01 Apr Module 2 – SLP ACQUIRING AND RETAINING TALENT
In this assignment, your written communications skills will be assessed. The written communications rubric will be useful for this purpose. In the course MGT302, written communication skills were assessed at the “introduced” level. In MGT407, they will be assessed at the “reinforced” level. Finally, in MGT491 your written communication skills will be assessed at the “mastered” level. The grading rubric for written communication at the undergraduate level has been developed to measure student success in meeting the MGT407 Case 3 expectations. Rubrics for the other two courses are included in their respective assignments.
In an interview with Dr. Edward Hallowell, Harrison (2011) discussed Hallowell’s Cycle of Excellence as a five-step process that managers can use to foster high performance in their organizations.
According to Hallowell, to manage employees, managers must first employ them, which is the first step—(1) Select.
(2) Connect is the next is to determine if a new employee fits into the organization.
The next two steps, (3) Play and (4) Grapple and Grow, go together because they are actions taken by employees along with their managers. These growth opportunities go a long way to increase job satisfaction and productivity levels.
