I need a resume and a cover letter.

Select 2-3 of the journal questions 

Make sure your submitted word document has a heading at the top including your name, course number, and date. Your journal entry should be no less than one page (as measured by Microsoft Word, Times New Roman 12 point font.) You are required to keep a copy of this journal entry. 

Topic #1:  LEARNING SYNTHESIS (25 Points)

Create a high level summary of the things that stood out for you over each of the last seven weeks.  Prepare a PowerPoint presentation that shares these highlights with us. You must also narrate that PowerPoint presentation so that you are actually telling and showing us (i.e., teaching us) what you learned.  You may use software other than PowerPoint, provided it has the audio component as well as the visual piece that PowerPoint has. YOU CANNOT, HOWEVER, SAVE YOUR PRESENTATION IN GOOGLE DOCS – THESE FILES ARE UNACCESSIBLE AND WILL NOT BE ACCEPTED.

Here are some resources to help you craft your presentation:

 Discuss the adverse impact of stereotyping in the workplace. Give detailed examples of various HR functions where stereotyping may occur. Examine the consequences of stereotyping as they relate to an employer’s exposure to liability. 

students response

Stereotyping is seen in the workplace daily. An example of this in the workplace would be with performance review and promotional opportunities. The textbook gives a great example of sexual stereotyping, where a man and woman are held to different standards during a performance review. The woman ends up getting a negative performance review based on her “charm” and “un-lady like appearance and personality” (Page 195). She was also passed up for a promotion based on this. Despite the fact that the employer was able to pinpoint additional reasons she was passed up for the promotion, the judge voted in her favor because some of the reasons that she was denied a promotion attributed to her un-lady like appearance/behavior. The consequences of this not only include lawsuits such as this one, but also depriving the company of someone more deserving and qualified. Basing a promotion on someone’s appearance is a disservice to the employee and company as a whole. It also leads to low morale, a lack of confidence in upper management’s decision making, and distrust of the organization.

Another example could be found in an employment situation. A hiring committee could look differently on a pregnant applicant vs. a single professional. The hiring committee could make an assumption that the pregnant applicant would be distracted by her duties as a parent to focus on work and hire the single applicant based on availability and perceived dedication. This could also be a missed opportunity for the company to hire a more qualified candidate. As well, this would be seen as a discriminatory act which could lead to lawsuits based on the final tally and committee remarks.

Based on your What Rewards Do I Value Most? Assessment result, what motivational technique(s) would you use to motivate yourself, and why? Would you use the same technique(s) to motivate your co-worker(s) and/or employee(s)? Why or why not?

Theresa and Mike understand that building the culture they envision requires effective communication, collaboration, and participative problem solving. They envision creating an organization such that Joe and other employees will know exactly what to do when faced with choices that involve ethics. As the first step in embedding clear ethical processes in the organization, they realize they need to devise a code of conduct. Both companies have operated with an unwritten code that was never formalized. The consultant is asked to help them understand the purpose and content of an excellent code of conduct and how they should go about developing it. 

Review the scenario for this course and answer the following questions:

• What is the purpose of a code of conduct?
• Evaluate the code of conduct of Levi Strauss and describe ethical principles it includes.
• In your own work experience, have you seen similar ethical principles used in organizations and, if so, which ones?
