  • National Council on Public History (NCPH)

    we focus on public history as a form of public culture, not just as a set of historical topics, but as a way knowledge, memory, and authority are produced for and with publics. You will explore the website of the National Council on Public History (NCPH), the primary professional organization for public historians in the United States.


    Prompt 1: Public History as Institutional Practice

    Using the NCPH website as your primary source, write 600800 words analyzing:

    • How public history is framed as a field, profession, or practice
    • What assumptions are made about publics, expertise, and ethics
    • How authority is claimed, shared, or negotiated

    Support your analysis with specific references to site language and structure, and connect your observations to course concepts.


    Prompt 2: Professionalization, Public Culture, and Power

    Professional organizations shape public culture in important ways.

    In 600800 words, discuss:

    • How NCPH formalizes public history (through standards, language, resources, or advocacy)
    • What this formalization enables
    • What it may constrain or leave unaddressed

    Ground your analysis in close reading of the website.


    Prompt 3: Reflexive Analysis

    Approach the NCPH website as both an object and a method.

    In 600800 words, reflect on:

    • How the site teaches visitors how to think about public history
    • What kinds of responsibility, urgency, or affect it produces
    • How this shapes your understanding of public-facing scholarship or work

    This should be reflective and analytical, grounded in the site itself.

    Three section each section need to be 600-800 words

    Once you have implemented your organizational and leadership development plans, you need to apply strategies for improving employee relations as well as performance. This means your leadership team should be ready to address any type of issue that arises with employees, including the relationship between productive and counterproductive behaviors. The development of a final piece to your organizational culture puzzle is the development and implementation of an employee relations plan to address such issues before they become a problem within an organizations culture.

    Imagine ACME Industries has a final assignment for you after the success of your previous projects. With an organizational and leadership development plan now both in place, the CEO asks you to analyze the relationship between productive and counterproductive behaviors in the company and assess the benefits of implementing an employee relations plan.

    Research employee relations plans.

    Include the following in your analysis, assessment, and plan:

    • From your point of view, identify the top 5 productive and top 5 counterproductive behaviors in an organization.
    • Analyze the relationship between your identified behaviors.
    • Identify potential issues that might arise from these behaviors.
    • Explain what an employee relations plan for ACME will look like, addressing all elements such a plan might include.
    • Assess the impact that implementing an employee relations plan would have on ACMEs overall culture.
    • Recommend strategies to implement an employee relations plan at ACME Industries.
    • How will these strategies eliminate a toxic work environment?
    • How will these strategies ensure a fair and equitable place to work for all employees at ACME?

  • Leadership

    1a. For this course, I chose Radical Candor by Kim Scott. This book strongly aligns with my current and desired leadership style because it emphasizes leading with both empathy and accountability. Scott introduces the concept of caring personally while challenging directly, which resonates with how I view effective leadership, particularly in healthcare. In high-stakes environments, leaders must balance compassion with clarity to maintain trust, safety, and performance. What I hope to gain from this book is a deeper understanding of how to provide honest feedback without damaging relationships. Authentic leadership requires transparency and integrity, but it also requires emotional intelligence. Radical Candor reframes difficult conversations as an act of care rather than confrontation, which is especially important in healthcare settings where mistakes, stress, and burnout are common. I want to strengthen my ability to address issues directly while still supporting and valuing my team members as individuals. One of the most influential ideas I have encountered so far is Scotts assertion that being nice but avoiding honesty can be more harmful than being direct. This challenged my previous assumptions about leadership, as I often equated kindness with avoiding discomfort. The book reinforces that respect is earned through consistency, fairness, and clear expectations, not avoidance. My perspective on healthcare leadership has been shaped by observing leaders who were trusted because they were transparent, approachable, and held themselves to the same standards as their teams. Radical Candor affirms that authentic leadership is not about authority, but about earning respect through honesty, empathy, and accountability. 1b. Hi class, The leadership book I selected for this course is The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People by Stephen R. Covey. This book strongly aligns with my desired leadership style because it emphasizes principle-centered leadership, personal responsibility, and long-term effectiveness rather than quick results. Coveys focus on self-awareness, integrity, and collaboration reflects the type of leader I strive to become in healthcare, where trust and ethical decision-making are essential. Through this book, I hope to gain new knowledge about authentic leadership, particularly how leading oneself effectively is the foundation for leading others. Coveys emphasis on habits such as being proactive and seeking first to understand before being understood highlights the importance of emotional intelligence and empathy, which are critical in healthcare leadership roles. One of the most influential ideas in the book so far is the concept of being proactive. Covey explains that effective leaders take responsibility for their actions and responses rather than reacting to circumstances. This idea resonated with me because healthcare environments are often fast-paced and stressful, requiring leaders to remain calm, accountable, and solutions-focused. My experience working in patient access has shaped my views on healthcare leadership. I have seen how clear communication, empathy, and accountability directly affect patient experiences and team morale. Leaders who listen, support their teams, and model professionalism create a positive environment that ultimately improves patient care. Covey, S. R. (1989). The 7 habits of highly effective people. Free Press.
