Leading Meetings

Employees with speech impediment may face challenges in their work and communication. The employee with speech impediment will find it difficult to communicate and articulate issues effectively. Based on the case, the employee with speech impediment and the head of department would find it challenging to cope with the presentations’ requirements.

Solving the dilemma

The dilemma of the employee with the speech impediment can be solved through many ways.

Solution 1: use of projector for presentation

The department head should allow the employee to have an oral presentation and use power point slides using a projector. With the projector, the employee will demonstrate the progress made in the project assigned. The employee will be able to back up the projects’ report with photographs, videos and tables. The audience will be able to follow the presentations both orally and visually.

Solution 2: report print outs

The head of the department should also allow the employee with the speech impediment to prepare a summarized report and print out. The print outs should be distributed to the audience to refer to during the presentations. The print outs should be detailed and logically explain what needs to be captured.

Solution 3: pre-emailed report content

Many organizations have today adopted ICTs and e-commerce strategies. The head of the department should allow the employee with the speech impediment to send the project reports through email to the audience before the presentation. During the actual presentation, the employee with speech impediment will do a summary of the key areas. An effective meeting should have its agenda sent in advance and the attendees informed about it. When sending the agenda for the presentations, the contents of the oral presentations by the employee with speech impediment should accompany them. The audience will be able to follow the presentations since they would be required to go through the contents in advance.

Solution 4: allowing more time

Finally, in leading the meetings, the head of the department should give the employee more time than the colleagues. The team members should be lobbied to accept the decision and support the employee with speech impediment. The support would boost the employee’s morale, confidence and urge to prove that speech impediment is not a limitation in workplace.

This article explores how stress is brought about. Stress is brought about by the stressors. Daily events that may trigger stress includes traffic, money, losing an item such as a key or a wallet as well as quality of physical environment Stressors are physically or psychologically demanding circumstances or events. The researchers have often linked stressors to increase in an individual’s susceptibility to illnesses such as heart diseases as well as psychological disorders like anxiety and depression. Stressors can either be biological, environmental, an event or external stimuli. Daily events that may trigger stress includes traffic, money, losing an item such as a key or a wallet as well as quality of physical environment. Environmental stressors on the other hand entails things such as overcrowding, Over-illumination, hypo or hyper-thermic temperatures as well as sound levels. Life changes may also be stressors and the include things such as bereavement and divorce. Chemical stressors are often things such as alcohol, tobacco and other kinds of drugs. The paper highlights ways which we get to experience stress in our daily life. At times our mind needs to take a break from the stressors and at times we know what we really need to do. For example, if the job is the source of your stress, then you may need to take a short break away from it. The article also points out socializing as a great way of dealing with stress. People who lack a social life are often likely to undergo depression due to stress and at times even commit suicide.

This paper will serve as a key referencing point especially in my introduction where I will introduce the various types of stressors that exist. It will also serve as an important source while writing on the coping mechanism including strategies one can apply while at home as well as strategies such as psychotherapy that requires professional help. stress. The paper will point out the negative impacts associated with stress including the fact that it may lead to other psychological disorders such as depression and a weak immune system. Stress management has thus become quite important focus to many psychologists. This source will serve the purpose of helping me highlight the various measures one can take in order to overcome stressful situations in their life a key aspect in building and arguing out my body paragraphs.

I choose this article because it is from a reliable author who utilizes a conglomeration of other article to support his work. The article incorporates statistics on the research and quotes reliable sources making the article itself reliable. The paper does a good job in highlighting factors that triggers stress and how one can cope. It also categorizes the coping mechanism from which one can practice while at home to those that need psychiatric help including the various forms of therapies. Despite the article explaining ways one can deal with stress and burnout, it however does not clearly list categorically ways a person deals with ways to prevent stress. The article does not also highlight the various disadvantages associated with the therapies and how one can choose the best coping mechanism. It also focusses on adults and fails to show how children and teenagers may be in a position to deal and cope with stress. In dealing with stressful situation, most people tend to believe that only adults are affected. This is partially true as adults are affected in large numbers as compared to children. However, children too encounter stressful situations and their coping mechanism may not be as same as the adults and this article fails to do so..
