United States health care leaders and managers continue to face challenges in creating diverse workforce and more culturally competent organizations. Patient safety and outcomes are paramount, creating an awareness developing effective cultural and linguistic communications. To that end, the Office Minority Health at DHHS has developed National Standards on Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS) and published an executive summary of CLAS as an ongoing effort and framework for health care leaders in correcting inequities and open different patient groups.

This assignment challenges you to consider how CLAS and Pérez, M and Luquis, R., (2014), Cultural Competence in Health Education and Health Promotion (2 Ed) recommendations for working with diverse groups my help you in developing your Cultural Competence Development Plan.

For this assignment, write a paper in APA format with introduction, conclusion and references which you answers the following:

Discuss the three groupings of CLAS. How might these standards be useful in developing increased cultural competence?

As a consultant making recommendations to a health care organization, select three out of the 14 CLAS standards and describe how they may be helpful in making recommendations to assess, develop, or implement changes to increase cultural competence over time.

Read the “Recommendations for Working with Diverse Groups” from the Pérez and Luquis text (pp. 73–77). Consider how the authors say that health education must continue to develop in four areas: “awareness, knowledge, experience, and skills.” Select five recommendations and explain the following for each:

oThe importance of the recommendation.

oHow you might assess the current state in relation to that standard.

oHow you might formulate a plan.

oHow you would go about implementing the plan.

oHow you would evaluate the efforts.

Choose two (2) other public corporations in an industry with which you are familiar – one (1) that has acquired another company and operates internationally and or one (1) that does not have a history of mergers and acquisitions and operates solely within the U.S. Research each company on its own website, the public filings on the Securities and Exchange Commission EDGAR database (http://www.sec.gov/edgar.shtml), in the University’s online databases, and any other sources you can find. The annual report will often provide insights that can help address some of these questions.

Write a six to eight (6-8) page paper in which you:

1. For the corporation that has acquired another company, merged with another company, or been acquired by another company, evaluate the strategy that led to the merger or acquisition to determine whether or not this merger or acquisition was a wise choice. Or, for the corporation that has not been involved in any mergers or acquisitions, identify one (1) company that would be a profitable candidate for the corporation to acquire or merge with and explain why this company would be a profitable target. Justify your opinion.
2. Analyze the five (5) forces of competition to determine how they impact the company.
3. For the corporation that operates internationally, briefly evaluate its international business-level strategy and international corporate-level strategy and make recommendations for improvement.
4. For the corporation that does not operate internationally, propose one business-level strategy and one corporate-level strategy that you would suggest the corporation consider. Justify your proposals.
5. Select two (2) corporate governance mechanisms used by this corporation and evaluate how effective they are at controlling managerial actions.
6. Evaluate the effectiveness of leadership within this corporation and make at least one (1) recommendation for improvement.
7. Assess efforts by this corporation to be a responsible (ethical) corporate citizen and determine the impact these efforts (or lack thereof) have on the company’s bottom line. Provide specific examples to support your response.
8. Use at least three (3) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not quality as academic resources.

Assignment Details

Assignment Description

One of the risks you anticipated for the project was the late delivery of the prototype from the vendor. You adjusted your project schedule to minimize the impact of the risk, built in a penalty for late delivery, and created action plans in case the vendor delivered late. You also identified a risk with the vendor that they have very little technical depth; if the key engineer is not available to your project, the risk of a delay is even greater. You determined how you would monitor the vendor’s performance and ensure a timely delivery. You took a very risk-averse, protective approach to the relationship, but now, as the project is progressing, you are wondering if there is something you could do with the vendor to actually benefit the project instead of just protecting it.

Assignment Guidelines:

Create a 1-page addendum to your risk management plan that describes how you will modify the plans or create new plans relative to that vendor to create an opportunity that will result in lower costs, earlier delivery, higher quality, or other positive impacts.

Also, answer the following questions:

• What can you change in your plans to create an opportunity?
• What would that opportunity be?
• What is the probability that this opportunity could occur? What is the impact?
• What are the risks (adverse effect) that are introduced by this change in plans?
• How will you communicate this change to the vendor?

Your submitted assignment (200 points) must include the following:

• A 1-page addendum
• A 2 to 3 page document answering the questions above
• Submit both files as 1 zipped document to the drop box

Please submit your assignment.
