Posted on | by

 

1. An individual PowerPoint presentation with notes on each slide.
You are part of a global consulting company that has offices in USA, Brazil and China. The head office is in London and the predominant organisational culture stems from there.
Explore and discuss how the national and organisational culture from the head office location affects how business is conducted when encountering the regional cultures that are present in each of its locations.
Use the group dynamics to explore the four countries and draw upon the external resources made available during the module and your own extended reading.
2. Write up your own reflection based on the task 1 PowerPoint presentation, as to the key effects of regional cultural issues on the corporate organisational culture of this multinational company as it conducts its business internationally.

 

 

 

 

High Performance Individuals and Teams

1. Create your own blog to produce a concise summary to answer the following:
How may high performance people be developed by effective performance management? using examples from your workplace or previous experience.
2. Produce an illustrated report that evaluates how high-performance strategies enable you to reflect on how you may work effectively as part of a team.
To achieve this, consider how strategies intended to develop high performance may enable you to meet your personal development needs when working with individuals (individual differences, perceptions and attitudes, learning, development and motivation communication skills) and, in doing so, help create high performing teams.

Career Development and Lifelong Learning

Posted on | by

 

1. Create your own individual PDP that shows evidence of your development achieved in the past 12 months and applies your planned development for the next 12 months.
To achieve this, you must demonstrate how you manage yourself. This should include how you manage stress, positive thinking and assertiveness to produce your own career development plans. You should create plans for goal setting, a personal skills audit and a personal SWOT. From this, you can then create your PDP.
Within your PDP include examples and evidence that demonstrate advanced learning methods, learning resources, learning timescales, expected outcomes and any necessary communications that may support your learning and development.
2. Produce an illustrated report that assesses how strategies for skills development and lifelong learning may enable career development for you and your team colleagues.
To achieve this, evaluate concepts associated with career development strategies in order to consider how the skills and career development of employees through integrated personal development planning may support employee motivation and, ultimately, employee retention and progression.

  3. Develop the training objective for this program based on an analysis of the business.

Business Research For Decision Making

Posted on | by admin3

 

 

Post an original and thoughtful Main Post to the DB prompt.
Respond to at least 2 other posts from learners and/or the instructor (Response Posts).
The first contribution (Main Post or Response Post) must be posted before midnight (Central time) on Friday of each week.
Two additional responses are required after Friday of each week.
For DB assignment prompts with a Part One and Part Two, Part One should be addressed in the first week of the unit with a Main Post and minimum of 2 Response Posts, and Part Two should be addressed in the second week of the unit with a Main Post and a minimum of 2 Response Posts.
More on DBs

At the end of each unit, DB participation is assessed based on level of engagement and the quality of the contribution to the discussion. DBs allow learners to learn through sharing ideas and experiences as they relate to course content. Because it is not possible to engage in two-way dialogue after a conversation has ended, no posts to the DB are accepted after the end of the unit. Learners must demonstrate an appropriate depth of understanding of course content to receive credit for having submitted substantive posts. Typically, this is achieved with 3–4 strong paragraphs for Main Posts and 2–3 strong paragraphs for Response Posts.

This DB has three parts:

Writing a mission statement requires focus and should inspire not only the employees within an organization but the customers, suppliers and community as a whole. What are the nine basic components of a mission statement? Why is it important to include as many of these components as possible in a company’s mission statement?
There are many analytical tools and techniques available for companies to gauge not only where they stand within the industry but to also assess their sustainability and competitive advantage within the marketplace. Why do you believe it is an important step within a strategic planning process to conduct a SWOT analysis? How can a VRIO help an organization?
Describe a situation when a TOWS matrix framework would be appropriate.
