You will include a brief overview of a total rewards package and its purpose, as well as why it adds value to the company. Your manager will use these recommendations in their presentation to senior management.

The number and magnitude of data breaches have been increasing at retailers, banks, government agencies, and other institutions. The management team at your company has decided to develop plans for dealing with data security breaches. Because your company has many employees who telecommute and you employ a high percentage of contract and temporary employees, there are many factors to consider.

• What policies would you recommend to help ensure that insiders (including direct and indirect workers) do not steal sensitive corporate data or compromise the integrity of the computer system?
• Write a suggested computer and data access procedure when an employee (including direct and indirect workers) terminates. What steps should be taken to protect the companys IT data?

COMMUNITICATING CHANGE Discussion

Instructions I NEED THIS DISCUSSION POST ANSWERED

THE POST BELOW IS A DISCUSSION POST WITH THE TOPIC OF THE WEEK. I WILL ATTACH THIS WEEK’S LESSON, LINKS, DOCUMENTS, SCREEN SHOTS. PLEASE REFERENCE THE BOOK, MOSTLY.

THIS WEEKS POST TO ANSWER:

Communicating change before and after implementation can be challenging for organizations and, in some cases, more complex than implementing the change itself (Palmer et al., 2022). The primary challenge centers around the level of involvement employees have prior, during, and after a change(s) has taken place in an organization. There is a difference between disgruntled staff who are disengaged and actively disengaged. Therefore, leaders must address employee concerns, and allow for employee engagement throughout the change process. Answer the following questions in your initial discussion post:

• How comfortable are you with accepting unanticipated organizational changes?
• How might leaders support employees in adopting new behaviors aligned with organizational change efforts?
• Share an example where embracing a growth mindset helped you adapt to an organizational change.
