Human Resource Management

Case Study

Case Study

Purpose:

Flexibility, adaptability, and responsiveness to the external environment is essential if organizations are going to survive and thrive in a rapidly changing environment. Therefore, leaders and managers must know how to 
implement change successfully in their organizations or departments in response to rapidly shifting conditions. The ability to respond to change is partially determined by an
 organization’s structure and culture, along with having the knowledge of how to implement change effectively. The purpose of this project is to examine your understanding of the roles and skills of managers and to build a set of skills that will help you understand how to implement organizational change strategies. Using a case study, you will be asked to demonstrate how 
motivation
relationship building, and 
trust affect organizational effectiveness as change is implemented.

Step 1:  Carefully read the case study below.

Step 2:  Comprise a 
5-6 page paper (excluding the title page and reference list page) that includes ALL of the following points:

·
Research the 
concepts of organizational structure and change management and use this as the basis for creating your change management plan.

·
Research the 
concepts of motivation, trust, and behavior as they individually, and collectively, relate to the ability for leaders to create sound management relationships that ultimately lead to successful organizations; and the 
concepts of organizational structure and change management
 as they relate to the creation and implementation of a global organizational structure.

·
Apply your research on the concepts 
of motivation, trust, and behavior to the 
relationship-building issues identified in the case study. 

·
Develop a forward strategy for leadership and management that focuses on relationship building, diversity and trust that will help the organization implement these new strategies.

·
Consider change management and global organizational culture as you develop your plan.

·
Explain the reasoning/conclusions behind your plan elements and support them with your research, class materials, and case-study facts.

Case Study

  Ann McConnell is chief information officer (CIO) at Jackson Spice Ingredients (JSI), a large Maryland spice and food ingredient company. In an industry that has a large national market presence, yet is global in its need for raw materials, JSI is always looking for ways to increase productivity and speed things up while staying connected to its worldwide sources.  The mission of the organization is “to profitably expand its global leadership position in the spice, seasoning markets while being good stewards of the environment.”

     Two years into the job, McConnell suggested to company president, Charles Jackson, that it implement a new global organizational structure that is focused on divisions or geographic areas, thus enabling a stronger focus on local environments and sustainability. One of the first steps would be to reorganize the current functional structure and moving or hiring new managers for each of the new divisions.  The new divisional structure will enable more of a focus on the local environment, thus assisting managements in understanding how they can impact each demographic area.  

    In a meeting with managers,  Charles and Ann need to introduce the new strategies. They know that 3 of the 7 current managers will be reluctant to change to the new organizational structure and strategy.   Charles and Ann need to consider what management strategies they will need to focus on how to get all the managers on board and they need to consider what management skills will be most needed to implement the new strategies.

     Taking into consideration what you have learned the past few weeks on learning organizations, culture, and human capital, develop a strategy for leadership to use that will help management in their new roles and that will focus on the organizational vision and purpose
