Public Health Advocacy

By Academic Wizard Blog

Public Health Advocacy: Forming and Building Coalitions

Although individuals and organizations can advocate on their own, coalitions are particularly effective for public health advocacy. A coalition can include healthcare organizations, public and private sector agencies, for-profit companies, non-profit organizations, grassroots groups, academics, researchers, faith-based organizations, health departments, and health and social justice organizations. A coalition may have several different types of goals/missions, but overall, each aims to come together to agree on a solution to a specific problem that affects their constituents or members and overall improve aspects that affect health outcomes.

For instance, the San Diego Tobacco Control Coalition mission is to improve and protect the health of San Diegans by promoting smoke/tobacco-free lifestyles and environments. This coalition will pursue support of policies that align with improving tobacco-free lifestyles, environments and lastly those that make the default choice the healthier choice.Public Health Advocacy

This discussion activity will focus on coalitions. Students will be asked to read and identify aspects of the advocacy process that coalitions participate in. Next, students will select a coalition from a prescribed list to research, identify, and describe in order to better understand function and structure.

Step 1: Review Chapter 17 of your textbook: “Advocacy”, pps. 335-346 and the corresponding chapter PowerPoint. The following sections will clarify key components of what coalitions are and how they address advocacy issues:

Who Can Advocate?
Form a Coalition and Table 17.2
Begin “Ground Softening”
Determine Who Has the Power to Make the Change Sought
Understand the Opposition and box 17.3
Outline a Set of Possible Solutions

Step 2: Using the textbook, write 1-2 paragraphs describing coalitions in general:

What is a coalition and what members can it include/be made up of?,
Why is including a variety of members in a coalition important?,
What tool can be used to identify coalition members?,
What is ground-softening and why is it needed?,

Step 3: Research three of the coalitions identified in the links below: Public Health Advocacy

Contra Costa Tobacco Prevention Coalition Coalition for a Tobacco-Free Imperial County

Nevada Tobacco Control Prevention Coalition National Low Income Housing Coalition

Healthy Out of School Time Coalition Big Cities Health Coalition

St. Mary’s County Community Alcohol Coalition Phys Ed 4 All

Southern AIDS Coalition Lee County Injury Prevention Coalition

End Violence Against Women UK Coalition VALOR US (Formerly CA Coalition Against Sexual Assault)

Step 4: Looking at the coalition you selected from the link above summarize key aspects of the coalition you selected (2-3 paragraphs):

What is the mission & goals of the coalition?,
List 4-5 members of the coalition,
Brief description (1-2 sentences) of the public health problem the coalition is focusing on,
Review the coalition web page and tell your colleagues about what entities (organizations, policymakers, government, industry, individuals) could be considered “the opposition”? This may/may not be apparent on the web page, if not, be creative an think about what is feasible. Public Health Advocacy
Identify what could be a potential policy solution to the public health problem the coalition identifies and why (1-2 sentences).
Include a screen shot of the coalition web page and a web link

Case Study Jenkins Goes Abroad

By Academic Wizard Blog

Case Study Jenkins Goes Abroad

Jenkins Consulting is a national firm that helps companies improve their performance and effectiveness by advising on all aspects of business management and operations. Companies hire consultants from Jenkins Consulting for a variety of projects such as assisting with company-wide cost reduction initiatives or revenue growth initiatives, improving supply-chain management, and/or improving individual departments such as information technology. Jenkins employs consultants in 200 offices across the United States and will soon expand its operations internationally.

A company located in the United Kingdom has hired Jenkins for a major project that will be based at the company’s headquarters in London. Jenkins will assist the company with an organization-wide effort to restructure and reposition the company to succeed in a more competitive market. To complete this project, Jenkins will assign five full-time consultants for a period of approximately two years. Because of the significant time commitment, Jenkins has decided to relocate the selected consultants to the United Kingdom for the duration of the project. Case Study Jenkins Goes Abroad

Dale Kugar, the human resource director at Jenkins, must prepare to transition the consultants to the new assignment. This is the company’s first exposure to expatriate management, and Dale needs to ensure that the consultants who move to the United Kingdom for the project are compensated appropriately. His intention is to have the consultants maintain their current benefits, including health care insurance, retirement savings, and paid time off. However, he must make a recommendation on any changes to each consultant’s salary.

Dale has a few concerns as he prepares his recommendation. First, the United Kingdom is currently experiencing a high level of inflation. The value of the American dollar compared to the British pound is low. That is, the consultant’s U.S. salary will not have the same purchasing power in the United Kingdom as it does at home. He is also concerned about the consultants’ interest in taking on the international assignment. Some of the consultants he spoke to about the assignment are concerned about the impact the assignment will have on their career. Because this is Jenkins’ first international experience, the consultants are concerned that being out of the country for two years may affect their future career opportunities because they will not have regular interactions with the firm partners who make decisions on promotions. These concerns weigh heavily on Dale’s mind as he starts to draft his recommendation.Case Study Jenkins Goes Abroad

Please answer the following questions regarding the above case study.

13-6. How should Dale approach the determination of the consultant’s salaries as expatriates?,
13-7. Should Jenkins offer any incentive compensation or additional benefits to the expatriates?, Why or why not?,
