Please submit one original post (400-500 words) and respond to at least two peer posts (75-150 words). Cite the text and the Martin chapter when appropriate. Although you must cite the text and the Martin chapter at a minimum to receive full credit for this assignment, you may also cite one or two additional relevant peer-reviewed journal articles if you wish. (Articles may be cited in either your initial posting or your responses to peers.) Be sure that you have addressed all parts of the required response.
When you respond to peers, respond as if you were dialoguing with them, so be sure that your posts are related to their initial postings. Your posting needs to deepen the discussion by adding an additional perspective, sharing new information, or asking an additional question to get your colleague to think more critically about the issue – it should not be a new posting on your part that doesn’t connect to the initial posting or a mere “I agree with everything you’ve said” statement.
Prior to submitting your posts, check them for appropriate grammar, usage and spelling. In the field of social work it is important to be able to communicate effectively when writing as well as when speaking. Errors in these areas will result in a lower grade for your discussion posts.
Answer preview
To avoid such oops experience my basic approach would be to avoid many contributions in my first meeting. I would take some time to observe what are the basic activities and approaches that are used during those multidisciplinary meetings. I would also consider responding to other staff members briefing rather than my own in order to familiarize myself with the agendas that have been in discussion in the previous meetings. To avoid such an experience I would consider asking the other workers of the major proceedings that occur during such meetings. This would help me to have an estimation of the major expectations in the meetings as well as my own contribution (Stanhope, & Lancaster, 2013). Through this, I would have managed to reorganize myself to ensure that my points match the expectations of the meetings. Prior to the meeting, I would also have asked my supervisor the expectations of the meetings. The supervisor would have probably explained to me the major agendas under discussion as well as my expectation as a new employee. By asking the supervisor I would be fully informed as I make my briefing.
