...Human Resource Department Roles Audrick Willis HCS/341 May 8, 2013 Teletha Leonard Human Resource Department Roles Most organizations today have a human resource deparment. All HR deparments have roles that play for the organization regardless of the type and size. The purpose of the human deparment is to assist the human portion of the company. Its imporant that each organization has a HR deparment that is effiecient and has great quality this benefit the organization is varies ways. The functional roles of the HR deparment are very important towards the human because human are known to be very important to an organization. (Stringer) A very imporant function of the HR deparment is recruiment. The role of the recruiment function is to make sure that they recruit the right people for the job. (Stringer) They also then have made sure the each person they hired is in the correct job postions based upon their skills and abilities. This is a very important job and has a huge impact on the impact because as long as the employee do their jobs correct the organization will be a success. They also help with the interview process testing the employee abilities that they have for the job. Training the employees for the skills that are required for a job is also a functional role of the HR deparment. They have a trainging specialist that teaches the employees the learning objective and methods they need to do their job correctly. (Stringer) Most time the training is for leadership...

...1 Laura Driver Ascension Health Course Research Project South University Principles of Management 2 I selected “Ascension Health” as my final project. As follows are the questions to this assignment. Questions: 1. Describe the manager’s functional role in the organization. 2. Explain expectations of the role. 3. Evaluate how the manager fulfills the expectations of the role. 4. Explore the different types of planning in your assigned reading. Explain what specific planning challenges you think this manager might face on a day to day basis. 5. Provide examples. 6. Compare these planning challenges to a manager in a similar position 25 years ago (1987). Background Ascension Health is considered the largest nonprofit health care in the United States. Therefore, there is many positions from doctors to staff members throughout all the facilities in the country. Ascencion Health has two systems that help them to plan, organize and control their data from Patients that come in for treatments to billing. They have web portals, nurse navigators, and hospitals programs.” In order for me to describe the manager’s functional role of this organization website, in which remarks that technical Managers are responsible for managing all infrastructure, performance and availability of all technology devices in the organization's set-up. 3 At Ascension Health, their operating model guides them on the better way to make decisions, they work together, which...

...bridge from misery to hope” (Unesco). Thus, being illiterate is not the way to get out of that dark hole especially when you have the access to learn it. However, one might think of being literate as a way to simply get jobs or to survive, and I would not disagree with that, but I think that literacy cannot just be defined as the one only might think of it as. Furthermore, the connection between literacy and the form of literacy itself, which people use as a necessity, was also mentioned in Literacy and the Politics of Education by C.H Knoblauch as a functional literacy, and he basically explains that this kind of literacy used when people process the information, such as “reading sets of instructions” (Knoblauch 76). Even though Knoblauch agrees that this type of literacy is the most familiar one, I believe that there are still ups and downs of defining literacy in a functional way. Ultimately, defining literacy as a functional literacy does not really enclose the process of being literate completely, and there is also a limitation with seeing literacy this way because it simply ignores other purposes of being literate such as helping people who are in need. There are numerous of people that I personally know who were not going to college or any educational institutions whatsoever, but now, some of them are comfortably sitting in a leading position. Some work in a private bank in Indonesia, and some even have their own coffee shop. One thing that I notice from those...

...Eli Lilly is a leading pharmaceutical company located in Indianapolis, Indiana, which specializes in treatment of several high profile diseases. Evista, a newly developed drug by Eli Lilly, is an estrogen replacement therapy medicine for prevention of osteoporosis which through testing has seemed to lower the incidence of breast cancer in women. This FDA approved drug is expected to be a potential blockbuster and generate revenue of 1 billion US dollars per year for the company. Pharmaceuticals is a highly competitive market and it is imperative for the leading companies to recuperate their development costs and generate returns for stockholders as well as fund research and development for potential new drugs at almost a constant rate. With the profitable lifetime for drugs, in United States, being significantly shortened since the 1980’s, Lilly Research Laboratories was able to develop Evista in a much shorter time period by adopting a Matrix-Based development approach and utilizing heavyweight teams. This strayed from their usual path of function-based product development strategy. With the possibility of profound profits from the commercialization of Evista, Dr. Gus Watanabe has to weigh whether the increasing internal resistance to heavyweight teams and shortage of resources is worth it. Watanabe needs to make a decision about adopting this new successful heavyweight team approach for commercialization of Evista as well as product development. Changes in the past few years...

...Illiterate are constantly struggling to function well in the society. Their lack of basic essentials can be disastrous in terms of losing their human potential and productivity and a general failure to access many of life's opportunities. How can anyone with low literacy rate complete daily tasks such as writing a letter, filling out forms, helping their child with homework and so on? Illiterate adults face problems not only in the workforce but right in their very own homes. Almost everything would be a disadvantage if a person is illiterate. A person who is illiterate can't read, write, of course hasn't been to a school, hasn't received education, can't learn the mannerism an educational institute provides, can't have the ability to think like cultured people, can't have effective decision making ability where he/she can weigh the pros and cons of a situation etc. In today's world, its very important to receive education and be able to handle your life properly through your knowledge and understanding. There are people who have a certain sort of skill but due to the lack of any education, they don't get a chance to improve upon it or enhance it. Take the example of a person who loves to draw but hasn't been to a professional art institute.He would still be drawing but would never be aware of the possibilities that he could have explores only if he was literate. He would never know how an artist can publicize his work, what other mediums he can use besides oil, paint...

...C) Använd Coopers tre dimensioner och diskutera de faktorer som MB skulle tvingas konkurrera med andra biltillverkarna som Jeep, Ford och GM. Using Cooper’s cost, quality, functionality chart, discuss the factors on which MB competes with other automobile producers such as Jeep, Ford, and GM. (If the instructor wishes to give a brief mini-lecture on Robin Cooper’s survival triplet and confrontation strategy,2 this is a good point in the case discussion to do so.) The factors are: * price—at mid to upper range of zone; * quality—at upper range of zone; * functionality—at upper range of zone. An interesting point to discuss is that Mercedes does not produce the most expensive sports utility vehicle. This distinction is reserved for the Land Rover; however, they strategically placed themselves toward the luxury end of the spectrum. Also, unlike many Japanese examples, Mercedes does not use target costing as a strict cost control mechanism to produce the lowest priced product in its class. D) Hur kan AAV-projektet kopplas till MBs strategi i fråga om marknadstäckning? The new introductions expand the product line of the traditionally luxury-oriented manufacturer. Recent product introductions include the following: * A Class * C Class * SLK * E Class * M Class These new introductions include new sports cars and off-road vehicles. The C Class is a mid-sized vehicle sometimes referred to as the baby-Benz. # Let’s discuss the elements of the target costing model and how...

...The Night Before An Examination It was the night before my examinations. I was appearing for my matriculation examination, for the third time. Come on, even intelligent people fail their exams too!! It was that “butterflies in stomach” Part-3 once again. Not for me, hah.. am talking about my parents. God knows why they took so much of tension about my exams. I had warned my parents of Diabetes and Ulcers way back, but they would never listen. I even asked them to emulate my carefree attitude when it came to exams, but they were one ignorant lot who would not heed good advice. Anyways, I was cool as a cucumber, because this time I had decided that it would not be the Season Three of some failed daily soap. I had made all fool-proof arrangements to pass this time. My dedication, patience, perseverance and persistence would definitely see me through my exams this time around. Day in and day out, I had sacrificed all my useless activities that kept me unduly busy; computer games, movies, parties, discos.. everything! I gave up everything as soon as the exam time table was announced. All my energy and efforts were now aimed at one single objective: getting the question paper somehow!! Patience is always rewarded, so are genuine efforts and dedication. I was lucky enough to discover a gem of a person in one of my class-mates, whom I revered as my senior, coz he had failed thrice in the same exam. He would have made one hell of a statesman...

...molecule) to bond with the wool very well. The biggest factor in which the dye bonds to the wool is that hydrogen bonds can form between the OH on the dye and the Nitrogens and Oxygens within the amino acid structure. Silk absorbed very well also. This is because the nitrogens and carbonyls within the polypeptides in the amino acid sequence of the silk fabric. This allows for the Hydrogen bonding between the OH of the dye and the carbonyl and Nitrogens within the polypeptide chain. Also, the polarity of these polar amino acids allow for better dying of the silk fabric. Nylon and cotton were not dyed as easily because not as much hydrogen bonding could occur. Many hydroxyl groups are present on cotton. These are the only functional groups on cotton that can hydrogen bond with the dye. Other than the hydroxyl groups that are present on the cellulose that...

...Unit 2 Review: Answers: Review for Organic Chemistry Unit Test 2. a) b) c) Write the IUPAC names for the following organic molecules: acetone: propanone d) acetylene: ethyne acetic acid: ethanoic acid e) toluene: methyl benzene formic acid: methanoic acid f) isopropyl alcohol: 2-propanol 3. Be able to use physical or chemical properties to distinguish between organic substances. For example, identify one physical or chemical property you could use to distinguish between the following pairs of organic substances: a) 2-butanol and 2-methyl-2-propanol: • 2-butanol is a secondary alcohol so it will undergo oxidation reactions with [O] to produce butanone (a ketone). An oxidizing agent such as KMnO4 or Na2Cr2O7 will change colour to indicate the reaction • 2-methyl-2-propanol is a tertiary alcohol, so it will not undergo an oxidation reaction with [O]. The oxidizing agent will not change colour b) cyclopentane and cyclopentene: • cyclopentane is saturated while cyclopentene is unsaturated • if bromine in water is added to both compounds, the cyclopentane will not remove the orange colour of the bromine, but the cyclopentene will turn the bromine colourless c) butane and 1-butanol: i) solubility in water: butane is a hydrocarbon so it is non-polar and will not dissolve well in water, while 1-butanol is an alcohol so it is polar and is miscible in water ii) state at SATP: butane is a very short chain alkane so it is a gas a SATP.

...Here is some clarification on functional dependencies. A functional dependency - if you know X, you can reasonably assume you know Y. X->Y X determines Y. Y is dependent on X For example: In the database in the Social Security Administration, your SSN relates to your first name and last name. SSN->Name, Address For Q11, select logical fields were a functional dependency may exist and create tables In Q11, the studentnum is probably unique. 1. Determine the FDs by selecting the fields in the table and one field may be dependent on another. For example, The studentname is probably functionally dependent on studentnum. Studentnum ( StudentName. Identify dependencies for each field in the problem. 2. Create table based on the dependencies. Remember, you need a primary key for each table.

...Week 13 Case Questions 1. Explain a surgical team as a kind of functional group. What features does it share with most functional groups? What features distinguish it from most functional groups? So if I was to explain a surgical team as a functional team it would have to be this: The doctor accesses the patients, the nurses reassess the patients and confirm what the doctor are doing with them and then the anesthesiologist does the same, so everyone knows that they are on the same page. They all confer with one another to come to a positive outcome to any procedure or project they are attempting. Whereas other groups are just trying to satisfy a customer, surgical teams are having to put their reputations and jobs on the line for their profession. 2. Explain a surgical team in terms of its role structures. What factors might lead to role ambiguity? To role conflict? To role overload? Role Structures: Dr.-Head of surgical team, Surgical Nurse – Pain Management and Dr.’s assistant, Anesthesiologist- pain management Role ambiguity- When one or more are doing practically the same job and neither knows what the other is doing. Role Conflict: When the Dr. is telling the nurse one thing, she/he miss understands tells the anesthesiologist something else. Role overload- When one or more of them think they know more about the procedure than the other and they are not capable of doing more than there job. 3. Explain how surgical team...

...Chapter 2 : Biological Molecules End of this chapter the student will learn about: a) What is the Functional groups and types. b) Macromolecules a) The build up of covalent bond by condensation or dehydration. b) The brake up of covalent bond by hydrolysis c) The chemical elements of life: a review Functional groups contribute to the molecular diversity of life • The components of organic molecules that are most commonly involved in chemical reactions are known as functional groups. • Functional groups are attachments that replace one or more hydrogen atoms to the carbon skeleton of the hydrocarbon. • Each functional groups behaves consistently from one organic molecule to another. • The number and arrangement of functional groups help give each molecule its unique properties. • The basic structure of testosterone (male hormone) and estradiol (female hormone) is identical. • Both are steroids with four fused carbon rings, but they differ in the functional groups attached to the rings. • These then interact with different targets in the body. Fig. 4.8 • There are six functional groups that are most important to the chemistry of life: hydroxyl, carbonyl, carboxyl, amino, sulfhydryl, and phosphate groups. • All are hydrophilic and increase solubility of organic compounds in water. Functional groups are specific groups of atoms within molecules that are responsible for the characteristic chemical reactions of those molecules. ...
