Some strategies you can use, as a health care manager, to overcome human resources challenges are ensuring compliance with laws and regulations are kept, leadership development training, and recruiting talented employees.

Employment laws change regularly. Human Resources Managers are responsible for keeping up with these changes. A Health Care manager must be confident that the Human Resources team is doing their job in order to successfully avoid lawsuits, and pass audits. Regular training can assist with this. There should be scheduled training times so that new information can be pushed out to those who need it. Leadership development training is another strategy that can be utilized in order to overcome challenges. When the leadership team in an organization is strong and knowledgeable, it will show in the rest of the organization. The same goes if there are inept leaders in an organization. Last but not least, hiring talented, reliable and goal oriented employees is very important to an organization. As much influence as a leadership team has on the employees, the employees have on one another. If an employee is not reliable it offsets the team work in the organization. The employee should also be goal oriented so that the underlying mission of the organization is being achieved. 

A future challenge I believe I will have to overcome as a healthcare manager is lack of nurses. Nurses are already in such high demand. Many individuals want to become a nurse but the fail rate of nursing school is very high. So many health care facilities are unstaffed with nurses as it is. More and more healthcare facility are opening but are lacking the staffing or nursing they need. In turn, nurses are being over worked and are getting burned out in their profession.

This week, you learned about the three core pricing strategies: penetration, neutral, and skim. In this interactive activity, you’re going to briefly recap the three pricing strategies, use them to classify the major pizza chains based on exploring the online ordering process, and then answer a few related questions. So let’s dig in!

+Re-familiarize yourself with the three main pricing strategies

+Research pizza prices for 5 different pizza brands

+Create a forum post that includes the following:

   (a) a brief description of the 3 prices strategies, from least to most expensive

   (b) Classification of the five brands into the 3 pricing strategies: Penetration, neutral and skim

   (c) For any of the pricing strategies where you have multiple brands, rank the brands from least to most expensive.

    (d)Include the kind of pizza you priced out, your recorded prizes and any other pertinent notes.

Primary Task Response: Within the Discussion Board area, write 400–600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear and use examples to reinforce your ideas.

Based upon the course readings, supplementary materials, and your own literature search via the CTU online library, provide the following for discussion:

• Review and analyze the practitioner literature of decision making and analysis.
• Review and analyze the academic literature of decision making and analysis.
• Provide at least 2 scholarly resources to support your response. 

Use the LIBRARY or the MGMT Doctoral Library for help.

Explain how you would conduct a job analysis in a company that has never had job descriptions. Utilize the O*Net as a resource for your information.

Your discussion is to be submitted in 12-point Times New Roman font using APA format.  You must have a minimum of two sources to support your answer.

As you have learned, there are many ways to study social and behavioral phenomena.  Some of the methods we use involve quantifying responses (surveys, experiments, archival research), while others involve detailed descriptions based on one on one interviews, direct observation of a group, focus groups, or even case studies.  It is important to remember that qualitative researchers attempt to describe the qualities of a behavior or an experience to capture what the behavior or experience means to the participant.   

Before you participate in this forum, be sure to read all assigned materials.  What are some ways in which a qualitative study of domestic violence would be different than a quantitative study on the same topic? What kinds of research questions are best answered by each method and why?  What kind of data would you generate if you conducted a survey rather than interviewing either abusers or survivors face to face?  Would you generate different data if you explored this issue in focus groups rather than face to face interviews or surveys? Support your analysis by citing examples of qualitative and quantitative studies of domestic violence. 

Initial post: The initial post should be at least 200 words. 

All posts should:

1.  Advance the discussion by adding to it; should not repeat information or state the obvious.

2.  Be more than a list of points–initial posts and replies should offer an analysis of the question.  

3.  Use APA style in-text citations for all sources used in replies; provide a list of complete APA references at the end of the post.  Do not list a reference if you did not use it in the post–APA says to cite what you use; use what you cite.  Posts without citations will receive a zero. 

4.  Run the spell and grammar checker on your text.  Verify that you used neutral, objective language and made no evaluative statements (hint, look for words like wonderful, horrible, awful, etc.)  

What is the relationship between compensation and employee retention?  Do employees stay with organizations based on salary?  Do they leave organizations because of compensation factors? How do benefits impact retention?  Use the articles and resources provided to support your ideas.
