Please provide the details for the 2-5 minutes video I will do the recording.

Please also separate the assignments and references.

Assignment Part 1 – Please see PDF attachment with what your boss started,.

Sometimes we have to assume a leadership function in an emergency, with no notice. Let’s consider the recent pandemic that shut down much of the nation’s businesses. Organizations had to make rapid-fire decisions about who was essential, who was not, and how essential employees would be supported and kept safe. We know from recent history that there were strong racial/ethnic and socioeconomic divides in who served as essential workers in many organizations. Availability of critical supplies was lacking in many communities for long periods of time. Overall, some organizations supported their employees better than others.

Attached below is what your boss started. Your charge is to finish this two to three-minute video to the public. For this activity, choose an organization in your own discipline (Criminal Justice/Police Officer). It may be a current/former employer, another real organization, or even a fictitious organization. Feel free to be as creative as you wish, while integrating all of the essential information into this video to try to restore the public’s trust.

Please also write a side note separate from the information for completing the video stating

  • What information did you need to gather for the video?
  • If this had really happened, who would you have needed to involve to successfully finish the video?

Assignment Part 2 – M2.3 Discuss: Interview—”A Box of Chocolate—You Never Know What You’re Going to Get”

If you have seen the movie Forrest Gump, you are familiar with this title. It refers to the uncertainties of life and the surprises life often holds for us. This certainly holds true in the workforce. And yet, we often make assumptions about what is true and certain, particularly where people are concerned.

We often see stereotypes around age in the workforce. Many of us have likely felt discriminated against at some point because of our age, too old or too young. Think about how you have felt in the workplace.

Now, let’s consider the leader role. As leaders, we are ethically bound to consider how we can effectively lead a generationally diverse workforce. By talking to different generations in the workforce, we are likely to see a variety of approaches to ethical challenges. If the very definition of work, and sometimes even ethics, differs among generations, consider how a leader ensures adherence to the highest ethical standards in an organization.

As we mentioned last week, it is important to talk with people who are not of your own generation to learn about generationally diverse perspectives. This week’s interview allows you to do just that.

Interview someone from another “generation” about their experiences in the workplace. Ask the following questions at a minimum.

    • Have there been activities or decisions made in the workplace that make this person feel left out? What were they?
    • What ethical dilemma stands out most for this person in their workplace?
    • How did they resolve it?
    • Did they experience any resistance to their solution?

You should try to complete your interview early in the week to allow time to converse about generational differences.

Part I: Initial Post
