Context

We must look at the legal issues involving providers, staff, and labor relations. In the hierarchy of legal importance, these would rank only second to those involving patients. With this knowledge, we will be able to better understand the issues and problems surrounding groups involved in providing health care services. When dealing with medical staff, hospitals must comply with JCAHO, Medicare conditions of participation, and state hospital-licensing rules. In summary, there are several categories of legal issues that must be considered.

Show LessThe Assessment 5 Context document contains additional information about legal issues, covering these topics:

  • Medical Staff Liability.
  • Fourteenth Amendment.
  • Eleventh Amendment.
  • Medical Staff Privileges and Sanctions.
  • General Staff and Labor Relations.

For this assessment, you will first select an actual business-related legal case, pertaining to the topic of contract law, based on briefly conducting associated research. Based on that, you will then select an organization that you believe would be impacted by that legal case.

 Having completed both of these tasks, you should assume you’re a senior manager in the organization you selected, and that you were asked to perform an analysis of the legal case and to write an executive briefing for the executive team of that same organization. Your executive briefing should include a summary of the case, as well as an evaluation of how the case impacts the organization.

The purpose of this format is two-fold:

  1. To give you the opportunity to research and investigate a real court decision.
  2. To challenge you to think about the business implications of the case, and specifically how the case will impact an actual organization.

In your case law analysis you must be able to navigate the court’s decision, and summarize and evaluate it. You may choose any business-related court case, either state or federal, as the basis for your case law executive briefing, as long as the case is applicable to the assessment topic. 

You are expected to conduct your own independent research to locate and evaluate the applicability of cases. A few appropriate case law websites are recommended for you in the Resources, but you are not limited to using cases from these sites.

For this assessment, use credible legal research databases and online resources, research federal and state court cases, and select any business-related case that has been decided by a state court, a federal court, or the United States Supreme Court. Then select an organization (potentially the organization for which you work) that you believe the selected case might impact. Write an executive briefing that addresses the following:

  1. Articulate the context and relevance of law in a business environment:
    • Identify the parties who are before the court.
    • Provide a brief background and context associated with the case. Summarize the facts in no more than 2–3 paragraphs.
    • Identify the specific disagreement between the parties.
    • Explain the ruling of the court and its business relevance in no more than 1–2 paragraphs. Was there a dissenting opinion? If so, explain why some of the judges or justices disagreed with the majority in the decision.
  2. Evaluate the business impact of the case:
    • Summarize your analysis of how the case will impact businesses in general, including both positive and negative impacts.
    • Indicate the organization you selected as potentially impacted by the case and why you selected that organization.
    • Explain how the case will impact the specific organization you selected, such that the executive team will understand the implications of the legal decision.

Based on your executive audience, your executive briefing should be no more than two pages, and should be well organized and written in clear, succinct language. Follow APA rules for attributing sources that support your analysis and conclusions.

Academic Integrity and APA Formatting

As a reminder related to using APA rules to ensure academic honesty:

  1. When using a direct quote (using exact or nearly exact wording), you must enclose the quoted wording in quotation marks, immediately followed by an in-text citation. The source must then be listed in your references page.
  2. When paraphrasing (using your own words to describe a non-original idea), the paraphrased idea must be immediately followed by an in-text citation and the source must be listed in your references page.

For this assessment, consider that you work as a marketing analyst for a consulting firm. You were previously asked to develop an analysis white paper to be used for marketing purposes to showcase the firm’s consulting capabilities, and your manager and the firm’s marketing team was impressed with your work.

 As a result, your manager asked you to create another analysis white paper to also be used for marketing purposes, with a goal of highlighting the firm’s consulting capabilities for each of the “four Ps” of product, place, price, and promotion.

Analyze the fourth “P,” promotion, for a product or service. You can use the same product you used for the previous assessments, or you can choose another organization, product, or service.

Your analysis should cover all the aspects of promoting the product or service, including promoting to the customer and other promotional audiences. Address the following in your analysis:

Communication Strategy

Analyze the company’s communication strategy in relation to the intended customer or promotional audiences. As part of that, indicate:

  • Who are the intended customers?
  • Who are the promotional audiences?
  • What are its communication channels and media tools?
  • How does the company use social media in its promotion of the product or service?
  • Who represents the product or service?

Explain how the integrated communication aspects of the company’s integrated marketing program contribute to the company’s economic success in relation to its competition in the marketplace.

Promotion Strategy

  • Analyze promotional components of the sales approach and explain how they support the sales process. As an example, salespeople for an IT product might need to educate the customer about the product as part of the sales cycle. What works? What does not work?
  • Propose potential improvements to the company’s promotional strategy and justify those changes based upon identified weaknesses or opportunities.
  • Describe how your recommendations regarding the promotion strategy might impact management in the company. For example, are there issues related to how and when your recommendations should be implemented? Suggest ways of addressing potential implementation challenges from your recommendations.

Based on your executive audience, your case study should be well organized and written in clear, succinct language. Follow APA rules for attributing sources that support your analysis and conclusions.

Academic Integrity and APA Formatting

As a reminder related to using APA rules to ensure academic honesty:

  1. When using a direct quote (using exact or nearly exact wording), you must enclose the quoted wording in quotation marks, immediately followed by an in-text citation. The source must then be listed in your references page.

For this argumentative essay, evaluate the effects and/or implications of team sport versus individual sport, particularly focusing on children. Ideally, this should be something that you are familiar with based on your own experience and/or observations. 

Your essay should be 600 words using a clearly established and supported thesis and topic sentences. Readers should be able to understand the pros and cons of your chosen subject, as well as the priorities and relationships between them. There is no required number of sources, but chances are, in order to make your evaluation detailed and well-supported, you’ll need to rely on outside information and others’ arguments, at least in part. This essay should demonstrate understanding of academic language and argumentation, which can be demonstrated through the use of multiple forms of appeal, consideration of opposing viewpoints, and demonstration of audience awareness.

For this assignment, find a scholarly article on your Week 4 short story in the SUO Library. First, complete the lecture on conducting research in the SUO Library. Next, enter the online library and find one credible, scholarly source examining the short story that was the focus of your Week 4 rough draft.

Do not use popular publications, such as summaries from Masterplots or The Introduction to Literary Context, or other media that are not research oriented. Refer to this videoprovided for this course by South University Online Library Services.

 Post an annotation of your source to the discussion board. Your annotation should include:

  • A complete APA citation of your scholarly article
  • A paragraph of summary of the key points presented in your source
  • A paragraph explaining the source’s quality and how it is relevant to your analytical essay

Here is an example of an annotated APA entry (not an actual source): 

 Smith, A. (2016). Journey into the unknown. American Literature, 22(3), 4-5.

This article compares Nathaniel Hawthorne’s “Young Goodman Brown” and Eudora Welty’s “A Worn Path,” discussing the protagonists’ journeys as a focal point. The article examines these two main characters and their different paths in life. Those paths led Young Goodman Brown and Phoenix Jackson into the forest on very different quests, but both were determined to take these journeys that were emotional, meaningful, and dangerous.

Smith’s article offered a fascinating perspective on the motives and outcomes of these two disparate characters and their life paths that led them into the unknown. I gained a better understanding of my character, Phoenix Jackson, by reading this article and contrasting her with Young Goodman Brown. There are several quotations and ideas I will be able to incorporate into my final draft.

Examples of Journals with Scholarly Articles:

  • Studies in Short Fiction
  • The Explicator
  • Modern Fiction Studies
  • Language and Literature
  • Critique
  • Modern Language Notes
  • Nineteenth-Century Fiction
  • Twentieth-Century Literature
