(Page 380 ebook WHISTLE- BLOWER SITUATION)

Hello Professor Roden and Classmates,

Have you seen the movie “Snowden” back in 2016 (1)? It was a story about Edward Snowden exposing the truth about the NSA’s out-of-bounce surveillance program (2). I can relate this experience with the whistle-blower situation in our page 380 ebook about the IT Infrastructure upgrades. The situation outlined in the whistle-blower critical thinking exercise is a perfect scenario to speak about it. The whole goal of whistle-blowing is to stop powerful individuals from taking advantage of the rest of society for their own advantage. It doesn’t matter what the main motive but the concept is the same. 

The concern from my position is, they are about to make a big purchase for “IT Infrastructure” that does not work. The steps I would take if I was indeed in a situation in which I need to report the problem is to (a) make an assessment about the situation, (b) I will save and records I can gather, (c) I will report this to my manager and have him review the situation with me, (d) If my manager does not take me seriously, I will go up the chain until someone listens, (e) If the company totally ignores me, I will review the consequences if I go public with the information I have, (f) I will partner up with a reputable and trustworthy reporter and create a strategy and plan of execution, (g) create safenets for myself and family before executing the plan, (h) execute the plan of action, (i) live with the consequences (3).

 Discuss how an effective password management system works. 

Create a robust network plan for “A dual location medical clinic with doctors/physician’s assistants rotating between locations on different days.

 Make sure that for this network plan you are investigating, researching, and brainstorming stakeholder needs, identifying and addressing data access issues, identifying and planning for security concerns, considering disaster recovery and maintenance issues, and including a researched but estimated consideration of costs related to the network. This task is like our Initial Network Plan/Proposal except more in-depth and concerning a contextualized network. Make sure you robustly address the following topics/areas: 

• network topology (physical and logical/functional) – be sure to include both textual descriptions as well as visual diagrams with captions.
• hardware considerations (routers, gateways, switches, cabling, wireless access points, physical servers/nodes, etc.) – be sure to discuss both physical hardware as well as any virtualized hardware (IAAS).
• software servers/services (web, database, file, source control, patient portals, training intranet resources, etc.)- be sure to consider the needs of stakeholders and what servers/services, clients, and security or maintenance utilities should be considered.
• security policies/procedures and network systems/services (firewalls, IDS/IPS, spam/virus filtering, network monitoring/scanning, chokepoints, guest networks, DMZ’s VPNs, encryption, BYOD policies, etc.)
• disaster recovery/continuity of service/maintenance needs (backup hardware/software, storage locations, communication policies/procedures, recovery policies/procedures, etc.)

 Make your arguments as to why your solutions make sense for your chosen organization’s network. Don’t just say, “you need a wireless mesh network”, explain, discuss, and schematize why that makes sense for your context and stakeholder needs. 

 Submission of your Network Plan should be at least 10 pages in length, using no larger than 11point Times New Roman Font, single spaced,  with 1in margins (top, bottom, left, and right). Excessive sized images will cost 10% of your grade per image, so consider size and layout your visualizations effectively. 

Introduction, background focusing on why conflicts occur within the teams.

 need to write 4 pages excluding reference page.

The write up should consist of a 15–16-page 7th edition APA formatted paper of the PPT (attached) and the following leadership skills and techniques questions answered. First write elaborately about the content mentioned in the PPT attached and then explain/answer the below questions.

1. Are you as a leader able to maintain a personal friendship with some member(s) of your work group or a team without creating the perception of favoritism?

2. What are your views on “Servant leadership”?  Is this contradictory or doable for you as a manager?

3. Describe how generational diversity affects the work implications of your organization or social environment?

4. What message does it send when the organizational culture encourages employees to view mistakes/problems as opportunities for improvement rather than a reason to blame or punish those involved?

5. How will Emotional Intelligence (EI) change, if at all, the way you view and eventually will manage your personal responses and actions and towards your employees?

Writing Requirement:

– 7th Edition APA format

– NO PLAGIARISM

– Provide Citations and References
