MGT 4472 Written Term Assignment
Application of Chapter 13 Models of
Conflict and Negotiation to a Case Situation

This assignment is a 10 to 12 page written assignment that requires students to watch the 1957 version of a move titled “12 Angry Men” and to apply Organizational Models of conflict negotiations, organizational conflict, and other issues to the people and situations found in the movie case. The assignment is completed by each student individually and all written text must be original. Students many not cut and paste or copy any text into the body of the assignment.
The Conflict and Negotiation assignment is a thoughtful application project rather than a research paper task. Students will first have to seek a clear understanding of the various models and then apply the concepts to situations and characters found in the movie.

BASIC FORMAT AND CONTENT:
Use double spacing, page numbering, one inch margins, and turn off the right justification.
Use 12 point Times New Roman font in Microsoft Word or an equivalent sized font.
Divide your paper into subsections with appropriate titles. Do not skip pages or half pages between subsections. There should not be any large blank spaces in a 10 to 12 page paper.
Begin with title page that also includes the author’s name and student number.
Is important for any document of this length to be well-organized and to be written from an outline. However, the outline should not be turned-in as part of the paper. A table of contents is not required for a 10 to 12 page paper. An abstract may be included, but it is not required nor is it recommended.
References are very important in a research paper. However, this assignment is an application paper and therefore, no references should be included.
Do not describe the plot of the movie, critique acting, or move away from the topic of conflict and negotiations. Also, do not write explanations of the model. In other words, avoid any kinds of filler material and focus on applying the information found in the movie case to the models and issues of conflict and negotiations found in Chapter 13 on the course textbook.
The paper must be completed in Microsoft Word software. Writing the paper using any other word processing software must be translated into MS Word prior to turning-in the assignment. Assignments in any other format turned-in at the last minute will be considered late and will receive a penalty.
Paper must be turned in twice by the due date. Turn-in the paper at the Assignment file on Blackboard and also send the paper as an email attachment to rblackwell48058@gmail.com .

Edit your paper for clarity of writing and for relevance of the ideas to the case assignment. There should be a depth of thought and application in the course concepts appropriate for a college level analysis. It is best to find a colleague who will edition your paper for readability since it is very difficult for authors to edit their own writing. It is recommended that students do not use fellow students in the same course as an editor, since there could be a temptation for editors to copy ideas or text and use it in their own papers.

MODELS AND CONCEPTS FROM CHAPTER 13:

Pondy’s Five Stage Model of Organizational Conflict
Trace how conflict among the jurors arises and is resolved in the movie.

Five Forms of Negotiation (Ways of Handling Conflict)
Each juror emphasizes one of the five forms of negotiation. Discuss each juror’s way of handling conflict. If a juror’s primary negotiation method changes, this can be described, as well. Include longer descriptions of the jurors playing larger roles in the negotiation and conflict process.

Promoting Compromise
Explain how some of the jurors promote compromise in the film. The discussion can explain how some jurors were successful and others were unsuccessful at promoting compromise.

Sources of Formal and Informal Power
All the jurors have equal power in the jury room. Explain any situations, personal characteristics, or ploys that individual jurors used in attempts to increase their power in the jury room.

Environmental Situations that Increase the Conflict
Chapter 13 does not cover this topic very thoroughly. However, are there any physical conditions and psychological concerns that increase conflict in the jury room?

Other models or concepts from Chapter 13
Thorough coverage of the concepts and models above should produce a completed assignment. However, any other issues related to conflict and negotiation may be included in the paper. Please make sure any other issues included are in addition to covering the models above.

The JURORS and the MOVIE SETTING:
The 1957 version of “12 Angry Men” has been successful used before as movie case for the investigations of negotiations and conflict resolution. The story was a stage play, and then presented live in 1954 and has been remade many other times. The 1957 version is the best version as a conflict and negotiation case, and is the only version that should be used for this assignment. There is a drawback to the move as the characters do not use their names. So, here are some “names” that can be used in the writing of the assignment. Writers have the choice of using the juror number or the juror description. Also, the approximate time that the juror first appears in the movie and some of the actors’ names are included:

Juror Number Description Appearance
1 Jury Forman 5:43
(Martin Balsam)
2 Man with high voice 5:57
3 Carries photo of son 5:57
(Lee J. Cobb)
4 Stock broker 8:10
(E.G. Marshall)
5 Raised in a “slum” 5:35
(Jack Klugman)
6 Working man 5:09
7 Man in hat (baseball fan) 4:10
(Jack Warden)
8 First votes not guilty 4:43
(Henry Fonda)
9 Older man (with 20×20 vision) 10:00
10 Man with cold (own garages) 5:35
(Ed Begley, Sr.)
11 Immigrant with mustache 9:00
12 Advertising man 6:50

MOVIE SETTING:
New York City in the 1950s is the setting of the movie “12 Angry Men.” During this time there was a wave of immigration from Puerto Rico to New York City that has been labelled, “The Migration.” Unfortunately, whenever a large ethnic or national group moves into an area over a short period of time, ethnic biases can show its ugly head. It is difficult to understand in the new millennium, but there was an ethnic bias against Puerto Ricans in NYC during the 1950s. The defendant in “12 Angry Men” is only shown briefly, but viewers in the 1950s probably realized that the young man was supposed to be a Puerto Rican immigrant to NYC. The issue of some people’s bias again Puerto Ricans in NYC is an important environmental concern in the movie. Please consider this situation in the assignment, but resist changing the topic of the paper from the assigned issues of negotiation and conflict management to one of racial or ethnic bigotry. In other words, the topic of the assignment may not be changed to racism or bigotry at the expense of covering the models, issues and topics of conflict and negotiation from Chapter 13.

This is a midterm paper which will discuss the movie “Desk Set”. “Beginning in the mid-1940s, C. Wright Mills was a professor of at Columbia University, where he initially did research at Columbia’s Bureau of Applied Social Research. He went on to write during the 1950s a number of well known, if controversial, books critical of American society, including, for example, The Power Elite (1959). He also wrote White Collar: The American Middle Class, https://archive.org/stream/whitecollarameri00mill#page/n0/mode/2up, which was published in 1951.
Your paper should analyze the movie Desk Set, focusing upon how the researchers and the computer are portrayed in the context of Mills’ study White Collar: The American Middle Class, in particular, Chapter 10 entitled “Work”. You may approach the subject in any manner you believe is appropriate. For example, you may wish to discuss how the movie reinforces or contradicts Mills’ portrayal of “work”, to what extent the interaction between the characters reflects what Mills titles “The Morale of the Cheerful Robots,” whether the work environment in the film, including its hierarchy, conforms to “The Conditions of Modern Work,” and whether we are intended to believe (or not) the movie’s resolution of the conflicts presented by the computer. While your paper must be limited to an analysis of Desk Set and should focus upon Chapter 10, you need not limit your paper to this particular chapter but may consider others, such as Chapter 7 (“Brains, Inc.”). You may also consider discussing other, then-contemporary critiques in addition to Mills’ White Collar if, for example, you wish to contrast his view with that of other contemporary writers.”

We live in a very complex and culturally diverse society. When we bring individuals together from diverse backgrounds in a work environment conflict can arise when expectations are not realized or met. Rather than hoping conflict will go away, this paper will explore and identify the reasons for conflict and how to successfully address them in a team environment.

Write a four- to five-page paper (excluding title and reference pages) assessing the components of conflict. The following need to be addressed within your paper:
Describe a conflict within an organization or team with which you are familiar.
Identify and describe the source(s) and level of the conflict and support with evidence.
Describe the steps taken to resolve the conflict or, if it is an ongoing conflict, propose steps to resolve the conflict.
Describe a minimum of three conflict outcomes that could reasonably occur as a result of the conflict resolution. Support your reasoning for each possible outcome.
