Initial Posting: Create an overview of a patient with the diagnosis/disorder/disease process assigned to your group. Include related circumstances of the situation, the history of the patient’s health, or situation leading up to the diagnosis in the scenario. For the physical examination and assessment findings, please include 3 subjective and 3 objective findings you would expect to see, and the lab values you would anticipate finding for that diagnosis. Include any additional diagnostic testing that would need to be done, what it would look like if positive, and describe the treatment that would be indicated.

Only when leaders integrate technical skills, goal-directed activities, and the ability to form meaningful relationships through emotional competence does optimal organizational effectiveness result.

Scenario:

A team of highly competent members has become adept at organizing and managing itself. The self-sufficiency of the team is appreciated by senior leadership who assumes the team can respond to challenges without support or guidance, given the team’s legacy of success. Recent challenges incited the team to request assistance; when assistance was not provided, the team began to make independent decisions. The team members believed they were the only ones who understood their work and avoided asking for help. The leaders involved believed that no news equaled good news. Neither the leaders nor the team members considered their work within the context of the entire organization. As a result, the team’s level of emotional competence decreased, along with their productivity.

Consider this scenario and address the following.

Identify three strategies to reduce friction and build unity between the parties using emotional competence as the framework.
What outcomes would you identify to measure the effectiveness of each strategy?
Consider an adversarial relationship that exists between leaders and departments in your organization. How does the culture of the organization affect the situation? What knowledge, skills, and attitudes do you bring to the organization? What would others say are your leadership strengths? How can these strengths be used to reduce the adversarial relationship?

Case Study: Sherman Red Yoder
I understand you want to hear my story; well Im not much for talking, but I can give you the highlights. Theres a lot thats happened over my 80 years. From the top. My name is Sherman Yoder, but I answer to Red. No one around here even remembers my real name. I was born in this house in the downstairs bedroom. Mom had already delivered six kids and there was no way I was waiting for Dad to finish feeding the hogs and get Mom to town before I come out. Mom used to love to tell that story.

Dad bought this farmhouse and the first hundred acres right before he went off to WWI. The folks saw good times and bad in this ol place and so have I. All my brothers and sisters left the land as soon as they could. I was the only one of the lot to care about this place and want to carry on what Dad started. I really havent gone far from this spot in my entire life. The one time I got it in my head to try something different, I wound up in Korea with an Army uniform on. I was glad to get back to this place after that stint and here Ive been ever since.

Married the neighbor girl Bessie when I got back. Her dad wasnt so sure that it would work out since she was 8 years younger than me and she intended to go off to the state college. We sure did prove him wrong; we celebrated our 50th anniversary the week before Bessie died. The ladies at the church had the hall all decorated up and we brought Bessie home from the hospital for the afternoon. She was bound and determined to live for that day; no way did she want her friends to go to that much work for her to not show up. I couldnt believe it when the ladies had to prepare for the reception after we buried Bessie in that same hall one week later. We had such a good life together. That was 10 years ago.

I dont do much of the farm work anymore. Our son Jon takes care of the crops and the few animals we have. I still go out to the hen house every morning to collect the eggs. Im a little stiff in the morning, but I get loosened up enough to walk out to gather some fresh eggs to go with my bacon for breakfast. I get in to town at least once a week; on Monday morning me and my buddies meet at the VFW for our coffee and donut break. I get caught up on all the town gossip and we laugh and bellyache about whats going on in the world.

Three weeks ago I celebrated my 80th birthday. My daughter-in-law, Judy, organized a big to do at the church after the Sunday service with cake and ice cream and all the fixins for my party. I had a big piece of cake but skipped the ice cream. Doc Baker was there and I knew he would scold me about too much sugar. Six months ago he told me I had diabetes and I started taking a pill for it, but a few weeks ago he put me on insulin. I figure I should be able to eat what I want; come on, Im not going to live forever, and it was my favorite cake, German chocolate. I ate it in the kitchen so the Doc wouldnt see me; wouldnt you know, his office nurse Helen came in the kitchen with a load of dishes just as I was putting the last bite in my mouth. She just winked at me and smiled.

After the party, I went out to the mall with Jon and the grandkids. Im not one for shopping much, but I needed a new ink cartridge for my printer and the computer store is the one place I like to look around in. Too bad we parked clear on the other end of the mall so the kids could go by their favorite stores for Grandpa to buy them a little something. Jon got real mad at me when I asked if I could sit and rest for a while, so I just kept walking. I guess my new shoes were a little tight; I didnt feel anything but when I got home there was some blood on my sock, and then I saw a sore on my big toe. It must not be too bad since its not hurting except when I try to put my shoes on.

I showed the sore to Jon and Judy the other day and Judy said she would call the doctor to see what she should put on it. Jon gets so irritated when I need extra help; I hope I can just continue to soak my foot in hot water to clean it out. Judy was a nursing assistant out at the old folks home for many years; Im hoping she will be able to help me with this. I like the idea of the home nurses coming out here as long as my VA benefits pay for it. That way they can see that Im doing just fine living here on my own.

I was searching on the Internet for the best way to treat this sore; there are so many sites that talk about foot sores if youre a diabetic. Some of those pictures are pretty scary; I cant sleep at night thinking about what could happen if this doesnt heal. Of course, I havent slept through the night for years. Even the couple of beers I have at night when Im on the computer dont seem to be helping anymore. Judy sometimes gives the kids Benadryl to help them sleep so Ive been taking a couple when I go to bed; they seem to help me sleep a little better.

As a matter of fact, I need to wrap this up now. I promised Jack, my grandson in college, that Id Skype him in a few minutes. He just started the agronomy program at the university. I love to hear about what hes learning and give him encouragement to come back to the farm.

Introduction
Description of the Case Study Child In this section of the paper, you will briefly introduce and describe your assigned child and his/her development, behaviors, personality, school performance, emotional wellbeing, etc. You should also briefly mention any key information about the family as well. Read paper instructions to ensure you have what you need here. 
I provided the introduction can you make some adjustments : Introduction is one paragraph- focus more on Shawn, as in the second paragraph – but describe his personality more.

(Having trouble looking for 3 articles only Published 2014-2021 older studies/ articles not permitted)
Factors that Influence My Case Study Child  (Shawn)
In this section, you will likely have three paragraphs. The first paragraph should have a topic sentence and one or more sentences that state which three influences you focus on. Then you will start a second paragraph on the influence of either poverty (or low family income) OR racial inequality – whichever you opt to use. You will state which, describe how you think it impacted your case, and then back it up with a research findings from one of your articles. Start a third paragraph that focuses on the impacts of the pandemic, being clear about how you think that has impacted your case study child. Then back up your claim about that with the study (article) you found on the pandemic,The last paragraph of this section of the paper discusses whatever third influence you decide to discuss, following the same approach as for the first two – meaning, you will back up your claim using the third article you read. 

For this section of the paper, you will discuss three influences on your case study childand how you believe they each influenced him or her. This section is a bit more complex and will take many written drafts to write well. Please note the following:

1.First, you do not choose 2 of the 3influences. All students must select one from either poverty/family income OR racial inequality and one must be the COVID-19 pandemic(there are now many studies published in 2020 and in January of 2021 on how children have been impacted by the pandemic so far).
I choose family income and Pandemic(Covid-19)

2.The third influence is any factor of your choice-anysituation, process, etc. that you believe, based on the documentary, had an influence on your case. The options for this influence are nearly endless, but some ideas aremothers/maternal mental health/stress,parenting style/approach, lack of father involvement,quality of schools, biological factors or shifts, like having a disorder like ADHD, child/teen temperament and personality, extended family support, availability of mental health services,peers/friends, etc.
I didn’t choose one yet

3.Do not overly focus on one aspect of the child that was impacted -in other words, do not just focus this entire section on one outcome of the case study child -like only on emotional wellbeing or only on school performance.
4.Do not only focus on negative child/teenoutcomes or behaviors. The children in the documentary all demonstrated some positive outcomesand strengths-positive attitude, etc.

1.  Section A: Introduction: This is the first major section of your paper in which you introduce your paper’s focus or purpose and give a quick overview of the interviewee (~ .75 pages). Provide the following information:Opening sentence or two related to your topic or case that grabs the reader’s attention. It is highly recommended doing that with a prevalence statement that includes a relevant statistic from a direct or primary source (usually U.S. government one – like for a paper on immigrant families, how many such families enter the U.S. each year or for families with an incarcerated parent, how many prisoners have children, etc.).Describe the paper’s focus or purpose, indicating a person was interviewed as a case study (introduce him/her very briefly) and that the experiences of that person will be compared to recent research on the topic.Tell the reader about the remaining sections of the paper in the order they appear; that you provide an overview of the interviewee’s experiences related to the transition, discuss the research on that type of family transition, and related research findings to the experiences of your interviewee and his/her family).

2.  Section B: Summary of the Case’s Experiences (.75 page 1 page):
Summarize the interviewee’s experiences and the children to help the reader have an overview of the family experiences. Regardless of your topic/type of family transition, this section emphasizes the children and their adjustment to the transition. However, you will need to include some information on the adults’ experiences and adjustment.  Do not give a great deal of detail summarize, avoiding lots of details of specific events, etc. Your goal is to summarize, although you can provide highlights and a brief example or two of situations if they help the reader understand your interviewees’ family experiences, keeping in mind this section is one page or less.Start with basics likegender,ages of family members (now and at time of transition),where reside, work/profession,the family structure now and before (single parent, number of children, etc.) in other words, include basic information relevant to the topic (e.g., if a parent of a child with special needs, describe the child’s special needs and age; if divorced, then how long divorced),the family culture and intersectionality factors, as relevant to the family transitionAgain, avoid too much detail.
