RESPOND TO THOMAS POST

 

The overall culture of a company is key. I work for a medical supply company who focuses on making sure that our direct reports, and employees as a whole, are engaged. An engaged employee is committed to the overall success of the organization, and their shared values. In other words, they are not just coming to work for a paycheck. I have seen first hand the importance of investing in the overall well-being of an employee so that they feel that their voice matters. In short, happy employees are productive employees. In addition, a happy employee has a tremendous affect on their fellow co-workers. It’s almost as if their positive, happy spirit, rubs off on everyone they encounter.

The contributing elements of a great organizational culture can range from having a clear vision of the companies values, to a visible growth path for employees who are looking to advance within the company. This is extremely important because employees seeking advancement will go elsewhere if a clear glide path is not established.

In addition, and this in my opinion is the most important, is a culture that encourages an open dialogue between all employees. The workplace should be a place where employees feel welcome to shar information, and ideas for the betterment of the company.

Prior to reading this DQ, please read the PA 1 assignment and understand what the assignment is asking you to complete. Once you have an understanding of the PA 1 assignment, please continue to the paragraph below to complete DQ1.

Using the Library Information Resource Network (LIRN), JSTOR, or any other electronic journal database, research six (6) peer-reviewed articles that can be used to answer your upcoming PA 1 assignment. Your discussion should summarize the articles in such a way that it can justify any arguments you may present in your PA 1 assignment and should be different from the abstract. In addition to your researched peer-reviewed article, you must include an example of the article researched as it is applied by industry (company, business entity, and so forth).

Please note: This article summary should not be the only article researched for your PA 1 assignment. You may (and should) have several other articles researched to fully answer your PA 1 assignment. The concept of this DQ is to allow students to be proactive in the research necessary to complete this assignment. You may use your article summary, partially or in its entirety in your PA 1 assignment.

Important: Please ensure that your reference for the article is in correct APA format, as your reference in your discussion post. Depending on which electronic database you use, you should see a “Cite” selection for your article. In addition, there should be a variety of articles summarized and as such, students should have different articles summarized. Your summary MUST include ALL of the following in your DQ post (include every item in the bullet list below, or you will not receive full credit):

Do these in order:

  • In correct APA format, write the Reference of the article.
  • Clearly state what the article is about and its purpose.
  • Describe how you will use it in your upcoming assignment.
  • Repeat for a total of six (6) peer-reviewed sources.

To do well in this assignment, first do the listening, viewing and reading. Use note taking strategies for identifying interesting and/or useful claims the sources make. Refer back to the learning goals for the week as you do. Next, sit down and sketch out an outline for what your focus will be and how you will write a paper that can get at that. This weeks paper should have the following elements:

  1. This week you will connect your reading of student organizing in social movements historically to your own efforts to engage in student organizing at UW Bothell. You are welcome to team up around shared interests, but the work you submit needs to be your own. There are two parts to this:
    1. First, read and watch hooks and get to know the argument that she is making about education and power. Listen to the podcasts from CodeSwitch and the Hidden Brain and think about connections. Then, watch the films about HBCUs and Freedom Summer. Are there examples you can draw on for comparison to your current experience?
    2. Second, identify one student club, group, or collective organizing interest on campus. Not sure where to start? UWB Student Engagement and Activities (Links to an external site.)might be a good place to look around. If you are unable to find examples from our campus that you can relate to, you can also think about broader national or international movements in which students have had a role. Then you can work your way back down to our campus to see where people might be interested in working on that issue. What connections can you draw to the materials from this week?
  2. When it comes time to write, structure your writing in two parts:
    1. A diagnosis of the existing problem – who it effects and how it effects them. No need to do a ton of new research here. In fact, the materials may help you frame the problem itself, or how to think about the underlying structures that cause the problem. This can be short and direct, but should connect with the next section in clear ways.
    2. A prognosis for how to solve the problem. Again, no need to do a lot of outside research, here. Instead draw on the materials from class to explore what the theories and examples we have already can teach us about organizing in the represent moment. Remember that principles and practices are not the same thing as a rigid blueprint.
