Poetry For your second essay, choose one of the “Suggestions for Writing” listed on pages 856, 900-901, or 907. OR, choose one of the poems in the introductory poetry chapter (670-697) and write an in-depth analysis of that poem similar to the sample essay on pages 694-697. Your essay should have a clear thesis, organized paragraphs with topic sentences, a logical progression of ideas, and transitions leading from one idea to the next. Your ideas must be supported by evidence from the text; therefore, you should include quotes, summaries, and/or paraphrases from the poem or poems you choose to discuss. Use MLA documentation to cite the poem or poems (in-text citations and a works cited page). It is important to note that for poetry you cite line numbers instead of page numbers. See pages 95-96 and 226-229 of the MLA Handbook for help citing poetry. Give your essay an original and intriguing title. This essay should be 3-5 pages long. A draft will be peer reviewed next week, but you must begin planning this week.
Write a one-page planning memo, describing your plans for writing this essay. Tell me which topic you have chosen and why you chose it. What made you interested in this topic? You should include a tentative thesis statement and a rough outline of your main ideas. Also include the evidence from the poem(s) you plan to use to support your ideas.
Upload your planning memo as a Word document using the link below. This is due before midnight on Thursday.

The task is to write a report on the branding strategy of an organisation of your choice.

Focus of Report

Firstly choose the organisation and its brand. You may decide to look at simply the corporate brand or a product/service line from it. This will depend on the organisation you choose. You might wish to choose an organisation you have access to and documents within it, or simply one that you have a good knowledge of or are interested in.

The focus is on the brand. Use various models/ and guideline lists from Kapferer and others to apply to the brand you choose.

Some possible Format ?headings?

Although it is best not to be too prescriptive in giving a ?pro forma? that hinders your creativity, it is crucial that you include some headings rather than an essay type continuous piece of writing. The following are some you might like to consider although you could also combine some of these, and please use wording that feels most natural for yourself (i.e not just a copy of my wording).

Introduction-simply and briefly about the organisation represented

Brand Elements-what is the assessment of the brand at present and historically, from possibly reports/case studies and your own analysis using techniques from Kapferer and others

Brand Strategy-by identifying the elements analyse their current/recent brand strategy

Growing/sustaining the brand- what is the outlook for the brand

Conclusion-final summary of your analysis

Recommendations- for change/continuation of the brand

Bibliography-remember to include referencing in a bibliography and in the text of your report.

Some odd points ;

? Do not use ?I? ?Me? ?Self? ?My?- this is a formal report
? Remember the word count is 2500, + or – 10%

I think the health belief model is the best theory, what do you think? or do you think one of the other is better for this assignment?

Theories of Health Promotion
Theories of health promotion help to predict outcomes from therapeutic interventions. Some theories focus on the individual or intrapersonal level while others look at the interpersonal or community level. The ecological perspective is a more contemporary approach to designing health promotion interventions and includes approaches that focus on the individual and the environment in which they live. The environment includes individuals, genetic and individual risk factors, living conditions, neighborhoods, institutions, and social and economic policies.
After an evaluation of the community has been performed and the health promotion area identified, theories of health promotion can guide a group into deciding their course of action.
Theories Focusing on Individuals
Health Belief Model: This model focuses on individual health promotion and helps us predict an individual’s health behaviors based on his or her belief patterns. It was developed in the 1950s and was one of the first theories to be used in understanding an individual’s response to both health promotion and illness treatment. This model is based on the premise that an individual’s readiness to act is dependent upon his or her perceptions such as susceptibility, severity of consequences, potential benefits, and the cost of taking action. Subsequent interventions can then be planned on the basis of the individual’s responses to these concepts. One of the main limitations of this model is that it does not take into consideration other aspects of the individual, such as the environment in which they live.
Transtheoretical Stages of Change Model: This theory helps us to see individual behavior changes as a result of a process rather than a series of isolated events. The individual goes through five stages—precontemplation, contemplation, preparation, action and maintenance—which are different areas on which the intervention can focus. It is important to remember that people may cycle back and forth through these stages as it mirrors typical non-linear progression.
This model helps us understand change from a different perspective—something akin to thinking outside the box. Often, our own perceptions may cloud our perspective of change in others. This theory helps us to understand the natural history of change in behaviors.
The Ontario Ministry of Health has used this theory in a cigarette smoking cessation program. The program reveals how in each stage of this model, the individual has to grapple with a different set of issues and tasks related to the person’s smoking behavior.1
Social Cognitive Theory: This interpersonal level theory contends that a person’s behavior is based on three factors: human behavior, environment, and personal factors. The probability that a person’s behavior will change is dependent upon the person’s level of self-efficacy, goals, and outcomes expectations. Potential strategies for change include the use of role models, rewards and incentives, and environmental adjustments.
Theories Focusing on Communities
Community level theories seek to explain how social systems function and change and to discover the best approaches to stimulate involvement of the community members.
Community Organization Model: In this model, members of a community identify areas of health promotion that require intervention. These community groups can better organize resources, mobilize individual efforts, and develop strategies for successful implementation. This approach is similar to the ecologic approach in which a problem is examined from a more comprehensive perspective.
Various strategies such as developing social networks, developing leadership skills, and improving communication flow among the community groups can be used to execute this model.

Personal Reaction to a Global Issue
Introduction
We are bombarded with information about global issues each day. We learn about these issues in many ways, including newspapers, television news, online blogs, and more recently, tweets. Documentaries also act as a way for individuals to present one or more sides of an issue through investigation, interviews, and footage of the places and individuals involved. In this unit, you will write about your personal reaction to a global issue presented in one of the documentaries listed below.

While watching the documentaries, it is important to pay attention not only to the information presented in the video, but also to the information that was left out, ignored, or written off as unimportant. Everyone holds personal biases about issues, and it is important to recognize that directors may not always offer a balanced view of the issue they are presenting. In other words, when watching documentaries it is important to critically analyze what you are watching.

When you critically analyze something, it is useful to pay attention to the following:
1. Context
? How is the information being presented?
? Are both sides of the issue represented?
? Is personal opinion or bias evident?
2. Sources
? Is the information provided recent?
? Are sources relevant?
? Are the sources from different viewpoints, or only one point of view?
3. Publisher
? What are the interests of the publisher?
? Do they have anything to gain/lose from the content provided?
4. Cause and Effect Relationships
? Are cause and effect relationships true, or exaggerated?
Example: John walked down the street at 10pm. At 10:15pm my house was robbed. John robbed my house.
This is not an effective cause and effect relationship because it is based on assumption, not fact.
5. Anecdotes
? Anecdotes are personal stories, not fact. Just because one person experienced something, doesn’t mean it is true for everyone.
6. Missing Information
? Is there information missing?
? Have all sides of the issue been examined?
7. Statistics
? Do statistics represent a variety of people from different backgrounds?
Example: If you create a survey asking people their opinions on poverty, but only ask people who make $250,000 a year from one neighbourhood, the responses will be different than if you ask people from various economic classes and neighbourhoods.
? Have an appropriate number of people been questioned?
Example: If you only ask 10 people the survey question, the results will not be as accurate as if you ask 1000 people.

Assignment
For this assignment you will submit a 500 word written response summarizing and critically analyzing a documentary of your choice. The following documentaries are only suggestions. If you find a documentary on another global issue that is of more interest to you, you may write your assignment based on it, pending your instructor’s approval. This assignment will make up part of your personal global awareness portfolio. Therefore, it is important that you choose an issue that is of interest, or perhaps has personally affected you, your family, or a friend. If you are an international student, you may wish to choose an issue that is affecting your country. Some alternative suggestions are documentaries relating to: natural resources (water, oil, renewable energy), political instability, global health epidemics, global warming, corruption, electoral practices, land ownership, military issues, etc.

Make sure your response:
? Briefly summarizes the main ideas and arguments presented in your chosen documentary
? Critically analyzes the video (i.e. what was left out, ignored, what biases you noticed, etc.)
o Use the critical analysis suggestions in the introduction to assist you.
? Shares your own personal reaction to the global issue presented in the documentary

It is strongly recommended that you leave yourself enough time to locate the documentary required for this assignment. It is also strongly recommended that you use additional internet research to familiarize yourself with the global issue you have selected.

Organizational Leadership Analysis (20 points). The use of your own organization for this assignment is recommended (You can change the name). You may also use another organization in which you have sufficient knowledge. This assignment will not be shared with anyone and will remain confidential.

The idea for this assignment is to apply, compare and contract what you have learned thus far, with your current organization. Again, this assignment will not be shared with anyone and will remain confidential.

The purpose of this assignment is twofold: (1) to judge your organization with respect to its leadership style(s), and (2) to apply what you have learned about leadership and decision making (intuition and rational) to create improvements.
The first part of this assignment requires you to apply the theories presented in this course, the resources from the literature review and additional sources to analyze your organization?s effectiveness in relationship to its leadership. Unfortunately, some leaders ?lose their way? to the extent that their actions do not remotely connect with their leadership style. Others, craft their leadership styles around ?actions? and ?things? they value, not the organizational values themselves. Questions you need to ask are: ?How does the performance of my leaders align with the organization and fulfill its leadership style?? The second part of this assignment is to propose ways to better connect or improve the relationship between the leadership and performance of your organization. Remember that you need to provide some background information about your organization.
? Provide a profile of your organization that includes its vision, mission, goals and structure.
? Describe the organizational model and leadership styles, and compare them to those presented in this course.
? Analyze the actions of your leaders and compare them to the intent of the organization?s vision. Use your knowledge of leadership, and organizational theory to form conclusion.
? Make judgments about the vision and performance of your organization and provide solutions for improvement, if required. (This may require crafting of a new vision.)

Please remember that this is a scholarly paper, and not an opportunity to vent. Your opinion is not as important as the factual information you discover and support with research. This assignment is a research paper 8-10 pages long and written in current APA style. Use a minimum of 10 references in addition to the course texts. You may wish to search the Internet, review professional literature, and/or use the NSU online library.
