Assignment 1: Report on Organization (MS PowerPoint Presentation) (20%)

This assignment allows you to demonstrate mastery of the course outcomes:

1. Determine core requisite competencies for the organization and differentiate a total rewards program to attract, retain, and motivate employees possessing the organization’s required competencies

In this assignment, you will design and share a MS PowerPoint presentation that describes the organization for which you work, its current and future challenges, its capabilities, and the requisite competencies needed for its success. You will look for and report on examples of the existing total rewards programs to include monetary, non-monetary, and the work environment (including values and culture). The MS PowerPoint presentation will include a report on existing metrics (organizational or HR) if any are present. If citations or Web site materials are used, in-text citations and sources presented on a References page using American Psychological Association (APA) format are expected. This information can be used in the final paper (the final assessment which is a plan to change the organization’s total rewards programs). It is expected that at least three references from the course materials will be used.

At the least, this MS PowerPoint Presentation will include:

1. Academic Title Slide

2. Introduction and Purpose for the Paper

3. Description of the Organization

4. Capabilities of the Organization and Requisite Competencies of the Employees

5. Current and Future Challenges
