Assignment:
Part One
In this first component, identify a problem in your organization or community. Then, describe the problem and create an introduction to the problem that provides information from the organizational, team, and individual perspectives. The identified problem must involve one of the following elements: diversity, ethics, and cultural competency. It is also important to identify the concepts of collaborative and communication techniques that have affected the development of relationships, partnerships, and alliances.
Part Two
Create an analysis of the background of the problem. In your analysis, compile and evaluate high quality current and historical research to investigate the circumstances surrounding the problem and its implications for the public service organization. Apply critical thinking skills to provide a comprehensive background to your problem. Consider assumptions about the problem, evidence of its existence, and its impact on relationships and partnerships. Clearly delineate the problem as to the different groups that are affected by it.
