Cultural Awareness – Techniques and Interventions

Sue (2010) states, “Do not invalidate the experiential realities of diverse groups in our society. Be aware that privilege and power oftentimes make it difficult to see the perspectives of those who experience discrimination and prejudice in their day-to-day lives” (p. 60).

Consider Thomas and Schwarzbaum (2017) discussion of “Techniques and Interventions” and “Countertransference” in Chapters 13 and 16. Given Sue’s directive, what technique or intervention might you adopt in practice with a Muslim client or community and LBGT client or community? What countertransference issues may you confront in yourself?

Your  Effective Compensation Plans assignment is due next week. Take a moment to  familiarize yourself with the assignment instructions and scoring guide. Make  sure you understand the instructions and how you will be evaluated on the  assignment. Ask your faculty member about any questions you have. 

This  assignment is a research-based paper. You will need to conduct independent  research on what constitutes effective compensation plans, ones that attract,  retain, and motivate employees. Here is some helpful information to help you get  started on your research:

 In  this assignment, you will use your textbook and the independent research you  conduct to determine the components of an effective compensation plan, one that  includes more than just base salary. 

Specifically, you will write a 4–6 page  paper in which you: Research  the components of an effective compensation plan.  Determine  the most beneficial ratio of internally consistent and market consistent  compensation systems.  

Be  sure your narrative is in your own words. Research  the methods companies use to assess employee satisfaction with their pay  structure.  Outline  how companies determine whether their employer-sponsored retirement plans and  health insurance programs are competitive.  Recommend  two high value discretionary benefits to employees. 

 Be  sure to include your rationale for selecting these high value discretionary  benefits as opposed to others. Integrate  at least three quality resources using in-text citations and a reference page in  your assignment.

  Note: Wikipedia  and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources.  The  previous week’s assignment preparation activity provides some suggested  resources to help you begin your research.

Topic: Health Policy

See this week’s two Learnscape topics and describe any of the course content you can use to make connections between the readings and the role you will play in the scenario. What connections did you make? Discuss why it is important to include policy and law in the study of health care and public health. 

When developing and implementing a grant proposal, the grantee must consider the project structure and four models for proposal development. Understanding this framework helps to fine tune the proposal and ensure that consideration has been given to selecting the appropriate resources required to carry out the project.

There are four models that can be used for proposal development and implementation: individual, consultative, cooperative, and collaborative. Working as an individual may be sufficient for smaller projects or a pilot. However, the consultative, cooperative, and collaborative models may be required to carry out more complex work. Each of these models involve careful consideration of the required level of resources, collaboration, and partnerships.

In preparation for this Discussion, consider the four models of proposal development as well as when each type of design is appropriate. Review this week’s Learning Resources that focuses on these models. Reflect upon the characteristics of persuasive writing learned in Module 2.

By Day 3 of Week 3

Post the following to the Discussion board:

• In a 2- to 3-slide PowerPoint presentation with recorded voiceover, compare and contrast the four models of proposal development (individual, consultative, cooperative, and collaborative) and how each model would work in your grant-funded project. Persuade your classmates why your choice of one of these four models is most appropriately aligned with your proposed project.

Be sure to support your analysis and conclusions with citations and references in APA format from the Learning Resources and your own research.
