Differences between diversity and multiculturalism as well as to discuss the pros and cons of diversity in the workplace

Description

Research Assignment 1: Week 3 Overview The subject of your research paper this week is to discuss the differences between diversity and multiculturalism as well as to discuss the pros and cons of diversity in the workplace. Remember, this is not an opinion piece but a scholarly work supported with credible references and sources from your research. Topics of discussion may include recruiting, selection, pay and benefits, retention, affirmative action, and any other areas that pertain to strategic HRM in the workplace. The research assignment this week is worth 20% of your final grade. Should be submitted as an MS Word attachment in either a .doc, .docx, or .rtf format. Your paper should be a minimum of eight (8) full pages of double spaced content in 12 point font. In addition, include a properly formatted APA cover page, an abstract, a properly formatted Introduction and Conclusion, and a minimum of 5 references to support your ideas, arguments, and opinions. Your paper should analyze all required readings and those from your research in the field of study. You are expected to conduct outside research aside from the text to support your ideas, arguments, and opinions. Discussions of key concepts, and a critical analysis of the research is required. Remember you are to critically analyze the data you find. Merely copying pasting and citing sources does not constitute scholarly writing. You must present ideas and positions and support or refute those arguments with credible references and sources. While assigned readings are important; you must conduct independent research of the subject matter and critically analyze the materials presented. References and sources should support your ideas, arguments, and opinions; and not be the basis of your paper. The assignment should be a scholarly paper that is designed to analyze and academically discuss what you have learned and how you can integrate the learning into an organization now and in the future. Be sure to list references in proper APA format and ensure that all listed references are also cited in text. References and citations must be congruent, meaning all listed sources are cited in text and cited sources are listed in the references section at the end of your paper. Your paper should adhere to APA formatting requirements (APA style cover page, in-text citations for each listed reference, and a reference page are required). Please make sure to proofread carefully. Grammar and spelling errors will affect the grading. It is very important that your critical analysis relates the course content to real-world applications from your work experiences or current events affecting HRM practices.

Research Paper on a business law case: Digital Realty Trust Inc. v. Somers No. 16-1276

Topic continued: The Supreme Court’s decision regarding whether the anti-retaliation provision of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act of 2010 (Dodd-Frank) covers only persons who have reported alleged securities violations to the SEC or whether it also includes persons who have made internal complaints without making a complaint to the SEC. The Second and Ninth Circuits held that the anti-retaliation provision applied to both categories of persons while the Fifth Circuit restricted the provision’s coverage to persons who filed complaints with the SEC. The rubric: used includes these assessments of your work, which are stated here just as a reminder of things to consider (not overlook) while writing your paper, not as a guarantee of any particular point total.7 A well-stated thesis – understandable? What is the author (the student) trying to do? 5 pts. Analysis of Topic – 40 pts. Clarity of Paper – 10 pts. Strong Conclusion? (Has the author attempted to prove anything? IF so, given the brevity of the paper, has he/she been successful) – 10 pts. Writing, Spelling, Punctuation – 20 pts. (See the tips on pages 13-15. You will receive fewer points on your paper for grammatical mistakes, especially ones that I specifically advise against on pages 13-15). Sources – Quality and Number (the author should cite at least nine different sources, unless there is an understandable reason – the sources should be of different types, and most should be recent in origin whenever practical and appropriate for the paper) – 15 pts. Legal reasoning is a stylized form of logical thinking. While not as rigorous as a mathematical proof, there are similarities. Typically any significant statement of fact or opinion that is not common knowledge to the average person, especially those advanced as truth, must be documented with a citation. So, it is not just quotations that require citations, but paraphrasing of another person’s work. And it therefore also makes sense that poorly documented papers receive lower grades than they otherwise would receive. Please include citations whenever appropriate. If in doubt, cite! I very much prefer footnotes over other formats. I don’t care which style of citation you use, as long as you are consistent and give sufficient information for finding the source. Unless you already have a strong preference, just use the format used in law journal articles – the Bluebook: A Uniform System of Citation. Some basic examples of how to cite the most common types of sources (e.g., court cases, law journal articles and newspaper articles, books, internet sources, and statutes), which generally do not change in citation format from one edition of the Bluebook to the next, are at https://www.rgnul.ac.in/PDF/f7ff0636-9075-47f2-8e17-a5ba7be7a3cf.pdf For a book, the source citation would be the author, title, date of publication, and page number. For an article, the source citation would include the author, the title, the name of the journal in which the article appears, the volume and page number where the information is found, and the date of publication. For a website, the source citation must include the name of the person or organization that takes responsibility for the information, the title or subject of the information, the precise URL page on which that specific piece of information is found, and the date on which it is accessed. Additional: Again, the most important things is to write a very good paper that is your work. But the above standards may give you some idea of what you should do. Turning It In and Monitoring the Grading The outline and the paper must be submitted electronically via the Internet. IT IS NO DEFENSE TO PLAGIARISM THAT YOU ACCIDENTALLY TURNED IN A DRAFT OR SOME OTHER WORK RATHER THAN THE WORK YOU INTENDED TO SUBMIT. PLEASE CHECK AND DOUBLE-CHECK YOUR SUBMISSION BOTH BEFORE AND AFTER YOU HAVE SUBMITTED IT. Also, if you took ideas or information from a source, it is always better to err on the side of citing that source repeatedly – even multiple times throughout your paper – than just to cite it a few times and make it appear for other parts of the paper (other sentences) that the work is yours when in fact the idea or information is something you got from that source. Also, note that even footnoting a source is insufficient when you are not simply paraphrasing the source’s contents but taking your wording came directly from that article: then you should cite the source AND also put the language in quotation marks. Please submit your term paper using Microsoft Word (either as a .doc file or a .docx file). If you do not have access to Microsoft Word you may submit your file as a PDF. However, Microsoft Word is much preferred. Please only submit the paper as one file. If you have a second file – e.g., a bibliography – please include that material into the one main file (in other words, into the Term Paper file itself).

NARRATIVE PAPER: What are factors and influencers that are contributing to the Ethical and Integrity dilemma and breakdown within employees in the Global Economy.

This assignment is to be exclusively a narrative paper;

What are factors and influencers that are contributing to the Ethical and Integrity dilemma and “breakdown” within employees in the Global Economy.

Research hints – In addition to situations similar to “Winning the Devil’s Bargain in the Document Sharing files; research the Economic challenges that are now existing in Greece, Turkey, Italy, England and to some degree in France. However, would be amiss if not including the current environment today of our (United States) legislatures and executive branches of our federal, state and local governments.

(These challenges to a large degree have evolved due to lack of ethics and integrity in the political representatives due to their drivers and messages to “win” the populace over with their political platforms). THIS IS NOT A POLITICAL STATEMENT BUT ONE MIGHT SEE SOME PARALLEL WITH THE POLITICAL PLATFORMS THAT ARE BEING PROJECTED BY US CANDIDTATES FOR THE UPCOMING ELECTIONS AND ESPECIALLY THOSE IN THE NEXT YEAR NOVEMBER ELECTIONS.

AND LET’S NOT LET THE MEDIA PLATFORMS “OFF THE HOOK”- do they really believe all of the stuff that they are putting out for “digestion” or acceptation. I try to explain this away as simply a factor of age; but have reach the point that I do not believe anyone or anything at all today.

It seems no one can tell the truth!!! However, I do have company in my observations. To add a little humor to the above; will insert a joke offered at a recent meeting of professors for all of the colleges; not just the College of Business. Do you know who the three biggest liars are? The answer: 1. Politicians; 2. Communication media (and especially those using “quantitative data” like all of the football analysts); and Business people (especially those in the executive ranks-ouch).

This assignment is to be exclusively a narrative paper; however, can have supporting graphs/charts in its appendix to support statements within the paper. The audience to receive this “paper” is the attendees at a Conference. The purpose of the paper is to be informative. Your purpose for presenting at this conference is to have the presentation eventually published.
