Values are those ideals, principles, and qualities upon which we place great importance. Shared values are those that permeate throughout an organization, ones that receive buy-in across all levels.
Values are those ideals, principles, and qualities upon which we place great importance. Shared values are those that permeate throughout an organization, ones that receive buy-in across all levels. When values are aligned between leaders and the organization, they create an environment of trust, high employee engagement, positive interaction, and strong commitment to the organization. Those factors, in turn, lead to higher levels of performance, innovation, and results.
Evaluating values is one way to assess human behavior. Analyzing motivation is another way to do so. Several psychologists developed key theories that help us understand the concept of motivation.
For example:
Maslow (1943) identified five levels of human need (physiological, safety, social, ego, and selfactualization).
Maslow, A. H. (1943). A theory of human motivation. Psychological Review, 50. 370–396.
Skinner (1953) believed that employee behaviors that result in positive responses will be repeated.
Skinner, B. F. (1953). Science and human behavior. New York, NY: Simon & Schuster.
Herzberg (1959) identified two types of motivators, intrinsic (recognition and achievement) and extrinsic (job security, benefits, and salary).
Herzberg, F. (1959). The motivation to work. San Francisco, CA: Wiley.
Vroom (1964) stated that employee output leads to performance and performance leads to rewards. Employees are motivated by how strongly they perceive the output/performance/rewards links.
Vroom, V. H. (1964). Work and motivation. San Francisco, CA: Jossey-Bass.
Adams (1965) theorized that employees seek equity among themselves.
Adams, J. S. (1965). Inequity in social exchange. In L. Berdowtz (Ed.). Advances in experiential social psychology (pp. 267–299). New York, NY: Academic Press.
Organizational research tends to suggest that leaders need to find ways to prevent de-motivation and ways to activate higher order motivators to build high performance and extraordinary organizations
For this week’s discussion, we’ll use a brief case study: Just-in-Time Company has had a longstanding culture of shared values including customer satisfaction, learning, respect, generosity, compassion, equality, and social justice.
The new CEO, Tina Jones, has worked long and hard in her career. She broke through the glass ceiling and earned the top seat in the company C-suite. Tina impressed the board of directors with her expertise, drive, and long list of accomplishments.
What the board did not discover, however, is that Tina’s primary motivation is the advancement of herself and her career; she hopes to be at the helm of Just-in-Time only as long as necessary before she pursues a more prestigious position at a larger company. Tina’s values are rapid career growth, money, status, public recognition, and earning a reputation as a no-nonsense, results-driven executive.
Begin your discussion by evaluating the issues you foresee with Tina as the new CEO.
- In particular, assess the role of values and motivation in the scenario by researching and applying one (or more) of the motivational theories surveyed above.
- What are some behaviors that Tina is likely to exhibit?
- What is the likely effect on the culture and climate of the organization?
This portion of your discussion should be about 1 page (500 words) in length.
Continue your discussion by analyzing the strategic leadership interventions that might be needed in this situation. Assume the role of consultant to recommend two interventions. Integrate the values and motivation concepts with the strategic leadership material that you have been studying in the course to formulate your recommendations. For example, what synergistic (shared) values do you see between her and the current organization that might be leveraged? Support your responses with rationale and with scholarly research.
This section of your discussion should also be about 1 page (500 words) in length.
The final paragraph (three or four sentences) of your initial post should summarize the one or two key points that you are making in your initial response.
Your initial posting should be the equivalent of 1 to 2 pages (500– 1000 words) in length.
Submission Details:
- Each Covered Heading must contain 3+ credible cited sources and a conclusion summarizing talking points.
- Due by 5/15/25 at 6:30pm CST
Requirements:
1. Make certain to include in text citations from your course text in addition to your outside leadership resources within your main post. This adds credibility to your argument.

Population Health Assessment & Prevention Project: Part 1 – Windshield Survey
For your Windshield Survey, the goal is to assess the health and well-being of a community or a specific neighborhood within that community. This section involves gathering data through direct observation. Below is an outline of how you can approach Part 1 of the Population Health Assessment & Prevention Project.
Instructions for Part 1: Windshield Survey
-
Choose a Community Area to Survey
-
If you’re in a large city (e.g., San Antonio, Cincinnati, Tampa), narrow down your focus to a smaller neighborhood. This will allow you to make more detailed observations.
-
Ideally, you want a section of the community that you can observe on foot and in a vehicle. This dual approach helps you capture both the big picture and the finer details.
-
-
Conduct the Survey
-
Time of Day: Consider surveying the community at different times, such as early morning, mid-day, or evening. This will allow you to capture variations in activity, safety, and behaviors.
-
Weekday vs. Weekend: Be sure to observe both weekdays and weekends, as the presence of people and activities will differ based on the day of the week.
-
Season: If possible, observe the community during different seasons. Weather and seasonal activities can impact public spaces, health behaviors, and other factors relevant to community health.
-
-
Key Areas of Focus During the Survey
Use a checklist or template to make sure you observe all necessary areas. Some key areas to focus on:-
Physical Environment: Look at housing quality, cleanliness of streets, condition of sidewalks, green spaces, and parks.
-
Are sidewalks in good condition for walking or biking?
-
Are there clean, well-maintained public spaces, or is there evidence of blight or environmental hazards like graffiti, trash, or pollution?
-
Are there parks or recreation areas? What is their condition? Are they safe or well-used by the community?
-
-
Access to Health Services:
-
Are there visible health facilities nearby (clinics, hospitals, pharmacies)?
-
Do people in the area have easy access to healthcare, or are facilities limited or difficult to reach?
-
Observe if there are areas without adequate emergency care facilities or public health centers.
-
-
Food Accessibility:
-
Are there grocery stores or food markets nearby, and what is the variety and quality of food available?
-
Is there evidence of food insecurity (e.g., a high prevalence of fast food, convenience stores, or lack of produce availability)?
-
-
Economic and Educational Opportunities:
-
Look for schools, libraries, or other educational institutions.
-
Are there employment opportunities visible, such as local businesses or industrial areas?
-
Do the area’s residents appear to have economic stability, or are there signs of poverty and unemployment (e.g., boarded-up houses, empty storefronts)?
-
-
Social Determinants of Health:
-
Observe the general behavior of the residents. Is there evidence of social cohesion or fragmentation?
-
How do people interact in public spaces? Are there groups of people gathered in parks, or is there visible isolation?
-
Are there factors such as crime or violence affecting residents’ health and well-being?
-
-
Health Behaviors and Community Culture:
-
Are there any health behaviors you can observe, such as smoking, exercising, or substance use?
-
What do public spaces indicate about the overall health culture in the community? For example, are there health campaigns or events happening?
-
-
-
Safety:
-
Always be aware of your surroundings and prioritize safety. Carry identification, and if you are walking or driving, make sure you follow all appropriate safety measures.
-
Do not stay in areas that feel unsafe, and be cautious about observing specific behaviors or situations that may be threatening.
-
-
Taking Notes and Documentation
-
As you conduct the survey, take detailed notes about your observations. Make sure to write down both what you see and how it might impact the health of the community.
-
You may also take photos or videos to help illustrate your findings, but remember to respect privacy and be unobtrusive.
-
If you wait too long to record your observations after completing the survey, you may forget crucial details.
-
Checklist for Windshield Survey
To ensure you cover all important areas during your windshield survey, here is a helpful checklist:
-
Physical Environment:
-
Sidewalks (condition, safety)
-
Streets (cleanliness, trash, pollution)
-
Parks and green spaces (maintenance, safety, accessibility)
-
Housing (quality, signs of neglect or blight)
-
-
Access to Health Services:
-
Health clinics, hospitals, pharmacies (location, accessibility, condition)
-
Emergency services (proximity, availability)
-
-
Food Accessibility:
-
Grocery stores and markets (location, variety, quality)
-
Food insecurity (prevalence of fast food, convenience stores)
-
-
Economic and Educational Opportunities:
-
Employment opportunities (visible businesses, industrial areas)
-
Schools, libraries, and community centers (availability, condition)
-
-
Social Determinants of Health:
-
Crime and safety (evidence of violence, crime rates)
-
Community engagement (public behaviors, interactions)
-
-
Health Behaviors:
-
Smoking, alcohol use, and substance use (prevalence, signs in public spaces)
-
Exercise and physical activity (evidence of active lifestyles, use of public recreational areas)
-
Final Steps
After completing your windshield survey, you will compile your notes and observations into a report, following the provided template. In your report, be sure to address the following:
-
Summary of Findings: Highlight the most important aspects of your survey, such as key environmental factors, accessibility to services, and community behaviors that may impact health outcomes.
-
Health Implications: Discuss the potential impact of your observations on community health. Are there areas that need intervention? What public health strategies could be implemented to improve the well-being of the community?
-
Suggestions for Improvement: Based on your findings, suggest any health promotion or disease prevention strategies that might help address identified issues in the community.
Remember, this is the first part of your population health assessment, and it sets the foundation for your future work on interventions and health promotion strategies.

Psychotherapy and the Role of the Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) Psychotherapy, a vital component in the treatment of mental health disorders, has often been misunderstood or devalued within the broader healthcare system. While medication management is often prioritized in psychiatric care, the therapeutic relationship fostered through psychotherapy can play a crucial role in addressing underlying psychological issues. As mental health care evolves, the role of the Psychiatric-Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) has become increasingly significant. The PMHNP, trained in both pharmacological and psychotherapeutic approaches, offers a unique perspective on integrating psychotherapy into patient care. This paper will discuss the role of the PMHNP as a psychotherapist, the feasibility of providing psychotherapy at each patient encounter, and the factors influencing this process.
Freud viewed dreams as the “royal road to the unconscious.” Discuss a memorable dream from your childhood. Provide as much detail about the dream as possible. falling and falling and at impact I land like nothing happened post should be at least 500 words, formatted, and cited in current APA style with support from at least 2 academic sources.
Here is a fully developed APA-style discussion post based on your childhood dream of falling and landing without harm, interpreted through Freudian psychoanalytic theory. This post meets the 500-word requirement and includes scholarly citations. Exploring the Unconscious: A Freudian Interpretation of a Childhood Dream Sigmund Freud famously described dreams as the “royal road to the unconscious,” suggesting that they offer a privileged glimpse into the hidden desires, fears, and conflicts that influence behavior (Freud, 1900/2010). One of my most vivid childhood dreams reflects this theory. The dream repeatedly involved falling from a great height—sometimes from a cliff, a building, or an undefined space—and just as I was about to hit the ground, I would land softly, unharmed, as if gravity no longer applied. This dream recurred throughout my early years, particularly during moments of stress or change. In Freud’s The Interpretation of Dreams (1900/2010), falling dreams are associated with feelings of insecurity, loss of control, or anxiety about failing in life. Freud often tied the sensation of falling to the return of repressed wishes or unresolved developmental conflicts. In my case, the sensation of falling could reflect anxieties typical of childhood—academic pressures, fear of disappointing authority figures, or uncertainty in a shifting family environment. These feelings may have manifested symbolically in the falling motion, suggesting that I subconsciously felt I was metaphorically “falling short.” Interestingly, Freud also proposed that dreams are wish-fulfillments disguised through symbols (Freud, 1900/2010). While the act of falling may represent fear, the gentle landing could be a disguised wish that, despite my worries or perceived failures, I would emerge unscathed. This aspect of the dream—impact without injury—may serve as a form of psychological reassurance. The unconscious, in this case, may have been communicating a desire for safety, resolution, or inner strength in the face of vulnerability. Modern psychoanalytic theorists and researchers have expanded upon Freud’s ideas. For example, Solms (2020) argues that dreams provide a window into emotional processing and unconscious affect regulation. My recurring dream, viewed through this lens, may represent the integration of emotional conflict—falling as a representation of fear or stress, and landing unharmed as a symbol of psychological resilience or adaptive coping. Jungian theory might also provide complementary insights. Carl Jung diverged from Freud by focusing on the symbolic and collective unconscious. A Jungian might interpret the dream as a representation of the “hero’s journey,” where falling represents a descent into the unconscious and the soft landing symbolizes rebirth, learning, or transformation (Jung, 1964). Even as a child, the dream may have indicated an unconscious journey toward integrating fear with inner strength or transformation. In essence, this childhood dream serves as a profound example of Freud’s assertion that dreams are meaningful and offer access to the unconscious mind. Though the fear of falling dominated the experience, the landing without consequence suggests deeper emotional processes—perhaps a longing for stability or affirmation—that were being negotiated within my psyche. Whether viewed through the lens of Freud’s drive theory or Jung’s archetypal symbolism, the dream reveals the layered complexity of the human mind and underscores the therapeutic potential of dream interpretation.

Intuitively, the strategic allocation of resources is known in business. However, many of the nuances and calculations, as well as the importance to other functional areas, may not be known. As a result, those that are not “math” or “accounting” oriented tend to shy away from this concept.
Based upon your own experience and/or insights (first person is allowed for this discussion),
(1) provide what you think is meant when you hear the term strategic allocation of resources,
(2) what you hope to gain from this course,
(3) areas that you may not understand, and
(4) the importance of this concept to the broader areas of business.
Strategic Allocation of Resources – A Personal Perspective
(1) What I Think Is Meant by “Strategic Allocation of Resources”
When I hear the term strategic allocation of resources, I interpret it as the thoughtful and purposeful distribution of limited resources—such as time, money, labor, and materials—across various areas of a business to maximize efficiency and achieve long-term goals. To me, it means aligning resource use with organizational priorities, ensuring that every dollar or hour spent contributes meaningfully to business objectives. It’s not just about budgeting—it’s about investing resources in the right projects, departments, or initiatives at the right time. For example, in my workplace, we had to decide whether to invest in new equipment or expand the sales team. That decision came down to identifying which option would offer the greatest return in the long run, which is a classic
