...Survey of Organizational Excellence 360 Degree Feedback Report Prepared Especially For Harry Trout Texas State Agency (ID 750) Spring 2002 Harry Trout - Texas State Agency - Spring 2002 Introduction The development of leadership is a continuous process as an individual gains experiences, assumes greater levels of responsibility, and faces a growing complexity of organizational problem solving demands. The 360 degree feedback assists in this development through two fundamental objectives. The first objective is on an individual level. For the individual, the process provides leaders with unique data perspectives of their abilities as viewed by their peers, subordinates, those in supervisory roles, and self-examination. The best use of these data for individuals is to design a personal development plan to address areas of concern surfaced through the assessment. The second objective is to improve overall organizational performance. As an organization’s leaders develop their abilities to work, manage, and lead, the performance and attitudes of corresponding workgroups will improve. Therefore, the entire organization stands to benefit as individuals improve. To assist you in this process, your personalized 360 Feedback Report contains the following elements: This Introduction to the 360 Explanation of 360 Leadership Roles Interpretation of the 360 Data Your Overall 360 Profile Role Comparison Scores and Item Score Breakdown Open Ended Question Listing Appendix...

Supplemental Factors for Supervisory Staff Members Performance Appraisal Information Sheet Appraising the performance of staff is the single most important job duty associated with the role of supervision, and one of the most complex in terms of skill. Competent appraisal involves the supervisor in setting goals and standards, clearly communicating performance expectations, assisting staff in accomplishing the job to be done, and evaluating the results. This is performance management, accomplished day-by-day, and in response to changing needs, assignments and the requirements of the job. This formal review process is designed to work with and encourage the informal day to day practice of performance management, while providing a framework in support of salary adjustments, promotion and employment decisions. The University of Arizona requires that employees receive a formal performance appraisal once a year (typically on the anniversary date of hire into the position), with new employees receiving reviews at three months and six months as part of the probationary process.

As one of its major undertaking, the firm seeks to expand its smartphone program to include all employees that own a mobile phone and a laptop. The company has ten senior members of the executive who are prioritized by the scheme, as well as another one-hundred employees that own a cell phone and a laptop. Notably, fifteen employees that have been signed up for the training will require the program’s expanded internet service. In case funding gets approved, this project is intended to save considerable finances in the long run. The Scope of the Smartphone Project The scope of the Smartphone project is to establish the deadline for project, in terms of the time duration it will take to finally realize the programmed expansion across the firm (Kerzner, 2013). In the context of this project, finalization of the firm’s member upgrade should be achieved within a period of one month. The project scope also includes the information necessary for successful completion of the project.

...1. Introduction Succession planning is not an issue that many organizations address in any systematic way. Because many nonprofits are small (with fewer than 10 employees) and because they may be facing other organizational challenges, thinking about who the next executive director might be or what would happen if the director of finance suddenly left is not high on their priority list. There are many reasons why organizations need to be thinking about succession planning. The most important reason, of course, is that we rely on staff to carry out our missions, provide services and meet our organization's goals. We need to think about what would happen to those services or our ability to fulfill our mission if a key staff member left. Another reason to focus on succession planning is the changing realities of workplaces. The impending retirement of the baby boomers is expected to have a major impact on workforce capacity. Teresa Howe in "Succession Planning and Management" identified other emerging realities about the workforce in Canada: • Vacancies in senior or key positions are occurring in numerous organizations simultaneously and demographics indicate there are statistically fewer people available to fill them • Baby boomer retirements are on the rise just at the time when the economy is growing and increasing the demand for senior management expertise • There is no emerging group of potential employees on the horizon as in past generations (i.e. baby boomers...

Whether we are talking about marketing information, cost projections, accounting results, or internal quality reports, every company depends on knowledge to support its planning, decision-making, and control. So how does knowledge fit into the picture? The emergence of the field called knowledge management has highlighted some key propositions in the last 10 years or so. All organizations are storehouses of knowledge that operate in information-rich environments made up of people and things both inside and outside the organization itself Organizations organize, interpret, and evaluate this information to solve organizational problems Knowledge is the primary mechanism for processing and utilizing information People's brains are the key knowledge resource of any organization Codified knowledge stored in books, audio, videotapes, and computer systems can be an important knowledge resource as well There are organizational processes and strategies for IT management and management in general. Therefore, processes and strategies in particular can significantly enhance the ability of organizations to...
