Global reward systems: Comparison Wal-Mart group rewarding system between CHINA and U.S.

The second task is the research study and this counts for 75% of the marks.
The assessment criteria for the final paper are slightly different, depending on whether you decide to work on an international HRM topic, or diversity; corporate socials responsibility and ethical behaviour and IHRM study. [See assessment criteria at the end of the guide.]
You cannot carry out a study on your own country, so any research must be in another country context.

The research case study is: Wal-Mart rewarding system in CHINA and U.S.
Words limitation : 3000
 
General Guidance:

Global reward systems

A research study on this subject could explore the nature and variance of reward and compensation systems and policies in a country of your choice. What factors do HR reward specialists need to consider in designing a reward policy which has to operate across a multi-national corporation?
The following provide some more detailed information to help you understand what you need to consider when writing your assignment. Some important factors to consider are:

  • Use a wide range of reference materials; Text books and especially journal articles;

 

  • Avoid just using the core text book as your main reference source;

 

  • Make sure you provide examples from an organisation known to you  to apply the theory or models;

 

  • Draw on your own organisational experiences;

 

  • Be critical of the theory and ideas, have your own opinions;

 

  • Avoid just describing the theory, make sure you develop an argument;

 

  • Use critical analysis throughout your work.

vement
 

  • Your objectives are rather lost in the discussion so it was not entirely clear what you are intending to research;
  • I think there were 4 objectives but I suggest you use bullet points to set out each objective;
  • When you have written clearer objectives then think about how you will provide the evidence you have achieved them?
  • If this is based on Wal-Mart then you will need to consider a question that asks can you design a reward system that is appropriate to both countries.
  • You reference section was very limited I would have expected around 10 to 15 references;
  • Nothing here about how national culture might impact on the design of the reward systems;
  • What about non-financial rewards;
  • Be sure to apply a good level of critical analysis to the research so that you are questioning and evaluation the research and literature you use in the study.

Be sure to apply a good level of critical analysis to the research so that you are questioning and evaluation the research and literature you use in the study.

leadership and effective governance of organisations

Essay Topic.Discuss the impact that leadership can have on the effective governance of organisations.Youressay topicshould be informed by the extant literature on leadership and governance, especially literature which points to the need for organisations to develop forms of leadership and governance that operate effectively across shifting boundaries of the new economy. You are also required to examine literature highlighting the need for organisations to create ethical corporate culture (Caldwell et al 2008; Schwartz 2013) since ethical leadership influences group in-role performance (Walumbwa et al 2012). Finally, you will review the existing leadership research which proposes relationships between organisational leadership, leadership development, followership, organisational governance and organisational performance (Carcello 2009).

Write a work based learning project of no more than 3,000 words.

Project description
TITLE
Write a work based learning project of no more than 3,000 words. They will be expected to include observations of one of the workplaces in which they are conducting their placement. They will need to apply concepts from the Psychodynamics of Organisational Processes to interpret the meaning of their observations.
DESCRIPTION
The Work based Learning project invites the student to demonstrate an understanding of institutional and group dynamics, and how these affect both staff and clients.
In their writing of this project students will also be able to demonstrate their capacity to take on the role of a research oriented participant observer in one of their placements. This may be in the placement agency itself, or in a related part of the wider organization in which the placement agency is situated. The project is a piece of Qualitative research in the form of participant observation. One of the tasks given to the student on placement is that of negotiating a viable role as a participant observer.
A ?participant observer is someone who is making observations while at the same time participating as a member of the organization which is being observed.
Depending on the culture? of each organization, this may mean being able to take up a more traditionally passive role, or it may involve being an active participant in whatever is being observed. Again, depending on the nature of their placement organization,
students may be able to observe meetings, or they may have to or choose to make observations of the agency in action (for example, the reception area or the general office). It is essential, over the course of Module 4, to have a series of observations made under the same or similar conditions, so that a consistent frame can be applied with which to observe the institutions anxieties, defences and ways of dealing with conflict and authority (and other relevant issues)
. It is much easier to see patterns in organizational functioning if a student is able to make weekly or fortnightly observations. Sometimes this is not possible and the student will have to find other ways of making observations on an irregular basis.
In writing the Work Based Learning Project, students should include a very brief factual description of the agency, and a brief description of its primary task, its structures and roles.
Consideration also needs to be given, again very briefly, to the relationship of the agency to the wider environment, and the impact of events or policies in the wider environment on the agency.
The written paper will inevitably be a reflection of the student experience of being in the placement agency. However the student needs to remember that they are being asked to write an academic paper and not a piece of personal biography, nor an account of their experience of their placement and its personnel.
The use of personal experience needs to be employed specifically in relation to the task of understanding the dynamics of the agency, just as in clinical psychodynamic work exploration of the counsellor’s counter-transference is undertaken in order to understand the nature of the client’s transference. A major task of the Work Based Learning Project is in fact to find a viable position from which to write, and an appropriate tone and manner in which to do so, for example one which avoids the temptations of idealisation or condemnation of the agency being observed.
In writing the work based learning project it is important that students take care to preserve the confidentiality of the agency and staff members about whom they are writing. A minimum requirement is that the names of the organisation and individuals should be changed and disguised to preserve anonymity.
