Com 20103 11417 M31 Professional Codes Of Conduct

Competency In this project, you will demonstrate your mastery of the following competency: • Integrate elements of professional codes of conduct and personal behaviors, as well as principles of team dynamics, in a variety of communication contexts Scenario Whole Health is a large company that partners with various organizations to promote employees making healthy choices at work, whether it be making nutritious decisions in the cafeteria, getting up and moving during the day, or taking a few minutes to do something that makes them happy each day. They have recently decided that their current messaging systems to the employees of the organizations they work with need to be revamped, so they assembled a small team of representatives from various departments to brainstorm how to approach this task. In the small group, there is an incredible amount of experience, creativity, and work ethic; however, each representative has a distinct set of priorities and expectations for the final product, which has made working together rather difficult. You have offered to help mitigate this roadblock by developing a set of collaborative norms that exemplify professional codes of conduct and principles of team dynamics that can be shared with the group. Directions For this project, you will develop a set of collaborative norms that exemplify professional codes of conduct and principles of team dynamics, and that your project team at Whole Health can use to overcome barriers hindering their ability to effectively collaborate on revising messaging to their clients’ employees. To complete this task, you will need to do the following: Part 1: Collaborative Norm Development: • Analyze the Project Team Notes document to identify potential barriers to collaboration. o Are there conflicting priorities? o Are there conflicting working styles? o Where might implicit bias impact collaboration? • Examine professional codes of conduct and principles of team dynamics that can address the identified barriers. Possible questions to consider are: o What are considered best practices when collaborating professionally? o How can information sharing and feedback be used to build professional relationships? o What is the role of emotional intelligence in collaboration? • Develop five to eight collaborative norms that your project team can use to collaborate effectively, with a brief explanation of their purpose and value. Make sure to consider the following: o How are your collaborative norms supported by professional codes of conduct? o How do your norms support principles of team dynamics? o How will your norms address your identified barriers to collaboration? o How will your norms encourage effective collaboration and meet the needs of all project team members? Part 2: Collaborative Norm Implementation: • Determine how the new norms should be shared and used by the project team. o How should the norms be introduced to the team to increase buy-in? o How will they be used as work continues? What to Submit Every project has a deliverable or deliverables, which are the files that must be submitted before your project can be assessed. For this project, you must submit the following: 1. Part 1: Collaborative Norm Development Develop a set of five to eight collaborative norms, with 5- to 7-sentence explanations for each norm that can be shared with others. 2. Part 2: Collaborative Norm Implementation In 250–350 words, explain how you plan to present and use your developed norms with your project team.
