Assignment: Global Healthcare Comparison Matrix and Narrative Statement

If you talk about a possible poor health outcome, do you believe that outcome will occur? Do you believe eye contact and personal contact should be avoided?

You would have a difficult time practicing as a nurse if you believed these to be true. But they are very real beliefs in some cultures.

Differences in cultural beliefs, subcultures, religion, ethnic customs, dietary customs, language, and a host of other factors contribute to the complex environment that surrounds global healthcare issues. Failure to understand and account for these differences can create a gulf between practitioners and the public they serve.

In this Assignment, you will examine a global health issue and consider the approach to this issue by the United States and by one other country.

To Prepare:

  • Review the World Health Organization’s (WHO) global health agenda and select one global health issue to focus on for this Assignment.
  • Select at least one additional country to compare to the U.S. for this Assignment.
  • Reflect on how the global health issue you selected is approached in the U.S. and in the additional country you selected.
  • Review and download the Global Health Comparison Matrix provided in the Resources.

The Assignment: (1- to 2-page Global Health Comparison Matrix; 1-page Plan for Social Change)

Part 1: Global Health Comparison Matrix

Focusing on the country you selected and the U.S., complete the Global Health Comparison Matrix. Be sure to address the following:

  • Consider the U.S. national/federal health policies that have been adapted for the global health issue you selected from the WHO global health agenda. Compare these policies to the additional country you selected for study.
  • Explain the strengths and weaknesses of each policy.
  • Explain how the social determinants of health may impact the global health issue you selected. Be specific and provide examples.
  • Using the WHO’s Organization’s global health agenda as well as the results of your own research, analyze how each country’s government addresses cost, quality, and access to the global health issue selected.
  • Explain how the health policy you selected might impact the health of the global population. Be specific and provide examples.
  • Explain how the health policy you selected might impact the role of the nurse in each country.
  • Explain how global health issues impact local healthcare organizations and policies in both countries. Be specific and provide examples.

Part 2: A Plan for Social Change

Reflect on the global health policy comparison and analysis you conducted in Part 1 of the Assignment and the impact that global health issues may have on the world, the U.S., your community, as well as your practice as a nurse leader.

In a 1-page response, create a plan for social change that incorporates a global perspective or lens into your local practice and role as a nurse leader.

  • Explain how you would advocate for the incorporation of a global perspective or lens into your local practice and role as a nurse leader.
  • Explain how the incorporation of a global perspective or lens might impact your local practice and role as a nurse leader.

Microsoft Case Study

Case studies are an essential learning strategy in business classes as they provide an opportunity for you to critically analyze events that have taken place in real-life businesses. This develops your critical thinking and research skills as you research the competition and industry in which your business resides in order to formulate a recommendation for the challenges faced by the company.

For this unit, review the “Marketing Excellence: Microsoft” case study on pp. 94–95 of your textbook. This assignment will be comprised of two parts; one part will ask you to respond to questions, and the other will require you to complete a case analysis.

Evaluate this case and respond to each of the following questions using both theory and practical managerial thinking.

Evaluate Microsoft’s product and marketing evolution over the years. What has the company done well, and where did it falter?

Evaluate Microsoft’s recent expansion into areas such as search engines and smartphones. Do you think these are good areas of growth for Microsoft? Why, or why not?

Review the potential ethical implications of Microsoft’s situation. How might they revise their strategies to align with good ethical practices?

Your Part 1 response must be at least two pages in length. Follow APA Style when creating citations and references for this assignment. Note that you will submit Part 1 and Part 2 in one document.

Part 2

Complete a case analysis of Microsoft. This requires that you conduct research on Microsoft beyond the case study material in the textbook. In the case analysis, you will look at the situational analysis, problem, and alternatives, and you will provide a recommendation. Refer to the instructions below as you construct your analysis.

Situational Analysis

Discuss the external environment through the compilation of a PEST (political, economic, sociocultural, and technology) analysis.

Discuss the internal and external environment through the compilation of a SWOT (strengths, weaknesses, opportunities, and threats) analysis.

Problem

Identify at least one organizational problem that Microsoft is currently having or one that you project it will have in the future. Base this on your research and critical thinking.

Alternatives

Compile three or four potential marketing-related solutions to the problem above. Remember that these are potential alternatives; you will not select all of the alternatives to solve the problem.

Recommendation (Marketing Strategy)

Select one or two of the alternatives above to solve the problem that you identified in this case analysis.

Discuss your rationale for choosing these and not the others. Include supporting research that will increase the depth of your analysis.

In order to successfully complete Part 2 of this case study, you need to review the video and task learning guides (TLGs) below. The following resources will provide you with the skills to research industries/competitors.

Part 2 must be at least four pages in length. Follow APA Style when creating citations and references for this assignment. Support Part 2 with at least three sources outside of the textbook. As aforementioned, keep in mind that Part 1 and Part 2 will be submitted in one document.

First draft: persuasive international communication memo

/in /by

and using the guidelines on How to Write Better Memos*, prepare a memo for the following scenario:

You work at Miami-based Wi-Fi Wonder Windshields, a company that produces windshield glass that projects 3D navigation maps on the windshield of cars. Business is going well and expansion internationally is occurring. In a meeting, your boss worries that the company is not prepared culturally to engage international clients outside of the close, regional area to South Florida.

You inform her that you have just read an interesting article about international communication (

) and would be happy to write a memo to all employees about conducting international relations with these specific countries. She agrees and tasks you with informing the company about the content and main ideas of Olofsson’s article and how these ideas can be useful for the mission of the company. Your goal is to give them specifics, not to tell them to read the article for themselves (Who would do that in a business setting?) You could invite them to go read it, but again, YOU giving the specifics from Olofsson.

Your primary audience is the sales staff who will be traveling to sales meetings in China, Germany, Italy, Spain and Mexico; however, your customer service department, shop managers, and of course your boss, will have some interaction with these clients moving forward, so keep secondary audiences in mind.

Write the memo for the internal audience of your company. Before you write, reflect on the purpose and audience(s) of your document, and think about tone (see Chapter 2). When discussing Olofsson’s ideas, you must cite her work in MLA format. 

PLEASE NOTE: YOU WILL RECEIVE 100% COMPLETION CREDIT FOR THIS DRAFT FOR SIMPLY COMPLETING THE ASSIGNMENT TO THE BASIC SPECIFICATIONS. YOUR FINAL SUBMISSION GRADE AFTER REVISIONS WILL RECEIVE A SEPARATE GRADE BASED ON THE EFFECTIVENESS OF YOUR COMMUNICATION.

*Helpful Hint: Here are some

 I’ve learned over the years. Not all of this information is directly useful for this project, but I want you to see how memos are used in professional communication.
