Organizations are constantly changing, and it is the leader’s role to help manage the change process.   There are four main stages that employees go through when change occurs: Shock or denial – This isn’t really happening/it doesn’t affect me. Anger or fear – Why do we need to change? What if I can’t do my job now? Management doesn’t really know our business. Acceptance – Maybe this won’t be so bad. I will do what I have to do to keep my job. Commitment – This new way works better. I forget how we used to do it. Identify a recent change at work, briefly describe the change and discuss how you or someone you supervise dealt with the change using these four stages (not everyone gets through all four).

A company has been faced with the challenge of having too many chips in its inventory that become outdated before they can be installed. In addition, on several occasions there has not been enough inventory of parts needed for the install, leading several large clients to move to a different manufacturer. The company is considering using either a just-in-time (JIT) or a materials requirement planning (MRP) inventory system to solve this problem. What inventory system do you feel will be the best fit for this company? Explain your reasoning. What improvements do you anticipate will come from this change in inventory systems?

Norway emphasizes safe prisons, short sentences, and rehabilitation. All corrections officers must have two years of college-level classes and training emphasizing social work and psychology. The prisoners are never double-bunked to avoid violating their rights and harming their rehabilitation. They are allowed to wear their own clothes to avoid the constant reminder of their status. This seems to be effective for this country’s recidivism. Would this methodology work in the United States? Explain your answer in detail.

Discussion Prompt #2 – After School Programs 75-150 words. Due 9/10

 
A major preventive advantage of school for juveniles is the monitoring and social control that principals, teachers, and other school staff provide.  Some juveniles are on their own after school because their parents are at work.  This time period can create opportunities for crime and delinquency.  After-school programs can keep children and adolescents engaged in structured, prosocial activities until their parents return from work.  How important are after-school programs for at-risk youth?  Provide an example of an after-school youth program that is effective in engaging children and adolescents.
