...• " A STUDY OF THE IMPACT OF HUMAN RESOURCE PRACTICES IN REGIONAL RURAL BANK OF MP II (A) INTRODUCTION OF HRD According to Economic Theory, the factors of production are land, labour, capital, organization and enterprise to produce and distribute goods and services. These five factors can be further grouped into two broad categories, (i) land and capital and (ii) labour, organization and enterprise. The former category is passive in nature while the latter one is active. The inputs of this category may be largely termed as human resources working in the form of entrepreneurs, managers and workers. No amount of production of any good or service is possible in their absence. Even with the given factor - inputs (factors of production) of the first category, the magnitude of goods and services and their quality depend on the quality of such human resources. In the present day society, the need for well developed and qualified human resources is being felt very profoundly to successfully face cut-throat competition. This is because the modern commercial and industrial scenario is characterized by mega-sized organizations, global competitions, innovative and newer wide variety of goods and services and ever changing technology. In this situation, the development of human resources has assumed more significance so as to understand and use ever - changing technology and to do the job effectively and efficiently, eventually leading to...

...processes are coming along. It has been brought to my attention that we may encounter some resource concerns with this global launch. The fabrics we use domestically cannot be shipped or exported so we need to address this concern. As far as textiles go we will need to look into alternatives for the Italy global expansion. Seen there are various concerns with resources that often come up with global expansion we will need to look into and address them all during this briefing. One of our board members use to run a textile plant in China so we will see if they still have contacts and that very well could solve and address our textile issues but not the others we may face. II. Global Strategy concerns for Resources The global expansion of a business opens untapped opportunities for the organizations growth especially in markets that are emerging and or contain fast-growth. With the opportunities that global expansion brings it also has a particular set of challenges associated with it; changes such as market-entry strategy, supply chain sourcing, building a consumer base, and manufacturing. On top of all of this you need to add financing, taxation, human resources, textiles, technology (where needed), natural resources, managerial resources considerations and so on. It becomes trickier and trickier. So let’s discuss some of the concerns we need to address with global strategy and available resources in Italy (Global Economic Symposium, 2015). i.

In 1975, Tanner Emerson and Thurston Wood were the originally founders of Tanglewood. Initially, Tanglewood’s named originated from Tannerwood, which at the time only sold outdoor products and clothing. The business has a wonderful reputation in the local community. It was known for the superb customer service and loyalty among the customer base. Over the next several years, the company expanded to well over 200 stores across the United States. Tanner Emerson became the CEO and Thurston Wood became the President of the company. Tanglewood Organization A major concern for the company was the expansion of chains like Target and Kohl’s. These expansions have caused the leaders to dissect their HR policies and practices. “For staffing, in particular, the organization fells there absolutely must be a workforce of committed, qualified individuals who will help carry the Tanglewood philosophy into the future.” There was a comparison within the text that showed the standing of Tanglewood in regards to other chains like Dillards, J.C. Pennys, Macy’s, Target, and Wal-mart. “The financial showed that Tanglewood is a moderately sized organization with strong growth potential.” Staffing Levels 1. Acquire...

...tradeoffs posed when a company crosses national borders Ghemawat contends that to create, capture, and sustain rents in international operations firms have three strategies they can deploy at the product level to respond to distance: 1. Adaptation – seeks to boost revenues and market share by maximizing a firm’s local relevance Requires local autonomy but must trade off the gains from such decentralization against the costs of excessive heterogeneity and local subgoals 2. Aggregation – attempts to deliver economies of scale by creating regional or sometimes global operations (standardizing the product or service offering and grouping together the development and production processes) Requires global coordination but must trade off the efficiency gains of standardization and scale or scope economies against costs of always being perceived as an outsider or cost minimizer 3. Arbitrage – the exploitation of differences between national or regional markets, often by locating separate parts of the supply chain in different places Requires flexibility and the management of a complex network of internal and external relationships for continuous learning, but must trade off benefits from such dynamism against costs of being perceived as fickle, rootless partner or citizen Firms can learn to more efficiently design and implement mix of adaptation, aggregation, and arbitrage strategies over time Strategies can evolve over time from aggregation to adaptation to arbitrage Over time...

...talent, core or flexible workforce: When Tanglewood is deciding whether to acquire or develop new talent, they first must take a look at what positions need to be filled. Focusing on the entry level positions such as store associates or cashiers, shelf stockers should be filled with developing talent, because these positions are relevantly the easiest to train. Bringing employees who have a great deal of experience and talent to these entry level positions may bring with them bad habits they acquired from previous employers and may be hard to brake. Employees with no working experience in the retail business would be a good opportunity for Tanglewood to introduce Tanglewood’s philosophy. The higher positions such as store manager, regional manager and assistant managers should be filled with acquiring talent, because these positions require experience and are not easily trainable, and would require a lot of time and money to train. Tanglewood should focus on Core Workforce during the selection of employees. Tanglewood’s business is based on a “team” philosophy that will be easily accomplished through core workforce. It will be difficult to maintain a cohesive employee and company...

For applied topics, like staffing, learning how concepts are applied in the world of work also allow us see how the course is relevant to our own lives. The use of these cases will serve as a bridge between the major themes in the textbook Staffing Organizations and the problems faced by managers on a daily basis. The Tanglewood case is closely intertwined with textbook concepts. Most assignments in the case require reference to specific tables and examples in the book. After completing these cases, you will be much more able to understand and apply the material in the textbook. With this in mind, it should be noted that the cases are designed to correspond with the types of information found in work environments. This means that for many important decisions, the right answers will not always be easy to detect...
