use the quadruple constraint model of systems management to identify potential issues that could be factors in deciding whether you should proceed with your idea to develop an application for recreational athletics at your company.

Assignment:

You have been part of your company’s Information Technology Department for three years. You have learned a lot about the company and about many new technologies in your latest assignment—developing applications for your corporate intranet.

Since you are an avid recreational athlete, you have spent a fair amount of time thinking about how you would write a sophisticated application to help people learn about the many corporate athletic teams, register on the intranet, determine team schedules, post team statistics, and so on. You have heard some rumors about profits not being as high as expected in the past year, and you know that mostly the junior employees participate on the athletic teams.

· Part 1. Using Figure 1.7 as a guide, use the quadruple constraint model of systems management to identify potential issues that could be factors in deciding whether you should proceed with your idea to develop an application for recreational athletics at your company. Include at least three questions for each sphere.

· Part 2: Your immediate supervisor likes your idea of developing a recreational sports application on the intranet, but he has to convince his supervisor that this project is valuable to the company. Prepare a short presentation with five to ten slides and speaker notes to convince top management to approve the recreational athletics application project. Be sure to list benefits of the project and suggest a phased approach. For example, the first phase might involve just posting information about various sports teams on the intranet. The second phase might include on-line registration, and so on.

What are some ways that each theory is compatible and incompatible with Christian concepts?

Please create a new thread to respond to the follow questions. Then reply to one classmate’s post.

  1. How are the theories similar and different?
  2. What are some strengths and limitations of each theory?
  3. What are some ways that each theory is compatible and incompatible with Christian concepts? (Use Tan textbook)
  4. Based on each theory’s concept of psychopathology, discuss any limitations as far as creating measurable outcomes for clients. (Use Switzer and Rubin textbook to help with case conceptualization prior to discussing measurable outcomes)

*(Hint: While you will use the Corey book to help understand the theories, it is helpful to use the Switzer and Rubin textbook to guide case conceptualization; using this can help to understand measurable outcomes in prompt four. The Tan book is helpful for question three, regarding compatibility with Christian concepts).
