Questions
1. Many organizations are changing the focus of Human Resources, even going so far as to change
the name of the function. In the middle part of last century, the term Human Resource
Management started to replace the notion of the Personnel Department. Now, the terms are
being rebranded again to titles such as the following: Vice President of People; Head of
Associate Experience, Chief Experience Officer; Chief Talent Officer or even Chief Happiness
Officer. What do these title changes say about the direction of Human Resources? Has the
focus of what HR does changed or have we merely changed the wording? Provide sources to
reinforce your opinion.
2. It is said that employee engagement is a critical factor in the long term success of an
organization. In our readings we covered some important benefits of employee engagement.
Answer the following questions:
i. Why is employee engagement so important for an organization? Name some
benefits to having engaged employees and provide your reasoning as to why
this is important. Provide outside sources to support your choice of benefits to
having engaged employees.
ii. Is employee engagement important in all types of organizations or might it be
more important to some than others? Explain your answer and provide
reference-supported justification.
iii. What is HRs role in creating & fostering employee engagement?
3. Determining proper compensation is an important component of an organizations reward
structure. Traditionally, compensation determination involved getting an accurate idea of a
jobs duties and requirements. Outline the steps needed to do this in an organization and why
this is important. Make sure you use outside sources to back up yourpoints.
4. Often, when talking about the concept of Equal Pay critics cite statistics that indicate that
women earn (approximately) $.79 for every dollar a man makes. Look into this further by
looking at the concept of adjusted versus unadjusted pay gap analysis. Would that make a
difference in how we look at the concept of pay differences between genders? Look at
external sources to support your opinion.
5. This question has two parts.
What do we mean by Diversity in the workplace? A complete definition is required.
Provide an example of a company committed to Diversity. What are they doing that
proves that this is an important initiative for them and, most importantly, why do they
feel it is important? List the major business reasons for their choice. Use outside
research to substantiate your conclusions
