Acquire or Develop Talent: engaging in an acquired talent strategy shifts the responsibility of employees to human resources department to all managers throughout the organization. The process of attracting and retaining profitable employees is well promoted in the organization so this really increases more competitive relation between firms. But if you refer to the book if the company wants to achieve a full acquisition strategy then Tanglewood is going to have to acquire new talent. This is obviously the best strategy for Tanglewood due to its evident looking at the case. They are some inconsistency in the management styles between the first set of stores and the more recently acquired stores.
Individual differences were important in this variation as those who were more confident were less likely to conform. A limitation of Asch’s study is whether it is valid or not. Asking students to judge the length of lines is an insignificant task. On a more important task, conformity is likely to drop Asch’s findings may only tell us about conformity in special circumstances and the study also lacks mundane realism. Having said this, the study was still well controlled and systematic.
This shows why some sociologists may not use questionnaires as with a low response rate they can lack generalizability. It is argued that a higher response rate can be obtained if follow up questionnaires are sent out, if they are collected by hand or even if they sent out by email. However these methods tend to be either more time consuming or more costly. As well as this a great danger with low response rates is the fact that those that are returned are usually from people that aren’t fully employed or an isolated group of society and therefore means it lacks representativeness. Another reason why sociologists may not want to use questionnaires is their inflexibility.
The ability to tap into the global labor market will make the company more competitive by being able to offer competitive prices on products due to lower overhead cost associated with the offset in the labor cost. Attracting employees to join the company is the better option unless there is a management position that requires exceptional talent to fill the position. Relocation of prospective employees can be costly to the company and there is no guarantee that they will be long term employees of the company. With the company's plans for expansion I would recommend overstaffing. This will allow the company to stock pile talent for future
It can go globally, but it should be careful with culture of countries, and beware of other potential competitors. Before going globally, it should improve the company’s workforces, be better and offer best products and services. Attract or Relocate On my opinion, it is easier to bring the labor to the organization, than organization to labor for Tanglewood situation. Company has 12 regions, many region choices for people to live. It would be hard for Tanglewood to relocate.
You have plenty of locations and if you firmly believe in your company culture, than those who come work for you will stay. Overstaffing vs. understaffing Being a retail chain of stores I believe that during down season it would be better to be understaffed since you are not as large as other retailers and cannot afford to waste money. However, during high season you should overstaff since you want to maintain that great and comfortable experience for your customers that you are well known for. This is another reason for having a flexible workforce. Short vs. long-term focus In the case of short or long term focus when it comes to employment, it is my opinion that it depends on what you are looking for.

The last disadvantage I think will be a problem to the Dodge Clinic is employees seeking employment elsewhere because they do not feel there job is secure. You may have employees quit and go work for the competition because they feel that they are not valued enough. That can cause a chain reaction and a lot of other employees will
We have found ourselves at times to be guilty of the negatives that come with functional organization. We’ve spent so much time focusing on our particular function, that it’s harder for us to understand the goals of our co-worker’s functions, and would just write them off as not being a qualified employee because they don’t understand our particular function at work. This can help us take a step back and further analyze our organization’s structure and what we can do differently to help understand it better and contribute better to the organization’s overall
Sometimes businesses have vacancies because the business is getting busier or are expanding. What internal recruitment means Internal recruitment refers to the process of a candidate being selected from the existing workforce to take up a new job in the same organisation, perhaps as a promotion, or to provide career development opportunity, or to meet a specific or urgent organisational need. Advantages of this approach include the organisation's familiarity with the employee and their competencies. It can also be quicker and can have a lower cost to hire someone from another part of the same organisation. A temporary internal
