You will analyze HR strategic initiatives of managing HR globally, diversity and inclusion, risk management, and social corporate responsibility that impact an organization's strategic goals.
Assume the role of an HR director at a U.S.-based call center that is presently based in the Midwest. The organization plans to expand its call center locations into the states of South Carolina and Tennessee and the country of India and needs to hire 100 employees. Your organization has been primarily hiring “local” talent, many of whom are relatives of present employees. However, as the organization looks to expand, there is a need to address new issues in diversity and inclusion, assess risks that may occur because of expansion, define the organization’s role for communities in new states and abroad, and consider if present members of HR or senior leaders might need overseas assignments to get the India location staffed and operating. As the HR director, you will create a strategic HR plan that addresses goals related to your organization’s growth. The plan should have an influence across the organization to be successful.
You must address the following rubric criteria:
- Diversity and Inclusion: Explain differences within the workplace and describe appropriate strategies for managing a diverse workforce.
- Risk Management: Determine appropriate proactive HR activities and policies for mitigating risk and explain how these strategies can be used within the organization.
- Corporate Social Responsibility: Describe HR’s role in creating a culture of social responsibility within the organization and the organization’s community.
- HR in the Global Context: Determine appropriate strategies for properly preparing employees for an expatriate assignment and explain how these approaches ensure ongoing engagement.
- Workplace Knowledge and Skill Competencies: Determine HR initiatives that support the workplace knowledge and skill competencies and explain which behavioral competencies within the Interpersonal Cluster are the most appropriate.
