Scenario:

The final section of the PowerPoint will provide an overview of the employee life cycle and employee experience by explaining why Human Resources should understand how the stages of the life cycle influence one another. Finally, provide an example, with a rationale from the course materials and/or Shapiro Library resources, of how at least two stages interact or influence one another.
