Assignment Task
Worth 60 % of the overall module grade.
Task 1: Formal report answering the scenario below;
"In recent times, the HR department in an organisation you have worked for, working with or intend to work for has been in the news for their poor attempt to add value to the organisation`s success; they have been found wanting of not hiring the right people and providing training to staffs to adapt to changing times. Societal changes, technology trends and globalisation effects have been identified as broad factors the HR department could not deal with effectively."
With the above scenario in mind:
Write a formal report to the senior executive highlighting the specific people management issues (around these aforementioned factors) in the workplace and suggest contemporary people management practices the HR department can adopt and their respective implications.
