Ensuring appropriate communication in teams is essential. The dynamics of a global economy has increased the complexity of both team operations and project success. Planning for communication creates a schedule for planned communication and reinforces the trait among team members. In projects, a RACI (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, and Informed) chart is often created to ensure that all of the different stakeholders are included at the right level of communication. In addition, communication plans are also developed to plan out a schedule for the frequency of communication.

As a manager of the technical team, you are leading your entire team on a project. Your project team is geographically dispersed with developers in Phoenix and India. You use the "follow-the-sun" approach to development. Therefore, your U.S. team will transfer development to India in the evening and there is another transfer back to the U.S. in the morning. You are implementing updates for new functionality to the CRM application for the call center, which has locations in Phoenix and India.

Create a RACI chart and a 500-750 word communication plan in which you accomplish the following:

Identify what needs to be communicated and the stakeholders in the RACI chart.

Assign the appropriate designation to the stakeholder for the item that requires communication (Responsible, Accountable, Consulted, Informed).

Create a communication plan for the stakeholders to include method and frequency of communication.

Create a communication plan for your project team to include method and frequency of communication.

Scenario: You are the CEO of MegaGlobe Business Solutions, a financial consulting corporation based in Chicago that has just recently opened new offices in São Paulo, Brazil and Shenzhen, Guangdong, China. As part of this transition, your employees will now be working collaboratively with employees at these locations to provide financial consulting services in these new markets. To assist with the transition, you will develop an internal leadership blog for your employees that addresses the implications of leading within a culturally-diverse and changing global business environment. This blog should focus on the need to positively adapt to a variety of leadership styles and individual differences within these cultures.

View the videos listed in this week's classroom materials for ideas about how to effectively lead, motivate, and communicate with your employees about the need to adapt within this changing business environment.

Write a 700- to 1,050-word internal leadership blog using the Leadership Blog template, and include the following:

Explain the implications of leading within a changing global business environment.

Describe the Team Leadership Model and how this relates to your current business practices.

Outline positive aspects of gender, diversity, culture, and teamwork that can improve overall business performance.

Apply principles of motivational leadership within a variety of diverse cultures.

C++ Zybook Lab 16.5 LAB: Exception handling to detect input string vs. int

The given program reads a list of single-word first names and ages (ending with -1), and outputs that list with the age incremented. The program fails and throws an exception if the second input on a line is a string rather than an int. At FIXME in the code, add a try/catch statement to catch ios_base::failure, and output 0 for the age.

Ex: If the input is:

Lee 18
Lua 21
Mary Beth 19
Stu 33
-1

then the output is:

Lee 19
Lua 22
Mary 0
Stu 34

Here's the code:

#include <string>
#include <iostream>

using namespace std;

int main(int argc, char* argv[]) {
string inputName;
int age;
// Set exception mask for cin stream
cin.exceptions(ios::failbit);

cin >> inputName;
while(inputName != "-1") {
// FIXME: The following line will throw an ios_base::failure.
// Insert a try/catch statement to catch the exception.
// Clear cin's failbit to put cin in a useable state.
try{
//Reading age
cin >> age;
//Printing Name and age incremented by 1 if correct values are entered
cout << inputName << " " << (age + 1) << endl;
}
catch(ios_base::failure){
//Clear cin
cin.clear();
}
  
cin >> age;
cout << inputName << " " << (age + 1) << endl;

cin >> inputName;
}

return 0;
}

There are at least five (probably more) places in the attached C# program code that could be optimized. Find at least five things in the Program.cs file that can be changed to make the program as efficient as possible.

1. List five problems you found with the code (Put your list either in comments within the code or in a separate Word or text document), and then optimize the code in the attached code below to make it as efficient as possible. The program output must not be affected by your changes. To the user it should still do everything it did before your changes provided the user enters valid data.

Web Server Infrastructure

Web application infrastructure includes sub-components and external applications that provide efficiency, scalability, reliability, robustness, and most critically, security.

• The same advancements made in web applications that provide users these conveniences are the same components that criminal hackers use to exploit them. Prudent security administrators need to be aware of how to harden such systems.

Use the graphic below to answer the following questions:

1. What stage is the most inner part of the web architecture where data such as, customer names, addresses, account numbers, and credit card info, is stored?

2. Which stage includes online forms, word processors, shopping carts, video and photo editing, spreadsheets, file scanning, file conversion, and email programs such as G mail, Yahoo and AOL.

3. What stage is the component that stores files (e.g. HTML documents, images, CSS stylesheets, and JavaScript files) that's connected to the Internet and provides support for physical data interactions between other devices connected to the web?

4. What stage is where the end user interacts with the World Wide Web through the use of a web browser?
5. Which stage is designed to prevent unauthorized access to and from protected web server resources?

1. Acting Secretary Modly violated one of the accepted principles of good leadership, “praise in public and criticize in private” (ideally one-on-one). What are a few likely reasons that some leaders succumb to the impulse to be harsh and criticize subordinates in public?

2. Before his apology, Acting Secretary Modly issued a statement earlier in the day about his remarks aboard the ship, saying he spoke from the heart and that his words were meant for the crew. “I stand by every word I said, even, regrettably any profanity that may have been used for emphasis,” he said. “Anyone who has served on a Navy ship would understand.” In other words, it’s OK to use profanity in the Navy Why do leaders often use the “acted-of-normalcy” defense (i.e., this is how it’s done around here) to justify their bad actions?

3. Acting Secretary Modly told the crew of the USS Roosevelt not to speak to the media, which he said holds a political agenda. Mr. Modly himself has conducted interviews with Reuters and the Washington Post and published the letter to the editor in the New York Times. Why do some leaders feel that they can operate under different rules than those whom they lead? What steps can a leader take to protect him/herself from these types of tendencies?

IN JAVA

12.11 PRACTICE: Branches*: Listing names

A university has a web page that displays the instructors for a course, using the following algorithm: If only one instructor exists, the instructor's first initial and last name are listed. If two instructors exist, only their last names are listed, separated by /. If three exist, only the first two are listed, with "/ …" following the second. If none exist, print "TBD". Given six words representing three first and last names (each name a single word; latter names may be "none none"), output one line of text listing the instructors' names using the algorithm. If the input is "Ann Jones none none none none", the output is "A. Jones". If the input is "Ann Jones Mike Smith Lee Nguyen" then the output is "Jones / Smith / …".

Hints:

• Use an if-else statement with four branches. The first detects the situation of no instructors. The second one instructor. Etc.

• Detect whether an instructor exists by checking if the first name is "none".
