HRM consist of numerous activities. What areas were illustrated by Sam’s schedule on this particular day?
As Sam is driving to work, he begins to go over his days worth or work in his mind, using the management by objectives program. As soon as he entered the parking lot and saw Al, his agenda was disrupted.
As this day progressed, there were multiple fires he attempted to put out, thus hindering his own personal goals. He was faced with the payroll issue immediately after speaking to Al in the parking lot (retention). Next were the office mail and the office supply order (manager), followed by the Plant Manager’s complaint about the Admin assistance (discipline). He had termination reports to process, the VP’s task he’s been sitting on, more payroll/rate change request, and lastly recruitment duties.
His list of interruptions continued throughout the day and he never accomplished what was required. In our text, it covers self-actualization and how feelings affect job performance. I think Sam’s current workload is overwhelming him. He’s overloaded and needs to focus on his time-management skills.
List the areas of ineffective management and time-robbers that are affecting Sam.
Sam needs to develop and manage his time by prioritizing his daily task; both personal and professional. Some tips include starting with a list of task, prioritize and rank each category, and stick to it.
Some of his time-robbers included all of the administrative duties such as opening mail and all of the phone calls. Delegating such duties would benefit the team. The scenario doesn’t mention an assistant, so I’ll assume he doesn’t have one. Perhaps he should request one from the VP? Some of his other time-robbers were the useless conversations and his unnecessary lunch break across town.
Discuss Sam’s career progress. Is he now promotable?
Sam is the prime example of today’s manager’s. The majority of corporations in today’s workplace use the catch phrase- “do
