MGT 434 Grand Canyon Week 1 Discussion 2
Strategic human resource management (HRM) has been defined as a
consistent pattern of planned human resources activities and deployments
intended to enable an organization to meet its goals. Further, strategic HRM,
also consists of many components including aligning the utilization of human
resources with the mission, vision, values, and culture of the organization, as
well as branding, competitive advantage, organizational development, diversity
management, organizational structure, and evidence-based HRM.
Using resources other than your textbook identify an organization
that successfully implemented strategic HRM initiatives. Present the
initiatives and discuss the business strategies achieved as a result of the
initiatives.
MGT 434 Grand Canyon Week 2 Discussion 1
Identify an organizational-level goal that would be incorporated
into an annual business strategy (e.g., financial performance, service,
productivity, competitive advantage, innovation.) Develop three organizational
development strategies relating to HRM you would utilize as a manager to
support this goal. Create the goals utilizing SMART (specific, measurable,
attainable, realistic, and timely) criteria, specifically identifying how the
goal will be measured using evidence-based HRM.
MGT 434 Grand Canyon Week 2 Discussion 2
Access the Scenario Generator. Create a scenario for Project 1:
Strategic HRM Proposal. The characteristics of this scenario should differ from
the characteristics in your Scenario Generator Report. Briefly compare and
contrast these characteristics with the characteristics in your Scenario
Generator Report. How would organizational strategy differ between the two
scenarios?
MGT 434 Grand Canyon Week 3 Discussion 1
Pre-employment testing can be an effective tool in the selection
of qualified candidates. Testing can include, but is not limited to the
following areas: personality, talent assessment, job task proficiency and
productivity, physical ability, drug testing, lie-detector analysis, background
checks, cognitive assessment, emotional intelligence, credit checks, computer
literacy, basic skills, and English proficiency. Select three types of
pre-employment testing and discuss the purpose, effectiveness in the selection
process, legal parameters for use of the testing, costs associated with
administration of the testing, and recommendation for the use of the testing.

The purpose of this discussion question is to share with your
classmates the nature of your Scenario Generator Report, and for you to have
the opportunity to compare ideas and understanding with your colleagues.
Attach a copy of your Scenario Generator Report.
Summarize the general characteristics of your organization.
In subsequent posts for Module 4, compare the characteristics of
your organization with that of your classmates.
MGT 434 Grand Canyon Week 4 Discussion 2
Organizations can avoid investing in training and development
activities because it is difficult to quantify the ROI (return on investment).
As a manager who has identified a need for training and development in your
organization, develop a training and development proposal to be presented to the
leadership team. Include a brief overview of different delivery methods for
training and development, expected outcomes, and potential return on
investment. Include a citation for your research.
MGT 434 Grand Canyon Week 5 Discussion 1
Access the GCU Library. Locate a current and reliable source of

Assume the role as the chair of the Recognition and Rewards
Committee for an organization of 50 employees. Prepare a recommendation from
your committee on how to allocate the $5,000 annual budget to maximize employee
engagement and motivation. (Hint: Don’t forget that non-monetary means of
recognition and rewards can be just as effective as monetary means.)

FMLA, military, personal, and sabbaticals. If the leave type is mandated by
law, discuss the employer responsibilities and benefits to the employee.
MGT 434 Grand Canyon Week 6 Discussion 2
Managers share responsibility for employee performance and have an
active role to play in the performance management cycle. Terminology that is
often used to describe the actions of a manager in the performance management
cycle include coaching, counseling, corrective action, progressive disciplinary
plan, and termination. Define each of these terms, the circumstances under
which they are utilized, and their intended purpose. You may also include a
description of the terms and processes used by your organization.
MGT 434 Grand Canyon Week 7 Discussion 1
Effective managers can successfully locate and apply relevant
human resources laws and regulations. The United States Department of Labor
website is an excellent source of reliable information.
Access the search box of the U.S. Dept. of Labor website located
at .dol.gov/”>www.dol.gov.
Choose three laws from the list below to research:
Family and Medical Leave Act (FMLA)
Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996
(HIPPA)
Consolidated Omnibus Reconciliation Act (COBRA)
Fair Labor Standards Act (FLSA)
Worker Adjustment and Retraining Notification Act (WARN)
Employment Retirement Income Security Act (ERISA)
National Labor Relations Act (NLRA)
Uniformed Services Employment and Reemployment Rights Act (USERRA)
Sarbanes-Oxley Act (see whistleblower protection provisions)
For each of your three chosen laws, provide a bulleted list of
five or six relevant facts that you believe have significance for line
managers.

Effective managers stay abreast of current HR topics.
Some relevant issues facing today’s managers include: global HRM,
labor relations, social media, whistleblower rules, e-HRM/self-service the
knowledge economy, outsourcing pros and cons, managing four different
generations in the workforce, increasing age of the workforce, employee
privacy, the glass ceiling, implications of baby boomer retirements,
immigration, social responsibility, elder care, executive pay, and alternative
work arrangements.
Select three topics from the list above (or choose other current
topics that are not included). Research each topic. For each of your three chosen
topics, provide a bulleted list of four or five relevant points that you
believe have significance for line managers.
MGT 434 Grand Canyon Week 8 Discussion 2
Three topics that I chose are: Social media, employee privacy and
alternate work arrangements. I have listed at least four bulleted points that
will help understand the topics selected.
Social Media
Can be a good marketing tool for an organization if monitored and
used for business purposes
Has caused an increased rate of employee misuse
Mobile phones make it hard to enforce social media while at work
Can help employers or labor unions communicate information to
employees
Employee Privacy
Businesses are trying to minimize legal exposure by restricting
employee privacy
Businesses limit employee privacy in an effort to increase
employee productivity
Businesses try to avoid proprietary information to be shared with
competitors or other businesses
63% of employees view online social networking on a daily basis
Alternate work arrangements
Working Families Flexibility Act of 2012 allowed employees to
request flexible work arrangements
Work schedules can include more hours with less days worked
Flexibility can increase employee morale, have less turnover, and
increase productivity with employees
Employees with flexible schedules are more satisfied and therefore
desire to stay
