question-

 Discuss the adverse impact of stereotyping in the workplace. Give detailed examples of various HR functions where stereotyping may occur. Examine the consequences of stereotyping as they relate to an employer’s exposure to liability. 

students response

 

Stereotyping is often a gateway to harassment and discrimination, but even if it does not progress to those extents, it is a danger to the functionality of any workplace. It creates tensions and barrier between employees and management and limits the potential of an organization’s employees.

Stereotyping can occur in virtually any HR function. It can happen in recruiting by choosing which collage fair to attend based on diversity demographics. It can happen in workplace safety by designing trainings for younger audiences, assuming they are more careless or less knowledgeable. Likewise, stereotyping can happen in other training and development by targeting specific groups of people while leaving others out because of a stereotype that a particular group has less knowledge, talent, or skill. Stereotyping can present itself while resolving workplace conflicts or even designing benefit packages by relying on generalizations of people instead of getting to the root of the problem or finding out what is most important to individual employees.

The bottom line is that stereotyping is a slippery slope that increases an employer’s liability. The more instances of stereotyping, the harder it becomes to prove that the employer is acting without bias or discrimination.

System Development Life Cycle: Phases IV & V – Implementation and Maintenance

  

Overview

With the justification of an HRIS solidified, you need to show  your client how you will implement the HRIS using one of the change  models discussed in our text. You will also need to explain and justify  cost associated with implementation via a cost benefit analysis. You  want to ensure the system is properly maintained and evaluated for  continuous improvement. Therefore, you will include a maintenance and  evaluation plan in your proposal. 

Instructions 

Write a 3–4 page proposal, in which you do the following: 

Change Management
  1. Discuss the various reasons system implementation fails.  Compare and contrast various change models. Then select a change model  to use during system implementation. Provide details of how you will use  the change model, and justify why you selected one model over the other  models. Explain the various steps that should be included to ensure the  change model is effective. 
HRIS Implementation
  1. Discuss the activities that are necessary prior to the system  going live, and provide a timeline for these activities. Specify which  change management team member will be responsible for each activity, and  explain their role.    
Cost Benefit Analysis
  1. Create a cost benefit analysis matrix for the HRIS vendor you  chose during Phase III: Design. Analyze the cost justification  strategies that you will use to justify the cost of the HRIS, including  data that identify each benefit and cost component examined, estimates  of the dollar amount for each, estimates on when the organization will  incur each cost and receive each benefit, and documentation justifying  each decision you made in listing these benefits. 
Maintenance
  1. Discuss how you will ensure the system is properly maintained and evaluated for continuous improvement.   
Resources
  1. Use at least three quality academic resources in this  assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as  academic resources.

Introduction:

Congratulations! You have just been hired as the chief trainer for a large financial consulting operation headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. This is a company that flourishes on the basis of the fact that other companies need help to get their finances “squared away.” The company wants to develop and retain internal folks for major growth opportunities. They understand that personal growth, development, promotion, and recognition are the keys to a highly efficient and effective workforce. Therefore, the owner decided to implement a twelve-month training opportunity for anyone interested in personal growth, development, promotion, and recognition.

The owner has decided the name of the program to be “The GAP Endeavor,” which stands for growth, advancement, and performance. Anyone can become a financial advisor who, prior to training, lacks the hands-on experience to ensure success of the person and company. Aspiring financial planners participate in both online and face-to-face learning during the first ten weeks of the program. In the classroom, the instructors provide knowledge about finance, financial products, and selling. Also, to enhance selling skills and customer service, learners engage in role-plays. The next nine months of the program include mentoring and on-the-job experiences. Learners work with experienced financial planners in their practices, providing real and timely advice to clients. During these nine months, the learners are provided with on-the-job coaching, professional development, and complete compliance training.

After successfully completing the program, the learners achieve the status that allows them to start their new venture and join one of the company’s personal financial practices. The owner has asked you to provide information regarding determining the success of The GAP Endeavor.

Tasks:

  • Analyze why training should be evaluated.
  • Describe the evaluation process and explain what it should look like for this effort.
  • Analyze the outcomes of the evaluation process and include how the data should be collected.
  • Explain which evaluation design the evaluation process should use.

To support your work, use your course and textbook readings and also use the South University Online Library. As in all assignments, cite your sources in your work and provide references for the citations in APA format.

Submission Details:

  • Create a 3–4-page Microsoft Word document.
