...Chapter 5 Questions 1. What is a job analysis? Why should a company perform job analysis for the organization's jobs? Job Analysis refers to the various methods that are used to analyze the requirements of the job. Two tools used for this include the job description and mission statement of an organization. Organizations should always perform job analysis for their jobs to ensure their employee selection is valid and defensible; thus accurately measuring the requirements of the job itself in a fair and reliable way. Essentially, a valid selection procedure should effectively measure whether or not the applicant’s qualifications match those that are needed for the job, and not much more or less. 2. Describe three major methods or techniques that organizations use for job analysis process. Three major techniques utilized by organizations and companies in the job analysis process include Narrative Job Analysis, Task-Analysis Inventory, and the Position Analysis Questionnaire. Narrative Job Analysis is a narrative or descriptive set of information about a particular job or position within an organization. The quality of the information contained in the description typically depends on the writing skills of the analyst. Task-Analysis Inventory refers to a set of methods with the goal of analyzing all the tasks performed in the focal job. Once a list of tasks is developed for the job, an analyst will evaluate each task on things such as amount of time spent, frequency, etc...

...Political Frame: Intro to frame: The political frame assumes that competition for scarce resources creates an emphasis on power, conflict, and organizational politics. (Roddy 2010) subordinates contesting decisions. Shafritz, Ott, and Jang (2005) offer a definition of power: “Power is the ability to get things done the way one wants them done; it is the latent ability to influence people” (p. 284). There are two basic benefits to understanding organizations through this definition. First, this definition emphasizes the relativity of power. Second, it reminds the reader that conflict and use of power are often not about outcomes, but rather methods, means, and approaches (Shafritz, Ott, & Jang, 2005). {Roddy:2010th} organizations are redefined as “complex systems of individuals and coalitions, each having its own interests, beliefs, values, preferences, perspectives, and perceptions” (Shafritz, Ott, & Jang, 2005, p. 283). {Roddy:2010th} The political frame is rooted in the power and politics organizational theory which describes organizations as places where power is exercised in the allocation of scarce resources (Durocher, 1996). The source of this power is found through authority, expertise, controlling rewards, and personal power or characteristics (such as charisma, intelligence, communications skills, etc.) (Bolman & Deal, 1984). {Roddy:2010th} many have gone on to define politics as the tactics and strategies actors use to articulate...

In April, Sibal had created a dedication that the product would be ready by end of May. Priced at about Rs 2,276, Sibal had placed the new and enhanced edition of Aakash as an academic aid for Native indian learners. He had also reiterated in the Lok Sabha that the govt is operating on an enhanced item after the first one turned out to be a wet squib due to low power supply lifespan and slowly processer speed. An email question to the minister's office on position of Aakash 2 stayed un answered. But authorities operating on the venture informed ET on the situation of privacy that the pills and associated applications are being examined at the Native indian Institution of Technological innovation in Mumbai. Amidst much excitement, Sibal had first discussed the item truly. The plan then was to make a cheap laptop available to academic institutions by Jan 2011, but that was not to be as HCL Infosystems, the company that had been shortened to produce, supported out. Consequently, in Feb, the govt chosen Canada-based Datawind for the $35-tablet venture. Indian Institution for Technological innovation, Rajasthan...
