Assignment 4 – Crisis Communication at Nuance: Analysis and Recommendations to Restore Image of Nuance Essay

Assignment Guidelines

Due Dates: Sunday, March 1st, by 11:59 PM EST

Page Requirement:

5-6 pages, 12 point font, double-spaced

WHY: This assignment gives you the opportunity to apply course concepts to the analysis of a crisis situation at The Nuance Group, a global consulting firm. Assume Nuance does NOT have a crisis communication plan in place. By analyzing the situation Nuance faces and making recommendations for an effective response to restore its image, you will demonstrate an understanding of the major themes and concepts in organizational communication by synthesizing what you have learned during the course.

WHAT: Based on case 10.1 in the Zaremba textbook, analyze the crisis at Nuance and recommend the image restoration approaches you believe will be most effective in this scenario.

Your analysis and recommendations should consider the following questions:

Analysis:

  • Why is this such a severe crisis for Nuance?
  • What does the crisis tell us about Nuance’s organizational culture and their standards of ethical communication?

Recommendations for communication action steps to restore the image of Nuance:

  • In order (first, second, third), who are the target audiences and what messages will you deliver to each of them?
  • Why will you deliver them in that order?
  • How you will deliver them?

You must apply what you’ve learned about culture, ethical communication, crisis communication, networks, media selection and meetings as you construct your analysis of the events that occurred at Nuance and develop recommendations for responding to the crisis.

You must use the APA style of citation. You must include a minimum of three direct references from course readings (i.e. Zaremba textbook, assigned articles) used in your analysis, although you will likely use more. You must also include a sample communication in your final section and a references page at the end of the essay.

You must use a thesis statement to guide your essay. You must also use the provided rhetorical form to structure the essay. Guidelines on both are found below.

HOW: Gather your evidence in order to support your thesis.

  • Read the case three times.
  1. First reading: Identify key facts, issues, themes, and characters.
  2. Second reading: Highlight text that discusses: Why is this such a severe crisis for Nuance?
  3. Third reading: Highlight text that discusses: What does the crisis tell us about Nuance’s organizational culture and standards of ethical communication?
  • Write a thesis statement.

SUGGESTED THESIS MODEL

Nuance’s problem ________________________________________________________ caused by ______________________________________, ___________________________________, and _____________________________________ can be solved if ____________________________ does ____________________________________, _______________________________, and _________________________________________. (Feel free to list more causes and recommendations).

  • Write a rough draft and support your thesis with references to the case and course readings.
  • Make sure your rough draft and final draft uses the rhetorical arrangement written below.
  • Be realistic about what can be communicated within the first 48 hours. Assume Nuance does not have a crisis communication plan in place.

APA Citation Basics:

When using APA format, follow the author-date method of in-text citation. So if you are paraphrasing material from a source, you need to cite the source. Example: “According to Jones (1998), the concept of serial distortion applies to a wide range of……”

If you are directly quoting from a work, you will need to include the author, year of publication, and the page number for the reference (preceded by “p.”). Introduce the quotation with a signal phrase that includes the author’s last name followed by the date of publication in parentheses. Example: According to Jones (1998), “Students often had difficulty using APA style, especially when it was their first time” (p. 199).

scientific journal 1

by

You will write a short essay, 1-2 pages in length, detailing the parts of the scientific method discussed in your article and comparing that information to what was reported in the news story. Each entry will be written in a logical and professional manner using the APA template attached to the post.

The entire entry must be written IN YOUR OWN WORDS. Direct quotes of the articles are not allowed. However, when you summarize or paraphrase something from one of the articles you will need to provide an in-text APA reference.

The essay must be written entirely in third person. DO NOT USE FIRST OR SECOND PERSON. This means you cannot use the words “I”, “we”, or “you”.


ntroduction (1 paragraph)

This section identify which of the two articles was the scientific study and the subject of the scientific study. You will also identify the problem or observation that spurred the research. DO NOT LIST THE RESULTS OF THE STUDY ITSELF HERE. You will identify the hypothesis the scientists were testing. Remember that a hypothesis is a testable educated guess. Thus, it is not appropriate to pose a question here. However, while reading your articles, it can be helpful to ask yourself what explanation scientists tried to use to explain their initial observation. You will then transition into the body of the journal.

Body (~1 paragraph each)

Here, you will identify the test or experiment that was performed to address the hypothesis. You should be detailed here. It may be helpful to pull from other sources, if you do not fully understand how the experiment was conducted. After detailing how the experiment was done compared to how it reported in the media, you will transition into a discussion of the results.

In this section of your entry you will identify the experimental results that the scientists obtained. What did the scientists find after doing their experiment? Again, you can be detailed here. After detailing the results, you will transition into the conclusion sections.

The last paragraph of the body should explain the conclusion of the study. You should address whether the hypothesis was supported or rejected, and how the results led to that finding. Also provide a possible new avenue of research the scientists might pursue based on what was discovered in this study.

Evaluation (1 paragraph)

Here you will signal the end of your entry. In this section you will identify the new study about the scientific study and discuss whether or not the news story was a representative reporting of the scientific study. Did the news change anything or leave out something important from the scientific study? Summarize the important content from your entry, then you will end with a definitive final statement.

Constructing your journal entry

In addition to the criteria above, you will be graded on the quality of your writing; please write with proper grammar, punctuation, and style. The essay will be graded using the Dialogues of Learning Written Communication Rubric.

All sources (including the original 2 articles) should be properly documented. You must include an APA style reference page. Your TurnItIn score should be below 20 for this assignment.

cmst 220 discussion

by

(Ch.6+7+13+16)

1010 unread replies.1010 replies.

Link to online textbook: http://www.publicspeakingproject.org/psvirtualtext… (Links to an external site.) (all chapters are also available in the files section in canvas)

These responses are designed to help you work through the class material in order to be ready to participate in class discussions. Because this class is heavily front-loaded, you will want to read strategically (there are multiple chapters in most of the Discussion prep assignments).

How/when/what to submit:

You’ll need to read the assigned reading (read strategically – focusing on the things that are new to you and/or that you think apply to you personally as a speaker) and post your thoughts to canvas no later than the deadline listed in canvas.

What to write about:

These responses are open-ended so you can write about whatever you want or need to, but earnest effort to produce an academic examination of the text or material is expected. For example, your discussion prep could detail your reaction to the text, address some problematic or puzzling aspect of the text, discuss an aspect of the reading that you found particularly interesting, and/or simply relate the reading to previous information or experiences you have encountered. If, after the reading, you were left with more questions than answers, then discuss those – maybe try searching out additional information from other texts or online.

At a minimum, your response should identify what you read in the text (and where you found it in the text), show that you understood it (or are able to ask educated questions about it), and show that you can apply this new knowledge to a public speaking situation (for example, “in high school I gave a speech and ____ happened” or “I can see this applying to speeches I might have to give in the workplace because _____” or any other way you can connect what you read to “the real world”)..

You do not necessarily need to summarize the work for us (or provide unnecessary definitions), but if it helps your response, then include them. Even if we read the same thing you did, we don’t know your take on it. So, one of your chief responsibilities is to explain your thinking to us clearly, concisely, and convincingly (i.e. use examples, be as brief as possible without compromising the integrity of your thoughts, and use quotes/examples from the reading(s) to strengthen or clarify your position).

Response length & grading:

These are submitted as discussion posts so you might want to write and save them in a word processing program like MS word first and then copy-paste into Canvas to submit (that way you don’t have to worry about any technical issues).

These don’t need to be novels but they do need to be thorough. Make sure your response is 100-150 words per chapter in the assignment (so 1 well-formed paragraph per chapter). If there are multiple chapters in a reading assignment, you should address each chapter individually (you can do this by responding 2 each chapter individually in one post or make a separate post for each chapter).

Each individual Discussion prep assignment is worth zero points according to canvas because it will receive either a complete or incomplete grade. Complete/Incomplete grading means that if your response meets all of the criteria above, you will earn a complete grade for an individual Discussion prep assignment. You will earn an incomplete grade if you do not meet all of the criteria above (content, length, addressing cach/all chapters assigned, turning in by the deadline, etc.). The total number of *complete* grades you earn on these will determine your Overall discussion prep grade. That will be based on the following scale:

*complete all 9 => 3pts

*complete 6-8 => 2pts

*complete 3-5 => 1pt

*complete 0-2 => 0pts

also these questions might helps too :

  • The author discusses linguistic capital and the way students were using by translating poetry from Spanish into English and writing music lyrics. Think back to your childhood education, did your teachers use linguistic capital, if so how?
  • What are some examples of capital that you have personally experienced in your experiences with language, literacy and/or school?
  • What are some pro’s and/or cons of living as a transfronterizx (living in between two worlds)? How do you think this affects transfronterizx student’s education?
  • Depending on where you are at and who you are with, does your use of language change or does it always stay the same? In what ways do you adapt your language to the social setting you are in? Why so?
  • Why do you think the one-way and two-way immersion programs work better than the other bilingual programs?
  • From the narratives of the transfronterizx students, which one did you find most impactful and why?
