Human Resources Management

We have learned that leadership is not limited to businesses. Parents, relatives, students, friends, neighbors, and volunteers represent a small example of those who lead. You may find that there is a person, or group, that looks to you for direction, or as a role model. This makes you a leader. On the other hand, you may be actively pursuing a position of leadership within your workplace. Either way, with your viewpoint, take the Self-Assessment in the Casse (2014) New drivers of leadership reading (see attached document for reading.) Present your results in the homework this week, along with the following: · Describe how you understand yourself through the strongest drivers and weakest drivers (highest and lowest scores) · Think of one challenge, past or present (personally or professionally), and diagnose your ability to resolve the challenge through the drivers. 300-450 word excluding references, APA format, and a minimum of 3 references For more information on Leadership read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leadership

HRM topic: Training and Development In this course, we look at a variety of different human resource theories and styles. We also look at the different kinds of perspectives on ethical issues and how they fit into HRM. You are required to write a paper on an HRM topic. You will choose the topic you are most interested in. Choose a topic, and expand on it.  Of necessity, the instructions for this assignment are somewhat vague. Each student will have to explore different resources and will need to develop an individual approach to the subject.  Identify, specifically, the strengths of your topic and what some weaknesses are. Drawing on various sources, explain the details of your topic. Assume I know nothing about this topic and share your research on it with me. Why is it important? What have you learned? What are the Pros and Con’s? When would this be used? What is the history on this topic? Requirement: Using the terms, concepts, and theories learned in this course, write a 5 to 7 page (Arial or Times New Roman 12 pitch font with double-spaced lines) essay focusing on one specific Human Resource topic that we have studied over the past 7 weeks. You must also include a title page and reference page. The 5-7 pages do not include the title page/reference page. Be sure to incorporate at least two (2) sources to support your essay. Use APA Style in your writing and review the rubric for guidance.  For more information on Training and Development read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Training_and_development

 Week 4 Making the DecisionAssignment   From the due date assigned through the end of the week, complete the following: Work with your teammates on the Year 16 decision. After deciding on the final choices, upload your decisions to the simulation website. Note: Scores will be given based on the following criteria: The simulation awards 25 points each week. It is based on the yearly score given to your company on the BSG-Online website—not the cumulative score, but the yearly score. The team with the highest score will receive 25 points. The team with the second-highest score will receive 23 points. The team with the third-highest score will receive 21 points. The team with the fourth-highest score will receive 19 points. As pointed out in other announcements, this is a simulation. Like a pilot, you need to practice making decisions. You can practice even after the decisions for the week are saved. You do not have to save your work in a practice session, but you can print out the results and data for your own use or to discuss the results with your co-managers. Important: The average student who does well in this course spends approximately four hours per week practicing decision making on the BSG-Online website. If you do not access the weekly reports or do not spend at least one hour per week practicing, it is assumed that you are not prepared enough to support your team to make the weekly decisions.” For more information on Decision Making read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Decision-making
