Both the operations manager and the warehouse manager have been impressed with your argument in making a case of supply chain management and quality management within the company. The operations manager in your department wants you to conduct a formal presentation to him and the rest of the floor staff to highlight the benefits of supply chain management. He has over 30 years of operational management experience with the company, and he is skeptical of any change. He has never used any type of supply chain management techniques or tools, but found your discussion on supply chain . The warehouse manager has also expressed interest in having you conduct a similar presentation with a focus on quality management for his department and staff member at a later date. This is your opportunity to really pitch the advantages of implementing supply chain management and for designing a quality assurance process for these two departments within your company.

Develop a presentation to the warehouse manager that will be used to the benefits of quality management for his department.

Emotional Intelligence (EI) focuses on understanding the emotions and attitudes of others. To manage relationships effectively, we need to not only understand ourselves, but also increase what we know about others. EI emphasizes four key competencies for leadership success:

• Self-awareness–the ability to understand our own emotions and how they impact others
• Social awareness–the ability to understand the emotions of others
• Self-management–the ability to think before acting
• Relationship management–the ability to build rapport with others

Grasping the realities of organizational behavior begins with an understanding of personality and behavioral tendencies. Case Study 1 is designed to address issues pertaining to the emotions, attitudes, and job satisfaction of others. Read the “Trader Joe’s” case study on page W-99 in the back of your textbook to examine how emotions, attitudes, and job satisfaction influence decision-making.

Write a three to five (3-5) page paper in which you:

1. Examine the approach Trader Joe’s uses to promote a positive work environment for its employees. Determine at least three (3) ways in which Trader Joe’s is able to increase job satisfaction and performance.
2. Determine how Trader Joe’s uses the management process (planning, organizing, leading, and controlling) to develop its employees.
3. Suggest two (2) ways that leaders can effectively manage relationships in general by using the four (4) EI competencies.
4. Recommend at least three (3) leadership practices that Trader Joe’s could implement in order to increase the competitive edge of the organization. Provide a rationale for your response.
5. Use at least five (5) quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not qualify as academic resources.

Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:

• Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.
• Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.

The specific course learning outcomes associated with this assignment are:

• Analyze the relationship between the basic organizational behavior models of individual, group, and organizational processes and the productivity of an organization.
• Explore how individual differences, personality traits, and perspectives impact the productivity of an organization.
• Use technology and information resources to research issues in organizational behavior.
• Write clearly and concisely about organizational behavior using proper writing mechanics.

Grading for this assignment will be based on answer quality, logic / organization of the paper, and language and writing skills, using the following rubric found here.

 

Application: First Draft of Premise

You may feel that your plans are too tentative to draft a Premise. The reason for assigning a draft in Week 2 and a revision in Week 3, is that you are to start identifying and nominating a Dissertation committee. In Week 5, you will discuss the problem statement, purpose, and research questions in greater depth.

Using the Dissertation Premise Guide, draft your Premise. “The Litmus Test” section of the Dissertation Premise Guide outlines the hallmarks of the doctoral research problem and is used to assess the thoroughness and quality of the Premise. The four doctoral hallmarks determine whether the research problem is justified, grounded in the literature, original, and amenable to scientific study.

During the process of developing your annotated bibliography in this week’s Assignment 1, you most likely will be selecting and refining your research topic, and identifying the research problem. The other section of your Premise that must be included in this draft is the methodological approach, or “approach for the study” in the Premise outline. You will not be able to focus your methodological approach until you have identified your research questions.  Your methodological approach will be discussed further in Weeks 7 and 8. What you can do at this point for the Premise, however, is to select a tentative methodological approach that seems most logical.

To prepare for this Assignment, review Litmus Test, Research Planning and Writing, Research Resources and Tutorials from the Center for Research Quality, Walden University. Also review Dissertation resources in this week’s Learning Resources.

You will not be graded in Week 2 on the first draft of your Premise. You will have an opportunity to revise these components before you submit your final Premise for a grade in Week 3 Assignment 2.

Support your Application Assignments with specific references to all resources used in its preparation. You are asked to provide a reference list for all resources, including those in the Learning Resources for this course.

Submit your Assignment by Day 7.
