Use at least 5 sources for reference. After researching a corporate scandal—that of Volkswagen, Wells Fargo, or whomever else—write a paper that addresses the following questions: According to your research, what did the relevant corporation do—or fail to do? (Cite at least one reputable outside source here.) In your opinion, why was this scandalous? (Apply at least one ethical theory here.)According to your research, how did the corporation respond? (Cite at least one reputable outside source here.) In your opinion, was the corporation right to respond as it did? (Apply at least one ethical theory here.)  Assuming that it is double spaced, your paper should be no fewer than three and no more than five pages long. Seriously, do not go beyond these limits. Part of the point of this assignment is to learn to write a convincing argument—and no argument will be convincing unless it is clear and to the point. Since it will be graded blindly, do not put any identifying information in your paper. Really, it should not have a heading at all—though a title is okay. As you write your paper, remember to put everything in your own words. At no point in your writing process should you be copying and pasting anything from the internet into your paper? The only exceptions would be quotations, which are fine so long as they are clearly indicated with quotation marks and accompanied by citations. On that note, be sure to cite at least one reputable outside source in your paper. (Examples of reputable sources are The New York Times and The Wall Street Journal.) Certainly, your textbook shouldn’t be the only source that you cite! Last—but not least—be sure to apply at least one ethical theory to the relevant scandal. (Examples of ethical theories are virtue ethics and care ethics.) Of course, it wouldn’t hurt to apply several!

 Assignment 4: Keeping the Talent Part I – Slide Deck (Weight: 15%) Due Week 9, Day 7  Part II – Zoom Presentation (Weight: 10%) Due Week 10, Day 7 INTRODUCTION Recruiting and retaining top talent is a key strategic goal for any organization. A strong company brand, effective leadership, and a positive workplace culture are important elements in attracting and retaining top talent. How can HR contribute to building an organization that attracts and retains top talent? ASSIGNMENT 4, PART I INSTRUCTIONS (Slide Deck) Your company has a new CHRO, who has been in the position for 6 months. One of the areas he is tasked to improve is retention of top talent. Employee turnover has been high in recent years and it is negatively affecting the company’s profitability and competitiveness. You are the VP of Talent and the CHRO has asked you to help him prepare a presentation to the Board, outlining a vision for changes to increase retention. The CHRO previously worked for Google and he subscribes to their model of a “high-freedom” company. He wants to use ideas from Bock’s Work Rules, from his book of that name, as the basis for his presentation. As a reminder, the ten Work Rules are 1. Give your work meaning. 2. Trust your people. 3. Hire only people who are better than you. 4. Don’t confuse development with managing performance. 5. Focus on the two tails. 6. Be frugal and generous. 7. Pay unfairly. 8. Nudge. 9. Manage the rising expectations. 10. Enjoy! And then go back to No. 1 and start again. Research the topics in the list above, in relation to your workplace, or a company that interests you. Based on your findings, select the four topics where you believe that change would be most impactful. Develop recommendations for implementing changes in those four areas. Identify how the changes you are proposing will attract and retain top talent. Consider how success will be measured for each topic. Consider the most likely challenges and resistance to the changes you are proposing, and identify ways to manage and mitigate those issues.  For more information on Implementing Changes read this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Implementation

Final Project Create a Learning Solution Your challenge for this course is to design a case-based learning solution for non-learning leaders wanting to understand learning theory.· Intended Audience: any leader who wants to understand the role of learning in their organization and who does not have a background in learning theory or instructional design· Technology Level: the solution needs to have simple low-tech elements to it such that a leader without a computer could complete the course as easily as one with a computer.·  Demonstrates design theory and practice: the solution must not only cover content about learning theory and design but must demonstrate effective application of learning theory and practice.· Outcomes: the desired level of competency for your audience is that they “can justify learning solutions for the development of their people and their business.” You will need to break this down into more precise sub-components. Differences between how each person in class breaks down the outcomes will be part of what gives each person’s solution uniqueness.· Tools: MS Word and PowerPoint will be sufficient for most designs and deliverables but should not be considered to be the only tools that may be used.
