Navigate to the threaded discussion and respond to the following using the same headings as below in your post:
Orientation Program: "A well-thought-out orientation program is essential for all new employees, whether they have experience or not." Explain why you agree or disagree with this statement.
Job Instruction Training Sheet: You are to complete a job instruction training sheet. Pick out some task with which you are familiar - on your job preferably (other suggestions include studying for a quiz or a work activity occurring at home).
This may be done in a table format or it may be done showing step-by-step graphical instructions. Be sure to include both the step-by-step instructions and any associated key points attributed to each instruction step (the what and the why/how). See the example table shown on page 244.
Management Development: Describe the pros and cons of five management development techniques. What has been your experience with any one or more of these management development techniques?
HR Professor Techniques:
Develop one (1) specific example for each of four (4) different techniques described in this chapter to illustrate how a professor teaching HRM (human resource management) could use the techniques when teaching his or her HR course (e.g., simulation, lecture). Global Training Programs: One reason for implementing global training programs is the need to avoid business losses "due to cultural insensitivity." What sort of cultural insensitivity do you think is referred to, and how might that translate into lost business? What sort of training program would you recommend to avoid such cultural insensitivity?
