Hrm/531 Week 1 Reflection

I would do this by stating that a compensation professional can be a full time employee that knows the company and what the company need, they can be cost effective, and there is a level of commitment. When discussing knowing a company, this also means knowing the customers and the competition. The compensation professional can learn who the customers are, what the needs are of the customer, and even why they actually buy or use the service. With the compensation professional being full time, the employee can do the research needed to find this information. They can also aid in the process of find the ends and out of the competition. This gives the business a competitive edge. In addition, knowing and understand the needs of the customer is the centre of a successful business. This information or knowledge, one can use

Chapter one started off with an interesting case about a married couple, who are doctors and decided to work within the same hospital. Soon after they started to work there, their marriage started to suffer and in the end they decided to get a divorce. Mr. Whittamore decided that he was going to leave the hospital and was thinking about opening his own clinic, even though it was against his contract. He thought that he would go talk to Singson and explain the situation to him and see if the contract could be overlooked and allow him to open his clinic. Singson told Whittamore that the contract would stand. Singson responds made Whittamore upset and the conflict between Singson and Whittamore started. The chapter continued talking about the approaches that people may use in order to

To meet the requirements desired by the President and Vice President of the Acme Corporation, I believe that they will only need four servers, considering it is such a small business of less than 20 people. All of the servers will be running Windows Server 2008 R2. The following servers will be: a file and printer server, an email and web server, and an SQL server.

As of next week, we will require that all employees at Semper Absum take a mandatory one-hour lunch break away from their desks. After hiring an efficiency expert, we were informed that many employees were not taking a lunch-break and instead were using work time to attend to personal matters. Statistically, employees who do not take a lunch break tend to be less productive during the rest of the day.

If you review table four and reference the savings from year one to year two you can determine the potential return on investment. The clinic did not obtain the full impact of the revenue in year one because having to account for initial cost of implement billing system that has the feature of e-statements. I used the total financial return from year one as a starting point. I did not move over the one-time costs to the second year and other one-time costs. For example, the one-time cost of the new billing system would only apply to year one. The clinic then would utilize the $208,960 savings per year going forward. The savings that I determined her would be calculated at a minimum amount for what the entire billing system would do for the clinic. The clinic has other departments that would benefit from this billing system and the new features the system has to offer. I would recommend the clinic go with this product and new workflow that I have identified.

Daniel emphasized how strict the entertainment departments budget were that I caused them to go over budget by not taking breaks and that from there on out I would be getting scheduled 28 hours a week. David changed my time sheet and added breaks on days that I did not take breaks. Daniel also stated that by the time I had replied to Davids missed time punch text that the time sheet was already sent in. I asked Daniel how this could be corrected and he told me he would have to check with HR but that I could just not clock out for 3 days. Daniel also asked me I meant by "I was doing lead work". I replied by telling him I lead my staff, performed closing lead duties; such as End of Day report, contacting guest services, reporting directly to

The board of directors met to discuss the possibility of changing our pricing and making a couple changes to the policies. The board decided to make the following changes:

"Hi Rannie, I'm analyzing the log files and noticed entry 14 was negative 42. Can you confirm if this is accurate?"

By sending mail directly or making personal calls to all the doctors, administrators, and any other relevant personnel as well as visiting them if possible, we can establish a relationship with the customers at virtually no cost. However, the expected time commitment for the product is the most important part of our marketing strategy. Firstly, we will have to determine the persons to contact at the hospitals and nursing homes. Secondly, our team will have to determine when and how often we contact the target audience. Lastly, we will need to work on our communication skills and make sure that we are striking the right tone and positively convincing them to switch to our product. The response we receive is going to be our yardstick for determining

Being one of our brightest client’s we feel that our ability to communicate with each other on a more personal basis is acceptable. Resolving an open issue, by completely terminating all female technicians over the age of 45 and replacing them with male employees under the age of 25 will not be in your best interest. Therefore, I am brining to your attention our thoughts and concerns with your conclusions on this manner.

On July 1, 2015 I purchased a large drink, a small fry, and a cheeseburger with no onions. It was around 8pm there wasn’t very many workers there at the time. I explained to the cashier the reason why I did not want any onions. I was being nice and it seemed like she was concerned. At the same time she looked as if she was upset.

“It’s a homerun when you and the customer agree on what is expected and you are able to deliver exactly that. Know that customers who take time to explain their concerns are doing you a big favor. Set up a system to learn from breakdowns. Strive to match customer demands for level of quality, pricing, and accountability” (Gray, 2017). With the new sales representative role at Best Value, I would take the advice previously mentioned. Listening to the consumer and meeting that need would be the first priority of my role and managing expectations. This would also serve as a platform for the company as well to see if Best Value is able to meet the growing needs of their consumers and revisit the services and products that are offered by them.

The 1st semester was full of challenges as a full-time student here at Mohawk College, but I am thankful that it is over. Now, I am grateful that I will be starting my 2nd semester as a Practical Nursing and is determine to succeed.

During this week, I have learned a lot from reading my classmate’s primary task responses. I the discussion that I have read, I learned some of the high risk area in the hotel of loss through theft and the security controls that are used to ensure the occurrences. In my future business I will check my entire employee’s background for felony or anything that shows if that employee haven been in any trouble before hiring, so their want surprises me. My entire employee’s will be treated fairly and with respect even if their record is clean or not. However, I will have security team keep watch on the surveillance to customer items and information succored. All the knowledge that I gain in this week will be useful for my future business to become

Overall though out this semester I have been very pleased with my team and how we get along with each other. After having a chance to reviewing my midterm peer evaluation responses I realized there were a couple areas that I need to improve on in the coming week. My two lowest scores were a 4.0 in moderating and directing team discussions (3), and a 4.0 in listening attentively to others (6). There are a few other lower ones such as a 4.3 in summaries ideas of the team (5) and a 4.3 in mediating conflicts (9). My highest score was a 4.8 in overall preforming as an efficient team member (10), and my average overall was a 4.3. I feel as though these scores are accurate evaluations of my performance and while there are some areas that need improvement
