If one has a positive turning point and the other has a negative, the person with the positive turning point might be calmer and actually talk things out.
3. The turmoil stage, the conflict was increase and unclear relationship happened when Gilbert approach the Coach. The stagnation stage, communication declined and both took each other for granted because they were mad at each other, Gilbert because he wanted more playing time and Coach Johnson because he doesn’t like people telling him how to run things. The de-intensification stage, decreased interaction and distance both were to mad at each other that they didn’t want to talk. The individualization stage, when both are more individual than being more of a team. The separation stage, when they try to eliminate further communication between them, this is when Coach Johnson decides to put James over Gilbert.

    Week 7 Case Study 3

    Like many IT staff faced with exponential storage growth, Norman Owens realized a few years back that his company was headed for a challenge if it did not start consolidating its storage resources onto a storage area network (SAN). Owens, a storage network engineer and consultant with Carlson Companies, spoke to an audience of his peers at Storage Decisions 2003 recently about his company 's consolidation efforts. (While not necessarily a household name, Carlson Companies is an international presence behind such well-known retail and hotel chains as TGI Friday 's and Radisson hotels and resorts. Before consolidating onto a SAN, Owens ' shared services group supported a configuration with one mainframe and 26 servers, where most of the servers were hard at work supporting the company 's Oracle Financials database under HP/UX. This arrangement handled 14TB of data, over 54 SCSI and 8 ESCON connections. "It looked like a point-to-point SCSI solution," Owens said, noting, "There were a whole lot of cables." When they needed more storage, "We 'd just go buy another frame. After the company asked his group to take on more responsibilities for its global IT storage operations, Owens and his coworkers decided now was the time to look at a more consolidated approach. Enter the company 's current storage over IP "fan-out" infrastructure, with Nishan Systems ' switches and a core/edge design that Owens affectionately calls "the funnel." Commenting on their decision to move into IP-based solutions, Owens said that the ability to connect remote sites was something "we had to do, or else our storage wouldn 't have been approved." The company rolled out its extensive SAN consolidation in phases. Today, it consists of 108…

    week8 final case study

    Finding of Fact #1: The main issue the company needs to address would be the lack of communication throughout the workplace. When Dr. Jerrold hired Simon Fester no handoff ever took place for the new employee, Simon and Simon’s new supervisor, Bob. Simon was given instructions that Bob Knowlton would be in the lab. When Simon arrived in the lab he discussed that Dr. Gerald had told him about the current research as well as Bob; however, he did not give Bob the same considerations with an overview of Simon’s background. When Simon arrived for the first time inside the lab, Bob was not sure who Simon was. The first conversation that took place between Dr. Jerrold and Bob concerning Simon was the next morning when Bob was informed that Simon would be working in the lab with Dr. Jerrold. During Simon’s first days at the lab he spent several days locked inside an office reading past reports about the progress of the project. Simon never conversed with any of the other coworkers about his findings until after he’d figured out the issue. The final communication failure was when Bob finally decided to leave the lab. Bob sent a personal letter to Dr. Jerrold’s home explaining that he would be leaving the company. Bob did not fully address the issues that he had with Simon. Bob did make a statement that he would be “Glad to come back if there were any problems with his past work.” Dr. Jerrold also did not communicate to Bob that Simon’s assignment with the project was only temporary as he was going to be heading up a separate project.…

    What My Preferred Conflict Handling Styles Assessment

    With the results we were given it has come to our attention that the results show a great deal of similarities but also some differences in all the different type of styles. Based on the results we found it appears that two members of the Team A have a great deal of similarities between each other One of the styles that we have a similarity too is the style of compromising this style is the preferred conflict-handling style for two of the three team members, unfortunately we are not able to include the scores for the third team member Jeremy as we have not received any information from him or he has not responded to any of our communications. Compromising is where each of us is able to give something up. With being able to compromise this means that as an individual we are going to give something up without the fear of hurting ourselves. After going over the assessment it was found that the two team members were a lot alike in each of the styles with just a few of them that were different but this was concluded that we as a team did very well together because of the styles we had being closely matched with each other and able to understand the importance of this…
