INSTRUCTIONS
You have just been hired as a healthcare administrator for a healthcare facility working to improve its quality standing. As you settle into your new role, one of the first tasks you are charged with is to lead the quality assurance and continuous improvement effort aimed at addressing fall-related incidents in your facility (you can review the Week 1 assignment for guidance). At this juncture, the quality improvement team is working on identifying meaningful measures for data collection and monitoring over time. As the quality team prepares to meet and deliberate on the choice of these meaningful performance measures, you decide to write a memo to the quality team with recommendations for factors they need to consider when choosing and prioritizing these measures.
Write a memo detailing your point and rationale. At the minimum, ensure your memo addresses/considers the following:
⦁ Your organization’s strategic plan.
⦁ The need for a holistic set of measures that includes measures from the structures, processes, and outcomes.
⦁ Stakeholders’ interest.
⦁ Compliance and accreditation.
Management Propaganda Communication on Online Platform Essay
Description
Persuasion
Review the basic concepts of persuasion discussed in Cialdini (2001) and McLean (2012). Then take a close look at the first few slides of Jernigan (2013) and make sure you are clear on the distinction between argument, persuasion, and propaganda.
Once you have finished reviewing the background materials, think about communication that you receive in your daily life that is intended to sway your attitudes, opinions, or behavior. This could be communication from your employer, YouTube videos, TV advertisements, spam email, and a host of other communication that you are exposed to in your daily life. After reviewing some communication examples, write a paper addressing the following questions:
⦁ Describe a communication example that you have seen that is best described as propaganda. In addition to describing the communication, explain why you think this was propaganda rather than argumentation or persuasion. Use the distinctions spelled out by Jernigan (2013) in your answer.
⦁ Now find a communication example that you think is a good example of argumentation. Describe the example and explain why you think it fits the definition of argumentation described by Jernigan (2013).
⦁ Last, but definitely not least, find an example of persuasion that you think best fits the definition of Jernigan (2013) as well as exemplifies the concepts of persuasion discussed in Cialdini (2001) or McLean (2012). Explain why you think this communication best fits the definition of persuasion rather than propaganda or argumentation.
