All employees and interns take turns presenting each Thursday at noon at the staff luncheon. You have only been an intern for a few months and are not sure what information you could present to the staff that would be useful. One program within the pretrial diversion program that your supervisor, Sarah Harris, is working on is employment opportunities in the criminal justice field for individuals who have successfully completed the pretrial diversion program and are interested in attending college. She has secured a significant grant from the state to implement this pilot project. Ms. Harris suggests that you present on the different types of careers in the criminal justice field that individuals who have successfully completed the pretrial diversion program could apply for once they have completed their college education. The funding she has received from the state is for use in assisting these successful candidates to apply to college and for tuition reimbursement for their first year. Ms. Harris gives you the following guidelines to use for your presentation:

Mutual funds can effectively charge ales fees in one of three ways: front-end load fees, 12b-1 (i.e. annual) fees, or deferred (i.e. back-end) load fees. Assume that the SAS Fund offers its investors the choice of the following sales fee arrangements: (1) a 3% front-end load, (2) a 0.50 percent annual deduction, or (3) a 2 percent back-end load, paid at the liquidation of the investor’s position. Also, assume that SAS Fund averages NAV growth of 12 percent per year.
A. If you start with $100,000 in investment capital, calculate wha an investment in SAS would be worth in 3 years under each of the proposed sales fee schemes. Which scheme would you choose?
B. If your investment horizon were 10 years, would your answer in part A change? Demonstrate why or why not.
C. Explain the relationship between the timing of the sales charge and your investment horizon. In general, if you intend to hold your position for a long time, which fee arrangement would you prefer?

Leadership Development Plan
Great leadership is often obvious in hindsight, when history reveals the end of a particular event or story. Predicting the types of leaders needed to take public health into the future, however, remains elusive. Many theories and types of leadership abound, from situational to adaptive to transformational and beyond. As a future public health professional, it is important to grasp these frameworks, but within these are leadership competencies that are constantly evolving and shifting as the landscape of public health shifts.
Developing into an effective leader is a lifelong process. Shi and Johnson liken it to the Native American symbol of the ever-ascending spiral (2014) with upward progress based on goals. The critical need for leadership training has long been noted. Yet, any training must begin with a baseline of self-awareness of leadership competencies an individual possesses as well as a plan for developing those competencies still needed to effectively lead. But with any journey toward a goal, one must have a clear destination in mind. The National Public Health Leadership Network has developed the “Public Health Leadership Competency Framework,” which provides a good starting point for gaining self-awareness.
For this week’s Assignment, review the Learning Resources. Complete one of the assessments (e.g., Turning Point Assessment) of your leadership style and competencies. Use the results from the assessment as a starting point for developing your leadership development plan.

Week 2 – Discussion 2
Your initial discussion thread is due on Day 3 (Thursday) and you have until Day 7 (Monday) to respond to your classmates. Your grade will reflect both the quality of your initial post and the depth of your responses. Reference the Discussion Forum Grading Rubric for guidance on how your discussion will be evaluated.
Legal Liability
A surgeon performs elective surgery on John Smith. Smith later complains to his surgeon about pain resulting from the surgery. His surgeon dismisses his complaints as not credible and eventually withdraws from the case. Smith is then treated by another surgeon, who determines that Smith developed complications from surgery and that the delay in treatment has made the complications worse. Smith sees an attorney about a possible lawsuit against the first surgeon. (Case Study, p.88)
Based upon the information above, describe at least two theories of liability that could support a lawsuit under these circumstances. Be sure to discuss each theory in detail and thoroughly explain the rational for your choices. What are the potential defenses and limitations of the liability theories you have chosen?
Guided Response: Review several of your classmates’ posts. Provide a substantive response to at least two of your peers, specifically, those who chose a different theory of liability than you did. How does the theory they selected also support a lawsuit in this case? Did they support their choice with adequate reasoning? Would another theory be more or less appropriate, in your opinion?
