Assignment 2: LASA 2—Conflict Management Report

Assignment 2: LASA 2—Conflict Management Report

The workplace can be an especially stressful environment. Personal conflicts between coworkers, fear of layoffs, and heavy workloads can be causes of negative stress. This stress can be carried to our homes and after-work activities, impacting personal health. Allowing these stressors to build and intensify will only further impair the work environment. For this assignment, you are required to review a scenario regarding a woman (Kate) who has experienced negative stress stemming from her work environment. Then, you will compare your own conflict management skills and experiences against Kate’s experiences. Follow the directions below to write an 8–10-page report on conflict management.

Review the following scenario:

Kate has been employed by a well-known manufacturing company for 12 years. She is the only female on her line and the fastest worker. She has been promoted several times through mergers and acquisitions, but has always been looked over for a senior management position. Kate believes she is qualified for advancement but thinks her manager has a problem with her personally. To top it off, Kate did not receive a semiannual or annual review, which would have resulted in a raise. Her coworkers (all males) have urged her to go to management and report what she believes to be discriminatory behavior from her immediate manager.

Now, complete the following tasks:

Discuss a situation you have been in where you felt you were passed over for a promotion, made to feel indifferent, or were discriminated against. Compare and contrast your story with Kate’s.
Compare the possible ethical breaches of Kate’s manager against your own manager’s behavior. Utilize scholarly research on leadership theory as justification.
Compare the possible legal breaches of Kate’s manager against your own manager’s behavior. Utilize scholarly research on leadership theory as justification.
Recommend an approach Kate could have used to manage the negative risk both personally and professionally.
Evaluate the advice Kate received from her coworkers.
Referring to the conflict resolution strategies taught in this course, determine which one is best suited to resolve Kate’s conflict. Justify your position.
In the chart below, evaluate your conflict resolution skills from the past five years. Rate yourself on a scale from 1–5, where 1 represents low performing and 5 represents high performing.

Are there any things happening in society and its cultures that make this text a draw for that society & culture?

This assignment is a 1600 word critical analysis of a suitable contemporary (last 3 months) media text. Your analysis should discuss the following:

1. The €˜cultural politics of representation €™ in the text.

2. The socio-cultural context of the media text.

The media text chosen needs to be available online so that your tutor has access to it. It can be article in a newspaper or magazine, a picture in a magazine or newspaper, a music video, television programme or an audio-visual advertisement. It should be a suitable media text that allows you to explore and explain the €˜cultural politics of representation €™ as discussed in readings and lectures covered in Term 1.

Guidance:

Be imaginative in your choice of media text. Your discussion of the media text should move beyond being purely descriptive of the text itself; your tutor can see it for herself. You should think about and apply ideas from readings about society, culture and communication and analyse the representation offered by the media of ideas about gender, sexuality, cultural power or social relations etc.

You should consider the purpose of this media text, what it says about the media and how the media represents positively or negatively its subject. You should consider why has this media texts been produced and why now?

Are there any things happening in society and its cultures that make this text a draw for that society & culture?

Note: I am situated in United Kingdom, in my first (Foundation) year of University.

Whichever media text you choose to analyze (for example Newspaper article, would hopefully be British for example: The Guardian, The Times, The Independent). Music videos etc. can be of any origin, English speaking only please.
