...Case Study Paper by mvp007202 Psychology Student Liberty University Online for PSYC 255, Research Psychology Professor Jesse Winn April 21, 2014 Case Study Paper A case study provides valuable scientific information that enables researchers to further advance the world around us. There are various methods researchers use to perform case studies and each method serves its own purpose. There are advantages and disadvantages of conducting a case study, and various ways to collect the data needed. What is a Case Study A case study is an in-depth analysis of someone’s complete life history where the researcher seeks causes and patterns for behavior. Case studies can be both qualitative and quantitative, depending on the method used to gather information. A case study could also be done on a group, community, or an event. The goal of a case study is to find how one’s case can be a generalization for others, to find common ground per se, and to advance research previously conducted. Unfortunately, it is very difficult to generalize these subjective studies to a large population of people. (Case study as a research method, 1997) Case studies can be both qualitative and quantitative, depending on the method used to gather information. The most known case studies came from Sigmund Freud. He conducted detailed investigations into the lives of his patients, attempting to provide insight to their illnesses and help them overcome the challenges their illnesses brought....

...Case Study Analysis Paper Melissa Coy COMM/215 Feb 15th, 2015 Beverly Raznoff * The key problems for this case study are as follows: Carl’s paperwork and files for his new hires aren’t complete. Also, the training room has already been scheduled for the whole month of June by another employee. Carl as many issues that need to be remedied such as incomplete employee files, missing paperwork, and the orientation room being double booked. Background Carl has started a new recruitment of trainees for his Operations Supervisor, Monica. In May he was contacted about the paperwork and to see if everything would be scheduled in time for his orientation in June. He assured her that everything would be completed in time. To his dismay a few weeks before his orientation he discovered that that some of the new trainees didn’t have applications or transcripts in their files. The new hires hadn’t been sent to the clinic for their drug tests either. He also found out that another employee, Joe, had scheduled the training room for a computer training seminar for the whole month of June. If Carl wants to get his orientation on schedule and completed he needs to find a way to get his paperwork finished on time and find a place to conduct the training. Alternatives Possible alternatives for Carl’s situation could be: 1. Push the start date for the orientation back to a later date. (Possible constraints: Monica was...

...Case Study Analysis Paper Frieda Asep Johnson COMM215 August 11, 2014 Mark Polanzak Case Study Analysis Paper Timeline Scheduling: A New Recruiter’s Placement of New Recruits As a well established textile company, ABC, Inc. has a long standing tradition in assigning job placement staff to surrounding colleges at the end of each semester. It is a means of recruiting the best candidates for employment upon graduation. Also new to our staff, Carl Robins, a Recruiter of six months in the Personnel department, has demonstrated a great capacity for succeeding in his role. Moreover, to safeguard and promote the standards maintaining personnel hiring policies, our organizational workflows have been put in place to systematically or chronologically cluster-link processes with staff, resources, and state of the art technology to complete diverse tasks. After a close examination, indicators strongly suggest discontinuity in the process threatening adverse affects upon expected outcomes. In such an event, repercussions would be exhibited in a dominos effect throughout the company to greater or lesser degree; but the individual(s) responsible to oversee the campaign success, would be held to higher accountability. How vitally important, then, it is to observe with an eye towards turning the well established premise that preparing for complete failure can be traced back to failing to completely prepare—albeit, unintentionally. In his duties, Carl has the unique charge...

The main realm of subject study is the consumer behaviors in global perspectives. The studies are also aimed to create the sense in the students about how to analyze the case study. So to achieve the said objectives the extensive literature review is conducted including the evaluation of consumer behaviors and their decisions regarding purchases while including the lessons learned by the Apple regarding the differences in consumer behavior and purchasing decisions between the Japanese market and the market outside of Japan. The consumer behaviors during the field survey administered under subject study are found dissimilar across the cultures. These dissimilarities in behaviors of the customers across the cultures affect the company’s marketing mix strategies. These effects are discussed in sections created below.

...Case Study Analysis Paper Shawna Macauley Eng/215 May 13, 2013 Diana Penning Case Study Analysis Paper ABC, Inc. recruits, hires, and trains its own employees. Carl Robins, the new campus recruiter failed to organize, follow-up, and reserve a room to train his new recruits. Robins either failed to follow a specific guideline in place for the process of organizing and training new trainees or a specific guideline was not given to him. He assumed certain things and procrastinated, therefore, created a situation of disorder. As a consequence he must make up for lost time and actively correct his incomplete situation. The challenges Robins created by not planning thoroughly were: incomplete files on each new recruit, incomplete orientation manuals for the new trainees, and not securing the training room for orientation. Robins has less than two weeks to correct his mistakes and creatively come up with a solution for not have a room for training. This case involved issues concerning organization and follow through. Robins needed to initiate a detailed plan. To ensure success ABC, Inc. needs a proper training system in place for new recruits as well as a system in place for its new campus recruiter to follow. Robins faces the challenge of making up for lost time and lost resources. This analysis will focus on the issues surrounding lack of planning and organization within ABC, Inc. training and orientation system; as well as the failed action of its new recruiter...

Please post case studies in Turnitin Assignment Drop Box as a MS Word document. Remember, each case study must have the heading listed below and must be answered according to instructions; each heading is worth a percentage of each case grade. This is how I want your paper turned in. The introduction is generally one paragraph. The easiest way to explain this section is to think of it like an abstract or introduction. This section, if written properly, can actually act as the abstract for this paper. It will, in a sense, set up the rest of the paper, which is the review of the case, analysis, recommendations, and the summary and conclusions sections. If there is a second paragraph, it will look like this. An interesting APA fact is that there is only one space after the period. This is difficult for many to get used to and takes practice. The paper should be written in third person narrative. I do not want to see you writing in the first person. Note: I have bolded the required headings that must be present in the paper and please keep bolded. Answer the following questions by applying the concepts learned in Chapter 1.

J. of Human Resource Management 18:11 November 2007 1895– 1916 The global integration of diversity management: a longitudinal case study Aulikki Sippola and Adam Smale Abstract Whilst the extant diversity management literature has provided a comprehensive array of theoretical frameworks and empirical studies on how organizations can and have approached the management of a diverse workforce, the same cannot be said about the literature on diversity in an international setting. Indeed, from a diversity management perspective we know surprisingly little about how multinational firms are responding to the increasing globalization of their workforce. This study seeks to contribute to this underresearched area through an in-depth longitudinal case study of TRANSCO, a well-known European MNC, which has been attempting to integrate diversity management globally throughout its worldwide operations. Adopting a Finnish host-country perspective, the study investigates what TRANSCO has been integrating, how it has tried to facilitate this and the challenges that have arisen throughout the process...
