coffee and tea company. Java Corp. has had trouble retaining
valuable employees and the termination of a number of
12. employees for performance and conduct has resulted in
lawsuits. Prepare a memo to organizational management,
analyzing best practices in approaches and procedures
addressing each of these issues. Option 2
Choose an organization to use for this assessment. It can be
where you are currently employed or a company with which you
are familiar. It must be an organization that is researchable, as
you will need to gather and analyze information to complete the
assessment. You may use the same organization for the other
assessments.
If you choose the organization where you are currently
employed, please keep in mind that the analyses you make must
be based on facts that can be documented rather than your
personal opinion as an employee.
