Read the following article on motivating employees:“Motivating People: Getting Beyond Money” by Dewhurst, Guthridge, and Mohr (2009)https://www.mckinsey.com/business-functions/organi...Review the Special Topics: 1) Motivation and Behavior 2) Compensation and Benefits and 3) Cost of Benefits as needed. The ScenarioAssume that you are the new CHRO of a 450 bed, metropolitan full-service hospital with over 1,800 employees -- Congratulations! In spite of ranking at the 50thpercentile for wages in the area (there are 3 other hospitals within 10 miles of your facility), morale among employees is at an all-time low. A recent employee survey revealed the poor morale as well as a high rate of burnout. (In fact, 30% of the nursing staff admitted to currently looking at other jobs.) Staff turnover during the past 2 years has been about twice the previous rate and absenteeism was up 50% over the same time period. The last COO introduced an employee “flex time” plan that saved the hospital 15% in wage costs by sending employees home when the patient census was low. (Of note, 70% of nurses managed to consistently work a 40-hour week last quarter.) This program gives all employees 3 days of personal time/sick time and 2 weeks of paid vacation.Current employee benefits include a small life insurance policy, a 401k plan (no matching) and health insurance for employees, but not spouses or dependents. No other insurance or benefits are currently offered. (80% of employees have a “significant other” and 40% have at least one child between 1 and 12 years old.)Demographics and more information:Current Workforce (excluding physicians) Boomers – 25% Gen X – 30% Millenials (Gen Y) – 30% Gen Z – 15%Minimum Wage Workers are 15% of the workforce and their current average pay rate is $10/hr. The majority of these workers are in food service, housekeeping, patient transport, clerical and medical assistants.The AssignmentAs the new CHRO (or Chief People Officer), you have been tasked with designing a total compensation program to fix the mess you have inherited. The hospital has given you a budget to work within and some options to choose from, which are summarized below.Item Description Relative Cost PointsWages Increase for all salaried and professional employees to 65th %-ile 3.5Min Wage Increase Min Wage to $12/hr 1.5 Increase Min Wage to $15/hr 3.0 (accompanied by a 5% lay-off)PTO Increase PTO to 7 days/yr 2.0 Increase to 10 days/yr 3.0 Extended FMLA (12 weeks paid) 2.5Insurance Add spouse/dependent coverage 2.5 Add life insurance upgrade 0.5401k Add 3% match 3.5 Add 6% match 5.0FSP Flex Spending Plan - includes Dental, optical, meds 1.5Education Tuition supplement - current semester only) 2.0 Student loan repayments - (Pay off 30% of balance, up to $12,000) 5.0Child Care Cover 30% of cost for employees 3.0 Offer On-site day care for all employees 5.0 Required: Describe in detail the total compensation package you will recommend to the CEO, keeping your total cost at or below 13.5 Relative Cost points. You are not allowed to create alternatives through extrapolation, e.g., “add 401k match at 4% for 3.5 Relative Cost points” nor propose items not listed above that bring with them any significant cost.Be certain to discuss why you have selected each of the compensation and benefit features included in your recommendation. This discussion could include the importance of the proposed feature to a group of employees (ex: nurses), a generation of employees (ex: Gen X), or the Hospital itself (ex: marketing, recruiting, etc.). Word limits – 1,000 word minimum, 2,200 word maximumI do NOT want you to follow strict APA guidelines, but you must pinpoint precisely what specifically you drew from your reference(s) to support the points you are making. In other words, you must link your reference(s) directly to your text. Examples follow below. Do NOT number pages, nor use a title page, abstract or Table of Contents. Do not use headers and footers or a running title.The main things required of you are 1) write in complete sentences; no bullet point lists or sentence fragments. 2) Avoid an abbreviation unless you explain it to your reader the first time you use it. 3) Use proper punctuation and grammar – “Let’s eat, Grandma” and “Let’s eat Grandma” do NOT mean the same thing! You are not texting your audience. Rather, you are making a semi-formal presentation to your CEO. 4) List your references under a “References” section at the end of the paper, alphabetized by the first author’s LAST name.You must provide at least two (2) references in support of your paper. You may cite our textbook or any of the materials I have provided in the course. However, at least one of your references must be from a source in the literature that you have researched. You do NOT need a reference for each point you make but, provide at least two references as described above.If you reference a webpage or internet source that doesn’t list an author, you may alphabetize the source in your list of references by the journal name (Wall Street Journal) or website name (Toenails.com) Be certain to cut and paste the link into your reference so others may also find it.

Assignment 2: Project MotorcyclesDue Week 4 and worth 250 pointsYou are a project manager for a medium-sized manufacturer of motorcycle cruisers. The engines in motorcycle cruisers, like the ones you manufacture, are usually categorized by size rather than the number of cylinders. In the past, your company has successfully manufactured and marketed the best-selling of these fuel-efficient cruisers that occupy the middleweight class. The rather nebulous middleweight class comprises motorcycles broadly ranging in engine size from 500 cubic centimeters, or cc, to 1000 cc. Executives at your company are now interested in motorcycles with larger motors and would eventually like to produce motorcycles in the touring class, specifically designed to excel at covering long distances with motors larger than 1100 cc. The proposed target market for these larger motorcycles consists of males between the ages of 35 and 60 in global markets. Price points for the larger motorcycles cover income ranges from $55,000 to $100,000. Management has decided that your company will meet the objectives stated herein within the next five (5) years. During the proposed changeover, the company will continue to manufacture the middleweight cruisers to serve its existing clientele.Write a six to eight (6-8) page paper in which you:Select one (1) of the types of project organization that would suit the development of the larger touring class motorcycles. Outline the process steps that your company would take in order to develop the motorcycle. Provide a rationale for the response.Recommend one (1) strategy to the senior executives that the organization might use to balance short- and long-term needs. Specify the crucial resources that you would need as a project manager to run the existing business interests at the same time that the business changes to the production of touring class motorcycles.Suggest the project management leadership style that is most conducive to overseeing the operation of the business growth plan.Recommend at least three (3) risk mitigation strategies to address project plan details that might be forgotten or overlooked. Justify the selection.Use at least three (3) quality references. Note: Wikipedia and other Websites do not quality as academic resources.Your assignment must follow these formatting requirements:Be typed, double spaced, using Times New Roman font (size 12), with one-inch margins on all sides; citations and references must follow APA or school-specific format. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.Include a cover page containing the title of the assignment, the student’s name, the professor’s name, the course title, and the date. The cover page and the reference page are not included in the required assignment page length.
