In the every changing business of today, businesses sometimes look outside their business to hire management. There are a number advantages and disadvantages in hiring external hires. One advantage is they can provide an outside view and information the company will not normally have had if they had hired an internal applicant. A disadvantage of hiring external candidate is the person might need to be trained how things are done in the business. One of the biggest disadvantages is creating resentment from the current employees. I experienced the same kind of situation when I was an external hire for Walmart management. A number of the employees apply numerous times to the management program without receiving the promotion and a number …show more content…
Fred Luthans writes, “The behaviors that occur in an organization are vital to the communication process.” (Luthans, 2011, pg. 249) She will need to be able to communicate effectively with her employees. She will need to follow-up with her employees to make sure they understand what she said. She will want to have an open communication channel with her employees. Additionally, Jill can create an open door relationship with her employees where her employees can come to her with their problems and she will do her best to help them solve their problems. Jill will want to give feedback to her employees and ask for feedback from her employees. When I first started in management, I informed my employees I was always there to talk to them. If they came to with a question that I did not know the answer, I would make a point to find the answer and get back with them in a reasonable amount of time. Jill would benefit from having an interactive communication with her employees. Interactive communication will give the employees the chance to have a say and can help build a stronger relationship between Jill and her employees. The interactive communication would generate varying ideas that Jill might not have thought of to use. Interactive communication can be used to “task coordinate, problem solve, information sharing, and conflict resolution”. (Luthans, 2011, pg. 258) This type of communication is an active process that causes the people in the group to be active in the on-going conversation with each other and discuss things with one
The advantages of internal recruiting are that it strengthens employees’ morale, cost less, and reduces orientation and training time. The main disadvantage of internal recruiting is that your business may become stagnate with people that become used to the organizational structure and use the same way of thinking. The advantages of external recruiting are that it brings in fresh blood to the organization (new set of knowledge and skills) and it gets your company’s name out there; it serves as a form of advertisement. Some good practices for external recruiting are asking the Chamber of Commerce or the Convention & Visitor’s Bureau if you can review their old resumes to see if they have any leads. Other good practices are posting job specs on online websites or in local newspapers, attending job fairs, stealing from competitors, or using third-party recruiters (Woods p. 96-100). I would try to recruit employees from within for this hotel. This is because the hotel is in need of employee morale and the employees will be more comfortable with the changes I will be making with a manager and other employees that are familiar to them. After recruiting and collecting resumes, I would choose the best fit candidate by using the job descriptions and taking in account their experiences, personality attributes, checking references with their previous employers, and completing a background check on each candidate (Woods
Throughout humankind, communication has been used from sending firer signals to the pony express; communication is a very important part of our world today. Team Leader and member should always know their audience. Managers have all the tools necessaries to get their message across from meeting, email, office bulletin board, using FedEx. No matter how they chose to get the message across effective communication is important.
Cons of hiring internally however are that it creates new vacancy and these positions will eventually have to be filled. Another con is that employees who are not selected for a new position can be problematic or quit causing the company to lose money. In regards to skills needed to accomplish the tasks of the position new employees might not have the skills.
Promotion of managers from within who will serve as examples of success for others to follow.
Outsourcing has been around for many years. In this paper I will discuss some of the history of outsourcing, the goods things about outsourcing, and the bad things about outsourcing.
Effective communication is a powerful tool for supporting and accelerating organizational change. The investment of time, energy and resources in communication not only wins the hearts and minds of employees but inspires greater productivity with a direct and immediate impact on the bottom line.
Communication is the process of conveying information to each another using words, actions, or by writing the information down to be read by another person. Communication is something that most people do at some point each day, and is an important part of life especially in a working environment. “The concept of communication is an essential part of every profession, and it is required to foster and maintain healthy relationships”( Jasmine, 2009, para. 1).
Furthermore, excellent communication skills are essential for effective performance management [U.S. office of personnel management 2016]. The need for continuous dialogue is essential. Managers should create an atmosphere which is conducive for interaction and work. So that colleagues can be able to share information on the organization’s mission, values and objectives. This leads to efficient and effective performance which contributes in meeting the goals of the organisation
It can be quite beneficial to hire from within for several reasons. First, it creates good morale among employees. Javitch (2005) states that other employees are pleased when “one of their own" has been promoted to a management-level position. He thinks that increased morale among employees has a positive effect on productivity. second, when vacancies are filled by hiring from within, there is no recruitment cost.
Effective communication encompasses many concepts. For a leader to be effective, one must be able to build relationships between different parties. In order to build a good rapport, one must be able to recognize the strengths and weaknesses of those involved, and within oneself. Acknowledging these differences will allow for a better collaboration between team members. A leader must also have the ability to put conflict resolution theories into practice. Allowing differing points of view may challenge the original idea and will make for a more thorough decision making process. Although this may seem counterproductive, it actually ensures the best possible outcome. One must be consistent in the message presented yet be flexible, approachable and maintain a positive attitude. Allowing for different perspectives to be heard will allow team members to feel valued. This flexibility helps to solidify the concept that everyone is in this together; thus establishing an environment where all team members can have a buy-in. Encouraging team members to voice opinions and give feedback produces an atmosphere of constructive give-and-take; a real t...
People communicate for three purposes which are: to inform, persuade and entertain. Most managers use 60-80% of their time communicating in many ways which include: be present in meetings, listen and contribute in decision making and problem solve; compose various types of memos to inform and influence others about your viewpoints along with the services and products offered by one’s organization; presents information and influencing messages to large and small groups either face to face or virtual setting; explains and clarifies tasks and procedures
One’s career, school life, and even socializing are affected by communication. If you do not know how to communicate, you probably do not have many friends. Communication has been used since the days of the cavemen. When the cavemen learned to communicate they greatly increased their hunting potential. When they learned to communicate on the hunt and before the hunt, they caught much more game then when they were just randomly running after the animals with spears. In school, if teachers and students could not communicate well, how would anything ever get done? In a business, communication is the most important ingredient. Working at a corporation at a higher level, you deal with hundreds of important emails, meetings, phone calls, and other forms of communicating with your co-workers.
The first skill for managers to understand and practice is communications, because it is the foundation for all actions in the workplace and it allows the supervisor or manager an opportunity to build relationships with the overall workgroup without alienating anyone in the work environment (Roper, 2005). As a manager it is very important to be able to communicate effectively. As Robert Kent, former dean of Harvard Business School has said, “In business, communication is everything” (Blalock, 2005). The Wisconsin Business School Alumni Association recently reported that managers spend 75 percent to 80 percent of their time communicating (Blalock, 2005). Communication skills are critical for success in an organization. Successful managers communicate to where their targeted audience understands (Froschheiser, 2010). Managers need to give positive and negative feedback to their employees to let them know their strengths and weaknesses and where they n...
Some of the disadvantages hiring externally if good candidates are not chosen it can cause a bad outcome. Also internal candidates can be mad if they have ineffectively made the promotion. Another disadvantage is that it times time to train and training cost more money. Some of the dis advantages of hiring internally are that the company does not get any new experiences or ideas. Also this makes people in the workplace have rivalries which are not good for a company. This can also distract employees from doing their current tasks and
As in all aspects of personal and professional life, having effective communication is a key element of success. Effective communication can benefit your relationships with people. By conveying your message and integrating them as a member of the team and not just a subordinate leads to better production. By effectively communicating you can clearly define job responsibilities and expectations. The better you are able to communicate the less likely organizational turnover of personnel will occur. Supervisors and leaders in the professional workplace find that the most important factor in advancement and retain ability is effective communication. Senior level executives and human resources managers are stressing the importance of communication and providing more training for mid-level management. Emphasis is placed on communication being clear by being transmitted strongly.
