For this discussion, you will need to complete the textbook readings, the Marion video, and the Obama article for this module.
Within every society, there is a distribution of power. Not everyone has power or influence over policy decisions at the macro or micro level.
In this discussion, we will discuss the spectrum of societal needs and what needs are addressed by policy and what needs are not. We will also discuss the reasons behind this reality.
Policy itself can be a scarce resource with many competing for policy that addresses their specific needs. Whether policy is created is often determined by the power possessed by those who support the policy.
For this discussion, focus on the question of who has the power when it comes to policy, and how and why that influences what policy is created or not created.
Examine what constitutes the power for those who seem to get their needs addressed and expand on why some consistently have their needs addressed and others do not. After a careful review of the textbook readings for this module, in your initial post:
In responding to your classmates’ posts, suggest solutions so that those whose needs are not currently addressed may be addressed in the future. Provide citations from the textbook readings as well as your classmates’ posts in your responses.
To complete this assignment, review the document.
The less likely developed a relationship is, the more likely it is to dissolve. Relationships between acquaintances, casual friends, coworkers, and neighbors will probably end at some point. The first sign that a relationship is deteriorating is a subtle indication of dissatisfaction. The partners may feel less connected to each other, begin to share fewer activities, and communicate less frequently. The communication in deteriorating relationships is marked by three stages: recognition of dissatisfaction, disengaging, and at times, ending.
Create a scenario in which you provide dialogue which indicates that a relationship is deteriorating. Explain your scenario in a paragraph of at least six sentences. Type your work in Times New Roman font 12.
The comprehensive examination will conclude the formal course work portion of the South University Doctor of Business Administration program. The examination process will provide an opportunity for you to demonstrate doctoral-level mastery of the knowledge base and the competencies required of a doctoral program graduate.
The examination must be successfully completed prior to beginning the dissertation stage. Successfully completing the comprehensive examination will indicate your high level of expertise in the broad field of organizational behavior and your readiness to undertake and complete the dissertation that concludes this program.
The comprehensive examination is scored against specific metrics, against the program learning outcomes, and in accordance with graduate-level expectations of performance. Students successfully completing the actual comprehensive examination are assigned a grade of P/F (pass/fail). For this practice exam, a grade (A, B, C, D, F) will be earned.
The comprehensive examination does not require a “brain dump” of regurgitating every reading from every class. A doctoral-level performance on the comprehensive examination should demonstrate (a) mastery of organizational behavior concepts, (b) the ability to apply theoretical concepts to practice and practice to theory, and (c) the skill to select correct methods and approaches to address research and organizational issues. A doctoral-level performance will also require sufficient evidence from the literature for the statements, conclusions, and perspectives proposed in your responses.
Responses must be complete for the question posed but should not try to cover every aspect of every possible interpretation of the question. Indeed, a primary competency is to be able to state a problem clearly, frame a response, and stay on topic. Responses of specific lengths are not required for any question. If the length of a response is mentioned at all (e.g., 7–10 pages), this is meant to provide general guidelines for typical responses. You will not be evaluated at a lesser assessment level for going under (or over) the guidelines presented. You will be critiqued on the completeness and clarity of your response. In some instances, “less could be more.”
For purposes of the official comprehensive examination, students in the DBA program must successfully complete four question responses. One question will come from each of the four topical areas:
For your practice comprehensive exam, your instructor will assign you a sample question just prior to the beginning of Week 4 of this course. Your response will be due by the due date assigned.

Assignment Questions:
You are the unit supervisor of a medical-surgical unit. Jane is an RN on your unit. She graduated 3 years ago from nursing school and has made a number of small errors in the past few months, all of which she voluntarily reported. These errors included things like missing medications, giving medications late, and on one occasion, giving medications to the wrong patient No apparent harm has occurred to her patients as a result of these errors and on each occasion, Jane has responded to your coaching efforts with an assertion that she will be more attentive and careful in the future. Today however, Jane came to your office to admitted that she flushed a patient’s iV line with 10,000 units of heparin rather than with the 100 units that was ordered. The vials looked similar and she failed to notice the dosing on the label. Jane reported the error to the patient’s physician and filled out the adverse incident report form required by the hospital on all medication errors. At this point, the patient is demonstrating no ill effects from the overdosing but will need to be closely monitored for the next 24 hours.
You recognize that Jane’s pattern of repetitive medication errors is placing patients at risk. You have some reservations about dealing with Jane in a punitive way since she openly reports the errors she makes and because none of her errors until today ad really jeopardized patient safety. You are also aware that you have an obligation to make sure that the staff caring for your patients are competent and that patients are protected from harm. You are also attempting to establish a unit culture that encourages open reporting, not “shame and blame” so you are aware that your staff are watching closely how you will respond to yet another error on Jane’s part.
Please answer the following questions on how you would handle the situation (5 points each)
#1. What will you do to address this error as well as the errors Jane has made in the past few months?
#2. What options are available to you?
#3. What obligations do you have to Jane, to the organization, and to the patients on your unit?
#4. How will you create a culture that encourages the open reporting of errors and yet protects patients from potentially unsafe practitioners?
