     So… this week we are introducing the idea of professional Journaling.
?       Read the articles on journaling, review the template in the GAP resources in the course and identify what approach in the articles you found useful and why?
?       Post to the discussion board that you have reviewed the journaling materials and what you learned, let us know if you have experience journaling, share your thoughts. If you have questions, please post. Be sure to respond to a peer
About Journaling: Whether you want to be able to look back at where you started, set a future goal for yourself and seek a new path, or just deal with present issues, journaling helps you do that in a reflective way. You need not write every day. Journaling gives you a place to better understand yourself, to plan your goals, and to follow-up on goals. One pitfall of journaling is that it can become part of a log of your feelings for any one day, try to keep these types of emotional responses from being included in your business journal. (Journal writing tips are provided in the Internship Course Resources under Supplementary Material in this GAP course).
     Now, as a personal note, those in the start up community, academics, scientists, reporters, philosophers and politicians have been using journaling both for professional and personal development for well over 2000 years. I have probably 5 or 6 journals going back over that 10 year period that I continue to refer to for inspiration, reminding me of ideas (….or mistakes!) It seems on the face of it to be a somewhat non-constructive practice, but I assure you, some of the smartest, most successful people (in history and in modern society)  have been keeping journals for most of their lives. Food for thought!.
Questions 2:
Research a current event that demonstrates a leader who is envisioning the future. You can use the Internet, electronic news agencies, print newspapers, books, or journals for your research, but the current event should be fewer than three (3) years old. In your post, address the following:
A summary of the event – at least one (1) paragraph.
Describe how the leader demonstrated “envisioning the future”
Summarize how this could apply to your current work situation.
With regard to your personal experience:
What is the vision statement of your company?
Do you believe the company is truly directed by this? Explain.

How do visions manifest in different areas of the company (e.g., actions, processes, and so forth)?

Chapter 12 Questions: 1. a. Evaluate the following statement: One of the assumptions of the constant growth model is that the required rate of return must be greater than the expected dividend growth rate. Because of this assumption, the constant growth model is of limited use in the real world.b. Two investors are evaluating the stock of Beverly Enterprises for possible purchase. They agree on the stock’s risk and on expectations about future dividends. However, one investor plans to hold the stock for five years, while the other plans to hold the stock for 20 years. Which of the two investors would be willing to pay more for the stock? Explain your answer. (5 points each; 10 Points total)2.

Gina is the charge nurse of the 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM shift on the acute care unit where you have worked for 18 months since your graduation. Your supervisor has asked you if you would like to learn the duties of the relief charge nurse. You were thrilled that she approached you for this position. Because it was a relief position, it was permissible for your supervisor to appoint you and not necessary for you to formally apply for the position.One day each week, for the last 2 weeks, you have been working with Gina about the responsibilities of the position. There are several things Gina does that bother you, and you are not sure what you should do. For example, if used supplies were inadvertently not charged to patients at the time of service, Gina admitted she would just charge them to whoever patients she thought were likely to have used them. When you questioned Gina about this, she said, “Well, at the end of the day, the unit needs to make sure that all supplies have been charged for, or the CFO will be after all of us. It is one of the charge nurses’ responsibilities, and I don’t have time to chase everyone down to find the correct patient to charge and besides everyone has insurance and so it does not come out of the patient’s pocket. Most importantly, we must make sure the hospital gets reimbursed or we won’t have our jobs.”In addition, when Gina does the staffing correlation for the upcoming shift, you notice that she fudges a bit and makes sure the night shift is given credit for needing more staff than they need. When questioned, she said, “Oh, we have to take care of each other, better too much staff than not enough.”You think Gina’s actions are unethical, but you do not know what to do about it. It does not directly harm a patient, but you feel uncomfortable about what she is doing and feel it is not the ethical thing to do.undefinedDQ: You have many options here including doing nothing. Using the MORAL ethical problem-solving model, solve this case and compare your solution with others in the class while responding to them throughout the week.Discussion Protocol.
