Business/Organization Profile and Analysis

The Critical Thinking assignments in this course build upon each other to help you complete the final Portfolio Project, an instructional design blueprint for a business or organization. In this step, you will research and select the business or organization you plan to use in your Portfolio Project.

Ideally, you will select a real business or organization because this will provide you with the opportunity to solve real-world problems and practice dealing with the complexities of organizations that grow and change in response to multifaceted issues. This step may require additional research to ensure that you can obtain all the information needed to complete the profile.

Complete the sections for Module 2 in the Portfolio Project template (linked below) which detail the following information:

  • Name the proposed design model (you named one in your Module 1 Critical Thinking assignment; you can use that one or a different one if you have changed your mind based on instructor feedback or new research).
  • Determine the business/organization you want to build your instructional design blueprint (see Portfolio Project) for. In order to make your learning as meaningful and real-world as possible, your business/organization should be a real one. However, if this is not possible, you can create an imaginary one.
  • Provide a brief business/organization profile and analysis that includes the following:
    • Name of business/organization
    • Business strategy (mission, values, and goals)
    • Business drivers
    • Organizational culture
    • Environmental factors affecting the organization.

After completing these parts of the template, indicate why the instructional design model you selected aligns well with this organization. If you have decided to change your mind from your original plan in Module 1, fill in the new model you plan to use and complete this section as outlined above.

Remember, this is not an opinion piece but a scholarly work supported with credible references and sources from your research.

What are your religious, moral, and/or personal values regarding relationships and sex?

/in /by

 

In a 1-2 page Word document, answer each of the following questions with your own personal opinions. References are not necessary and your faculty member will be the only person to have access to your responses.

Please Answer ALL Questions or You Will Loose Points.

  1. What are your religious, moral, and/or personal values regarding relationships and sex? When do you think it is right to start having sexual relationships–under what circumstances and with whom? Where do you think your ideas come from? Do you feel comfortable describing your values to others? 
  2. Would you like to be involved in a long-term relationship someday? If so, when? If you are currently involved in such a relationship, is it something that you always imagined you would have?
  3. Do you want to have children? If so, when and how many? How would you feel if you found out you couldn’t have children? 
  4. What are your major priorities and goals at this time? How would a sexual relationship fit in with these priorities and goals? Would it help you achieve your goals, detract from your efforts, or have no real effect? 
  5. How does your current sexual behavior fit in with your values and life plan? How does that make you feel? If you are currently acting in any way that is counter to your values or goals, consider why that is so? Have you just not thought about how your current behavior could affect your future? Or are you feeling pressure from yourself, your partner, or some other source?

The practice wants to maintain its good standing in the community. What initiatives could it undertake to remain connected to its local patient population?

/in /by

A growing, profitable internal medicine practice of 10 physicians, 2 physician assistants, a physical therapist, and a massage therapist is located in a city of 150,000 people. The clinical personnel are mostly from the majority group in the area and consider themselves open-minded, altruistic, and culturally aware. The administrative support staff is representative of the makeup of the patient population—mostly minority groups in the local community. The patient population is growing and becoming more diverse from those newly arrived in the city. The practice is currently facing several challenges.

DISCUSSION QUESTIONS

1. The practice manager wants to have the local hospital expert on cultural competency come talk to the staff. The administrative support staff does not feel that they need training. How should the practice manager proceed?

 2. The practice needs to hire a new administrative assistant to work with the front desk staff. The practice wishes to hire someone from the local minority community rather than an equally qualified individual from another state. How should the practice manager proceed? Justify the rationale for this recommendation.

 3. With the recent growth, the practice is considering relocating its office to another, larger office facility. Several options are being discussed. Should they relocate to a more affluent area of the city that is less diverse? Or should they stay in the same neighborhood, even if it is less profitable? What are the pros and cons of staying in this neighborhood versus moving to another area? If the rent is higher in the more diverse area, is that enough to justify not moving there? Or is diversity responsiveness a “cost of doing business?” How should the practice manager proceed?

4. The practice wants to maintain its good standing in the community. What initiatives could it undertake to remain connected to its local patient population?

5. The practice manager wants to complete a strategic plan as a guiding framework for the organization for the next five years. From whom should she get input to help shape this plan? Should cultural competency initiatives be included in this plan?
