Hi Wilfred,
Don't forget that we have a lunch scheduled on Friday at the corner deli. It should be fun!
I know I've asked for some other mockups this week but could you also mockup samples of three different report types (detail, exception, and summary)? Mae is having a difficult time visualizing how one of her summary reports would look like. Also, Maddox Farley wants to know what the parts report will look like that he will be using several times a day.
How do you plan on distributing each of these reports when SIM is up and running?
If you could get me these samples soon, I'd appreciate it. I'm meeting with Mae and Maddox first thing on Thursday.
Thanks.

The developers want to know if this new application should run on a mobile platform. If so, they want to know if it should be created with responsive web design? What do you think would be the best and why?
I was wondering if prototyping this system might be more effective. What are the advantages and disadvantages to this approach?
Please give me your thoughts on these items by the end of the day today.
Thanks.
Carlie
Hi Wilfred,
After your presentation last week, the manager thinks an in-house solution is the way to go. Although our programmers have much experience with system integration and development, they have little experience with user design. You'll have to lay out all the pages of the system. For now, just create a hierarchical drawing of all the pages needed for this system. Think of the menu on the top of the screen and what you'd click on to move to the next screen.
Once you finish the hierarchy, I'll need you to draw out examples of a few of the screens. For example, show a screen with a menu, another which requests user input, one that has methods to contact us, and the last one as an informational page. The menu screen can be an opening page or even a page to decide on types of reports to run. The user input page can be one for any of the users, such as the appointment setters or technicians. Make sure that you outline all of the required validation rules for this input page. The informational page can either be a static page or results from a search. Make sure that you include navigation buttons on each of these example pages.
I think it would be a nice touch to include our logo on all of these screens.

Assignment #4 – Business 100
Name:
Background information needed to answer Question #1:
Review the organizational chart below and the different types of company hierarchies:
Key Learning: Organizational Structures: Tall versus Flat Hierarchies
A tall hierarchy is a traditional way to organize management. There are many levels of employment, and a few employees at each level report up to a manager at the next level. For example, at Starbucks, baristas report to store managers, and store managers report to regional managers, and regional managers report to executives at headquarters. This works really well for Starbucks! Baristas are carefully and consistently trained and supervised so that you can count on the same cup of coffee at any store. Employees who want to advance can work hard and make their way up the chain to gain more management responsibilities. Business is efficient and quality is consistent.
On the other hand, some businesses prefer a flat hierarchy. When Paul and Ari founded Zingerman’s Delicatessen, they wanted to make sure that every employee felt empowered to make decisions to improve the customer experience. In their service-oriented business, Paul and Ari’s employees get their jobs done in creative and collaborative ways. A flat hierarchy makes this possible.
Question 1: Organizational Structure
Based on your knowledge of hierarchies, would you say that this company has a tall hierarchy or a flat hierarchy and why?
· Tall Structure

Background information needed to answer Question #2:
Review how this company applies the Human Resources Cycle by reviewing the following memo:
“Hello, Head of HR here providing you a bit more insight into our process. I’ve included a flow chart on the high-level process (see below) but also wanted to provide a more detailed explanation. Our HR cycle begins with our recruiting department. We have campus recruiters who attend career fairs and develop relationships from select universities around the country. We also do a substantial amount of recruiting through LinkedIn, targeting professionals further along in their career with the backgrounds we look for. We then conduct phone screens with qualified candidates, followed by rigorous in-person interviews. We hire approximately 10% of the candidates we interview in-person. Once an employee comes on-board, our performance management system begins. Employees are required to write out goals and objectives after their first 30 days on the job. They have regular ongoing conversations with their direct managers, as well as with assigned mentors, regarding their performance. On or near their anniversary date, we conduct a formal performance review. In the review, we evaluate how the employee performed relative to the goals they mapped out for themselves, and relative to our expectations. Based on the result of the performance review, we make compensation adjustments and promotion decisions. Finally, when an employee do.
How Senior Leadership Engage/Disengage in NonprofitsTalentMap
Many Nonprofits eagerly measure employee engagement only to discover that the most important determinant of employee engagement is staff’s perception of the senior leadership team.

Did you know that some of the most flawed aspects of performance management have actually been around for centuries? Chinese civil servants had stack ranking in the third century. And officers in the Napoleonic wars were subject to 360 degree reviews.
Despite its long history, no one’s ever been thrilled about the performance management process. Even high-performing employees dislike reviews, and most managers certainly don’t enjoy giving them.
What can we do to make it less about “managing” performance and more about reinforcing behaviors and coaching our employees to even greater success? Which new practices are companies adopting and how effective are they?
Join Rob Schmitter, Solutions Architect and Melanie Schrems, Strategist and Consultant from Globoforce as they discuss the evolution of performance management and where its headed.

Employee Engagement : Moving the Needle on Quality
This lecture is designed to demonstrate how engaged employees positively impact quality. Sean will expand on how employees become engaged and stay engaged. He will use statistics to identify how engaged employees impact quality results and processes. All audience members will be equipped with talent solutions that they can immediately implement in their workplace to impact the organization’s human capital results and their quality-related bottom line performance.
Session Description:
TalentMap’s proven Best Practices are shared and elaborated on. What has TalentMap heard employees/employers from hundreds of corporations share with us? What do they need and want to become and stay engaged employees? How have the engagement elements been impacted by quality programs and implementation plans put in place by corporations? These questions and many more are addressed when Sean Fitzpatrick shares ideas, approaches and business practices on employee engagement and how it impacts corporate culture and quality. We will address:
-Statistics from TalentMap’s extensive database that identify how engaged employees improve on quality
-What TalentMap has learned and heard from employees when surveying their corporate culture that impacts quality
-How to implement action plans with accountabilities from an engagement survey
Once you have surveyed identify how you work on making the changes that will impact your corporate engagement levels:
-what are the quick wins
- plan for the strategic gains
- looking at impact vs. cost
- how you deliver what you have promised
- importance of measuring your programs
- who should be involved in the planning,delivery and implementation
Our Client will then address what they have experienced, learned and implemented on during and after their Employee Engagement survey. Once you have all the data and information how do you set priorities, how do you roll them out, who implements and how do you measure success, how you get the buy-in in a unionized environment?
What does it take to deliver an achievable recruiting and onboarding experience for the modern workforce? Understanding all the features and functionalities of your ATS is only one component. Success is born from using an effective change management approach to make sure you are ready for the right change in your organization.

Please read the description of the Religion ethnography carefully an.docxSusanaFurman449
Please read the description of the Religion ethnography carefully and then ask me in class to explain anything that isn't clear. You can also email me with questions.
At the end there is a short list of possible sites for the ethnography: Sikh, Islamic, Jewish, Catholic, Hindu, Buddhist. Shumei. There are other religions and many other sites. Bahai is an interesting religion but you have to be invited to attend by a member.
Mormon the same.
If you have access to a Santeria or similar ceremony, great!
To make the project worthwhile choose a site as different from your own background as you can.
If you have a Christian or Catholic background do not do your paper on any kind of Christian or Catholic service.
You are welcome to attend a non-English language service as long as you understand the language being used.
Be sure to okay your choice with me. Some places that don’t work for this project are Scientology, the Self Realization Fellowship, the Kabbalah Center, SGI Buddhist, Hare Krishna.
INSTRUCTIONS:
Attend a religious activity that you’re curious about and would like to explore.
You must attend a service, not simply visit a religious site.
Examples: a mosque, temple, synagogue, gurdwara.
You can probably find an interesting place of worship near where you live or work.
It’s always a good idea to phone or email the place of worship before you attend.
Research methods must include participant/observation and informal conversation. One slightly more formal interview is desirable.
Be absolutely sure to allow time to stay after the service for food, lunch, other refreshment, or informal gathering. This may well be the most important part of your experience and will enable you to answer the question, “What meaning does this place and this service have for the participants?
You must go some place you’ve never been to before. Do NOT choose your own tradition or somewhere you’re even a bit familiar with. Choose somewhere entirely new and different.
The important thing is to come to the service as an outsider, with the eyes and ears of an anthropologist and take note of everything. Use the skills you’ve learned in this class.
You can attend alone or with a co-researcher or two from the class. Best, you can be the guest(s) of a classmate or someone else you know and discuss the event with them. Invite a classmate or two to attend a service from your tradition.
Do not write about an event you attended in the past. But you can use past experiences for comparison and reflection.
It is almost never appropriate to jot down notes during a religious service. Better, write everything you remember immediately after the event. Get sufficient detail to write what anthropologist Clifford Geertz called “thick”, or rich description.
In writing your paper use terms we've discussed in class and think about connections to the reading we’ve done and films we’ve seen.

1) Culture as a Skyscraper Model and 2) Culture as a Map.
Come up with several television shows that serve as examples of “quality” programs and “trashy” programs. What characteristics determine their quality (plots, subject matter, themes, characters…)?
Is there anything you can think of that is “universally trashy”? Or universally in good taste?
On the whole, are Americans seen as having good taste? Why or why not? Is there a country/culture that always seems tasteful in its cultural products?

PRAISE FOR CRUCIAL CONVERSATIONS
"Relationships are the priority of life, and conversations are the
crucial element in profound caring of relationships. This book
helps us to think about what we really want to say. If you want
to succeed in both talking and listening, read this book."
-Dr. Lloyd J. Ogilvie, chaplain, United States Senate
"Important, lucid, and practical, Crucial Conversations is a
book that will make a difference in your life. Learn how to flour
ish in every difficult situation."
-Robert E. Quinn, ME Tracy Collegiate Professor of
OBHRM, University of Michigan Business School
"I was personally and professionally inspired by this book-and
I'm not easily impressed. In the fast-paced world of IT, the success
of our systems, and our business, depends on crucial conversations
we have every day. Unfortunately, because our environment is so
technical, far too often we forget about the 'human systems' that
make or break us. These skills are the missing foundation piece."
-Maureen Burke, manager of training,
Coca-Cola Enterprises, Inc.
"The book is compelling. Yes, I found myself in too many of their
examples of what not to do when caught in these worst-of-all
worlds situations! GET THIS BOOK, WHIP OUT A PEN AND
GET READY TO SCRIBBLE MARGIN NOTES FURIOUSLY,
AND PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE THE INVALUABLE
TOOLS THESE AUTHORS PRESENT. I know I did-and it
helped me salvage several difficult situations and repair my
damaged self-esteem in others. I will need another copy pretty
soon. as I'm wearing out the pages in this one!"
-James Belasco. best-selling author of Flight of the Buffalo,
l!l1trl!prl!l1eur. professor. und l!xl!cutive director of the Financial
Tilllrs Knowkdgc Diuloguc
"Crucial Conversations is the most useful self-help book I have
ever read. I'm awed by how insightful, readable, well organized,
and focused it is. I keep thinking: 'If only I had been exposed to
these dialogue skills 30 years ago ... '"
-John Hatch, founder, FINCA International
"One of the greatest tragedies is seeing someone with incredible
talent get derailed because he or she lacks some basic skills.
Crucial Conversations addresses the number one reason execu
tives derail, and it provides extremely helpful tools to operate in
a fast-paced, results-oriented environment."
-Karie A. Willyerd, chief talent officer, Solectron
"The book prescribes, with structure and wit, a way to improve on
the most fundamental element of organizational learning and
growth-honest, unencumbered dialogue between individuals.
There are one or two of the many leadership/management
'thought' books on my shelf that are frayed and dog-eared from
use. Crucial Conversations will no doubt end up in the same con
dition."

Must Be a
hip-hop concert!!!!
attend a
hip-hop concert (in-person or virtual/recorded live concert on DVD or streaming platform) of your choice
THIS month.
After the concert, write an
objective review (1000 - 1500 words) of the concert detailing your experience.
Write A Review and include those questions!!!
The review should include:
1. The names of the performing groups/artists; the date and location of the performance.
2. Describe the setting. Is it a large hall or an intimate theater? What type of audience demographic is there? Young or old? How do they respond to the music?
3. The different styles/genres of songs the artist(s) perform.
4. Use your notes and experience to describe the different musical elements (i.e. melody, harmony, timbre, technology, form, volume, etc.) you recognize in most (if not all) the songs/pieces.
5. Be sure to arrive on time to hear the
entire concert.
6. Attach a photo of the flyer, ticket, or webpage (or social media event) when you submit this assignment.
7. Describe your personal reaction to the concert. List reasons why you think it was successful or not. However, do not make this the center of your paper. It should be
one or two paragraphs at the end. Further, use
data to support your arguments about why it was successful or not successful. (e.g., How did people respond verbally and non-verbally? Was this based on your perception or was there a general consensus? If it is a consensus, then what facts do you have to support this?)
8. Try to do some background research on the genre or artist before and after you attend the concert. This is not a research paper, but if you use any information from any source (including the artist's website), you
must cite it both in-text and on a works-cited page.

On Sept. 29, 1982, three people died in the Chicago area after taking
cyanide-laced Tylenol at the outset of a poisoning spree that would claim seven
lives by Oct. 1. The case has never been solved, and so the lingering question —
why? — still haunts investigators.
Food and Drug Administration officials hypothesized that the killer bought
Extra-Strength Tylenol capsules over the counter, injected cyanide into the red
half of the capsules, resealed the bottles, and sneaked them back onto the shelves
of drug and grocery stores. The Illinois attorney general, on the other hand,
suspected a disgruntled employee on Tylenol’s factory line. In either case, it was a
sophisticated and ambitious undertaking with the seemingly pathological go.

They are all about Art and Politics in Renaissance Florence Period
1. Short Paper
Street corners, guild halls, government offices, and confraternity centers contained works of art that made the city of Florence a visual jewel at precisely the time of its emergence as a European cultural leader. In shared religious and secular spaces, people from the city of Florence commissioned altarpieces, chapels, buildings, textiles, all manner of objects – at home, interior spaces were animated with smaller-scale works, such as family portraits, birth trays, decorated pieces of furniture, all of which relied on patrons, artists, and audiences working with the beauty and power of sensory experience. Like people all over Europe, viewers believed in the power of images, and they shared an understanding of the persuasiveness of art and architecture. Florentines accepted the utterly vital role that art could play as a propagator of civic, corporate, religious, political and individual identity.
Select one or two of the test case studies [that is, talk about Cosimo or Lorenzo the Magnificent or Savonarola's impact on Florence or the new Republic under Soderini] from this Module on Art and Politics in Renaissance Florence, and explore your understanding of people in Florence, who was so alive to the power and communication possibilities in works of art, objects, and spaces throughout the city and beyond.

Embraces diversity and open dialogue as core values.
The leader's role is to provide direction and exercise authority.
Commands respect and admiration from those who follow you.
Moral principles and personal beliefs underpin all choices.
Seek out a wide range of perspectives (Cherry, 2020).
Behaviorist theory is the one that fits my style of leadership the best.
Being the change you wish to see in the world is crucial, in my opinion. According to Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, "Behavior is the mirror in which everyone exhibits their picture." My main priorities are the well-being of the team members and developing effective solutions via cooperative effort.

Life example
Working as a Management Analyst in the realm of government spending, I am frequently required to communicate with the Program Management Team of a third party firm. No collimated staff members prevent me from personally performing some of the work necessary to maintain an accurate external organization ledger. As a result, I need to be approachable, polite, and nice to my coworkers so that they would feel comfortable confiding in me and trusting me with their ideas. By consistently soliciting feedback from staff and management, I want to foster a culture of collaboration. This fosters innovation on the team and opens minds to new points of view.
Charismatic leadership style
They have excellent communication skills.
Passionate in furthering Their Cause.
Professionals have a lot of experience in their field.

Abstract
Background: Co-administration of multiple intravenous (IV) medicines down the
same lumen of an IV catheter is often necessary in the intensive care unit (ICU) while
ensuring medicine compatibility.
Aims and objectives: This study explores ICU nurses' views on the everyday practice
surrounding co-administration of multiple IV medicines down the same lumen.
Design: Qualitative study using focus group interviews.
Methods: Three focus groups were conducted with 20 ICU nurses across two hospi-
tals in the Thames Valley Critical Care Network, England. Participants' experience of
co-administration down the same lumen and means of assessing compatibility were
explored. All focus groups were recorded, transcribed verbatim, and analysed using
thematic analysis. Functional Resonance Analysis Method was used to provide a
visual representation of the co-administration process.
Results: Two key themes were identified as essential during the process of co-admin-
istration, namely, venous access and resources. Most nurses described insufficient
venous access and lack of compatibility data for commonly used medicines (eg, anal-
gesics and antibiotics) as particular challenges. Strategies such as obtaining additional
venous access, prioritizing infusions, and swapping line of infusion were used to man-
age IV administration pro.

Towards a multi-foci approach to

review of outcomes from different

Summary Using meta-analysis, we compare three attitudinal outcomes (i.e., job satisfaction, affective
commitment, and turnover intent), three behavioral outcomes (i.e., interpersonal deviance,
organizational deviance, and work performance), and four health-related outcomes (i.e.,
general health, depression, emotional exhaustion, and physical well being) of workplace
aggression from three different sources: Supervisors, co-workers, and outsiders. Results from
66 samples show that supervisor aggression has the strongest adverse effects across the
attitudinal and behavioral outcomes. Co-worker aggression had stronger effects than outsider
aggression on the attitudinal and behavioral outcomes, whereas there was no significant
difference between supervisor, co-worker, and outsider aggression for the majority of the
health-related outcomes. These results have implications for how workplace aggression is
conceptualized and measured, and we propose new research questions that emphasize a multi-
foci approach. Copyright # 2009 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
I admit that, before I was bullied, I couldn’t understand why employees would shy-away from doing
anything about it. When it happened to me, I felt trapped. I felt like either no one believed me or no
one cared. This bully was my direct boss and went out of his way to make me look and feel
incompetent. . . I dreaded going to work and cried myself to sleep every night. I was afraid of
losing my job because I started to question my abilities and didn’t think I’d find work elsewhere.

Judicial OpinionsOverview After the simulation, justices writ.docxSusanaFurman449
Judicial Opinions
Overview: After the simulation, justices write judicial opinions in reaction to the oral argument, merits briefs, conference, and draft opinions as well as the facts of the case, Constitution, and case law. Justices circulate drafts so they know how their colleagues plan to rule and why, and so they can respond to one another in their final judicial opinion draft.
Instructions: You are a Supreme Court justice preparing an opinion for announcement. Read the case materials: case hypothetical, merits briefs, and judicial opinion drafts of your colleagues, and review your notes from oral argument and conference. Write a majority opinion resolving the major legal question in light of the facts of the case, Constitution, and case law, as well as all case materials: merits briefs, oral argument, and the views of your colleagues (in conference and draft opinions). Opinions must support an argument, refute counterarguments, and respond to attorneys (oral argument and/or merits briefs), and fellow justices (conference and/or draft opinions).
Opinions should contain the following five elements, in the following order:
1. an introductory statement of the nature, procedural posture, and prior result of the case;
2. a statement of the issues to be decided;
3. a statement of the material facts;
4. a discussion of the governing legal principles and resolution of the issues; and
5. the disposition and necessary instructions.
Each of these is developed further below.
Assessment: Complete opinions must support an argument, refute counterarguments, and respond to attorneys (oral argument and/or merits briefs), and fellow justices (conference and/or draft opinions). Strong opinions will be well organized, logically argued, and well supported through reference to and explanation of Supreme Court decisions and legal principles. Assessment rests on how well you make use of, identify, and explain relevant course material. It also rests on staying in character and not diverging from your justice’s political ideology and/or judicial philosophy.
Introduction
The purpose of the Introduction is to orient the reader to the case. It should state briefly what the case is about, the legal subject matter, and the result. It may also cover some or all of the following:
1. The parties: The parties should be identified, if not in the Introduction, then early in the opinion, preferably by name, and names should be used consistently throughout. (The use of legal descriptions, such as “appellant” and “appellee,” tends to be confusing, especially in multi-party cases.)
2. The procedural and jurisdictional status: relevant prior proceedings, and how the case got before the court should be outlined.
Statement of issues
The statement of issues is the cornerstone of the opinion; how the issues are formulated determines which facts are material and what legal principles govern. Judges should not be bound by the attorneys’.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

Don't forget that we have a lunch scheduled on Friday at the

I know I've asked for some other mockups this week but could
you also mockup samples of three different report types (detail,
exception, and summary)? Mae is having a difficult time

Also, Maddox Farley wants to know what the parts report will
look like that he will be using several times a day.
How do you plan on distributing each of these reports when
SIM is up and running?
If you could get me these samples soon, I'd appreciate it. I'm
meeting with Mae and Maddox first thing on Thursday.
Thanks.

Think of the menu on the top of the screen and what you'd click
on to move to the next screen.
Once you finish the hierarchy, I'll need you to draw out
examples of a few of the screens. For example, show a screen
with a menu, another which requests user input, one that has
methods to contact us, and the last one as an informational
page. The menu screen can be an opening page or even a page to
decide on types of reports to run. The user input page can be
one for any of the users, such as the appointment setters or
technicians. Make sure that you outline all of the required
validation rules for this input page. The informational page can
either be a static page or results from a search. Make sure that
you include navigation buttons on each of these example pages.
I think it would be a nice touch to include our logo on all of
these screens.
MBA 687: Employee Engagement Surveys
Response Rate
The survey response rate is the first indication of the level of
employee engagement
in any organization. Of the 140 employees invited to take the
survey, 40 responded,
which is a response rate of 28.5%. As a rule, rates higher than
50% are best, while
rates lower than 40% may indicate trust problems within the
organization, lack of
faith in leadership, and employees’ reluctance to engage in
improvement efforts
until leadership demonstrates a clear commitment to change.

Title: Vice President
Job Summary
Leads departments and operations for an entire organization and
creates its overall vision,
mission, values, beliefs, and strategic goals. Directs and
evaluates other executive leaders'
work and the success of the organization. Maintains awareness
of external and internal
competitive landscapes, opportunities for expansion, customers,
markets, and new industry
developments and standards. Manages the strategic plan that
guides the direction of a
team's business and collaboratively works with the executive
management team to identify,
prioritize, and act upon company needs, focusing on integrati on
strategies to ensure optimal
efficiency. This position requires competencies such as analytic
and strategic thought, vision,
orientation to detail, customer focus, talent management,
resource management, and
leadership skills.
Vice President Self-Assessment:
As I reflect on this past year, I have driven business expansion
from startup and evaluated the
organization’s success. This past year, we identified ways to
increase revenue and decrease
costs by 10%. I analyzed financial reports with the accounting
manager, prepared new
operating budgets, and greenlit pilot projects using AI and
chatbots to compete in an
10. increasingly digital economy. My understanding of the external
factors affecting the
organization will help us think ahead and be ready for changes
in the market. My most
tremendous success was bridging the gap between the
company’s day-to-day running and
the board of directors' sweeping visions. Since taking on the
new role, I realize my leadership
skills come from years of experience and knowledge throughout
life. This wisdom has
impacted my judgments, decisions, and actions. I have learned
to focus on a clear purpose
and mission. I have consistently shown commitment and
motivation since joining the
company, and I want us to succeed. I am a leader who focuses
on meeting set deadlines and
objectives on time. I realize that I can be too controlling in a
project, and I don't give other
team members enough room to contribute or develop their ideas.
I must learn to give others
more space and let them take the initiative, too. Maybe I should
try harder to promote the
company's culture and values within my team. While I regularly
hold meetings with this in
mind, I should focus on boosting team spirit and collaboration. I
am often frustrated, and I
find it hard to communicate when faced with other leaders'
behaviors. Despite the challenges
we faced this past year, I am incredibly proud of what my team
and I have accomplished
during the past year.

14. Leads the sales and marketing functions, including strategic
planning, budgeting, forecasting,
and maintaining scalable processes that differentiate and
highlight the value proposition
from concept to execution for all business areas. Drives
profitable revenue and market share
growth through domestic and international marketing programs
to email, print/digital, CMS,
and social media platforms. This person is highly collaborative
and works cross-functionally
to devise campaigns that engage, inform, and motivate to raise
brand awareness. Manages
and coaches inside sales and outside sales teams.
Sales Manager Self-Assessment:
After taking the time to evaluate my performance, I would like
to highlight a few of my best
achievements from the past year. At the beginning of the period,
I spearheaded the launch of
our organization's first sales industry research report. My
promotional efforts helped secure
a speaking engagement at two national sales conferences, which
will help the company meet
its annual objective of increasing industry exposure and
promoting our customer value
proposition. Additionally, I assisted in overhauling our website
content with IT and helped
procure a new data partner. As a result, our paid search efforts’
ROI has increased by 120%
year over year and influenced $6 million in our latest service
line sales. Because of this year's
marketing strategy's ambitious nature, there were times when I
pushed my team hard to
perform at their best, put in extra hours, and deliver on highly
demanding projects. While I
would never compromise on my drive for results, I must take
15. the time to give more
thoughtful and considerate feedback to members of my team.
This quarter, I noticed that I could have delegated and
communicated strategic goals to our
team better. Passing more projects to the outside sales team will
help me become more
efficient while also providing them more opportunities for skill -
building and career
development. Additionally, I believe meeting with the VP, call
center, and sales team bi-
weekly instead of monthly will help improve cross-department
communication and ensure
marketing campaigns are better aligned with overall company
goals.
By the end of next quarter, my goal is to improve my cross-
cultural practices by taking an
online training session. I've been working more closely with the
call center team in the past
few months and want to collaborate more effectively to
understand and achieve our team
goals.

cost, and accounting) to understand what makes clients
profitable, ensures accurate
transaction records, evaluates financial processing, and controls
transaction processes.
Manages sub-ledger agreements (inventory, AR, sales, COGS)

accounting associates and works
with operating managers to ascertain their need for accounting
data.
Accounting Manager Self-Assessment:
After taking the time to evaluate my performance, I would like
to highlight a few of my best
achievements from the past year. At the beginning of the period,
I Initiated corrective actions
for maintaining accounting records, improving record accuracy
by 75%. The accounting team
implemented an accounting records maintenance system,
replacing the old, inefficient one. I
spearheaded our organization's new digital timekeeping system,
replacing the outdated
process and eliminating "paper" timekeeping. We continuously
met audit standards this
year, and this is for two years in a row, owing to exceptional
account management skills. This
quarter, I noticed that I have not been delegating enough work
to other team members and
have challenges communicating strategic goals to our team.
Passing more projects to the
accounting team will help me become more efficient while also
providing them more
opportunities for skill building and career development.
By the end of next quarter, my goal is to streamline the
20. accounting systems by implementing
standard operating procedures for each subsystem. It is
important not to build silos and
understand the big picture and our team goals. I am working on
transactional accounting
improvement, but I also think a strategic approach is necessary.
I have worked closely with
the customer success coordinator/team leader, but I would like
to address with top
leadership the communication breakdown, the top-down
approach, and ways to collaborate
more frequently. I can offer my professional opinion on where
best to align finance and
accounting programs to the strategic plan and on building action
plans to support overall
business success.

Title: Customer Success Manager
Job Summary
Manages the customer success function and provides input on
strategic customer plans to
help identify areas where the company can improve overall
service delivery, quality, and
excellence. Develops customer relationships that promote
retention and loyalty. Creates
department policies and procedures that optimize the customer
experience. This person has
the highest accountability level for call center supervision and
performs basic human
resource tasks such as hiring and training staff. Coaches the
customer success
coordinator/team leader in improving service efforts, scoring
performance, and developing
support strategies based on customer feedback.
24. Customer Success Manager Self-Assessment:
In the past year as a call center manager for the company, I've
increased the customer
satisfaction rate by 37% through overseeing day-to-day contact
center operations and
business planning, employee development, operational
efficiency, and service excellence. I
worked with the customer success coordinator to revise the
existing cold call script and
added a stronger value proposition, resulting in an increased
call time average. We started
interfacing closely with the sales department to ensure
alignment and spent a great deal of
time "QC-ing" or monitoring queues and tracking inbound call
performance. I coached our
customer success coordinator on performance metrics, including
inbound calls, call waiting,
and abandonment rates. We started working on creating a new
customer service training
manual and quality assurance form. I empowered the customer
success coordinator to work
with the accounting team on the new timekeeping
implementation.
After reflecting on my performance, I noticed that while my
ability to build rapport with
employees and customers helps me as a manager, I will need to
delegate more to the
customer success coordinator as the business grows. I began
serving as the backup trainer
and assisted in onboarding nine new representatives, all of
whom finished their first quarter
meeting performance standards. Given this experience and my
commitment to continued
growth, I think there is room for improvement. I want to shift
25. the call center culture to a
more employee-centric workplace where our employees are
happy, comfortable, and valued.
I am aware of the possibility that the various technological
advancements in AI voice
processing, customer analysis, and chatbots may improve
customer satisfaction; however, it
could also make some employees redundant. I am unsure if our
employees see leadership as
approachable and observant or sensitive to what the agent is
trying to tell us, even indirectly.
If we can fix this, we can improve business performance and
reduce turnover.

Customer Success Coordinator/Team Leader Commentary:
In the past year as lead agent in the call center for the company,
I've worked with my
manager to increase customer satisfaction rate by 37% through
revising the existing cold call
script, adding stronger value propositions, and focusing on
quality control QC-ing and agent
dashboards. I spent time with agents, communicating
performance expectations on inbound
calls, call waiting, and abandonment rates. I monitored calls
using our new quality assurance
form. I handled 15–20 customer requests to speak with a
supervisor per day and positively
resolved the issues. I assisted my manager in 36 employee
evaluations, detailing
observations of positive performance, opportunities for
improvement, and specific details of
supervisor calls taken for the week. I demonstrated the ability to
handle 50 or more calls a
day as the lead customer success agent, too. By decreasing my
talk time by 15 seconds per
call, I believe I can increase my call-per-hour rate by at least
10% next quarter without
negatively impacting customer satisfaction. I also worked with
the accounting manager and
her team to implement the new digital timekeeping system and
train all agents.
After reflecting on my performance, I noticed that while my
ability to work with employees at
30. all company levels is one of my best skills, I understand our
customers. I am ready to take on
more HR-related responsibilities. I began serving as the lead
customer success trainer and
helped my manager onboard nine new representatives. I would
like to understand the call
center's company goals and work with my manager to shift the
call center culture to a more
employee-centric workplace. Many call center workers have
been here less than two years
(27.5 %), and most call centers run an average 30–45%
turnover. Let's focus on retention. I
believe that additional sales training and education about our
products would help me
increase my up-selling performance in line with company
expectations. I want to discuss a
potential promotion to assistant customer success manager.
