...encourage athletes to have goals to reach as a result of giving back to the community. In my opinion this structure will impinge on one another because of how it will help create a sense of unity between all groups through support and encouragement. Generally speaking, it is believed that high school sport athletes are pressured in today’s society to become the next Superstars of ESPN, Entertainment and Sports Programming Network, Inc. Sporting events and news are available to the public twenty-four hours a day on television and radio: sports are an enormous industry. The outstanding popularity of the sports industry has profoundly affected athletics and the community. The fact still remains that high school sports help establish many athletes in their moral, intellect, and character. The beneficial effects that I see in high school sports is it encourage athletes to have goals and creates a sense of unity between the athlete, family, and community, yet the concept of goals broaden an athletes horizon, by setting things in a different light. Though a dream may seem impractical, with the right steps in place, the idea can be obtained; therefore, the goal is achievable if an athlete set specific goals such as a state championship, a scholarship, or even going professional. The interaction of high school sports can help athletics realize that with practice and hard work an impractical dream can become a reality. When an athlete accomplishes this goal, there is a trickle down...

The first step is that of succession programming, followed by development and measurement steps. The last step is that of accountability and reward. Goal setting is a process considered a powerful way of motivating individuals and important in ensuring or rather determining the success of any business (Locke & Latham, 2002). How company managers approach the process of goal setting varies between big corporations and an owner running a business. There are usually five general principles required for a goal to motivate the concerned parties and these include feedback, clarity, task complexity, commitment and challenge (Locke & Latham, 2002). From the case study, it can be observed that step two of Allstate’s Corporation goal setting program, which is the development stage, allows for employee feedback on which future development programs can be founded (Locke & Latham, 2002). Additionally, step four involving accountability and reward ensures that employees are provided with a challenge for which they will receive awards at the end of successful completion of tasks assigned.

...Team D's Week Five Reflection Paper Continual training and development of employees from low-level to high-level is an integral part of an organization reaching for and achieving its goals. In order for an organization to be successful, collaboration between individuals and departments is imperative. Organizations may have their standard training and development programs to assist employees in reaching their ultimate level of performance; however monitoring of performance is necessary to ensure individual and organizational goals are met. The process of assessing an employee’s performance, managing employee opportunities and identifying areas of weakness is evaluated and handled in the performance improvement plan (PIP). The PIP spells out the areas of need, determines goals to improve these areas, and develops training and educational needs associated with successful performance enhancement development. The PIP addresses both the areas of behavioral and performance. In the reflection, Team “D” will address training and development and the PIP process in more detail to gain a better understand of the process. Assessing, implementing, and re-evaluating behaviors and goals will be addressed. Training and development of an employee are closely related but also very different. The goal is to achieve the tasks the organization requires and improve upon productivity and efficiency. The training process of a new employee is a requirement of his or her orientation. The...

Using the model for goal setting, evaluate Allstate’s goal setting process to determine whether or not Allstate has an effective goal setting program. The following are examples of how Allstate used the goal setting model effectively to create a diversified work environment. According to the text, (Don Hellriegel & John W. Slocum, 2011,2009) Allstate identified their goal which was to, “diversify their company and create a competitive advantage” (p215). In order to achieve goal Allstate was forced to pose the question to its management staff, “How do you take a workforce of differences and bring them together in a more powerful way so that it can impact business results” (p215). To answer that question Allstate executed a plan of action that included two focal points: Internal Diversity and External Diversity. Each focal point was supported by four specific steps: Succession Programming, Development, Measurement, Accountability and Reward. Each step created a process that solidified the goal that Allstate strived to achieve by first picking the right population, “training coaching and mentoring them, and then allowing the employees to give management feedback to improve future programs” (p216). To ensure that the management team realized that good management was important Allstate created the (QLMS) the Quarterly Leadership Measurement System...
