Hello Class,

When identifying the important concepts that are applicable to my profession and or career plans would be the Behaviorally Anchored Rating System, analytics, and the shaping of an HRMs performance.

The Behavioral Rating System which is better known as BARS is truly an important concept and will help with my future in many ways. This system will be a great format to have when dealing with my employees.  What I have learned about this is it will generate critical incidents, develop performance dimensions, reallocate incidents, scale the incidents, and develop the final instrument. This will help to keep my company on task and accountable.  I feel this is an added plus for any business to continue a structure and strong management.

Remembering the elements to a successful performance is through a strong HRM setting examples of excellence.  HRM shows strength by the hiring of their staff through cost-effective strategies.  Having the HRM strong in areas delivering excellence in their staff hiring, training, and well-rounded business model that stays in place for direction.  This is another form of direction that I plan to utilize with my up and coming business.   

The entire course of how it is geared will help with my direction on a successful thriving business.  I really enjoyed module 4, case how it delivered a successful company, Singapore Airlines that has been around for decades.  I could really relate with the customer service being number one keeping them as the number one airline of all airlines.  I have experienced flights with awesome customer service which is Hawaiian air. Of course from my experience Hawaiian air would be the only U.S airline with great customer service and I have flown many other airlines.

This course was very beneficial to me. The three concepts I use and have benefited me in my job were on-the-job-training (OJT), social medial in HR, and internships/apprenticeships.

            OJT is a concept I use daily in my work. Every new technician that arrives participates in OJT for at least their first 3 yrs in the military. We perform OJT daily as we teach not only all of the tasks associated with being a Mental Health Technician, but also being a military member. We utilize detailed training plans with progress documented in training records to ensure knowledge/task proficiency.

            Social media in HR is also something we use to monitor our troops. We discuss the importance of their representation as a military member and how posting unflattering images or statements can be detrimental to their career. We have had to punish individuals who posted pictures of them drinking while underaged or posting negative comments in regards to leadership.

            The first enlistment of a military member is treated as an internship/apprenticeship. You complete technical training, which varies from 6 weeks to 2 years, and then move to your first duty location where you are enrolled in upgrade training. After your first enlistment is when many decide to make the military a career or take the training and job experience earned and transition back out to the civilian sector.

            The future of talent management section helped to shape my perception of the role of HRM in the private sector. Technology has improved and continues to make great strides in how HRM recruits, train, and develop talent. Gone are the days of putting help wanted ads in the newspaper. Now you can post your job listing on a website and receive hundreds of resumes in a matter of hours. You can also create training programs that can be completed virtual, saving the company millions in expenses.

            Overall I enjoyed participating in this course, and I am looking forward to continuing my learning the Employment and Labor relations course.
