For each thread, students must support their assertions with scholarly citations in APA format. Each reply must incorporate scholarly citations in APA format. Any sources cited must have been published within the last five years. • At least 1 scholarly article or biblical integration; Discussion Board 4 you think it is possible for an outsider to accurately discern about the underlying cultural values of an organization by analyzing symbols, ceremonies, dress, or other observable aspects of culture in comparison to an insider with several years of work experience? Select a percentage (e.g., 10%, 70%, etc.) and explain your reasoning. ORDER NOW FOR CUSTOMIZED AND ORIGINAL ESSAY PAPERS It is possible for an outside to accurately discern and recognize the underlying cultural values of an organization by doing some research about the company and the culture within a particular country. It is challenging to put a direct percentage on an outsider’s perception because each person is different. There are two levels of corporate culture. The top level (surface) is where people observe the way people dress and act, the physical layouts of the company, power structures, symbols used by the company, stories and ceremonies that the employees share. The bottom level are those things that go deeper and under the surface. They are the underlying values (openness, relationship, fairness, and teamwork), assumptions, beliefs, attitudes, and feeling (Daft, 2016). What you see on the outside will expose what is going on under the surface. The scripture that comes to mind is Luke 6:45, “A good man out of the good treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is good; and an evil man out of the evil treasure of his heart bringeth forth that which is evil: for of the abundance of the heart his mouth speaketh” (KJV). A noted organization theorist once said, ”Pressure for change originates in the environment. Pressure for stability originates within the organization.” Do you agree? Change means to make a shift from one thing to another or replacing something for another. Not everyone likes change. Some like things just the way they are, but in order to grow one must change. Many companies have a tendency to change when the environment forces them to change in order to handle the competition, technology advances, and other pressures. They must be willing to move with the times and adjust their operation process. The organization ought to change its approach to survive, thrive, and grow. There is a quote that I saw once, “If we don’t change, we don’t grow. If we don’t grow, we aren’t really living.” Changes in the environment usually create pressure for changes to be made whether it be in a business or our own personal lives. According to Daft, there are four types of innovation and change that managers focus on within an organization and they are strategy and structure, products and services, culture, and technology (2016). Stability is the ability to withstand a short-term problem for example, a reduction in sales or a loss of a significant employee or customer. A growing and prosperous company is one that can support the employees of the company well. Stability truly comes from the decisions made at the core of a company. This happens within so that growth and progress can occur (Daft, 2016). If managers frequently use experience and intuition to make complex, non-programmed decisions, how do they apply evidence-based management (which seems to suggest that managers should rely on facts and data)? Managers may have a situation that arises that they have never seen before and do not know exactly how to handle it so they use non-programmed decisions. They are based on judgment, intuition and creativity because the answer is not found in a procedures manual. It will require some assessing, brainstorming, observation and some trial and error (Wroblewski, 2019). Evidence-based management is an obligation is made to make more informed, educated and intelligent decisions based on evidence and facts. When managers seek out the evidence, they can avoid faulty assumptions. The financial and operation outcome will be better than making non-programmed decisions. A manager can create an environment which will allow them to make decisions based on experience and data that is collection in order for accurate reporting and accounting (Daft, 2016). In a rapidly changing organization, are decisions more likely to be made using the rational or political model of organization? Rapidly changing organizations must remain flexible and innovative while also maintaining stability through change. In order for an organization to improve the quality of decision making process you need both the rational and political model. A rational model is when a goal is consistent and clearly defined and problems can be logically solved. This model is limited to reasonably simple problems. A company can use this method when time is available and you can go through the systematic and logical process. There may be less rivalry and debate between the managers and others in the decision making process because everything is already outlined clearly. The political model of an organization is when goals are not specific or agreed upon because there are different views and values which bring about a conflict. This model may be detrimental to the company as a whole because it may bring about favoritism or unfair advantages (Daft, 2016). A study was used in The Netherlands on a particular decision making project. The political decision making process was used in the second phase and rational decision making was in the third phase (Kolbe, 2019). They were all a contribution to the different phase of decision making. An article stated that if people do not consider all the variables taking place in a situation than you take the risk of being wrong in our assumptions (Veiga, 2019). This is why it is good to use both models when making a decision.What biblical implications should be included/addressed? How can/should a biblical worldview be applied?The world is always changing and God commands us to change if we want to grow in Him. Just like a company needs to make some changes if they want to continue to grow and become successful with the competition. Change is an integral part of the personal and business development journey and should be embraced. The Bible teaches us the importance of changing and growing. One example is found in Romans 12:2, “And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God” (KJV). Another example is found in Ephesians 4:20-24, “But ye have not so learned Christ; If so be that ye have heard him, and have been taught by him, as the truth is in Jesus: That ye put off concerning the former conversation the old man, which is corrupt according to the deceitful lusts; And be renewed in the spirit of your mind; And that ye put on the new man, which after God is created in righteousness and true holiness” (KJV). There is another scripture reference that refers to providing evidence to back up the facts. Jesus provided proof to his apostles in Acts 1:3, “To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion by many infallible proofs, being seen of them forty days, and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God” (KJV). There is proof that the Bible is true through archaeology findings and other historical writings. References Daft, R. L. (2016). Organization theory & design (12th ed.). Boston, MA: Cengage Learning.

ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS Discussion Questions (DQ) Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words. Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source. One or two sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words. I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses. Weekly Participation Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately. In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies. Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work). Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week. APA Format and Writing Quality Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required). Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation. I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition. Use of Direct Quotes I discourage overutilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Masters’ level and deduct points accordingly. As Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content. It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source.

Papers with numerous misspelled words and grammatical mistakes will be penalized. Read over your paper – in silence and then aloud – before handing it in and make corrections as necessary. Often it is advantageous to have a friend proofread your paper for obvious errors. Handwritten corrections are preferable to uncorrected mistakes. Use a standard 10 to 12 point (10 to 12 characters per inch) typeface. Smaller or compressed type and papers with small margins or single-spacing are hard to read. It is better to let your essay run over the recommended number of pages than to try to compress it into fewer pages. Likewise, large type, large margins, large indentations, triple-spacing, increased leading (space between lines), increased kerning (space between letters), and any other such attempts at “padding” to increase the length of a paper are unacceptable, wasteful of trees, and will not fool your professor. The paper must be neatly formatted, double-spaced with a one-inch margin on the top, bottom, and sides of each page. When submitting hard copy, be sure to use white paper and print out using dark ink. If it is hard to read your essay, it will also be hard to follow your argument. ADDITIONAL INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE CLASS Discussion Questions (DQ) Initial responses to the DQ should address all components of the questions asked, include a minimum of one scholarly source, and be at least 250 words. Successful responses are substantive (i.e., add something new to the discussion, engage others in the discussion, well-developed idea) and include at least one scholarly source. One or two sentence responses, simple statements of agreement or “good post,” and responses that are off-topic will not count as substantive. Substantive responses should be at least 150 words. I encourage you to incorporate the readings from the week (as applicable) into your responses. Weekly Participation Your initial responses to the mandatory DQ do not count toward participation and are graded separately. In addition to the DQ responses, you must post at least one reply to peers (or me) on three separate days, for a total of three replies. Participation posts do not require a scholarly source/citation (unless you cite someone else’s work). Part of your weekly participation includes viewing the weekly announcement and attesting to watching it in the comments. These announcements are made to ensure you understand everything that is due during the week. APA Format and Writing Quality Familiarize yourself with APA format and practice using it correctly. It is used for most writing assignments for your degree. Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for APA paper templates, citation examples, tips, etc. Points will be deducted for poor use of APA format or absence of APA format (if required). Cite all sources of information! When in doubt, cite the source. Paraphrasing also requires a citation. I highly recommend using the APA Publication Manual, 6th edition. Use of Direct Quotes I discourage overutilization of direct quotes in DQs and assignments at the Masters’ level and deduct points accordingly. As Masters’ level students, it is important that you be able to critically analyze and interpret information from journal articles and other resources. Simply restating someone else’s words does not demonstrate an understanding of the content or critical analysis of the content. It is best to paraphrase content and cite your source. LopesWrite Policy For assignments that need to be submitted to LopesWrite, please be sure you have received your report and Similarity Index (SI) percentage BEFORE you do a “final submit” to me. Once you have received your report, please review it. This report will show you grammatical, punctuation, and spelling errors that can easily be fixed. Take the extra few minutes to review instead of getting counted off for these mistakes. Review your similarities. Did you forget to cite something? Did you not paraphrase well enough? Is your paper made up of someone else’s thoughts more than your own? Visit the Writing Center in the Student Success Center, under the Resources tab in LoudCloud for tips on improving your paper and SI score. Late Policy The university’s policy on late assignments is 10% penalty PER DAY LATE. This also applies to late DQ replies. Please communicate with me if you anticipate having to submit an assignment late. I am happy to be flexible, with advance notice. We may be able to work out an extension based on extenuating circumstances. If you do not communicate with me before submitting an assignment late, the GCU late policy will be in effect. I do not accept assignments that are two or more weeks late unless we have worked out an extension. As per policy, no assignments are accepted after the last day of class. Any assignment submitted after midnight on the last day of class will not be accepted for grading. Communication Communication is so very important. There are multiple ways to communicate with me: Questions to Instructor Forum: This is a great place to ask course content or assignment questions. If you have a question, there is a good chance one of your peers does as well. This is a public forum for the class. Individual Forum: This is a private forum to ask me questions or send me messages. This will be checked at least once every 24 hours. Get a 10 % discount on an order above $ 100 Use the following coupon code : NURSING10
