Annotated Bibliography (Human Resources)

Human Resources Management Annotated Bibliography

Purpose:

This assignment seeks to examine the impact of environmental change on management practices.  This project is created to encourage good research and writing skills that are needed for assignments, and to identify and evaluate theories and theorists that influence our management building skills.

Your manager overheard you telling a colleague that you are taking a graduate-level organizational theory class at UMGC. He remembers his college course on organizational behavior and realizes that he found the knowledge he learned extremely useful over the years. Lately, he has felt that he has been overwhelmed with changes that require him and his employees to quickly respond to situations that he cannot always solve effectively. Experience has taught him that professional development is a lifelong endeavor. To that end he would like you to select some articles for him to read on the following topics: management theory, management skills and practices, external/economic impacts to organizations, internal/structure impacts to organizations, and/or responding to change.

Instructions for this assignment:

Step 1: Using 

OneSearch
  in the UMGC online library, conduct a search for at least 3 scholarly articles that address how organizations can respond to unplanned change (whether internal or external). 
The articles need to be current – published within the past five years.

· Article selection should consider management theory, management skills and practices, external/economic impacts to organizations, internal/structure impacts to organizations, and/or responding to change.

· Articles should bring a contemporary perspective on one or more of the major theorists who developed management studies in the 19th-20th centuries.

Step 2: Create an annotated bibliography for each article. Guidance on writing an an 

annotated bibliography can be found here
. The articles should be summarized in 2-3 paragraphs as the format suggests.

Step 3: Then, aggregately analyze and explain the articles for the way in which internal and external factors cause change in workplace behavior. 
This section should comprise 2 paragraphs using multiple course readings and research to support how the internal and external factors identified in the selected articles can/do cause change in workplace behavior and ultimately organizational structure and culture. Show the connection between these contemporary writers and the major theoretical perspectives that they drew from earlier ‘fathers’ of management science.

Step 4: Conclude the paper with a two to three paragraph examination of the  selected articles and the impact to managing effectively. Be sure to clearly explain your reasoning for the selection and provide supporting examples and rationale from class readings related to the modern organization.

INSTRUCTIONS ON HOW TO PREPARE THE SUBMISSION:

Check the instructions to make sure ALL elements of the assignment have been covered.

Citing & Writing
 page

.
 Consider using the 

Online Guide to Writing and Research
 or the Tutoring assistance – link above under Academic Support

Paraphrase and do not use direct quotation marks. Check the UMGC Writing Center’s 

Guide to Paraphrasing
. This means you do not use more than four consecutive words from a source document, put a passage from a source document into your own words, and attribute the passage to the source document. Provide the page or paragraph number. Note that a reference within a reference list cannot exist without an associated in-text citation and vice versa.

The analysis should begin with an introductory paragraph that clearly and succinctly explains what you intend to cover in the body of the paper.

The analysis should end with a conclusion/summary paragraph that clearly and succinctly explains what you covered in the body of the paper.

Third-person writing is required. Third-person means that there are no words such as “I, me, my, we, or us” (first-person writing), nor is there use of “you or your” (second-person writing). If uncertain how to write in the third person, view this link: 


Contractions are not used in business writing, so the expectation is that students do NOT use contractions in the assignment.

The paper must be double-spaced with 1-inch margins with 12 pt. font.

Submit the final project, WORD DOCUMENT (no .pdf) into the appropriate assignment submission folder.

NOTE: All submitted work is to be your original work. You may not use any work from another student, the Internet, or an online clearinghouse. You are expected to understand general academic expectations with regard to proper citation of sources.
