  • Initial Post: Social interest is a cornerstone concept in Adlerian theory. How could you encourage your clients to develop social interest? Additionally, what are your thoughts about the emphasis that Adlerians place on encouragement as a therapeutic factor? Be sure to connect your response to something you learned in Chapter 5. To clearly illustrate that connection, your response must contain the page number from the textbook in order to earn full credit.

I agree with Adler that social interest is a very important aspect of humanity. According to Corey (2017), social interest involves a sense of being part of a community and being concerned about others in addition to ourselves (Corey, 2017, p. 102). In order to encourage clients to develop social interest, I would first want to learn about what relationships they currently have with others and see if they have a social interest or support system. It may be very easy to encourage someone who has social interest already to develop more of an interest in others than it would be for someone who feels alone and isolated. For a client who does not seem to have a sense of community or social interest, I would start with a small goal and try to get the client to show an interest in one other person, even if that just means holding the door for someone at the grocery store. If the client does something nice for someone else and feels good about him/herself, I would want to work up to bigger goals such as maybe doing some volunteer work or participating in a community event. Corey (2017), says that social interest is an important indicator of mental health according to Adlerians. As social interest starts to become a greater part of a person’s life, feelings of being inferior and isolation will start to fade (Corey, 2017, p. 102). I would frequently check in with the client as we progress from small goals to larger ones to see if their social interest is increasing and how he/she feels about themselves and whether or not a greater sense of community is forming.

Corey (2017) evaluates how encouragement is central to changing a person’s beliefs and instilling confidence and courage in a client (Corey, 2017, p. 105). When I read that, I instantly thought of a counselor being a cheerleader for their clients. Our goal as counselors is to help clients through very difficult experiences in their lives and I feel that encouraging a client is really shining a spotlight on what they are able to accomplish. Encouragement can give others a greater sense of self and feel more empowered to take control of their lives and make positive changes.

Conflictsituation

Conflictsituation

Describe a conflict situation that you have experienced in which you had to use negotiation skills. Identify the type of conflict and discuss how you worked through the negotiation process. Then, evaluate both the process and the outcome of the negotiation.

Address the following questions in your assessment:

  • What worked well?
  • What would you have done differently?
  • What was the most difficult part of the negotiation process?
  • What part of the process (if any) went more smoothly than expected?

Your paper should be 2-3 pages in length and conform to APA Requirements. Include at least two scholarly references in addition to the course readings.

Grammar and punctuation are KEY!

Some notes:

Interpersonal conflict is the focus of this course. Interpersonal conflict occurs between two individuals, such as co-workers, partners, family members, and neighbors. Problems that may arise with respect to negotiation include:

  • Filtering: When the receiving party manipulates information to make it appear more favorable to his or her side.
  • Emotions: The emotional state of the receiver will affect how the messages are interpreted.
  • Information overload: When the amount of information given exceeds the individuals’ processing capacity.
  • Defensiveness: When one of the negotiating parties feels threatened, he or she may react by making sarcastic remarks or verbal attacks, or by questioning motives.
  • Culture: A negotiator uses different tactics with different cultures; for example members of an individualistic society (e.g., the United States) versus members of a collectivist society (e.g., Japan) (Dontigney, 2014).
  • Contending Strategy: Competitors or parties who feel very strongly about achieving a desired outcome will choose a contending strategy. This occurs when one party works hard to persuade the other party to accept their desired outcome, and pushes against any compromises and concessions that the other party may offer.
  • Yielding Strategy: When one party works to accommodate the other party’s needs, then the accommodating party is choosing the yielding strategy. The yielding strategy is not simply a “doormat” approach; in fact, there can be advantages to accommodating the other party, particularly when a long-term relationship is at stake.
  • Inaction: The third strategy for managing conflict is inaction. Inaction can be similar to choosing not to negotiate, or it may be a strategy used during the concession-making process. Silence and inaction toward the other party’s concession communicates disapproval.
  • Collaborative Strategy: Problem solving together with the other party, called collaborative or integrative negotiating, is a strategy that results in maximizing the outcome for both parties. Negotiating on this level requires cooperation from both parties and a clear desire to achieve the best and most synergistic outcome possible together.

Compromising Strategy: The fifth strategy for managing conflict is compromising. It is distinguished from problem solving because the parties are not necessarily working together positively. The parties may be reluctantly compromising during the concession-making process in order to continue the negotiation and achieve a relatively acceptable outcome.

Multinational Enterprise

Multinational Enterprise

 

The world is becoming much “smaller,” referring to the effects of globalization. Today, nearly 60% of world GDP is related to an import or an export, thus more organizations are moving towards multinational enterprises. With that in mind, answer the following:

Requirements:

  • Your written paper should be three to four pages in length, not counting the required title and reference pages.
  • Cite at least two sources for this assignment, outside of the textbook. These should be scholarly or peer-reviewed resources.
  • Your paper must be formatted according to APA Requirements.

Grammar and punctuation are KEY!

Notes:

More and more domestic corporations want to take advantage of increased markets through globalization. Once the decision is made, firms quickly find that one of the biggest challenges they face is how to balance the opposing forces of foreign operations and those of the parent company in the home country. They also come to realize that autonomy and local control may sometimes oppose cultural interests.

Multinational Enterprises (MNEs) must balance financial objectives with localization. Some experts feel additional layers of organization and more complicated systems can indeed slow down communication and the local firms’ ability to deal with cultural issues.

There is no one-size-fits-all in international structuring of corporations. Many MNEs realize that managers throughout the company must be trained to work with multidimensional structures.

In order for management to be successful it must conduct international business by positioning networks, global teams, and global learning organizations. It does so while maintaining complex organizational structures. The result of the design is the formalized arrangement of organizational components such as the headquarters, subsidiaries, business units/divisions within the headquarters and subsidiaries, product lines, jobs, positions, tasks, and reporting relationships in an organization.

The structure necessary to conduct international business is more complex than a purely domestic firm. This results from the process of internationalization. This is based primarily on four factors. Click on each bar to review these factors.

The sustainable competitive advantage a firm has is its ability to learn and innovate faster than its competitors and react more quickly to continual volatility and change. Creating a culture of learning and nurturing is vital, as is facilitating that learning across borders by its employees around the world and its abilities to share, and use that knowledge on a global basis. The organizational culture of the MNE and HR and IHRM need to create and structure policies and practices that encourage and facilitate such attitudes and behaviors. The importance of learning and the need to share and use information on a global basis will take advantage of the global experiences and multinational learning of a global firm’s workforce.
