Read each of the following scenarios (below) dealing with employment law.  For each, please identify the following and submit via Canvas:

  1. Do you believe the employee in the scenario has a valid complaint and/or discrimination has taken place?  Why or why not?  What are the key facts in the scenario?
  2. Under what law(s) do you believe the alleged discrimination has taken place?  Please identify the law, by name, through a review of your textbook.

Scenario A

Amy was hired at Neuman Manufacturing six weeks ago. She liked her job except for one thing—several days ago she learned of a gift received by a co-worker that she believed was not ethical. She reported this information to Human Resources and was terminated at the end of the current pay period. Would Amy have a valid complaint against her employer? Why or why not? Last night John went to a party to blow off some steam. Work had been really tough this week. While he was out, some people were passing around some marijuana and John decided that this would help him to relax even more. When he got to work the next day, the mobile drug testing van pulled up to his workplace. John drew a random number and was required to take the drug test—it came back positive for THC. John was terminated for non-compliance with the company’s drug-free workplace policy. John wants to file a charge of discrimination against his employer because he claims that his boss is overbearing and causing him undue stress. 

Scenario B

Ed has worked with his employer for 30 years, he started after graduating from college. Despite his years of service, Ed has never advanced above the mailroom. The company announces a new management development program and Ed thinks this is his opportunity to move up in the company. He participates in the tests, scores well enough to be granted an interview, does well in the interview and makes it to the final five candidates. When the four management development positions are awarded, Ed does not receive one. Ed thinks he has been discriminated against.

Scenario C

Suzan works for a bank as a teller, she has been a good employee for over twenty years. A new manager is assigned to Suzan’s branch. One day, when balancing the branch after business is complete, the new manager believes that $10,000 is missing. The manager recounts each drawer and determines that Suzan is off by $10,000. She immediately terminates Suzan on the spot. The internal audit team comes in to follow up, they determine that the manager had mistakenly counted Suzan’s “bait money” as cash in the drawer—thus Suzan was not off by $10,000 at the end of the day.

Scenario D

Frank works as a cashier for a department store. He operates a teller window that takes payments, cashes checks, and answers questions for customers. While riding his bicycle one weekend, Frank has an accident. After six weeks of recovery, Frank returns to work but is unable to stand. His supervisor claims that Frank is required to stand at the cashier’s window and, if he is unable to do this, will have to transfer to a lower-paying job.

Briefly identify and discuss the key political forces that led to Eisner’s downfall.

/in /by

After you have reviewed the contents of the Walt Disney Company website, completed the above readings and those provided at the Background page of Module 3, and performed additional research from the library and the internet, write a 6- to 7-page paper in which you do the following:
Using the following five assumptions of the Political Frame, complete an in-depth assessment of the Walt Disney Company:
1. Organizations are coalitions of diverse individuals and interest groups.
2. There are enduring differences among coalition members in values, beliefs, information, interests, and perceptions of reality.
3. Most important decisions involve allocating scarce resources—who gets what.
4. Scarce resources and enduring differences make conflict central to organizational dynamics and underline power as the most important asset.
5. Goals and decisions emerge from bargaining, negotiation, and jockeying for position among competing stakeholders.
The key aspects of this assignment that are to be covered in your 6- to 7-page paper include the following:
• Using Bolman and Deal’s Political Frame, analyze the political behaviors surrounding the departure of Disney CEO Michael Eisner. Specifically, address the following:
o Briefly identify and discuss the key political forces that led to Eisner’s downfall.
o How does the “Jungle” metaphor apply to the Eisner case?
o Describe the coalitions that formed at Disney. Then, identify those salient interests that caused the division between coalitions, and how these differences were ultimately resolved.
o Discuss the Eisner case study in the context of two or three of Bolman and Deal’s Political Frame assumptions included above. How do the assumptions you’ve chosen inform what happened in the Michael Eisner case?
o Briefly comment on the significance of the “Toxic Triangle” (see Figure 1 of Forbes & Watson’s case study about Eisner’s departure), and discuss how this model informs the Eisner case study.
o The background readings will not give you all the answers to the Case. Therefore, you are required to perform some research in the library, and use a minimum of 3-4 scholarly sources from the library to support and justify your understanding of the case.
o Your paper must demonstrate evidence of critical thinking (if you need tips on critical thinking, http://www.criticalthinking.org/pages/college-and-university-students/799 is an excellent resource). Don’t simply restate facts – instead, be sure to interpret the facts you have accumulated from your research.
o Remember that the Module 4 Case will also serve as Chapter 4 of your session-long thesis-style paper.

Briefly describe your organization – name, what it does, size (number of employees, annual revenue, relative market share, etc.);

/in /by

The Module 2 SLP requires that you write a 3- to 4-page paper, in which you address the following:
After giving a brief description of the organization in which you presently work – or in which you have previously worked – apply the Human Resources Frame to the organization, analyzing the effectiveness of two or three human resources/ human relations characteristics you have identified.
Keys to the Assignment
The key aspects of this assignment that should be covered in your paper include the following:
• Briefly describe your organization – name, what it does, size (number of employees, annual revenue, relative market share, etc.);
• Choose 2 or 3 human resources activities within your organization (e.g., recruitment, evaluation, development, training, etc.); and
• Using Bolman and Deal’s Human Resources Frame as a lens, discuss the relative effectiveness of the human resources characteristics you have selected. If you were CEO of your company, what (if anything) might you do differently? Why would you make the changes you suggest?

Describe Walt Disney’s approach to human resources.

/in /by

After you have reviewed the contents of the Walt Disney Company website, completed the readings provided at the Background page of Module 1, and performed additional research from the library and on the internet, write a 6- to 7-page paper in which you do the following:
Using the following assumptions of the Human Resources Frame, complete an in-depth assessment of the Walt Disney Company:
• Organizations exist to serve human needs rather than the reverse.
• People and organizations need each other. Organizations need ideas, energy, and talent; people need careers, salaries, and opportunities.
• When the fit between individual and system is poor, one or both suffer. Individuals are exploited or exploit the organization—or both become victims.
• A good fit benefits both. Individuals find meaningful and satisfying work, and organizations get the talent and energy they need to succeed.
Keys to the Assignment
The key aspects of this assignment that are to be covered in your 6- to 7-page paper include the following:
• Describe Walt Disney’s approach to human resources. Is Disney’s overall approach to human resources more or less effective relative to its ability to help the organization accomplish its stated purpose (vision, mission)? Explain.
• Using Bolman and Deal’s Human Resources Frame, analyze two or three human resources/ human relations characteristics of the Walt Disney Company. Because you cannot cover all characteristics that are related to human resources/ relations in a short paper, you will need to be selective; therefore, choose two or three characteristics that are of particular interest to you. These might include, for example the Walt Disney Company’s benefits design, its employee orientation/training programs, or its employee evaluation systems.
• For each of the human resources characteristics that you have included in your Case, discuss the extent to which that characteristic has been effective or ineffective relative to helping Disney to attain its stated purpose. Defend your answer in the context of the four (4) assumptions given above (how well do the two or three human resources/ relations characteristics you’ve identified ascribe to these assumptions – if at all)?
• Having had applied the Human Resources Frame to the Walt Disney Company, is there anything that you would you do differently? Conclude Chapter 3 of your paper by giving recommendations as to what you believe Disney should do, and explain why.
• The background readings will not give you all the answers to the Case. Therefore, you are expected to perform some research in the library, using a minimum of 3-4 scholarly sources from the library to support and justify your understanding of the case.
• Your paper must demonstrate evidence of critical thinking (if you need tips on critical thinking, http://www.criticalthinking.org/pages/college-and-university-students/799 is an excellent resource). Please do not restate facts – instead, be sure to interpret the facts you have accumulated from your research.
• Remember that the Module 3 Case will serve as Chapter 3 of your session-long thesis-style paper.

Which philosophical worldview most closely aligns with your perspective and the way that you view problems in the world? How so?

/in /by

One’s view of research plays a pivotal role in influencing his/her research study largely because of the associated inherent biases and predispositions. Therefore, it is of critical importance to understand these biases so as to mitigate any potential risks of it undermining the viability and reliability of your study. Please answer the below questions and outline the questions in the paper before answering them. Provide 3 references in APA style format.

Which philosophical worldview most closely aligns with your perspective and the way that you view problems in the world? How so?

Please select a philosophical worldview below:

The four worldviews are distinguished, namely positivist (or post-positivist), constructivist (or interpretivist), advocacy/participatory, and pragmatist.

How does understanding the connection between philosophical worldview and research methodology assist in your research approach?

Compare/contrast research philosophical worldview with that of a Christian worldview. Are there any areas that are problematic or do most philosophical worldviews appear to be congruent with a Christian worldview?

Example answers below: do not incorporate this same reply. This is given to provide a guide in helping you construct the paper.

Pragmatism confirms that truth is real, justified and evidence-based (Powell, 2019). It has a basis in practicality that recognizes the existence and importance of both the natural world and the social/psychological world (Robson & McCartan, 2016). This philosophy resonates with my perspective on life and the balance between the physical world in which we live, and the experiences and thoughts that shape the way we interact with it. This combination is seen in the study by Guangpu (2017), who showed that though genetic expression produced certain behavioral traits, cognitive ability was the final determiner in whether that behavior was exhibited. Thus, it is the combination of the natural world and the psychological makeup of the person that determines behaviors, confirming the need for one’s philosophical worldview to recognize both aspects of life.

How does understanding the connection between philosophical worldview and research methodology assist in your research approach?

Our philosophical worldview is foundational to how we interact with the world around us, including in our thoughts on research. A researcher with a positivistic worldview, for example, will likely focus on more quantitative research methods that deal with fact and observation (Robson & McCartan, 2016). However, care must be taken to understand the intricacies of our worldview and the limitations of research. Zyphur and Pierides (2017) logic that this approach tries to remove values from fact yet is unable to do so. To address real-world problems, positivist researchers must take into consideration the values of the communities being researched. The authors argue that to eliminate values is too simplistic and would devalue the purpose of the work. With a pragmatic outlook, research takes on a more holistic approach with a focus on “what works” rather than a dogmatic methodology (Robson & McCartan, 2016).

Compare/contrast research philosophical worldview with that of a Christian worldview. Are there any areas that are problematic or do most philosophical worldviews appear to be congruent with a Christian worldview?

The Christian worldview begins with a belief that the Bible is the infallible word of God and the framework for all that we say, do and believe (Tackett, 2006). The Bible holds that the physical world is a real creation (New International Version Bible, 1978/1984, Gen 1:1-25) and that humanity is made in God’s image (New International Version Bible, 1978/1984, Gen 1:26-27). A positivistic worldview would agree with the physicality of the created world but would discount the areas of faith that remain unseen (Robson & McCartan, 2016). Constructionism would discount the physical world and focus on more metaphysical aspects of the faith. Pragmatism and post-positivism provide credence to the reality of the physical world as well as the value to the unseen factors that set humanity apart. However, both create discord in the shifting nature of truth and knowledge.
