When building a new organization or when an organization experiences dramatic growth, leaders must determine the structure and culture of the organization. Although the culture will evolve over time and each individual that joins the new organization will leave some imprint on the culture, it is the leaders’ responsibility to define how the organization will look and how individuals will behave.

Individual Portion (800–1,000 words)

Prepare a draft document that defines the new organization and addresses the following considerations:

• What type of structure will be best suited to a multinational Internet retailer? Why?
• How would you recommend building a culture that was inclusive of diverse cultures and accommodates highly creative technical staff?
• How would you measure the success of your organizational design in structure and culture?

Please add your file.

Group Portion (3–5 slides with speaker notes of 100–150 words per slide)

Review your team members’ files and discuss the following in your small group:

• How would you build teams across a geographically diverse organization?
• How would you build a consensus discussion on the values of such an organization?

Develop a short presentation of 3–5 slides with speaker notes of 100–150 words per slide that reflects the consensus of your group.

 

 

Assignment 2: Intake Interview Analysis

By Wednesday, December 2, 2015 respond to the assignment presented below.

As we have discussed, interviewing skills can be used in a wide variety of settings. Let us now turn our focus to how those skills may be applied.  Think of a career you are interested in pursuing after you complete your degree. If you are not certain about what type of career you may pursue, think about a career you would like to learn more about such as marriage and family therapist, school counselor, or human resource manager. You can also visit: http://www.bls.gov/oco/, where you can view the Occupational Handbook in order to get information about different career choices.

With your career choice in mind, think of a social service agency, healthcare agency, business, educational institution, or government agency that you would potentially be employed at that could make use of a counseling /clinical interview. In a 2-3 page paper, describe the organization you selected and then discuss the value and advantages of an intake interview for the organization. What situation would it be used in? Why would an intake or counseling interview be a good choice for this organization? What ethical issues may arise in this specific situation and how could they be addressed? Be sure to use APA formatting, and address each topic listed above and, as appropriate, cite the online course, the textbook, and other credible, scholarly sources to substantiate the points you are making.

Submit your assignment to the M4: Assignment 2 Dropbox.

The firm manufactures a global positioning system (GPS) that sells for $2,000, with cost of goods sold (hardware 30% and software 70%) of 55% of sales. Compared to the United States, China offers a 7% cost reduction in electronics manufacturing hardware and a 45% reduction in software programming. India offers a 32% reduction in software programming costs. So far, you have been unable to determine whether India has the facilities to undertake the hardware manufacturing. The firm has to invest $300 million. As far as China is concerned, you can send hardware and software manufacturing to China or India.

You have been asked to lead a team to study and create a report for the executive team on both countries as business opportunities. Study both China and India to make your calculations and recommendations as follows.
