Talent and Value Proposition

By Academic Wizard Blog

Talent and Value Proposition

Imagine being an HR manager at KLC company who has been tasked with creating a Talent and Value Proposition that focuses on creativity, annual budget savings, and possible labor reduction. Leadership has recently learned about a variety of automated solutions to assist with faster production, including artificial intelligence. This solution could shrink the current internal workforce by at least 40 percent in the first six months, which would lead to the termination of more than 100 employees. Leadership also thinks that these changes can lead to becoming more competitive in the field and contribute to the overall growth of the organization. Lastly, leadership is interested in exploring a “gig economy” within the company to potentially save even more money by working with non-employees.

Using this scenario, decide if you are going to advise leadership to implement the new ideas that were shared or if you are going to make an active attempt to save the current employee pool and find alternative ways to save money overall.

Talent and Value Proposition

Create a PowerPoint presentation with a minimum of six slides to present your decision on automated solutions to leadership that includes the following.

Assess the pros and cons associated with artificial intelligence and why it should or should not be considered for use within the company.,
Assess alternative ways to save money within the company to avoid having to terminate more than 100 employees.,
Evaluate if implementing a gig economy would benefit the organization.,
Evaluate the potential drawbacks of utilizing a gig economy with non-employees in lieu of current employees.,
Justify why you believe implementing automation solutions within the company is a good or bad choice based on your findings.,
Use at least five quality academic resources in this assignment. Note: Wikipedia and other websites do not quality academic resources.

Art& African Cultures

By Academic Wizard Blog

Art& African Cultures As discussed in Unit 1, art is a uniquely human endeavor, so I must say that “people” make art. But art takes many forms, including painting, drawing, sculpture, dance, photography, graphic design, cooking, embroidery, pottery, etc. As humans, we are born with an innate ability to create art, which is manifested early in the child who draws on the wall with crayons, colors in a coloring book, sculpts figures with Play-Doh, or makes finger paintings for art class in school. A little girl who dresses up in her mother’s clothes and plays tea party is an example of a child exercising her creative imagination to express her experiences and view of the world through acting. Art starts to become acquired when the person grows from childhood into older childhood and adolescence; if he wants to pursue an artistic outlet, he must do something more “serious” or “meaningful” to be taken seriously as an artist. At this point, art becomes “hard” in the sense that it’s not something that just anyone can do.

Art& African Cultures As discussed in Unit 1, art is a uniquely human endeavor, so I must say that “people” make art.

In African cultures, the artisans who made masks (figure 1), bowls, or pottery were valued for their practical skills in meeting society’s needs. In Western societies during the Middle Ages, artists were valued for their ability to paint murals, for example, that adorned cathedrals (decorative) and taught lessons from scripture (figure 2). In the modern world, artists are still valued for their ability to create decorative works of art. Still, the notion of art for art’s sake also seeks to exalt art and set it apart from any practical or didactic function (figure 3). Art& African Cultures

Figure 1

Figure 3

Who makes art? Do you think artists have innate ability or acquired skill (or both)?, How do artist’s roles change with different cultural considerations?, Support your answers with examples and provide any links or images that help in your explanations.

Art& African Cultures PART 2 Visual information is the key to social networking’s popularity. From digital cameras to Blackberries and iPhones, taking pictures has become an everyday experience for most of us. Respond to the following questions.

How often do you take pictures?,
What device do you usually use to take them?,
How much attention do you devote to the composition lighting or arrangement of your pictures?,
How do you use the images? ,
How can you improve your photos?

Research Paper: Topic Rationale Assignment

Topic – You will submit a topic with a 300-word rationale detailing why the topic is relevant to the course and its application to current family, faith, and the future. Include at least five supporting sources.

Select a topic for further research based on one of the aspects that may contradict traditional family values. Then present a course of action to defend traditional family values to include a comparison and contrast of the significant aspects of each that has been presented. There will need to be an analysis of research on each element which can be found in the Liberty Online Library (JFL).

This is not an abstract and is not an opinion based presentation. Please be sure that you are answering all questions below when selecting a topic. Research will be necessary for this project to be successful.

With research, the journals should share who is studied, who is impacted, what is the actual problem, etc… the 5 W’s – who, what, where, when, why and the H – How. Consider how you can frame questions as relevant to your topic.
- An example would be…Author (year) showed in research done that investigated certain number of subjects if such and such was actually a problem and found that….
- Note that the best way to find what you are looking for related to research is in the summary and conclusion of the research article as the body has great stuff but can be a bit hard to muddle through.
- This paper will have to be very much based on research.
- Be sure to frame one problem right from the start, then break out the contributing factors to the problem. It is not clear what one area you will be focusing on, but right from the start you are pointing out several things which is not clear what the main thesis of the paper is. Only that there are multiple sub-topics that you are going to write about.
- An example of a framed problem would be that Research shows that divorce impacts children by…. then actually state what the research says from there and frame the problem of divorce negatively impacting children and how. Or if you want to write about the impact of fatherless homes on children and talk about the definitions of fatherless home, after you share what the research says about the impact, then so be it. Whatever you choose to write about, please be sure to stick to one topic and develop your paper from there.
