To Plan, Design, Deliver, and Evaluate an Original Training Program

The topic I would like to write about is diversity within Amazon and Microsoft. Microsoft and Amazon have been known for being callous in setting performance measures. The Rank and Yank system used by the two Giants was a huge agony for their employees. However, with time pressure related to ethical and responsible management of HR has increased on both companies. The result was that both were forced to discard these practices., and many changes were made within both companies.

Amazon’s record has not generally been very good, when dealing with HR management. Both are known to be a white male dominated organizations. Despite trying their best Amazon and Microsoft haven’t been able to control the high turnover rate. There are other difficulties too that arise from poor HR management.” The focus must be on keeping the employees happy and satisfied to retain them longer” (Pratap A. HRM 02/2017).The problem with the management styles of Microsoft and Amazon is that even though they are well known companies, they have been very stiff in terms of performance management and talent development. This frequently leads to employee disengagement. Both the organizations have followed a performance-oriented strategy which also used to be the norm at Apple.
