In Chapter 1 of the Handbook of Workplace Assessment, author Kevin Murphy (2010) describes two primary approaches for workplace assessment-assessing work-oriented strategies (what people do to carry out their assigned roles and responsibilities) and analyzing people-oriented factors (the characteristics of people that influence how they perform in the workplace). For each approach, describe the domains that might be assessed and what implications may be drawn by assessing each domain. Based on your understanding of the use of assessment in succession planning (as described in Chapter 15 by Paese, 2010), how might each of these approaches be used in succession planning? Explain your answer, referencing course readings and other academic sources. Should be at least 300 words and the reference for usage is below.
The response must include a reference list. Using one-inch margins, double-space, Times New Roman 12 pnt font and APA style of writing and citations.
