Describe the impact of the business or organization on the environment. How is the business or organization helping the environment, and how is it hurting the environment?

Overview
Earlier in this course, we explored how the environment has impacted humans and how humans have impacted the environment. It is not enough to recognize that impacts have occurred, however. We must also consider actionable steps that can be taken to address the sustainability issues these impacts have caused.
Directions
In this short paper, you will describe actionable steps that organizations, governments, or people can take to address a sustainability issue.
First, identify a business or organization.
Then, address the prompts below. Specifically, you must address the following:
Describe the impact of the business or organization on the environment.
How is the business or organization helping the environment, and how is it hurting the environment? (For example, some theme parks recycle regularly and landscape with only edible plants, but they still use single-use plastic cups.)
Describe actions that can be taken to help the business or organization become more sustainable.
What can the business or organization do to improve sustainability?
What policies or standards could help improve the business or organization’s sustainability?
What can people from outside or inside the business or organization do to help improve the business or organization’s sustainability?

he mother tells you that symptoms started about 1 week ago. The only unusual event she remembers occurred about a month ago. The child attended a local fair where the child ate food and drank from the concession stands. He also played in a petting zoo, running around barefoot in the enclosure.To begin, you want to narrow down the possibilities for the cause of the child’s illness by doing differential diagnosis. Because the child does not suffer from chronic disease, you can rule this out (in real life you would not, but this is a microbiology class so we will assume there is a microbial cause). Complete the following:Based on the symptoms alone, list the major types (group) of pathogens (there should be several) that could be associated with these symptoms. Do not narrow down to a pathogenic species at this stage because if you are guessing wrong, then you could be following a route that would exclude the actual agent of disease.Looking at the history, explain whether you are able to exclude any group of pathogens (i.e. timing, potential route of infection, etc.)?

Post an analysis of the impact of innovation on the growth and competitive advantage of an organization. In your analysis, do the following: Describe the organization you chose and explain how innovation played a role within it. Explain in what ways the innovation either led to growth/created a competitive advantage for the organization or resulted in decreased growth and/or a loss of competitive advantage. (Remember that the loss of growth or competitive advantage may have been a result of either poor implementation of the innovation or complete lack of implementation.)  

 When companies implement innovative strategies, it can lead them to develop distinguishing features and functions for their products. Doing so can help the companies grow and outpace their competitors. For example, consider dishwasher and laundry detergent. These products came in liquid or powder form for decades, which most consumers were satisfied with. This satisfaction might indicate that there was little need for innovation; however, certain brands took action on opportunities for innovation and introduced detergent pods. These pods provided a small yet significant increase in convenience, which also increased customer loyalty to those brands.
In this Discussion, you will examine how innovation plays a role within an organization, including the impact of that innovation on the organization’s growth or competitive advantage.
 
To prepare for this Discussion:
Consider organizations where you have worked or notable companies that would serve as a strong example of a company that incorporated innovation or failed to do so. Try to think of examples in which the innovation either led to growth opportunities/created competitive advantages or resulted in decreased growth/loss of competitive advantage. (Note: The loss of growth or competitive advantage may also have been a result of the organization NOT implementing the innovation effectively, or at all.)
Choose an organization to focus on for this Discussion.
Note: When using specific examples from your professional experience, be sure to disguise the names of any individuals or organizations. For larger organizations, disguising names is unnecessary, but be sure not to share any proprietary information.

Describe how you plan to deal with the negative emotions (from employees or other audience groups) that often accompany bad news or other information.

 
Edit your plan based on any instructor or collegial feedback from Week 4. Proof and finalize the plan. It should include the following information:

Company synopsis: This is a snapshot of the company, what it sells, and the number of employees.
Management’s philosophy on employee communication: An example of a management philosophy could be that any important communication about the company’s activities are shared internally before being shared externally on the Internet or in a news release.
Goals of the communication plan: One possible goal could be to help employees be more productive by establishing a clear and effective employee communication plan. The plan can be viewed as an organizational diagnostic that provides employees with consistent, accurate, and regular information about the company’s business goals and objectives.
Target audience characteristics: The plan should take into account cultural, gender, and linguistic differences to help employees understand the goals of the organization.
Communication tools: These can include various deliverables, including e-mails, newsletters, e-blasts, brochures, reports, conferences, employee meetings, and more.
Communication channels: Communication channels include internal and external Web sites, public relations venues, visits or speeches from management, and more.

This week, add the following sections to your final plan:

Review the evaluation methods for your plan. How will you communicate results to management on a regular basis? Consider a monthly report, management briefings, updates, and a yearly summary for board presentations.
Describe how you plan to deal with the negative emotions (from employees or other audience groups) that often accompany bad news or other information.

Finally, prepare the opening of the oral presentation that will describe your completed plan to management.
Presentation Notes
In your presentation notes, add 1 strategy for each of the following:

Reading the emotions of management: What to look for and how to respond
Dealing with any negative responses or emotions to the plan: Ways to resolve any possible conflict in the meeting
Finding approval for the plan: Continuing the meeting by moving past any negative emotions (resulting in a win-win for everyone involved)

Add your presentation notes to the end of the plan.
Provide 5–6 sources other than your textbook to support your answer. Use APA style for citations.
The materials found in the MUSE may help you with this assignment such as the presentation Emotions in Communication.
