How to gain A new habit by using 10 minutes for 40 days ?

I need the very recently resources .

10 pages.

Experts in Time management are Preferred .

. 

 Must post first.

Topic: Where is the best place for you in the VMI team?

Virginia Meats has hired you to take one of four open managerial positions. During this period of your onboarding into the company, Mr. Chinn, the CEO, is assessing the position for which you will bring the greatest strengths. He has asked HR to provide him with a series of tests that will aid him in assessing your placement.  A short job description for each of the open positions is also provided. Since you are familiar with these positions and their roles from your orientation, you realize these tests will not only tell Chinn the job for which you are best suited, but also will enlighten you as well. This self-knowledge may give you a better idea of your fittedness and likelihood of gaining the position.

Directions: 

1. By FRIDAY, complete the following:

• See the steps set out below and complete the table and explanation of the results.
• You must use course material to support your responses and APA in-text citations with a reference list.

2. THROUGHOUT the week, complete the following:

• Respond to your classmates three or more days throughout the week. Remember you are trying to develop the best answers possible to the questions. Your classmates are doing the same so read the posts carefully looking for the best ideas being presented.  The goal is that by the end of the week the class will come to some consensus as to the best answers giving you the chance to submit the best ideas in the final post.
• You must use course material to support your responses but you do not need to use APA in the brainstorming discussion with the exception of Friday’s initial first impression post.
• Participation is worth 2.5 points each week (20% of the final grade). Participation must be reflected in the final post so grades will be affected by the content portion of the post if participation is not shown. Therefore, it is important to get in the class often and with the idea of improving your initial post with the discussion so that the final grade will be the best you can deliver.

3. FINAL POST, complete the following:

• Attach your final post in the classroom by Monday at 11:59 p.m. ET.
• The final post must reflect the brainstorming activities and should be different than your Friday initial post.
• The final post must include a variety of sources from the class material as well as the use of scenario or case study facts where appropriate.
• It must USE APA in-text citations and reference list.

Steps for Completion of the Assignment:

Step 1. Below you will find the instruction “Skill Assessment Chart & Quiz Links”. Take all of the quizzes found in the list.

Step 2. You will report your results by creating a Word document and include this table. You will identify the type of quiz, list all component scores and then answer the implication questions. These questions are found in the “Skill Assessment Chart & Quiz Links” instruction. Do not copy or summarize from the explanations given by the test website. Instead, with that explanation in mind as it pertains to your own traits and behaviors, answer the questions concisely.

Type of Quiz

Quiz Taken and Results

(list all components)

Implication Question Answers

Step 3. In your report, this table will be followed by a 2-page summary (singled spaced) in which you explain your results and select the position or positions for which you will be the best fit.

The final report should be organized as follows:

1. a brief introduction naming the position for which you are applying
2. the completed table
3. a discussion of quiz results that explains ‘you’ by integrating the results with our knowledge base (learning materials) from weeks 1-3, primarily week 3 readings. Rather than rehashing from the test websites or your answers in the table, you will be demonstrating your understanding of the meaning of these results as explained by our theories and concepts in required readings.
4. the analysis of the job for which you are applying. Address the job or jobs that best fit you and/or the one you want and your reasons for the selection. In that discourse, you will explain how the test results indicate your fittedness for the role. Our required readings will provide the theories for you to prove your understanding of trait-related behaviors. In this write-up, it should also be clear how you will affect the two types of performance and affective commitment of the organization.

Either in the job analysis or a final conclusion, address the effectiveness of your selection for the organization.

Human–Machine Warehouse Workforce

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), the warehousing and storage workforce has been steadily growing since 1990. It has nearly tripled since 1990. Occupations included in the calculations: truck and tractor operators, material movers, clerks, and managers.

Average earnings and hours for production and nonsupervisory employees for October 2019 was $18.65 based on a 40-hour workweek with the vast majority working in the private sector. The BLS also updates statistics on work-related fatalities, injuries, and illnesses and compares them with other industries. Looking beyond the numbers, there is a growing literature that predicts worker displacement and management issues of frontline employees including technology shifts and workplace safety.

Discussing the changing landscape of warehouses/distribution centers is not complete without studying people working on the floor. Using this week’s background readings as a foundation, add at least one other recent resource as support. For your post focusing on the warehouse labor force:

• Explain the type of training warehouse/distribution center workers will need in order to be successful in their jobs.
• Based on research, provide information on the two most important human resource issues facing warehousing.
• Using the resource beyond this week’s readings, provide a real-world example of a company (other than Amazon) that is finding success with its warehouse personnel as automation is added. (The article should be less than three years old. Challenge yourself to find a newer source since some of the issues faced three years ago have been addressed.)

You are the president of XYZ Manufacturing company. You have recently learned about the following issue:

A month ago, the company’s general manager (GM) told one of the line managers to produce an extra 15,000 units of a product so that there would be inventory in stock for the next time the item is ordered. Last week, the GM scolded the line manager for having 15,000 units of the item in stock. The GM told the line manager that producing excess inventory costs the company money and should never be done. The GM then puts the line manager on a performance plan. This is not the first time you have heard about the GM telling an employee to do one thing only to criticize him or her for doing it later.

This employee feels very frustrated by this, but does not want to make a formal complaint because she has seen other employees lose their jobs or get demoted for questioning the GM.

Create an outline that proposes a leadership solution to this issue. The outline should address the following:

• How      the culture of the organization contributed to this issue
• How      the structure of the organization contributed to this issue
• A      plan to change organizational culture while maintaining the current      structure of the organization
• A      coaching plan to help the general manager change this behavior and improve      his leadership skills

Submitting your assignment in APA format means, at a minimum, you will need the following:

• Title      page: Remember the running head. The title      should be in all capitals.
• Length: 5      pages
• Abstract: This      is a summary of your paper, not an introduction. Begin writing in third      person.
• Body: This      begins on the page following the title page and abstract page and must be      double-spaced (be careful not to triple- or quadruple-space between      paragraphs). The typeface should be 12-pt. Times Roman or 12-pt. Courier      in regular black type. Do not use color, bold type, or italics, except as      required for APA-level headings and references. The deliverable length of      the body of your paper for this assignment is 5 pages. In-body academic      citations to support your decisions and analysis are required. A variety      of academic sources is encouraged.
• Reference      page: References that align with your      in-body academic sources are listed on the final page of your paper. The      references must be in APA format using appropriate spacing, hanging      indent, italics, and uppercase and lowercase usage as appropriate for the      type of resource used. Remember, the Reference page is not a bibliography      but a further listing of the abbreviated in-body citations used in the      paper. Every referenced item must have a corresponding in-body citation.

Thinking about a job situation, where short-term (or short-sighted) thinking has effectively turned into strategic thinking or strategic management to achieve the best result. In this sense, you can see how the system operates and the situation you encountered or read about. Short-term fixes and methods are not necessarily the right solution in the longer term.

write An overview of what you have done to turn short-term thought into strategic thinking and management and what you will have to do to get others to follow your lead in this change of thought and management. What challenges do you foresee?
