/in /by

Slick Systems, referred to as “SLIC,” has hired you as an IT consultant for their Windows network services infrastructure. SLIC is a new advertising firm. They have hired staff, are established in two locations, and have a need to get their internal IT services configured. They have an IT staff, but they do not have the in-house expertise to address their current infrastructure needs.

You are required to supply SLIC with a solution which addresses the integration and configuration of their Active Directory updates.  Cost is not a significant concern – SLIC wishes to implement the “right” solution to address their acquisition of a new company and its Active Directory forest which is comprised of a single domain.  More specifically, SLIC is based out of Chicago, IL and they have a Windows Server 2016 domain that is operating at the Windows Server 2016 functional level.  They recently acquired New Age Cinema Group which is based out of Baltimore, MD, which has a domain running Windows Server 2012 domain controllers.

Active Directory Infrastructure

  • Describe features of Windows Server 2016 that will allow SLIC to integrate the newly acquired company’s domain into their existing forest.
  • How will Forest Functional Levels be implemented?
  • How will cross-forest trusts be implemented?
  • How will replication be handled?

  • Will AD Certificate Services used in both domains need to be modified?

  • What use of AD Rights Management Services can be implemented?

Active Directory:

  • Where should the domain controllers be place? Should RODC be part of the consideration?
  • FSMO Roles placement
  • Plan for AD backup and recovery

Group Policy:

  • Is Group Policy needed?
  • What settings might be considered via Group Policy?

Write a 1,200-word paper about how Long/Short Term Orientation and Indulgence/Restraint affect you relating with people in another culture of your choice

/in /by

Write a 1,200-word paper about how Long/Short Term Orientation and Indulgence/Restraint affect you relating with people in another culture of your choice . Discuss how the cultural differences affect communication, motivation, and teamwork. Use the culture that you chose to study throughout the course. In addition to Hofstede et al. (2010), use the Bible, and cite at least two other sources that support your discussion from the SEU library Cross Cultural Leadership Lib Guide. Many of these are e-books if you are not local. Include a short introduction and conclusion to the paper and a reference page. I highly recommend the country specific Culture Smart books. Use APA citations. See grading rubric.

Use the Hofstede Insights website software to compare the United States to another culture in all six dimensions. Graph the cultural dimensions using the software. Use a screen shot and post the picture to your document.
The culture should be a country that you plan to study throughout the course. Choose a culture that you have interest. It could be a place where you have visited, lived, or worked. It could be from your cultural heritage. Or it could be a place you plan or want to go to in the future. You will use this same country in all your papers. Make sure the country is one that Hofstede covers. If not, see me about some possible alternatives.
Describe the differences or similarities between the United States and your chosen country for the LTO and IVR dimensions. Are your chosen country and the US high, low, or near the middle? I like to think of them in quintiles: very high, moderately high, middle, moderately low, and very low.
Using the tables in the Hofstede et al. (2010) chapters, find six specific things that might affect communication, motivation, and teamwork. One item for each area per cultural dimension. How would you promote the similarities or mitigate the differences?

In less than 600 words, you are to write a memo to the CEO of your hospital. Identify each opportunity during Mr. Roberts’ time within your hospital where consent may have been obtained and whether that consent was implied or express and if express what type of express consent.

You also need to identify whether the consent was appropriately obtained, including why or why not. Lastly, you should provide your opinion regarding whether Mr. Roberts (or his guardian or heirs) has a possible claim against the hospital for permanent injuries and how that claim arises (for example an intentional tort and/or negligence).
