Option #1: ROI vs. Balanced Scorecard

Dirt Bikes’ management would like to analyze the return on its investment in its employee training and skills tracking system described in Chapter 13. The system runs on the human resources specialists’ PCs using PC database software. Because the entire corporate administrative staff recently received new desktop PC systems with database and other productivity software, there are no additional hardware and software purchase costs. The main costs include the initial cost of designing and implementing the database (business staff cost of $5,000, information systems staff cost of $15,000), gathering and adding employee skills and training data to the database ($5,500 initial data conversion cost plus $1,000 annual data entry costs), and ongoing maintenance and support ($3,000 annually). Human resources staff members believe the new application could save each of them two hours of work per week. (Their annual salaries are $37,000 and $42,000 each.) The company would also save about $11,000 annually in employee recruiting costs because it would be able to fill many vacant positions with existing employees, thereby reducing its costs for recruiting outside the company. The system would not be installed until the end of 2014 and would return benefits from 2015 to 2019.

I have finished a paper which is about talking about culture using the Cultural Web and Hofstede’s criteria. (My paper is attached below)

Someone replied me like this:

I enjoyed reading your essay. I agree that rigidity towards change is affected by how connected a culture is to its past and maintaining those traditions. Its interesting, though, that if a culture’s history was full of embracing change, than that value wouldn’t be as difficult. However, when a culture’s history is based on maintaining tradition, then change will be much harder. 

How would you assess Chinese culture using the Cultural Web and Hofstede’s Dimensions? As you mentioned earlier, the Cultural Web includes paradigm, rituals and routines, stories, symbols, control systems, power structures, and organizational structure (Palmer, Dunford, & Buchanan, 2017, p. 116). Hofstede’s Dimensions include means-oriented vs goal-oriented, internally driven vs externally driven, easygoing work discipline vs strict work discipline, local vs professional, open system vs closed system, employee-oriented vs work-oriented, degree of acceptance of leadership style, and degree of identification with your organization (Hofstede, n.d.).

I used the references listed below to find more details about these two categories. The Cultural Web is in our text book on the page I cited in the paragraph above. I found great information about Hofstede’s Dimensions from the creator’s website linked in the references below.
