As Marketing Manager, you are responsible for a team of ten employees that live in different states. You have to meet critical deadlines and often times in short timeframes. Lately one of your valuable team members has been disgruntled and is complaining about everything, even things unrelated to work.For this Assignment write a detailed one to two page response to the questions found in the rubric file below.Leadership and Employee Morale You value your company’s virtual team policy of letting employees live all across the United States while using technology to collaborate and communicate with one another in order to accomplish the work. As Marketing Manager, you are responsible for a team of ten employees that live in differentstates. You have to meet critical deadlines and often times in short timeframes. Lately one of yourvaluable team members, James Dion has been disgruntled and is complaining about everything, even things unrelated to work. On your weekly team conference calls, his negative attitude is affecting morale and causing lack of enthusiasm among the team.There is nothing wrong with the quality of James’s work and he meets all the deadlines. He was in charge of one of the company’s latest ad campaigns and was successful in meeting the client’s goals. You have tried to discuss his negative attitude with him but he continues to complain about no one onthe team caring about his contributions even though you have reinforced him several times. Typically, in a face-to-face work arrangement, you would take him to lunch and talk to him about this issue but being in a virtual arrangement forces you choose another option. Task: You have decided to communicate with James Dion to assure him of the importance of his work, quality of his efforts and value he brings to the team. Let him know he plays a critical role in theproject and overall success of the team. However, his attitude needs to change. When youcommunicate with him, you can make up whatever details you need.

Attentional Blink
Attentional Blink
Assignment 2: Attentional Blink
There are many stimuli in your environment of which you are
not aware. You use attention to filter out unimportant stimuli and focus
on relevant stimuli. However, there are circumstances under which you
cannot perceive stimuli, regardless of how hard you "pay attention." One
situation is when visual stimuli are presented in quick succession. If
the interval between the two stimuli is short enough, you do not
perceive the second stimulus. This lapse in attention is known as
attentional blink. In this assignment, you will experience the
attentional blink for yourself and will also read about practical
implications of the phenomenon.
Access the CogLab demonstrationAttentional Blink. Follow the instructions to complete the demonstration.
Read the following article:
Livesey, E. J., Harris, I. M., & Harris, J. A.
(2009). Attentional changes during implicit learning: Signal validity
protects a target stimulus from the attentional blink.Journal of Experimental Psychology: Learning, Memory, and Cognition,35(2), 408-408-422. doi:10.1037/a0014525 (ProQuest Document ID: 614494049) Retrieved from http://search.proquest.com.libproxy.edmc.edu/docview/614494049?accountid=34899 Using the experience from the CogLab
demonstration and information from the article, write a paper that
addresses the following:
Explain how the attentional blink relates to
attention. Analyze how the variation in time influences the
probability of seeing the second target letter. Explain the
circumstances under which the attentional blink can be eliminated.
In the CogLab demonstration, letters were used
as targets. The target used can influence the duration of one’s
attentional blink and whether the attentional blink even occurs.
Complete the following tasks:
Propose at least two other targets that could be used to induce the attentional blink. Predict the effect each of your suggested
targets would have on the duration of one’s attentional blink as
compared to the CogLab activity you completed. Explain the reasoning behind your predictions. Present and discuss at least three occupations
in which workers’ performance could be adversely affected by
attentional blink. Identify and explain the types of problems or
mistakes that might occur in such occupations due to the
attentional blink. Several years ago, some vehicle models came
with a heads-up display (HUD). Instead of looking down at a panel
on the dashboard, speed, distance traveled, fuel level, and time
appeared to be displayed over the hood of the car. Discuss this
design in terms of divided attention and attentional blink. Do you
think the design was a good idea?Write a 4-page paper in Word format. Apply
APA standards to citation of sources. Use the following file naming
convention: LastnameFirstInitial_M2_A2.doc.
By Wednesday, August 7, 2013, deliver your assignment to the M2: Assignment 2 Dropbox.
