DIVISION 1

8. INTERNAL WORKINGS OF CHILDREN’S DIVISION 8
Internal Workings of Children’s Division

OL 499 Leadership Capstone
Internal Workings of Children’s Division
The Children’s Division has made both short and long term
investments over the course of its planning. The investments are
vital to the success of our non-profit organization. Staffing is
one of the areas where the division has concentrated on as it
plans to offer its services. This area also covers a major
expenditure on a budget of the organization. We plan to conduct
three more activities as we prepare to open our facility to the
public. The division intends to bring on board new employees,
leadership training and strengthen teamwork skills. The process
will ensure the children’s division remains effective in its
service delivery.
New Employee Onboarding for Children’s Division
During the process of hiring, we will communicate
characteristics of the jobs as a tool to get new employees
established. A Realistic Job Preview (RJP) is an enlisting
instrument used to interconnect both the good and bad aspects
of a job (OPM, n.d.). This will detail the obligations and a well-

9. rounded description of their jobs and how they are expected to
perform (See Appendix A). This will include the policies,
expectations and work environment. This will allow exchange
and psychological between the employees and employers.
Consequently, this will lead to workplace socialization as they
will be made familiar with their work place (Cunningham,
2015). A picnic will also be held every three months to
encourage the employees to socialize outside of work. The new
employees will attend a 2 hour new employee orientation at the
beginning of employment. New employee packets will be
handed out. During this orientation a history of the non-profit
and everything it does will be discussed as well as benefits.
Team Development
Teamwork is an essential part of any organization. There will be
a team development workshop that will last half a day.
Teamwork assessment and evaluation will aim at training the
employees on essential teamwork skills. Teamwork skills that
will be taught include brainstorming, organizing and planning
skills, see appendix B for schedule. Teamwork will be
highlighted as a major focus point of accomplishing goals.
Decision-making skills will also be taught during the
workshops. This skill is important when using personal
judgment in difficult situations (Woodcock, 2017). Other skills
will include communication and conflict resolution among
others. These skills are fundamental for the division to realize
its set goals.
Leadership Development
Strong leadership skills will be needed within the organization.
There will be two training days on leadership development
facilitated at an External Training Center (See appendix C).
These training camps will help instil essential leadership skills
and will be followed by leadership assessment and evaluation.
Good communication skills are important for any leader as they
will communicate organization goals, tasks and other matters to
the employees. Other skills will include motivational skills,
which is essential in boosting the morale of the employees

10. (Robertson, 2016). Delegation, positivity and other skills will
also be taught.
List of Assumptions
The above activities have been planned after consideration of
some assumptions. The division assumes that all the positions
will have been filled before the training camps and orientation
begin. It is also an assumption that the company will avail all
the necessary funds for these activities. It is also an assumption
that these training days will have positive impacts on the
employees and the organization as a whole. It is also assumed
that the other objectives of the training will be achieved and
more.
Conclusion
The Children’s division has come a long way in making plans in
its preparation. Some activities will start as we begin our
service to the public. These services will include preparation of
the new employees for the work ahead through realistic job
preview, new employee orientation, leadership workshops and
work place socialization. We will also be involved in teamwork
development activities that will help synch the employees with
themselves and the management. These activities include
workshops and camps for team and leadership development that
will impart necessary skills to the employees and the leaders.

Children’s Division Summary
Kari Six
Brenau University
Division Title: Children’s Division Summary
Mission Statement: Our mission is to provide affordable and
quality childcare programs that guarantee parents’ satisfaction,
as well as successful integration of children into the society
through continuous exposure to basic learning activities and
materials.
Who We Serve
The program is open to parents from all races, political, and

15. religious affiliation. Particularly, services will be extended to
parents with children within the age group of 5 to 12 years. This
includes children in the elementary schools and middle schools.
Special equipment for children with disability are also offered.
Jurisdiction that We Serve
The services are restricted to the residents of Clarke County,
Georgia. With over 21 public schools in the county, the facility
intends to engage eighteen (18) schools that are basically
elementary and middle schools. These schools include; Alps
Road Elementary School, Barnett Shoals Elementary School,
Barrow Elementary School, Burney-Harris-Lyons Middle
School, Chase Street Elementary School, Clarke Middle School,
Cleveland Road Elementary School, Could Middle School,
Fowler Drive Elementary School, Gaines Elementary School,
Hilsman Middle School, Howard B. Stroud Elementary School,
Judia Jackson Harris Elementary School, Oglethorpe Avenue
Elementary School, Timothy Elementary School, Whit Davis
Road Elementary School, Whitehead Road Elementary School,
and Winterville Elementary School.
In total, the children’s division targets to accommodate almost
1,000 children per day, representing just 1/10 of the total
number of children in the Clarke County Elementary and Middle
Schools.
What We Provide
The children’s division in our facility provides three main
categories of services that align with the regular demand and
the need among the Clarke County residents. These services
include; Tutoring, After School Care/Program, and Babysitting.
Tutoring service will range from extensive Math and Science
Lessons from qualified professionals. After school care services
on the other hand are designed to range from gymnastic lessons,
gym training, games, drawing and art practices, and other
outdoor activities such as bicycle riding. These services root
from the observation made by Vandell et al. (1999) that view
after school care programs as some of the most suitable avenues
where parents can get affordable and quality school services.

16. Especially when it comes to tutoring on subjects such as Math,
which tend to be more expensive when one opts for private
tutors. Vendell et al (199) further analyzed a wide array of after
school care programs and tutoring services that many schools
tend to offer across the country, among them emotional training,
gym facilities, among others (Appendix 1). Our division is thus
based on these observations to offer quality and affordable
services to the people of Clarke County.
As such, the facility intends to charge an average of $10 per
2-hour tutor session, and $4 per hour for the after school care
programs. The babysitting sessions are designated at a fee of $4
per hour, and $80 for 24 hours for those with special schedule.
Timeframe for the Services We Provide
Tutoring: Tutoring is scheduled to commence from 2.00 pm to
8.00 pm
After School Care/Programs: After school care programs are
scheduled to begin at 2.00 p.m. to 6.30pm. Parents shall be
advised to pick their parents not later than 6.30 p.m.
Babysitting: Babysitting services will be available throughout
the day. The services will be provided 24 hours a day, 7 days a
week. However, parents shall be encouraged to book in advance
in the event they require such extended babysitting services.
Division's Goals and Scope
In aligning with the division’s mission, the main goal of the
children’s division is to see stable growth, physical, mental, and
emotional, among children of Clarke County in Georgia. As
observed, creating an interactive space where children can
freely engage with the environment helps them create their own
knowledge, a precedence that facilitates quick learning among
children. Our division is thus equipped with a variety of
learning equipment that will enable children to learn freely, and
create their own knowledge, with our facilitators only providing
an enabling environment and support (NAEYC, n.d).

Feedback Comments:
In the final project plan is where you will integrate the
information you gathered in the prior three challenges into a
single project plan. You should utilize the peer feedback and
faculty feedback you received to improve the planning work you
did in the three challenges. You should use this chance to
update your prior work from those parts of the project and earn
a high score on this final project plan.
Submit an integrated 3 page Executive Summary for the entire
project: This is the part of the final project plan where you will
integrate the summaries from the prior three challenges. Make
sure to strike a balance between the different challenges. What

21. are the goals of the division and what the priories for
developing the division? What operational, staffing and
development plans are most important to reaching those goals?
What is the general sequence for rolling out these plans? Based
on your analyses, what are the potential opportunities and risks
for the project? What assumptions are you making that might
limit the information in your final project plan?
Update your supporting information for the three challenges:
Here you will revise or modify the supporting documentation
you provided in the appendices of the prior three challenges.
Also, you should select the most relevant documentation that
supports the integrated executive summary for the final project.
In other words, don’t just copy the prior documentation into this
part of the final plan. Update any missing documents and select
the documents that are relevant. The peer and faculty feedback
will be very useful here. Make sure to organize these documents
around each part of the plan as follows: Appendix – Operations;
Appendix – HR & Staffing; Appendix – Organizational
Development. These documents should be clear and be linked to
the info in the executive summary.
Part II (50 points): Project Reflection
OL499 - SimProj Final Project Reflection (Rubric).docx
Now that you’re wrapping the simulation project, write a
reflection of what you’ve learned from process of developing an
organization from an integrative perspective. Consider how this
broad approach to designing a division of a nonprofit
highlighted unique challenges and tradeoffs in decisions you
made about the organization. Address the following questions in
your reflection essay: What parts of the challenges were in your
comfort zone? Why? What were the most difficult parts of the
three challenges? why? What would you do to develop your
skills for this type of project planning? What tradeoffs did see
as you developed the plans for the nonprofit division? What is
the likely impact of these tradeoffs on the future success of the
division? What unique insights or lessons learned did you gain
from writing this broad organizational development plan?
