Can you help me understand this Management question?

You have recently assumed the role of job analyst at a regional hospital located in NC and have been tasked with preparing job descriptions (including specifications) for everyone in the hospital’s care management department.  The care coordination manager has scoffed at your request to complete the job analysis questionnaire you developed.  She laughed, said she didn’t have time for such nonsense, and walked away. Explain how you would handle this situation. What information/arguments might you use to persuade her to change her mind? If you are unable to convince her to change her mind, how would you collect the job analysis information needed to develop the position’s job description?

I’m working on a hospitality question and need a reference to help me learn.

The purpose of this blog is to build a healthcare community among us; identify for each other key aspects of health care “current events” that we feel are important and worthy of discussion in this type of class; and provide one another with our expert analysis of a given trend or development in health care, including things we are learning about in this class.  Postings and articles need to be relevant to Chapter 2 of Healthcare Reframing book.  You can post an article link to your blog post, introducing us to a reading you think is interesting, then briefly make a point about something in that article or that article’s major theme, related to readings in current or prior modules, to help educate us on its relevance. These posts do not have to be very long (150-170 words).  Those responding (70-100 words) to a student’s post can simply give a sentence or two assessing what the original student post made them think about more (but please make it more than “I liked your post!”).  You must always try and bring in an idea from the current or a past module when doing your original blog post.

The United States healthcare system spends the most money of any healthcare system in the world while still falling behind in terms of quality of care. Up until Obamacare was implemented, people in the United States may not have been covered to receive medical treatment resulting in a less preventative medicine take on healthcare. Now as time has gone on, there are two main payment systems that hospitals use to bill patients. There’s a Fee-for-service module and a value-based payment model.

What is being argued in this article is that a Value-based payment model is a more effective model for the healthcare system. Not only that, but it also proves a point that the US healthcare system is not designed to assist in public health crises and the COVID-19 pandemic proved that. Before the pandemic started, the HHS had a goal of converting 30% to this value-based system. Now that the system has been completely tossed upside down, this is something that could have forced healthcare systems to become more cost-effective with their budget. By doing so having their patients better prepared for this.

Considering the steps in the consumer buying process, describe how you used this process to select a product that required extended problem solving. If you have not gone through this process recently, select a product category that would require extended problem solving and answer the questions as if you were going through the buying process.

– At the start of your discussion, note whether you actually went through this process or if you are providing a hypothetical example.

– What was the product category and type of product you were selecting?

– How much time did you invest in this purchase decision?

– Provide details on how you navigated the steps in the decision process:

• Need recognition—What made you realize that you needed this product?
• Information search—What information did you collect about the product category and product options? Where did you get this information?
• Evaluation of alternatives— How many options did you consider? What were the characteristics on which you compared the various product options? Did you follow a specific process when evaluating alternative (e.g., compare the strengths and weaknesses of various alternatives or weighing specific attributes higher than others)?
• Choosing a product—When you were deciding, what objective and subjective criteria did you use in the alternative evaluation portion of the consumer buying process? What were the key factors influencing the final choice and what was the final choice?
• Choosing a retailer—describe the steps that you went through to decide what retailers to consider for this purchase. Specifically, answer the questions stated above for information search, evaluation of alternatives, and choosing a product but as they relate to choosing the retailer where you purchased the product.
• Post-choice evaluation—How satisfied are you with your choice of product and retailer? Would you recommend the product and retailer to a friend?

This assignment focuses on the individual behavior and processes that affect innovation in an organization.  

Watch the video “IDEO shopping cart project” (see link above) and write a summary of the attributes in the IDEO organization that encourage and enhance innovation in an organization. Make sure you include your own critical thinking on the subject matter. 

The purpose behind this mini-project is to let you apply what we learnt in chapter 6 (segmentation) in a fun context – creating a print ad. Specifically, how the segmentation based on psychographics (lifestyle) can drive your advertising strategy. Lifestyle is defined as a person’s pattern of living as expressed in his or her activities, interest, and opinions. The most commonly used lifestyle classification is SRI Value and Lifestyles (VALS). Based on two major dimensions of primary motivation and resources, it divides consumers into groups as you see in the figure below.

Thinkers group only is what I need for this assignment. It is a group project and we are three members, ( what thinking process your group went through) so try to explain this as a group work.

I’m working on a management discussion question and need a sample draft to help me learn.

Nicholas Negroponte is the founder of the MIT Media Lab and has spent his career pushing the edge of the information revolution as an inventor, thinker, and angel investor. His latest project, One Laptop per Child, plans to build $100 laptops that he hopes to put in the hands of millions of children in developing countries around the globe. The XO (the “$100 laptop”) is a wireless, Internet-enabled, pedal-powered computer costing roughly $100.

1.What types of competitive advantages could children gain from Negroponte’s $100 laptop?

2.What types of issues could result from the $100 laptop?

3.Explain each of the efficiency metrics and effectiveness metrics that are required for each laptop to be considered successful.
