Risk Management Plan

The PCNet Project (B) **Dynamically Managing Residual Risk**

Assignment is based on the case study

This case was written by Christoph H. Loch, Professor of Technology and Operations Management at INSEAD. It is based on real events, but the names of all companies and participants have been disguised. Any similarity with existing companies is accidental. The case is intended to be used as a basis for class discussion rather than to illustrate the effective or ineffective handling of an administrative situation.

Note: The assignments depend on one another (last assignment attached) In this assignment, you will create a risk management plan. You have a budget of $100,000 and a timeline of six months for the plan. Please refer to the Risk Management Plan Template (Figure A-1 in Practical Project Risk Management) to create the plan.

Write an 8–10 page paper in which you:

1. Prepare the scope and objectives of the Risk Management Process section of the Risk Management Plan, based on the facts presented in the case study.

2. Determine the project size, based on the facts presented in the case study, and provide justification based on the Example Project Sizing Tool (Figure 3-4 in Practical Project Risk Management).

3. Select the risk tools and techniques, and complete the Risk Tools and Techniques section of the Risk Management Plan for both the qualitative and quantitative aspects of the project. Provide a rationale for the selections.

4. Develop the Risk Reviews and Reporting section of the Risk Management Plan, based on the project size previously determined.

5. Define the Probability and Impacts section of the Risk Management Plan, and justify the values assigned.

6. Define the Risk Thresholds section of the Risk Management Plan, and justify the values assigned.

7. Use at least three quality resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and similar websites do not qualify as quality resources.

This course requires the use of Strayer Writing Standards. For assistance and information, please refer to the Strayer Writing Standards link in the left-hand menu of your course. Check with your professor for any additional instructions.

The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is:

· Create a risk management plan that includes justification to support your rationale.

Resistance Risk Mitigation Intervention Table Overview

 

Supporting Document 2: Resistance Risk Mitigation Intervention Table

Overview

Using the same scenario from Identifying the Organizational Learning Issue, you realize that transitioning your organization to a learning environment may not be as easy as first imagined. You have encountered several resistance issues relating to the culture, psychological learning, organization structure, workforce commitment, and dissemination of knowledge. You decide to gather a decision-making team to assist in identifying the high or moderate resistance risks that may stop or slow down the process of this transition. The decision-making team must also recommend some mitigation intervention to lower the identified resistance risks to either moderate or low. For example, a high resistance risk can become moderate or low and moderate resistance risk can become low.

Your final product will be a table that identifies five issues related to the organization’s culture, psychological learning, organization structure, workforce commitment, and dissemination of knowledge. You must also provide a description of each resistance issue and rate the resistance risk before the mitigation intervention as either High (H) or Moderate (M). Then, you must provide a description of your team’s mitigation intervention and determine the resistance risk’s downgrade from High (H) to Moderate (M) or Low (L) and/or Moderate (M) to Low (L) after the mitigation intervention.
 

Instructions

Create a table in which you:

  1. Determine one challenge in the culture that may cause a major resistance to the transition from individual learning to organizational learning. Next, recommend one mitigation intervention to downgrade the identified resistance in your table. Provide a rationale for your selected mitigation intervention.
  2. Predict one psychological learning threat that may result from the transition and then provide one mitigation intervention to downgrade the identified resistance in your table. Provide a rationale for your selected mitigation intervention.
  3. Assess the current organization structure as it relates to the free flow of knowledge, then specify one issue that may cause a major resistance to the transition. Provide one mitigation intervention to downgrade the identified resistance in your table. Provide a rationale for your selected mitigation intervention.
  4. Critique the workforce commitment to this transition and predict one major resistance you may encounter. Next, provide a mitigation intervention to downgrade the identified resistance in your table. Provide a rationale for your selected mitigation intervention.
  5. Propose one dissemination of knowledge issue with the recipients’ ability to absorb the knowledge and comprehend it into action (that is, motivating the recipient to share knowledge). Next, provide one mitigation intervention to downgrade the identified resistance in your table. Provide a rationale for your selected mitigation intervention.
  6. Use the Resistance Risk Mitigation Intervention Table template located here. You may also use Microsoft Word or other equivalent software to create a table in an equivalent format for this supporting document.

The specific course learning outcome associated with this assignment is:

  • Create a table to identify transition resistance risks and an intervention to mitigate each.

Geodemographic Segmentation: Finding Your People

Geodemographics is a common and effective means to segment potential customers. Leveraging both demographic (e.g., gender, age, income, marital status) and psychographic (e.g., habits, hobbies, spending habits, values) data, households can be classified into segments, and the relative attractiveness of these segments for your product or service can be determined.

In this discussion forum, you’re going to take the geodemographic system Claritas (Links to an external site.) and determine which segment best describes you. Then, exploring map data, you’ll assess how common your segment is for where you live and where you could live among more people like yourself! Finally, with knowledge of your segment’s profile, you’re going to suggest a promotion for your internship brand targeted specifically to your segment.

3 question in HR chapter ( Human Resource Planning and Recruitment)

    

· Please read the Case “For Personal Financial advisors, A Small Staffing Plan with a Big Impact” at the end of Chapter 5 (page 224), “Human Resource Planning and Recruitment” available in your textbook Human Resource Management: Gaining A Competitive Advantage-Noe, Hollenbeck, Gerhart, Wright,11e., and answer the following questions:

Describe your awareness or lack of awareness of Uyghur experiences in Xinjiang

Instructions:

After completing this week\’s readings (i.e., a personal account of the Rwandan genocide) and the materials below, articulate your opinion of how current and future threats of ethnic genocide should be handled. 

Step 1: View the following two videos describing recent events in Xinjiang China:

https://www.pbs.org/video/china-power-and-prosperity-1570223945/Links to an external site.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VRS5cdcsUOcLinks to an external site.

Step 2: Read the follow article that provides a more personal account of events in Xinjiang (*a chance to hear an individual’s story, in detail). It also includes descriptions of historical and political context (*you should be able to read it without a subscription, just on a reduced screen).

https://www.newyorker.com/magazine/2021/04/12/surviving-the-crackdown-in-xinjiangLinks to an external site.

Step 3: Respond to the following prompt (1 page, single-spaced, 12 point font)

1. Articulate who you think is responsible for the Rwandan genocide? Colonial powers (i.e., through institutionalized discrimination)? Those who gave the orders? Those who carried out the orders? Those in Rwanda who failed to stop it? Those outside Rwanda who failed to stop it? You may assert a single choice or assert multiple layers of responsibility. Either way, pinpoint why you assign responsibility in the way(s) you do.

2.  Next, apply the question of responsibility to how the “world” should respond to present-day, unfolding events. Describe your reaction to the events with the Uyghurs in China using the following 3 prompts:

(1) Describe your awareness or lack of awareness of Uyghur experiences in Xinjiang before this exercise, include consideration for the role of media coverage and global conversation when responding to threats of genocide

(2) Describe three details that stood out to you in the above materials that shape your understanding of Uyghur experiences and/or China\’s position (i.e., what do you know now)

(3) Suggest strategies for responding to current threats faced the Uyghurs. This is an opportunity to weigh-in with your opinion.

Next, respond to the following questions reflecting on your role as a global citizen going forward.

Delve into your chosen area of interest:

  • Begin by identifying at least two organizations working in your area of interest. For example, if your topic is \’refugees\’ the International Rescue Committee is an active organization with a variety of information, service programs, etc. that you might want to be familiar with. If your topic is homelessness, the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development might be a good resource. For this question you want to research and identify where you can go for quality information and ways to get involved in your particular area of interest. You can certainly reference your textbook as a starting point if needed – relevant organizations are listed at the end of each topical chapter.
  • After exploring the organizations you identified and some of their current efforts, describe at least one way you can be actively involved – now!

 

Explore how YOUR own strengths and interests contribute to social/ human/ community wellbeing, as you define it.

  • Describe your current career interests?
  • Identify and describe at least 2 existing creative projects/campaigns that intersect social welfare with your own career interests! See examples below:

e.g., If you are interested in the field of architecture or design, these are two interesting examples of community-engagement that architects have undertaken (in other words, architects using their strengths to meet the world’s needs)
