Create a presentation, no more than a total of 7 slides to explain:
• the concept of Turnover – the two types: voluntary and involuntary.
• examples of what can be done to reduce voluntary turnover, at least ten examples to offer as recommendations. Using Table 6.1, page 142, Critical Dimensions of Procedural Justice, as a reference.
• Understanding involuntary turnover, Table 6.2, on page 146, write five corrective action statements for five different employee situations, you must submit for discipline to HR because these employees are experiencing typical disciplinary problems (see Table 6.2). For each situation, identify the type of progressive discipline you recommend and why. Use pages 146-149, specifically. You can make up names for the five employees.
• Summary slide – what have you learned from this activity?

Submit a 2 page document.
Your supervisor, the CHRO needs assistance and delegates a short project to you. Your task is to develop a job description for the role of an HR business partner specialist. This position will report to you, the HR Coordinator. Make sure it is a comprehensive job description (use the information in your chapter and you are able to search open positions) BUT do not cut a paste. This position will work directly with you as a HR business partner to improve the work environment from a recent organization merger. Think about the skills needed to support you and the business office.
Also, develop 10 interview questions for the position to be asked of the candidates that will interview for the position. Also add the responses you would expect the candidates to provide as the “correct responses for the questions”.
Submit this as one assignment with two parts.

Submit a document contained on one (1) page or no more than two slides.

Do your research… perhaps you should include positions in fields you are interested in pursuing after graduation.
like accounts payable , account receivable, staff accountant

Scenario
You are the hiring manager for a large tech company. You are in the process of recruiting new employees for a global expansion project and seeing a large percentage of females entering the tech industry over the past few years. Because of this, the CEO has asked you to put together a part of the new training guide on the rights and responsibilities relating to gender diversity in the workplace.
Instructions
Develop a section of the training guide that:
Provides an introduction of gender diversity in the workforce.
Describes any existing legal protections for gender diversity in the workforce.
What do these policies cover, and what are their limitations?
Discusses the EEOC- Equal Employment Opportunity Commission – what is it?
What is its role in protecting gender diversity in the workforce?
Explains how a company’s global expansion might affect its gender diversity strategy with example.
Illustrates why effective diversity planning is so important to a global company and what role ethics play in planning and implementation.
Provide examples of strategies for conducting business and managing a diverse global workforce.
Be sure the 2-3-page training guide section displays proper grammar, spelling, punctuation, sentence structure, and credible sources cited in APA format.

In Chapter 4 of your text on table 4.2 there are listed six leadership styles as presented by Goleman. Consider that you are preparing a presentation to your employees about leadership.  Your goal is to have them understand the differences in the six styles and explain clearly when you would use those styles. 
Your job is to prepare a 12-14 page presentation (Powerpoint) comparing and contrasting the six styles of leadership with the end goal to teach your employees about them.  In addition, include a title page, an introductory page (an agenda), a concluding page and a reference page. Each of the 12-14 pages should include notes with at least 150 – 200 words each on the notes section within Powerpoint (VIEW / NOTES). The notes reflect comments that you will use for yourself when you present this presentation to your staff.  They are your talking points.  The Powerpoint slides that employees will see while you are talking will be a summary, typically in bullet format.
The first half of your presentation will include the discussion of the six styles (one slide per style), and in the second half of your presentation, create a scenario for each of the six explaining the style that you think is most appropriate for this scenario.  (i.e. the scenario is implementing an upgraded computer program for creating travel orders – what style would you use and why). 
Use the many options for color and innovative layouts available in Powerpoint to make your presentation professional. Review the rubric. Make your presentation interesting and attractive to the audience.  Keep in mind that many people print out presentations for the table.  If you use photos or diagrams, make sure they are open source while still citing your sources.
Use APA format for this assignment. Review the supporting materials within this assignment for tips on creating a good presentation. See APA reference guides in the content section of the classroom under course materials. Find at least two other references other than your book and use the article in your presentation. Your references should have an author! Avoid quotes. Use your own words while still citing your sources.

Read the article “What Gets Measured, Gets Managed” by Witman (2018) located in the
assigned Module: Week’s Learn section.
Describe how the Wells Fargo community bank incentive plan resulted in unethical and in most
cases, illegal behavior. How did the program objective (8 products per customer) contribute to
the misbehavior of employees? Do you think that incentives for higher ranking employees (i.e.
executives of the community bank) played a part in the depth and scope of the problems?
Thinking more broadly, the plan started in 2003 and did not become exposed as a problem until
late 2016. What role could the compensation group have played in minimizing the likelihood of
cheating to earn incentives when structuring the plan? Finally, what is HR (Comp and Benefits)
moral and ethical responsibility when designing such plans?

Module 3 – Case
DEVELOPING AND REWARDING EMPLOYEES
Assignment Overview
After a Hard Day’s Work at ACME
In this Module 3 Case, you have the opportunity to delve further into the talent management function and HR’s role in it. As you may recall from the video on talent management, performance management, learning and motivating, compensation, career development, and succession planning all are contributors to building a strong talent pool.
You will learn more about two employees who have been with ACME, Inc. for two years. Andy is working as a quality assurance specialist in the plant and Ismal is an IT robotics specialist. These employees are friends and often meet outside of work with a few other ACME employees, including Henry, a new employee recently hired as an HR Staffing Specialist.
Ismal caught some movement out of the corner of his eye. It was a video on the overhead TV screen:
Seven Dimensions (2021). 4 Essentials for Compassionate Leadership. Insights and Strategies: Workplace Skills.  10:49 minute video. Available in the Trident Online Library, Films on Demand. 
“Quiet….Listen to this,” pleaded Ismal. The table of acquaintances turned to the screen. “That’s it–I make good money at ACME, but lately I feel something is missing.”
“Something is missing? Ismal, you are lucky. Many things are missing for me, ever since I got my new manager…” said Andy.
“Yep, more than one thing for me too,” said Ismal, thinking about his own lousy boss.
Your Role: You are Henry, the HR staffing specialist. Henry wants to impress his HR boss and thought “what an opportunity….I’m going to prepare a detailed plan to save ACME from losing these and other ACME star employees as well.”
Case Assignment
Prepare a 3- to 4-page actionable strategy addressing HR’s role (ACME-wide) related to employee retention. Pull in as many good HR practices as possible that Henry could employ to help in employee performance, motivation, and retention. The strategic plan that you develop for Henry to use should cover recommended actions for the organization during the next 12 months.
In addition to the background readings, find at least two high-quality additional sources from the Trident Online Library and/or from web sources to augment your plan, such as, for example, academic or industry magazine/journal articles. 
Submit your Case 3 paper by the Module 3 due date.
Note: This assignment requires a 3- to 4-page Word document (not counting the cover page or the reference page). 

Review the reward and recognition program your current employer offers its employees. If your organization does not have one or you are currently not working, please talk with a family member or close friend whose employer has a formal reward and recognition program. Otherwise, conduct online research and locate a company that has a publicized reward and recognition program that you can easily become familiar with, such as O.C. Tanner, Salesforce, Nike, Apple, and Google.
Your First Post
Please respond with at least 250 words to the following questions (there is a word counter in the text box):
What are the requirements employees must meet to be considered for a reward or recognition?
Describe the program as you understand it. For example, are there various levels of rewards or recognition opportunities?
What do your coworkers think about the current program?
What are your suggestions for changes to the current program?
Why are these changes needed?
