Supporting Lectures:

Review the following lectures:

• Needs Assessment
• What Is Good Training?

Introduction:

You are a seasoned and top industry training consultant for many industries. You have received an invitation from a very large North American freight transportation company that has over 32,500 miles of routes in twenty-eight states and three Canadian provinces. The railroad company hauls agricultural, consumer, and industrial products and coal with twenty-five intermodal facilities and has access to forty ports. The company owns and operates approximately 8,000 locomotives and employs over 41,000 people. The corporation acknowledges that the highest quality safety is an inviolate objective. The corporation wants well-trained employees who share its vision for an injury- and accident-free workplace and who are willing to care for and protect one another. At the present time, and thanks to the employees’ commitment, a carefully maintained network, equipment, and well-prepared communities, the organization is a safety leader in the rail industry. It wants to establish a new process named “Approaching Others About Safety” (AOAS). This will be a training program for all railway employees. One of the goals of the program is for its employees to be confident about giving feedback to each other about safe behavior and avoiding unsafe, hazardous, and risky situations.

Therefore, all the employees need to learn the value of providing feedback when they see unsafe, dangerous, or perilous behaviors and situations. This comprehends “positively” recognizing and diagnosing when someone is working safe and sound . . . or correcting his or her actions when an employee perceives that another employee is at risk. The organization’s preliminary thought is that training should concentrate on the types of exposure that tend to result in most injuries. This may include walking and the path of travel around trains, rails, and equipment. Also, pinch points between railway cars and climbing or descending locomotives and railway cars must be included.

Tasks:

• Explain your understanding of the learning process in general terms.
• Analyze the different types of instructional characteristics that this program should have for learning and transfer to result in a process that decreases injuries, accidents, and lost workforce hours.
• Analyze whether the characteristics would vary depending on who was attending the learning program, for example, managers; train crew; maintenance employees who service track, engines, rolling stock, and signals; staff, etc.
• Summarize how the learning process can affect an organization.

To support your work, use your course and textbook readings and also use the South University Online Library. As in all assignments, cite your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA format.

Submission Details:

• Create a 2–3-page Microsoft Word document.
• Name your file as SU_HRM5060_W2_Project_LastName_FirstName.

Assignment   2 (15%): Process Mapping of a Quality Improvement Initiative

Process   Mapping:   Students are required to research an existing health care organization of   their choice. In your research you should identify a quality improvement (QI)   initiative that will improve the way patient care is delivered at the   facility. The QI can be the result of organizational need, accreditation   standards, and/or regulatory requirements. 

Instructions:   Clearly state the specific QI objective. Provide a brief description   articulating why the QI is important and how the quality of patient care will   be improved as a result of the QI. In addition, identify an executive, team   lead, and staff member as the stakeholders who are responsible for the   implementation of the QI and explain what roles they play in the implementation of   the objective.   It will be necessary to generate a flow chart that specifically emphasizes   the steps necessary for implementing the QI as well as the position that is   most appropriate for performing the tasks and exact duties of the step. 

Formatting:   

· Title Page

· 1 page (double spaced) Page should   include QI objective and description. 

· 1 page Page should include the flow   chart illustrating the required steps necessary to implement the QI. 

· Reference Page (2 references minimum)

· Written document should conform to American   Psychological Association (APA) 6th Edition

By now, you should be aware that the findings from a research study are only part of the story. As a consumer, hoping to inform practice by use of an evidence base, you want to know much more. A sound research study includes all the steps highlighted in previous weeks: reviewing existing literature, focusing a research question, choosing a qualitative or quantitative method for answering the question, designing the study including selection of data collection procedures and/or measures, procedures used, data analysis plan, and findings. In addition, the study commonly discusses how ethical concerns were addressed and acknowledges the limitations of the study. For this assignment, you review a published research study with two purposes in mind:

• Observing the structure and content of the article
• Comparing the content of the article to the recommended content of sections for a research study.

Submit a 7-10 page critique and review of the article, which includes the title page and the reference list. Follow the guidelines below:

1. Use the quantitative or qualitative research article that you located and that your instructor approved as part of the Week 5 assignment.
2. Provide an APA reference for the article you select.
3. If you selected a quantitative research study, use the “Quantitative Article Review and Critique. If you selected a qualitative study, use the “Qualitative Article Review and Critique.” Respond to all the questions.

Be sure to include the questions in your critique. This will cause your SafeAssign report to show high similarity to other students’ papers. However, do not be concerned about that. Do, however, appropriately paraphrase and cite specific details from the article you review.

How do you manage human resources in a global technological environment? How can an organization be strategic with their most important resource-their people? Explain your answer. You must use at least two scholarly sources to support your discussion. 

Please read instructions carefully this is a 2 part assignment. Thanks

This assignment emphasizes the information in Chapter 4 of your textbook but also draws on elements from Chapters 5 & 6 and comes in two parts.  As the owner of a small local ice cream manufacturing facility, you are convinced that your brand has something special that could make it into a national brand if you can figure out how to do it. 

Part I.  After reading the chapters in your textbook, your first task to to read the attached document on Strategic Planning that your instructors developed as supplemental material for this assignment.  It will both clarify and emphasize materials that will help with the second part of this assignment.

Part II.  Your task  is to develop a vision statement, a mission statement, and to describe a workable strategic plan for your company today with goals and milestones along the way for the next 10 years when your local brand will be a national brand.  Finally, students are to describe the relationship between their strategic, tactical and operational planning as their company is today.
