Assignment Details

You have just been promoted from front-line supervisor to be one of the firm’s senior managers. During your business education, you learned that the primary role of a manager is to make good decisions. As a supervisor, you had frequently been making routine decisions, but you realize that decision making for the overall company can and will have far greater impact on the company and its employees. Your boss, the chief executive officer (CEO), realizes that you do not have much practice in this higher level, decision-making process and has asked you to write a memo describing your understanding of how to make important decisions. Your memo should address the following questions:

Describe at least 3 criteria that would determine whether the manager is making good decisions. What should be done to better assure that you are making a good decision? In the realm of decision making, what are assumptions? Rather than use a dictionary definition, cite several specific assumptions that would go with any real-life decision you have made or have seen made at a company at which you have worked. Given the importance of proper assumptions, your boss asked you to assess the accuracy of certain business assumptions and what could you do to test or confirm the credibility of them. The following were major assumptions for each firm: An automobile manufacturer’s assumption that the demand for SUVs would continue because gas prices would continue to rise An airline’s assumption that there was a need for an airline that provided no added amenities

Management Information Systems

/in /by

The following is the research project for ISM 200: Management Information Systems. This is an individual project and covers key material discussed in this course. This project has four components, due in Units 2, 4, 5, 6. Each is explained below. Through this research project, you will: 1) Research information systems used by specific business/industry for strategic or operational purposes 2) Construct a model of the information systems, assessing the business value gained, the necessary components, and the methods for connecting the business to consumers or other businesses. 3) Identify potential risks associated with implementation of this system, both in terms of technical concerns as well as business concerns. Assignment Overview In this course, you will examine the benefits of implementing information systems to support business strategic and operational initiatives. You will gain an understanding of core foundations of information systems: software, hardware, networks, databases, and the personnel required to ensure successful implementation of these systems. You will also gain an understanding of the inherent risks associated with implementing information systems for both businesses and consumers. For this project, you will conduct research to identify a software solution for a specific industry. You may begin with the industry, such as healthcare, and then identify the system, or you may begin with a type of solution, such as a Supply Chain Management System, and then identify the type of business in which it is used. The solution you select must support more than one function within an organization. For example, it would be acceptable to identify a Human Resource Enterprise solution, focusing on the numerous modules for which this can comprise. Individual solutions, such as payroll solution, are too narrow of the purpose of this project. You should use all resources available to you as you begin this search. You should choose an industry in which you have some personal experience with the business, such as healthcare, retail markets such as groceries. Once you have identified the solution and industry, conduct research about why a business would implement this type of solution. You are expected to identify three (3) to five (5) strategies that this solution would support within that industry. These should be strategies and not tactical actions. Here are examples of each from the healthcare industry. An example of a strategy would be to “Create a seamless integration between all healthcare providers and the patient to ensure patient information is available at the right time, the right place, and for the right purpose.” An example of a tactical plan would be to “automate the medical record.” A strategy brings focus to the initiative; a tactical plan is one component that enables the initiative. Unit 4 Research Project Core Components Identify the key information system components required to support this product, specifically identifying any detailed hardware requirements (servers, storage, mobile or stationary devices, etc.), software requirements (operating software and other third party software), database requirements, and key network requirements (internal and external) that will ensure the system can be used by the intended audience. Identify the detailed hardware and network specifications in an Excel spreadsheet. Do NOT submit the actual detailed specifications published by the company. In addition, identify the type of human resources required to support the implementation of this system and the amount of implementation labor required. You should make an effort to quantify all costs associated with all components and implementation. Write a brief paper describing the individual components, implementation requirements, and expected capital and operating expenses to be incurred. Some vendor sites will provide the above information at a high level. You should also research sites providing testimonials by businesses that have purchased the product; sites where products are contrasted in functionality and price; and any other site that enables the student to access the requested information. Be sure to cite relevant course materials and at least two relevant scholarly or professional journal articles written in the last 5 years to support the content of this paper.

The Indifferent Manager

/in , /by

Description

The efforts of Public Communications Inc., to implement total quality had exceeded expectations at two of its three plants. However, the third plant just didn’t seem to be able to get things off the ground. The plant manager, Merrill Stephens, was under a lot of pressure because his colleagues in the other two plants were succeeding and he was floundering. He didn’t know what the problem was, and he didn’t know how to find out. Merrill decided to call together a group of line employees and ask for their input. Immediately, he sensed their reticence. Clearly, they had something to say but didn’t want to say it. Finally, an employee who had been with the company for more than 20 years spoke up. “Mr. Stephens, we’re just going through the motions to keep corporate off your back,” he said. “We know you don’t buy this total quality nonsense.” Merrill had to admit that the employees were reading him like a book. Sure, he had followed the implementation guidelines to the letter. His executive team was the quality council.

Policies had been developed and deployed. Employees were working in teams, and training in the use of quality tools was being provided. The problem was that Merrill himself was just going through the motions. He didn’t really believe in total quality and had hoped it would turn out to be just one more corporate-mandated initiative that would fizzle and eventually go away. He had only four more years until retirement and didn’t need this in his life right now. His managers, middle managers, supervisors, and employees knew him and sensed his indifference and halfheartedness. Part of the organizational culture at this plant was that the employees took their lead from the plant manager. If Merrill was really behind an effort, they got behind it. If he wasn’t, they didn’t. When they accurately sensed his indifference to total quality, they responded accordingly. Please discuss: •The importance of organizational culture in regards to quality and the deployment of quality systems. •Where is the employee empowerment? Do their work ethics have to be reflective of their leader? Discuss your definition of empowerment and the rational for it within organizations, whether small or large. Do you think that the above mentioned employees feel inhibited by their manager and have gotten into a “group think” state of mind? What control does Merrill have in changing the perception of whether his employees feel as if they can forge ahead without his “blessing” and fell empowered as opposed to enlisted.? Do you think it is possible for Merrill to help his employees to overcome his “Shyness” in moving forward with change and compliance. How can he implement these changes and create a better working culture? Reflect upon your own experiences-Have you ever been involved in an effort that was half-hearted because the leader of the effort didn’t seem to be enthusiastic about it? If so, outline what happened? If not, discuss what it means and what chain of events can take place when the person in charge in a given situation sets the tone of moving in a certain direction. Did you feel a sense of empowerment if you stepped beyond your leader’s confinement?
