Choose an organization such as Samsung, Starbucks, Ford Motor Company, or Waste Management that implemented a major change. For example, a sustainability initiative at Starbucks or Apple making FaceTime available to non-Apple users. Do you think this was a positive organizational change? Why or why not?

 
Choose an organization such as Samsung, Starbucks, Ford Motor Company, or Waste Management that implemented a major change. For example, a sustainability initiative at Starbucks or Apple making FaceTime available to non-Apple users. Do you think this was a positive organizational change? Why or why not?
Analyze the organization’s change process based on Kotter’s 8 Steps to Leading Change using the Organizational Change Chart. Make sure to complete a new analysis, do not copy any information from a previous week.
Consider questions such as the following as you complete your analysis:

Do you think this was a positive organizational change? Why or why not?
What strategies and tactics do you think would be effective in creating positive organizational change?
What strategies and tactics might have worked better?

Identify one personal quality you would like to improve as you work to become a more effective leader and follower. Propose why this improvement would be a benefit to you and an organization.

 There are a number of different tools and resources a person can use to gain insight into aspects of their personality. One such type of tool is a personality inventory or “test.” You may have seen examples of these tests online, or perhaps you have even taken one or more of them in the past. In this Discussion, you will use the results of one such online personality test to consider what qualities you already possess and which you would like to cultivate to be a more effective leader and follower. 
 
BY DAY 3
Post a summary of your personality test results, as well as how you might use these results to become a more effective leader and follower. In your summary, address the following:

Summarize your results on “The Big Five Project Personality Test” and state whether you agree with these results. Provide a rationale to support your conclusion.
Analyze how your personality might influence how you lead and how you follow. Draw on your professional and personal experience to provide examples.
Identify one personal quality you would like to improve as you work to become a more effective leader and follower. Propose why this improvement would be a benefit to you and an organization.

Refer to the Week 5 Discussion Rubric for specific grading elements and criteria. Your Instructor will use this grading rubric to assess your work.
Read some of your colleagues’ postings.

Select a social movement. It may be contemporary, historical;  local or large-scale; from the United States or abroad. Examples could include a labor strike, abolitionists opposing slavery, the women’s right to vote movement, or Occupy Wall Street. This is wide open. Pick something that interests you, or perhaps you or someone in your family or in your ancestry may have been involved with.

Pick something that interests you, or perhaps you or someone in your family or in your ancestry may have been involved with.
Early in the week, share which movement you will be researching so we can cover a variety of movements. You will be able to see your classmates’ selections so there won’t be duplication. Your initial post serves as a placeholder to claim the movement you will investigate. 
Do some research to see what you can uncover about the social movement you selected. In particular, see if you can find anything from the time it was occurring: news articles or video footage.
Identify: 

the issue that spurred the movement
any leaders of the movement you can find and their background
the timetable in which it occurred
perceptions of it. If you were alive during the movement, what was your perception of it? If you weren’t and can find someone who was, ask them for their perspective. If you have selected something historical, how does history view the movement?
Finally, was the movement successful? What changed as a result of it?

Identify at least two major contributors to classical thought and their specific contributions to criminological theory.

  
This first unit introduced you to theories and roots for criminology. Your assignment in this unit presents you with six issues. Please respond to all six issues. Please include a brief introduction, and use Level 1 headings (per APA formatting) to differentiate between the six issues, which are detailed below.
· You were introduced to philosopher Jeremy Bentham and his idea (theory) of utilitarianism in the Required Unit Resources (Chapter 2). Analyze his idea that (1) a nation should do whatever is necessary to lead to the greatest possible happiness for the largest possible number of people in society and the idea that (2) man was a “calculating animal” who would balance pain and suffering versus gain when deciding to commit a criminal act. Do you agree with this? Argue your point using research to support your answer.
· How are ideas about the basic nature of all humans related to the way we determine criminal punishment? Argue the ideas using research to support your answer.
· Identify at least two major contributors to classical thought and their specific contributions to criminological theory. Then, support your responses using research.
· Describe, in your opinion, how a criminal personality is developed. No sources are required for this section.
· Assume class division in society causes crime. What is a viable alternative to this system? Analyze and argue both sides of your proposed solution. In your answer, you should identify five major theoretical approaches to identifying criminal causes of behavior and describe which would support your proposed solution.
· Finally, describe some of the characteristics that make up a good theory.
