BUSI530 Week 3 Discussion 4

  

As noted in the text, the concept of affirmative action originated with President Lyndon Johnson’s issuance of Executive Order 11246 in 1964, the same year the landmark Civil Rights Act was enacted. While affirmative action has been upheld by courts in a number of cases, it has also been criticized and overturned in a number of decisions. 

  • What are the differences between a judicial (i.e.      court-ordered) affirmative action plan and a voluntary affirmative action      plan?

Human Resource Business Partner (HRBP) Development

 Your previous contributions addressing a variety of important topics outlined in all previous assignments for this course are deemed essential in supporting the business’ overall organizational structure and competitive advantage strategy. It is now time to consider developing your own HR department team to ensure they have the requisite skills and competencies necessary to perform at high levels over time. Effective and motivated HR business partners (HRBP) will be the key to translating HR and business strategy into action. 

The Society for Human Resource Management (SHRM) Body of Competency and Knowledge (BoCK) can be an invaluable resource to help develop and certify HR professionals. You must now explain to the management team the components of this model and how it can be leveraged to achieve operational success for the HR department. A 1-hour meeting has been scheduled and the CEO will be in attendance. 

Create a 20-slide minimum PowerPoint presentation with your script/discussion/commentary in the Notes section of each slide in which you: 

  1. Include cover, presentation agenda, conclusion, and reference list slides, all of which may count toward total slide count. 
  2. Provide a slide with an overview on the importance of having a highly-developed staff of HR business partners at JCPenney.  Be clear with your position. HINT: http://www.scottmadden.com/wp-content/uploads/userFiles/misc/8d0d88c7547b6e2b8f6f6fcba6a9d6b3.pdf 
  3. Provide 1-4 slides introducing the SHRM BoCK model and its components. Be sure to highlight each of the areas of the model. NOTE: It is highly recommended to insert an image the actual SHRM BoCK model into the presentation. 
  4. Include in the remaining slides the following required presentation information: 
    • Provide a minimum of three (3) to four (4) bullet points (more if needed) of information or discussion describing specifics on the SHRM-BoCK’s “Behavioral Competencies” 
    • Provide a minimum of three (3) to four (4) bullet points (more if needed) of information or discussion describing specifics on the SHRM-BoCK’s “HR Expertise; Domains 1 & 2” 
    • Provide a minimum of three (3) to four (4) bullet points (more if needed) of information or discussion describing specifics on the SHRM-BoCK’s “HR Expertise: Domains 3 & 4” 
    • Provide a minimum of three (3) to four (4) bullet points (more if needed) of information or discussion describing specifics on certifying your HRBP’s. 
    • Reminder – good PowerPoints have very few words on the slides themselves—almost all of the information you need to include should be in the Notes.  
  5. Use at least four (4) quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: You may only use the resources listed and SHRM.
