  • Organisational Behaviour—Consulting Assignment

    Addressing Organisational Problems at Tech Lab, Inc.

    Overview

    Your assignment is to use data and your knowledge of organisational behaviour to inform a series of recommendations to Tech Lab, who have hired you as an outside consultant to address two major problems plaguing their company. You will be assessed in terms of your ability to (a) present a professional report, (b) draw upon the organisational behaviour literature to provide evidence-based recommendations, (c) use data to inform your decisions, and (d) use creativity in developing and presenting these recommendations to enhance the extent to which Tech Lab is likely to use them. Particular emphasis will be placed on (b). The marking criteria are shown below.

    Identifying Top Talent

    In your meetings with Tech Lab, they have voiced concerns that they cannot seem to hire the right people for the job. They are concerned that their recent hires seem talented in the beginning but ultimately turn out to be mediocre performers, who either quit or have to be let go for poor performance. Tech Lab keeps track of the applicant data they collect prior to making a hiring decision and want to know if they can improve their employee selection decision-making in the future (see Tech Lab hiring data.sav datafile in Moodle). The current hiring process calls for applicants to meet education standards (a university degree or better), undergo on-site interviews (with three different managers), and complete an online cultural values test that assesses whether applicants personal values match the Tech Labs values. Tech Lab is planning to hire a large number of new data scientists using their current protocol, but wants to know how they can improve it. The job description for the data scientist role is attached (see Appendix A: Data Scientist job description).

    Your job is to recommend ways Tech Lab can improve their broken hiring system. In your recommendation, it is essential that you (a) provide guidance as to which procedures Tech Lab should keep (if any) and which procedures they should drop (if any), and (b) suggest other procedures that would improve their talent selection/hiring process. Your recommendations should be supported by evidence from the organisational behaviour literature (and your own analyses of the data provided). Guidance on data analysis is also attached (see Appendix B: Tips on Using Multiple Regression and ANOVA).

    Improving Satisfaction and Motivation

    Tech Lab has also set a company goal to improve satisfaction and motivation across its five main departments: accounting, human resources, research and development, consulting, and sales. An outside company recently conducted an employee satisfaction survey of Tech Labs employees, but the outside company did not analyse the data (see Tech Lab employee satisfaction data.sav in Moodle) or provide Tech Lab with results and insights on what to do to improve employee satisfaction and motivation. The survey asked employees to rate their satisfaction with their job overall, their coworkers, their supervisors, the job environment, and their pay and benefits. They have asked you to look at these data and offer a set of actionable recommendations as to what they should do to improve employee satisfaction and retention. It is essential that you (a) identify the departments and aspects of the job with the lowest levels of satisfaction, and (b) explain what specific steps can be taken to improve satisfaction and motivation across the company. Your recommendations should be supported by evidence from the organisational behaviour literature (and your own analyses of the data provided). Guidance on data analysis is also attached (see Appendix B: Tips on Using Multiple Regression and ANOVA).

    Things to Remember when Developing Your Recommendations

    • Your report should include the following:
    • A professional-looking title page
    • An executive summary (not counted in the word total)
    • Key recommendations (not to exceed 1,000 words):
    • Explain why you are recommending a course of action
    • Provide evidence for your recommendations
    • Refrain from making changes that are not improvements
    • Any relevant tables, charts, or analyses (not counted in the word total)
    • References pageall references should follow APA style guidelines: https://

    Please note that the text below in Section Fsaying that you will be marked down for incorrect analysesdoes not apply to this assignment. While every effort should be made to conduct the correct analyses, this is not a statistics course and you will not be marked down for performing incorrect analyses. However, you are expected to do as much with the data as you can, given the knowledge and resources at your disposal. The important thing is being able to make defensible recommendations that show knowledge of class material based on the analyses conducted.

    The marking rubric can be found at the end of this document. Please familiarize yourself with the rubric and read the attached notes carefully.

    This assessment contributes towards the achievement of the following stated module Learning Outcomes as highlighted below:

    1. Thomas Woolford

    Hi everyone,

    Designing lessons for English Language Learners requires us to acknowledge that these students face a double challenge: they must learn language and content at the same time. My approach to lesson design focuses on reducing the cognitive load of language decoding so students can access the academic content. To achieve this across multiple proficiency levels, I prioritize “scaffolding,” which involves putting in place temporary supports that are “gradually removed as students build proficiency”.

    To implement this using multi-sensory instruction, I would utilize the following two activities:

    1. Building background with real-life objects or concepts. In social studies, we would call these artifacts from history or even Primary Sources. For the opening of a lesson, specifically in social studies, I would use realia (real-life objects) to build background knowledge. As noted in the readings, “background knowledge is the hook that students hang new information on.

    The Activity: If teaching a unit on the Civil War, I could purchase relics on eBay like musket balls or coins. Students would then engage in a concept sort. This is where students are given the objects and asked to group them into categories based on shared characteristics. This forces them to engage in critical thinking and recognize patterns.

    Differentiation: This is inherently multi-sensory (tactile and visual). For entering/emerging students, I would ask them to simply group the objects by physical traits (color, texture) and label them with single vocabulary words I have pre-taught. For bridging/expanding students, I would ask them to sort the objects based on abstract categories (“Confederate vs. Union”) and justify their sorting in writing. This allows all students to engage with the same materials but at their own linguistic level.

    1. To support speaking skills, I would implement think-pair-share. This cooperative learning strategy allows students to process information individually before sharing, which lowers anxiety.

    The Activity: After a lecture or reading, I would pose an open-ended question.

    Differentiation: To ensure success for lower proficiency levels, I would provide sentence frames. A newcomer might receive a frame like, “I think ___because___.” An intermediate student might receive, “I agree with ______ because ______.” This provides the academic language they need to write or speak in complete sentences.

    The challenge in applying these strategies often lies in pacing. As Kristina Robertson (from the Colorin colorado! Website) advises, we should “only introduce one new thing at a time”. If the content is brand new and complex, I must ensure the language structures (like the sentence frames) are familiar, or vice versa, to avoid overwhelming the students.

    2. Lena Alabed

    Making lessons for English Language Learning requires flexibility with your planning because there could be various levels of ELLs in each classroom. In math, I try to focus my attention on making the material easy to understand through visuals, kinesthetic, and movement. I try these multisensory strategies instead of always providing verbal explanations. These types of differentiated strategies help students make a deeper connection with the content and the meaning of the standard and hopefully becoming less overwhelming for students.

    As a teacher, I love using visuals and hands-on modeling with manipulatives. For example, when teaching linear versus exponential functions, I have the students create a comparison chart that requires them to color code using graphs, formulas, and real-world examples. This helps students who have a lower language proficiency be able to identify key differences that help support them when solving math problems. Visuals for vocabulary support the concept of ELLs. Making this a class work assignment allows every student to participate and make the English Language Learners feel supported, and not isolated.

    Another activity that helps ELLs is structured partner talk with sentence frames. Using frames like The visual difference between the graphs is _____ I notice that your initial value and your y-intercept are the same color, this is because _____. This can be a turn and talk where students discuss their ideas and practicing their language and sentence structure before presenting their ideas to the class. This helps support oral language development while supporting content understanding.

    A challenge with lesson planning is being able to get all students to the same standard at the end of the unit. Providing rigor and support can be a challenge. Scaffolding helps this challenge, however, sometimes lowers the academic content. My goal is to teach a lesson where language becomes a bridge to learning and not a barrier.
