Read the following article to better understand organizational conflict and how leadership and researched conflict resolution steps be used to mitigate or resolve conflict: What the Differences in Conflict Between Online and Face-to-Face Work Groups Mean for Hybrid Groups: A State of the Art ReviewConflict can be present in an organization in many ways. There can be conflict with a task, a process, or with individuals. At its core, conflict centers on the perception (or reality) that the particular situation will negatively impact what the individual believes is the correct assertion or process. It is important to note that because opinions and experiences differ, that does not necessarily mean one party or the other is in error. However, the differences form the foundation of a conflict that must be identified and resolved.Anyone can argue that conflict is inevitable, but company leaders and employees must recognize conflict exists and work to resolve the issues and mitigate potential impacts.Based on your research and experience, discuss the following with your classmates:What are the different types of conflict and social dilemmas that can be experienced in an organization?What conflict resolution models can be used to mitigate and reduce conflict in a company’s sociotechnical systems environment?How have social media applications increased or decreased conflict in the workplace?What differences or similarities do you see between your posting and other classmates’ postings?

When and why do you think the subject in the experiment began to second guess himself? He allowed his piers thoughts/ answers to overcome his. He did not go with his original thought; hearing others repeat the same answer, he must have thought it was the right response. So when did this happen?

 
1.In Asch’s experiment he examines conformity by taking note of the number of times the real participant conformed to the majority of the group. The subject in the experiment began to “second guess” himself when he knew the right answer, but the majority of the group picked the wrong answer. It didn’t make sense to him. He stated at one point that there were four of them and one of him so they had to be right. Right? Some of the circumstances that contribute to conformity is the status of the participants, the situation in which the individual was responding, social support, and the unanimity of the group. A lot of people conform because there is a distortion of their own judgment, as I said before the participant in the study knew the right answer, but chose the wrong one because their were “four of them and one” of him. People like to avoid “making waves” or being embarrassed for not fitting in. Or as in normative conformity, they don’t want to be disapproved of because of their deviance, as referenced in the video. I personally don’t feel the need to conform now, I’ve learned to be my own person and stand for what I believe in. As a child, I conformed to things quite often due to peer pressure and wanting to fit in. Sometimes I was even forced to conform.

2.  
How is the principle of conformity examined? It is “conformity examined” by a group of individuals who participated in the study, like a critical trial. He stated that “I want to give you a test of your visual acuity, your sensitivity to differences in line lengths, so I am going to show you three comparison lines lengths” It was about social pressure. 
When and why do you think the subject in the experiment began to “second guess” himself? He allowed his pier’s thoughts/ answers to overcome his. He did not go with his original thought; hearing others repeat the same answer, he must have thought it was the right response. So when did this happen? The third trial is when it started it begun with hearing “two, two, two” repeatedly, and when it became the subject in question’s turn to give his answer, he paused and second-guessed the answer he wanted to give. 
“something happens two, two, two, two, to the subject denies the evidence of his own eyes and yields to the group.” 
Why do you think some participants would be more likely to conform than others? I believe that Ash’s study proves that people as easily influenced by what others may do. If you have a group of 6 individuals and you ask them all the same question about life, at least two them six are going to repeat what the other person said. This study made me think about how the environment we are placed in can take over an individual mindset. We react off on what we see and or are taught. 
There are many reasons why people conform. Were you ever in a situation where you had to conform? Why did you feel the need to conform? I have never been placed in this situation ever. I have always had a brain of my own; I never along another person’s thoughts or feelings take affect me or cloud my judgment in any way. I am very outspoken. 
What are some of the circumstances in the experiment which contribute to “conformity”?
It’s all about social influences. When others in a group are of a higher social status, others who are not may lean more to there response thinking they are more “knowledgeable” than themselves. 
Why do you think some participants would be more likely to conform than others? Idk. It’s just something that happens. I guess others are not as strong-minded as others are.

suppose you are a manager who needs to communicate several messages to employees of the company. List the medium (telephone, email, text, face-to-face meeting, et cetera) you would use to communicate the message. Explain why you chose that medium over the other possible mediums.

 
Managers spend one third of their time communicating up and down the organizational hierarchy. Communication is the transfer and understanding of information from one person to another. The communication model comprises of several parts.
We want to examine the communication pathway or medium in which communication is delivered. The communication pathway is the way messages are sent, including:

Face-to-face meetings.
Electronic mail and online discussions.
Written letters or memorandums.
Telephone or voice-mail, among others.

While some people may be better at using certain mediums over others, some mediums can be better suited for the specific message being conveyed. For this week’s discussion, suppose you are a manager who needs to communicate several messages to employees of the company.
List the medium (telephone, email, text, face-to-face meeting, et cetera) you would use to communicate the message.
Explain why you chose that medium over the other possible mediums.
Messages

The CEO abruptly resigns after the news media reports that the CEO embezzled millions of dollars.
A plan to relocate the company.
The death of an employee.
The reassignment of one division to a new location.

Respond to the following for each of the messages above:

List the medium (telephone, email, text, face-to-face meeting, et cetera) you would use to communicate the message.
Explain why you chose that medium over the other possible mediums.
Then, consider the importance of the information conveyed in these messages. How might the choice of medium for communication impact trust and credibility among the employees?

Identify in what ways their cases are typical or atypical of the illness in terms of onset, associated features, development, and course. Support your response with references to scholarly resources.

 Experiences of schizophrenia are not homogeneous; there is wide variety in onset, course of illness, and combinations of symptoms. Social workers need to be able to understand the different manifestations and pathways of the illness to plan interventions. Social work services play a key role in stabilizing crises, supporting family coping, and influencing overall quality of life and outcomes of individuals with schizophrenia. In this Assignment, you practice applying this necessary individualization. 
To prepare: In the Learning Resources (ATTACHED), focus on the associated features, development, and course of the illnesses in the schizophrenia spectrum. Also focus on descriptions of the disorder and the way it develops for different individuals. 
 Choose two articles from the list in the Learning Resources (ATTACHED) that apply to treatment support and interventions for the schizophrenia spectrum. Access the Library and research additional peer-reviewed articles. 
 
Submit a 3- to 4-page paper, supported by at least 3–4 scholarly resources (including both required and additional resources), in which you address the following:

1. Compare Saks’s and McGough’s experiences with schizophrenia, specifically referencing the positive and negative symptoms they each experienced.

2. Explain how you would use the Clinician Rated Dimensions of Psychosis Symptom Severity measure and the WHODAS to help confirm your diagnosis.

3. Identify in what ways their cases are typical or atypical of the illness in terms of onset, associated features, development, and course. Support your response with references to scholarly resources.

4. Explain how you would plan treatment and individualize it for these two individuals. Support your response with references to scholarly resources. In your explanation, consider the following questions:

A. What are the long-term challenges for someone living with the illness?
B. What social, family, vocational, and medical supports are needed for long-term stabilization?
C. How might treatment look similar or different for Saks and McGough, given they have the same diagnosis?

5. Briefly explain how race/ethnicity, gender, sexual orientation, socioeconomic status, religion, or other identity characteristics may influence an individual’s experience with schizophrenia.
