    You recognize and fix issues before they become problems. You are reacting and being proactive.

    what strategy dose jefferson use to organize his list of grievances in The Declaration of Independence?

    Posted by admin on March 9th, 2010 and filed under organization strategy | 2 Comments »

    For example,time order,order of severity,or order of importance and why do you think he chose this organization?

    Because Madison told him to?
    This can’t be a homework question because the premise doesn’t even exist. Thomas Jefferson wrote the Declaration, with the help of at least 40 governors, representatives, and secretaries.

    Should Fox News or some other news agency investigate the editor of the LA Times and the organization itself?

    Posted by admin on March 7th, 2010 and filed under organization strategy | 9 Comments »

    This is a popular democrat strategy so maybe they should get a taste of their own medicine. Investigate the personal life of the editor of the LA Times and investigate any other top executives in this organization.

    Well, it doesn’t have to be Fox, but at least someone!

    Also – thank God for Fox to counter all of the other stations sucking up to B. H. O.

    I totally agree! FoxNews and other fair media outlets (which are few and far between, considering most are liberal) should definitely dig into the LA Times organization! They also should keep pressing the issue that the LA Times release that video! Americans NEED TO KNOW and have EVERY RIGHT to see what that video is all about! Below is a link that you’ll find VERY interesting! It talks about Obama’s ties with such questionable people such as terrorists! Be advised, though, that the first link in the article doesn’t work (surprise, surprise! After clicking on it, a message came up saying ‘…."removed by user" – again, NO surprise there!). The other links DO work and the shed ALOT of light on Obama’s shady dealings and company he associates with! I STRONGLY suggest you read it AND pass it around!

    It seems quite odd to me that this isn’t the first time something has come up about Obama and his shady affiliations that has been covered up or the media – and I’m sure it won’t be the last time either!

    Columbia University School of Nursing – Part 5 – Advanced Practice Nursing Care – Onebridge

    Posted by admin on March 6th, 2010 and filed under organization strategy | No Comments »

    http://www.sybase.com

    The Columbia University School of Nursing uses Sybase’s Onebridge iAnywhere because it not a stand alone application and it supports advanced practice nursing. They wanted to have a model by which they had an architecture that would allow them to synchronize students data and be able to aggregate them over time.

    Weve been excited about the project from the very beginning and the documentation alone has allowed us to really look at the impact that our students are making in the lives of the persons that they serve. We see the type of teaching, counseling, and the type of referrals that they are doing for these types of patients. It is really letting us see the impact that our students are having in these people’s lives. If we had used an application that was designed specifically for physicians rather than nurse practitioners, we wouldnt be able to capture this teaching in counseling element which is so central to advanced practice nursing care. When we show people our application and professional presentations, so many people ask to buy the software. I always say – it’s not a product, it’s a way of life. What I mean by that is – for our projects such as ours to be successful it needs support at multiple levels. The organization has to believe in the power of these tools to be able to say – yes, this is going to be a part of our organizational strategy. Our students are going to graduate with informatics competencies. Theyre going to be required to use this tool as part of their clinical education at the Columbia University School of Nursing.
    One of the reasons we went the particular route we did in terms of working with Onebridge now iAnywhere was many of the applications we looked at were stand alone applications. One of the reasons it was very important for us to build was not only so we had an application that supported advanced practice nursing but we wanted to have a model by which we had an architecture that would allow us to synchronize the students data and to be able to aggregate them over time. Onebridge offered us that particular solution. We know in other types of applications that were out there, people were nicely entering their data into a standalone device that they could look at over time and was useful to them in keeping track of that data. But from our perspective since we really came from the purpose of wanting to improve clinical decision making over time and wanting to allow the students not only to critically examine their own practice but to have the faculty be able to monitor an individual students practices or practices of a group of students, it was very important to us that we had an architecture that supported the aggregation.

    strategy formulation are essential to all organizations whether small or big or profit or non-profit.

    Why Should the Staff know the strategy?

    Posted by admin on March 1st, 2010 and filed under organization strategy | 4 Comments »

    Why Should everybody in the organization know the overall strategy?

    The company strategy is generally set at a high level and only tells you the destination of where the company is going

    It is the managers and staff that will work out the directions and decide what paths to take and what milestones will be along the way

    If the staff are not aware of the strategy , they have no sense of purpose to what they are doing or how they can contribute to the bigger picture.

    Everyone wants to feel a part of the bigger picture to be truly engaged.

    Last and certainly not least – employees -regardless of position of not stupid and should be treated like valued and intelligent employees who can participate in the building of a great company

    Which is the best strategy from the given two?

    Posted by admin on February 27th, 2010 and filed under organization strategy | 1 Comment »

    Company ABC has started overseas operation and wants to become a Global company. They have started focusing on more comprehensive objectives and policies. The overall objective of the organization is to promote a global image and international brand development. HR executives are directed to make some policies and arrangements for achieving the above mentioned objectives. By this growth strategy they have to develop teams and hire some professionals and supporting staff. Now they have two ways; one is to hire people from the head office and appoint them overseas or to hire local people of that country where they are operating. Both of options may have some benefits and drawbacks. But there will be only one strategy which this organization can adopt
    Which is the best strategy from the given two?
    2. What is the rationale of choosing this strategy?

    1. Which is the best strategy from the given two?

    The Internal Recruitment is the most favorite source of candidates in the stable and developed companies. The Internal Recruitment needs a strong support from other HR Processes, because the unmanaged internal recruitment process can lead to disappointed managers and employees in the organization. The Succession Planning and strong and consistent Performance Management are needed to ensure the success of the internal recruitment.
    The internal recruitment can offer the chance to change the job position to anyone in the organization, but the efficient internal recruitment process needs a strong help from other processes to provide managers with the additional information to work with. In case of the unknown additional information, the internal recruitment process cannot offer much of the value added. The internal job candidate should be known to the organization and the HRM Function should provide the hiring manager with the information about the background information.

    2. What is the rationale of choosing this strategy?

    The internal recruitment process has to be driven by strict and agreed HR Rules and HR Policies as the unclear rules for the process can bring a lot of tension inside the organization as the best employees can be easily stolen among different units and different managers. This issue looks pretty simple to solve, but the reality can bring difficult issues and conflicts among the management team and can affect the performance of the organization hardly.

    Internal recruitment

    Advantages

    * Lower cost, because not paying external agency to recruit for you
    * May improve morale of existing staff
    * Recognition and reward of the good performance of internal staff
    * Reinforces & supports the company’s succession planning strategies
    * Internal staff are a ‘known’ quantity with existing information available about their skills

    Rational recruitment strategy.

    • Define the situation/decision to be made
    • Identify the important criteria for the process and the result
    • Consider all possible solutions
    • Calculate the consequences of these solutions versus the likelihood of satisfying the criteria
    • Choose the best option
    1. So first we define the mission as it is (recruitment).
    2. Then we recognize the area importance and witch is the best process we can use for hiring the people.
    3. then we allocate the alternative recording to the recruitment
    4. Make a plan for performing step by step this process.
    5. and the end of rational recruitment we must consider all possible solution
