What might distinguish how the U.S. Supreme Court found an act of Congress, which sought to prohibit possession of a gun within 1,000 feet of a school, to be an unconstitutional exercise of the interstate commerce clause, but the federal courts have repeatedly upheld the acts of Congress prohibiting discrimination in the area of civil rights, also based on the interstate commerce clause?

Navigating Organizational Change

The health care industry, like other industries, is a very competitive environment. As organizational behavior within health care companies evolves, it will be even more important to consider the future use of learning about/applying concepts of organizational behavior and the need for continuing education.

After a productive year with the medical waste management company, Justin has now been tasked with implementing a company-wide policy change to require continuing education. Each employee will now be required to complete 2 hours of continuing education each year.

Justin’s supervisor has asked for an analysis and plan for the implementation of this company-wide change. This analysis will be presented to company leadership as a tool for understanding and implementing this change.

Answer the following prompts as your analysis of the change process identified above.

1. Explain the importance of continuing education regarding organizational change (100 to 175 words).
2. Explain the impact this policy change may have on the organizational behavior and organizational culture of the company (100 to 175 words).
3. Explain barriers to change and how to address the barriers (100 to 175 words).
4. Explain how this change may affect individual job performance and job satisfaction (100 to 175 words).
5. Explain a motivational strategy that might be used for implementation (100 to 175 words).
6. Explain how teams or groups could be used to implement this policy change. Include a review of two approaches managers can use to build team performance and two organizational barriers to team effectiveness (100 to 175 words).

Loralee and Teddy are new employees at an upscale grocery store on Hennepin Ave. in Minneapolis. Both worked in the deli—they were among the 20 people who worked on the first shift. First shifters were a hearty group—they arrived at 5 am to prepare, then sell, the foods that stock the deli. Teddy made daily food orders from local vendors, while Loralee was in charge of take-out orders at the deli and arranged for their delivery. Their manager, Fatima, noticed that there were a lot of mistakes and misunderstandings among the group; Teddy often ordered the wrong food in wrong amounts, while Loralee missed deliveries because of back-ups and missing ingredients. All of this was wearing on relationships and there was fighting among the group; Fatima needed to work on improving group dynamics. Name five activities that Fatima could organize to improve the group dynamics among the deli’s first shift and name the concept or theory that Fatima would be demonstrating for each

Maxie Coppinger, an office worker at ToledoTechnical School, is waiting for the administrative manager to return from lunch. Maxie has borne the brunt of several offensive office political games within the past six weeks. In her wait for Mr. Darrell Williams, the administrative manager, to return she contemplates what she should do about this latest trick. Should she make a scene and confront the two women she suspects are behind these acts, should she quit her job, or should she seek legal counsel? This latest tactic has crossed the line, and Maxie has had it. When Mr. Williams returns, Maxiefollows him into his office, places a letter addressed to her husband on Mr. Williams’desk, and asks him to read it. Mr. Williamsis perplexed but begins to read. He can see real anger in Maxie’s face and overall demeanor. In a very few sentences, he ascertains that the letter strongly suggests to her husband that Maxie is having an affair at work. Maxie wants to know what Mr.Williams plans to do about this accusation and outright lie. She denies any affair is going on and is willing to confront her accuser(s)—whoever they may be. Her husband feels Toledo Technical School should put an end to these games.

Questions:

1. If you were Mr. Williams, what would be your initial reaction?

2. In your opinion, does the company become responsible for serious allegations made by a coworker to another coworker?

3. If you were Mr. Williams, how would you advise Maxie?

Assume you are on an interview team to select a new president and CEO for your organization. During the course of the interviews, two of the candidates expressed the following behavior styles of leadership. Candidate A said: In turning troubled companies around, I would use this technique. I would first observe how people work and then reorganize. I would promote the top 10 percent and fire the bottom 10 percent. It’s amazing how much energy it gives to the remaining 80 percent. Persuasion alone won’t do the job. I would further pick role models on either end of the spectrum and do something with them. I believe this would promote a tighter team with a lot of deadwood and office politics gone. Actions speak louder than words! Candidate B said: I would push decision-making down into the middle ranks and create a corporate culture that questions the status quo, welcomes change, and encourages teamwork. Both men and women thrive in a boundary-less environment. To that end, I would want to have my employees determine how to spend the day or week. If they believe they need to take a supplementary course or spend a week at a customer site to improve their knowledge of a key subject, then I say let them do it. It’s understood that everyone is working toward our team’s common goal, and we all want to be successful. As each candidate spoke frankly about his or her style of leadership, several thoughts come to your mind. You wonder whether as a worker or manager here, under which type of management would you prefer to work? Why, you ask yourself, would you like that style over the other?

Questions:

1. Discuss the advantages of each style of leadership, as well as some possible disadvantages that could surface with each style.

2. Given only these two candidates, which one would you choose to be president and CEO? Why?

The international man of mystery knew the finest haberdashers the world over and constantly sought to expand his dazzling array of fine suits, ties, and cufflinks. Closet space was at a premium however, so purchases were carefully weighed. Each suit provides 23 units of dazzlement, each tie 14, and a set of cufflinks is worth an easy 8. A suit takes up 0.5 cubic feet of closet space and $900 of budget. A tie costs $135 and cufflinks cost $100 per set. Cufflinks are tiny â even in the original box, they take up only .01 cubic feet while ties occupy a lusty .25 cubic feet. He has budgeted $12,000 for clothes on this trip and has 20 cubic feet of closet space left to fill. Formulate and solve a model for this situation.

A candidate for mayor in a small town has allocated

$40,000 for last-minute advertising in the days pre-

ceding the election. Two types of ads will be used:

radio and television. Each radio ad costs $200 and

reaches an estimated 3,000 people. Each television

ad costs $500 and reaches an estimated 7,000 people.

In planning the advertising campaign, the campaign

manager would like to reach as many people

as possible, but she has stipulated that at least 10 ads

of each type must be used. Also, the number of radio

ads must be at least as great as the number of television

ads. How many ads of each type should be

used? How many people will this reach?
