Part I: Describe the characteristics of an unhealthy relationship in the workplace. Just like personal relationships, workplace relationships can be both healthy or unhealthy.

The nature of one's relationships in the workplace can relate to job satisfaction and success in that workplace. Describe three characteristics that would exemplify an unhealthy relationship with coworkers and/or managers.

Part II: It is not uncommon to seek advice on relationships in popular media such as television, magazines, radio talk shows, self-help books/programs, or online videos. Many times information presented in popular media is inaccurate or incomplete. For this assignment, you will focus on analyzing the popular media example you chose for the Media Project Checkpoint earlier this week.

You will compare what is in the media example to what you have learned in class and from the reading, and provide suggestions on how the more scientifically grounded psychological concepts, models, and theories could be added to enhance the original media example you found. Answer the following: What sort of information is included?

Provide a brief overview of the advice given. Compare the advice given based on what you have learned from the reading and course and what was stated in the media. Using what was learned in our course and text, discuss three ways to add to/improve the advice given and make it more credible.

Part III: As we have discussed earlier in the class, it is important to consider diversity within the workplace as it relates to human relations and workplace relationships.

Review the sources below. Answer the following: Is diversity or a diverse workplace considered and/or mentioned within the media example you selected for Part II? Explain.

Why would it be important to consider diversity within the workplace, when examining workplace relationships? [Ensure you incorporate material from the resources provided to support your points. Clearly indicate what resources you are referring to for the reader.]

Using what was learned in our course and the resources provided, what are three things organizations can do to improve awareness and tolerance of diversity in the workplace, address cultural challenges that may affect workplace relationships, or capitalize on the benefits of a diverse workplace. Assessment should be at least 2 pages in length. Support with cited evidence from the reading and/or other sources as needed by including a list of informal citations.

Include an informal list of resources at the end of the assessment for all sources used. APA is not required. Although if you are directly quoting something or someone other than yourself that must be in quotation marks.
