Employee Referrals

This case addresses the fine line an employer must tread between protecting an employee’s (or former employee’s) privacy versus the obligation that an employer has to warn potential new employers that a particular individual poses a potential threat based on past behavior (e.g., violence, threats, mental instability).

Three Roles: human resource supervisor (Gary Garcia), branch manager n (Anthony Garrison), branch supervisor (Maya Atkins).

Scenario:

Neil Andrews is a hardworking employee but has a reputation for being a hothead. After branch manager Anthony Garrison changed Andrews’ work schedule so that he would now have to work every other Saturday, Andrews gets extremely upset. He walks into Garrison’s office, puts his face inches away from Garrison’s face and says, “One of these days, I’m going to lose it in here. After I am done, there will be nothing but smoke and embers!” He storms out of the office and goes across the street to a convenience store. About 15 minutes later, Andrews returns, calmer after having eaten two packages of Toasted Sweeties and washing it down with a soda. He picks up his toolbox and goes to his next assignment for the day. Garrison has never liked Andrews and sees this episode as an opportunity to get rid of him.

Activity: This is a two-part scenario.

Part 1 – You are to decide if Andrews should be discharged. Once you make your decision, state what your decision is and justify your decision

Part 2 – Assume for the sake of this portion of the activity that Andrews is discharged. What type of information (if any) should Personally Yours give when a potential employer calls for a reference?

Exploring Current Marketing Activities

In this research assignment, you will analyze the role marketing plays in three different companies whose marketing activities have recently appeared in the news. You’ll prepare a paper describing the three companies’ approaches to marketing as exemplified in their recent marketing activities.
Deliverables
A two-page (500-word) or less describing three companies’ marketing activities
Step 1
Select three marketing topics from different companies whose marketing activities have recently appeared in the news.
You must discuss three different marketing topics in your paper. Examples of appropriate marketing topics include (but are not limited to):
Price
Products or Services
Advertising/Promotion
Marketing Strategy
Distribution/Supply Chain Management
So, for example, you might choose to talk about 1) the price of a Nike pair of shoes, 2) a new supply chain strategy from Pepsi, and 3) a new promotion from Levis. (This is only an example; you are free to choose your companies and the related marketing topics.)
Your selection of companies can come from any industry but be sure to choose companies that are interesting to you and that you want to learn more about.
Remember that for this assignment your goal is to analyze the role marketing plays in each company through the lens of your chosen topics and generalize the types of decisions marketers make.

Step 2
Describe the marketing topic you have selected for each company.
Be sure to state the specifics of the marketing activity. As appropriate, provide links to applicable websites in your paper and/or include references to articles or advertisements.
Step 3
Research each company.
Research each company and discuss possible reasons why the company has taken the marketing activities that it did.
Based on the information available from your research you may or may not be able to determine precisely why the marketing activity has been performed.
You should, however, be able to discuss a variety of possible reasons why the company has taken the observed action.
Finally, list any ethical considerations that you think may have impacted the observed marketing strategy.

Is there a problem in your work or social sphere that you feel compelled to understand and act upon? Have you
read a story or viewed a documentary and thought “I could do something like that”?
Once you have watched this week’s Scholar of Change video, you have the opportunity to reflect on how that
student merged their academic studies with their passion for making a difference. In this Discussion, you have
an opportunity to start that journey, to consider a topic you would like to explore.
For this Discussion, you will explore topics in your discipline of interest to you that you want to research using a
qualitative approach.
Topic I Would Like To Explore
(The Relationship Between Socioeconomic Status and the Prevalence of Diabetes in the African American
Communities)
To prepare for this Discussion:
• Review the Learning Resources related to qualitative research.
• Consider a topic in your discipline that is of interest to you. This could come from a prior course or something
from your work or personal setting for which you have a passion.
Based on your initial understanding of qualitative research, post a description of the topic you chose in terms of
how it could be conceptualized as a qualitative study. Include:

  1. What is the phenomenon of interest?
  2. What experiences or contextual issues might influence how this phenomenon could be studied?
  3. In what setting(s) could a topic like this be explored?
  4. What connection do you have to this topic, and why do you think it is important to explore this as a
    qualitative study?
  5. What possibilities could the results of this research have for social change?
    Be sure to support your main post and response post with reference to the week’s Learning Resources and
