Review: CapraTek: Capshaw v. CapraTekClick CapraTek: Capshaw v. CapraTek to review a sexual harassment case that you will analyze for your assignments in Weeks 6 and 7.

For this assignment your treatment plan should include  the following:

Read the Case Study

• Summary of the professional’s conclusions related to       the client including the reason for referral and highlights of the       assessment. Definition of the problem discussed in terms of those  that are immediate, underlying, and working or long-term. Recommendations for a plan of action, including goals  that have been agreed upon with the client along with suggested times for follow-up

Your treatment plan goals need to  be measurable and labeled as short-term or long-term. They should connect  together to achieve an ultimate action. For example, you might work with a client  whose final goal is to resume shared custody of his child. This is clearly a  long-term initiative that will require steps for completion. Perhaps the client  needs to find safer housing and maintain stable employment. These would be  considered two short-term goals to help meet the long-term one. Each part of  the overall goal should be broken down into smaller, more manageable pieces. 

Each goal should consist of the  following:

• A measurable action labeled as short-term or long-term
• Specific actions necessary to meet the goal
• Possible resources available to carry out the goal
• Projected dates to complete the action
• Additional parties that might be needed to help complete the goal

Most human and social services professionals come into their professions to make a difference. Doing so at the societal level is both a challenge and an opportunity. Being a successful social change agent, leader, and advocate requires both skill and commitment. To accomplish large-scale change to address societal issues as part of the technical aspects of a strategic plan, human and social services professionals need to address indicators of success and performance targets.

To prepare:

• This Assignment is the second part of developing the technicals for your Capstone Project.
• Think about how you might apply the theories and processes of change, leadership, and advocacy when implementing a strategic plan that addresses indicators of success and performance targets.

By Day 7

The Assignment (2–3 pages):

• Describe leading indicators of success. To determine whether the agency, organization, or community will benefit from the strategic plan, you must identify those things which would serve as indicators of success. These indicators must be observable, measurable, and quantifiable in some way.
  • Identify four indicators that would signify success with regard to the strategic plan.
  • Discuss specifically how you would measure each indicator.
• Identify performance targets. Performance targets represent the level at which you would like to observe performance on each indicator. They represent the desired level of performance. For each performance indicator that you have identified, specify the targeted level of performance.

Supporting Lectures:

Review the following lectures:

• Organizational Environment
• Organizational Relationships
