Think about the organization you currently work for - or reflect on one that you worked for in the past.  In the first paragraph explain the kind of leadership you observed within the organization.  Did the leaders exemplify a participative style, where you and your colleagues were encouraged to provide, opinions, input and even assist with decision-making? Or, is/was it driven by a transformational leader whose vision is a driving factor and whose motivational skills make people loyal to the organization?  Or, is/was the leader's style authoritarian and maybe even coercive?



In the second and third paragraphs, explain if the organization's culture was a reflection of its leadership.  Did you see a connection - or not - between the kind of leadership you observed among the organization's managers and leaders and an environment that either made you enjoy going to work each day or caused you to dread the thought of waking up on weekdays?

Job Descriptions

https://youtu.be/kHVqkjorxjQ

PLEASE ANSWER THE FOLLOWING AFTER WATCHING VIDEO AND READING ATTACHED DOCUMENTS:

Are job descriptions a worthwhile tool for organizations these days or are they too limited?  Have jobs become harder to define as they've become more multi-focused?  How do we find the right fit between what the requirements of the work truly are and what the candidates say about themselves?  How can the very definition of the job help us find the right people?

State your observations about how we can arrive at a good, workable job description and how we can use that to attract and find the right candidates.  Should a job description be very specific or should it be more open-ended so that we don't miss some good candidates?  Find sources that support your views.

In your experience with on-line job sites, what good things have you seen that make it easier for a potential candidate to use?  What difficulties have you s

Healthcare



As this well-known HRSA report on healthcare workforce analysis predicted, several states and specialties will experience a shortfall of trained medical workers. Recent confirmations of such shortfalls have been reported by https://is.gd/qTzpe0 and https://is.gd/NgdNgv.  Although shortfalls of trained medical workers are not uncommon, they become concerning when linked to the highly concentrated geographical distribution of healthcare providers (as discussed at https://is.gd/DLAzY5).  The pairing of concentration in services and shortfalls may leave large geographical areas devoid of needed medical services.  Therefore, it should not be a surprise that current research focuses on such shortfalls and potential remedies.

Goal.  Your goal is to create a 5-7 page APA-formatted illustrative essay showing the potential effects of shortfalls of trained medical workers and potential/proposed remedies.
