PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

PROGRAM PROPOSAL

Due Week 6, worth 175 points

As an MBA and leader, you must be able to present your management plans 

and leadership strategies to inform stakeholders and gain buy-in. For this 

assignment, you’ll practice this by developing a proposal for a professional 

development training program. The program centers on motivational strategies 

and how an emotional intelligence management approach would benefit 

department managers.

PREPARATION

Continue with the same organization you selected in Assignment 1. Imagine 

that the CEO has charged you, the task force leader, with researching emotional 

intelligence (EI) in order to propose a professional development program.

Your proposal should detail how a new incentive program, based on an EI man-

agement approach, will foster teamwork, strengthen interpersonal relationships, 

enhance communication, and increase overall performance. You need to help 

the CEO gain approval for this initiative. Your program’s proposal must include 

supporting research concerning how motivational strategies enhance job satis-

faction and team output.

ASSIGNMENT 2

Prepare for this assignment by identifying the resources you’ll use to create 

your proposal. You will need to provide at least two quality resources such as 

the course textbook, company website, business websites (CNBC, Bloomberg, 

etc.), resources from the Strayer Library, and/or outside sources.

Note:

Wikipedia and web-based blogs do not qualify as credible resources.

INSTRUCTIONS

Create a proposal (five to seven pages recommended) that includes the

following components:

           1.

EI and Motivation 

   Which of the EI building blocks would impact management’s ability to  

   enhance employee performance and job satisfaction? Based on your  

   research on motivational theory, describe how your task force would  

   utilize positive or negative reinforcement to influence the members of  

   the organization and resolve the issue. Provide examples to

   support your solution. 

           2.

EI and Social Skills and Decision Making

   Explain how the core concepts of emotional intelligence would       

   enhance the social skills and the decision-making efficacy

   of the management team. 

           3.

Effective Teams

   Describe the core attributes of an effective team and the strategies  

   you would implement to develop team dynamics that will benefit

   the organization.

           4.

Reward Systems

    Create an effective reward system for this organization. Determine the  

    strategies you would incorporate to motivate your employees

    and influence behavior. 

           5.

Executive Summary

    Prepare a one-page executive summary that you will present to the  

    CEO in an upcoming executive meeting. 

Note: 

An executive summary  

    is a condensed version of your full report. It should summarize briefly  

    all the main points in concise paragraphs. It should be written clearly  

    and should use language appropriate for the audience. 

PROFESSIONAL AND APA FORMATTING REQUIREMENTS

Your assignment must follow these general APA formatting requirements:

   Be typed (five to seven pages recommended, excluding cover and  

   reference pages), double-spaced, using Times New Roman font

   (size 12) with one-inch margins on all sides

   Include a References List

   Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the      

   student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date

   Include in-text citations following APA style, using attributive tags

   and signal verbs
