Human resource (HR) managers are largely responsible for building and managing the systems that recruit, train, provide protection from legal implications, and retain employees. By encouraging corporate leadership to provide employee training and promotions that lead to increased compensation, HR managers add value to an organization.

Imagine you are an HRM with a large company. Watch the following video:

• The Human Resources Hero

Once you have watched the video, write a minimum 3-page analysis that answers the following questions and supports your intended request for a raise:

• What are the three critical functions of human resource managers and how do these functions support an organization?
• The video suggests that the cost of HR includes hiring, productivity, and retention. Define each of these costs, and provide an example.
• Describe the steps that you can take to help your CEO understand the revenue equivalency of HR costs within your organization.
• Having a written plan is essential when creating a strategic plan. Identify the five components of a strategic plan, and define the importance of each.
• Define the difference between long-term goals and short-term goals, and provide an example of each.
• Give a recent example of “when and then” from your work experience. Describe the situation and why you believe it fits the “when and then” criteria.
• Define working above the line and below the line in an organization. In your opinion, where should an HR manager be and why?
• Explain the difference between 50/50 and 40/40 emotional energy, and provide an example of each.
• Moving yourself or an employee to 40% positive energy requires leaders to provide coaxing, encouragement, and inspiration. Describe a strategy for assisting an employee or coworker to move from a 20% energy to a 40% energy. Be specific with your response.
• As an HRM, you have decided to ask for a raise. Provide three bullet points that you plan to share with your manager to support your request.

Submitting your assignment in APA format means, at a minimum, you will need the following:

• Title page: Remember the running head. The title should be in all capitals.
• Length: 3 pages minimum

Health Behavior Theory Assessment

The director of the health center where you work requests that you prepare an engaging presentation for new health educators that provides an overview of the most commonly used health behavior theories and models in professional practice. The purpose of the presentation is to help prepare health educators so they can create health messages and strategies to promote behavior change in the community.

The PPT Presentation must include the following theories and models in this order:

1. Intrapersonal Theories:
   • Health Belief Model
   • Theory of Planned Behavior
   • Transtheoretical Model
2. Interpersonal Theories:
   • Social Cognitive Theory
3. Community Theories:
   • Diffusion of Innovation
   • Social Marketing or Social Ecological Model

PART 1: PRESENTATION

To complete the PowerPoint presentation, you will create 15 slides (which include the title and reference slides) and then record yourself narrating the content of the slides (audio only). The presentation should contain talking points in the “Speaker Notes” section of the PPT, which will be the narration script for the slides. Reading from the script (speaker notes) will help you stay on track and make your recorded presentation more professional. It also complies with the Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) guidelines for recorded presentations. Note: A live audience is not required for the presentation.

Imagine yourself a judge, prosecutor, defense attorney, or juror so that you can determine in an effective, five-paragraph essay whether you think the society or the protagonist depicted in the novel The Coldest Winter Ever should be held responsible for the misdeeds the protagonist carries out after her father is arrested.

A protagonist is the main character of a novel, so the person you need to focus on is the character Winter Santiaga. This is an open-book exam, so you should back up what you say with examples or illustrations from the novel.

Your essay should have a clear thesis and body paragraphs that have adequate supporting details, and your essay should have a conclusion that drives your overall point home. Your essay also should be composed on a Microsoft Word document that will need to be uploaded to Canvas by the deadlines given here.

Instructions

Before submitting your Assessment, carefully review the rubric. This is the same rubric the assessor will use to evaluate your submission and it provides detailed criteria describing how to achieve or master the Competency. Many students find that understanding the requirements of the Assessment and the rubric criteria help them direct their focus and use their time most productively

Health Education/Promotion Resource Guide

The director of the public health center where you work would like your team at the center to collaborate with other health educators to create a series of resource guides that provide theory- and evidence-based practices to address specific health behaviors other than physical activity, eating habits, tobacco use, and alcohol abuse. The center already has an abundance of resources to address these “top four” health behaviors, and patients could really benefit from additional resources.

To start the process, the director created a list of priority health behaviors that emerged from the community’s most recent health assessment. As the senior health educator, you get to choose from the list first. Choose one of the topics from the list below and then follow the instructions for creating the resource guide.

1. Healthy sleep habits
2. Stress management
3. Bullying (both in person and cyber-bullying)
4. Screen time (any screen use, e.g., phones, computers, television, video games)
5. Health screenings (focus on screenings for a specific population rather than a specific screening)
6. Safe sexual practices
7. Opioid abuse

After you choose a behavior from the list, consider one of the major health education/promotion settings (i.e., school, healthcare, worksite, or community) where the behavior might be an issue. Some behaviors may be an issue in multiple settings (e.g., healthy sleep). Other behaviors are a typically an issue in one setting (e.g., bullying). For the purpose of this Performance Task assessment, choose only one setting (and a specific target population, if needed). In reality, however, you would include best practices for different settings. If you would like to select a non-traditional/alternative setting (e.g., universities, home, or prisons), consult with your instructor first to get approval.

You are encouraged to be creative with the layout of your document, but you should follow these formatting guidelines:

1. Use Times New Roman, Arial, or Calibri typeface.
2. Do not use a font size less than 12. Preferably, the narrative should be 12 (no larger than 13), major headings should be 12 or 13 (no larger than 14), and sub-headings one font size smaller than major headings.
3. The right margin should be 1 inch, the left margin should be 1.5 inches, and the top and bottom should be 1 inch or 1.5 inches.
4. Number the pages, starting after Table of Contents (bottom of page, either center or lower right-hand side).
5. The use of color is okay but use it wisely. (e.g., Make sure that any colored text is readable.)
6. The use of images is okay, but make sure they serve a purpose such as showing diversity in a population or to illustrate a concept. If you use images, you must select images from open sources. You cannot use an image from the Internet/webpage without permission, even if you cite and reference it. To learn more about copyrighted images and other information, click on https://academicguides.waldenu.edu/copyrightbasics.
7. The only APA guidelines you must follow are for in-text citations and references. You do not need to format the document in APA. Instead, follow the guidelines 1–6 above

Below are the required components and sections of the guide. Please click each panel and read the instructions carefully to avoid missing an important part of the guide.

Title Page:

Table of Contents

• TIP: Use a table to create the Table of Contents and then hide the border lines in the table. This will help make sure the contents of the table are aligned.

Section I: Introduction and Background (Use this as a major heading; sub-headings are optional)

1. Introduction—–write one (1) paragraph that introduces the guide to the reader. The introduction informs the reader about the purpose of the guide and what will be covered. Your introduction should be interesting and engaging.

2. Background—write one (1) or two (2) paragraphs that contain(s) information about the target population and the health behavior, including current statistics, the multiple factors affecting it, and its impact on individual, family, and/or community health. This would be a good place to use your knowledge about the different levels of influence and health behavior. Include a description of the setting and why you chose it to address the specific health behavior and target population. Be sure to cite all health information and statistics in text and then provide the reference on the reference page.

Section II: Theory- and Evidence-Based Strategies, Programs, and Initiatives (Use this as a major heading; sub-headings are optional)

1. Write one (1) or two (2) paragraphs that explain(s) the terms “theory-based” and “evidence-based.” Explain how they are related but different terms. Include the role of theory in evidence-based practice. In addition, include a statement or two about the importance of using evidence-based practices that are grounded in theory to address behavior change.

2. Write one (1) paragraph that explains the criteria or process that you used to choose the evidence- and theory-based strategies, programs, and/or initiatives included in the guide.
3. List and fully describe three (3) strategies, programs, and/or initiatives (two to three paragraphs for each strategy/program/initiative). Each description should include:The name of the strategy, program, and/or initiative.
The titles/names of two scholarly sources (one must be a research article) that support the efficacy of the strategy/program/initiative. Include a brief overview of the source/study, the theoretical framework (i.e., a theory, model, and/or its constructs) that the strategy/program/initiative is based on, and evidence of the strategy/program/initiative’s effectiveness.
4. Create a table of the chosen strategies/programs/initiatives that can be used as a quick guide for reviewing each strategy/program/initiative. You can label the table “Evidence-and Theory-Based Practices At-A-Glance” or another name that is appropriate. At a minimum, the table should include important information such as: 1) the name of the program, 2) the specific focus/purpose of the program, 3) the targeted population, 4) the setting(s), and 5) information about program effectiveness

Section III: Resources

List and describe at least 3 resources that provide credible and current information about the focus (topic) of the guide. These are resources that a health educator could use to keep abreast of the current research and best practices related to the health behavior. Please provide the name and a link to the source if it is on the Internet.
