This manual will also enable the HR professional in the four functions of job analysis, selection process, orientation and training, in order to help the organization meet it’s goals for the business analyst position. Executive Summary As a human resource manager it is important to identify the organization’s goals and requirements. A successful HR manager will use this information to effectively manage the aptitude of the personnel to achieve the company’s target. The key factor in doing so is to properly staff the company for the jobs that must be completed. Staffing can be extremely intense because the company depends on the HR manager to find the best qualified person to match each job within the organization. This guide focuses on the necessary steps to hire someone for a business analyst position. There are four functions that are crucial in the hiring process: Job Analysis, Selection, Orientation & Training. The first method is the job analysis. “Job analysis is sometimes called the cornerstone of HRM because the information it collects serves so many HRM functions. Job analysis is the process of obtaining information about jobs by determining the duties, task, or activities of those jobs,” is stated by Bohlander and Snell the authors of Managing Human Resources. (Bohlander and Snell, 2007 p. 144) The second method is the selection process...

...to a person’s conduct in respect to the right or wrong of certain actions. In the Ethics game, there was a situation presented that dealt with possible sexual harassment and how it should be addressed. In the game, Gayle, an employee of mine was receiving flowers from an unknown party. She was uncomfortable with the gift and confided in me for advice. Another employee had initially brought it to my attention, but I could not intervene with hearsay. When Gayle, finally came to me I had to make a decision based on what was best for the company as well as focus on all the needs of my employees. It was assumed that another employee, Bill, was sending the flowers to her anonymously. When evaluating the circumstances I had a duty to make sure that all of my employees felt safe and that no one was falsely accused. I knew that happy employees are more productive, making for happier customers and more revenue. In business, the perception of a business can make or break it. I knew that it would not be a good look for our company to be known for sexual harassment scandals that may cost the shareholders and the company money in the future. In my business, I knew that I needed to work with human resources to insure that the issue is resolved as smoothly as possible. In my decision making process about the possible sexual harrassment against Gayle there were several things that I needed to consider. Such as the following: • When did it occur? • Have any other events, besides the flowers...

...1. What do you think is the most important emerging issue in the design of work? I think the most important issue in the design of work is the sociotechnical system. Sociotechnical systems (STS) in organizational development are approaches to complex organizational work design that recognizes the interaction between people and technology in workplaces. The term also refers to the interaction between society's complex infrastructures and human behavior. In this sense, society itself, and most of its substructures, are complex sociotechnical systems. Sociotechnical systems theory is theory about the social aspects of people and society and technical aspects of organizational structure and processes. Here, technical does not imply technology. "Technical" was a term used in those times to refer to structure and a broader sense of technicalities. Sociotechnical refers to the interrelatedness of social and technical aspects of an organization. Sociotechnical theory therefore is about joint optimization, with a shared emphasis on achievement of both excellence in technical performance and quality in people's work lives. Sociotechnical theory, as distinct from sociotechnical systems, proposes a number of different ways of achieving joint optimization. They are usually based on designing different kinds of organization, ones in which the relationships between socio and technical elements lead to the emergence of productivity and wellbeing. Sociotechnical refers to the interrelatedness...

...Communication Differences and Strategies Understanding communication differences and the strategies to prevent conflict because of these differences is important when establishing relationships. According to Christopher (2008), “men and women have differing frameworks for how they view the world” (p. 1). The following presentation will provide information on types of verbal and nonverbal communication and how communication differs among men and women. Information on some common miscommunications and examples are also included in the presentation. The presentation includes a description of a situation that occurred that involved sexual harassment in the workplace, and recommendations for strategies to prevent this type of hostile conflict in the workplace. Types of Verbal and Nonverbal Communication People communicate verbally and nonverbally. Verbal communication is the exchange of words, for example, face-to-face, by telephone, or via technologies, such as a computer (Engleberg & Wynn, 2011).The language used is also important when communicating verbally. Language refers to the individuals’ ability to express his or her ideas and influence the listener (Engleberg & Wynn, 2011). The content and tone of a verbal message is an indication of the type of relationship between two individuals (Ivy & Backlund, 2008). For example, a simple “hello” to someone in a warm tone of voice conveys a sense of friendship and familiarity, whereas a hollow, perfunctory tone may indicate a more...

...their experiences. © 2004 Centre for Research on Violence Against Women and Children ISBN# 0-9688655-3-4 1 “To understand violence, we have to examine both the personal experience and the terrain of that experience.” Dr. Yasmin Jiawani This report is built on the personal experiences of women who have experienced workplace harassment, but their stories are also about the “terrain” or the context of those experiences. In drawing out the commonalities of their experiences, we have begun to shed light on the terrain. We must transform the terrain if women are to have equality and safety in their workplaces. 2 We dedicate this report to Theresa Vince whose death in 1996 changed the views of many people in Ontario about sexual and workplace harassment. Her tragic and untimely death showed us that workplace harassment can no longer be easily dismissed as a trivial problem. Fundamentally, the goal of this report is to prevent any other woman from losing her life and to stop the...

Spend 40 minutes on Section A and 40 minutes on Section B SECTION A QUESTION ONE PRIME MINISTERIAL POWER “For too long the big political decisions in this country have been made in the wrong place. They are not made around the Cabinet table where they should be, but they are taken on the sofa in Tony Blair’s office. No notes are kept and no one takes the blame when things go wrong. That arrogant style of government must come to an end. I will restore the proper process of government. I want to be Prime Minister of this country not a President (Source: David Cameron, The Times, 5th October 2006) “The Cabinet is the committee at the centre of the British political system.
