select a particular child or adolescent with a disruptive behavior

A child’s or adolescent’s disruptive behaviors can be challenging for a clinician. Disruptive behaviors can interrupt the counseling process, and they often signify the existence of emotions a child or adolescent is unable to express verbally. Some prospective child and adolescent clinicians may be ill-equipped to manage disruptive behaviors or recognize that the behaviors are symptomatic of an issue or disorder. This lack of knowledge may elicit a nontherapeutic response from a clinician, which can damage the development of a therapeutic relationship. A therapeutic relationship is vital in order to counsel children and adolescents effectively.

To prepare for this Assignment, review the Disruptive Behaviors Part Two media and select a particular child or adolescent with a disruptive behavior. Consider one strength and one weakness of the therapeutic relationship with the child or adolescent during the counseling sessions.

The Assignment (3–5 pages) is in two parts:

Part One: Ineffective Interventions

  • Identify the less effective counseling session you selected, and explain why it was less effective.
  • Identify and explain the intent of the target goal in the counseling session.
  • Explain one ineffective aspect of the counseling approach and why.
  • Explain one misstep the counselor made that inhibited the development of a therapeutic relationship and why.

Part Two: Effective Interventions

  • Identify the more effective counseling session you selected, and explain why it was more effective.
  • Explain one intended goal the counselor was attempting to accomplish in the counseling approach and why.
  • Explain one ineffective aspect of the counseling approach and why.
  • Explain two critical skills the counselor demonstrated that promoted the development of a therapeutic relationship and how those critical skills were used.

Support your Assignment with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are asked to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the week’s resources for this course.

media Disruptive Behaviors

For this Discussion, review each of the clips in the media Disruptive Behaviors Part One and think about your reactions to the behavior exhibited in the media. Select one particular child or adolescent in the media and think about how your reactions to that child’s or adolescent’s behavior might impact a therapeutic relationship with that child or adolescent. Also, consider how you might transform any negative reactions you may have to the child or adolescent you selected to an appropriate therapeutic response.

With these thoughts in mind:

Post a brief description of the disruptive behavior you selected, and explain one way your reactions might positively or negatively influence the development of a therapeutic relationship with that child or adolescent. Then, explain one way you might transform a negative reaction into an appropriate therapeutic response and how. Be specific and use examples.

Be sure to support your postings and responses with specific references to the week’s resources.

Evaluate platforms for their capability to meet each employee at their respective stage of the life cycle and level of expertise.

Introduction

HR professionals are often asked to consider software platforms that provide an effective approach to support different aspects of the employee life cycle. In this assignment, you are being asked to evaluate a platform you search for, identify, and recommend for purchase by CapraTek. The platform should have some or most of the following capabilities: capable of performing recruiting, onboarding, tracking training and education requirements, and identifying internal career pathways.

In this assignment, you select criteria from one of the two articles provided to determine the effectiveness of an HR platform. The intent is for the platform is to be able to meet as many of the demands for managing the employee life cycle as possible. Keep in mind that the thrust of this assignment is not about the actual tool but the content, or better said – can the software you recommend help an organization effectively manage Gallup’s employee life cycle in the organization? Also keep in mind that you may have to recommend more than one platform for all the functions that are included, and it is also possible some capabilities may simply not be available.

Scenario

Dr. Thompson has asked your HR team at CapraTek an essential question, “how do we attract and keep scientists instead of losing good people to our competitors?” The organization has been losing junior and senior scientists at a steady rate, and no one really understands why this is happening. The HR team has been engaged in learning the employee life cycle and collecting information about employee needs via engagement research. Now it is time to select a technology platform that will meet those needs from onboarding to helpful recognition processes that continue to make employees feel successful in their work throughout their tenure at the company.

Purchasing the Gallup suite of tools is not on the table due to the huge cost of implementation for a medium-sized regional company like CapraTek.

Your Challenge

As an HR team member, you have been assigned this task that has come at Dr. Thompson’s request. Research HR platforms so that you can help to select the best tool to adopt for the employees’ needs at CapraTek.

Instructions

1. Read the following articles and select the 4–6 appropriate criteria to evaluate the HR platforms you will research.

This resource helps you to understand the components or criteria that should be part of an HR platform solution so that you can research platforms to find one that suits the needs of CapraTek.

2. Select and research as many HR platforms/tools that are capable of performing recruiting, onboarding, tracking training and education requirements, and identifying internal career pathways as you can.

  • Options for HR platforms of this type are available in industry literature and the marketplace.

3. Write a 3–4-page internal memo about your recommended platform and evaluate it against the criteria from the provided articles. Does it meet the needs of employees at each stage of the employee life cycle and meet the organization’s needs for all of the capabilities? Include the following in your internal memo:

  • To, From, Internal Memo: Select HR Platform, Date.
    • Follow a format similar to a normal paper, including an introduction, conclusion, and the following elements:
    • Explain the 4–6 criteria you selected to evaluate the tools from one or both articles listed in this assignment.
    • Evaluate platforms for their capability to meet each employee at their respective stage of the life cycle and level of expertise.
    • Evaluate platforms for their capability to meet the organization’s needs for recruiting, onboarding, tracking training and education requirements, and identifying internal career pathways.
    • Select the most appropriate tool(s) to recommend for adoption by leadership.

explain the process of organizational change

There are many different models that are used to explain the process of organizational

change. As a leader, your perspective on how the organization changes can impact the

success of the change. You must remember that for an organization to make a change,

individuals within the organization must transition from their current behavior to a new

behavior. As a leader, your job is to help them understand why they need to change and how

they can change.

With this in mind, we are going to explore the issues associated with culture and leading

organizational change.

 Choose a change that you would like to lead in your current organization or in another

organization that you are involved with.

 Describe the change and why you think it needs to change.

 Which model of organizational change would help you to move forward with this

change?

 What challenges would you face at the individual and team level?

 What guidelines would you combine with the model of organizational change you

have chosen to successfully lead this change?

 How would you take steps to create a culture that embraces change?

Instructions to Learners

Locate and research at least two sources to discover additional information about your topic

choice.  Use your text to create a foundation for the theory.  This must be a concise

evaluation of the case, so provide information on your understanding of the application of

theory to the marketing choices.

Develop your analysis using the four following sections:

Section 1: Introduction and situational analysis: Describe the change model(s) giving

appropriate background information, that you would incorporate into a change initiative.

This is also where you do your situational analysis – identifying factors related to the

individual(s) involved (consider the readings from this module), company and managerial

practices and policies, external factors such as economic pressure, and any other aspects of the situation that you believe helped create the current situation and affect the leader’s

perspective.

Section 2: Analysis using change theory: Consider the theories that are appropriate in the

chapters assigned to this module. Use those theories to analyze the situation you have

defined and create a clear foundation for your view of the situation. Your opinions are

important and useful, but not sufficient to make a case for a specific course of action. The

theory, models, and concepts that you find in your readings are what you must use to create

a valid argument for your suggested course of action.

Section 3: Conclusion and recommendations. Up to now, you have been analyzing and

comparing options.  Here is where you pull together the different threads of your analysis

and determine a course of action.  Also, make recommendations about what the company

should do in the future.  Make sure your justifications clearly flow from your analysis.  Make

managerial and policy recommendations for future change endeavors.

Section 4: References. List at least two sources (in addition to the sources provided in the

module and your text) where you located additional information to support your views.

General guidance: Include a title page, and label the four sections. Your paper should be 2-4

pages in length, not including the title and reference pages.  All citations should be in APA 6th or 7th

Edition format.  Double space your paper, use Times New Roman, 12-point font, with one

inch margins.

Case Study 3: An Inconvenient HR Challenge

As the hospital administrator for Forest Glenn Medical Center, you oversee human

resources functions for the medical center. Recently, within the outpatient medical team,

three of the five doctors have submitted resignation letters effective immediately. You

recognize that this presents a big problem because the outpatient medical team is a

high-performance area in the medical center and cannot function with two full-time

physicians alone. You immediately organize a meeting with the director of the outpatient

medical team, Dr. Caron, to determine why these physicians are so determined to

resign immediately.

You meet with Dr. Caron and he states that he is just as surprised as you are that three

of his team members have decided to leave suddenly. He is at a complete loss as to

why they have decided to leave. After meeting with Dr. Caron, you decide to set up

individual meetings with the three physicians, Dr. Lowe, Dr. Howell, and Dr. Cardenas,

to process and discuss their resignations.

Upon meeting with Dr. Lowe and his purpose for resigning, he states, “I just could not

continue working for a tyrannical leader like Dr. Caron. While I love providing care to our

patients and working for Forest Glenn, I cannot live up to the standards that Dr. Caron

wants. Nor does he even let me try.” You decide to delve a little deeper into this

complaint and mention to Dr. Lowe that there is a process in place to submit complaints

for a hostile work environment. He states that he did not want to get anyone in trouble,

and that he would rather find employment elsewhere.

You then meet with Dr. Howell and Dr. Cardenas, who appear to corroborate with Dr.

Lowe’s reasoning on resigning from Forest Glenn. You approach them with the

possibility of talking to Dr. Caron about these complaints and whether they would be

willing to stay while you search for suitable replacements if the hostile work environment

is alleviated. Both Dr. Howell and Cardenas agree that they would be willing to stay for

two months while you address the issues with Dr. Caron in the outpatient medical team.

You immediately schedule a meeting with Dr. Caron to discuss the complaints and to

initiate necessary steps for the establishment of a productive and effective work

environment.

community-based resources that assist with addressing the primary needs of the two client populations

Instructions:

Human Services Professionals are charged with understanding client needs at individual levels and much more complex levels. Addressing client needs involves being able to understand the resources that are available as well. Though we work independently and under supervision, we work in concert with our colleagues and with other programs and services within the community. Utilizing diverse skillsets allow an agency/organization to offer a broader and more adaptable range of products and services. Diverse teams are more productive, perform better, and provide the opportunity for continued education and professional growth.

For the Module 05 Written assignment, you are going to develop a three-page paper in which you will address the following four steps:

Step 1: Identify two different client populations. Examples of client populations are as such:

  • Clients Identifying as Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgendered,
  • Clients with a Physical Impairment
  • Clients with Mental Health Diagnosis(es)
  • Clients who are Elderly
  • Children and Adolescents
  • Clients Identifying with an Ethnic Group
  • Clients Identifying with a Religious or Spiritual Group

Step 2: With the two client populations that you have indicated, identify 3-5 primary needs associated with many persons with this population.

Step 3: Develop a hypothetical scenario for both populations that you have chosen. Be certain that you provide specifics into the problem with both hypothetical scenarios.

Step 4: Identify specific community-based resources that assist with addressing the primary needs of the two client populations and the problems associated with the scenarios that you have developed. Conduct a search of local resources within your local community and national resources and provide detailed commentary specific to these identified resources.

APA Requirement: Please ensure that you meet the page length requirement and that your paper is double-spaced throughout. Also, please ensure that you have cited all facts throughout your work with parenthetical in-text citations and that you have a Reference Page at the end of your work.
