Title: “Exploring Inequality: A Sociological Analysis of Race, Gender, and Social Class”
Sociologists are always interested in inequality, why we have inequality, and who benefits and suffers from inequality. In this lesson, we discussed two bases of inequality in society- race and gender. Later, we will look at inequality based on social class. There are many other ways that inequality manifests in society. What is an example of another basis of inequality you see in society? What do you think are some of the causes and consequences of this inequality? How does your example compare to what we learned about racial and gender inequalities? It may be helpful to reference/cite the assigned material in your response demonstrating connections between your thoughts and the course resources

“Theories Used in Design and Implementation of Human Service Programs: A Case Study of a Community Organization”
HN531-1: Describe theories that human service organizations may have used in their design and implementation of a human service program.
People are generally familiar with the range of human service organizations that form their community’s “safety net”. Some organizations in the community network provide assistance to families and children, others may help people who are homeless or who have disabilities of some kind. People also have a general notion of how these organizations are organized, e.g., staffing, services, funding.
This first assignment asks you to use management theories reviewed in the readings as a “lens” with which to describe a human service organization in your community.
Select an HSO in your community you are familiar with either as an employed staff member or as a client of the organization or simply a member of the community. Conduct an online search of the organization and describe the organization in terms of the community need it seeks to address, the population served, the program services it offers.
Using the text and suggested readings, discuss the various theories the organization would use to design and implement program services. Since every program has multiple dimensions, your response should include theories for those multiple dimensions, e.g., the internal and external dimensions of an organization. For reference, use the competing values framework to outline your discussion.
Describe the leadership theories that might characterize the leadership of the HSO to provide services.
Resources:
Text: Chapter 4: “Applying Organizational Theories”
The Competing Values Framework: This framework developed by Robert Quinn defines the various dimensions and values that form an organization. Each dimension addresses competing organizational values: effectiveness vs. efficiency/flexibility vs. control. The pursuit of those values by management determines the type of managerial role one needs to assume, e.g., management vs. leadership, and the skills needed to be effective in those roles.
Key differences between management/leadership roles The Harvard Business Review
What is a “Theory of Change”?
Supplemental Readings: In addition to the assigned readings for this unit that concern theories used in program development, you may wish to further your learning by reading the following articles:
“A Comprehensive Resiliency Framework: Theoretical Model, Treatment, and Evaluation.”
Resiliency blends learning and ecological theories to provide a coherent framework to discuss adaptation in terms of risk, vulnerability, and capacities for growth and change. In addition to being a helpful tool to design programs, the concept of resiliency is relatively easy for people to understand and provides a familiar language to describe what the program does and how it does it.
Ecological Systems Perspective
The social-ecological perspective describes how environment factors interact to create the unique circumstances that shape who we are and what we do. This ecological systems perspective forms the basis of the resiliency framework.
Vulnerability Index (Vulnerability Service Decision Assistance Tool – VI-SPDAT)
The Vulnerability Index – The Service Prioritization Decision Tool (VI-SPDAT) is a triage tool used to determine “client need” through a measurement of risk and vulnerability factors so that appropriate levels of support can be provided. The index is also used to measure client need at the point of an initial assessment and the point of termination of services.

Navigating Dialectical Tensions in Relationships: Understanding, Strategies, and Reflection.
In this assignment, you will explore the concept of dialectical tensions in relationships and how to navigate them. You will also analyze the strategies that individuals can use to manage these tensions and reflect on how you might apply these strategies in your own relationships.
You will complete this assignment in four (4) parts:
Define what dialectical tensions are and provide examples of how they might manifest in different types of relationships (e.g., romantic, friendship, family, professional).
Explain the strategies for managing dialectical tensions. Describe at least three (3) strategies that individuals can use to manage dialectical tensions in relationships, such as integration, segmentation, and prioritization. For each strategy, provide an example of how it might be used in a specific relationship.
Reflect on your own experiences with dialectical tensions in relationships. Describe a specific relationship in which you experienced dialectical tensions and analyze the strategies that you used (or could have used) to manage these tensions. This can be one of your own relationships or a fictional one.
Summarize your analysis and provide insights on how you might apply the strategies for managing dialectical tensions in your own relationships in the future. -

“Shake Shack Investment Analysis and Financial Model: Long or Short?”
Before you bid, ensure you read properly.
Note: The general importance of the task is big – This is for a job opportunity, so please pay attention to this detail. The forecast to be extended for the next four quarters, so Q2 2024 – Q1 2025 and an additional two quarters. So including Q2 2025 and Q31) would make sure the financial model is formatted well. It doesn’t/shouldn’t necessarily match the formatting of the raw data tabs but should be formatted in a visually appealing way2) the forward projections/estimates should be relatively in line with street consensus (i.e. – the projections from JP Morgan) but will obviously be different because of assumptions used to make those forecasts deliverables are putting together a financial model and a one page write up deciding whether I’m long or short the stock I was given. The financial model should support the investment thesis in the write up.The stock is shake shack. I was given a company model for them from JP Morgan research so a lot of the historical data can be pulled from that. The model should be a three statement model that builds to a price target. The difficult part will be determining what to make assumptions and how they should be projected. The one pager should have an analysis overview, industry overview/where it’s headed, operational analysis, risks, something notable/tailored to shake shack, and a conclusion. It should also include the price target, buy/sell rating and an eps estimateSo to be clear the model should be a discounted cash flow analysis (DCF). So it should have the three financial statements like I outlined in my email with estimates and projections and then also have a free cash flow build, quick weighted average cost of capital build, and then a DCF valuation that takes enterprise value based on the DCF, backs into equity value and finds the implied share price from there.
Ensure you make use of the Excel spreadsheet for the modelling and write a one page pitch desk. -
“Analyzing the Benefits and Risks of RFID Bands for Cashless Purchases at Trade Shows” Title: Security and Privacy Concerns in Implementing RFID Technology for Event Management: A Comprehensive Analysis and Recommendations for Padgett-Beale
Scenario
The Entertainment Team (ET — part of Resort Operations at Padgett-Beale, Inc.) is excited about a new event management platform and is ready to go to contract with the vendor. This platform is a cloud-based service that provides end-to-end management for events (conferences, concerts, festivals). The head of Marketing & Media (M&M) is on board and strongly supports the use of this system. M&M believes that the data collection and analysis capabilities of the system will prove extremely valuable for its efforts. Resort Operations (RO) also believes that the technology could be leveraged to provide additional capabilities for managing participation in hotel sponsored “kids programs” and related children-only events.

For an additional fee, the event management platform’s vendor will provide customized Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) bands to be worn by attendees.
The RFID bands and RFID readers use near-field communications to identify the wearer and complete the desired transactions (e.g. record a booth visit, make a purchase, vote for a favorite activity or performer, etc.).
The RFID bands have unique identifiers embedded in the band that allow tracking of attendees (admittance, where they go within the venue, what they “like,” how long they stay in a given location, etc.).
The RFID bands can also be connected to an attendee’s credit card or debit card account and then used by the attendee to make purchases for food, beverages, and souvenirs.
For children, the RFID bands can be paired with a parent’s band, loaded with allergy information, and have a parent specified spending limit or spending preauthorization tied to the parent’s credit card account.
The head of Corporate IT has tentatively given approval for this outsourcing because it leverages cloud-computing capabilities. IT’s approval is very important to supporters of this the acquisition because of the company’s ban on “Shadow IT.” (Only Corporate IT is allowed to issue contracts for information technology related purchases, acquisitions, and outsourcing contracts.) Corporate IT also supports a cloud-based platform since this reduces the amount of infrastructure which IT must support and manage directly.
The project has come to a screeching halt, however, due to an objection by the Chief Financial Officer. The CFO has asked that the IT Governance Board investigate this project and obtain more information about the benefits and risks of using RFID bands linked to an external system which processes transactions and authorizations of mobile / cashless payments for goods and services. The CFO is concerned that the company’s PCI Compliance status may be adversely affected.
The Chief Privacy Officer has also expressed an objection about this project. The CPO is concerned about the privacy implications of tracking both movement of individuals and the tracking of their purchasing behaviors.
The IT Governance Board agreed that the concerns expressed by two of its members (the CFO and CPO) have merit. The board has requested an unbiased analysis of the proposed use cases and the security and privacy issues which could be reasonably expected to arise.
The IT Governance Board has also agreed to a request from the Chief of Staff that the management interns be allowed to participate in this analysis as their final project. Per the agreement, their involvement will be limited to providing background research into the defined use cases for cashless purchases. These use cases are:
Purchases for craft materials and snacks by children (under the age of 13) attending a hotel sponsored “kids club” program.
Purchases by Individuals attending a music festival or other event where IDs must be checked to establish proof of age (legal requirement for local alcoholic beverage consumption).
Purchases by attendees at trade shows (attendees are “adults”).
Your Task
Pick one of the three use cases listed above. Then, follow the directions below to complete the required research and write your final report.
