Using the Ashford University Library, locate and discuss a scholarly article that describes a successful change initiative within an organization. Next, locate and discuss a scholarly article that describes a failed change initiative within an organization. Compare and contrast the implementation theories used for the change events discussed in the two articles. Provide a summation of what could have been done to make the failed initiative a success.
The Garden Concrete Product Company can of produces four typesof concrete blocks. Each block is subjected to four processes:batch mixing, mould, inspection and yard drying. The plant managerwants to maximize profits during the next month. During the nextthirty days, he has 800 machine hours available on the batch mixer,1 000 hours on the
mould and 340 man-hours of inspection time. Yard-drying time isunconstrained.The production manager has formulated his problem asa linear program with the following initial
tableau, where X1, X2, X3, X4 represent the number of pallets ofthe four types of blocks. max 8×1+14×2+30×3+50×4
subject to
1×1+2×2+10×3+16×41.5×1+2×2+4×3+5×40.5×1+0.6×2+1×3+2×4
2. The 800 machine-hours capacity on the batch mixer is uncertain.For what range of machine hours
on the batch mixer will it remain feasible to produce blocks 1 and2?
3 A competitor located next door has offered the manager additionalbatch-mixing time at a rate
of R4,00 per hour. Should he accept this offer? Attached
You are to identify three (3) situations where either a team member or a leaderbehaved in the following ways on a project you were working on:
?The good: exemplary project management behavior was observed
?The bad: poor project management behavior was observed
?The ugly: unacceptable project management behavior was observed
Each case can be either something you were personally involved in or observed, or something you read about. You can use team work in your MBA.
For each ‘case’ you are required to write approx. 500 words for each scenario :
1.A description of the context and the case
2.A critical reflection on why you felt the case to be ‘good’, ‘bad’, or ‘ugly.
3.Offer the lessons learnt for project management practice
The critical reflection should draw on the resources and material covered in Week 1 and 2 of the course.
Academic referencing to source material is required.
Prepare your submission as a report;including an Introduction and a Conclusion (approx. 500 words in total).
?Introduction: State the aims of the assessment
?Conclusion: Collating the lessons learnt, what have these cases taught you about project work?
You can use the peer to peer forum to discuss and discussions will also occur in class

Write a 5-page paper in APA-Style not including coversheet on Mental Health, target population
or practice setting from a practice perspective. Research the problem in terms of its history,
current scope of the problem, and issues involved in providing human services. Describe
how human service professionals are involved in working with this population or in the
practice setting. Describe the current services that are available (locally in the Houston, Texas) to address the issue.
Your task is to use OpenSSL to perform a set of cryptographic operations. When performing
cryptographic operations you must be very careful, as a small mistake (such as a typo) may
mean the result is an insecure system. Read the instructions carefully, understand the examples,
and where possible, test your approach (e.g. if you encrypt a file, test it by decrypting it and
comparing the original to the decrypted). It is recommended you use virtnet to perform the
operations.
Perform the following steps:
(a) For all the following steps, record the command(s) you used in a file called
[studentID]-commands.bash. This file should be a Bash shell script, containing only
commands that can be executed and optionally comments (starting with # character).
(b) Generate your own RSA 2048-bit key pair. Use the public exponent of 65537. Save
your key pair as [studentID]-keypair.pem.
(c) Extract your public key and save it as [studentID]-pubkey.pem.
(d) Create a text file called [studentID]-message.txt and include your student ID and
full name inside the file. This file is referred to as the message or plaintext.
(e) Sign your message file using SHA256, saving the signature as [studentID]-
signature.bin.
(f) Generate a 128 bit random value using OpenSSL. This value will be used as a secret
key. Store the key as a 32 hex digit string in a file [studentID]-key.txt.
(g) Encrypt your message file using AES-128-CBC and the key generated in step (f). Use
an IV of all 0’s (that is, 32 hex 0’s). Save the ciphertext as [studentID]-
ciphertext.bin.
(h) Encrypt your [studentID]-key.txt file using RSA so that only the Unit Coordinator
can view the contents. Save the encrypted key as [studentID]-secretkey.bin

From the scenario, I think that the best tools to use in order to determine if TFC should expand or not are the NPV and IRR methods. NPV is the difference between the present value of cash inflows and the present value of cash outflows. It provides a measurement of how much money the project will give to all shareholders of the business and is said to be the best tool to use when making the decision to move forward with a project. IRR is the interest rate at which the net present value of all cash flows from a project equal zero and is used to analyze if a project or an investment is attractive enough to pursue. IRR is the measurement of the rate of return a project but also presumes that the cash flows can be put back into the business at the IRR rate. The NPV and IRR show which projects to take on and what to expect from those projects. According to the scenario, TFC was using the 10.92% number as the discount rate and listed out a NPV of $23,164,711 and an IRR of 11.84%. The NPV is a positive number indicative of profit so, therefore, it makes sense for TFC to make the decision for the expansion.

What are some examples from other cultures?
