You are in charge of the HR team at your organization (or previous organization); the CEO has tasked you with providing a strategical SWOT analysis, from a HR perspective, at the next Board of Directors’ meeting.  Please share your HR perspective SWOT analysis that you will deliver during the strategic planning meeting.

Your need to outline a minimum of three factors within each area of your SWOT analysis.

2. Which of the various reasons for resisting change do you believe to be the most common? What are your “top three” in this regard?

3.Which of the various reasons for resisting change do you believe to be the most difficult to deal with (as a manager)? What are your “top three” in this regard?

4. When senior managers resist change at the strategic level, they are in a position to cause more damage than employees resisting changes at the operational level. Have you worked in a company where you believe that management resistance to change may have existed? As a manager yourself, what would you try to do to prevent this from happening?

5. Which approach to the management of resistance attracts you? What is the reason for your choice? For example, is it because you think it to be the most effective or does it also relate to a view that you have about how people should be managed?

Directions

Post a question based on an article, book, video, podcast, or any other current (less than 4 years old) material relevant to the current unit’s key topic. You are encouraged to use the Park course library to find an article.  The article must support a business case for HR management. Each student must post a question based on their article no later than Tuesday of each week in order to receive full discussion points. If you miss the Tuesday deadline ten percent will be deducted from the final discussion grade for the week. The Tuesday deadline enhances the discussion area and provides others with an opportunity to comment on your posts. 

Each student must also respond (reply) to at least two other student’s posted questions, a student’s response to a question, or to instructor input.  Two peer responses are due each week.

All initial questions input must be accompanied by a summary of the selected article. There is no length requirement for the question. However, the question must be comprehensive (a summary analysis of the key article points followed by a question that cannot be answered with a simple yes or no response. The peer responses are required to be comprehensive and clearly state your reason for agreeing or disagreeing with the post in a professional manner. Peer responses are not just short responses like: “I agree.”  Peer responses must include data or other information that makes an HR business case for the response (with at least one source for support).

After reading Ch. 10, review Exhibit 10.8 and scan the predictors listed in the left column.  This exhibit shows an example of substantive assessment methods, which could be used for internal selection.   Each of these methods is discussed, starting on p. 540.  Be sure to respond to both parts of this week’s discussion.                                                 

Please respond to the following:
