Managing Team Challenges as a Leader
The challenge for this chapter presents a case of a manager who must implement several unpopular changes that he/she does not agree with and that comes on the heels of other recent changes. There has been no input into the change and it is implemented top-down. None of the recommended processes for successful change in this chapter have been implemented. There has not been a period of unfreezing, although some of the changes may be appropriate, and there was little freezing last time the change was announced.
The case is relatively typical of what mid-level leaders face in many organizations. They are charged with putting in places changes without much warning or
input. Imagine you are the manager in this situation.
1. Describe two (2) ways that you could you approach the team.
2. How much of your personal feeling should you share? Provide one (1) supporting fact to justify your position.
3. Describe four (4) key actions that you should take.
Bowen Family Therapy Model Presentation
Bowen Family Systems Theory provides a detailed set of concepts that are commonly assessed through family interviews, often in conjunction with the creation of a genogram. For this assignment, write a case analysis of your own family of origin using a Bowen approach. Exclude or disguise information you do not wish to share. Then, use the following outline for your analysis:
Introduce the Bowen model and discuss how the model is systemic.
Create a genogram of your family of origin, using the correct format. Please use paper and pencil to draw your genogram. After you finish, scan or take a picture with your phone or other handheld devices of the image and upload it as part of your submission for this assignment. Please be mindful that your drawing must be professional and clear to enable your professor to read and understand your submission. Depict at least three generations (more if you wish to), including you, your parents, and your grandparents (as well as aunts, uncles, and cousins as applicable to complete the assignment). Include information on cultural factors such as race, ethnicity, religion, and social class and demographic information such as age, geographic location of residence, jobs held,
etc. You will also include information about the quality of relationships (including divorces, extra-marital affairs, etc.), any mental health or addiction issues, any applicable medical concerns, or any other information you wish to include.
Use this genogram to begin your paper by providing a brief overview of the major experiences and patterns of interaction for your family. How do diversity issues affect the family dynamics?
Write a description of your family in terms of the major concepts of the Bowen approach. This is not a family history, but rather a description that emphasizes analysis of relationships from a Bowenian perspective. Briefly define each concept and then provide an illustration of each concept from your
family of origin.
Triangles/Triangulation
Differentiation of Self
Nuclear Family Emotional System
Family Projection Process
Multigenerational Transmission Process
Emotional Cutoff
Sibling Position
Societal Emotional Process
Identify and then briefly discuss a problem in the family using Bowen’s theory. This “problem” should involve you directly; it should be real, meaningful, not too
big, and something that you are willing to share. Develop a specific intervention plan for this problem based on the Bowenian approach. Make this a very
practical, small intervention. You may or may not choose to try it. In Bowenian terms, describe how you think it would affect the dynamics of your family if
you did implement this intervention.
Length: 6-8 pages, not including title and reference pages

Social Problem, Impact on Society, and Policy
To prepare for your Final Paper (due in Week 8), you will develop an outline, using the sample below, that includes an abstract, problem statement, and annotated bibliography.
Problem Statement: Evaluate a social problem and how it impacts a social institution (e.g., criminal justice system) in the United States. For purposes of this assignment, the social problem must impact society and not only individuals or a subgroup of individuals.
Outline: Using the sample below as a guide, provide an outline for your Final Paper. Remember that papers are expected to define a significant problem faced by a social institution, describe the scope and consequences of the problem, and discuss society’s responses to the problem (including public policies and other less formal responses). Your paper should also present a clearly reasoned alternative, supported by scholarly research.
Annotated Bibliography: The purpose of creating a list of sources is to assist you in organizing and evaluating your research.
In your paper,
Identify the problem. Be sure to narrow your problem enough to allow a focused examination.
Describe the individual, social, and criminal justice system implications of this problem. Discussion of implications should be supported by accurate research data.
Summarize what experts say about the problem.
Explain what we, as a society, have done to remedy this problem. Consider public policies and other, less formal responses.
Analyze to what extent public policies and other, less formal responses are effective in addressing this problem.
Propose an alternative solution to the problem.
Analyze why the alternative is, or can be, an effective response to the problem. Remember to consider negative consequences of the alternative response.
Conclude with your thoughts about your chosen social problem. This is a good place to include personal opinions, assuming you wish to share them in a research paper.
Create an annotated bibliography. In the bibliography, include the following:
Name of the source, including the complete bibliographic reference in proper APA format.
Summary of the source (at least one paragraph) including how this source will contribute to your paper.
In short, define a problem, discuss the response, and provide alternative responses to the problem. For example, your problem could be drug use and abuse, with a focus on prescription drug abuse among teenagers. Your description of the problems should be fact based, relying on experts and research. Your alternative can be an adjustment of current policy or a new direction. For example, you may propose longer prison sentences, or legalization of all drugs. Be creative, although suggestions must be supported by scholarly research.
The Final Paper Preparation outline

Analyzing Economic Crises
- Consider an economy with only two capitalist enterprises. Assume that enterprise A advances weekly constant capital of $200 and weekly variable capital of $100. Enterprise B advances weekly constant capital of $100 and weekly variable capital of $200. In addition, assume that enterprise A has a turnover time of 4 weeks and enterprise B has a turnover time of 8 weeks. Calculate the annual rate of profit and the annual rate of surplus-value assuming the weekly rate of surplus-value is 100% for both enterprises and that each year has 52 weeks.
How do the annual rates of profit compare? Is this result surprising? Explain the result with reference to the organic compositions of capital and to the turnover times of the two enterprises.
- Competition among capitalists in the international commodity markets has pushed down the prices of imported raw materials that are used in many domestic industries. What is the impact on the aggregate constant capital advanced? What is the impact on the annual general rate of profit?
- We have an economy with two major sectors: Sector I produces the means of production, and Sector II produces the means of consumption. The constant capital advanced in Sectors I and II are $20 billion and $30 billion, respectively. Assume that the variable capital advanced in Sectors I and II are $20 billion and $10 billion, respectively. Also assume that the rate of surplus-value is 100% in each sector. Is the economy balanced or will a macroeconomic crisis occur due to the un-coordination between the two sectors? Explain with reference to the numerical values in this example.
- There was a clear conflict of interest that arose for the credit rating agencies leading up to the financial crisis of 2008. What do you think is the best way to limit such conflicts of interest that might arise in financial markets?
- Use Post-Keynesian theory when considering this question. Suppose that workers reduce their savings. What will happen to capitalist profits and the degree of income inequality? To which phase of the business cycle does this change correspond? Is this change consistent with what you would expect to happen using the neoclassical synthesis model?

ublic Policy, Regulation, and Law in Technological Advancement
The term paper may address any topic relevant to the subject matter of the course “Advanced Technology: Public Policy, Regulation, and Law “.
The paper should be about ten pages and must include outside research.
Course Description:
The incredible pace of technological change during the past 25 years has presented enormous theoretical, practical and policy challenges for public policymakers, regulators and legal systems throughout the world. Technological disruption has forced these key stakeholders to grapple with rapidly changing conceptions of individual privacy, national security, intellectual property and copyright protection, cybersecurity, hacking and other technology-based criminal activity, and the nature and extent of government regulation.
This course will focus on cutting-edge issues in technology and public policy, regulation, and the law.
The coursework will build on that foundation and focus on the public policy, regulatory and legal aspects of 5G wireless technology (including smart cities and telemedicine), autonomous vehicles, drones, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, augmented reality, facial recognition, biometrics, Bitcoin, Blockchain and other cutting-edge, advanced technology platforms.
We will examine the emerging public policy, regulatory and legal responses to these advanced technologies in the United States, the European Union, and elsewhere.
We will discuss some of the key concepts involved in addressing advanced technology, such as regulation, privacy, and intellectual property. We will delve into several of the specific technologies themselves, to gain a deeper understanding of the public policy, regulatory and legal issues they present.
