List the strategies you would use to lead the team to success and identify potential obstacles that may be faced, along with plans to deal with them.? Answer: Identification of a health issue in United States: Heart disease is very common and dangerous phenomenon within United States. Majority of people in America are very fat. They suffer from obesity also. This obesity has led to the serious disease like heart diseases, arthritis etc (Urmc.rochester.edu, 2015). In this case, the major focus is on heart disease among American people. Both men and women of America suffer from severe heart disease. Every year, this disease has killed a large number of Americans. Therefore, heart disease and issues regarding this disease are the major areas of interest. Background information: Heart disease is a common disease for the people of all over the world. However, the people of United States suffer most from the heart disease. Obesity is most common phenomenon among the Americans. This obesity has led to the emergence of coronary artery disease among most of the people of America. Obesity as well as being overweight has led to several critical issues like heart diseases among men and women and children within overall regions of United States (Stavans, 2010). The American Heart Association has stated that, heart disease causes strokes and heart attacks. It has killed many people with the combination of different forms of cancer. However, the practices of smoking and eating practice of junk food has led to the obesity and high weight among the people. Therefore, these practices can led to the overweight of the body thus cause for different diseases of heart (Revilla Beltri, 2013). Most of the deaths among Americans can cause by severe heart diseases. However, African Americans are most of the victims of this heart disease. Coronary heart disease has killed over 370,000 people per annum. 735,000 Americanshave heart attack per year. Heart disease is the second most common disease after cancer among different ethnic groups of America. Whites and African Americans are the most victims of this heart disease. Statistical findings: Races of different ethnic groups Percentage of Deaths African Americans 24.5 Whites 25.1 American Indians or Alaska Natives 18.0 Hispanics 20.8 Asians or Pacific Islanders 23.2 All 25.0 Source: www.cdc.gov However, Ai,Weiss Fincham (2014) discussed that, 610,000 American peopledie from diseases of heart within different races of United States. In 2009, mostly men died from the heart disease. Annually 370,000 people died from Coronary heart disease. However, from the surveys of 2010, it has been stated that many people do not know the sign of heart problem. Most of the people know that the only symptoms of heart disease are chest pain. However, there are other minor and major systems those should also be understood by the common people. They do not even know that the obesity is one of the most common factors of heart disease. 47% cardiac deaths have been occurred outside the hospital for low knowledge of people. The people often do not have any idea about the early warning signs. As discussed by Green et al. (2012), major early warning signs are Shortness of breath, discomfort or chest pain, pain in upper parts of the body, nausea, cold sweats. However, the risk factors of heart disease are high rate of LDL cholesterol, smoking as well as high blood pressure and obesity or over weight. Half of the Americans have all risk factors those can lead to the severe heart disease. On the other hand, poor choice of diet, physical inactivity, Excessive use of alcohol have affected upon the health condition of Americans. Probable Stakeholders: The stakeholders are from different groups, those are internal and external stakeholders. In this project of reducing heart disease, the internal stakeholders are project managers, team leaders, team members. On the other hand, the external stakeholders are general people especially from the religion of African American, Hispanics and White Americans. Heart diseases have killed most of the women within America. Ninety percent women have victimized by different risk factors of heart disease. People of young ages are the most victims of heart disease. Designing an implementation plan for project: However, in order to reduce the issues of heart diseases among the Americans large project with effective team and communication should be presented by the project organization. A communication plan: The team should build an effective plan of communication that can be helpful for providing the latest information about awareness of heart disease. Most of the common people do not have the idea of minor and major symptoms (Martin Soldo, 1997). They do not also have the idea that their eating practices and bad habits can help in order to grow different types of diseases of heart. However, this project can include some of the communication methods by utilizing different types of medium; those are as follows: Seminar: The project should include some seminars for communicating some effective information about the causes of heart diseases to the common people. Project should organize different seminars with the help of eminent Doctors and professionals who can deliver important notifications to the people. Workshop: Apart from organizing seminars, some workshops can be organized by the project organization. This workshop will include daylong activities including the causes as well as remedies of heart diseases to the people. This workshop will discuss about the dangerous situations of smoking and bad effect of excessive use of alcohol. Road shows: The project should include some road shows for the people. This road show will include some eminent celebrities who will share some bad experiences about heart diseases. Therefore, they will also demonstrate that obesity is one of the most common causes for heart disease. Advertisement campaign: The project should deliver some print or billboard advertisements those will contain some effective information about the data, statistics of heart diseases among Americans and rest of the world. Leaflets and Posters: These will deliver information about the remedies of heart diseases. These posters will be given to the people for enhancing the good eating and health practices among the society. Designing and implementation of team by individual role: However, with the help of Belbins team role model people with different area of expertise should be projected for different actions of this particular project. People with marketing and public relation knowledge will be involved within the advertisement campaign process. On the other hand, Harley Dillard (2005) argued that, people with creativity always can write posters and leaflets with effective information and creativity. Therefore, creative writers should be given responsibility in order to produce successful posters and leaflets those can be able to attract the people at a glance. Leaflets will be sent to the general people of the area. Popular and crowded place should be selected for delivering leaflets and posters. Apart from these, people from event management background should be involved within the program of organizing seminar, road shows and workshop on particular topic. However, marketing people also should contact some eminent personality on given topic (Koehlmoos, An war Cravioto,2011). Whole project require some times to be completed by the organization. Therefore, they can start with leaflet, posters and different types of advertisements campaign process. After the successful completion of these advertisement techniques, event organization should implement the process of seminars, workshops and effective road shows for the people. Conclusion: With the help of this project, awareness can be distributed among the common people of different regions of America. Heart disease is a very serious issue for the people. However, it should be reduced by extensive knowledge among the people within the American society. Reference list Ai, A., Weiss, S., Fincham, F. (2014).
