One of the most important parts of identifying dysfunction in the work environment is recognizing and acknowledging if you
One of the most important parts of identifying dysfunction in the work environment is recognizing and acknowledging if you as the leadership are part of the problem. Often times that dysfunction stems from reason other than just employee issues. It can arise for a myriad of reasons such as improper treatment of employees, values not aligned with the organization, and even mishandled employee issues not handled at the appropriate level of leadership. Is there a high turnover rate and are employees complacent or satisfied with their current positions and contributions. The problems that are presented with a dysfunctional work environment can often be seen by the level of productivity dropping, complacency, complaints, and mistrust. This is often identified by the amount of HR complaints and the biggest indicator employee production. In order to change these issues, companies have to first acknowledge the problem and accept that it needs to be fixed in order to get back on track. Secondly, management needs to identify what the employees needs are in order to get the company back on track. This is done by accepting employee input and ensuring inclusion from every department. Management along with employees have to accept that they did not get to this point alone and it will take everyone to get back on track. Third, clearly state the values of the company and how the plan that will be put in place will address this issues following those values (Culture by design, 2021).
Measurement Helps Company’s achieve their strategic goals by allowing them to monitor what it tangible and non-tangible. It helps to identify what is important to a company, costumer, and to the brand. Measurement will also help to ensure that the company is investing in the right domain and not wasting resources in other areas. “Measurement is at the heart of everything we do; without measurement, there is no visibility, and without visibility, there is no progress” (Moore, 2020). Everything should be measured as it will provide a starting point and ending point from employee relations, customer satisfaction, to resource development. If it is not measured then how does a company know what is successful and what is not.

Business Assignment Help My paper is on Walt Disney. No outside sources unless from a book about him. Why did you choose your person? 2. YOU SHOULD ask if your person understood the differences between MANAGEMENT AND LEADERSHIP? Remember to give several examples from the book to support your claim they did understand the differences or did not always? 3. Below, find a suggestion of a model to determine if your person was a great or so-so leader. To help us understand the difference(s) you could use some patterns of successful leadership models from our textbook. ASK BY USING THE FIVE PRACTICES OF EXEMPLARY LEADERSHIP IF YOUR CHOICES WAS A GOOD OR EVEN GREAT LEADER. DID THEY: *MODEL THE WAY: Did you choice not practice what they “preached” or did they get their hands “dirty” working with their people? A leader works twice as hard as an employee but not in a bullying manner, but in a challenging but inspiring manner. *INSPIRE A SHARED VISION: Did your choice motivate through fear or trust? Think McGregor’s Theory of X or Y. *CHALLENGE THE PROCESS: This is an expansion of “thinking out the box” in that the leader exhibits a blend of creativity and practicality. *ENABLE OTHERS TO ACT: Does your choice allow others to take the initiative or do they micro manage? *ENCOURAGE THE HEART: Does your leader constructively criticize? Do they listen not only with their ears but also with their intuition? Are they wise, or emotionally intelligent? 4. WHAT KIND OF A MORAL LEADER WAS YOUR CHOICE?, – YOU COULD USE THE BLACKBOARD LIST OF BAD TRAITS, SUCH AS ARROGANCE, MELODRAMA, ETC. FOR EXAMPLE, DID YOUR LEADER CHANGE THEIR BAD LEADERSHIP HABITS? DID THEY, LIKE COVEY, AS HE DID WITH HIS OWN EXAMPLES, CHANGE THEIR TOXIC OR WEAK BEHAVIOR . COVEY AND HIS WIFE “RELEARNED’ HOW TO HELP THEIR SON WHEN HE WAS STRUGGLING WITH LIFE AND SCHOOL – YOU COULD USE KOHLBERG’S MODEL OF MORAL MATURITY. REMEMBER TO CITE EXAMPLES FROM THE BOOK 5. Address the role of creativity, as we discussed in the lecture on 10/18. -How imaginative is or was your biography choice? -What innovations, such as technological, social, or organizational, did they contribute to their industry or profession? 5. IN YOUR CONCLUSION, YOU SHOULD ADDRESS WHAT YOU WOULD EMULATE OR NOT FOLLOW, IN TERMS OF LEADERSHIP SKILLS, YOUR CHOICE. AGAIN, CITE CONCRETE EXAMPLES FOR THE WORK LIFE OF YOUR CHOICE, AND APPLY THEM TO YOUR OWN LIFE.
Financial Condition Analysis
Create a 4-6 page report that analyzes financial ratios for a
company, uses the data to tell the financial story of that company, and
concludes with a recommendation on whether the company would be a viable
partner based on its financial condition.
Introduction
It’s essential for senior management to know the financial condition
of an organization in order to make strategic decisions. In this
assessment, you will apply the financial management skills learned thus
far.
Tell the financial story based on financial statements.
Conduct a financial analysis and identify focus areas for enhancing shareholder value.
Interpret ratio computations that are meaningful and inform business decisions and strategies.
Make three recommendations that maximize shareholder value.
Scenario
Maria Gomez is founder and president of ABC Healthcare Corporation, a
company that owns hospitals, ambulatory surgical centers, urgent care
centers, and outpatient clinics. She has called on you to review various
financial documents and to make recommendations to maximize shareholder
value.
Your Role
You are one of Maria’s high-performing financial analyst managers at
ABC Healthcare Corporation and she trusts your work and leadership.
Requirements
Here is what your report should provide for Maria:
A summary of the financial strength of the company through your analysis of the price/earnings and price/book ratios.
The CFO for ABC Healthcare Corporation assessed the market value by reviewing its price/earnings ratios. The price/earnings ratio
determines the market value of a stock as compared to the company’s
earnings. The price/earnings ratios are listed in the chart below. To
calculate the price/earnings ratio, the CFO took the earnings per share
and divided that into the market value. As an example, this means that
in 2019 investors were willing to pay $12.10 for $1 of earnings.

To further assess market value, the CFO looked at book value per
share. The book value per share ratio is the per share value of a
company in terms of the equity available to stockholders. The book
values per share over the past three years are listed in the chart
below:
Price/Ratio Ratio

The price-to-book ratio (P/B ratio) compares a firm’s market
capitalization to its book value. It’s calculated by dividing the
company’s stock price per share by book value per share. Here, for
fiscal year 2019, the book value per share ratio was 0.42. This explains
that investors were willing to pay $0.42 for $1 of book value equity.
Price to book value is an important measure to see how much equity
shareholders are paying for the net assets value of the company. P/B
ratios under 1 are typically considered solid investments.
Based on your analysis, what is your general perception of the
company’s financial strength? Is it performing well given industry
standards? How does it compare to its closest rival, HCA Healthcare? What information do you need in order to conduct such an analysis?
Given your review, how can it maximize shareholder value? What are
focus areas for enhancing shareholder value for the long term? What
short-term steps might be necessary for longer-term gains?
In your analysis you may choose to look at competitive data. You may calculate ratios to gain a true comparison.
After conducting your analysis, provide at least three recommendations to Maria that maximize shareholder value.
