Read the following case and answer the question at the end:
As Zappos made its push toward holocracy, Hsieh decided to ramp
up the efforts to an even higher level: Teal. Hsieh sent out a
4,700 word e-mail to all employees entitled âReinventing Zappos:
The Road to Teal.â Teal, supposed to be the next stage of
development after holocracy, is characterized as âA new kind of
organization designed to enable âwholeâ individuals (not narrow
professional selves) to self-organize and self-manage to achieve an
organic organizational purpose.â In the memo, Hsieh essentially
told the remaining employees to get on board or get out. Hsieh was
not happy with the progress that had been made up to that point and
wrote, âin order to eliminate the legacy management hierarchy,
there will be effectively no more people managers.â John Bunch, the
employee in charge of the move to teal says, âTeal is the goal;
holocracy is the system.â
Hsieh even went as far as to offer the equivalent of three monthsâ
worth of salary to employees who would quit the organization if
they didnât feel they could fit in. Over 200 employees (14 percent)
took him up on the offerâa massive number of people given Zapposâs
normal turnover rate of 1 percent annually. Clearly, not everyone
felt comfortable in an organization with no clear leadership
structure and very little to no legitimate power. One departed
employee called holocracy âa social experiment [that] created chaos
and uncertainty.â Others felt like âmore employees are feeling like
favoritism [and management issues are] becoming a bigger problem.â
CEO Tony Hsieh remains undaunted. Hsieh says, âThe one thing Iâm
absolutely sure of is that the future is about
self-management.â
The move has not been bad for everyone. Less experienced
individuals with less expertise have felt energized by their
ability to speak up and have a voice. One employee whose prior boss
blocked a job transfer stated that as soon as he figured holocracy
out, âI was like, âActually, my boss canât tell me that.ââ Jake
McCrea, who teaches new hires about Zappos culture, states,
âHolacracy is like a sport or a new language. You can read about
it, you can hear people tell you about it, you wonât understand it
until you start using it.â Even through all the issues, Hsieh
stated, âIâve been surprised at how hard it is to let go of the
psychological baggage. In retrospect, I would have probably ripped
off the Band-Aid sooner.â
Do you think leadership skills would be more or less important at Zappos under holocracy? How so?

Create an ArrayListReview class with one data field of ArrayList and one with LinkedList with the generic type passed to the class. (2 point) 2. Create a constructor that populate an array list and the LinkedList filled with the generic type through inserting new elements into the specified location index-i in the list. (2 points) 3. You have been given the job of creating a new order processing system for the Yummy Fruit CompanyTM. The system reads pricing information for the various delicious varieties of fruit stocked by YFC, and then processes invoices from customers, determining the total amount for each invoice based on the type and quantity of fruit for each line item in the invoice. The program input starts with the pricing information. Each fruit price (single quantity) is specified on a single line, with the fruit name followed by the price. You can assume that each fruit name is a single word consisting of alphabetic characters (AâZ and aâz). You can also assume that prices will have exactly two decimal places after the decimal point. Fruit names and prices are separated by a single space character. The list of fruit prices is terminated by a single line consisting of the text END_PRICES. After the fruit prices, there will be one or more invoices. Each invoice consists of a series of line items. A line item is a fruit name followed by an integer quantity, with the fruit name and quantity separated by a single space. You can assume that no line item will specify a fruit name that is not specified in the fruit prices. Each invoice is terminated by a line consisting of the text END_INVOICE. As a special case, if a line with the text QUIT appears instead of the beginning of an invoice, the program should exit immediately. The overall input will always be terminated by a QUIT line. (5 points) Example input: orange 0.80 pomegranate 2.50 plum 1.20 peach 1.00 persimmon 1.75 lime 0.60 END_PRICES persimmon 2 orange 3 peach 1 plum 10 pomegranate 5 END_INVOICE peach 11 plum 5 orange 1 lime 9 END_INVOICE QUIT For each invoice, the program should print a single line of the form Total: X.YY where X.YY is the total cost of the invoice, which is the sum of the costs of all of the line items in the invoice. The cost should be printed with exactly two digits after the decimal point. Example output (corresponding to the input shown above): Total: 31.40 Total: 23.20 4. Implement insertionSort.

Question 6
How often should policies and procedures be updated?
Question 7
Who performs the updates to policies and procedures?
In your own words, ( not an answer from the same question on chegg) Select one issue from the Transitional Care scenario in the Allied Health Community and write a new policy and procedure related to the issue. Write a 500-word memo to your supervisor that describes this issue and an explanation of how the new policy and procedure will resolve the issue. In the memo, include a draft of the policy and procedure. Be sure to include the research on industry standards that helped you formulate the policy and procedure.
Scenario: As the Director of Human Resources at a transitional health care organization, you are charged with the overall administration of over 700 health care professional employees. This transitional health care organization is currently celebrating its 40th year in the community and serves as a model organization envied by local competitors. As the Director of Human Resources, you are responsible for hiring, orientation, training and development, compensation and benefits, and employee relations. Given the long existence of the organization, there have been many instances where management has been tasked with creating or modifying the company personnel policies and procedures. You have recently met with the CEO regarding some topics related to human resources, including the concern that the facility is experiencing some complaints regarding management, especially in the area of employee-related adverse actions. Some employees complain that they are being unfairly singled out for corrective actions and progressive discipline. They claim that current policies are being unfairly administered and some of the policies are out of date. Additionally, there have been too many medication errors and harmful patient treatments by the nursing staff that have resulted in nursing management creating new policies and procedures in an effort to fix immediate issues. The CEO has directed you to resolve these issues. Given the above scenario, respond to each question with and include references to support your proposed solution.

HOME CARE SCENARIO: Quality Improvement through Risk Management
Scenario
The long-term care center has 225 beds and provides the highest level of patient care, according to ongoing Department of Health Services annual surveys. The Director of the long-term center has the overall responsibility of ensuring the continuing high level of quality outcomes while also concurrently keeping the facility as risk free as practical. You and the Director have just returned from an annual Long-Term Care Association symposium where you were both introduced to some new groundbreaking initiatives regarding the differences between risk management and quality improvement.
Earlier in the week, the Director called for a meeting of the centerâs department managers, including the Quality Assurance Nurse and the Manager of Risk Management. After briefing them on the symposium talking points, your Director asks you to come up with a working plan and strategy for how the facility will use both of the concepts you have introduced to arrive at a more centralized and standardized approach. Overall, the desired outcomes focus on adopting a new approach to higher quality with fewer risk factors for the organization.
Later that week, the Manager of Risk Management, the Manager of Nursing Quality Assurance, and a representative from Human Resources met to formulate a new plan to reduce the litigation exposure while concurrently increasing the quality of patient outcomes. They set about the complex set of tasks with the expectation that you, as the Directorâs designated facilitator, will be closely reviewing their final recommendations.
Provide a 250-word executive summary of the research project and recommended plan of action that you will provide to the Director.
Address the following:
Questions:
1.What is the necessary background information needed to complete your executive summary?Who are the stakeholders?
2. How do the facilityâs current Continuous Quality Improvement (CQI) outcomes correspond with the current litigation prevention systems?
3.What factors within the nursing units are the most critical to consider when examining higher quality outcomes?
4.What factors within the nursing units are the most critical to consider when examining lower litigation adverse actions and operational impact?
5.What future steps must be taken to accomplish this directive?

4-5. List the junior level COSC courses (like COSC3xxx) and the name of the course. Use the Course table.
4-6. Using the COUNT feature, determine whether there are duplicate
names or student numbers in the Student table.
4-7. Assume all math courses start with MATH. How many math courses
are there in the Section table? From the COUNT of courses, does it
appear there are any math courses in the Section table not in the
Course table? Again, using COUNTs, are there any math courses in
the Course table not in the Section table? Does it appear there are
any courses at all in the Grade_report, Section, or Course tables
not in the others? (We will study how to ask these questions in SQL
in a later chapter). A query like the following would not work:
SELECT g.section_id
FROM Grade_report g, Section t
WHERE g.section_id <> t.section_id;
Explain why WHERE .. <> .. will not work to produce the
desired output.
4-8. Display dictionary views for the tables we have in the
Student-Course database (refer to the diagram in Appendix 3 for all
the table names). Use âAll_tablesâ as the dictionary view. Do the
query as follows:
a. DESCRIBE the table with DESC All_tables;
b. Display the number of rows in All_tables. Use SELECT COUNT(*) FROM All_tables; When you are exploring the dictionary, it is not a good idea to simply SELECT * FROM whatever, where whatever is some dictionary view. Dictionary views are often long and wide --wide because there are often many attributes and many of those attributes are not necessarily interesting.
c. Display the owner and table_name from All_tables where owner =
âyour useridâ.
CREATE THE TABLE FOR only for Student, GradeReport, and Section QUESTION 4-9.
4-9. For all the tables in the Student-Course database
--Student, Grade_report, Section, Room, Course, Prereq,
Department_to_major, list the attributes, number of rows, number of
distinct rows, and number of rows without nulls. As you gather the
information, put the information in a tabular format, as shown
below (Note, you may want to create this table in your word
processor as you gather the information.)
Table Attribute Rows Distinct Rows Rows without Nulls Student
stno
48
sname major
class Section section_id etc.
Also, there is probably no âoneâ query to give you this
information. You will have to fi nd this information using separate
queries, and then put the information together in a tabular format.
Hint: You can use:
SELECT COUNT (*) FROM Student WHERE sname IS NULL
