Saint Marys University of Minnesota Nonverbal Communication Discussion

Description

Nonverbal signs and symbols are sometimes very clear and easy to interpret and put into words, sometimes they’re more subtle or ambiguous and we come to understand them after more thought or observation. For this discussion topic, we will spend some time studying and observing portraits for nonverbal messages that symbolize “home” and “family.”

To start, visit this MPR News article on Photographer Scott Streble’s Front Porch Portraits. Spend some time studying the pictures, choose one to focus on, and fill out the following table. Then copy and paste both the photo and the table into a discussion post. Check back to see what your classmates noticed about the pictures and how we show what family and home are in our nonverbal messages.

The Government of China Decided to Have a 3 Child Policy 2021 Case Study

Description

This case study analysis will be related to my previous assignment, a policy brief (attached below), and will discuss the same policy I chose: China’s current three-child policy. I have also attached a Problem Definition Analysis Example paper. Please write accordingly.

Task: In order to apply the concepts developed in this course, you will develop a 1,750-word analysis in response to the following question (below). Your answer must draw on relevant policy analysis concepts/ theories/issues in order to demonstrate an understanding of the case.

In the country of your choice, address the SAME issue which got onto the government’s agenda (at the national or sub-national level), identify and examine two key elements:

(a) the way in which the ‘problem’ was defined by public authorities,

(b) and explain why the problem was defined in this way.

Pose as a Friend Work as a Spy Discussion

Description

Law 9

Win through your Actions, Never through Argument

Any momentary triumph you think gained through argument is really a Pyrrhic victory: The resentment and ill will you stir up is stronger and lasts longer than any momentary change of opinion. It is much more powerful to get others to agree with you through your actions, without saying a word. Demonstrate, do not explicate.


Law 14

Pose as a Friend, Work as a Spy

Knowing about your rival is critical. Use spies to gather valuable information that will keep you a step ahead. Better still: Play the spy yourself. In polite social encounters, learn to probe. Ask indirect questions to get people to reveal their weaknesses and intentions. There is no occasion that is not an opportunity for artful spying.
