Central Georgia Technical College HRM Failure & Organizational Issue Paper

Reading Time: 2 minutes

Note: Do not use a scholarly or popular article that discusses how to improve an HR function but rather find a news story that allows you to identify and recommend improvement. For example, an article from HR Magazine or CareerBuilder that discusses how to reduce turnover would not be appropriate. Instead, a news story about Lyft’s high turnover last quarter is a better choice because it requires you to be the examiner and analyst.Required Elements Discuss:

  •  the gap between what actually happened and the expected HRM principle or best practice.
  •  the contributing factors and/or reasons you think the situation occurred.
  •  the steps you would take to prevent this occurring in the future.Be sure to clearly address these three elements and in your discussion, use your textbook as support for your argument and/or recommendation.Use any part of your textbook readings for support and include at least two citations within the body of your paper, identifying the specific principle/concept(s). List the reference(s) at the end of your paper. Since this paper is short, a separate reference page is not required—simply list the reference as the last line(s) of your paper.Submit the article as a separate attachment with your paper. FormatAPA style essay writing, double-spaced, 12-point, Times New Roman font, title page, 600-word minimum (not including title page, reference or article). Avoid writing in the first person.You should have an indented paragraph with subheading for each bulleted element listed above. Subheadings focus your writing, tell readers what your paragraph is about and use a key word from the instructions. Some suggestions are: HRM Principle, Contributing Factors, Recommendations.GradingI am looking to see how well you apply and synthesize what you are learning with your chosen news story/issue. Your opinion (and mine) is not as important as your ability to apply what the experts have said to the problem.
