Cultural Considerations in Learning and Development

You are currently the head trainer of a global U.S. automobile manufacturer. The organization has decided to expand its operations into the Eastern market such as China, Japan, and Singapore. The vice president of human resources has asked that you create a proposal outlining your plans for a new hire orientation program for the Eastern market. In your proposal, include the elements listed below.

Discuss how the Eastern market will potentially view new hire orientation, and then discuss two to three ways to tailor the new hire orientation to this market.

Discuss how the Eastern market perceives the relationship between the learner and trainer.

Discuss who will be responsible for giving the new hire orientation to the Eastern employees and how the orientation will be delivered. For example, will a local who is familiar with the language deliver a live orientation training session, or will it be a remote training session with a translator?

Operation management (MBA-essay)

Prior Reading
As background information, familiarise yourself with the EFQM model (the PDF is also available within the Assessment Instructions section). The questions and assessment criteria for Coursework A assessment are outlined below.

Overall Task

1. Apply the EFQM Business Excellence model, using relevant theory and concepts learnt on the module, to one organisation of your choice in the food industry. Draw on your analysis to identify and capture strengths and areas for improvement to the chosen organisation (40%):

Criterion 3: Engaging Stakeholders

Discuss how the sustainable relationships with partners & suppliers (3.5) build within the company.

Criterion 4 – Creating Sustainable Value

Critically evaluate the key processes required to deliver the value (4.3).

Criterion 5 – Driving Performance & Transformation

Analyse how the company develops new product and evaluate whether the company utilises technology (5.3)?

2. Based on your analysis, recommend one Operations OR Supply Chain Management strategy that the chosen organisation could pursue to drive business excellence. Apply RADAR framework to your recommendation (40%).

Marks will be awarded for structure, presentation (including executive summary), and quality of references (10%).

Note: You should draw on relevant theory, concepts and principles learnt on the module throughout the report.

Some advice on developing your strategy in Q2
You may wish to use the RADAR elements to help you address questions 2. This may also influence the key points raised in your executive summary.

Radar Element

Strategy

Result

What would success look like from this strategy?

Approach

Describe what the strategy looks like in terms of an approach or approaches?

Deployment

What specific steps would the chosen organisation take to deliver this strategy/approach?

Assessment & Refinement

How would the chosen organisation ensure the approach stays on track? What else would they need to consider? Who else could they learn from?

Advice on the practical application of theory
There is an expectation that you go beyond learning gained on the BMHPO module. This includes a need to conduct your own research into the key themes underpinning the questions above using the academic literature (e.g. journal articles and other credible sources).

You will need to briefly introduce your chosen organisation to familiarise the reader with the appropriate context. There are no marks for detailed background to the company. You are being assessed on your reflections, interpretation, and application of theory in practice and analytical reasoning using accepted academic practice and literature.

Guidance notes

This report is worth 45% of your total grade for this module. An essential feature of the report is to illustrate how theoretical constructs or models can be critically analysed and applied to organisations in practice.
You are advised to read widely. In fact, unless you have read and referenced at least 10 discrete references, it is unlikely that you have done sufficient reading (you need to go beyond this to achieve higher marks).
This component is an academic assignment and should be written in an appropriate style (e.g. using 3rd person).
You are required to present your report using a clear coherent structure. A typical format will include an introduction, conclusion, recommendations, full reference list, and any appropriate appendices. You may use headings and subheadings.
