Examine a human resource management problem or issue of concern in a real organization (preferably the organization you work for). The purpose of this project is to give you an opportunity to apply what has been learned in the course ( readings, class activities and discussions) to problems in an organization of your choice.

Focus on an issue or problem that the organization is facing and is relevant to the content of this course. It will likely take several conversations with your key contact person at the organization to identify a problem or issue that can be clearly defined, is manageable in scope, and is relevant to the course. I advise you to be selective in choosing an issue or problem to study, as a lack of depth in the issue itself will not be an acceptable excuse for lack of depth in the analysis. You may also supplement information with data from media, the organization’s literature, and other secondary sources.

Provide a company overview (Company history, mission, vision, core values, number of employees, etc). (This is the introduction of the paper)
What is the HR issue or problem facing the organization? (Be specific.)
Example: Google’s HR issue is employee retention.
What course concepts can be applied to understand why the problem is occurring? (Be sure to explain why the problem is occurring)
What recommendations can you offer to help improve the issue or problem being faced? (Minimum of two recommendations) – Must be supported by scholarly resources to support why these recommendations are appropriate
