It also enables current workers to learn to be self sufficient and to think like managers. By developing talent within the current organization you are showing your employees that you value their service and believe they are the best fit for the job. Because most employees will already have an understanding of what the culture of the company is supposed to be it will be easier to develop the sought after KSA’s. Hire Yourself or Outsource This is a tricky question, but in my opinion it makes sense to keep the recruiting and selection process entirely in-house because of the unique requirements for employees in this organization. Because this company’s goal is to maintain a strong culture across all stores it makes sense to continue to hire yourself so that you can be looking for the unique traits and KSA’s that will best integrate with the company and uphold the unique culture.
This break gives students a time to find themselves and find what truly inspires them. For many people this is to travel the worl and many others is to get into the workforce. On the other hand, many young people don’t have any idea what they want to do with the rest their lives so having this time to think and find themselves would be a great idea. Instead of wasting money paying for classes they possibly will never use in their job. During this period of time it would be a good idea to work on college applications and improve your odds to get in a good college.
Most employers prefer hiring and promoting employees who have college degrees. If you know that you have a better chance of getting promoted by having a degree, it would be worth your time and financial investment to obtain a college degree. If you have a degree, consider what skills you can learn in order to improve your job performance. Large corporations frequently offer free software, communication or management training. If your company does not offer courses, research classes being taught in your area; your company might subsidize the cost if you make a case for it.
Tanglewood prefers to promote from within, allowing the managerial employees to grow with the company, already experienced with the social and cultural environment. This limits the ability to hire an individual directly into a managerial position, but increases the loyalty of entry-level employees that are willing to stick it out until there are advancement opportunities.

The cost of completely re-staffing new employees would be tremendous. Although there may need to be some tweaking in the way that the management staff is allowed to run their respective departments, I feel that they have a solid base of pride working for Tanglewood. With the right training I feel it is beneficial for the company to develop the core talent that they have and fill in the gaps with new hires. Hire Yourself or Outsource Once again I feel that Tanglewood should stay “in house” when it comes to who is going to do the hiring. The first reason I say this is because that is what the managers and assistant managers are getting paid to do.
Having management experience helps you to have people to put into place but developing their talents in how Tanglewood does business creates the best for your company. Developing sales staff talent gives you the opportunity to be the first teacher they have and creates a future leadership team. This talent is taught by you and trained in your operations and procedures but also allowed to invest in the company with their creativity. This creates a long term bond and investment for both you and the employees. The next area would be deciding if Tanglewood is going to handle the

Either they go on to college or they go get a job. Either way they must do something to earn income if not going to school. Then reality hits, you end up working a job that you hate or your just finishing college and ready to start a career your going to love, one sound better than the other too me. That is why I believe that one should at least explore the option of extending there education so that they can exercise all their options. One way a higher education can benefit a person is the freedom it gives you to choose a career of your choice.
