Explain how organizations can create team players

Definitions: Morality, Attribution Error, Selective Perception, Pay Gender Gap

Illustration #1: Donald Trump Insulting-Deporting Mexicans

Illustration #2: The Central Park Five (Netflix’s Miniseries: “When They See Us…”

Application: This theory can be applied to the problem of Gender Pay Gap

Example: AAUW Teams Up with New York City to Train Women to “Ask for More”

Implications: If women learned to ask for higher wages, then they would (1) negotiate higher salaries, (2) feel a higher sense of morality in the workplace (3) have improved professional development and cognitive skills (4) get higher pay when in military combat roles

Example 2:

Theory: Formal regulations should be made to favor everyone involved.

Definitions: Regulations, Hunger, Cross Contamination, Professionalism

Illustration #1: Food service establishment regulations

Illustration #2: Fire drills

Application: This theory can be applied to the problem of hunger

Example: Venezuela’s food shortage

Implications: If Venezuelan president Maduros’ decisions and regulations favored the country’s citizens, then there would be (1) less disease, (2) more food (3) happier, healthier citizens (4) less migration to other countries (5) fewer deaths

Final thoughts

1. The theory is something that you create based on your reading of the chapter. It is your original thought and is not taken verbatim from the textbook. I’m looking for your creativity and perspectives based on the reading.

2. Definitions – You provide the definitions that relate to your TIAI and will help the readers (your classmates and me) understand the arguments you are creating. The definitions come from the chapter and other sources.

3. Example – This is an example of your application. Don’t confuse it with the two illustrations of your theory. Take a closer look at the Practice Labs above.

4. Implications – These relate to your application and its example. You should “connect the dots” here on a micro level. Don’t give broad or general implications such as “increase profits” or “more sales”. This is too easy and unacceptable. I want you thinking on a micro and deeper level than this. Take a closer look at the two Practice Labs above.
