Description

Leaders address issues and propose solutions. As a leader, you’ll need to stay on top of events that may facilitate or hinder productivity. You must create and implement solutions to address these issues. This assignment exposes you to complex modern organizational challenges. The solutions you devise should reflect your learning and research of organizational and individual influences in the workplace.

PREPARATION 1. Select an organization in which current events have adversely affected productivity, requiring management to resolve an issue related to: corporate culture, managing diversity, leading teamwork, and developing motivational strategies. The organization should be one with which you are familiar — where you work now or have worked previously (business, nonprofit, government, or military). You may also consider other organizations in the news, such as Macy’s for the retail industry, United for the airline industry, Wells Fargo for the banking industry, etc. The focus is on finding solutions, but you should be somewhat familiar with the organization or industry. 2. Plan your research Use research from the course textbook, company website, business websites (CNBC, Bloomberg, etc.), resources from the Strayer Library, or outside resources to develop solutions to the following questions as they relate to corporate culture, managing diversity, leading teamwork, and developing motivational strategies to achieve the organization's goals and objectives. Your recommendations must be fully articulated and supported with appropriate detail and sources. Note: Wikipedia and web-based blogs do not qualify as credible resources.

INSTRUCTIONS Imagine yourself as the task force committee leader at this organization. You have been tasked with analyzing hindrances to organizational efficiency. You must propose strategic solutions. Create a full report in which you do the following: 1. Describe the Organization and the Issue to Resolve Provide a brief description of the organization you selected. Present the organizational issue that adversely affected productivity and that you, the task force leader, will review and resolve. 2. Analyze Current Corporate Culture How has the current corporate culture facilitated the development of the current issue? Research the organization, dig into the culture, and analyze how it contributed to this issue. Hint: Review the mission and vision statements as well as the corporate website. 3. Identify Areas of Weakness What are the organization’s areas of weakness? Using your research on organizational behavior approaches to corporate culture, diversity, teamwork, and motivational strategies, identify areas of weakness.4. Propose Solutions What organizational practices would you modify? What solutions should your task force recommend to management? As the leader of the task force, identify the suggestions you would present to the organization’s leadership with regard to modifying current organizational practices to resolve the issue. 5. Prepare an Executive Summary Summarize your recommendations and research findings in a one-page executive summary that you will present to the CEO in an upcoming executive meeting. Note: An executive summary is a condensed version of your full report. It should summarize briefly all the main points in concise paragraphs. It should be written clearly and should use language appropriate for the audience.

IT should be between 4 and 6 pages. Using 12 font, New Times Roman, double space throughout the paper. The Executive Summary should be in its own page.

Organization Overview and Problem Statement
The following paper is an analysis of the hindrances to organizational efficiency for
Macy’s Departmental Stores. The retail chain giant is headquartered in Cincinnati, Ohio in
the United States. It was incorporated in October 28, 1858 at New York City by Rowland
Hussey Macy. The current CEO of the company is Jeffrey Gennette. The issue that has been
causing organizational inefficiency at the institution is the poor morale of workers, which has
also resulted in low retention rates of workers and high turnover rates of the workers (Ortiz,
2015). In this regard, the company suffers from high costs of operations as well as poor
productivity due to poorly engaged workers and low worker volumes. In this regard, the
company is greatly losing out on the profits that it would have been enjoying had it been fully
engaged with its workers.
Therefore, the purpose of the following analysis is to review the cause or causes of the
low morale of workers at Macy’s Departmental stores, and examine how the company can
control and reduce it in order to boost the productivity of the workers. This is especially
considering the fact that when the workers have low morale, they are not fully engaged in the
productivity and functionality of the business and business activities. As a result, the
company ends up losing control of its market margins, in addition to losing its
competitiveness due to poor engagement of the workers. This is not forgetting the high costs
of operations brought about by the low morale of workers at the company.
