/in /by

INDIVIDUAL PAPER:
 
In this project, individual students will conduct primary research to analyze how managers utilize key elements of organizational behavior concepts such as leadership, decision making, motivation, etc. in their organizations.
 
To accomplish this task, students will interview one manager from one of the three different levels in order to determine how the manager utilizes organizational behavior techniques in their organization.  Interview should be from one of the following:
 
Top manager (conceptual with human skills)
Or
 
Middle level manager (conceptual, human and technical skills)
Or
Line manager (human and technical skills).
 
The managers do not need to be from a specific type of organization or industry.
When interviewing your managers, be sure to cover all relevant organizational behavior issues and get specific examples of how these managers implement OB in their organization. Relate your interview responses directly to organizational behavior topics.
 
Interview questions should be designed using the issues in the course and include (but NOT be limited to):
 
Personality

  • From your interview, what personality traits does this manager exhibit? What do you think this manager’s Myers-Briggs personality assessment is? Why? What type of personality assessment do this manager’s employees have?

Motivation

  • Which type of motivational theory does this manager use? Why? How? What motivates this manager? What motivates their employees?

Stress

  • What sources of stress does this manager have? How is it managed? What sources of stress do this manager’s employees have? How does this manager handle their employee’s stress?

Decision Making

  • What types of decisions does this manager usually make? What style of decision making is used? Why?  Are employees involved in decision making?

Team Dynamics

  • What teams are in this organization? What are their characteristics, size and composition? What are the team’s norms? Is the team cohesive? How does this manager deal with social loafing?

Team Building

  • How does the manager build trust in their teams? How does team building occur?

Communication

  • What type of communication commonly occurs in this organization? What is the most effective form? Why? What communication barriers commonly exist?  What cross cultural and gender issues in communication exist?

Each student is required to provide contact information for each of the manager. Managers may be contacted to ensure that each student successfully completed the paper.
 
Length and Format:
 
Paper should be 8 – 10 pages long, double spaced, cover page, 1 inch margins and should clearly distinguish manager’s name, title, level, organization and contact information. Identify each Organizational Behavior concept with subheading and prepare response based on questions according to each concept.  Provide a short introduction of each manager’s organization and industry.
 

CAD Project – Solid Works

/in /by
Computer-aided design is a major component of modern engineering and rapid prototyping.  To celebrate your future career in modern engineering, we are offering the opportunity to earn points for generating a computer-aided design of a scientific apparatus.  Typically students use Solidworks software, however other programs can generate sufficient files.
In order to gain credit in this exercise, you will need to submit files that clearly demonstrate that the authorship and artistry of the design is yours.  Zipped files are best. Solidworks assemblies are welcome, as long as all component files are present so that they can be opened.
Student projects are assessed upon difficulty, accuracy, and accompanying word file explanation of the use of the apparatus and its influence on science.
Designs used for your Solidworks design course are not accepted for credit. This means that mechanical pencils, bicycle gears and pedals, as well as other assignments given in that course will not gain credit.  The design has to be new, and has to be chemistry apparatus.

Article: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/28/business/economy/federal-reserve-says-ready-to-act.html 
It is important that you remain politically objective and consider the economic implications of the article in a measured and analytic way. The goal of these exercises is to apply the theoretical framework we will be learning to contemporary real world issues – less important is whether you agree with a particular policy or not. Your analysis should include both written analysis and graphs to support your arguments. You should address the content of the news article in a clear and thorough manner. Legibility is a key part of communicating your ideas. Grading is out of five points possible and will focus on three main areas: 1) addressing the issues discussed in the article, 2) accurately using economic theory to analyze the issues, 3) clarity of communication.
