Complete Short Discussion Post for Argosy

Assignment 1: Jury and Work Group Decision Making

You must gain an insight into how a group’s decision-making process that works in juries can also work in small-group decision making in the human services field. Specific learning will occur when comparing the similarities and differences between jury decision making and organizational decision making in groups.

In this assignment, you will conduct a research on professional literature using the Argosy University online library resources and the Internet to address how the jury’s decision-making process is both similar to and different from the group’s decision-making process in the human services field. The literature may include relevant textbooks, peer-reviewed journal articles, and websites created by professional organizations, agencies, or institutions (.edu, .org, or .gov).

Tasks:

In a minimum of 400 words, respond to the following:

• Discuss how the jury’s decision-making process is related to group decision making in human services, such as a governing board of an organization making a decision about an infraction by one of the clinicians.
• Compare and contrast the jury’s decision-making process with the group’s decision-making process of the governing board of an agency.

Submission Details:

• By the due date assigned, post your responses to this Discussion Area.
• Through the end of the module, respond to at least two other classmates’ posts. While responding, you must focus on how your classmates have presented the similarities and differences between jury group decision making and the group decision-making processes of the governing board of an agency. In addition, note the comparisons between the two groups with special attention to how the groups will go through the decision-making process.
