Choose one question from the three below to answer. OPTIMAL POINTS will be rewarded for explicitly using course content (I should be able to easily recognize it!).
Please choose one of the following and write a 150-200 word response (no credit will be given for fewer than 150 words, write no more than 250 words.):
A. You just graduated from Georgia Southern and are an entry-level assistant manager at a sporting goods store in Asheville, North Carolina. Using the material you learned this week, tell me in a short paragraph what kind of analysis you would do, and how you would go about doing it. Pick from chapter 2 or 3 only for this question. Also, take into account that you are an entry-level assistant manager at a single geographic location (in other words, you arent the CEO of the company, and you dont have unlimited resources of information
or time!). How would you, in very practical terms, c
onduct your analysis and how would you use it?
Or
B. [Knowledge Management] Regardless of what kind of organization you work for, everyday you receive dozens (if not hundreds) of emails. Some contain important informationorganizational knowledge that can help you work more effectively and efficiently. Some contain nothing worth remembering. How do you organize the information you encounter everyday so that you can easily remember and find/retrieve that useful information in the future?
Or
C. Identify and explain 2-3 ways your organization could retain you as a valuable employee, that are non-financial in nature (in other words
without considering bonuses or salary increases). How could your organization/company keep you as a satisfied employee? What do they do now? What should they do? If you supervise others, what could you do right now that could be useful to retain valuable employees?
