Write a 700- to 1,050-word paper related to trends in the management of courts. Explain how the following issues impact the way courts complete their function:
The impact of court consolidation and restructuring of victim rights laws
The changes the court agencies have made (at the local, state, and federal level) in response to the issues above and an analysis of the effectiveness of these changes
The problem: Currently, the hospital has been in the spotlight due to an increase in medical error cases, which is attributed to poor skills in managing patients. Therefore, this has negatively affected the hospital’s profit margin and reputation. Furthermore, the hospital has been experiencing a higher level of patients’ dissatisfaction. Some of the employees have not been performing as per expected standards.
HRD solution I recommend: Kent Hospital should introduce effective performance strategies to reduce medical errors, increase patients’ satisfaction, improve the quality of health services provided, and boost its competitiveness.
Professor’s feedback: You may need to narrow it down to a single area such as medical errors or patient satisfaction. Remember, you only have a maximum of 4,500 words so you don’t want to burn a bunch of those up talking about your action’s impact on multiple results.
Identify a company or organization of your choice with a true and current HRD development opportunity. Prepare a comprehensive human resource development program on that opportunity.
The suggested outline for this paper is as follows:
Grading will stress structure, content, analysis, and style.
The paper must be at least 3,000 words in length, but not exceed 4,500 words not counting tables, figures, and any (optional) Appendices; it must correctly cite and use at least 10 ACADEMIC references, NOT counting the textbook. Please do not use SHRM or other commercially available sources for this assignment. ALL cited sources must appear both within the body of the text (in text citations) and in the References list. NOTE: for an “A” grade, the paper must use articles from peer reviewed journals or “scholarly” books.
You can decrease the frequency of any behavior through punishment, but why not give some thought to reciprocal inhibition? Reciprocal inhibition is the process of defining the opposite of the undesirable behavior and reinforcing the positive instead. Reciprocal inhibition can be useful for leaders in helping change behaviors aiming for high reliability. For example, instead of punishing errors, reward quality.
Considering your organization, or a health care organization you are familiar with, write a 3- to 4-page paper that:
2) Explains how using reciprocal inhibition may be an improvement in the culture of quality. Include any steps that will foster a culture of quality in an organization to become a high-reliability organization.
Note: Your Assignment must be written in standard edited English. Be sure to support your work with at least five high-quality references, including two from peer-reviewed journals. The Assignment should show effective application of triangulation of content and resources in your conclusion and recommendations.
