Boys Will Be Boys
This scenario takes place at a college campus among a group of student employees. We take a look at the interaction among a few employees and the proper approach to take when the behavior of some employees is deemed inappropriate by another employee.

You are a student employee who overhears conversations among your coworkers. While on break, two of your male coworkers usually go off by themselves and smoke a cigarette. These recently hired coworkers are in their first semester and have just graduated from high school. Sometimes you overhear bits and pieces of their conversations. You are concerned that they regularly have conversations that are inappropriate for the workplace. You have overheard these coworkers making crude sexual references about other employees, telling sexist jokes, and sharing images and graphics of a sexist nature on their cell phones. You seek advice on how to handle the situation from others at your workplace.

You need to decide if you want to file a formal complaint. If you do, the matter will be investigated. If what you say can be substantiated then the young men will be reprimanded. That usually results in their employment being terminated and their student loans/financial aid may be in put in jeopardy.

Shirley Wright
Manager of Student Employees

I don’t care what your boss says; this is inappropriate behavior for the workplace, even if they are on break. They should learn to stop this kind of behavior before they graduate. It’s the sort of thing that could get you fired in the real world. If I were you, I would, informally, have a word with them and tell them that I was offended. Once they have been informed that they offended someone, they may decide to change their behavior on their own.
Ron DesVue
30-year-old veteran, student and classmate

Hey, you got a smart phone, don’t you? First thing I’d do is record their conversation on my phone. Don’t let them know you’re recording it. The next time they have one of those conversations tell them that you find it offensive and ask them to stop it. If they refuse or give you a hard time, tell them that you have a recording of their sexist comments and you’ll take it to the boss. They don’t need to know how the boss feels; the threat should be good enough to get them to stop, at least when you are around.

Hugh Jim Bissell
Close friend since high school and current classmate

Let’s not turn this into a federal case. I’d say as long as they’re having these conversations in private, among themselves then it’s not any of your business. After all, boys will be boys. These are young, single men, and this is a way that they bond, work out frustrations, and blow off steam. Look, it’s not like they’re making racist remarks. In that case, I definitely go straight to the boss, even higher up the chain of command, if I needed to. After all, who hasn’t told a dirty joke now and then? As long as they keep it on the down low, it’s no big deal.

Frieda Choose
Close friend and classmate

This assignment covers CO 6 in terms of interaction among groups and CO 4 in terms of the meaning of culture within society.
In a 500-word (minimum) essay, using the concepts that you learned from this week’s readings analyze the different ways that sexist behavior is handled in the formal and informal bureaucracy. The following questions should answered in the essay.
The following questions should be answered in the essay.
• Does Shirley Wright’s comment make you more or less likely to file a formal complaint? Do you agree with the likely punishment? If not, what alternative punishment would you suggest?
• Do you agree with Ron DesVue’s perspective where he says you should speak to the individuals? Why or why not?
• Do you agree or disagree with Hugh Jim Bissell on using your smart phone to make a recording? Why or why not?
• Should you take Frieda Choose’s advice that “boys will be boys,” and that there is a general expectation that men will occasionally behave badly, and so long as the behavior is kept between privately, it should be ignored? Why do you think she distinguishes between sexist remarks and racist remarks? Explain your answer.
• Is there a problem with the organization in the scenario above? If so, what should be done to provide a long-term solution to the problem?

How can the Three Cs be Implemented together with Strategy?

Please have a read through the information provided below and answer the question with relevant references.

Having carried out thorough research I realized that the organizational leaders’ areas of interest among other priorities is Strategy. But devising a way

of implementing this strategy throughout the business organization becomes the problem. A small group of people who are well-trained often create various

strategies that are of the best, alas the organizations’ leaders often fail in its implementation. So to successfully execute an organization’s strategy,

it must be the general consent of everybody in the organization in order to successfully implement the organization’s strategies, the three Cs can be of

great importance, they are:

> Clarify the strategy: Organizational strategies are high-level statements that are reverberating with executive levels and as well as the board which are

also flop with the front line together with the mid-level personnel. Because if the people fail to understand the strategy they will not be able to operate

it, so clarifying the business organization’s strategy to people will ease their simple understanding of the strategy. Avoid corporate speaking, which hide

the true meaning and understanding of the strategy implementation (Kelleher H.).

> Communicate the strategy: Communication is the second C. And this communication is the essence of the strategy at every level of the organization

utilizing various channels which is a key, which means should not rely on posters only for communicating the purpose of the strategy as there are some

message boards, podcasts and brown bag luncheons which are of great importance to aid in communicating what the strategy is all about.

> Cascade the business strategy: Is not just about creating strategy, but how to implement them as well, this can be done through cascading the strategy

from all levels of the organization by involving its managers to help in getting every level in translating the strategy elements of the organization.

Hopefully, your English Composition I instructor emphasized the significance of being an active reader and the value of
reading every day. Good writers are also avid readers. Their appreciation of reading has, in turn, helped them establish an
understanding of the way sentences and paragraphs work together, reinforce good spelling skills, and increase their
knowledge base with important and relevant information as well as trivial details.
Pages 9 – 13 of your Rereading America textbook provides an overview of the value of active reading. Likewise, pages 95
106 of The Everyday Writer emphasize the crucial steps in the process of critical reading.
Review the Overview of the Evaluation Essay document at the bottom of this folder, once again, if necessary. Then,
please read the article you have selected that somehow relates to the two films or videos you chose in assignments 1,#2
and 1 #3 last week. (Please note that you don’t have to necessarily cite this article in your upcoming papernyou can
choose another article online if you find one that is more relevant). Highlight key passages, circle and look up words you
don’t know, make notes in the margins. Then, answer the following questions:
1. Who is the author? What authority does he or she have to write this article?
2. What appears to be the thesis of the article. Please surround this sentence in direct quotations.
3. Identify three significant points the author makes about the subject?
4. Identify a piece of credible supporting evidence the author identifies to support at least one of these points: a statistic,
testimony from an expert, a compelling example, for instance.
5. Do you agree or disagree with the points the author is making? Why or why not?

page evaluation essay?
8. Provide a work-cited entry for this essay using model #11 for an anthology on page 540 of The Everyday Writer.

If analysis is the WHAT, then design is the HOW. Describe how you will develop, test, and implement your proposed solution. It is time you

got technical (i.e. mention the underlying technologies, tools, and techniques). Different project types often have different visual design

elements. For example, a networking project may include the network diagram. An application development project may include an ERD. And so on.
Remember this: if you give the design specifications document to the developer, they would know exactly what to do and how.
Additional useful elements, when applicable, include: screenshots of design elements (e.g. GUI).
Development
Think of the development as the work needed to produce your proposed solution or product. Examples: programming for software projects;

scanning and exploiting (testing) for penetration testing projects; interviewing and conducting surveys for ISO implementation projects; and so on.
Write at least 500 words that thoroughly explain your work in the development phase. This section must include the development tools you selected,

along with your rationale; a discussion of the specific tools (programming language, database, network configuration) used in the development. All

outputs of the design phase should be properly utilized as inputs for the development phase. Include code or configuration files that are created

while development of the proposed system.
Different project types may have different development approaches. Discuss this with your project mentor.
