Ethics Issue – A large financial services organization is thinking of adopting a new staffing strategy for entry into its management training program. The program will provide the trainees all the knowledge and skills they need for their initial job assignment after training. So the organization has decided to do college recruiting at the end of the recruiting season, hiring those who have not been fortunate enough to receive any job offers, paying them a salary of 10% below market, and providing no other inducements such as a hiring bonus or relocation assistance. The organization figures this strategy and employee value proposition will yield a higher percentage of offers accepted, low cost per hire, and considerable labor cost savings due to below market salaries. Evaluate this strategy from an ethical perspective.

APA format. Use both book and outside references

construct a 5-page argumentative research paper, complete with an annotated bibliography of sources used

INFO:

Requirements: 5 pages, double spaced, 12 pt Times New Roman font, MLA page numbering and heading, title, 5 sources on the annotated bibliography page

Set-Up: Arguing about a concept in academia can be a challenge. Research is necessary in order to make sure that your readers HEAR you. The goal for any academic argument is to be HEARD, not to “win” or make more sense than the opposition. It also requires you, the author, to recognize the opposition to your argument.

Activity: Students will construct a 5-page argumentative research paper, complete with an annotated bibliography of sources used

Students will take a stance either agreeing or disagreeing with the chosen topic and lay out their claim and evidence and counterarguments throughout the paper.

Pointers:

1) Do not “list” citations within the text. Piling quotes on top of each other just shows me that you can pick quotes. I am more interested in how you USE citations and quotes to support your claim. REMEMBER, this is YOUR claim, NOT THE SOURCES’ CLAIM.

2) Your counterargument is NOT 2 sentences and then move on. You should be very familiar with the counter against your claim. That means explaining the counterargument, explaining HOW it exists, and then WHY it falls short based on your claim. You are NOT undermining your claim by doing this, you are showing that you understand your topic THOROUGHLY and can dismiss it.

3) Your conclusion should answer the almighty common question: WHY does this topic and also your claim about it MATTER?

Trends in HR in Healthcare

For the past 10 years, Methodist Hospital Health System (MHHS) celebrated the fact that 60% of its new hires in management positions were women and minorities. The MHHS leadership assumed that with such a practice, women and minorities would eventually represent at least 50% of their top management executives (vice president level and above). But then something unexpected happened. A few years ago, MHHS became concerned that its diversity program was not producing results. Instead of seeing an increase in the number of women and minorities in executive positions, the organization was observing a decline. Talented female and minority managers were leaving, draining the pool of capable and qualified staff.

To address this problem, MHHS founded the Task Force on Retention and Advancement of Women and Minorities in Executive Positions (TFRA). This task force aimed to pinpoint the reasons why female and minority executives were leaving by conducting a massive information-gathering initiative, which included interviewing female and minorities at all levels, as well as former employees. The team uncovered these main areas of concern:

  1. Limited opportunity for advancement
  2. Lack of mentoring, coaching, and networking
  3. Existing work and family issues
  4. Lack of succession planning
  5. Lack of positive culture and transparent communication about promotion and professional development
  6. Lack of relevant and effective training, job development, and employee empowerment opportunities
  7. Cultural bias toward women and minorities, and an “old boy” network system
  8. Organizational resistance to embrace diversity
  9. Uncompetitive salary and benefits

In response to these findings, MHHS must retool the workplace.

Instructions:
