There are three goals of the Thought Paper assignment enabled in two written parts (Part A and Part B). The first goal is to enable you to think over pressing issues in employee compensation and benefits to you determine your position on the issue. A sample issue: Should companies abandon the use of compensation surveys? In your paper, you will take a position on the issue (e.g., I believe that companies should not abandon the use of compensation surveys …), and provide a rationale for your position, calling on outside sources to substantiate it. The second goal is to find your voice as an aspiring professional. Your opinion should be informed by an analysis of credible sources and experiences to earn respect in your profession, and your opinion and analysis is the information that follows the word in Part A. . The third goal is to provide an opportunity for you to express information clearly and concisely in written form. In preparing this assignment, assume the role of a compensation professional who is briefing HR colleagues on a timely employee compensation topic. In the example, you would provide a rationale for each point that you raise after the word . Base your paper on two or three articles from HR-practitioner publications (e.g., , published by the Society for Human Resource Management), business periodicals (e.g., Forbes), major newspapers (e.g., , ), or other news outlets (e.g., cnn.com). cite your sources in the text using a consistent style and list each source as a reference on the last page of your assignment. There should be sufficient information to enable me to obtain the item (that is, author name, source such as a website, year if it is a book or journal, and the pages numbers if it is a book or journal). And formulate a rationale for your position based on your chosen sources and professional experience. You will receive credit for this assignment (20 to 30 points based on the quality of your answer) if you satisfy Parts A and B. Stating your position (Part A) without providing any coherent rationale based on your thoughts and outside sources (Part B) earns you 3 points—10% of the total points. Stating your position (Part A) and providing a rationale that does not include your own thoughts or information from relevant sources to substantiate it (Part B) earns you 15 points—50% of the total points.  spell- and grammar check your work. Having more than two errors will lead to a reduction of 1 point per error (that is, 1 point for the 3rd error, 1 point for the 4th error, and so forth). U.S. chief executive officer compensation is excessive compared to nonexecutive employees. Indicate whether you believe that U.S. chief executive officer compensation is excessive compared to nonexecutive employees. . Provide a rationale for your position. . limit your write-up to 250 to 300 words (excluding references).

Reflective Journal: Who Am I?—The Journey Begins You have been learning that diversity manifests itself at the personal level through a unique set of social identities. It follows that examining who you are and the diverse social identities you represent, establishes a strong starting point for your study of diversity. If you cultivate a deep level understanding of who you are and how you became who you are, you are also more likely to understand and respect other people’s individual diversity. This assignment marks the beginning of crafting your “Diversity Profile.” Throughout the course, this assignment will provide you with opportunities to add new insights and ideas to your profile, based on your learning and increasingly complex understanding of diversity. As you progress, your “Diversity Profile” will grow, change, and—as part of a life-long process—represent more authentically your personal complexity and diversity. Begin crafting your “Diversity Profile” by following these steps: •Watch the web video “War/No More Trouble” by “Playing for Change.” •Read and reflect on the accompanying text below the web video (you may need to expand the description). •Review the excerpt from Ramsey’s Teaching and Learning in a Diverse World and Deaux’s article “Social Identity.” Title the Assignment: Diversity Profile—Week 1 and complete in the following way: Part 1: Who Am I? •Using the social identities list in the article “Social Identity,” write down the social identities that apply to you. If you “own” additional social identities which are not included in this article, make sure to include them in your list. •Beginning with the phrase, “I am…” and based on the social identities you just wrote, compose a list of at least 10 words or phrases that complete the sentence and represent some or all your social identities. Remember that this list is for your benefit only and does not have to conform to anyone else’s perceptions about you. If possible, move beyond the obvious and dig deep, asking yourself sincerely: Who am I? Part 2: What Are My Goals for This Course? •Write down three specific professional goals you have at this point for your study of diversity (e.g., what changes in yourself you expect or hope for and/or what professional benefits you expect). Submit your Diversity Profile, Parts 1 and 2. Submit this assignment by Wednesday of this week.

You must choose between two sales recruits. One has scored very high in terms of the quality of his interview, but not very well on the series of psychological tests to predict qualities the firm thinks are necessary for success. Another person did well on the psychological testing, but not very well in the personal interview. All other things being equal, which one would you hire, and why? What do you think the strengths and weaknesses would be of the one you hired? Spiro, R. L., Rich, G. A., & Stanton, W. J. (2008). Management of a sales force (12th ed., Pg., 163-165, 171-173 ).
