Discussion

Can you please complete these discussions for me. They are due tomorrow. Monday. Sorry for the lateness but my computer went down and I have to work 12 hours. 

Discussion 1

If you have taken the time to review Herzberg’s work, you may have learned that people accept a job and stay on the job for different motivational reasons.  Job satisfaction is achieved through what Herzberg would categorize as motivational factors (personal growth; responsibility; the work itself; opportunities for achievement, advancement, recognition; and/or to make a positive difference) rather than hygiene factors (status, salary, job security, types of supervision, etc.).

Using at least three comparison web examples from the industry you used in your “Herzberg’s Two-Factor Theory” discussion post this week, delineate a creative employee benefits plan designed to keep your best employees satisfied and motivated.  Remember to include all of the links as well as references from the course text and other sources to support your rationale. 

Discussion 2

There are many issues affecting organizations today, such as employee retention, flexible work schedule, contingent workforce, talent management, and work-life balance. Select one of these issues and discuss how it integrates with at least two of the functional areas of HRM that you have learned about (training development, recruiting and selection, performance and evaluation, compensation and benefits, etc.). 

In your post, include at least three reasons why this issue is important to organizations.
