Read the case study below to do the following two questions0 1. Using concepts from this chapter and other HRM chapters, develop an outline for a training program on effective management 2. Discuss some of the ways you can communicate the following topics to the employees: changes to benefits, training opportunities, compensation plans, and succession plans. Management Style, Applied You recently completely overhauled several aspects of employee benefits, including health insurance and compensation packages. You have also developed clear succession plans and career development plans to assist in the retention of your current employees. You are pretty excited about the changes and feel they are better for the employees, while costing your organization less money. These plans came from your development of a strategic plan and goals set last year. You think these plans will result in lower turnover. However, in four recent exit interviews, the former employees mentioned the lack of communication from your department on the changes you made. They said they did not feel well informed and are disappointed they were not notified. In addition, they complained of micromanagement on the part of two particular managers. They said they spend half of their day responding to their managers with project updates, instead of working on the projects themselves. As you begin to think about these exit interviews, you realize that development of the strategic plan and implementing it simply isn’t enough; you must communicate the changes to employees as well. You also have a bit of concern about the management styles mentioned and think it might be a good time to offer training on effective management to your entire company. Using concepts from this chapter and other HRM chapters, develop an outline for a training program on effective management. Discuss some of the ways you can communicate the following topics to the employees: changes to benefits, training opportunities, compensation plans, and succession plans.

Read carefully and complete it properly as requested. Please pay attention to the examples I attached and respond to the questions. Be on time or before please! Your task throughout the duration of this course is to plan an ethics training program for an organization with which you are familiar, or in a hypothetical organization in a desired career field. Each week, you will be assigned chapters to read in the Program Planning textbook and will respond assigned "questions to consider" from the chapters. As we move forward in this course, your responses should not only include what you learned from reading the chapter, but how you are applying what you learned in the development of your educational program. You will also post the various program planning documents in the discussion forum for peer review and feedback. The intent of these weekly discussions is for you to articulate what you learned from the chapter and to engage with each other to help each other better understand the content and how to apply it. This is graduate-level coursework, so your goal is not to simply memorize information, but to explain how you understand the information, how it applies in your given context/field, and how you can apply it now and into the future. Additionally, simple statements of agreement with your classmates are not welcome in the discussion. You should help each other learn, help each other see the differences in how course content might be applied in your given fields, and help each other better understand the complexities of developing training programs related to ethics. Although there are required standards to meet in these discussions, I strongly recommend you approach this work in a more conversational, collaborative, informal manner. Each post, particularly your responses to classmates, does not have to be an essay. Your questions to consider for Chapter 1 are: What is your role as a program planner? If you are studying to be a planner (you are), what kind of planner would you like to be? Using the scenario at the beginning of Chapter 1, how would you change the program the following year?

Last time you helped me write an initial idea for this project, and here are the comments: For this project, I encourage you to identify a more specific problem. What you have written is quite broad and could apply to any large coffee retailer, such as Peet's Coffee or other major brands. Here are some suggestions to refine your focus: Identify a Unique Issue: Look for something that is specific to Starbucks. This could be a recent event or a unique challenge that Starbucks is currently facing. Recent Developments: Consider focusing on recent news or developments related to Starbucks. This will make your analysis more relevant and specific. Specific Problem: Find a particular problem that stands out and use it as the core of your analysis.
