A written assignment will be due each week.
Week 6: Implement global change management initiatives that support knowledge exchange and innovation. (Possible topics include: knowledge sharing initiatives, organizational agility, building collective commitment, stages of innovation, and expert councils).
The written assignment essentially addresses three areas: identification of pertinent issues that HR management must address, an analysis and evaluation of the literature supporting the issues, and a proposed course of action and set of recommendations to address the issues identified.
Problem Identification
In this section, you provide a sharply focused diagnosis of the issues and key challenges related to the topic of human resources management. Begin each paper with a problem statement, an overview identifying the key issues that confront HR managers related to this topic.
Analysis and Evaluation
Examine the primary factors underlying an organization's strategic successes and failures and how HR can support, prevent or overcome the challenges. Decide what resource and competencies a firm may need to overcome the challenge and make it strengths. In this section, you must offer analysis with evidence from the literature with references and supporting statement to present the information clearly, and use the language for HR strategic concepts and analytical tools that are discussed in the textbook.
Recommendations
The recommendations and plan of action should address all of the problems/issues you identified and analyzed. State how the recommendations will solve the problems you identified. Provide new and authentic recommendations, not a re-statement of material in the assignment.
