Defending the Self
How do you respond to blame? Do you justify your actions, make an excuse, or refuse to admit any wrongdoing? Do you admit you are wrong and apologize?
When confronted with blame, consider your relationship with the people in the situation. How do those relationships influence your defensive account? Your choices when defending yourself have far-reaching consequences if mishandled. As you negotiate these situations, the importance of politeness, saving face, and maintaining a positive public image come into play.
In this Discussion, you analyze defensive strategies in a business environment. You also differentiate the internal and external reasons behind different types of defensive accounts.
To prepare:
Review this week’s Learning Resources.
Think about a business scenario in which someone defended himself or herself with a justification or excuse. You could be involved, or you could be an observer.
Consider the use of defensive strategies in a business environment.
Consider the relationship between internal and external rationale.
With these thoughts in mind:
Post at least 250 words responding to the following:
Describe the business scenario related to the justification or excuse.
Explain the defensive strategies you noticed.
Was the reason for the justification or excuse internal or external? Why does this matter?

Your Assessment: Basically, I want you to know the types of issues these groups are involved in and whether they are generally supporters of liberals or conservatives, or are non-ideological. If you were to be given an issue, you should know which interest groups would be involved. For example, if the issue is an affordable medication for seniors, you should be able to identify AARP as a group (among others) who advocate for this issue. The groups with an asterisk are among the most active and therefore receive considerable more attention by media outlets for their activities.
Group: NAACP – National Association of Colored People*
Assess your group: What are its strengths and weaknesses?
