Prepare a 700- to 1,050-word paper in which you analyze the relationship between productive and counterproductive behavior in organizations. As a part of your analysis be sure to address the following items:

• Define productive behavior and counterproductive behavior.

• Describe the impact that productive and counterproductive behaviors have on job performance and the overall performance of an organization.

• Recommend strategies to increase productive behavior and decrease counterproductive behavior in organizations.

• Three references are required

Paper should be in APA format, Times New Roman, 12 point font, double spaced.
Here are the instructions for the assignment:
Describe an experience of conflict with a friend or family member (this can be made-up).
Step 1. Describe a conflict you experienced sometime in your life between you and a friend or family member. It could be at work or at home – or when you were a child. (This can be made-up).
Step 2. Take this and use it as seeds and map out a plot for your short story. Remember, just because the plot comes from your own experience, that doesn’t mean you have to stick to your experience. As you develop your plot, you can begin to invent actions and characters, even the source of conflict or how things are resolved. You can also place the story in a different setting. Instead of Minnesota , it could be in Paris or Nevada . Of course, you might want to stick to what you know!
In outlining your plot, remember that it is an outline! Stick to the plot details – don’t try to write the whole story! Most plots have an opening incident that gets the conflict going. Then the conflict builds to a climax. The climax is the high point of the story. The part of the story after the climax is relatively short. It is called the "denouement" or ending, and brings out what the character learns or how he or she changes.
At the end of your plot outline, write a one-sentence theme of the story. It should capture what you think the story is saying about how people live. A thesis might be: "True friends are loyal."

Here is a sample journal entry that provides the seed for plot outline and theme (Simplified)
JOURNAL ENTRY: When I was little, my mother asked me to take some yarn to Grandma’s house. She told me not to talk to any strangers on the way, but I disobeyed and talked to a friendly lion. The lion found out where I was going and ran ahead and swallowed Grandma and got in her bed. When I got to Grandma’s, the lion chased me up on the roof. Luckily Dad came running over and chased the lion away.
PLOT: (Opening scene) In the opening scene, a mother and daughter are baking cookies. (Initial incident to introduce conflict) Then Mom asks the daughter to take a basket of cookies through the woods to Grandmother’s house. Mom warns the daughter to walk quickly and not talk to strangers because a wolf lives in the woods. The daughter puts on her red riding hood and starts into the woods. (Conflict increases) She forgets her mother’s warning and talks to a friendly fellow (the wolf!) who asks her where she is going. The little girl tells him everything and then goes on her way. (Meanwhile, the wolf runs ahead, locks Grandma in the closet and jumps into her bed.) Soon the little girl comes to Grandmother’s house, knocks on the door, and goes in. Grandmother looks funny. (Conflict nears the high point) Suspicious, the little girl asks questions until Grandmother – really the wolf – (climax) jumps out of bed and gobbles her up. (Ending or resolution) The little girl is terrified until a woodcutter comes along, cuts open the wolf, and rescues her. The little girl tells the woodcutter she will never disobey her mother again!
THEME: If children obey their parents, they won’t get into trouble; in our story, the little girl learns this lesson the hard way and determines she will never disobey again.

This assignment should include the plot summary and theme for your short story.

Based on Understanding Human Communication 11th Edition by Ronald B. Adler and George Rodman (ISBN 978-0-19-974738-2), read Chapter 8 & 9 and summarize. Tell me also how you apply on daily life.

Please use the correct grammar structure and use simple english.

A selection of films to choose from for Director Julie Dash

Julie Dash, race, cinematography
1. Daughters of the Dust
2. Illusions
3. The Rosa Parks Story (TV movie)

Each individual research paper must discuss at least one film of the list above. It needs to be 1750 words min, 2500 words max, double-spaced, 12pt font, times new roman. Pick a cool title and center it. Use numbered endnotes and be sure to include a Bibliography of sources that you have cited.
Must use a minimum of 3 sources and a maximum of 5 (books, journal articles, newspaper articles. NO WEBSITES. NO RANDOM BLOGS.)Your films do NOT count as a source.

Instructor’s words:
To get started on the paper, I would start watching a couple of the films from your director from the list, and think about what you see. Are there any patterns or motifs? Any recurring themes? Do your director use any particular cinematographic, editing, mise en scene, sound, or narrative device frequently? Did something in one of your director’s films really intrigue you? Make you angry? Make you smile? Confuse you? Why not try to formulate a research question around that reflection, then see what the literature says by finding a few articles about your director (or perhaps books, in some cases). When was your director’s heyday? What was happening in the world at that time (WWII? Viet Nam? Prohibition? Great Depression? L.A Riots? Civil Rights Act? Production Code Changes? CGI and 3D overtaking the screens? Screenwriters strike? Mobile cameras introduced? Smartphones?)? How does the political, industrial, social, economic era impact how your director’s films were made, distributed or exhibited? What are your director’s other’s films like in comparison, contrast? Is your director starting, continuing, or bucking contemporary trends? These are all great questions to ask yourself in order to formulate a research question, and then turn that research question into a thesis statement for your paper.

Write an essay about the following

How does the case of “Reinventing School Lunch” policy illustrate or not illustrate Heclo’s concept of issue networks?

please be very specific do not write in general. use both of
1- The article of The Issue networks an the executive establishment by Hugo Heclo
2- the case study ( School Lunch) by Lauras Sims, to answer above questions.
support your writing by giving examples from our life

the source is chapter 14 from the book of public administration concepts and cases ( 9th edition)

How should organizations ensure that customers don’t become frustrated but if they do how should they handle them after it occurs? Do potential and/or prospective buyers empathize with buyers who were frustrated?

Answer the questions and defend the positions you take in each of your answers.

Ensure that you repeat the assignment question (in bold above) in full and verbatim on the title sheet of your paper.

For its part, JetBlue claims not to care whether Congress wades into the issue. "From the start, our customer bill of rights was designed to be broader, deeper, and more meaningful for our customers than anything that will come out of Congress," says JetBlue spokesman Don Usselman.

Expectations

In preparing your CASE5; you need to demonstrate your learning of the concepts and frameworks for analysis outlined in the modular learning objectives. In particular, are expected to:
Give a brief definition of frustration and show the circumstances that cause buyer frustration

In preparing your 3-4 page paper, keep in mind that businesses need to be prepared for unforeseen events. What can the company do to prevent undesirable circumstances and what should the company do when faced with a problem or set of problems? In the case of Jet Blue, the company was faced with a crisis that threatened is immediate future. Jet Blue reacted quickly by stating its remedies and commitments to its customers before government intervention and mandates could be put into place that might have been less favorable to Jet Blue and the airline industry as a whole. Did the airline do the right thing?

Airline travel has changed and continues to change almost daily resulting from the rising cost of fuel. Changes include limiting the number of daily flights, providing bare-bones service to passengers, and rising ticket prices. Passengers are also less willing to tolerate inconveniences such as delayed flights and are now challenging the companies for those inconveniences.

Note that this assignment does NOT require you to prepare a detailed essay. Instead use section headings for each of the topics you address in your paper followed by a discussion of that topic.
