Assessment Item 2: Description

Aim

The aim of this assessment is to assess your ability to consider the strategic implementation of a large-scale (in this case, global) HR/Talent analytics implementation, and demonstrate your decision-making expertise in such situations.

Case Study

Boudreau, J.W. (2010). IBM’s Global Talent Management Strategy: The Vision of the Globally Integrated Enterprise. Case Study Part A. Society for Human Resource Management.

Instructions

Answer the following selection of case questions (“thorny dilemmas” on pp 12-14) to the best of your ability:

1. Investigating how much the system might be worth
2. Asking which employee groups to roll it out for
3. Asking which business unit(s) to roll it out in (put less emphasis on this)
4. Asking who should administrate the system
5. Investigating the transparency of the system (put less emphasis on this)

Your outputs for this assignment are both to produce a report of your answers totalling no more than 3,000 words as well as a 10-minute live summary presentation (typically PowerPoint or Google Slides type presentation).

In both the document and the presentation, provide specific choices and answers with respect to the thorny dilemmas, NOT alternative views without making choices.

Wherever possible, use research to back-up choices (with proper referencing in the document, referencing is not necessary in the presentation), but common sense is also applicable. In addition, do internet research on how this IBM system evolved since the case, which was set a long time ago. What happened with the system, and what lessons can you learn about applying such analytics systems?

Submission

Live presentation will be held during tutorial in Week 9, 2 August.

Submit your presentation slides and report (converted to PDF format) in the Dropbox in
Week 9, 2 August by 3pm.

Note

More details may be provided in a supplementary guide note or during tutorials during the semester.
