The origin of labor unions as an organized enterprise fighting for worker’s rights has been somewhat turbulent from colonial times. The seemingly genuine and rational concept of advocating for safer working conditions and better remuneration was not enough to unite a working-class with not prevailing ideology of solidarity at the time (Reynolds, 1984). However, with the changing of the economic landscape and labor markets in the 1930s, a series of significant labor legislation favoring unionists provided the ideal framework for the union’s resurgence and growth, now with government endorsement (Sloane & Witney, 2010, p. 64). While Some may argue that the Teamsters’ connection to corruption and bad actors is the main reason for their existence, Teamsters’ success came from its “inventiveness” and energy (Orenic, 2018, p. 49). For over a century, this union has found ways to adapt to the ever-changing labor force. It could be argued upon that Teamsters addition of women and African-American workforce members, propelled them into the national stage (Orenic, 2018, p. 49). For over a century, Teamsters have survived as a labor union with mostly blue-collar workers and continued leadership. 

 Identify and define your personal philosophy of leadership.You must cite your sources and provide references. The most common place this would be is in Personal Philosophy of Leadership Essay. So, if in your essay or anywhere in your assignment) you write that you identify with “Democratic Leadership because…..” then go on to define it, you will need an in-text citation and a reference page. Another example is if you write, “Democratic Leadership  is one of the most effective leadership styles because it allows lower-level employees to exercise authority they’ll need to use wisely in future positions they might hold. It also resembles how decisions can be made in company board meetings.” You will need an in-text citation and reference page.

Discussion Question 5-2 (50 points)

The Johnston Manufacturing Company, home-based in Atlanta, Georgia, has just opened a new division in Birmingham, Alabama. They have completed their recruitment and are now ready to assess their chosen candidates. First, they must review their current assessment methods to determine if they are up-to-date. Some HR employees are wondering why go to all the trouble of sometimes costly and time-consuming assessments when there are no guarantees they will result in a successful hire. The HR Director will need a cogent response to this potential objection. Then, they need to decide whether they will use structured or unstructured interviews and to what extent they will research applicants’ backgrounds. Answer the following questions related to their assessment of candidates:

1. When should employers reassess the assessment methods they use in hiring?

2. Discuss the advantages and disadvantages of both structured and unstructured interviews. Which would you prefer to use? Why?

3. Why go to all the trouble of sometimes costly and time-consuming assessments when there are no guarantees they will result in a successful hire?

4. Do you think that it is appropriate for employers to research applicants’ backgrounds? What about credit histories? Substantiate your answer.
