Global Performance Management/Rewards

In this assignment, your critical-thinking skills will be assessed. The critical-thinking rubric will be useful for this purpose. In HRM401, they were assessed at the “introduced” level. In this course, HRM402, critical-thinking skills will be assessed at the “reinforced” level. Finally, in HRM403, your critical-thinking skills will be assessed at the “emphasized” level. The grading rubric for critical thinking at the undergraduate level has been developed to measure student success in meeting the HRM403 Case 3 expectations. Rubrics for the other two courses are included in their respective assignments.

Create a visual that shows five of the most important HRM-related talent management issues specific to this employer and rank them in importance to their business success. Your visual can be a chart, flyer, or drawing, as long as it is in a format that is accepted in TLC. The use of color is encouraged in this part of the assignment.

Then discuss in detail the top (#1) and bottom (#5) issues and explain why you ranked them as you did.

Finally, look up the company in each of the following:

Company’s website.
Locate two high-quality articles related to talent management in use at this company (peer-reviewed high-quality references are found in the online library).

Review what you have learned from your research in a-c above, especially as it updates the case information in Bluen’s book.

Provide an introduction and a conclusion, cite sources, and include a cover and References page.
