...assumptions, psychology, and life goals. Looking at today’s competitive world, managerial level staff will require more conceptual and strategic skills. Managers have to be proactive, able to anticipate technological developments and prepare their staff for whatever technological changes that might take place. This will be a successful task only when the HRM itself is fully aware of those changes and has the means to deal with them. HR managers have a number of roles to fulfill. They are the guardians of the manpower- the key assets of the organizations. They are also counselor and protector of employees and directly responsible for their effectiveness in the organization. They need to do their jobs in keeping with the existing laws, rules and regulations of the organization, and promote harmony at the workplace. This has direct bearing in a healthier and more attractive work environment. The success or failure of HR depends also on the top management’s recognition of the importance of HRM, and on its commitment to assist HR to carry out its functions. The HR managers need capability, integrity and professionalism in order to succeed in the ever-changing environment. 2. The HRM in the Army is a system that enables the manning, readiness and wellbeing of the army through transformed systems, programs, policies and procedures. The term HRM has been accepted academically and over time...

...Intruding Ima and the Falsified Report An 8-year employee of your police agency, Officer Ima Goodenough, is a patrol officer who often serves as a field training officer. Goodenough is generally capable and experienced in both the patrol and detective divisions. She takes pride in being of the “old school” and has developed a clique of approximately 10 people with whom she gets along while mostly shunning other officers. As an officer of the old school, she typically handles calls for service without requesting cover units or backup. She has had six complaints of brutality lodged against her during the last 3 years. For Ima and her peers, officers who call for backup are “wimps.” She has recently been involved in two high-speed pursuits during which her vehicle was damaged when she attempted to run the offender off the road. Ima will notify a supervisor only when dealing with a major situation. She is borderline insubordinate when dealing with new supervisors. She believes that, generally speaking, the administration exists only to “screw around with us.” You, her shift commander, have been angry about her deteriorating attitude and reckless performance for some time and have been wondering whether you will soon have occasion to take some form of disciplinary action against her. You have also learned that Ima has a reputation among her supervisors as being a “hot dog.” Some of her past and present supervisors have even commented that she is a “walking time bomb”...

...Security" A little background on what it means to exercise command at sea: "Only a seaman realizes to what great extent an entire ship reflects the personality and ability of one individual, her Commanding Officer. To a landsman, this is not understandable, and sometimes it is even difficult for us to comprehend--but it is so! A ship is a different world in herself, and in consideration of the protracted and distant operations of the fleet units, the Navy must place great power, responsibility and trust in the hands of those leaders chosen for command. In each ship there is one man who, in the hour of emergency or peril at sea, can turn to no other man. There is one who alone is ultimately responsible for the safe navigation, engineering performance, accurate gunfiring, and morale of his ship. He is the Commanding Officer. He is the ship! This is the most difficult and demanding assignment in the Navy. There is not an instant during his tour as Commanding Officer that he can escape the grasp of command responsibility. This is a duty which most richly deserves the highest time-honored title of the seafaring world--'CAPTAIN.'" Captain Joseph Conrad Our Case Study: The weather would be turning bad overnight, but late on a sunny afternoon in gentle seas, the Commanding Officer (the CO) had a fresh cup of coffee in hand and enjoyed what little was left of the day in his designated chair on the bridge. It was an older ship, but she could still perform in an award-winning way, even...

...Lord of the Flies Lord of the Flies starts off with a bunch of boys stranded on a tropical island. This is a perfect place for a group of kids to have tons of fun. The kids have no adult supervision and do not have to worry about getting in trouble by adults. "When the little kids land they are delighted to find that there are no grown-ups about. This shows that they do not worry about getting in trouble, which will later come back to haunt them. The young boys plan on having a fun time on the island and plan on just goofing around. All the kids seem to be happy about being together on the island and plan on being rescued soon. The children in the first section of the book still follow the laws and rules that they had before. Jack "The hunter" cannot bring himself to kill a pig in the beginning of the book. "In his first confrontation with a pig, Jack fails, unable to plunge his knife into living flesh, to bear the sight of flowing blood, and unable to do so because he is not yet far enough away from the taboo of the old life. This shows that the kids still do have morals. Another example of the boys still following the laws and rules of society is when “Roger throws stones at Henry, but he throws to miss because ‘round the squatting child was the protection of parents and school and policemen and the law. These rules and laws however do not apply much longer to these children. Things start to go down hill when work has to be done and they have to act more like adults...

...Unit 7 Assignment Supervisory Practices in Criminal Justice Pro Denise Womer Case Study Jane Roberts Public Safety Officer Public Safety Officer Jane Roberts got pregnant while on duty by her Field Training Officer, Andrew Tibbetts. Now she blames her supervisor, Sergeant Williams for the incident because he’s the one that paired her wit FTO Tibbetts, knowing he was known as a ladies’ man. She is threatening to obtain workers’ compensation since it occurred on duty, after contacting a lawyer over the pregnancy. There are several issues with the incident with PSO Jane Roberts, as well as the department and how it’s ran in terms of keeping employees. Sergeant Williams paired Roberts with Tibbetts because he was one of the best field training officers he could pair her with and she held her own against other officers like him in terms of the flirting. He felt she could handle it and she completed with high marks on her training. Sergeant Williams could not have foretold As a supervisor I feel that Sergeant Williams did not make a sound operational decision when he assigned PSO Roberts to FTO Tibbetts. According to our text,” good supervision is the result of the serious application of one’s knowledge about human behavior to the work situation. As a supervisor he was knowledgeable to the fact that FTO Tibbetts had a reputations a lady man and although in the past PSO. Roberts has done well with handling other interactions with male...

...Professor DelNero English 1021 11 December 2013 Review Assignment After watching this video you start to think of Ohio as one massive enclosed zoo. This documentary touches on a great national debate in which both sides are holding their ground. It was alarming to me to see how many exotic animals were present all around us especially in Ohio. This movie shed light into the daily duties of a police officer that many people do not get to see, along with the responsibilities these officers have in society. I honestly thought this documentary was well put together and really gave credit to the officers that are on first lines of this exotic animal infestation. One of the more extreme examples of this animal infestation was with an older gentleman who was raising 2 African lions. Since he lived in a more remote area of Ohio he thought it would be all right to raise these exotic wild cats. The older gentleman who was raising these big cats had had them from when they were kittens and had grown to love these animals, which is what makes owning them even more dangerous. What really brought this documentary together was the fact that they showed both sides of this national debate. They gave you an inside look on how the owners of these animals are feeling and why they have these exotic pest. It also shows how the police and animal control have to round these dangerous animals up and risk their life doing so. All in all I thought this documentary was well put together and shed valuable...

...Exercise 2 Given below is a direct Memo from the President and CEO of Meherban Marketing Enterprises, Hyderabad, as part of company policy. To : All staff From : Vivaan Gupta President and CEO Date : 18 July 2014 Subject : Cutting Down Tour Expenditure of Officers In the recent months, I has been noticed that there is a spurt in the tour expenditure incurred by our officers when they had gone on tours/visits. This was not only a wasteful expenditure, but also sets a poor example to our subordinates. In view of the above, may I request to all the heads of divisions, to see that not more than 5% of the officers be sent on visits/tours at any one time. As far as possible they should not stay in accommodation which is higher than their entitlement/permissible allowance. The laundry expenses in a large number of cases which had exceeded the cost of board. I guess it is the time that with immediate effect a flat laundry allowance of Rs. 5/- per day should be granted. Entertainment allowance was also on the higher side. I would like to invite your opinion on the amount, which should be admissible. Personally, I think Rs. 15/- per day would be more than adequate. In addition, I received a representation from the officer’s union that they require a hike in their conveyance/fuel allowance, at Hyderabad. I am sure that all Divisional heads would motivate their staff to see this request of mine in its correct perspective. This policy...
