Discussion 1: "Change Management"
• As a manager, how would you deal with resistance to change when you suspect that employees' fears of job loss are well-founded?
• Give an example of what you might do or have done as a manager to improve the situation and why.
Discussion 2: "Talent Management"
One HR manager recently got a thank-you note on her iPhone that said:
"Thx 4 the Iview!"
The manager liked the candidate in the interview, but after getting this text message, she put him in the reject pile.
• Why do you think she rejected the candidate?
• Was that fair?
• Should "textspeak" be considered acceptable workplace communication?
The response should include a reference list. Double-space, using Times New Roman 12 pnt font, one-inch margins, and APA style of writing and citations.
