Visual Journal by James Bayer

Artifact one:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-07 16:41:34 UTC

I used this video because it explained what it is management does(objective 2) without being obscenely long.

Artifact two:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-07 16:45:47 UTC

I used this blog as an artifact because it explained to me not only why companies use different levels of management and not only how its good but how it can be detrimental for a company that does not need it.

Artifact 3:

Study.com is the resource I used during my self study of module two and it goes over everything I saw in the reading(as well as a little bit more)

Artifact 4:

Objective 3 of the module was to identify the principles of ethical decision making and I used this for that objective.

Artifact 5:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-21 16:08:55 UTC

Learning objective 4 wanted us to know why companies go international. This (extremely) short video very concisely explained why they do.

Artifact 6:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-21 16:12:05 UTC

This Virginia tech journal post is what I used to learn about objectives six through nine (as they all ask about the global business strategies).

Artifact 7:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-21 16:15:12 UTC

This course video from a different college is technically from an engineering course but it goes into nine different diagrams you can turn over and use in this course for planning and managing a business.

Artifact 8:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-21 16:20:21 UTC

This article from the "board of innovation" is what I used for objective 11, "Describe barriers to individual decision making and cognitive biases". it goes over how to see if you or someone else has bias on the subject and then gives three ways that a leader can help their team overcome bias.

Artifact 9:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-23 16:44:55 UTC

I chose this Lumen course because of Objective 3, it tells you about all four aspects of Schein's management theory as well as giving two different charts for the hierarchy of authority (the fourth of Schein's four principles)

Artifact 10:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-23 16:48:20 UTC

I chose this video as it outlines Organizational Structures while being more in depth than other videos with the same purpose as it.

Artifact 11:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-23 16:57:29 UTC

This is the official EEOC website that clearly defines and highlights which groups of people are protected under the laws that they enforce (Objective 2:Identify the categories of protected classes per the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC))

Artifact 12:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-28 00:50:27 UTC

This site as a simple chart that has the soul purpose of defining separation and termination(objective 9) side by side so you can compare the two.

Artifact 13:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-28 00:55:46 UTC

This paper by Austin Scott of Aspen University speaks about the reinforcement theory and goal setting for the majority of it. I felt like this correlated to objective 14 of module 7 which is differentiating between goal setting and reinforcement theories of motivation

Artifact 14:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-28 00:58:14 UTC

I chose this video because it goes over what intrinsic and extrinsic motivation are(and because I preferred listening to his voice over the other ones.) I chose this topic however because it is the subject of objective 11 of module 7, differentiating between intrinsic and extrinsic motivation.

Artifact 15:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-28 01:01:13 UTC

I chose this article from the university of Massachusetts because of objective 4 of module 8, which asks us to identify the four components of the PDCA cycle(there is a typo on the objective by the way)

Artifact 16

jamesabayer — 2025-04-28 01:08:08 UTC

I couldn't stand the voice on this video but I did use Evernote.com to transcribe it so my ears wouldn't bleed. It goes over what a performance metric is, why they're important, and what types of performance metrics there are which I felt correlated to objective 2 of module 8, "Identify performance measurement tools and evaluation processes".

Artifact 17!:

jamesabayer — 2025-04-28 01:08:57 UTC

Objective 11 of module 8 is my visual journal! so here it is, my visual journal, of course directly correlating to the objective.
