GB580: Strategic Management Unit 1 And 2

Unit One and Two Individual Assignment

Unit 1 Assignment

One key element of a successful strategic plan is its ability to prepare the organization to weather and, indeed, capitalize on the changes in the external environment in which the organization exists.

Individuals face an equally challenging and rapidly changing environment that they must plan for. The following excerpt from Friedman and Mandelbaum (2011) expresses these new challenges.

Broadly speaking, today‟s job market can be divided into three segments,

which are steadily collapsing into two. The first includes what are known as nonroutine high-skilled jobs…

In the second category are routine middle-skilled jobs, involving a lot of standardized repetitive tasks, of either the white-collar or blue-collar variety…

The third segment of the job market involves workers doing nonroutine low-

skilled jobs that have to be done in person or manually—in an office, a hospital, a shopping center or restaurant, or at a specific construction site, factory, or locale….

Putting all three categories together makes clear why the experts speak of job market “polarization.” Nonroutine high-skilled work becomes, if anything, more lucrative, depending on the overall economy. Nonroutine low-skilled work can pay decently, depending on the local economy and how well that worker performs. But white- and blue-collar routine work shrinks, gets squeezed on pay, or just vanishes. The net result of the “rising demand for highly educated workers performing abstract tasks and for less-educated workers performing „manual‟ or service tasks is the partial hollowing out or polarization of employment opportunities,” conclude Katz and Autor. (pp. 75-78)

UNIT 1 detailed information

In this step, refer to your readings in the two course texts and your chosen three

additional scholarly resources as you formulate your personal mission statement. A

mission differs from a vision in that the vision if broader and more life-defining than the

mission. The mission can change from time to time, but the vision generally changes

very little.

In this step, using the course reading and your chosen scholarly sources, formulate your

personal vision. One easy way to think of this is to imagine your overarching career

objective.

In this step, you review the environment in which you will be operating. You evaluate the

Political, Economic, Social and Technological (PEST) factors relevant to your future

personal success. For example, what technological changes will impact how you earn

your living? Will you need to work remotely at a number of jobs at the same time, is

there a chance that your current work can be outsourced using technology? Can you

use technology to appeal to a broader group of potential employers in a wider

geographic area? Similarly, what economic changes are likely to impact you? Will

demand for what you do increase or decrease as a result of changes in the economy?

Support your assessment of the particular environmental elements with research-backed references. See DocSharing for a PEST template.

Prepare your personal SWOT analysis (Your personal Strengths and Weaknesses and the external macroeconomic Opportunities and Threats that all of your competitors will assess.) See DocSharing for a SWOT template.

Refer to the QuickMBA site for additional information regarding the PEST and SWOT Frameworks.

Your completed PEST and SWOT templates must be included in your paper‟s Appendix.

UNIT 2 detailed information

In this step, you formulate your personalized broad strategy, using the concepts in the course texts. Your strategy should focus on your personal Strategy Canvas that separates you from your competitors (people you believe will be competing for the same job.) Think of how you will create value by making it more advantageous to employ or contract with you. Ideally, you provide more value than just being inexpensive. Refer to Figure 1-3, p. 18 in Blue Ocean Strategy for guidance on how to create your own personal Blue Ocean Strategy. See DocSharing for the Strategy Canvas template.

In developing your personal Four Actions Framework, think about what things you are doing now that can be lessened in some way (Reduced); new capabilities you want to develop (Create); your capabilities that need no further development effort (Eliminate); and your capabilities that need improvement (Raise). See DocSharing for the Four Actions Framework template.

With your personal Strategy Canvas and Four Actions Framework in hand, identify specific objectives you will need to accomplish in order to implement your strategy. Your completed Strategy Canvas and Four Actions Framework templates must be included in your paper‟s Appendix.

BPM

DUE: 10.21.14 @12:00PM

 

You will select the process you will use in this Assignment. You will prepare the

foundation for your project by identifying a real-world organization that would

benefit from applying the business process management (BPM) model in the

workplace. You may select the organization where you currently work OR where

you previously worked. If possible, you should strive to choose an organization and

process that you have knowledge about. If you select an organization that you do

not have direct contact with, be sure you can gather sufficient information (via a

library, the Internet, or by interview) about the organization and its operations.

 

It is important to select a process that will provide a good basis for applying the

various phases that you will be learning. To get a better understanding of what is

coming up, it is recommended that you carefully read the two and a half page

summary of the 10 phases that starts on page 106 and ends on page 109(See attachments below). This may give you an idea of what type of questions you will be asking about the process you select. If you have any issues trying to open the attachments, Please, let me know ASAP.

 

For this Assignment, write a paper that includes the following components (use the

subheadings below):

 

Organization

 

Identify and provide details regarding the organization for which you will be

presenting information about the BPM model. Include the company name, location,

size, and primary business area (What does the business do?). Also, describe

what connection you have to the organization, if any. If not, explain how you will

gather information about their operations.

 

Process 

 

Describe the business process that you have selected, as you did in the

discussion. Clearly state:

1. The objective of the process.

2. The scope (Where the process begins and ends).

3. A brief description of those involved.

 

In order to ensure the process you select is rich enough to support this project;

your answer to the items in the following checklist must be “yes.” Briefly explain

each item:

 

● Significance: Does this process have some strategic significance or a

significant impact on the operations of the organization?

● Scope: Does this process have various stakeholders, in addition to multiple

people involved in its execution?

● Clarity: Is it possible to identify and list the steps in this process, from

beginning to end?

● Outcomes: Are there specific goals and deliverables associated with this

process that can be listed and measured?

 

Justification

 

1) Why should the company undertake a BPM project on this process (what

are some triggers)?

2) How can this business or organization benefit the BPM model?

Grading note: In the grading rubric there is a section on analysis and

critical thinking. The points in this section will partly be based on your ability to

apply the concepts discussed in your Assignment to the specific circumstances

and details of the process/organization you selected. Writing in general terms,

without applying the concepts and analyzing your specific project, may get me

points in the content section, but will lose points in the analysis section.

Organizational Management

 

As the global marketplace becomes increasingly more competitive, it is incumbent upon human resources to broaden its strategic mission and become a strategic partner with executive staff. This requires human resources to have a detailed understanding of not only the human resources field, but the strengths and challenges of its organization, and the complexities of its industry. Through these units of knowledge, human resources can maximize its value by providing competent advice and counsel to its organization as it strives to achieve its strategic objectives.

 

The comprehensive Final Paper comprises four parts, an executive summary.  This final paper should be eight  pages

Focus of the Final Paper

In your final project, you are to choose a major problem/issue affecting an organization of your choice, and then utilize your detailed knowledge of human resources and strategic planning to develop a comprehensive plan that minimizes, and hopefully eliminates, this threat to your chosen organization’s ability to meet its long-range organizational goals and objectives.  The components of this comprehensive project are as follows:

Part 1 –

2 PAGES

a. Provide an overview of your chosen organization and the problem/issue that challenges that organization.
b. Detail how the problem/issue affects (or can affect) the future viability of the organization.
c. Finally, discuss the principle role of human resources in an organization and how human resources can provide critical advice and counsel to the organization in addressing this challenge

 

Part 2 –

2 PAGES

Optimal solutions are determined when a researcher has a thorough understanding of a company and its industry, along with the strengths and weaknesses that impact its future viability.  In the second part of your plan, perform a SWOT Analysis (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunity, and Threats) on your chosen organization and provide an analysis of these results in light of the problem or issue under study. Be attentive to identifying how the problem or issue impacts the organization and its competitive position within the industry.

 

Part 3 –

1 PAGE

Nearly every problem or issue confronting an organization has a financial or budgetary impact. For instance, staff turnover has not only a direct cost on recruitment expenses, training costs, and productivity, but also an indirect cost related to the loss of organizational learning. In Part 3, detail the financial implications to the organization related to your problem or issue, including the additional costs that may arise if the problem or issue is not resolved effectively.

 

Part 4 –

2 PAGES

Recommendations: The final part of your comprehensive project incorporates your recommendations.  Based on your work in Parts 1, 2, and 3, provide 2-3 recommendations to organizational leadership that would resolve the problem/issue in question. Be sure to detail any challenges the organization should consider in implementing your recommendations (culture, motivation, etc.) and your strategy to overcome these challenges.

 

The Final Paper  will comprise Parts 1, 2, 3 and 4.  It should begin with an Executive Summary and a concusion (SHOULD EQUAL 1 PAGE FOR SUMMARY AND CONCLUSION), which is an abbreviated capture of the entire paper and as such should touch upon all major points while engaging the reader.
