   Assignment 2: Position Paper Two – Media and Society

   
  This is the second of two (2) position papers based on the following scenario to be completed in this course.
  Again,  imagine that you are running for a state office (e.g., governor,  senator, or Congressional representative) and you have to prepare a  position paper for a debate on controversial issues in the news. [Select  one (1) of the topics addressed in Weeks 5-9 of this class.]  Remember  that you are addressing a significant segment of your state’s  population and you want to be elected to public office, so your topic  will have to have a broad appeal, such as public trust and the media,  the loss of privacy, safeguarding the First Amendment, online  harassment, and the dangers of privatizing public information, among  other topics from those chapters.
   
  You  will want your position paper to demonstrate critical thinking, sound  logic, valid claims, personal passion, and credible support that is  cited correctly because the paper will be provided to the news media  before the debate and will be scrutinized by the media and reported on  regarding these criteria. 
   
  Write a two to three (2-3) page (500 to 750 words) paper in which you:
   

1. Introduce  your position using a thesis statement in the first paragraph,  including a quote, question, or statistic from your reliable sources and  an overview of the main points you will cover. (It’s important to grab  the audience’s interest and inform the audience of what the main and  support points are.) 
2. Provide two or three (2-3) major points to support your thesis statement. (Put each major point in a separate paragraph.)
3. Provide one (1) paragraph in which you identify and answer an expected argument against your view. 
4. Organize arguments and support your claims effectively. 
5. Demonstrate  personal passion for your position and critical thinking with  persuasive language, sound logic, valid claims, and credible support for  the claims. 
6. Use  the Strayer University Library at https://research.strayer.edu to  locate and provide two to three (2-3) credible and reliable sources (in  addition to the textbook) about current events, which have been  published in the last five (5) years and are cited correctly in the  position paper. (Wikipedia, dictionaries, and encyclopedias are unacceptable and will not count toward your number of credible sources.)
7. Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:
   Be  typed, double-spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with  one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references..Include  a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s  name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover  page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment  page length.The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

Option #2: Managing Human Capital

One of the defining responsibilities of a human resource professional is to effectively manage human capital. There are many strategies and tactics that can be employed, including certain recruitment and selection techniques, compensation incentives, and training and development. In whatever strategies and tactics are taken, the intention is to assist senior management in creating and sustaining a well-structured and well-managed operation. The most important measure of organizational effectiveness for a business is usually expressed in terms of how well its net profitability compares with its target profitability. Additional measures associated with organizational effectiveness can include, but are not limited to, an organization’s growth data and customer satisfaction survey results.

With that background, write a paper that addresses the following:

• Assess the term “human capital” and its relevance for an organization.
• Discuss the role and function of human resources in relation to human capital.
• Present four strategies that a human resource professional would propose to an organization to more effectively manage their human capital, including how a human resource professional would be an integral component of that plan.

Selecting Metrics for a Home Renovation Project

Since metrics keep stakeholders in tune to the health of a project, metrics must be a clear and truthful representation of project status. Consider this scenario.

You are the project manager of a company that does home remodeling and you have just been given a major remodeling project which will update the electrical and heat and air systems, kitchen, and the single bathroom of a house built in 1930. Your project also adds another bedroom with a master suite. The client has authorized a budget of $95,000 and wants the house ready for Thanksgiving, which is six months away.

Your general contractor (GC) has called you in to discuss the project and asks you to put together a set of metrics that will communicate the project status to her, to the homeowners, the building trade groups, and any other stakeholders. Your GC has asked to meet again in three days with your recommendation which you must be able to defend.

Prepare your metrics of project health and be ready to defend the following:

• how many metrics you will use and why that is the “right” number,
• what the metrics are that you have chosen and why,
• explain that you will use both quantitative and qualitative metrics what they are and why,
• explain how and when you’ll get the data,
• what metrics will allow you to find mistakes early enough in the project for correction, and,
• explain which metrics will improve client satisfaction.

Remember that metrics must have a purpose, have a baseline and target, a way to measure, a way to appropriately interpret them and a reporting structure. Be ready to defend your choices relative to those things too. You will present your ideas in a formal paper for the purposes of this class.

Paper Requirements:

• Be sure to properly organize your writing and include an introductory paragraph, headings/subheadings for the body of your work, discussion recommendations, and a conclusion.
• Format your entire paper in accordance with the CSU-Global Guide to Writing and APA (Links to an external site.).
• Your paper should be at least five pages. The page count does not include the required title page and reference page, nor does the page count include any supplemental pages, should you use them, such as appendices.

Activity: Use the Internet to research and identify 10 ads that have used subliminal messages, prepare a report about these ads. Is it very easy for consumers to identify these hidden messages? What effect do they have if any? If not, why do you think advertisers use them?

The assignment is to answer the question provided above in essay form. This is to be in narrative form and should be as thorough as possible. Bullet points should not to be used. The paper should be at least 1.5 – 2 pages in length, Times New Roman 12-pt font, double-spaced, 1 inch margins and utilizing at least one outside scholarly or professional source related to marketing management. The textbook should also be utilized. Do not insert excess line spacing. APA formatting and citation should be used.
