Herzberg’s two-factor theory speaks to issues relevant in both employee compensation and benefits, as it discusses why people choose a workplace as well as what keeps employees satisfied and committed to their work. For more information on Herzberg’s two-factor theory, research online.

Imagine that you are an HR manager in a cutting-edge health organization, then answer the following questions:

• Who are you trying to recruit to work for you (i.e., who is your audience)?
• What sort of compensation and benefits package do you need to provide?
• What would you include from Herzberg’s two-factor theory to ensure you would recruit the best candidates for the position?
• What type of wording would you use? What makes your workplace more appealing? Give an example.

Your work on your strategic global marketing plan is complete. You now have a plan that will implement, manage, and support a global strategy, but it is far from organized. You e-mail Deborah to inform her that you are almost ready and that the initial planning is complete. A little while later, the phone rings and you see Deborah’s name on the caller ID.

“Hi, Deborah. What’s up?” you ask.

“I’d like you to present to the advisory board next week,” Deborah says. “They are very curious about your findings and would like to know if globalization is a good opportunity for the company. The board wants to finalize their strategic plan, and this may be a key part of it.”

After you hang up, you begin thinking through the different items that you will need to cover.

As you finalize the marketing plan, complete the following:

• Is globalization a good move for the company?
• What is your rationale behind this decision? Synthesize analysis conducted in previous units, including strategic considerations, cultural considerations, competitive analysis and balanced scorecard.
• What geographic location should be a target for global expansion?
• What background information can you provide to support this decision?
• How will this decision support the overall goal of growth and expansion?

1#.  It is difficult to say whether the judge was too lenient without knowing all the case details or having another case to compare it. Also, it is important to note that the judge reduced the charge from a felony to a misdemeanor and fined the father $100.00. This suggests that the judge considered the cultural differences and tried to find a middle ground. However, according to the United States Department of State, Guatemala ratified the Convention on the Rights of the Child (CRC) in 1990, which prohibits any form of violence against children, including physical or mental injury or abuse, neglect or negligent treatment, maltreatment or exploitation (US Department of State, n.d.).Therefore, the judge’s decision to reduce the charge from a felony to a misdemeanor and to impose a fine of $100.00 seems to violate these laws and conventions, as well as the principle of the child’s best interests.

This case is an excellent example of cross-cultural conflict. The father’s actions were deemed acceptable in his culture but not in the American culture. It is essential to understand that different cultures have different beliefs and practices regarding child-rearing. What may be considered acceptable in one culture may not be acceptable in another.

As for reporting this case to Child Protective Services, it was the right thing to do. Child Protective Services is responsible for investigating reports of child abuse and neglect. In this case, school staff noticed the bandage on the boy’s hand and learned from him how he sustained the injury. They had a legal obligation to report this incident to Child Protective Services, which they did. It is vital to note that child abuse and neglect can have severe consequences on a child’s physical and emotional well-being. Reporting suspected child abuse and neglect cases can help protect children from harm.

Question: Should someone who moves to another country familiarize themselves with that countries cultures and laws? if so do you think this father should be held to our cultures and laws?

2#       This issues and conflict brought about in this case study are more common than one would think. In determining whether or not the judge was too lenient in the case there are several factors that must be considered. One of those is, what is or what could be the universal definition of abuse? According to the Federal Child Abuse Prevention and Treatment Act, abuse is “any recent act or failure to act on the part of a parent or caretaker which results in death, serious physical or emotional harm, sexual abuse or exploitation or an act or failure to act which presents an imminent risk of serious harm” (brycs.org, 2023).  In my opinion the act of the father regardless of whether or not he saw it as an acceptable punishment culturally falls under this category. He caused his son serious physical harm and it was intentional. Another factor to consider is that he has been reported before abusing his son that were separate from the burn incident. Even though by his standards personally and culturally the ways in which he punishes his son are acceptable they without a doubt cause serious consequences on his son. A 100.00 fine hardly constitutes an acceptable form of punishment to make up for his acts. Lastly the argument that in his father’s country this punishment is acceptable, he is not in that country anymore and the laws in the United States are the laws that apply now. The judge in this case has an obligation to uphold these laws and assign the punishment for breaking them. Would he give the same punishment to a father from the United States? I highly doubt it. Furthermore who is to say that after the fine he won’t continue to inflict serious unacceptable harm on the child. What I do believe is that the parents most definitely should be educated as far as the laws and definitions of abuse. Sometimes when we know better we do better. 

Question for the class; What do you think would happen if the roles were reversed an a American father was abusing their child in another country? 

 In response to your peers, suggest an activity to incorporate into working with a client experiencing these challenges. 

1#.  In working with patients who have experienced pressure to leave their thinking racial practice, my approach would highlight racial sensitivity and respect their common experience. “Culture is frequently classified as a  wide and vexed definition  in million of ways depending on the area of study  and opinion of humans using the definition” (Gopalkrishnan,2018 Page 1). I would make a secure, not judgemental space for them to tour their feelings and skills, motivating an open dialogue. Furthermore,  I would assist patients to tour the strengths and resources they can gain from their cultural background and point out the morals of cultural diversity. “One of the primary complication  experiencing in mental health experts  is comprehending the difficult duties  and cultural diversity

2#.  My approach would be to be empathetic to my client. I would have them tell me what beliefs are important to them and how adopting new ideals and customs would change who they are as a person. I would let them know that pressuring someone to give up something that is important to someone can make that person resentful.  I would ask them if they feel that fitting in to the customs of the culture they are currently in supresses their heritage and ethnicity in ways that bother them, and if so how can they keep true to their own true roots while adopting some of the new ideals, if that is what they truly want and value. I would also challenge them on why (what is their motivation) and who they are trying to fit into ways of the dominant culture for, is it for themselves or someone, something (job, college) they are trying to impress? Understanding what motivates them to want to change can be helpful in deciding what is helpful for them. Also, asking what cultural traditions are important they keep. Is there a way they can do both, and knowing that I am supportive of whatever they chose or dont’t chose. 

Another thing I would bring up with my client is how will this change effect their family structure. Certain cultures are very family focused and follow cultural ways faithfully. How will giving up some of their cultural practices for different ones change how the family feels toward them or functions together.

Question to class: How does your culture feel about depression, anxiety and other mental health issues?
