and must contribute actively, substantively, and in a timely manner to all components of this assignment.
