Identification of the contemporary strategic thinking, decision making, and innovation problem to be addressed;3. A purpose statement;4. Significance of the issue under study;Research PaperStrategic thinking, decision making, and innovation have issues that currently face, the most outstanding issue is increasing the quality of leadership and development. Increasing the quality of leadership and management entails expanding the ability of employees or creating opportunities for employees to have leadership roles. This includes improving skills, abilities, and confidence of employees in an organization. According to Bolden, (2005) leadership development consist of several programs that are available to employees and organizations. The programs vary in relation to the style of training the complexity and the cost. Today, strategic thinking, decision making and innovation in organizations face increasing the quality of leadership and development as a major issue since they assume it to be costly. It is evident that most organization do not invest in training and developing employees since the management is not ready to spend an extra cost on training them. It is also assumed that a lot of time is spent on training rather than equating that time to working and be productive. This kind of mentality from seniors in an organization has impacted negatively on the strategic thinking, decision making and innovations in organizations since the employees do not feel to be part of the decision making the process of the organization thus experiencing low performance.According to Fielden, Davidson,& Sutherland, (2009). Coaching and training are the two major ways of leadership development. Coaching and mentoring has its own advantages to an organization. These include the retention of employees. When employees are coached and mentored they are able to feel a sense of commitment and belonging to the organization. Through coaching and mentoring employees are able to be efficient of how they handle activities at the workplace. And lastly, Personal development is also an advantage since trainees are able to gain knowledge and be aware of the current trending issues.The success of leadership development is influenced by the efforts put in by the management of the organization in terms of cost, consistency, support and also the ability of the trainee to understand and make use of what they have been trained. Increasing the quality of leadership has its own advantages and disadvantages. According to Bolden, (2005) most leadership pieces of training don?t necessarily produce leaders because the trainers mainly use theories, concepts, and principles for training but do not encourage practical learning. Leadership can mainly be learned but not taught. It is, therefore, necessary for seniors in an organization to act as examples to their juniors in case they are given leadership roles. The role of a good leader is to ensure the values and purpose of an organization are implemented, develop vision and strategy, and build a workable community. This kind of behavior requires good character, creativity, and compassion.It is therefore important for organizations to consider developing their employees in order to avoid facing the issue of low -quality leadership development.in conclusion, this kind of issue can greatly be avoided if the seniors of an organization are co-operative enough to ensure leadership development amongst the employees.

Social Networking Anti Virus Protection Discussion

reply to discussionThe current web browser I am using now is Google Chrome like many other people I heard about the security and efficiency of the program and decided to download it. I currently have Norton anti-virus protection on my laptop as well. My Norton has a safe web search option that turns my google chrome into a different web browser called “Safe Search” and allows me to go in the internet with my VPN protected and less danger of malware, spyware, etc. I also have internet explorer on my laptop but I never use it due to google chrome and safe search being more effective and safer. I could use the internet explorer if I wanted to due to the protection I get from my Norton anti-virus, but I decide  not to take the chance at introducing my laptop to any viruses. I feel that my laptop and web browsers are as secure as they can be at this time and I wouldn’t make any changes. If I didn’t have the protection of Norton that would be a different story, I would probably still stick to Google Chrome definitely. 

Social Networking Internet Problems Are Rare Discussion

reply to discussion postUntil recently, my employer, ( a large hospital) would not allow employees to use any web browser other than Explorer. On my personal computers, I used Google Chrome. When I tried to download it at work, I wasn’t allowed even though Explorer was glitchy and would partially load or make me believe the site itself had problems. Finally, my job got on board with Chrome and now internet problems are rare. I have yet to have my Gmail accounts hacked, no do I have to deal with those bloated pages full of newsfeeds, gossip or adds like on Bing or Yahoo. That’s a personal preference, but it’s one that makes a difference to me. All those extra things to click on seems to create opportunities to invite viruses, spam and other security risks into the computer.I honestly wouldn’t make any changes to Google Chrome. It’s suffecient. I like how basic it is and how I can personalize the page. The only thing that is on the page, other than the window to type in your search, is the most frequent sites I’ve been to recently. I really enjoy this because it saves me time from searching in my bookmarks.

Sociology Sex Love and Romance Concepts Discussion

Pretending that you are explaining these concepts to someone from another world, tell us about your understanding of sex, love, and romance. Although sex, love, and romance seems closely linked, they have significant differences, which are critical, mainly when you seek to understand the social aspects or application. Let me begin by the term sex, which has been used interchangeably by the term gender for an extended period although their conceptualization and use is becoming distinct. Sex refers to the genetic differences between males and females. However, there are instances where an individual?s sex does not align with their identity, especially in the society that is increasingly embracing transgender, non-binary, and gender-nonconforming concepts.Love is usually complex to understand since in most cases, we only seek to know the meaning when we feel someone special to us does not meet our expectations or someone special complains that we do not love him or her. However, in my understanding, love refers to a complex set of emotions, beliefs, and behaviors that have a close association with intense feelings of affection, respect, warmth, and protectiveness for a given individual(s). Because of the several debates arising from this favored topic, philosophers, writers and poets significantly differ in what actually entails love and its limits; thus, I would say it varies from culture to culture and person to a person though although everyone seems to agree it encompasses strong feelings of affection.Conversely, romance has a close connection with love. It refers to that powerful force that creates a more profound sense of connection with someone. The force takes the relationship beyond the friendship level. However, it is not the sexual encounters but rather the awakening of the heart, which sparks the chemistry of the friendship. Therefore, romance in simple terms is the way of looking at your partner in a manner that you appreciate the good in them. This is one of classmates wrote about the topic about understanding of sex, love, and romance, can you please write response.Sex, love, and romance are concepts that usually tend to have a close interconnection, although they are significantly different. Nonetheless, understanding the difference and possible areas of connection is necessary. The term sex often means different things to different people, although there is a shared conceptualization of the concept. It refers to the biological difference between males and females, usually expressed in their genetic differences. For example, both internal and external male and female genitalia are different. However, it has become more complex, especially with the societal shift to embrace rational concepts such as non-binary, gender?nonconforming, and transgender.Consequently, love refers to the complex set of emotional ties, behavior, and beliefs, which despite the differences in conceptualization; everyone seems to agree to have a close association with intense feelings of affection toward an individual(s). However, since feelings can be deceptive, love in my understanding goes beyond the tingles to incorporate actions. Besides, the subject has been a favored one among philosophers, writers, scientists, and poets for generations, primarily in the quest to understand what entails love and its limits.Romance, on the other hand, is the state of mind, which influences your perception and look at your partner, life, and to some extent the world in a manner that allows you to appreciate the good in them. Usually, it gets more practical between two or different people who are in love. Therefore, this force moves the relationship from the initial stages of friendship. Besides, it romance that creates the deep interconnection toward a loved one thus influential in arousing the chemistry of mutual understanding and care for one another. It, therefore, means nothing more than savoring your partner.There is another one 

SOCW 6002 WU Social Work Fieldwork Experience Discussion

Social workers strive to make informed decisions about the interventions they implement. These decisions should be driven by what the research data say. As a result, social workers have been called to systematically evaluate the effectiveness of the interventions they implement. A common way to evaluate interventions is to use a single-subject design. This involves monitoring an outcome for an intervention implemented for one client. After a social worker works with the client to determine the outcome to be measured, the following steps to the evaluation might look like this:In this Discussion, you use the lens of resiliency theory when reflecting on a case from your fieldwork, and then you consider how to measure the effectiveness of a possible intervention.To prepare, read this article listed in the Learning Resources:Post:
