Training and development prompts change within an organization. The goal of training is to identify areas for improvement and to develop growth opportunities that support the employees in their professional career.

For this assignment, you are required to develop a small training exercise in the form of a PowerPoint presentation. Review previous needs assessments and training observations conducted at your workplace to help identify one area for improvement that would benefit your organization. This training exercise does not need to be implemented but should include at least one deliverable that you could use during the training exercise. As you are reviewing your organization, consider employee engagement, systems and procedures, communication, resources, succession planning, and the culture within the organization. These are suggestions for possible areas that could benefit from a training exercise.

Create an 8-10 slide PowerPoint presentation of your training exercise, with speaker notes, and include the following:

• What are the overall goals for the training or the benefit to the selected organization?
• What are two specific objectives for the training exercise?
• What processes or procedures will change after the training has been completed?
• Describe the strategies or actions involved in the training exercise to meet the established goals and objectives. What is the expected employee performance or application after the training? How will the strategies drive successful business results and improve employee performance?
• How will the organization provide support to the current employees receiving this training? To new employees? How will the effectiveness of the training exercise be measured to confirm the anticipated improvement of employee performance?

While APA style format is not required for the body of this assignment, solid academic writing is expected, and in-text citations and references should be presented using documentation guidelines, which can be found in the APA Style Guide, located in the Student Success Center.

This assignment uses a rubric. Review the rubric prior to beginning the assignment to become familiar with the expectations for successful completion.

In a well-formatted, highly-detailed research paper, address the need to contingency planning, ensuring to address the following items:

(1) Benefits of scenario events/planning.
(2) Questions to consider when implementing scenario planning.
(3) The common types of scenario planning.

Prof. Guidelines 

 Your paper should meet the following requirements:

• Be approximately five pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page. (Remember, APA is double spaced)

Risk management is one of the most important components in empowering an organization to achieve its ultimate vision. With proper risk management culture and knowledge, team members will be “speaking” the same language, and they will leverage common analytical abilities to identify and mitigate potential risks as well as exploit opportunities in a timely fashion. In order to consolidate efforts, the existence of an integrated framework is crucial. 

This is why an ERM is necessary to the fulfillment of any organization’s goals and objectives. In your final research project for the course, your task is to write a 7-10 page paper discussing the following concepts:

Introduction – What is an ERM?

Why Should an Organization Implement an ERM Application?

What are some Key Challenges and Solutions to Implementing an ERM?

What is Important for an Effective ERM?

Discuss at least one real organization that has been effective with implementing an ERM framework/application.

Conclusion – Final thoughts/future research/recommendation

The paper needs to be approximately 7-10 pages long, including both a title page and a references page (for a total of 9-12 pages). Be sure to use proper APA formatting and citations to avoid plagiarism.

Your paper should meet the following requirements:

Be approximately seven to ten pages in length, not including the required cover page and reference page.

Follow APA7 guidelines. Your paper should include an introduction, a body with fully developed content, and a conclusion.

Support your answers with the readings from the course, the course textbook, and at least FIVE scholarly journal articles to support your positions, claims, and observations, in addition to your textbook. 

Be clearly and well-written, concise, and logical, using excellent grammar and style techniques. You are being graded in part on the quality of your writing.

 Instructions: Ethnography Paper  ASSIGNMENT

In an original paper of at least 1,500 words , write an ethnography of a subculture, group, or community related to your theme.  A group constitutes more than two individuals.  This is largely an informative paper; the goal of the ethnography is to present observations, information, and research on the subculture as a means for educating your audience about the subculture. 

 Ultimately, an ethnography should answer this question:  What does studying this group of individuals reveal about group dynamics, culture, and/or human behavior? Like a documentary film, an ethnography tells the story of a group of people.  You may choose an online subculture or an on-campus/community subculture, but the subculture must be a group of individuals whom you can observe and study this semester.  Ethnography is concerned with humans and human behavior.   An ethnography is similar to telling a story; like a documentary film, and ethnography will attempt to provide a “behind the scenes” look at a group of individuals.  Like a story, an ethnography often has a setting (like a workplace, for example) and characters (the real people comprising the group).  Consider the sample Ethnography papers posted in Canvas as examples of this type of writing.

GOALS OF THE ASSIGNMENT  

1.  Analyze an assignment prompt and develop a strategy for responding to the prompt;  

2.  Craft an effective thesis statement that provides focus for an academic paper; 

 3.  Use writing to show evidence of critical thinking; 

 4.  Use ethical field research and firsthand observation methods to gather information;  

5.  Express intellectually stimulating ideas using clear, grammatically correct prose; 6.  Practice using first-person point-of-view in an objective, unbiased manner.

Your paper should include:  

1.   An introductory paragraph and thesis statement.  The introduction should identify the subculture you are investigating.  The thesis statement should focus the paper and indicate, in a single sentence, the most significant characteristics of the subculture.

 2.   Body paragraphs with topic sentences.  The body of the paper should address specific characteristics of the subculture.  You may address how the members of the subculture interact with each other, the types of discourse and language used by members of the group, the beliefs and values shared by the group, specific cultural characteristics of the group (including dress, domestic customs, daily activities, involvement with the broader community, festivals and celebrations, etc.), and the organizational structure of the group/community.  

 3.   Information based on observation and/or interviews with a member or members of the subculture. 

4.   In-text citations as needed and a correctly formatted APA References page.   

5.   A conclusion that discusses the implications of your findings and/or discusses how the study of this group relates to broader social/cultural issues. 

  6.   A correctly formatted APA title page, including a paper title.  An abstract is not required.

RESEARCH

Your final draft must cite and make reference to at least 5 credible sources. 

 At least one source must be an interview.  You may either conduct an interview yourself or use a published interview, conducted by someone else, to meet this requirement.  Your goal should be to conduct or locate an interview with a member of the group you are studying.   You are welcome to include additional sources and references as needed.  Consider field research methods described in Chapter 11 of the Palmquist textbook.
