Hrm/531 Week 2 Individual Reflection Journal

we take the time to listen to our employees regarding their concerns and needs for performing their jobs. We talk with each employee individually about the conflicts they may have with other employees by rectifying conflicts right away by coming up with viable solutions. we also try to Encourage us employees to make recommendations that may help increase company's performance and

The first thing I do on Monday morning is to check my voice mail and e-mail, then I would prioritize my activities for the week such as organizing department brochures, reviewing and distributing mails, scheduling appointments, assisting students with student self service calls and emails, preparing student reports, assisting registration, updating and reviewing student

1) Based on this research and analysis, how did your perspectives change, if any? Explain your rationale whether your views changed or remained the same.

carefully planned out and considered, the total closure or failure of the organization could be at hand in the near future. In our modern age, employers know that salary is not the only factor that should be considered and that salary alone will not lead to better or more highly profitable workers alone. This is why compensation planning is important and why pay should have some connection between performance and compensation. This is why the human resources department should consider many monetary and non-monetary factors when considering how to properly compensate and motivate employees (Dessler, 2013).

My phone helps with reminding me to stay on schedule while I have a weekly calendar on my desk that reminds me of everything I have to do during said week. For my classwork, I look at what I have to accomplish in advance so I can adjust my schedule to the amount of work that week. I take the most urgent stuff and make that my priority before estimating how long each assignment will take. Most days, I give myself extra time so I do not feel rushed in completing an assignment. Before beginning my assignments, I read (or in some cases reread) the necessary material. Occasionally, I will research certain topics in order to a more comprehensive understanding and knowledge of the material.

There are many acts that help the employees within the workforce. The acts we will be discussing are as follows: Americans with Disabilities Act, Age Discrimination in Employment act, Occupational Safety and Health Act, Family Medical Leave Act, and Fair Labor Standards Act. We will also be discussing harassment, diversity, and grievances.

I learned most from this presentation and project is that there would be a huge market for UBERLIVE. What I learned most from this course that to be a good sales person you must be adaptable. No two people are the same which makes it imperative that the strategy is chosen that meets the needs of the consumer you are selling to. I would discuss the course material more in depth with my team. Having more in-depth conversations helps you to understand team member’s perspective on the course material. It also showcases the strengths of each member which is useful when collaborating. My suggestions for the project is to choose a project that can be applied to the course material and utilizes the strengths of the team

Thus far we have largely been focusing on the logistics and bureaucratic aspects of preparing to begin research. Professor Barwick, Aashwin, Akrit, Prawesh and I met to discuss when our schedules align for collaborative work. We determined that Thursday afternoons would best suit the majority of us for working in the labs, and that we would all meet at a different point in the week--likely Monday mornings--to discuss our progress. During that meeting, we also visited the lab spaces again and discussed what each area would be used for.

Reflection: Think about what type of portfolio you desire. Do not rush at this step because the more time you spend at this first step, the easier your job will be to effectively complete. Questions like: Is my portfolio for a potential employer?; Is my portfolio for my family to view?; or Is my portfolio for acceptance in an educational institution? are probing enough to help you to zoom in on what you want to accomplish. Once the vision of your audience is firmly established, you will have a mission statement.

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

I reside in the state of Pennsylvania and I am surrounded by farmlands, and the old fashioned people know as the amish. I am currently employed at a retirement community as a waiter, and I just recently put an application in at buffalo wild wings. I am pursuing a degree in accounting. A few hobbies are archery, knife collecting, and making things, I enjoy working with my hands, a few weeks back I actually made a captain America shield replica out of a street sign. Something I’d like to take away from this course would be to better develop my own personal opinion on things, and to rely more on my thought process instead of the

I had similar challenges. I also had problems finding research on the problem I am addressing, not only had difficulties on finding peer reviewed articles, but I did not find anything relate to my question at ACE library. Likely, my son is going to San Diego State University and I was successful. I am a physical education teacher, and students usually do not like to run the mile even when they are capable, so I think part of the problem is that the students are not motivated. On my research I am trying to prove that if the students take their heart rate before and after the mile will increase their motivation and as result improve their mile time. Most the research I found was about checking heart rate as a way to show exercise intensity

During our return demonstration, we all felt like we needed to look to our instructor for guidance in what we should do. The reason for this was because we all lacked the confidence to feel like we knew what we were doing. If I could do it again, I would have liked to have been more knowledgeable about the scenario so that I could be more confident.

Is causing parents pain part of the process of growing up, or is it avoidable? It is my belief from my personal observation and experience that this is inevitable. Parents, or good parents there of, try to give their children ‘the best’. Most people wish to pass on their knowledge and experience to their offspring in hopes that they in turn will do better than they had. In part, this resonates with the child as they too wish to excel in life, pushing the boundaries, exploring their potential, but avoiding as many hardships as they possibly can. However, many factors do not align in the way that this is put into action from both parties. Your child is not going to be exactly like you, they have their own unique experiences and

My goal for the behavior change journal is to start detaching from my phone a little more than I have been able to in the past. I want to be able to control my phone instead of having my phone control me. I feel that this would be greatly beneficial for me because trying to get stuff done has become difficult due to the distraction of my phone. In addition to being distracted from my everyday tasks, being so worried about what is happening on my phone takes away from my time spent with the people I am surrounded by.
