Does the agency have effective human resources and supervision practices to ensure success to meet the agency’s goals?

/in /by

 In a four-page paper answer the following questions:

  1. 1. What are some of the reasons that staff may be resistant to or even fearful of evaluation?
  2. 2. How could evaluation be made non-threatening or even valued for workers in human service agencies?
  3. 3. What is the administration’s role in evaluations?
  4. 4. Think of the agency where you currently work, or the one in which you wrote about earlier in the module, when answering the following questions:
    • How effective is the agency’s planning and program design in responding to the needs of the social problems/customer it was intended to address or provide services too?
    • Does the agency have effective human resources and supervision practices to ensure success to meet the agency’s goals?
    • What are the administrative roles in the agency and how does this affect staff, clients, and the human service agency environment?
    • Does the agency formally evaluate itself?
    • Include references

Use and cite at least five credible sources in your research. A list of potential resources is available below.

The members of the United Nations found great value in the analysis you provided on the effects of global warming that result from population growth. They are now asking you write an additional analysis to include further issues related to population growth. Here is the issue they have asked you to consider:

The member states of the United Nations seek to build food systems that can provide global food security which will feed everyone, everywhere, every day by improving food quality though the promotion of effective and nutritional agricultural practices. The crucial issue is not the lack of food in the world but the access to that food. In many developing countries, food shortages are due to governmental control over food distribution. These governments maintain control of the population and their power by limiting access to nutritious food to certain groups. In this practice, they thereby “weaponize” food.

Your second project as a consultant for the United Nations is to develop an analysis that addresses three issues related to global food insecurity caused by global population growth and poverty, and to explore these issues in a developing country of your choosing.

The UN has given you the following guidelines.

Content

The UN has asked that your paper contain three sections. Each section should be one page (or approximately 300 words) in length and answer specific questions, identified in the outline below. It also asks that you use examples from your developing country when answering the questions.

Introduction

Provide an introduction of half a page minimum that addresses points a-e below.

  1. Explains the problem the UN has asked you to address in your own words;
  2. Identifies the three sections your paper will cover;
  3. Identifies the developing country you will consider;
  4. Tells the UN the causes of food insecurity; and
  5. Provides a one-sentence statement of your solutions at the end of your introduction paragraph.

Section I. Background

  1. What is food insecurity?
  2. What role does population growth play in food security?

Section II. Technologies That Can Reduce Hunger and Improve Food Security

  1. What forms of technology can be used to reduce hunger and improve food security?
  2. How would these technological solutions work?
  3. What causes of food insecurity do these technologies address?

Section III. Specific Factors in Chosen Developing Country

  1. Considering the causes of food insecurity, what factors interrupt the flow of food from the source to the people in the developing country you selected?

            Conclusion

  • Provide a conclusion of half a page minimum that includes a summary of your findings that the United Nations can use to inform future policy decisions.

Success Tips

  • In answering each question, use examples from your developing country to illustrate your points.
  • The UN needs facts and objective analysis on which to base future policy decisions; avoid personal opinion and make sure your answers are based on information you find through research.

Formatting Requirements

  • Make sure your paper consists of four to six pages of content (or 1,200 words minimum, not including the cover or reference pages).
  • Create headings for each section of your paper as follows:
    • Section I. Background
    • Section II. Technologies That Can Reduce Hunger and Improve Food Security
    • Section III. Specific Factors in Chosen Developing Country
  • Use and cite at least five credible sources in your research. A list of potential resources is available below.
  • Make sure your paper contains both in-text citations and a source list, per SWS guidelines: Refer to the Strayer Writing Standards (SWS) document for reference.
  • Include a cover page with your name, the country you selected, the date you submitted the paper, and your instructor’s name.

The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is as follows:

  • Propose a plan to address the issue of global food security in underdeveloped countries that considers the impact of prior solutions.

ow could GM use game theory to identify and assess the major risks to this decision?

/in /by

Chapters 30, 31, and 34(Attached) presented three mini-case studies on ERM and risk. Each one presented a slightly different risk scenario. Suppose General Motors wants to replace one of their traditional lines of vehicles with all electric models. How could GM use game theory to identify and assess the major risks to this decision? Identify two major risks that would result from GM converting an existing line to an all-electric line. Provide a brief discussion of each risk, and your assessment of the levels of inherent, current, and residual risk, using GM’s five point scale.

Original Discussion(What’s need to be done) – You must do the following: Suppose General Motors wants to replace one of their traditional lines of vehicles with all electric models. How could GM use game theory to identify and assess the major risks to this decision? Identify two major risks that would result from GM converting an existing line to an all-electric line. Provide a brief discussion of each risk, and your assessment of the levels of inherent, current, and residual risk, using GM’s five point scale.

 

NOTE: These discussions should be informal discussions, NOT research papers. If you MUST directly quote a resource, then cite it properly.

The original discussion should be a minimum of 300 words with at least 3 references in APA style.

After this, there is an attached document called “Discussion needs responses”. In this document there are three discussions which needs responses. Each response should be a minimum of 150 words.

Please look at the attached rubric for details on how the paper will be graded.

research paper  is to write a research paper that explains how Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) empowers organizations to both avoid loss and capitalize on opportunity. You must provide specific examples.

This has to be a word document.

Remember that your paper, including your list of sources, must be in APA format, and you MUST cite your reference in the body of the paper using APA in-text citation format. A source is any paper or article that you will reference in your paper. If you need more information on APA format (for references list AND in-text citations), visit this reference:

https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/560/01/

Here are a few details about the overall research paper Please look at the attached rubric for details on how the paper will be graded.

You must reference two (2) peer-reviewed articles or papers that support your thesis statement. One of these papers may be from your annotated bibliography assignment. The final paper must be at least 500 words in length. (DO NOT exceed 500 words by a material amount. Excessive words or too many references will NOT impress me.)

So in summary, here are the research paper requirements:

2 peer reviewed resources (articles or papers) (1 may be from your annotated bibliography assignment)

Paper MUST address: How Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) empowers organizations to both avoid loss and capitalize on opportunity. You must provide specific examples

Cited sources must directly support your paper (i.e. not incidental references)

At least 500 words in length (but NOT longer than 1000 words)
